The emperor left first, followed by a group of officials, and Gu Jiu walked at the back of the crowd and slowly fell into the line.

When the people from Miao Jiang passed by, Gu Jiu was a few steps faster and directly bumped into the lone person at the end.

"Sorry, are you alright?"

The silver ornaments on the woman's body were ringed with dingdong, and when she was hit, the jewelry collided and made a pleasant sound.

She was originally a little unhappy, but when she saw the apologetic and polite smile on Gu Jiu's face, she shook her head again and said, "It's okay." ”

It's just that when she was looking at Gu Jiu, the woman looked at it a few more times.

"I remember you, you are the wife of Lord Qin?"

Hearing the woman's inquiry, Gu Jiu pursed his lips and smiled, and said extremely shyly: "It's me." ”

When she said this, she bowed backwards, but accidentally dropped her veil on the ground.

And by coincidence, it landed at her feet.

Seeing that her demeanor was moderate and her smile was soft, the woman also had a good impression, because she smiled and said, "Your husband is very powerful." ”

When she said this, she leaned over and picked up the handkerchief for Gu Jiu and handed it to her: "Your handkerchief." ”

Gu Jiuyuan was about to pick it up, but when she saw that she picked it up for herself, she smiled more and more shyly: "Thank you, girl." ”

As she said this, she took the veil as she spoke.

The woman in front of her spoke delicately, which attracted the woman to look at her a few more times, and then smiled: "No thanks, it's a trivial matter." ”

I have long heard that the women of Xichu are delicate and beautiful, but now that I see it, it is indeed so. Not only are people soft, but even the handkerchiefs they use are extraordinarily soft.

When the woman thought of this, she heard someone calling to her not far away: "Tu Ji, why don't you come over quickly?" ”

Hearing someone shouting about herself, the woman who was called Tu Ji hurriedly glanced back, and saw that Miao Jiang's people were waiting for her in front of the carriage, and immediately responded, and immediately turned back to Gu Jiu and said, "I'll go first, you can go over quickly." ”

Hearing this, Gu Jiu nodded in response, and after thanking her again, he followed along.

The martial arts arena is not far from the palace, but if you walk this distance, it will take half an hour, so the nobles are all in a carriage.

Qin Zheng had already left before, presumably to see the unconscious Su Luo in advance.

The Lin family did not come today, and Gu Jiu was the only one in the carriage.

When she was able to get into the carriage, the smile on her face disappeared in an instant, and she folded the handkerchief that had just been touched by the woman and put it in her empty purse.

If there were outsiders in the car at this time, they would definitely see that there were several marks on the pure white handkerchief on that side.

The handkerchief is made of silk, and it is natural to be soft, but the reason why Tu Ji feels extraordinarily soft is because there are some medicinal powders that Gu Jiu temporarily added on it.

There wasn't much powder, but it was enough to keep what she wanted.

After getting to the gate of the palace, Gu Jiu did not enter the palace immediately, but called Baizhu and instructed softly: "You go to the plum garden now and give this purse to the master." After he read it, he asked Master to send me a letter for repair. ”

Today, the imperial doctor either didn't see the strangeness, or he didn't dare to say it in public.

If it's the latter, it's fine, but if it's the former, then it's a big problem.

Although there is no direct evidence, Gu Jiu suspects that those Miaojiang women are problematic.

Now she still has to participate in the palace banquet, so she can only let Baizhu go on a trip.

Hearing this, Bai Shu immediately nodded in response, and when he was about to leave, he was stopped by Gu Jiu again: "Let Su Che go with you." ”

Su Che knows martial arts, and if he follows, Gu Jiu can also rest assured.

Listening to Gu Jiu's instructions, Su Che agreed, and when the two of them went, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Hopefully, she's thinking too much.

……

Tonight's palace banquet is set up on the platform.

Tonight is August 16, although last night was the Mid-Autumn Festival, but tonight is a good time to enjoy the moon.

The platform is built very high, which is an excellent place to enjoy the scenery in the palace. every day

If you ignore that everyone who came tonight has a different purpose, then this is indeed a good place to see the scenery.

It's a pity that most of the people who come are not here to enjoy the scenery.

Because the emperor has not yet arrived, only the concubines and princesses are sitting on the throne at this time, and even the prince is not here.

However, several princesses were there, except for the eldest princess, the other two princesses were surrounded by people, and there was laughter.

The location of the Zhou family was not far from the Qin family, only one table apart, and Zhou Miao took advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention and secretly winked at Gu Jiu.

Seeing the little girl's quirky appearance, Gu Jiu couldn't help but smile, and motioned for her to sit down.

Seeing this, Zhou Miao immediately sat down obediently, and when she turned around, she saw that someone was going to toast Zhou Yao's, and immediately smiled and went to block the wine for her sister-in-law.

Gu Jiu retracted his gaze, but sighed imperceptibly.

The purse has already been sent out by Baizhu, Qin Zheng has not come yet, and before waiting for the master's reply, she always feels that there is some peace in her heart.

At this moment, there was sandalwood around him, Gu Jiu's expression suddenly lit up, but when he turned around, his smile instantly froze again, and he was a little embarrassed for a while.

A woman sat next to her, and when she saw her, she nodded at her in a particularly good-natured manner.

Gu Jiu came back to his senses at this time, quickly adjusted his smile, and said softly: "Mrs. Mingde is fine." ”

It was no one else who sat next to her, none other than Mrs. Mingde.

Hearing her greeting herself, Mrs. Mingde curled her lips and smiled, "Hello Mrs. Qin." ”

When she speaks, she always has just the right smile, and the people who look at her are like a spring breeze.

Most of the people invited to the banquet tonight were celebrities, and Mrs. Mingde was naturally among them.

It's just that Gu Jiu didn't expect that her position would be arranged next to the Qin family.

Earlier, when he heard those people talking about Mrs. Mingde's past experience, Gu Jiu admired this woman very much, but she was a little afraid of life, so when everyone else was greeting Mrs. Mingde, Gu Jiu never stepped forward.

But she didn't expect that the other party would sit directly beside her at this time!

Thinking of this, Gu Jiu's smile became more and more cramped, and he greeted her with a smile: "I have heard the name of Mrs. for a long time, and being able to sit at the same table with Mrs. today is really flattering to the younger generation." ”

Although she said polite words, she couldn't stand the sincerity of the little girl's eyebrows, and Mrs. Mingde, who saw it, also smiled and said, "Mrs. Qin is falsely praised, I am just an ordinary person." ”

The two sat and exchanged pleasantries for a while, and Mrs. Mingde spoke softly and slowly, which also calmed the anxiety in Gu Jiu's heart a lot.

……

The platform was extremely lively, because the emperor had not yet come, so everyone was chatting according to their social circles.

It's just that the emperor and them at this time, the atmosphere is not so harmonious.

In the huge side hall, the emperor's hand rested on the chair, and his expression was a little gloomy: "Didn't you say that you were drunk, why can't you wake up?" ”

In the inner room of the side hall, the envoy of North Vietnam, Su Luo, was sleeping.

In front of the emperor, except for Qin Zheng, there was only the imperial doctor left.

And now I am asking the doctor.

Hearing the displeasure in the emperor's tone, the imperial doctor couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, and immediately considered it and replied: "Back to the emperor, the sobering soup has been fed, and I will wake up after a while." ”

But what he said was really unconfident, so when the emperor asked him if he was serious, the imperial doctor only dared to promise: "If you can't wake up, then there is only the second possibility." ”

Now the North Vietnamese were waiting outside, and there were only a few of them in the palace, and they were not afraid of the serious consequences of telling the truth—anyway, it was serious enough.

As soon as he said this, the emperor's brows also frowned, and he asked, "What do you mean by this?" ”

When I was in the martial arts arena before, it wasn't the Tai Doctor himself who said it, Su Luo just drank too much.

Hearing this now, how do you feel that it seems that there is still a hidden secret?

Hearing this, the imperial doctor was stunned for a while, and finally told the truth: "There are no signs of any illness on his body, but it is not due to drunkenness. Today's stakes are very high, and Wechen does not dare to speculate. But there is one thing, if this decanting soup is useless, then it can only be ...... Poisoning. ”

When the last two words came out, the atmosphere instantly froze.

The emperor felt bad when he heard his words, but after listening to him at this time, he had a feeling that it was really like this: "Then you can be cured?" ”
