Chapter 493: Suspicion

Luoxia Palace.

"Master, lunch is ready."

Min Concubine sat on the chair in a daze, and was suddenly awakened by Zhiyun's call, but at this time, Min Concubine was not in the mood to eat, but asked Zhiyun.

"Weaving clouds, how is Gardenia now."

"If you go back to your master, you have already followed your master's instructions, and now Gardenia has probably been sent to the Criminal Division for processing."

Hearing the exact news, Concubine Min breathed a sigh of relief, and finally solved the things outside the steak, which can be regarded as eliminating a big worry in Concubine Min's heart.

"You serve the food, this palace is not in the mood to eat now."

Although she got the news that Gardenia had died, Concubine Min really couldn't be happy, after all, she was a slave who had been with her for many years, and to say that betrayal was to betray her directly.

"Master, don't be so sad about the loss of an unworthy slave."

"The slave maid asked Yu Shangfang to send some fresh fish and shrimp, all of which are dishes made according to the master's taste, and the master wants to taste more. According to the slave's hometown, this pregnant woman, eat more fish and shrimp, and the child will be extra smart. ”

Zhiyun saw that Concubine Min was worried, and hurriedly said.

"Can children who eat fish and shrimp be smart?"

"Then the fish and shrimp before the palace are worth eating?"

Concubine Min asked suspiciously, she had never heard this before, and she didn't know if it was true or not.

"Back to the master, the mothers of several ministers in the slave's hometown are pregnant and eat more fish and shrimp to give birth to such a smart son."

Zhiyun smiled and said.

"You little hoof, you are much more knowledgeable than Gardenia."

Concubine Min smiled and said, she was more intelligent than everyone expected the son she gave birth to.

She is now the highest-ranking concubine in this harem, and the child she gave birth to is the first since Zhao Yufeng ascended the throne.

If a prince is born, then this prince is extremely respectful, and countless honors are blessed with one person.

And the mother is expensive by her son, and her child is so noble, then it is possible for him to directly win the position of the middle palace.

Thinking of this, Concubine Min put all her previous worries behind her and said.

"Then bring it up and let Hongu taste it."

"Yes, master."

Zhiyun answered, and beckoned his subordinates to serve the fish and shrimp that had been prepared a long time ago.

"The taste of fresh fish and shrimp is really delicious enough, and it can be regarded as the most comfortable meal that this palace has eaten since Youxi."

After Concubine Min tasted these fish and shrimp, she smiled at Zhiyun and said.

"The master praised it, the slave maid only learned a trick and a half from his father since he was a child, and today there is such a delicious food for the master to enjoy, it is all thanks to these fresh ingredients sent by the imperial dining room."

Zhiyun bowed slightly to Concubine Min and said.

"Well, from now on, this palace will eat this fresh fish and shrimp every day, you go and talk to the eunuch in charge of the imperial dining room."

Concubine Min instructed Zhiyun Dao that she had eaten some fish and shrimp more or less before, but this was the first time that Concubine Min knew that eating fish and shrimp had such an effect.

Sure enough, this maid also has to know some knowledge and common sense, so she can bring a little fresh knowledge to herself.

Concubine Min secretly thought that the slightly depressed mood that had just lost Gardenia had disappeared.

"The emperor has arrived!"

"Greetings to Your Majesty!"

"Ah, why is Your Majesty here, the concubine has seen Your Majesty."

Concubine Min hurriedly put down the rice bowl in her hand and hurriedly saluted Zhao Yufeng.

Zhao Yufeng hurriedly stepped forward, picked up Concubine Min lightly, and said.

"Concubine Min, you are going to give birth soon, you don't have to salute after seeing me, the fetus is important."

Concubine Min smiled slightly, and the warmth in her eyes really made Zhao Yufeng look very comfortable.

"Then the concubine will be respectful, it is better to obey the fate."

"Zhiyun, serve tea to Your Majesty."

"Yes, master."

Zhiyun answered and went out.

"Concubine Min, I came here to ask you what the situation is with Gardenia."

As soon as she heard Zhao Yufeng mention Gardenia, Concubine Min's face instantly collapsed, she cried and mourned, wiped her eyes with a handkerchief, and said.

"Your Majesty, Gardenia...... Gardenia is afraid that she has fallen into the water. Ask yourself, on weekdays, the concubine treats her well, and the concubine really can't think of any reason why she will kill herself, and she also knows that committing suicide in the palace is a felony and will affect her family.

"So the concubine thinks she is a gardenia who has fallen into the water and the concubine is struggling......"

As she spoke, Concubine Min couldn't help but cry loudly.

Seeing this, Zhao Yufeng sighed deeply and said.

"Concubine Min, this maid can be replaced, you still don't have to be too sad."

"Your Majesty, Gardenia is the concubine's dowry maid, and she almost grew up with the concubine from childhood to adulthood."

As she spoke, Concubine Min couldn't stop choking again.

"Concubine Min, I will instruct the Internal Affairs Office to train a group of smart maids, and you will be free to choose when the time comes, you see."

Concubine Min also knew that it was really not worth it to be too sad for a slave, so Concubine Min still bowed slightly and agreed.

Zhao Yufeng pondered for a moment, and after sitting down beside Concubine Min, he opened his mouth quietly.

"Actually, I have one more thing to tell you about Concubine Min, it's still about Gardenia."

"Your Majesty, please say, is there something else wrong with Gardenia's death?"

Concubine Min's heart tightened and asked.

"Yes, since Gardenia's body was recovered, it was immediately sent to Qiaozuo, and the statement on the other side is that there is no water in Gardenia's stomach, so it can be seen that it was killed before it fell into the water."

Zhao Yufeng stared at Concubine Min's eyes and said this.

"How so...... How could Gardenia have been killed? ”

Concubine Min looked at Zhao Yufeng in disbelief, covered her mouth in surprise, and said.

"How much do you know about this matter, Concubine Min?"

"Back to Your Majesty, the concubine really doesn't know about it, it wasn't Gardenia on duty last night, and the concubine was also very lacking, and she had already fallen asleep early, and this morning, the concubine got the news that Gardenia drowned."

"This news came really suddenly, and the concubine also shook her head for a while, and it is difficult to accept this fact until now."

As she spoke, Concubine Min couldn't stop choking again.

Seeing this, Zhao Yufeng couldn't ask what else Concubine Min said, sighed deeply, and said.

"Concubine Min, don't be sad and affect yourself too much, and affect the prince in your belly."

"Yes, the concubines obey the holy decree."

Concubine Min couldn't show anything too much in front of Zhao Yufeng, so she bowed her head and agreed.

At this moment, Zhiyun Shi walked in and said.

"Master, the snow-capped mountains in the small kitchen are gone."

Concubine Min just glanced at Zhiyun lightly, and a trace of vicious light flashed in her eyes and did not let Zhao Yufeng beside her find out.

"This is His Majesty's favorite tea, if there is no palace in the palace, go to the Internal Affairs Office immediately to get it, and don't let Your Majesty not even drink a cup of hot tea here in the palace, how can it be so reasonable."

"Yes, master. The slave and maid went to the Ministry of Internal Affairs. ”

Zhiyun responded, and after saluting, he quickly walked out of Luoxia Palace.

After Zhiyun left Luoxia Palace, he didn't go in the direction of the Internal Affairs Mansion, but walked quickly towards Li Meiren's Mingjing Palace.

Li Meiren was sitting on a chair, and the palace maid on the side was gently rubbing her shoulders.

Zhiyun didn't let anyone report it, but walked in directly, and after seeing Li Meiren, he saluted and said.

"The slave has seen the master."

"Zhiyun, get up. How is Concubine Min's side doing now? ”

After Li Meiren raised her eyes and saw that it was Zhiyun, she asked lightly.

"Back to the master, the slave maid had already put oleander powder in the feed of the fish and shrimp eaten by Concubine Min. Today, the slave maid said to Concubine Min that pregnant women eating more fish and shrimp can also make the fetus in the womb more intelligent. Min Concubine said that she would eat fish and shrimp every day in the future. ”

Zhiyun said slowly, Li Meiren glanced at the palace maid beside her, and the palace maid hurriedly helped Li Meiren up gently and said.

"Before you did this, you didn't explain to Hongu what the oleander powder is for. Today, you can explain it to Hongu again. ”

"Yes, master. The oleander powder is highly toxic. Not only to the fetus, but also to the mother. ”

Li Meiren bowed slightly, smiled at Zhiyun and said.

"Your little hoof is very smart, and this palace didn't think of such a method."

"Then the master, the slave and maid will go back to the Xia Palace first. What the slave maid and Concubine Min said was that if they went to the Internal Affairs Office to get tea, if they came out for too long, I was afraid that Concubine Min would be suspicious. ”

"Well, you go back. After this is done, this palace will reward you heavily. ”

Li Meiren waved her hand, and after Zhiyun saluted, she retreated.

After Zhiyun left the Mingjing Palace, he hurried to the Internal Affairs Office to get the Snow Mountain Lancui, for fear that it would be too late to go back.

After getting the blue emerald of the snow mountain, Zhiyun was a little relieved, and immediately returned to Luoxia Palace, before Min Concubine was suspected of Gardenia eating inside and out, and now she has taken the place of Gardenia, it is inevitable that she may be suspected by Min Concubine again, so Zhiyun must be careful and cautious, otherwise everything he did before will be in vain.

But as soon as Zhiyun returned to Concubine Min's room, before entering the room, he heard a burst of painful screams.

Zhiyun hurriedly ran in, but saw Concubine Min falling to the ground in pain, but her hand was tightly holding the curtain.

"Master! Master! What happened to you? ”

"Zhiyun! Hongu ...... Bengong's stomach hurts badly, you go to the imperial doctor, Bengong may be about to give birth......"

This sudden situation also frightened Zhiyun, Zhiyun agreed, Zhiyun first ran to the door, called several other subordinates, and carried Concubine Min to the bed in good health, and then ran out quickly, ready to go to the hospital to ask for a doctor.

And Concubine Min is now lying on the bed, and the red heat in her lower body looks like she is about to give birth.
