At night, the Imperial Study.

The palace maid lit the lantern early, and the imperial study was brightly lit.

Jin Yantang, who was dressed in a light blue robe, sat in front of the bookcase, looking at the folds on the table, he couldn't help frowning slightly, and his eyes showed a tired look.

Fupu hurriedly brought him a cup of ginseng tea, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, you have not been able to rest today, so rest first." ”

Jin Yantang took the ginseng tea, took a sip lightly, and after closing the lid, he looked stunned and asked, "Did you send the pastries you received from Concubine Ning yesterday to Concubine Chen?" ”

Fupu hurriedly said: "It has been sent, Your Majesty, are you resting in Qiankun Palace today or ......?"

Jin Yantang's eyes moved slightly, and after glancing at Fupu, Fupu suddenly stopped talking.

At the same time, inside the elegant palace.

After separating from Mama Chen, Shang Kelan went back to the dormitory, Gardenia waited aside, and after a while, four palace maids walked in, Zhiqiu, Wenchun, Xiaoxia, and Late Winter.

"Slave and maid see Niangniang!"

Before they finished saluting, Shang Kelan looked at Zhiqiu and said, "What did you find out about asking you to go to the Tai Hospital to investigate today?" ”

Zhiqiu said respectfully: "Back to Niangniang's words, the slave maid went to the Tai Hospital to investigate, and the old lady who saw Concubine Ning yesterday said that the reason why Concubine Ning was poisoned was because she accidentally ate poppy husks, and according to the old lady's inspection, there were poppy husks in the box of pastries you gave to Concubine Ning. ”

When Shang Kelan heard this, she smiled indifferently and did not speak, and then she looked at Wen Chun again.

Wen Chun stood up and replied: "The slave maid went to Concubine Ning's bedroom today to monitor her every move, and as expected, there really is Concubine Ning Niangniang's person in the Tai Hospital!" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was suddenly surprised and looked at Wen Chun one after another.

Shang Kelan also raised her eyebrows and asked, "Can you see who that person is?" ”

Wen Chun said: "Niangniang, do you still remember to ask Concubine Ning for Imperial Doctor Li?" ”

Doctor Li?

Shang Kelan's mind flashed, and then she looked at Wen Chun: "Are you talking about the Imperial Doctor Li who was born in Meizhou and has been practicing medicine for generations, his name is Li Chenxiu?" ”

If she remembers correctly, Concubine Ning was also from Meizhou before entering the palace, so could there be any connection between the two?

Just as Shang Kelan was thinking, Wen Chun said with a solemn expression: "When the slave maid secretly inquired in Concubine Ning's dormitory today, she heard that Imperial Doctor Li took out a pack of poppy shells, and also told Concubine Ning not to use too much at a time, otherwise it is easy to hurt her body, and she will be addicted to poppies, and she is very worried about Concubine Ning. ”

Xiao Xia listened on the sidelines, and couldn't help but smack her tongue: "This Imperial Doctor Li is too concerned about Concubine Ning, right?" If His Majesty had known, wouldn't these two have to ......"

As she spoke, Xiaoxia made a movement to wipe her neck.

After getting the news that Wen Chun had inquired from Concubine Ning's bedroom, Shang Kelan smiled and did not speak, but looked at Late Winter.

Late winter said: "The slave maid went to the Jiaosifang today, and checked with the female official Yang of the Jiaosifang, and did not find anything unusual from Concubine Ning's clothes. ”

Finally, it was Xiaoxia's turn: "The slave maid went to the imperial dining room today to make a new pastry for that day, whether it is the steps or the materials, there is nothing abnormal, and the slave maid asked Mr. Li to see it, and Mr. Li also said that there was nothing unusual, and the pastry did not pass through other people's hands halfway, so the slave guessed that it was Concubine Ning herself who poisoned her!" ”

When Gardenia heard this, she couldn't help but glance at Xiaoxia.

Just now, Wen Chundu had already said that Concubine Ning and Imperial Physician Li were secretly plotting peace, and the poisoning must have been directed and acted by Concubine Ning!

I don't know what the purpose of the Queen Mother sent Mama Chen by her side, so Shang Kelan personally took Mama Chen to the Internal Affairs Office to pretend to handle the case, but in fact, she secretly sent Wen Chun, Xiaoxia, Zhiqiu and Late Winter to investigate the case everywhere.

Starting from food, clothing, housing and transportation, the problem lies in this "food", and it seems that Imperial Doctor Li is the key person in the whole case.

Thinking about it, Shang Kelan's eyes flashed slightly, and then she said to Xiaoxia: "Xiaoxia, you go and make the pastry that was given to Concubine Ning that day, remember, this time you have to put poppy shells, and in addition, you have to make a pastry without poppy shells." ”

Xiaoxia didn't understand what Shang Kelan meant, but she still obediently retreated.

Later, Shang Kelan asked Gardenia to polish her ink, she sat down in front of the bookcase, picked up a pen and wrote a letter, and then sealed the letter and handed it to Wen Chun.

Wen Chun took the letter, and before he could ask, Shang Kelan ordered: "Today you were too tired and accidentally suffered from heat stroke, and the female official Yuange asked you to rest in the palace for a few days, so you didn't go anywhere, understand?" ”

When everyone heard this, they were quite puzzled, Wen Chun's eyes flashed slightly, and he held the letter without saying a word.

After Shang Kelan finished speaking, she approached Wen Chun's ear and whispered: "Give this letter to my eldest brother until my eldest brother gives me a reply, and you can bring the letter back......

As she spoke, Shang Kelan paused, and then added to Wen Chun in a low voice: "If you dare to let Your Majesty see this letter, I will find someone to abolish your martial arts!" ”

As soon as these words came out, Wen Chun's face suddenly turned pale, he bowed his head respectfully and knelt on the ground, holding the letter in his hand tightly: "The slave maid obeys the instructions of the mother!" ”

Everyone didn't know what Shang Kelan said to Wen Chun, but Wen Chun reacted so much, for a while, everyone was silent, and there was a little doubt in their eyes.

Shang Kelan touched Wen Chun's face, bent her eyebrows and said with a slight smile: "This palace has always had clear rewards and punishments, take the sign of this palace and go to do something!" ”

Shang Kelan didn't tell everyone what she asked Wen Chun to do, and everyone saw Wen Chun take her identity token and go out with the envelope.

For Wen Chun, the most important thing is her martial arts, although her martial arts are not low, but they are her capital to save her life; If she hadn't threatened Wen Chun like this, she would definitely show this letter to Jin Yantang, after all, she was the person sent by Jin Yantang to her side!

Everyone knows that Gardenia is her most trusted personal maid, so she can't go anywhere without taking Gardenia, otherwise it will arouse the suspicion of others!

Thinking like this, Shang Kelan's eyes flashed slightly......

Just as he was about to wave away Zhiqiu and late winter, Xiaoxia suddenly walked in with a food box.

Gardenia asked, "Xiaoxia, why did you make the pastry after going out for a while?" ”

Xiaoxia shook her head, looked at this box of pastries, and couldn't help but say weirdly: "No, the slave maid just went to the imperial dining room on the way to meet a little eunuch, saying that it was this box of pastries sent by Father-in-law Fupu." ”

Sent by Fupu?

Shang Kelan was suspicious and asked, "What else did that person say to you?" ”

Xiaoxia thought about it for a while, and suddenly realized: "Oh yes, that person also said that this pastry was collected by Father-in-law Fupu from Concubine Ning's bedroom, and it was the physical evidence that you poisoned!" ”

Suddenly, Shang Kelan's hand holding the champa couldn't help but move slightly: Fupu is a general manager, and it is impossible to put his leisure on her, could it be ...... Is this what Jin Yantang means?

Is he helping her destroy physical evidence?
