"Little master, it's good that you understand, the slave and maid look at it, that Lin Jieyu is not a good master, look at what she said today, she almost made it clear that you should go and make trouble with the emperor."

Yao Chuxi nodded and didn't say anything else.

Lin Jieyu has already figured out Lin Jieyu's move, knowing that she will not say something to the emperor, but she also wants to say something to annoy her.

As long as someone in the palace is pregnant, she will immediately become the target of public criticism, Yao Chuxi knows it in her heart, and she feels that there is no need to worry about these few words.

However, after returning to Yingxue Pavilion, she heard a shocking news.

Ding Zhou walked back quickly, stepped up the steps in two steps, and talked to Yao Chuxi under the corridor, looking just in a hurry, but Yao Chuxi obviously saw panic in his eyes.

"What's wrong? How did you panic? Yao Chuxi asked, holding Luo Yu's hand.

Ding Zhou's eyes looked left and right, and then tilted his head slightly towards the hall, and motioned for the master to go in and say.

Yao Chuxi saw what Ding Zhou meant, "It's raining, Father-in-law Ding is afraid that he is tired, go to the teahouse to get a pot of tea." ”

The two entered the hall, and Han Shanggong also rushed over from the west hall.

"Little Lord, the Lome is dead." Ding Zhou said,

"What!" Yao Chuxi changed from sitting to standing, "When is it?" ”

"I said I was poisoned last night."

"Poisoned?" Han Shanggong leaned over and asked, "How can you be poisoned?" ”

"I don't know about this, I thought it wasn't the truth when I heard others talk about it before, but I went to Baihua Pavilion to find out that Luo Meiren was poisoned yesterday, and it wasn't poisoned until today." Ding Zhou said to Han Shanggong.

Yao Chuxi listened on the side, sat down slowly on the table, looked straight in front of him with his eyes, and said, "I was poisoned last night?" ”

"The time when the real poison was this afternoon, I was talking to the palace maid, I had a headache and a stomach ache without warning, and the pain was rolling around, and the palace maid who was waiting for her had just left the palace to call the imperial doctor, and before she could get out of the Baihua Pavilion, the person was gone."

"It's so sudden, I'm afraid I sincerely want her to die, and I didn't even give a chance to say a word of advice." Han Shanggong said.

"Isn't it?" Ding Zhou said again, "When the slave went, the person had already been pulled out, and the seven orifices were bleeding, which was very scary." ”

"Why is this poison so powerful? Did you say what was poisonous? ”

"I didn't say it, I haven't found out for the time being, but I'm afraid that if I find out, I won't be able to reveal it to the back garden."

Ding sighed as he spoke.

"It's also a pity that the girl who just entered the palace, I'm afraid I'm scared." Yao Chuxi said.

"Can you not be frightened? I heard that she was walking in the courtyard when Luo Meiren was poisoned, and when she heard the palace maid shouting, she rushed to the east hall to see. ”

"Concubine Qing is really fast this time." Han Shanggong said, pouring a cup of warm water for his master, "I was afraid that it would be leaked out by Luo Meiren, or I was afraid that you would find out, so I killed her." ”

"Isn't this a big deal?" Yao Chuxi was a little puzzled: "In addition to covering up herself, what benefits can she get from killing Luo Meiren?" ”

"The slave pondered..."Ding Zhou leaned in and said, "Is Concubine Qing going to detain this dirty water on your body, little master?" ”

"Me?" Yao Chuxi's eyes widened, "What are you doing with me?" ”

"It's not a trivial matter to die in the back garden, the emperor will definitely summon someone to investigate thoroughly, although the death is just a concubine who is out of breath, but she was poisoned after all, it is inevitable that people will panic for a while, and they are afraid that the finger will be pointed at our Yingxue Pavilion."

"How do you get here?" Yao Chuxi couldn't believe it, "I didn't pursue anything about the jade pendant, she obviously met with Concubine Qing first, and she didn't let the palace maid listen to it, isn't Concubine Qing afraid that after killing Luo Meiren, Luo Meiren's palace maid will shake this matter out?" ”

"Concubine Qing doesn't need to be afraid." Han Shanggong interjected, "No one knows what the two of them said, after all, it was raining that day, and the palace people were far away, where did the palace maid who had lost her master dare to bite her Qing Concubine?" At that time, Concubine Qing only casually pulled out two lies to get rid of the suspicion, after all, there is no more evidence, Luo Meiren is dead again, and only Concubine Qing knows what she said in this life. ”

Yao Chuxi clenched her fists slightly, at this moment she knew how terrible Concubine Qing was, and she was really merciful when she didn't kill her in the Fule Palace last time.

"How's the new Miss Liang? Do you still live in Baihua Pavilion? Yao Chuxi asked.

"No, I have temporarily moved to Lilac Pavilion and live with the new girl Fu, so I shouldn't be moving back in a short time." Ding Zhou paused after saying this, raised his head and said, "There is something wrong with the slave remembering this, that Miss Liang said a word." ”

"What?"

"She said that the little eunuch who came to deliver dinner to Baihua Pavilion last night was not from Baihua Pavilion."

None of them spoke, all wondering what was wrong with their words.

The people in the back garden have to let the people in their yard go to the dining room to get food, Luo Meiren is afraid that she is worried every day these days, where do you dare to eat the meals sent by outsiders?

Could it be that her palace maid saw the wrong person and took the food box?

That's not right either.

This poison must have been in last night's dinner, but when did it get in? Yuan Shaoyu is in charge of the dining room, and it is impossible to do something to lose his head, so this poison has nothing to do with him. He is a dignified manager, and it is impossible for him to cook dishes for the unfavored concubines by himself, so his suspicion was picked up.

So who is left? The east hall fell silent for a moment.

"Is it possible that Concubine Qing arranged her own manpower in the dining room?" Yao Chuxi asked.

"That's nature." Han Shanggong said, "Concubine Qing, how can she say that she is also an old man in the palace, can there be no one under her hands?" ”

"How did the poison end up at dinner? The palace maid of Baihua Pavilion can't answer it at all when she sees that the person who delivers the meal is wrong! Yao Chuxi said that it was wrong to come to this point, "Unless, the palace maid is also Concubine Qing's person!" ”

Ding Zhou looked at his master, and slowly pondered what she had just said.

"Judging from the slaves, the palace maid should not be Concubine Qing's person, but Concubine Qing may have intimidated them later and forced them to do things for themselves."

Han Shanggong nodded, "In this way, Luo Meiren doesn't know who sent dinner, so she just thinks that she can eat with peace of mind as usual, where can she think that it is the hand of the personal palace maid who has the closest relationship with her on weekdays?" ”

"If it weren't for the person who delivered the meal was seen by Miss Liang, I'm afraid this matter would have been covered up!" Yao Chuxi said.

The Taihe Hall is also busy.

"How can a good person die?" Pan Zhenan and Duan Kui paced slowly under the corridor at the entrance of the main hall, "You go and check, I'll go back to the emperor first." ”

When entering the hall, Pan Zhenan was not as calm as usual, and people could see that something was wrong at a glance.

"Something?" The emperor was bowing his head and criticizing the fold, raised his eyes to look at him, and lowered his head and dipped in ink.

"Your Majesty, the Luo Mei of the Hundred Flowers Pavilion... He's dead. ”

The emperor was holding a wolf brush in his hand, and when he heard this, he paused, raised his head and stared at him, "When did it happen?" ”

"Just now." Pan Zhenan replied, "The person has been pulled out, and the cause of death... It's poisoned..."

"How can a good poison go down to the Hundred Flowers Pavilion?" The emperor looked down at the dragon case again, and then raised his head, "Is there anything wrong with Yingxue Pavilion?" ”

"Back to the emperor, Yingxue Pavilion is fine, and it has not been implicated, don't worry."

But where can the emperor put his mind at ease?

This poison poisoned Luo Meiren without warning, which was exactly the same as Yao Chuxi's miscarriage before, which made people unguardable.

This time Luo Meiren died, will the thief's hand reach out to Yao Chuxi next time?

The emperor didn't dare to think about it.

"You go and check, call someone to protect Yingxue Pavilion, tell me if there is anything in time, don't let Yao Meiren come out in the past two days, it's inconvenient for her to be pregnant with a child."

Faintly, the emperor always felt that the spearhead of the thief was rushing towards Yingxue Pavilion.

So how did the Lome die? Was she poisoned by mistake, or was she poisoned for Yao Chuxi? Or... What is the thief trying to hide?

After sorting out his troubled thoughts, the emperor closed the half-open fold and ordered the palace people to change his clothes.

Before dinner, the royal ran to the door of Yingxue Pavilion.

Just in time for Jiang Liu's meal, when he heard that the emperor was coming, a room of people knelt on the ground, and Yao Chuxi also saluted.

"Greetings to the emperor!"

The emperor entered the house and said, "Get up quickly." After speaking, the palace man took off the thin cloak from the emperor from behind him.

There is still some wind at night, so as not to let the emperor blow the wind and catch a cold, this thin cloak is a must.

"How's it going today?" The emperor asked.

Without waiting for the emperor to stretch out his hand, Yao Chuxi got up first, and replied with a light smile, "The concubine is not bad today." ”

When the emperor heard this, he stopped and looked at her, making sure that she felt good from the bottom of his heart, so he relieved his heart and turned to look at the dinner on the square table, "Crucian carp soup?" ”

Yao Chuxi nodded, and helped the emperor to sit down, "There are also stewed soft pig's trotters, baked crispy sesame cakes, here are small buns with fennel filling, as well as pork ribs and pigeon eggs." ”

"Fennel?" The emperor picked up a bun that was not very big, "It's really spring right now, and there are fennel, I remember that this fennel only came out in autumn, right?" ”

"There is spring, too, but there are fewer of them." Yao Chuxi said as he took a bowl of fragrant crucian carp soup and handed it to the emperor, "The more authentic ones you eat in autumn are now considered to relieve your hunger." ”

"I don't think you like meat very much, and you usually eat a lot of vegetarian dishes." The emperor said, and put a pigeon egg on her plate.

"Where is there who doesn't love meat?" Yao Chuxi said, "It's just that you can't eat meat every day, so you just borrow some vegetarian food to relieve your greasy?" ”

The emperor didn't say anything after hearing this.

I remember that when the Chen family was abolished, a dinner was full of big fish and meat, and the emperor was tired of eating.

Not only her, but the emperor eats in the Taihe Hall many times on weekdays, even if he goes to eat elsewhere, he asks for a few vegetarian dishes by name, and only here is Yao Chuxi really good to eat.
