It's been the fourth day of being trapped in the palace, and there has been no progress in searching for the emperor's next path.

In the past few days, Gan Peilin has been taking the opportunity to deliver meals and observing the queen's expression and behavior, she always feels that the queen is just anxious on the surface, but in fact, she still has a lot of thoughts to clean up the concubines in the palace.

There are only two possibilities for this situation. First, the queen's heart is not in the emperor at all. Second, this is simply a scene jointly designed by the emperor and queen. The purpose is to distinguish between loyalty and treachery.

Gan Peilin secretly thought about it so much, but he only had a decent smile on his face, watching the queen have lunch.

"Peilin, your craftsmanship is really good." Wen Xinlan couldn't help but sigh: "It's much better than what the kitchen lady in the palace makes." This palace has been worried about the emperor's safety these days, and I have always been unable to eat and taste, and it is also thanks to you that I have worked tirelessly to take care of the food and drink of this palace. It's really hard for you. ”

"The queen is serious. It is really an honor for the courtiers to be able to do their best for their mothers. Gan Peilin smiled and said, "What do you want to use for dinner?" The courtiers will go back and prepare later. ”

"Feel free." Wen Xinlan pursed her lips and smiled: "You can do it." ”

"Yes." Gan Peilin saluted her upright: "The courtier girl retired first." ”

"Okay." Wen Xinlan nodded at Bao Que.

Bao Que diligently sent Gan Peilin out. "Thanks to the eldest lady in the past few days, I saw that my mother had lost her appetite and lost a lot. I'm still worried about what to do. I didn't expect the eldest lady's craftsmanship to be liked by the mother, and the slave was really happy. ”

"Aunt Baoque praised it, Pei Lin is just a simple home-cooked meal. It's just that the queen doesn't dislike it. Gan Peilin wondered in her heart, her craftsmanship is really so good? The queen has never tasted anything, so why does she like her craft.

"Then the slave and maid will be sent here." Bao Que gently bent his knee at her.

"Auntie stays." Gan Peilin responded decently, and then slowly left with Liulan's hand.

"Does the eldest lady feel that something is wrong?" Spearurina asked.

"Yes." Gan Peilin nodded: "The queen especially likes to eat the dishes I make, and it feels strange." I'll check it again when I get back to it. ”

"Yes." Liulan always felt that something was wrong. The queen seemed to see the young lady several times a day. But she is the queen, a dignified lady of the main palace, how many concubines in the palace want to tie her up, and it is not easy to see her in private, but why does she have to see the young lady several times a day?

"My sister is back." Gan Wanyun hurriedly greeted her: "The queen mother has a ......?"

The word embarrassed, Gan Wanyun didn't say it.

But Gan Peilin understood what she meant, and said with a smile: "The queen mother praised me for my good craftsmanship." Sister, you can rest assured. ”

"The queen likes the delicacies made by her sister so much, and her sister is at ease." Gan Wanyun smiled and said, "I'm waiting for my sister to eat together." Go down. ”

The servant who was waiting in the inner chamber then withdrew.

Gan Wanyun cleaned up her face and asked in a low voice, "Sister, when you weren't there, I lied that I was hungry and went to the small kitchen for a turn." I always feel that something is wrong, but I can't say it. Originally, you had good intentions to send food to the queen, but the queen was too appreciative. The heart of defense is indispensable......"

"Let's all think of going together." Gan Peilin stared and said, "Liulan, you hurry up and check if there is anything wrong with the meal." I'll go to the kitchenette and check out what's wrong with it on the pretext of preparing dinner. ”

"Yes." Liulan prepared a silver needle early in the morning, just for a rainy day, but I didn't expect to use it.

The silver needle was hidden in her silver hairpin, and after checking that there was indeed no problem with the food on the table, she nodded: "The eldest lady and Concubine Yun can eat, there is nothing wrong here." ”

"That's good." Gan Wanyun sandwiched the dish for Gan Peilin: "Sister, don't blame me for being too cautious, although the dish is made by you, but after too many people's hands, I am afraid that there will be some omissions." ”

"Of course I know what you're thinking." Gan Peilin smiled and ate a mouthful of food, and suddenly felt that something was wrong. "The utensils used to bring food to the queen seem to be different from these."

"Yes." Gan Wanyun nodded: "These are the regulations of the concubines, of course they can't be used by the queen." The utensils you use to deliver meals every day are specially sent by Changning Palace. ”

"And what if those vessels are tampered with?" Liulan said this casually.

"yes." Gan Peilin was immediately uneasy. "If there's nothing wrong with the kitchen, there's nothing wrong with what we're eating. But the queen mother ate the food I sent one after another...... If there is a mistake, Nagan Mansion is afraid that it will suffer again. ”

"What then?" Gan Wanyun's face turned much paler: "Sister, the utensils were brought before the meal was delivered, and the food was sent over immediately." There are people from the queen mother watching the whole process, even if we want to test it, we can't. What's more, even if it weren't for the problems with those utensils, and the queen mother took the poison herself, then we would be at a loss for words. ”

"I was the last one to touch the meal. If you can't find any clues here, the queen will have to work on me. If it is really poisoned, it must be caught by the thief and dirty before it can be put into a real hammer, and the queen is far-sighted and will definitely make proper arrangements. Gan Peilin said while eating: "But I guess that this move can only be realized after finding the emperor." There should be no rush at this time. ”

"Sister, why does the emperor and the queen refuse to let go of Ganfu?" Gan Wanyun has repeatedly felt the suppression and even persecution of the imperial power, and Gan Mansion, which has always been loyal, is already in danger.

"These things can't be explained in one or two sentences." Gan Peilin served her vegetables: "You have to eat a little more, even if you don't have an appetite, you can't treat your body and children badly." ”

"That's what my sister said." Gan Wanyun lowered her head and ate slowly: "I just don't think it's worth it." Ganfu has never had a rebellious heart, but the emperor ......"

"There is such a thing as power, and of course those who have power want to control it in their own hands." Gan Peilin smiled gently: "Even if someone else becomes the emperor, it will not be the same." So let's just protect ourselves, don't think too much about other things. ”

Hearing her say this, a trace of suspicion flashed in Gan Wanyun's eyes: "Sister has a way?" ”

"Yes." Gan Peilin didn't say much, and served her vegetables again: "I am confident that the third aunt's illness will be better soon." When you are a month old, she will come to the palace to accompany you. If I see you always depressed like this, I don't know how distressed I will be. The affairs of Ganfu, with my father and grandmother, really don't have to worry about us. ”

"I can't help much, but my sister can." Gan Wanyun put down her chopsticks and held her hand: "My sister is smart and has the love of the Grand Duke, she will definitely be able to help Gan Fu turn evil into good fortune." ”

"Yes." Gan Peilin didn't say any more. But it is true that she has suffered a lot of losses in the palace. There must not be one more time.

The next day, Gan Peilin calculated the time, asked someone, and waited for Jiang Yu to appear on the road to the upper court.

Originally, she was not allowed to leave the harem without permission, let alone appear in front of the courtiers and break the rules. But she had to give Jiang Yu a wake-up call and tell her all her suspicions.

Who knew that Jiang Yu didn't wait, she actually waited for Ao Xuan.

Ao Xuan's heart trembled the moment she saw her standing under the tree.

"Why are you here?" He walked briskly. "You can't leave the harem without permission, if the queen investigates it, you will be in trouble."

Gan Peilin didn't say anything, and he didn't plan to leave. She has already come over, and it is not a loss not to see Jiang Yu.

"Is there something wrong with you?" Seeing that she was reluctant to leave, Ao Jue couldn't help but say more: "It's the same to tell me." ”

"How can it be the same." Gan Peilin wrinkled his brows: "I miss him, is it useful to meet him and tell you?" ”

These words shocked Ao Jue, he never knew that Gan Peilin would say such things so bluntly. He looked at her stunned, at a loss.

"Don't delay the second son." Gan Peilin meant: You hurry up, what are you still doing standing here. But Ao Xuan didn't move at all, as if he was in contact with her.

"Aren't you in a hurry to go to court?" Gan Peilin was displeased, and urged again.

"Hmm." Ao Xuan's face darkened, and he nodded slightly: "Then be careful yourself." ”

After saying this, he turned and walked away slowly.

It's still her sentence in her head, she misses him, is that so? Ao Xuan stopped unwillingly, turned his head, and found that Jiang Yu had already arrived.

Sometimes, a lot of things don't go as planned.

This time, he chose to leave in stride.

"Any news?" Gan Peilin frowned and asked Jiang Yu.

"Nope." Jiang Yu said truthfully: "I can't find it." ”

"Send someone to keep an eye on the Queen." Gan Peilin said firmly: "She must know where the emperor is." ”

"Okay." Jiang Yu didn't even ask, he chose to believe her. "Be careful yourself."

If this is the buckle made by the emperor, then Gan Peilin will definitely be in danger if he stays in the palace. "Why don't you find an excuse and I'll send you home?"

"Nope." Gan Peilin shook his head lightly: "What the emperor wants is the military power of Ganfu, and what he wants is your loyalty." He can't get what he wants, and I'm not safe anywhere. ”

"Yes." Jiang Yu admired her the most, knowing that there was danger, but she could still be so calm, calm and wise. "Don't worry, I'll protect you."

"Then you do me a favor." Gan Peilin grabbed his hand and quickly wrote a few words in his palm. Immediately, he stuffed his close-fitting purse into the palm of his hand.

Coincidentally, a courtier passed by, Gan Peilin smiled, sweet and gentle: "Then I will come here tomorrow and wait for you." ”

This sweet voice is sultry. Anyone passing by can't help but take a second look this way.

Of course, when he looked over, Gan Peilin had already turned around and ran away.

"The Metropolitan Governor is really a blessing."

Jiang Yurao snorted lightly: "It should be like this." ”
