After Shao Wanru came back from the eldest princess's mansion, he immediately sent someone to invite the chief housekeeper.

After the chief housekeeper sat down, he immediately told the picture he had seen in the Chengenhou Mansion before, and asked the chief housekeeper for advice.

The chief housekeeper frowned while listening to Shao Wanru's detailed description of the picture, and his face changed when he listened, so that Shao Wanru stopped and asked urgently: "Is it really the Queen Mother...... Mother feeding her eldest son medicine? ”

"This should be the meaning, this child is lying on the bed, with a towel on his forehead, his face is pale, and the medicine in the bowl is black, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like normal tea." Shao Wanru thought about it carefully, and at that time, she deliberately saw it clearly, just wanted to come back and tell the big housekeeper about it.

Since the chief butler was a person in the palace at the beginning, he might know some things.

Compared with other people, the chief butler is the person who is most likely to know about this kind of thing, even the grandmother, and many things are only hearsay, and they cannot be taken seriously.

"That'...... The bowl ...... What kind of bowl is it......" The butler's face turned pale, his lips trembled twice, and he asked in a low voice.

What the bowl for drinking medicine looked like, Shao Wanru really couldn't remember it for a while, and his attention at that time was not on the bowl, but he just looked at the shape, manners, and things and actions that should be, but he ignored the bowl for drinking medicine, and now he thinks about it, it seems that the patterns on the bowl are also very clear, but he just glanced at it himself, and he didn't care.

Seeing that Shao Wanru couldn't answer for a while, the big housekeeper reminded her: "Is it a big red pattern on a white background...... There is a ...... with a bead pattern Bowl? ”

Even after so many years, when the chief butler mentioned this, he still felt that his throat was tight and sweat was sweating in his vest.

Hearing him say this, Shao Wanru thought about it for a while, and she actually came up with some reasons, "Yes, it's on a white background, because of the white background, it's more obvious to see, the big red pattern is very conspicuous, the first thing I saw was this, is there a bead?" Yes, yes, there are beads, and they are also very eye-catching. ”

Shao Wan recalled a little.

The chief butler propped up the table with his hand, almost fell, looked at a few henchmen in the house, waved his hand, and motioned for them all to go down.

Seeing the solemnity of the chief butler, Shao Wanru also waved his hand, and several henchmen all withdrew, closing the door slightly, and only the chief butler and Shao Wanru were left in the room.

"Butler, what's wrong?" After everyone left, Shao Wanru asked in a low voice.

"Princess, there are some things that the slaves don't dare to say, and they don't even know if it's true, but the first queen was also there, and the slaves followed and took a look."

The big housekeeper paused when he said this, he was very hesitant, he didn't want to mention this kind of thing, or even if he wanted to mention it, he would mention it to the master, not to the princess, but now the master is not in Beijing, the princess is a smart one, plus the queen mother's birthday is in both, if there is really something, the princess doesn't know anything, I'm afraid she has fallen into someone else's trap.

"Great butler......" Shao Wanru urged in a low voice.

"Princess, it's really inconvenient for the old slave to say anything, and he can't say it completely, I'm afraid the princess will guess something wrong." The chief butler looked up with a pale face.

"Don't worry, the big housekeeper, I know the severity, and the matter related to the Queen Mother will not be small." Shao Wanru said with a calm face.

Of course she knew,

The things of the previous life are still lingering in my heart, and even the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother are involved, how can it be small.

Even if she doesn't know the specific thing, she won't be easily vain, and she doesn't dare to tell others about this kind of thing.

Seeing that Shao Wanru's eyes were nervous, his face was quite calm, and he was not frightened because the thing he wanted to know was a secret in the palace.

The chief butler exhaled lightly, and then said slowly: "The original matter, the old slave really didn't know, only knew that the emperor was seriously ill, and it was getting worse, and the hospital had sent someone to inform the first queen and the queen mother, and the queen mother personally served the emperor to use the medicine that day, and the emperor was ...... Crashed, and the bowl rolled to the minion's feet......"

When the chief butler said this, he couldn't go on, and he still remembered the scene clearly even after how many years had passed.

No one thought that the emperor would suddenly die, and many people in the hall almost subconsciously looked at the queen mother, only he was the only one who lowered his head because he noticed the medicine bowl under his feet, and then these people were offended by Tianyan, a certain crime, and died.

The death of the first emperor and the grief of the whole country are together, who cares about the death of a few small palace people.

The chief housekeeper knew that he was fine, not only because he didn't look at the Queen Mother at that time, which angered the Queen Mother, but also because the Queen Mother was inside to protect him, which made him escape this difficulty and leave his life.

This past, he will bury it deep in his heart since the death of the first queen in the future, but he didn't expect that there would be a day when he turned it out, his lips trembled a few times, and he finally settled down: "Princess, this matter has passed, but since this painting has come out, it means that someone also knows about the events of that day, and this is to stab the queen mother......"

The big housekeeper didn't continue, but Shao Wanru understood.

This is a direct reference to the Empress Dowager who murdered the emperor.

Things I didn't understand before, because of the words of the big housekeeper, suddenly became clear, three children, implying the three sons of the Queen Mother, the sick eldest son, the second son who was favored, the third son who played alone, the eldest son drank medicine in bed, and the second son came over, it seems that the mother and son are in deep love, but it can also be understood that the mother and the second son murdered the eldest son together.

The two people snuggled together, indicating intimacy, and the emperor who dealt with them together?

If this is the case, how can the Queen Mother not be angry when she sees such a painting!

"The emperor was really because of this bowl of medicine at that time...... Did something happen? Shao Wan knew that he shouldn't ask, even if he did, he had to ask Chu Liuchen, but at this time, he swallowed his saliva, but tried to make himself look calmer, and his long eyelashes covered the panic at the bottom of his eyes.

The Empress Dowager is the only elder who seems to have real kindness to Chu Liuchen! It can be regarded as wholeheartedly for Chu Liuchen's grandmother, if all this is hypocrisy, how big a blow should it be to Chu Liuchen!

He was originally alone, and he had given up on himself for so many years, if he suffered such a blow again, he didn't know what would happen, Shao Wanru was really panicked in his heart.

"The emperor was seriously ill at that time, and it was clearly stated in the Tai Hospital...... At this time, the Queen Mother will not ...... So irrational. The chief butler replied with a pale face.

He has hidden these words in his heart for so many years, and he is still very nervous when he says them now.

Shao Wanru breathed a sigh of relief, pinched the handkerchief in his hand hard, sensed the dampness at the bottom of his hand, and his heart slowly fell

Come.

She knew the meaning of the big housekeeper's words, as long as the queen mother was not a stupid person, she would deal with the emperor at this time and murder the emperor, it was originally just a running out, how could she murder the emperor, even if she didn't do anything, it was a matter of a few days, so the queen mother did not murder the emperor as implied in the painting.

In other words, the Queen Mother was sincere to Chu Liuchen, not because she murdered his father, so a sense of guilt fell on him.

The Queen Mother is the imperial grandmother who really loves Chu Liuchen.

"Grand butler, are there any other people present at the time?" The big stone in his heart fell to the ground, and Shao Wanru asked again, and the burden in his heart was much smaller.

"At that time, the Queen Mother and the former Empress were there, as well as the henchmen around the former emperor, most of these people died, even if they didn't die, the old slave didn't know where they were now." The chief butler calmed down the panic in his heart, calmed down, and his words became coherent.

"The Queen Mother is not there?" Shao Wanru asked again, this matter should be related to the queen's mother, otherwise there would be no later incident where the queen's mother was implicated.

"The queen mother was not there, the queen mother was only a princess at that time, she was not in front of the sick emperor at all, and the emperor was not there, he was not in the palace at the time, it was the queen mother who invited him later, after the emperor died of illness, the queen mother and the queen discussed it, and then went to invite the emperor, when the queen mother and the queen discussed it, the old slave and others withdrew."

The chief butler recalled.

It happened so suddenly that no one expected it.

"That is, what was said between the Queen Mother and the former queen, no one knows?" Shao Wanru said thoughtfully, that passage should be the key, and the key to deciding the throne is to pass it on to Chu Liuchen, who was just born in infancy, or to pass it on to his younger brother who is in the prime of life, it is up to the two of them to decide.

"No one knows, the Queen Mother and the First Queen who were in it at that time, but at this time, the old slave felt that it was very fast, and it seemed that it was decided in a few words." The chief butler calmed down and said as he recalled.

Just a few words decided the inheritance of this throne? Shao Wanru was stunned, shouldn't this be thought about? Even if the first queen is not for herself, she has to fight for her son, so she gave up the throne to the current saint without fighting, and she didn't have the slightest objection?

It's just so puzzling.

Although the woman is soft, the mother is steel, why didn't the queen fight for her son?

There is no shortage of emperors in history who were born a few days ago, and were held by their mothers, why didn't the first queen agree? I always feel that there is some incomprehensible feeling in this matter of the first queen, as if something has not been connected, so that some things are contrary to common sense.

"Princess, if there is anyone else who can turn this kind of thing out at the moment, the old slave thinks that the most likely is the current queen mother, she must be the only one who has such an ability now, to turn this old thing out, there is someone behind the painting, someone deliberately sent the painting to the Chengen Hou Mansion, if the Cheng En Hou Mansion presents this painting to the Queen Mother in front of the ministers, something will inevitably happen!"

The chief housekeeper has lived in the deep palace for a long time, his eyes are very keen, and after thinking about it, he immediately thought of the accident here, and immediately reminded Shao Wanru that if he offered a picture to the court, something big would inevitably happen.
