Chapter 107: Intrigue in the Deep Palace

On this day, it was the Dragon Boat Festival, and the princes and nobles in the inner courtyard of the palace and the people in the countryside were all laughing and laughing, a jubilant scene.

At this moment, Tang Xuanzong in the deep palace can be said to be smiling, because Concubine Wu Hui's illness has finally been cured.

Not only that, but even the tiredness he had felt for days began to fade away.

From this point of view, the incense entwined by Wu Xinyi's tribute is really worthy of its reputation, and it can instantly cure a stubborn disease that even the imperial doctors are helpless for.

Now, it can really be called a joy and a joy, and it must be celebrated.

For this reason, Tang Xuanzong deliberately held a feast on the main hall to celebrate the festival together.

In order to be able to win attention at the high-profile banquet, the ministers and concubines can be said to be eight immortals across the sea to show their magical powers. In every possible way, he wanted to take this opportunity to make Tang Xuanzong's eyes shine, and then improve his status.

If you talk about this, you have to mention Wu Yingmin.

As mentioned earlier, Wu Xinyi, the father of Wu Yingmin, once used incense to treat Tang Xuanzong's stubborn disease, and the disease was eventually recovered.

In this way, not only Wu Xinyi himself received a lot of rewards, but even Wu Yingmin was so dainted with light that he was suddenly promoted from a talented person to a beauty.

is the so-called official level crushing people to death, since Wu Yingmin was promoted because of this, her life in the palace has been a little uncomfortable. The reason for this is mostly because of the red eyes of other concubines.

And the most obvious manifestation of this is Yang Ruoxin.

Seeing that Wu Yingmin, who was also a talented person, suddenly became a celebrity beside the emperor, Yang Ruoxin felt uncomfortable, so much so that every time she saw Wu Yingmin, she had to deliberately walk around the road.

And Wu Yingmin saw Yang Ruoxin's appearance like this, but she didn't bother to pay attention to it at all. This made Yang Ruoxin, who was already small-bellied, gradually hold a grudge, and secretly planned how to make him suffer.

On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, Yang Ruoxin's personal maid Xiaoyu walked into Yang Ruoxin's bedroom with a few wormwoods in hand.

Xiaoyu originally wanted to insert this wormwood into the vase in Yang Ruo's heart to ward off insects and evil spirits.

I didn't want to be when Xiaoyu gradually pushed open Yang Ruoxin's door, and then entered the house, but was surprised to find that it was a mess.

I saw that the stools in the house were overturned, and the freshly picked fruits and snacks on the table rolled to the ground.

Even the tea bowl that Yang Ruoxin loved very much a few days ago has been smashed at this moment.

Seeing this, Xiaoyu thought that something big had happened, so she immediately stepped forward to take a closer look, but did not find anything unusual.

Seeing this, Xiao Yu, who was confused, simply cleaned up and began to put the wormwood into the vase one by one, but never noticed that Yang Ruoxin was still sleeping with her head covered.

When he was young, Xiaoyu walked slowly to Yang Ruoxin's bed. Seeing that the bed curtain was still not opened, Xiaoyu knew that Yang Ruoxin must have not gotten up yet.

At this moment, although there is still a period of time before the banquet starts, Yang Ruoxin is so lazy on such an important day.

If this situation is seen by people with ulterior motives, won't it be true?

Without further ado, Xiaoyu must wake up Yang Ruoxin immediately. Even if she would be charged with disrespect because of this, she was willing.

Just as Xiao Yu slowly pulled open the curtain in front of her, and then wanted to wake up Yang Ruoxin, she didn't want it to wake up all of a sudden.

It turned out that Yang Ruoxin had been very resistant to the smell of wormwood since she was a child. The slightest smell of it causes an allergic reaction and a vigorous sneeze.

Before this, Yang Ruoxin had never let anything similar to wormwood get close, but this time Xiaoyu actually inserted wormwood all over the house, which was really smart but was mistaken by cleverness.

But what is strange is that Yang Ruoxin saw this situation, but he didn't mean to blame Xiaoyu. And just said meaningfully, you really are not her.

Xiao Yu, who was standing on the side, knew that Yang Ruoxin was resistant to this at this moment, but she still boldly put a wormwood next to her nose.

Seeing this, Yang Ruoxin's heart suddenly burned with anger, so that she who was originally sitting here actually jumped up from the bed very quickly. Then he suddenly raised a hand and was about to hit Xiaoyu.

Unexpectedly, when Xiaoyu saw this, she said unhurriedly: "Miss, if you don't change your bad habits, why do you regain the glory of yesterday?" ”

After hearing this, Yang Ruoxin was stunned for a moment.

I thought to myself, how could she call me that? Could it be ......

On the other hand, Wu Yingmin, who was already proud of the spring breeze at the moment, was carefully preparing for the banquet that would be held soon.

For this reason, she also took a "medicinal bath" at great length.

Unexpectedly, this so-called medicinal bath, instead of playing any role in maintenance, almost killed her.

This is exactly what it is, the jade shadow of Aya Luo faintly flashes through the fine veil, and the beautiful face is clear and disappearing. It is better than the daughter of the cold palace who is lonely and beautiful, but there is no one who has both ability and political integrity for her love.

At this moment, Wu Yingmin suddenly felt that the surface of her body was burning unbearably, and her red spots suddenly became extremely itchy. In this case, it is very similar to drug poisoning.

Sure enough, after the imperial doctor diagnosed him, even if he found the root cause of this disease, it was caused by the medicinal bath that Wu Yingmin had taken.

However, the herbs required for this medicinal bath are prepared and distributed by special personnel, and there is absolutely no room for error. Moreover, she was not the only one who had taken a medicinal bath today, but only Wu Yingmin's body was abnormal, while the others did not have any problems. This shows that this incident must have been deliberately murdered, and it was by no means an ordinary accident.

Wu Yingmin wanted to dress up beautifully and shine at the banquet, but she didn't want to be calculated at the most critical time, so that she couldn't go out to meet people now.

In this way, Wu Yingmin's feud with the person who secretly poisoned him was concluded.

However, Tang Xuanzong's Dragon Boat Festival banquet is about to start, and it seems inappropriate to track down the real culprit at this time.

In desperation, Wu Yingmin could only suspend all actions and wait until the banquet was over to slowly resolve the matter.

The words were divided into two ends, and just when Wu Yingmin was unable to attend the banquet on time because of this, a conspiracy against Xu Ziyan was also quietly generated.

After the banquet, Tang Xuanzong, who was full of joy, could be said to be full of wine and food. But even so, he still did not forget the major affairs of his family and country, so he came to the room alone to review the folds.

In this process, Tang Xuanzong saw a sachet that he had been putting on the table before, which Xu Ziyan specially made for him.

After seeing this sachet, Tang Xuanzong didn't want to pay attention to it at first, thinking that he was still haunted by the previous events.

But after thinking about it, Xu Ziyan is indeed not very wrong. Moreover, since she entered the palace, she has solved a lot of troubles for herself.

Looking at this finely crafted and fragrant sachet, Tang Xuanzong suddenly had an urge to see Xu Ziyan immediately.

So, Tang Xuanzong, who couldn't resist the feeling of longing, came to Xu Ziyan's bedroom, and this was also the first time Tang Xuanzong came here after punishing Xu Ziyan.

Yulu was very happy to hear that Tang Xuanzong was here, so she immediately reported the matter to Xu Ziyan.

I didn't want Xu Ziyan to hear about it, so she played a petty temper again. After all, she knew in her heart that even if she treated San Lang like this, he would definitely not blame him.

When he was young, Tang Xuanzong came to Xu Ziyan.

Tang Xuanzong saw that there was no smile on his face, and he knew that Xu Ziyan must be resentful about what happened before, so he took the initiative to step forward to comfort him.

At this moment, Xu Ziyan unexpectedly discovered that Tang Xuanzong was actually wearing a sachet specially made for him.

Seeing this situation, the two have tacitly reconciled as before.

When she was young, Xu Ziyan saw that Tang Xuanzong's mood was stabilizing, so she told him about the strange things that happened that day, but unexpectedly caused Tang Xuanzong to be displeased.

It turned out that in the afternoon of that day, Xu Ziyan, who was very worried, passed outside Tang Xuanzong's bedroom.

At this moment, a strange fragrance caught her attention, so that Xu Ziyan unconsciously came to Tang Xuanzong's room.

After this, Xu Ziyan saw that there was no one around, so she wanted to go inside alone to find out.

When I went to the house, I saw a few wisps of smoke coming out of an incense burner, and this fragrance emanated from here.

At first, Xu Ziyan didn't care, just regarded it as an ordinary incense and candle product.

Just as she slowly came to Tang Xuanzong's desk, and then was about to pick up the pen and write, she suddenly found herself dizzy and almost fainted.

At this time, Xu Ziyan was surprised to find that as long as she wrote, this symptom became more and more obvious. Could it be that there is some kind of special reaction between these royal tribute ink and this incense?

And when Xu Ziyan unexpectedly learned that this incense was specially made by Wu Xinyi for the emperor's purpose of calming the nerves and maintaining health, it strengthened her suspicions.

Because Xu Ziyan had long heard that this person was not behaving properly and was not right, this time she even intended to use the so-called incense wrapping to achieve their ulterior purposes.

Thinking of this, Xu Ziyan secretly stole some tangled incense and brought it back to carefully study its ingredients.

A few days later, after repeated examinations by a person who is proficient in medical science, it was finally determined that among the incense entanglements that Xu Ziyan brought back, there were indeed substances that could make people hallucinate. If you inhale this incense for a long time, it will inevitably have a great impact on your health.

The magic of this substance lies in the fact that there is a strange reaction between it and the ink incense, so that a new toxic substance is gradually formed.

After this substance enters the human body, it is far more deadly than the toxicity of the incense itself.

Seeing this, Xu Ziyan realized the seriousness of the problem. But at that time, she had just made a big mistake, so no one would believe what she said.

This time, Tang Xuanzong finally came here to spend the night, and he just took this opportunity to inform him of the matter, so as not to be assassinated without investigation.

Unexpectedly, after listening to Xu Ziyan's story, Tang Xuanzong was furious, and thought that she was announcing a personal vendetta.

And what Xu Ziyan said was too alarmist, so Tang Xuanzong didn't believe it.

After all, his illness was cured by Tang Xiang, but Xu Ziyan said that this thing was extremely harmful, which made Tang Xuanzong accept.

Seeing that Tang Xuanzong wanted to leave, Xu Ziyan took out the zongzi she had wrapped herself and kept it for him.

Tang Xuanzong didn't want to eat it, but Xu Ziyan had a good intention, and if he shirked it again, it would be hypocritical, so Tang Xuanzong reluctantly took a bite to show it.

Unexpectedly, as soon as this mouthful of zongzi was eaten in his mouth, he felt bitter and astringent, which was quite unpalatable, so that Tang Xuanzong had to spit it out in front of Xu Ziyan, and then turned around and left angrily.

After Tang Xuanzong left, Xu Ziyan stood alone in place, full of doubts. The rice dumplings wrapped by yourself are obviously sweet and delicious, how can they be bitter? For this reason, Xu Ziyan also deliberately ate a few bites, and there was indeed no bitterness.

It's not good, it must be that the poison of incense is increasing in Tang Xuanzong's body, which in turn destroys his taste system, so he feels bitter.

But Saburo didn't believe me, what should I do?
