Chapter 30: The Cause of Dim Sum
"Concubine Jia, don't be careful, Jing Yuan must not mean this."
Chu Aotian gasped heavily, and gave a look in the direction of Concubine Jia, and Concubine Jia closed her mouth in understanding and said no more.
Just when Jing Yuan didn't care, he suddenly saw the little eunuch kneeling on the ground kowtowing to the queen fiercely, and shouted in his mouth: "Please forgive the queen, the slave knows the means of the concubine, and he definitely doesn't dare to continue to live here, and the slave is here to say goodbye to the queen!" ”
After only saying a few words, while everyone was not paying attention, Xiao Lizi got up violently and slammed into the table on the side regardless of it!
"Bang!"
Xiao Lizi fell to the ground softly, and the blood on his forehead flowed down his face, and he went like this.
Everyone was shocked in their hearts, but before the exclamation in their throats and eyes came out, they were frightened back by Chu Aotian's angry shout: "It's just a slave who betrays his master, and if he dies, he will die, what's the fuss?" ”
After inspecting the expressions of everyone around, he said with disgust to the eunuchs serving on the side: "Drag it down, drag it down!" ”
"Father!"
At this moment, Jingyi suddenly shouted, and looked at the queen with resentful eyes: "You have heard the words of Xiao Lizi on his deathbed, he is the queen's mother's person, and what he did must be instructed by the queen's mother!" Erchen, please call the shots for your mother and the dead little prince! ”
But even Jing Yuan was startled by this change, let alone the queen, at this time, the queen's face was pale, and she panicked, so she could only look at Chu Aotian helplessly, kept shaking her head, and explained weakly: "Your Majesty, the concubine doesn't know why Xiao Lizi said this, but the concubine really didn't tell him to do anything, Concubine Rou had a miscarriage, and the concubine dared to swear to the sky that it was not the concubine's doing!" ”
"The concubine believes that the queen mother will not do such a thing, but Xiao Lizi's dying words are indeed a little puzzling......"
Concubine Jia interjected again, lowering her eyes, so that people couldn't see what she was thinking: "But it's a problem now, the only clue is that Xiao Lizi is dead, so this matter can only be stopped?" ”
"No way!"
Unexpectedly, this sentence was said by Jing Yuan and Jing Yi in unison, and after only saying these two words, the two glanced at each other, and they both saw a look of contempt in each other's eyes.
"The mother concubine said, 'The goose has left a voice', if it weren't for Concubine Jia's mother, my father might have ordered to search Fengyi Palace at this time!"
Jing Yi snorted coldly, turned around and blessed Chu Aotian, and said loudly: "Just assume that the matter of Xiao Li Zi has not happened, and the son asks his father to thoroughly inspect Fengyi Palace!" ”
"Of course the matter can't be finished like this, otherwise how should this basin of dirty water be washed off the queen mother's body?"
As soon as Jingyi's words fell, Jingyuan took a deep breath, forced herself to calm down, stared at Jingyi coldly and said: "Jingyi's imperial sister's memory is really bad, I have already said that it can't be the evidence of the queen's doing, didn't Jingyi's imperial sister just take my words as a deaf ear?" If this is not the case, why not let the real murderer be caught, but pour this basin of dirty water on the queen mother's body? ”
"Then who do you say is the real murderer? Could it be Concubine Jia's mother?! ”
Jing Yi's eyes were on fire, and she wanted to tear Jing Yuan in front of her into eight petals.
"Princess Jingyi, don't joke like this, this palace can't afford it!"
Concubine Jia hurriedly whispered a word of excuse for herself, but no one thought like this originally, so no one cared.
"Others don't know that Concubine Rou is pregnant, but there must be a few people in Huayang Palace who know, such as——"
Jing Yuan dragged out the last note, put his eyes on Xichun, who was eager to bury his head in the ground and make a quail-like body, and chuckled: "Miss Xichun must know, and there are a few girls who cherish the word I know, theoretically speaking, the possibility of them attacking Concubine Rou is much higher than that of the queen mother...... Don't be in a hurry to shout grievances, I just said maybe, but I didn't say it is certain, after all, Concubine Rou's daily diet is also very messy, maybe she inadvertently ate something unclean? ”
Having said this, Jing Yuan took the opportunity to say to Chu Aotian: "Erchen thinks that if you want to find out the real culprit who caused Concubine Rou's miscarriage, you must first thoroughly investigate Huayang Palace!" Including the diet of the mother on weekdays, you need to ask the imperial doctor to check it from the beginning, and also ask the father to decree that all the pregnant concubines in the future will be reported to the queen mother or the father as soon as possible. ”
Yixi's words were reasonable, and even Chu Aotian was a little impressed.
"Didn't you hear the princess?!"
After a moment of sluggishness, Chu Aotian looked at Jing Yuan with admiration on his face, and said loudly to the imperial doctor who was waiting beside him: "First search all the top and bottom of Huayang Palace, including Concubine Rou's diet on weekdays, I don't believe it, in this big palace, there are people who dare to hurt my heirs!" ”
"Ministers obey ......"
The imperial doctors listened to the grievances of the royal family for a long time, and they were already sweating profusely at this time, and they couldn't wait to find an excuse to slip away, and now Chu Aotian spoke, which was regarded as giving everyone a step, and the imperial doctors hurriedly scattered and began to find the culprit who caused Concubine Rou's miscarriage.
Jing Yuan stood calmly beside the queen, while Jing Yi was full of hatred, accompanying Concubine Rou who was crying from time to time during the period, the two camps were clearly positioned, and both pointed the finger at each other.
Concubine Jia still stood solemnly with her hands down, her eyes looking at the ground slightly, as if she could hang it high if she had nothing to do with herself, while Chu Aotian pursed her lips tightly, her face cloudy.
I don't know how long it took, but I saw Imperial Doctor Wang hurriedly approaching, and kowtowed to Chu Aotian in horror: "Your Majesty, the ministers have checked Concubine Rou's food, clothing, housing and transportation, and they haven't found anything wrong...... Besides, Concubine Rou is the second child, and the precautions should be clear, so ...... is so."
The imperial doctor didn't say the next words, but everyone could guess it, so they set their eyes on the queen.
Imperial Physician Wang is the judge of the Imperial Hospital, and he is the person Chu Aotian trusts the most, if it weren't for this, he would not have been put in this position, so Jing Yuan was not worried about the possibility of Imperial Physician Wang being bought by Concubine Rou - if Concubine Rou really dared to reach out and didn't say anything about others, Chu Aotian would have broken Concubine Rou's hand.
The current situation is becoming more and more unfavorable to the queen, and the originally calm queen's face is gradually showing a look of decline, wanting to explain, but there is nowhere to start, there is a feeling of punching hard but hitting the cotton, which makes people feel very uncomfortable.
But......
Jing Yuan's brows furrowed tightly, and he looked around, and finally saw the dim sum food box on the table that was dangling in the Long An Temple, which was said to be made by Jing Yi herself.
"Imperial Physician Wang said that he had found out all the food and drink in Huayang Palace, but the Imperial Physician of the Food Box didn't seem to have checked it!"
Jing Yuan pointed with his hand, and everyone's eyes were on the food box again.
"That's the dim sum given by the emperor to the palace, what, does Princess Jingyuan mean that the emperor will murder his own flesh and blood?!"
Concubine Rou, who had been whimpering for a long time and had not spoken, suddenly opened her mouth, and looked at Jing Yuan with a sarcastic face: "I still hope that the princess will be cautious, this palace knows that the princess is trying her best to excuse the queen's mother, but I hope that the princess will take it to heart!" ”
"It was given to the mother by the father, but it was not made by the imperial dining room, it is said that it was made by the royal sister Jingyi herself-"
Speaking of this, Jing Yuan put his eyes on Jing Yi again, and blinked: "Imperial Sister Jing Yi, I don't know if what I said is right?" ”
"So what?"
Jingyi gritted her teeth: "Could it be that I will deliberately murder my own concubine?" The eldest emperor's trick to sow discord is really a bit of a failure! ”
"I didn't say that Imperial Sister Jingyi wanted to deliberately murder Concubine Rou, after all, Imperial Sister Jingyi didn't know about Concubine Rou's pregnancy, even Imperial Sister Jingyi didn't know about it......"
Jing Yuan rubbed his chin and nodded seriously: "I just mean to say that Imperial Sister Jingyi is young and doesn't know the depths, so she can't say that she put something forbidden for pregnant women in this heart?" Isn't this an indirect harm to Concubine Rou? So to find out the truth of the matter, ask Imperial Doctor Wang to check it out for yourself! ”
"This ......"
Imperial Physician Wang's face showed a hint of hesitation, and he glanced at Chu Aotian with some embarrassment.
I saw that Chu Aotian also frowned, as if he had measured it in his heart for a while, and then nodded almost imperceptibly to Imperial Physician Wang, Imperial Physician Wang suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and came to the table, opened the food box, and carefully examined it.
Jing Yi looked at Jing Yuan with hatred, but Jing Yuan didn't seem to take it to heart at all, and there was a smile on the corner of her mouth, which made Jing Yi feel even more angry.
After a short time, Imperial Physician Wang knelt in front of Chu Aotian again.
"Is there anything in the heart, Aiqing but it doesn't matter!"
Chu Aotian saw that Imperial Physician Wang still had hesitation on his face, so he secretly reminded him again.
"Return, return to the emperor's words!"
Doctor Wang was heartbroken, closed his eyes, and said loudly: "There is a very heavy amount of saffron in that snack, and there are all kinds of it, if Concubine Rou has used dim sum, presumably the miscarriage is absolutely inseparable from this dim sum!" ”
As soon as this remark came out, the audience was in an uproar.
"You talk nonsense!"
Jingyi's face turned pale, her eyes widened, and she screamed in horror: "This princess didn't put saffron, it was just an ordinary snack, how could she put saffron?" Imperial Doctor Wang, don't spew blood! ”
Jing Yuan on the side heard this, and his body couldn't help but stumble!
The dim sum was indeed secretly changed by himself, but the dim sum that could be replaced only had laxatives and no saffron, so where did this saffron come from?
Could it be ...... The praying mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch is behind?
Thinking of this possibility, Jing Yuan's heart suddenly sank to the bottom.
