Chapter 162: Poisoning
"Aifei, why do I think this Xia Yunxian doesn't look like a doctor, but like a cook."
Emperor Tanglin has been eating in Zhaoqing Palace for three days in a row, "After eating her medicinal food, I can't eat the things in the imperial dining room, and I always feel too greasy." ”
He looked at Concubine Chen's complexion again, which was very different from not long ago, her charming face was much ruddy, perhaps because she was pregnant with Liujia, which made her gestures an indescribable charm.
"Mrs. Shizi's best thing is medicinal food, even the old princess and the princess are full of praise, adding drugs to the stomach and spleen to fresh ingredients, which is more conducive to health than big fish and meat."
Emperor Tanglin nodded, and his words were full of approval, "This woman knows a lot, so let's reward it." ”
Concubine Chen smiled, and then brought the cold dish that she couldn't get tired of eating, "The concubine thanked her on her behalf." ”
Gonggong Su next to him saw that Concubine Chen had finished eating quickly, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth without a trace, and after a while, he saw that the concubine's face suddenly changed, and he covered his abdomen in pain.
"Aifei, what's wrong with you?"
"Your Majesty, the concubine is not very well."
Emperor Tanglin was suddenly a little nervous, and Gonggong Su immediately stepped forward, "Your Majesty, the old slave is going to call Mrs. Shizi to come over and check the pulse of Niangniang!" ”
He rushed out of the dining room neatly, but after a while, he came back with a pot of leftover cold dishes.
"Your Majesty, there's something wrong with this cold dish!"
"What's the problem?" As soon as Emperor Tanglin's eyes changed, he saw Gonggong Su pick up a few of the vegetable leaves.
"This is a cow white vine, which people with bodies can't eat!"
As soon as the words fell, Emperor Tanglin's heart jumped, "What will happen?" ”
Father-in-law Su looked embarrassed, "Niu Baiteng is an indispensable herb in abortion medicine, if Niangniang has eaten it every day recently, and now she has abdominal pain, I'm afraid it will be ......."
For a while, the palace people around knelt down one after another, and Mama Zhang was also full of panic, "How is this possible?" This cold dish is prepared according to the type ordered by the Lady of the Prince, if it is not good for the body, where can she let the slaves and maids do it? ”
Just because pregnant women have too many taboos, every ingredient in the cold dish is carefully selected by Xia Yunxian, and there can be no mistakes or omissions!
Emperor Tanglin squinted dangerously, it's this kind of trick again!
That's why his heirs are thin, and how many children died in the womb of his concubine before they were born!
These people ...... It's so ruthless!
"Bring everyone in the dining room over at once!"
Soon, Xia Yunxian also arrived when he heard the news, the emperor in front of him exuded a cold murderous aura, Long Wei was furious, and the palace people who were kneeling and trembling around him were being reprimanded.
"Emperor Qi, the slave doesn't recognize this cow white vine, it is Mrs. Shizi who said that it can be used, so we dare to make it for the mother."
The confessions of all the palace people were the same, and at this time, Father-in-law Su glared at Xia Yunxian with cold eyes, "What else does Mrs. Shizi have to say?" This cow white vine is something that pregnant people should not eat, how dare you use it for your mother, what is your intention! ”
At this time, Xia Yunxian had already saluted Emperor Dongling, and then looked at Gonggong Su lightly, "How does Father-in-law know that Concubine Chen is pregnant?" ”
The other party was stunned, and immediately felt the suspicious gaze of the Tanglin Emperor.
To know about this matter, the emperor promised Concubine Chen that he would not tell anyone, and he would tell everyone when the fetus was stable after three months, so Emperor Tanglin did not even say anything to Gonggong Su, who had always been close to him.
"Slaves and slaves have been serving in the palace for so long, and the slaves can naturally guess one or two about the situation of the mother." Father-in-law Su quickly calmed down, how could a human spirit like him be easily asked by Xia Yunxian.
"How did the father-in-law recognize this cow and white vine, and he also knows medical skills?"
"The servant bumped into the palace maid who delivered the meal, this cold dish was scattered all over the ground, thanks to the minte's careful eyes, the cow white vine is very similar to the mint leaves in the cold dish, Mrs. Shizi is planning to harm the dragon heir unknowingly!"
Father-in-law Su said with righteous indignation, and skillfully avoided Xia Yunxian's question, as if he decided that she was the real murderer.
"Doesn't my father-in-law know that everyone who enters and leaves the harem will be searched, how can the courtiers bring this cow and white vine into the small dining room of Zhaoqing Palace?"
Xia Yunxian's face still did not change, and calmly responded to Father-in-law Su's accusations.
This body search is an indispensable process before entering the palace, in case of dangerous things such as poison daggers, so this cow white vine cannot be brought by her to put into the dish.
And the ingredients in the dining room are inspected more strictly before entering the palace.
Father-in-law Su had already prepared, "Mrs. Shizi is now a person from the Imperial Hospital, if you want to get the medicinal materials, is it not easy?" ”
Soon, the imperial doctor who was taking Concubine Chen's pulse behind the screen was called out.
"Your Majesty, it is indeed Mrs. Shizi who is in charge of sorting and sorting medicinal materials these days, and there are also cow white vines in the pharmacy."
So it makes sense, Xia Yunxian first finished the work at hand in the imperial hospital, and then secretly took Niu Baiteng and went straight to Zhaoqing Palace, during which no one would be searched.
"Father-in-law Su is really thoughtful, but why did the courtiers want to harm Longzi?" Everyone knows that Xia Yunxian is protected by Concubine Chen, and if she does this, Concubine Chen is afraid that she will completely fall out of favor after losing her son, and it will not do her any good!
Gonggong Su sneered, and at this time, a palace maid in the dining room raised her head cautiously, "The slave maid has seen it before, Sister Bihuan in Concubine Jia's palace came to find Mrs. Shizi." ”
Concubine Jia?
Everyone immediately thought of something, and soon Concubine Jia, who didn't know why, was brought over from her palace, and at this time she was still at a loss, and when she saw Emperor Tanglin's gloomy face, she immediately knelt down in fright.
"Concubine Jia asked her under Bihuan to find Mrs. Shizi before, what is the so-called matter?" As soon as Gonggong Su spoke, Concubine Jia honestly explained to Emperor Tanglin.
"The concubine had offended Mrs. Shizi a lot before, so she thought about making amends to her, so she was rewarded with some jewelry......"
Isn't that possible?
The concubines in the harem, aren't they all like this? Could it be that the emperor even blames this?
"Madame Shizi, what else do you have to say? You accepted the benefits of Concubine Jia, for fear that Concubine Chen would give birth to a little prince in the future, and she would steal the limelight from His Highness Eleven, so you poisoned and murdered Concubine Chen! ”
Father-in-law Su's words were like earth-shattering thunder, and they suddenly slammed into Concubine Jia's body.
She stared at Emperor Tanglin with wide eyes in horror, "Your Majesty, is Sister Chen pregnant?" The concubine doesn't know, the concubine really doesn't know! ”
"You really don't know?"
Emperor Dongling was also a little hesitant, Concubine Jia was stupid, such a brainless person, where did she dare to harm Concubine Chen?
Father-in-law Su immediately stepped forward, "Your Majesty, don't you know about the interrogation of Bihuan?" ”
