The crabapple tree is fragrant in the tent, and the bright moon is in my arms

Zhaoyue didn't mind making the scene more chaotic. He looked at the scratches on Concubine Fang's hands, called her sister, and fainted while coughing.

He Quan quickly caught her, and Tao Xi immediately knelt down: "My lady, what's wrong with you!"

Concubine Fang looked at her pale face, saw blood flowing from the corner of Zhao Yue's mouth, and looked at the wine she had just drunk: "Your Majesty! Concubine Zhao seems to have been poisoned!"

The birthday banquet ended in a hurry. The banquet was completely silent. Zhu Dingyuan clenched his knuckles until they turned white. "Move to Fengyi Palace!"

On the palace road, the imperial physician was walking hurriedly. Doctor Liu was pulling Su Ziyun and he almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, Su Ziyun helped him.

"Thank you, thank you very much."

"Don't panic, Doctor Liu." Su Ziyun whispered comfortingly.

"How can I not panic? How can I not panic? This is such a troubled time. I'm afraid His Majesty will be furious today!"

-

Fengyi Palace.

Zhaoyue lay on the bed, Zhu Dingyuan held her hand without saying a word.

Concubine Fang was only scratched. She stood beside her and said, "Your Majesty, the imperial physician is here. Don't worry too much."

The queen sat on a chair, but when she saw Zhao Yue lying on the bed in the main hall, she felt a lump in her throat.

The worry between his eyebrows seemed fake: "Yes, Your Majesty, don't worry, Concubine Zhao is blessed by heaven, she will be fine."

"How is King Duan Ze?"

Huang Quan: "Your Majesty, Imperial Doctor He and Imperial Doctor Du have gone there. They injured their shoulders. Fortunately, the swords were not poisonous, so their lives are not in danger."

Zhu Dingyuan looked at Ning Ruxin who was kneeling on the ground. She was wearing a cloak, with her black hair spread on the ground, looking very weak.

The charcoal fire in Fengyi Palace had just been lit. At this moment, the windows and doors were wide open, and the cold winter wind blew in. She was wearing little and was shivering with cold.

"Noble Concubine Gao." Zhu Dingyuan's voice was faint, but it made her feel uneasy and she immediately lowered her head.

"Your Majesty, I am not your concubine."

"What do you mean it's not you?" Zhu Dingyuan looked at her, and also at the concubine standing behind her: "I favor Concubine Zhao, you all know it, so. One of you... quietly poisoned her at the birthday banquet."

"It's you..." He looked at the queen.

"Is it you?" He stood up and glanced at the shivering Concubine Gao.

"No, it's not me... it's not me..."

"It's still you!" Zhu Dingyuan looked at Ning Ruxin, Meng Shuran and others.

His face was as dark as ink, and his eyes were filled with murderous intent.

Everyone knelt down, too frightened to make a sound.

The queen stroked her belly and stood up: "Your Majesty... Today's banquet was organized by Concubine Gao, and the wine that Concubine Zhao drank was not the pot that Your Majesty sent down."

"And the cat that attacked Concubine Fang." The Queen waved her hand: "Xun Qiu, please ask Guard Yan to come in."

Yan Yang put the cage on the ground and half-knelt down: "Your Majesty, it is the noble concubine's cat. It has a wild temperament and loves to eat raw meat, so it pounced on the bloody meat on Concubine Fang's table."

Concubine Fang raised her eyes and said, "Your Majesty, in fact, the plate of bloody meat was presented to Concubine Zhao by the imperial kitchen. I brought it here out of curiosity, but I didn't expect..."

Zhu Dingyuan: "Fang Fei, please stand up and speak."

"Yes." Concubine Fang continued, "This raw meat smells strange. Although cats like to eat raw food, it has a strong smell of blood. Your Majesty, is this what you usually feed your cat?"

Concubine Gao looked at the plate held by the eunuch with trembling eyes and said, "No, no, Bai Tuan does like to eat raw meat, but it is processed after the blood is removed. He would never eat meat that looks like it has just been peeled off alive."

Zhu Dingyuan's eyes were dark: "Is Doctor Liu here?"

Imperial Doctor Liu and Su Ziyun came in from outside, followed by several other imperial doctors. All the people from the Imperial Hospital were dispatched tonight.

Zhu Dingyuan looked at Zhao Yue and said, "Take the pulse of Concubine Zhao and check the plate of meat."

Su Ziyun knelt down and said, "I am Su Ziyun from the Imperial Hospital. I have examined your pulse and understand your physical constitution."

Doctor Liu pushed him and said, "I and my colleagues will go check the plate of meat."

Zhu Dingyuan looked at his handsome and calm face, and when he saw him put the handkerchief on Zhaoyue's wrist, he asked, "I think you look familiar."

"Su Huai is my father."

"The late emperor's imperial physician." Zhu Dingyuan then hummed, "How is Concubine Zhao?"

"She's been poisoned. Fortunately, you didn't taste too much. But... this poison is vicious and has hurt a woman's foundation. I'm afraid you'll..." Su Ziyun lowered his eyes.

"What are you afraid of?" Zhu Dingyuan's eyes fixed and his heart suddenly trembled.

"It's not easy...to get pregnant."

Zhu Dingyuan looked at Zhaoyue's sleeping face, felt dizzy, and stumbled forward a few steps. Huang Quan immediately supported him: "Your Majesty!"

The veins on his forehead were throbbing wildly. He gritted his teeth and looked at Concubine Gao on the ground: "Bitch...bitch..."

Concubine Gao's eyes were red and swollen, and tears kept flowing: "It's not me. Everyone knows that I'm planning a birthday banquet. How could I be so stupid as to poison Concubine Zhao on such a day!"

Hua agreed to kneel down and looked up at the Queen. Her face was worried, but she couldn't hide the pride in watching the show.

She sneered in her heart and lowered her head.

"I will go and prepare medicine for you, my lady." Su Ziyun stepped back.

Doctor Liu suddenly screamed, and the doctors surrounding the raw meat all turned pale. Zhu Dingyuan frowned.

Huang Quan: "Doctor, please speak quickly."

Doctor Liu prostrated himself on the ground, sweating profusely: "Your Majesty, this is not raw animal meat, but... this is flesh and blood that has just been cut from a human!"

Everyone's face changed. The queen covered her mouth. She was pregnant at the time and felt like vomiting after hearing this: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty... I want to go down..."

Zhu Dingyuan pretended not to hear, drew the sword from Yan Yang's waist, fiddled with the plate of meat a few times, and seemed to be laughing in anger.

“That is to say, today, someone used a cat to harm Concubine Zhao, but accidentally hurt Concubine Fang. There may be more than one murderer, because Concubine Zhao’s wine was also poisoned.

The assassin today wanted to kill me, but by mistake, he wounded Prince Duan Ze. "

Zhu Dingyuan sat on the couch, laughing loudly, his eyes fell on each of them, and he clapped his hands: "What a good show, my harem has become your stage."

He smiled until tears came to his eyes, which he wiped away casually after a long while, and said in a very light voice: "Yan Yang."

"My subordinate is here."

"What did I say last time?" Zhu Dingyuan fumbled with the emerald ring on his knuckles. "You have been at ease for too long. Now your job is becoming more and more useless. It's time to replace your position as the chief guard."

Yan Yang's face was grim, and he gritted his teeth for a long time: "I... admit my guilt."

Ning Ruxin was stunned and raised her head to look at Yan Yang. How could this happen? She just wanted to use the white ball to grab Hua Zhaoyue's face.

But why did Concubine Fang save her?

Why did the raw meat she arranged turn into human meat?

Why was Yan Yang dismissed from his post?

She felt a chill down her spine, as if she was being manipulated by a dark hand.

Zhu Dingyuan looked at the queen lazily: "This poisoned wine and food are all related to the imperial kitchen. Queen, tell me, how should I deal with Concubine Gao's dereliction of duty?"
