Time Travel: The actress's acting skills exploded, and she was favored by the harem

In Changdeok Palace, after hearing about this, the emperor thought of the usually energetic concubine who was so seriously ill. He felt a little bitter in his heart, and asked Lin En: "Is Concubine Jin very ill? Why did she faint in Fengyi Palace? How did the queen deal with it?"

Lin En naturally sensed the emperor's anxiety and quickly replied, "Your Majesty, there's a message from Fengyi Palace saying that Concubine Jin's forehead is just a little hot to the touch, nothing else is wrong, it looks like she has heatstroke. The queen has already settled her in Fengyi Palace and has summoned Imperial Physician Zhang for a consultation."

Bo Muxi was relatively satisfied with the Queen's handling of the matter, but his expression remained gloomy.

"Lin'en, go to Fengyi Palace." After saying this, without waiting for Lin'en's reaction, he ran away anxiously.

At this time, in Fengyi Palace, Imperial Doctor Zhang had already rushed over. Shen Zhiyao had also woken up at this time, so Imperial Doctor Zhang took Shen Zhiyao's pulse first.

Imperial Doctor Zhang had just placed his finger on the patient when he felt something was wrong. This pulse of Concubine Jin did not indicate she had suffered from heatstroke, but was clearly poisoned...

Doctor Zhang was hesitant and undecided, not knowing how to respond, so he pretended to take the patient's pulse while thinking of a countermeasure, but the Emperor's carriage arrived at Fengyi Palace at this time.

The emperor ignored the palace maids and eunuchs kneeling outside the palace and hurried into Fengyi Palace.

Everyone in the palace, including the weak Shen Zhiyao, knelt down and paid their respects.

Bo Muxi hurried forward and helped Shen Zhiyao up with his own hands, saying softly: "My beloved concubine is so sick that she has fainted. There is no need to pay respects to me. I don't blame you."

"I fainted in Fengyi Palace today, which was a serious breach of etiquette. How dare I go beyond the rules again? Please don't blame me for my impoliteness, Your Majesty and Your Majesty the Empress."

Shen Zhiyao spoke weakly at this time, which was very adorable.

The Queen thought that Shen Zhiyao would take advantage of the situation to pretend to be pitiful in order to win more favor from the Emperor, but she just apologized, which surprised the Queen and she couldn't help but look up to her again.

"Don't worry, Lady Jin. You fainted today because you were seriously ill. How can I blame you? Fortunately, you fainted in Fengyi Palace. I can still take good care of you. If you fainted on the way, wouldn't that be a disaster? Don't think too much. It's important to recuperate." The Queen said softly and comforted her.

"I thank the Emperor and the Empress for their kindness." Shen Zhiyao leaned against the bed to express her gratitude. She couldn't help but look at the Empress twice more. The Empress' face was full of concern, and it didn't look like she was acting. Shen Zhiyao couldn't help but admire the Empress's breadth of mind and magnanimity.

"Doctor Zhang, what's your diagnosis on the pulse? What's Lady Jin's illness?" Bo Muxi asked with a raised eyebrow, his tone rather impatient.

Doctor Zhang was sweating profusely at this time. He dared not hide anything anymore and knelt down to answer truthfully: "Your Majesty, I just took Lady Jin's pulse. According to her pulse, she was poisoned. The poison caused her fever and sudden fainting. Fortunately, the amount she ingested was very small. She only needs to take good care of herself for a few days and she will be fine."

When Bo Muxi heard that Shen Zhiyao was poisoned, his face immediately darkened. He said sternly, "Pass on my decree. From now on, all concubines are confined to the palace and are not allowed to move around freely. Lin En went to get the steward of the imperial kitchen. The Queen will investigate this matter thoroughly. I want to find out how Concubine Jin was poisoned!"

The harem is very sensitive about poisoning. Although it is difficult to find the real culprit in such cases, the emperor and the empress have always attached great importance to poisoning incidents. Naturally, they need to be investigated and dealt with strictly, and an explanation must be given to everyone, otherwise the harem will be in chaos!

When Shen Zhiyao heard that she was poisoned, she was horrified. She couldn't help cursing the villain who poisoned her in her heart, but she pretended to be aggrieved on the surface: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for taking care of me."

She was extremely weak at this moment, and her voice was hesitant, which made Bo Muxi feel even more pity for her.

"Okay, lie down for a while, I will definitely give you justice." Bo Muxi comforted her softly. Looking at Shen Zhiyao like this, he felt really distressed.

Shen Zhiyao lay down as she was told, no longer caring about etiquette. She still felt dizzy and couldn't hold on any longer.

After the Queen settled Shen Zhiyao down, she saw the Emperor looking at her with a serious expression.

"Queen, such a big thing has happened in the palace again. What do you think?" Although Bo Muxi did not blame the queen directly, his tone was quite unfriendly.

In his heart, he naturally blamed the Queen for poor management, but considering that the Queen handled the emergency properly and Shen Zhiyao was not seriously injured, he still took the Queen's face into consideration and did not embarrass her on the spot.

The Queen thought for a long time, then lowered her brows and said, "I am in charge of palace affairs, and I have indeed failed in my duty. I will go and investigate. If I cannot find the person who poisoned me, I will come to the Emperor to confess my guilt."

Seeing that the Queen was indeed blaming herself, Bo Muxi also knew that such things were difficult to prevent, so he softened his tone and said, "I know that this matter has nothing to do with the Queen. The main responsibility still lies with the steward of the Imperial Kitchen. I order the steward of the Imperial Kitchen to fully cooperate with the Queen in investigating the poisoning for three days. If nothing is found within three days, I will send the steward to the Ministry of Punishment for interrogation. In addition, the people from Cuiweixuan will also be taken to the Ministry of Punishment for interrogation to prevent any servants from betraying the master!"

"Your Majesty, I believe that the servants of Cuiweixuan will not intentionally harm me. I guarantee that Your Majesty, please don't make things difficult for them." Seeing that the emperor was also going to torture people in his own palace, Shen Zhiyao hurriedly pleaded for mercy.

Shen Zhiyao had to protect her own people, even if it was just a show. Otherwise, her subordinates would lose their hearts and who would dare to work for her in the future? Moreover, if she did not protect her subordinates at this time, the emperor might realize that Shen Zhiyao had understood his true intentions, and would increase his suspicion and jealousy of Shen Zhiyao.

The emperor looked at Shen Zhiyao carefully for a long time before he said slowly, "Lin'en, you personally monitor the Ministry of Punishment. All servants of Cuiweixuan are not allowed to be severely punished. Only conventional means can be used for interrogation!"

Shen Zhiyao sighed and said, "Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty."

Qiu Ling and Qiu Ji knelt down and comforted her, "Your Majesty, please be at ease. The servants of Cui Wei Xuan are willing to accept the investigation to prove their innocence."

After the two men stood up, they were taken away by the eunuchs.

"Your Majesty and Your Majesty, I feel much better now. I have bothered Your Majesty and Your Majesty for a long time. It is time for me to return to Cuiweixuan to recuperate. I believe that the person who poisoned will be caught. Your Majesty and Your Majesty will definitely take care of it for me." Shen Zhiyao whispered. She couldn't stay in Fengyi Palace forever. It was really not decent.

"Well, then I will go and get busy with the Queen first. I order Lin En to send you back to Cuiweixuan. In the next three days, I will arrange for my trusted servants to take care of you. You should take good care of yourself and don't worry." Bo Muxi said softly.

"I thank the Emperor and the Empress. I am really feeling very uncomfortable, so I will not bow."

"Stop being so polite and go back to rest." The queen said gently.

The Queen specially arranged for the imperial sedan to send Shen Zhiyao back to Cuiweixuan. Qiuyue was brought from Shen Zhiyao's mother's home, so she was exempted from being interrogated in the Ministry of Punishment.

After Qiuyue helped Shen Zhiyao lie down, Shen Zhiyao sighed and said, "I'm afraid we won't be able to find out who is behind this. I don't know who will be the unlucky one to take the blame."

Qiuyue sobbed softly, "I don't know if Qiuji and Qiuling can bear it."

"Don't worry, the emperor arranged people to interrogate them just to rule out the possibility that I directed and acted in this drama myself. He won't impose severe punishment on them. After all, he still considers my kindness." Shen Zhiyao comforted.

Qiuyue's eyes widened in shock when she heard this. She really couldn't believe that the emperor who just showed that he cared a lot about Shen Zhiyao would actually doubt Shen Zhiyao? !

Shen Zhiyao played with the jade pendant given by the emperor and sneered, "The emperor is very thoughtful. Do you really expect the emperor to have such deep feelings for me?"
