The concubine entered the palace and the concubine was very attractive

Upon hearing this, Eunuch Liu immediately ordered people to investigate who had been to the lotus pond yesterday.

Then he said to Wang with an apologetic smile, "Madam, I have finished my questions."

"Come here, take this slave girl to the Ministry of Punishment!" Upon hearing this, Wang pointed at Cuiyun and said to the eunuchs beside her.

"Slave takes orders!"

"Your Majesty, please spare me! Your Majesty, please spare me! Eunuch Liu, please save me! I didn't mean it." Cuiyun kowtowed continuously in tears, and soon a small pool of blood was left on the ground.

Wang turned a blind eye.

A eunuch came quietly behind Cuiyun and hit her hard. Cuiyun fell unconscious and was dragged away.

……

Jingren Palace.

"Your Majesty. I just heard from the eunuch that the princess had a fever last night due to poisoning." Caizhi quickly walked to the inner hall and said to Chen.

"What?" Chen's tone was surprised, and a hint of panic flashed in his eyes.

'It seems someone can't sit still anymore!'

As the emperor's first child, Princess Yong'an's importance is self-evident. If she, as the head of the harem, is neither present nor inquiries, she will surely be criticized.

What Chen is concerned about now is not the safety of Princess Yong'an, but the fact that she, as the queen, has not played any role at this critical moment, and the emperor will definitely be even more displeased with her.

Chen has followed the emperor for so many years, and apart from getting the position of empress, everything else has basically become a delusion. If she can't even do a good job as empress, the consequences can be imagined.

After a while, Chen arrived at Chengqian Palace.

At this time, the virtuous concubine Huang also arrived and was chatting with Wang.

"The Queen has arrived." The eunuch beside the Queen shouted.

"Quiet. Don't you know that the princess is sick?" Chen scolded the eunuch.

At this time, Wang and Huang came over, bowed and said, "I pay my respects to the Queen."

"Get up quickly."

"How is the princess's condition?" Chen said in a worried tone.

"The imperial physician and the emperor are already inside. The imperial physician said that he was poisoned by aconite." Wang's tone was sad, her face full of sorrow.

"Don't worry, sister. With the emperor here, the princess will be safe." Chen comforted softly.

"Yong'an is my only child!" Wang said with a tearful tone in her voice.

"This kind of thing happened. Have you found out who did it?" Chen asked.

"Your Majesty. I have already ordered people to investigate. I believe there will be results soon." Eunuch Liu said with his head bowed.

……

Wangyueju.

After Su left, Song Nanxiang finally felt a lot more at peace.

However, this conversation also allowed Nanxiang to understand what kind of person Su was.

Her presence will be indispensable in the harem in the future.

But if Su was planning on her, she would not forgive him easily.

"Master! It's time for you to take your medicine." Caiyun came into the hall carrying a bowl of medicinal juice with a strong medicinal aroma.

Hearing this, Nanxiang couldn't help but frowned.

Soon the bedroom was filled with a strong smell of medicine.

She hated drinking the medicine in the palace the most because it was too bitter.

"Caiyun, give me some candied fruit." Nanxiang sighed and picked up the medicine, saying casually.

Although Nanxiang was unhappy, she still had to take the medicine. If she didn't make up for the weakness she suffered in the Song family in her early years, it would be difficult for her to have her own children in the future.

Only by having a child can you have a foothold in the harem. This is the so-called "a mother's honor depends on her son."

Upon hearing this, Caiyun smiled and handed over the candied fruit that she had prepared long ago.

"You are thoughtful." Nanxiang smiled when she saw this.

Nanxiang took a bite of candied fruit, picked up the medicine and was about to drink it when she realized something was wrong. She frowned slightly and put the medicine bowl back on the table.

"There's something wrong with this medicine." Nan Xiang said coldly.

The medicines from the past few days were all dark brown, but this bowl is now tea brown, and even has some milky white floating in it, and it smells weird.

In order to prevent the imperial physician from prescribing medicine indiscriminately, Nanxiang would observe the performance of the medicine soup before taking it every time. She would only drink it if there was no problem.

"What?" Caiyun covered her mouth in surprise when she heard that.

Then she knelt on the ground in panic, looked at Nan Xiang with tears in her eyes and shook her head, "Master! I really don't know!"

Nanxiang helped Caiyun up with a sullen face, then glanced around the palace.

"Of course I believe you. I'm just afraid that there is a traitor in our Wangyueju." Nanxiang's eyes darkened.

She didn't expect that even though she had warned those servants, there were still some who were disloyal.

She is never one to get into trouble easily, but of course if someone provokes her, she won't be polite.

If she had not worked in the laboratory for many years and had not had a certain understanding of the colors, smells and effects of various drugs, she might have drunk the bowl of medicine with extra ingredients.

Although the dose of aconitine in this bowl of medicine was not very strong, it was enough to cause her to have adverse symptoms such as dizziness and diarrhea.

If used several times in a row, it may be life-threatening.

"Caiyun, don't tell anyone about this for now." Nanxiang said.

Caiyun nodded lightly, obviously what happened just now had a great impact on her.

Nanxiang sighed, poured the bowl of medicine into the flowerpot next to the couch, and sprinkled some fine powder of spices on it.

After all, Caiyun is young and inexperienced, and doesn't know much about the harem. How can she remain calm when encountering such a thing?

"Caiyun, when you go out, pay attention to who is behaving abnormally." Nanxiang handed the bowl to Caiyun and instructed.

"I will definitely pay attention to it." There was some determination in Caiyun's eyes, as if she suddenly understood something.

"Go ahead." Nanxiang smiled.

……

After Caiyun walked out of the hall with the bowl, she returned to her original state.

She was indeed frightened just now, but when she thought that her master would have no one to rely on except her, she cheered up again.

I was thinking that I would definitely find the rat that wanted to murder the young master.

Thinking all the way, Caiyun came to the kitchen.

Although Song Nanxiang is a permanent resident, she lives in Wangyueju, which is the emperor's newly built courtyard. It has all the facilities and naturally has a kitchen. She usually asks Caiyun or Chunyue to prepare some food.

There was no such thing in Tingxue Hall next door, so servants had to go to the Imperial Kitchen to get their meals every day.

At this time, medicine was still decocting on the stove, emitting hot white steam.

Chunyue inside was happily working on something with a happy smile on her face.

Caiyun glanced at it indifferently, then quietly placed the medicine bowl into the wooden barrel.

"Chunyue, what are you doing?" Caiyun looked at what Chunyue was holding and asked.

"Sister Caiyun, I want to make some cakes for the young lady. This is the plum blossom cake that I brought home. It tastes very sweet." Chunyue said happily while holding up the cake she had just made.

Caiyun actually didn't doubt Chunyue. After all, after spending these days together, she found that Chunyue was a simple person just like her, and they usually got along well.

But when it comes to the young master's matter, she has to take it to heart.

Maybe the person closest to you is the one with the deepest thoughts and the one who is plotting to harm you.

"Chunyue, let me ask you. Besides you, who else is in charge of decocting medicine?" Caiyun thought for a while and asked.

"Sister Kikuhei sometimes comes to help me." Haruzuki said casually.
