The concubine entered the palace and the concubine was very attractive

After a long time, Xiao Benzi went through a series of interrogations, and several eunuchs from the imperial kitchen finally said something under various tortures.

After getting the desired result, Xiao Benzi didn't waste any words and directly knocked out the eunuch who delivered the cakes today...

In the inner hall of Wangyueju, Song Nanxiang was discussing with Gu Junshen to have the imperial kitchen deliver ingredients directly to the back kitchen of Wangyueju in the future. From then on, they could cook in the back kitchen and no longer bother the imperial kitchen.

It can also avoid a lot of trouble.

"Your Majesty! Let's ask the imperial kitchen to send some fresh ingredients to the kitchen of Wangyueju. I'll let Aunt Ruolan do the cooking herself. It will save us a lot of trouble in the future." Song Nanxiang opened her eyes wide and blinked at Gu Junshen as she begged.

Gu Junshen's face turned slightly red when Nan Xiang looked at him like this. He coughed lightly and said, "In this case, I will do as my beloved concubine says!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Nan Xiang said in a sweet voice and poured a glass of Biluochun for Gu Junshen.

This Biluochun was a premium tea that Gu Junshen had given her, but now that she was pregnant, it was difficult for her to drink too much, which was a bargain for him.

"My dear, don't worry. I will order people to clean up the imperial kitchen. There's no need to keep these people." Gu Junshen said, with a hint of coldness in his eyes.

When Gu Junshen learned that Nan Xiang almost had a miscarriage because of the things sent by the imperial kitchen, he made up his mind that there was no need to keep these people.

At worst, Liu Sheng can just select some more.

Such a serious threat to the safety of the harem is unforgivable.

"Your Majesty! The punishment should be moderate. If too many people are killed, it might make the servants uneasy." Nanxiang suggested softly.

She was not a saint, but so many people died because of her, and she was pregnant. This cycle of cause and effect would not lead to a good ending.

She didn't want someone who came to seek revenge to suddenly appear beside her more than ten years later.

Of course, she had already proposed it to Gu Junshen, but whether he would consider it or not was not something she could stop him from doing.

"Okay! Since my beloved concubine has asked me to do so, I will agree. However, they can be spared the death penalty, but they cannot escape punishment while alive!" Gu Junshen said with a gloomy face, and the murderous intent in his eyes eased a little.

Of course, he was only talking about some people. Some people still need to be killed.

After a while, Liu Sheng came in and delivered the message.

"Your Majesty! Those people are already tied up outside. Do you know what the next arrangements are?"

"Do you need me to teach you what to do with these people?" Gu Junshen gave Liu Sheng a cold look, as if he had already told him the result.

"I understand! I'll send someone to do it right away." Liu Sheng bowed and said after hearing this.

After leaving the inner hall, Liu Sheng narrowed his eyes coldly towards the people who were tied up and kneeling on the ground, and murderous intent quickly flooded in his pupils.

He knew exactly what the emperor meant by that look just now. If someone should be killed, then he should be killed. There was no need to think so much about it.

"You guys take them to deal with it." Liu Sheng said as he made a gesture of wiping his neck towards several people.

……

Half an hour later, the little notebook arrived at Nanxiang's study.

"Your Majesty! Those people explained something."

"Oh? Tell me quickly! You have done a great job this time. I will let Kikuhei reward you later!" Nanxiang raised her eyebrows and showed joy when she heard it.

This little notebook really has some skills.

"They said that person often asked them to send adulterated cakes to the concubines in the harem!"

Xiao Benzi spoke in a cautious tone, and it was obvious that he had already guessed what these things were.

He also didn't expect that the person behind the murder of his master had such a big plan. It was really terrifying to think about it carefully.

"Well! Do they have any accomplices?" Nanxiang asked.

"Yes. But they were all imprisoned by the emperor. They were the masterminds of giving the cakes to the young lady this time."

"Yes! I understand!"

……

At 5 p.m. that night, Gu Junshen still found Song Nanxiang's brand.

Nanxiang had expected this long ago, ever since she heard that those people involved in the pastry making were executed.

This shows how much Gu Junshen values ​​the baby in her belly.

Of course, Nan Xiang also responded to the mastermind of this incident, and the result should have come out by now.

Looking at Gu Junshen who was walking towards her, she curled the corners of her mouth slightly, looking as if nothing had happened.

……

Chaoyang Palace.

When Concubine Huang heard that Song Nanxiang did not eat the cakes sent by the imperial kitchen and instead caused many people in the imperial kitchen to be executed, she felt extremely upset.

Many of the chess pieces she left in the imperial kitchen were either punished or executed because of Song Nanxiang.

In the future, if she wants to give cakes containing musk and other substances to each palace, she will have to put a lot of thought into it.

Thinking of this, she went to the dressing table in a bored manner, started to put on her makeup, and then took a bath.

Then I saw a plate covered with a red cloth on the table.

"Lüqi! What is this?" Concubine Huang said to the maid outside the door.

He then lifted the red cloth on his own.

"what--"

A scream came from the inner hall of Chaoyang Palace.

"Empress! What's wrong with you?" Luqi heard the shouting from the back hall and walked in immediately.

Then he saw Huang, who was in a panic, her face was pale and she was slumped on the ground, completely losing the dignified image of a virtuous concubine.

With her trembling right hand she pointed at something on the dressing table.

He said in a panicked tone, "Who brought this? It's so scary, take it away!"

Luqi followed the direction Huang pointed and saw the object, her face turned pale.

I saw a bloody severed hand on the plate, bleeding red blood...

"Someone come! Someone come quickly!" Luqi immediately shouted outside.

Luqi's face froze slightly, and she quickly helped Concubine Xian up from the ground.

"Your Majesty! The ground is slippery. Let me help you up!" Luqi'an suppressed her fear and came to Concubine Xian, slowly helping her up.

"Empress! Maybe it's a prank by some ignorant eunuch!" she said in a deep voice.

Concubine Xian grabbed Luqi's arm tightly and stood up with a slight stagger.

"Prank? It's just a threat!" Concubine Xian said in a cold tone with an indescribable hatred.

"Miss!"

"Where did you go today? How did you let people into my inner palace?" Concubine Xian looked at Luqi with cold eyes, as if she wanted to eat her.

At this moment, she had already guessed who sent the severed hand to threaten her, and she couldn't help feeling a little scared.

Luqi's face turned pale, and she explained in a low voice, "I went to the imperial kitchen today to find out information for the queen."

"Didn't I tell you that you don't have to do this kind of thing yourself?" Concubine Xian said with a cold look.

"Your Majesty! It's all my fault! I hope Your Majesty will forgive me!"

"Hurry up and get this disgusting thing taken away!"

As soon as Concubine Xian finished speaking, a eunuch took the severed hand on the plate away with trembling hands.

"There won't be a next time!" Concubine Xian said coldly.

She was just about to sit down and put on her makeup, but when she saw the dressing table she suddenly thought of her severed hand. Her body couldn't help but tremble, and the image of the severed hand kept flashing in her mind.

"Luqi! Tell someone to get me a new dressing table tomorrow."

"Slave, you obey!"
