Chapter 149 Investigation
"Your Majesty is wise and powerful, and he will definitely not wrong anyone. Naturally, there is nothing for my concubine to explain."

Gu Qingcheng was too lazy to get involved in the harem battle, so he found a similar excuse, and was going to prevaricate this topic.

"Zhang Zicheng, what else do you have to say?" Nangong Mo winked at the servants, and even if someone came up, he was going to pull Zhang Zicheng down.

"Your majesty, I have been wronged, I have been wronged!"

Zhang Zicheng was so frightened that he shook like chaff.

"Your Majesty, according to my concubine, this donkey-hide gelatin was smeared on the bottom of the bowl from the very beginning. Pour the boiled concoction into the bowl, and the donkey-hide gelatin must have been fused into the medicine."

Gu Qingcheng opened his mouth leisurely, "This medicine bowl is originally dark red, so I didn't realize it when I picked it up, and it is very likely that the medicine was washed in a daze."

As soon as these words came out, there was complete silence in the Queen Mother's bedroom.

After a long while, Zhang Zicheng finally came to his senses, and quickly agreed with Gu Qingcheng's point of view, "What the imperial concubine said is true, what the imperial concubine said is true!"

"If your majesty doesn't believe it, you can look at the bottom of the bowl, is there any unmelted donkey-hide gelatin?"

After thinking about it, Gu Qingcheng found that there was only one reason to take this medicine under the noses of herself and Zhang Zicheng.

Concubine Lian rolled her eyes and continued, "Sister really observes meticulously. The imperial doctors in the imperial hospital didn't notice it, but I asked my sister to find out."

Isn't it obvious that this matter has something to do with Gu Qingcheng?
Otherwise, why didn't the imperial doctors notice it, but she, Gu Qingcheng, knew about such a mystery?
"The imperial concubine didn't notice when she fed the queen mother medicine, why did she find out now?"

Nangong Mo also felt strange.

"If you go back to the emperor, do you see a different ray of crimson in the medicine bowl?" Gu Qingcheng said neither humble nor overbearing, "This means that the only donkey-hide gelatin left at the bottom of the bowl has melted, and it hasn't had time to melt into the medicine. Just observe carefully , very obvious."

Hua Yao at the side heard this, glanced at the medicine bowl, and found that it was really what Gu Qingcheng said.

"Well, it is indeed as the concubine said." Nangong Mo looked at the medicine bowl and nodded, "I believe that the concubine is a person, and she would not do such a thing."

"Zhang Zicheng, since it wasn't you who did it, you can help me find out the real culprit, or I will definitely take your head." Nangong Mo dropped these words, "It's getting late, I limit you to investigate before noon tomorrow. come out."

Zhang Zicheng was terrified. Hearing that he could save his life, he hastily agreed.

At the same time, the imperial hospital made another fry according to the prescription for taking care of Qingcheng. After feeding it to the queen mother, the fever quickly subsided.

Seeing the matter come to an end, Concubine Lian stood up and saluted, "Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager's condition has stabilized, and this concubine please stay here to serve the Empress Dowager."

Her understanding appearance made Nangong Mo satisfied.

He has always disliked troublesome women, now that he hears that Concubine Lian is so sensible, he naturally feels a lot better.

"Since the Queen Mother's body is Kangtai, how can I have the heart to let you serve here? Okay, let's go back and rest earlier." Nangong Mo looked at Gu Qingcheng, saw her yawn, and was not willing to let her go. She tosses.

So, by the way, he treated Concubine Lian better.

"The emperor is tired of reviewing papers, and the concubine sent someone to make ginseng soup, why not go to the palace with the emperor to use some?"

Concubine Lian smiled and brought up this matter.

Gu Qingcheng couldn't help laughing, the whole night of singing was actually for such a thing, it was really to get close to the emperor, and she used all her skills.

"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager's condition is stable. Since this is the case, the concubine will retire first."

After Gu Qingcheng felt the queen mother's pulse, she felt relieved.

Nangong Mo frowned, why did she approach Concubine Lian by herself, she still looked indifferent?

Seeing Gu Qingcheng like this, Nangong Mo became even more angry. After waving his hand as a response, he saw Gu Qingcheng get up and walk out with his servants.

She is really getting more and more savage!

"Your Majesty, then..."

Concubine Lian followed the emperor's line of sight and found that he was looking at Gu Qingcheng again, she almost gritted her silver teeth in anger.

However, she could only endure her grievances, and said submissively, "Your Majesty, why don't you go back with your concubine and have a cup of ginseng soup together?"

Nangong Mo shook his head coldly, "I have returned to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, you should go back to rest earlier."

It was already time to rest, Nangong Mo didn't have any intention of getting close to Concubine Lian, so he got up and left the Palace of Compassion and Ning.

Concubine Lian was the only one left in the huge bedroom at this time, she frowned tightly, her fists were clenched, her nails were embedded in her flesh.

Gu Qingcheng, why are you robbing me of everything!

Concubine Lian stood up angrily and returned to her own palace angrily.

Concubine Lian didn't invite Nangong Mo, and Concubine Lian felt displeased with everything she saw. As soon as she returned to the palace, she smashed a cup of tea brought by the little maid, "It's useless, if you don't invite the emperor, what kind of tea are you drinking?"

The little maid was startled, and knelt down directly, "Your Majesty, don't be angry, Your Majesty, don't be angry!"

Concubine Lian calmed down a bit, and stretched out her hand to greet the little palace maid, "You are quite clever, I gave you a name, from now on you will be called Hua Sui, follow me."

Ever since Caiyun disappeared, Concubine Lian has no capable assistant by her side, so she has to do everything by herself.

In the end, she was beginning to feel uncomfortable, too.

Just like today's donkey-hide gelatin incident, she didn't take down Gu Qingcheng in one fell swoop, which really gave her a headache.

There were not many concubines in this palace, and the only one who could stand against Concubine Lian was Gu Qingcheng.

In addition, the emperor had recently treated Gu Qingcheng with kindness, so he had to make Concubine Lian jealous.

"Yes, Your Majesty, this servant will always look up to Your Majesty, and has no second thoughts." The little maid hastily knelt down and saluted, expressing her sincerity, "This servant will definitely satisfy Your Majesty."

"Okay, get up, I value you, you have to work hard."

Concubine Lian pulled the flower spikes, and raised her harmless little face, "I don't have anyone capable around me, but now you are, we are master and servant, I will not treat you poorly. "

Without Caiyun, Concubine Lian was eager to find a capable assistant, and after getting along with this little maid for a while, she felt that she could be used.

"Yes, ma'am."

Huasui is not very old, she has never seen such a courtship before, and she was touched by Concubine Yu Lian's attitude towards her for a while.

Concubine Lian was very relieved, she knew that she had lost such a backer as the prime minister, she should restrain her edge in the palace, and not make such a big noise like before.

What's more, she always felt that there seemed to be some gap between the emperor and herself.

"Okay, you go down first, take a cup of honey soup to the emperor tomorrow morning. The emperor is busy with state affairs, we should pay more attention to it." Concubine Lian waved her hand and sent Hua Sui away.
