"Jinbao!" Gu Jingcheng shouted coldly towards the outside of the palace gate.

"Your Majesty." Jin Bao walked in immediately, lowered his body and spoke.

"Check if the imperial concubine has seen other imperial physicians or taken any medicine recently." Gu Jingcheng ordered in a low voice with his expression restrained.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Luo Wang Mansion

The two sisters, Li Xiaozhu and Li Xiaoyue, rarely had to go to school today, and were enjoying the flowers with Qiu Yeli in the garden, followed by a group of nuns and maids.

"Mother, look, the pink peach blossoms are really beautiful!" Li Xiaoyue smiled and said to Qiu Yeli, the climate in Kyoto is suitable, and the flowering period is much earlier.

"Human face and peach blossoms reflect each other, it's really beautiful." Qiu Yeli nodded, things have been getting smoother recently, Tianxiangju is operating in an orderly manner, and Gu Jingyao will be back soon.

"Mother, what is there to see in this peach blossom? I heard that there is a new opera troupe in the south of the city. I heard that Huadan is from Yangzhou. She is a master at singing. Why don't mother take us to see the world?"

With excitement and eagerness in his eyes, Li Xiaozhu pulled Qiu Yeli's sleeve and said.

"Theatrical troupe?"

"Yes, mother!" Li Xiaozhu said hastily.

"You all want to go?" Qiu Yeli looked at the two little girls and saw them nodding and smiling dotingly, "Okay, then go."

"Mother is the best!" Li Xiaozhu shouted bouncingly, raising his hands.

"Jing'er, take the two girls to change clothes and prepare the carriage." Qiu Yeli waved her hands and said with a smile.

Jing'er nodded in agreement, and left with the two sisters.

"Wangfei, the theater troupe is dirty, how can you take two girls to such a place." Mother Wang quite disagreed, this princess is really unruly.

"Are you blaming me?" Qiu Yeli narrowed her eyes and said in a cold voice. The princess and concubine have not given her face. If she hadn't thought that Wang Momo had served her mother-in-law, how could she have allowed her to do so again and again? And San's gesticulations are not dared by the maidservants, but they just feel that something is wrong." Seeing that she seemed really angry, Wang Momo explained.

"It's just for listening to the show, Madam Wang, you're being more disciplined." Qiu Yeli said lightly, with displeasure in her eyes, "Since that's the case, Madam Wang will stay in the mansion."

"Yes" Wang Momo was flabbergasted, she lowered her eyebrows and dared not say more.

The carriage of Prince Luo's Mansion was driving on the long street. Inside the carriage, the two little sisters looked outside curiously, full of curiosity and excitement.

There were already many carriages parked outside the theatrical troupe. As soon as they stopped, Li Xiaozhu poked his head out impatiently and got out of the carriage.

The high stage was beautifully built, and the actors in gorgeous costumes babbled and sang on the high stage.

The troupe master walked over quickly, took several people to the reserved front row seats and sat down.

Li Xiaozhu and Li Xiaoyue sat beside Qiu Yeli, listening to the music leisurely.

"Your Majesty, Jing'er left quietly, and the servant girl is looking at the direction to return to the palace." A servant girl whispered in Qiu Yeli's ear.

"Understood." Qiu Yeli picked up the tea cup and tasted it, and said lightly, her eyes still stayed on the stage.

At the same time, in the palace
Jing'er, who was supposed to be in the south of the city, appeared outside the palace, hurrying along.

"Why is elder sister Jing'er back? Didn't she go to the opera with her mother?" The boy at the door said with a playful smile when he saw Jing'er coming back.

"Oh, the empress left something behind, told me to come back and pick it up, and be your errand, what are you asking for!" Jing'er paused slightly, blushing and complaining.

"Yes, sister Jing'er, don't blame me." The servant didn't care much, and started to say with a smile.

Jing'er gave the man a blank look, then turned and walked towards the mansion.

Outside the main courtyard, Jing'er looked around to make sure there was no one there, and then quietly opened the door to go in. She remembered that Qiu Yeli put the ledger in the house, and searched for it, but couldn't find it.

"What are you doing?" A serious and deep female voice sounded from the door.

"Mother Wang, why are you here?" Jing'er was taken aback, and quickly stood aside, at a loss for what to do.

Nanny Wang snorted coldly, stepped forward to look at her and said, "I should be asking Miss Jing'er, what are you looking for in this house if you're not in the south of the city to accompany your mother to the opera?"

Jing'er rolled her eyes and responded quickly, "Oh, Madam ordered me to come back and fetch some things."

"Really?" Wang Momo stared at her sharply. As an old man in the palace, she had seen such things too many times.

"Yes" Jing'er insisted, anyway, Qiuye Li won't come back so soon, as long as she refuses to admit it, what can this old woman do to herself? Thinking of this, Jing'er couldn't help but straighten her back. Now, in front of Madam She is the one who deserves the most face, not this old lady.

"Jing'er, why doesn't Ben Gong remember when I asked you to come back to pick up things?"

Qiu Yeli's sudden utterance startled the woman, Jing'er turned around tremblingly, "Wang Wangfei"

"Princess Wangfei." Wang Momo retreated to the side of the woman, Jing'er stood alone in the room, and everyone gathered around the door.

"This is what you're looking for?" Qiu Yeli slowly pulled out the account book from her sleeve. Since she knew that Li Xiaozhu learned about the opera troupe from Jing'er, she became suspicious, so she simply made a match with Wang Momo. Bureau, come to catch the turtle in the urn.

"Your Majesty, you already knew. You did it on purpose!" Jing'er also reacted, and pointed at Qiu Yeli angrily.

"You guys go out first." Qiu Yeli looked sideways at the door and said.

"Yes." The servant girls left one after another, leaving only Wang Momo and a maid.

"Tell me, who are you and why did you steal the account book?" Qiu Yeli sat down on her own, looking at Jing'er who was forced to kneel on the ground by Wang Nao.

Jing'er looked angrily at Qiu Yeli without saying a word, she didn't expect that she hid it so well, but she was still found!

"Say it quickly! Otherwise, I will send you to see the official! Stealing things from the master's house and selling them to the brothel will be cheap for you!" Nanny Wang said coldly.

Jing'er looked at Qiu Yeli angrily, raised her head and said forcefully, "Your Majesty, you still remember Tianxiangju's chef Wang Er!"

Qiu Yeli raised her eyebrows slightly, motioning for her to continue.

"I am Wang Er's daughter. In order to take the place of Tianxiang, my father was exiled to Lingnan, but he was killed on the way! If it weren't for you! How could my father die!" The more Jing'er said, the more angry she became, struggling to get up, but He was firmly suppressed by Wang Momo.

"Your father did poison, and he should be punished, but I never sent someone to kill your father, and there is no need for it." Qiu Yeli explained patiently, looked at the little girl's stubborn eyes, and sighed slightly. He took a deep breath, "If you want to hate, you shouldn't blame me. You should think about it carefully. Who ordered your father to poison you, and who did the murder to silence you, and then came to you."

After hearing these words, Jing'er's face was ashamed.
