The Virtuous Concubine of the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 59 Thorough Investigation (2)

Fulu also frowned, he sighed slightly, and shrugged his shoulders: "I'm just a layman, where would I know?"

Just as Jiaorong was about to roll her eyes at him, Fulu stretched out her hand and interrupted her: "Oh, but I can tell you something else. This imperial chef is a very honest and upright person, at least in my opinion Come on, it is impossible for him to be bribed to poison Concubine Yi."

"And the most important thing is..." When Fulu said this, his eyes widened a little, he looked around, and after making sure that there was no one else, he leaned into Jiaorong's ear and whispered: "Where is Zhang Yuchu's wife?" The old aunt who has served in the Tong Manor for many years, so anyone can poison Concubine Yi, but Zhang Yuchu is absolutely impossible."

Upon hearing this, Jiaorong frowned and stared at Fulu, couldn't help reaching out and patted his arm vigorously, complaining: "Why didn't you say that just now? Now the emperor is going to interrogate Zhang Yuchu Isn't it a waste of time?"

Fulu didn't pay much attention to it, he let out a "sigh", "I'm not thinking about it, the emperor is always in charge of everything, so if you personally interrogate Zhang Yuchu, is it a respect for your Concubine Yi?"

Jiaorong was even more unhappy when she heard this. Her face turned cold, and she pointed her finger at the tip of Fulu's nose in an extremely serious manner and criticized: "You dare to act this narrow-minded? Since you know that the emperor is always in control, He shouldn't be wasting his time dealing with the affairs of the harem."

Fulu looked at Jiaorong's glacier-like expression, and felt that she was making a big fuss: "Oh, don't be so brainy, even if you don't bother the emperor, those concubines in the harem will try their best to find trouble for the emperor, so that In order to compete for favor, compared to you people in Chengqian Palace, you are too scheming."

Fulu's expression seemed to be a bit disgusting. Seeing that she was so angry, she frowned fiercely, rolled up her sleeves and directly grabbed Fulu's ears, "Scheming? You also Do you know that what you said is scheming? The emperor is tired enough dealing with state affairs, it is wrong to waste his time, and we Chengqian Palace will never do such a thing!"

Fulu was dragged by Jiaorong and screamed loudly, "Jiaorong! Take it easy! Ah! Take it easy!"

In the end, Jiao Rong was afraid of disturbing Concubine Yi who was resting in the bedroom, so she slowly let go.Fulu watched Jiaorong take a few steps back, rubbed his red ears pitifully, and muttered, "Usually you are the one who bothers the emperor the most, why do you still know that you love him..."

Jiao Rong didn't bother to take care of the blessing shoes, she calmed down and began to think about who might have poisoned her: "Since it wasn't poisoned in the imperial dining room, it must have been on the road."

As he said that, Jiaorong looked at Fu Lu and asked, "What is the order in which you deliver meals to the various palaces every day? Which palaces are there before Chengqian Palace?"

Hearing this, Fulu curled his lips and complained, "How many times do I have to say it? I'm not an eunuch, and I didn't send the food... Forget it, let me think about it..."

Fulu scratched his head, thought for a moment and said, "Before Chengqian Palace are Zhongcui Palace and Jingyang Palace."

"Zhongcui Palace?" Jiao Rong frowned immediately, and immediately asked suspiciously: "Is it Ma Guiren again?"

But this time, Fu Lu denied her: "Probably not, because in order to suit the tastes of herself and the third prince these days, Ma Guiren has been cooking meals in the small kitchen called Zhongcui Palace, and the imperial dining room has never been served. Zhongcui Palace delivers breakfast."

Hearing this, Jiaorong became thoughtful again, her beautiful winking eyes were full of suspicion at this moment, she blinked her eyelashes twice, and said coolly to herself: "If this is the case, then only Jingyang Palace is left. Now Jingyang Palace is inhabited by Li Guiren, although Li Guiren has not caused much trouble, he is very close to Ma Guiren."

After a while, Jiaorong looked at Fulu again, and said in a low voice, "Go back and help me find out the eunuch who delivered the meal. Be careful, don't let the rumor go."

"You really flatter me too much." Fulu snorted at Jiaorong twice with a face full of salty fish, but he still replied righteously: "For the sake of your Mafa being my master, I will Just help you as hard as you can."

After saying that, Fulu turned around and was about to leave, but at this moment, Jiaorong stopped him softly: "Wait."

Fulu stopped in his tracks, raised his eyebrows and looked at Jiaorong, who pursed his lips and said softly, "You must not let Mafa know about the poisoning of Concubine Yi, let alone let him know that I told you to do it." of these things."

Hearing this, Fulu immediately hooked his lips into a smile, and comforted him: "Don't worry, master, the old man doesn't even know that you have fallen into Chengqian Palace, and told me to help him when I have nothing to do." See how you're doing."

Jiao Rong raised her brows and couldn't help saying: "Then I haven't seen you come to see me."

Fu Lu smiled guiltyly, stretched out his hand to sweep the tip of his nose, and said softly, "I will definitely watch it later."

Immediately, Fulu Diaoerlang said "Let's go", then turned and left Chengqian Palace.

Soon, the imperial physicians came out of Concubine Yi's bedroom one after another. Seeing this, Jiao Rong rushed forward, her expression serious again: "Dear physicians, how is Concubine Yi?"

Among these imperial physicians was Imperial Physician Sun who had taken Jiaorong's pulse before. When he saw that it was Jiaorong, he said softly, "Girl Jiaorong, don't worry. Concubine Yi was just frightened, and there is nothing serious about it. I have already let her After taking the sedative medicine, Concubine Yi has already rested."

Hearing this, Jiaorong nodded to Imperial Physician Sun in gratitude and said, "Thank you, Imperial Physician Sun."

"It's okay." Imperial Physician Sun smiled gently at Jiaorong, and left with the other imperial physicians.

On the other side of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Liang Jiugong walked slowly back to the main hall after seeing off Zhang Yuchu.Jiao Rong was right, the emperor was indeed very tired these few days, the political affairs of the previous dynasty were heavy, and he really didn't have that much leisure time to take care of the trivial matters of the harem.

"Your Majesty, why don't you go back to Qianqing Palace to rest for a while, Lord Suo'etu will come to the palace to discuss matters with you later." Liang Jiugong looked at the emperor and frowned slightly, then bowed and suggested.

But the emperor leaned on the back of the dragon chair, sighed and said: "Poisoning happened in Concubine Yi's palace, and there is no trace of investigation until now. How could I just go to rest like this?"

"Your Majesty, the people below are already conducting a thorough investigation." Liang Jiugong continued to persuade, and then he seemed to remember something, and said: "Furthermore, the maid next to Concubine Yi is now Jiaorong girl. According to Jiaorong girl's temperament, she will definitely not let it go, she is so smart, she will definitely find out the whole thing."
