Chapter 11
Just now when Fu Yao came in together, Madam Zhang, who was serving the left and right sides, suddenly walked out, knelt in the middle of the hall and said, "Your Majesty, this matter is obviously someone who wants to harm the Empress Empress. This servant has served the Empress for many years and knows that she has many difficulties. Next time, please call the shots!"

Fu Yao: "?"

When did these two discuss this out? !
As soon as Nanny Zhang finished speaking, the hall was in an uproar.

Fu Chengxiang was even more stunned, looking at the emperor and Fu Yao in astonishment.

When he was forced to marry his daughter into the palace, he expected that she would be bullied, so he took care of it, hoping that Fu Yao's life in the palace would be easier.

Recently, people often say that the queen is favored by the emperor, but he doesn't really believe it. He thinks that his daughter won't compete for these things, so he won't suffer from jealousy.

What exactly is going on?

Zhang Momo cried and said: "The Empress has been living in the Palace of Compassion and Ning to accompany the Empress Dowager recently, and she acts cautiously. The Empress has a lot of inconveniences, and the past few days have been even more troublesome. Today the Emperor is sympathetic to the Empress and rewarded her with a plate of snacks. I don’t know why I went to Concubine Jing, and then it turned into the current situation..."

A few words stunned everyone.

Concubine Jing ate the snacks that the emperor gave to the queen?

Also poisoned? !

What kind of fantasy is this?

An Guiren in the corner let out a chuckle, startled her servant girl to look around: "Master, please be quiet, it will be bad if someone notices you."

"My father is a general. There are nobles and beauties in front of me. Who dares to think of me?" An Chengyue smiled, and after making sure that no one around could hear her, she pulled the maid to her ear and said, "Xiao Er, you Do you know what I'm laughing at?"

Maid Wu Xiao shook her head: "I don't know."

"Let me dissect the words of that nanny for you. 'Always accompany' means that the queen has not left the house for three days in the Compassionate Ning Palace, and she said that the emperor is sympathetic, so I enjoyed a plate of dim sum. It's so interesting. Who doesn't know that the queen is in In the past few days in the Palace of Compassion and Ning, the emperor has accompanied him every night."

Wu Xiao was startled and cold, and threw out a conclusion that was wrong: "So master, are you jealous?!"

"Help, eat my senior brother's jealousy? You might as well kill me." An Chengyue peeled a grape and stuffed it into her mouth, then glanced at Li Wei, "That poison was deliberately given to Concubine Jing. Three arrows, the arrangement is good, but there are many loopholes, let the master find out in another day, and he should be punished again."

Wu Xiao shook his head; "I don't understand, it was just poisoned, why did it kill three birds with one stone? And wouldn't this harm the empress?"

"I don't expect you to understand," An Chengyue didn't bother to explain, grabbed the grapes and stuffed them to Wu Xiao, "Eat yours."

Everyone was still in a daze after hearing Zhang Nanny's words. In this case, they could only come up with two explanations.

One is that Dim Sum was poisoned on the road and wanted to murder the Queen, but was robbed and eaten by Concubine Jing.

The second is... snacks are inherently poisonous.

but!How is this possible?

Since the emperor gradually came to power, they have all seen the vigorous and decisive style and the difficult-to-guess strategy.

Even if she doesn't like the idiot queen very much, it's impossible for her to be so stupid as to poison her directly.

No matter how stupid the queen is, her father is also the current prime minister, and has always stood by the emperor's side.

He has no reason to do such a self-defeating thing.

So the only possibility is the first explanation, then the question becomes interesting, who wants to harm a foolish queen who doesn't threaten anyone at all?

Li Wei picked up the jade cup and rubbed it for a while, his eyes gradually darkened: "No matter what the queen is, she is also the lord of the six palaces, and there are people in the harem who are not right, do you think they have been too peaceful recently?"

"That's right, and why did the Queen's snacks reach Concubine Jing?"

"It's not that the consequences for Concubine Jing are unimaginable!"

"...you can't say that."

The surroundings gradually started talking, and Li Wei said, "Grandpa Hai, bring the maid who brought the snacks here."

"No need," the queen mother interrupted suddenly. "The Ai family went to see the imperial physician today. Concubine Jing is fine, maybe she just ate something wrong and had a stomachache."

The smile in Li Shi's eyes deepened: "Is that so?"

"Could it be true what Aijia said?" Although the queen mother was smiling, the corners of her wrinkled eyes were a bit cold, "Although Aijia is old, the affairs of the harem can still be handled well. The emperor is young and promising. Pay more attention to temple affairs, don't focus on the sixth house all day long.

"Although the queen is beautiful, how can it be more important than state affairs, isn't it?"

There was silence again.

"What the empress dowager taught," Li Min continued to smile, "to be honest, I have one more thing to do today besides praying for the empress dowager."

The Queen Mother's heart skipped a beat.

She intended to ridicule Li Mi for caring too much about a foolish queen in front of the ministers, but she never expected that Li Mi would go along with such a nasty remark.

What is this stick going to do?
Could it be Zhang Taifu's business?
But after she went to the Hall of Mental Cultivation today, she got news from an informant that Taifu Zhang was still safe and sound in Qizhou, and Li Wei didn't move so fast, they still had a way out.

Thinking of this, the Queen Mother breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Wei was silent for a while, as if he was waiting for his audience to guess, while he sipped his tea and said, "Bring the guilty minister Zhang Xiangxin."

Eunuch Hai's voice was high: "The guilty minister——Zhang Xiangxin."

The Queen Mother was shocked.

The sound of iron chains dragging and colliding came from far away, the gate of Weiyang Palace was pushed open, the night outside the palace was thick and cold, and the wind that swept in swept away a lot of warmth inside the palace.

The few courtiers sitting next to the door couldn't help shivering.

But then, they smelled a smell of blood, and it scattered with the cold wind blowing in.

The sound of the chain was getting closer, dull and slow.

Everyone gradually realized that something was wrong, even if people were shackled in the prison, they shouldn't be walking so slowly, and this low and hoarse friction sound, the more it sounded, the more it sounded like something being dragged on the ground.

The lights in Weiyang Palace were brightly lit, illuminating the large open space outside the palace gate. After a long wait, a group of people finally appeared in front of the gate.

A group of people holding chains in their hands.

They walked forward with great effort, and when they were approaching the gate of the temple, they stopped together, took two steps back, and lifted a huge black clay pot with great effort.

The clay pot is half the height of a person, and the fattest part requires three people to hug it. The mouth of the pot is sealed with a wooden board, and there is a head in the center of the wooden board.

A head with messy hair and a pale face.

A gust of wind blew into the Weiyang Palace, and the smell of blood almost filled the entire hall. Everyone froze and looked at the clay pot in shock.

The one in the jar is their former colleague, Zhang Taifu.

——And now it's a human pig.
