Tease the medical concubine, the prince has been chasing

Concubine Xin came over after hearing this.

She tore off the flower from the palace maid's head, and after only a few blows, she said bitterly: "Dear maid, when I was pregnant, I heard the imperial doctor say that this oleander is very harmful to pregnant women. Who said that?" Instructed you to do this?"

The palace maid knelt down, trembling, and whispered: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I only heard that this oleander can repel mosquitoes, but I never thought it could have such an effect."

"Repelling mosquitoes?" Tang Xueyao sneered, "Who are you fooling? Although this oleander can be regarded as a traditional Chinese medicine, it is highly toxic before treatment."

"Yes, really? Maybe the maid remembered it wrong."

The palace maid was like sifting chaff, trembling even more fiercely, but she still said harshly: "Mother, I was wronged. I really didn't know that these flowers can make people tire, I'm sick!"

As she spoke, she suddenly felt nauseated and then fainted.

"You bitch, do you think it's okay to pretend to be dead? Get up and tell me who is behind this. Get up."

Concubine Xin was a little excited and yelled at the unconscious maid.

Suddenly, she clenched her hands into fists, trotted up to Concubine Shu, and shouted loudly: "It's you, right?"

"You are jealous that I, Yan'er, can serve as an official in the court again, and you are also afraid that after Yan'er's child is born, you will never have a chance again, so you take advantage of this palace banquet to start implementing your plan."

"What is my sister talking about? How could my sister be like this?"

Concubine Shu blinked her innocent eyes and said aggrievedly to the man beside her: "Your Majesty, look at what my sister said."

"My concubine and Rui'er have never participated in the government affairs. They only serve the emperor. Unlike my sister, I know the situation in the court and can share the emperor's worries and solve problems."

The emperor looked at Concubine Xin with cold eyes and said coldly: "My concubine, there is evidence for what she said. If not, it is better to say less."

Concubine Xin knew that the emperor was reminding her not to mention court affairs.

She looked at Concubine Shu's proud smile, feeling unwilling but helpless.

He had no choice but to place all his hopes on the palace maid, hoping to find something out of her.

At that time, Tang Xueyao ignored the farce over there.

She saw the vomit under the palace maid's body and guessed that it was oleander poisoning.

Moreover, looking at the vomited snacks, it seemed that after picking the oleander, its juice remained on her fingers. The maid didn't care, and mixed it with the cakes when she ate it secretly.

After thinking about the reason, she was about to step forward for treatment, but Concubine Xin directly called the imperial doctor. No matter what method she used, she must make the palace maid wake up quickly.

In response, Tang Xueyao could only retract her feet and sit back next to the man.

Ning Han had a sullen face, covering her belly, and said with a gloomy expression: "My wife is really the reincarnation of a living Bodhisattva. She works everywhere with her belly full, which makes people admire her."

Regarding the man's strange aura, Tang Xueyao clicked her tongue twice and said with a chuckle: "Human life is at stake, so I will do my best. My husband, don't be angry anymore."

The man snorted coldly.

Although his attitude is still cold, his expression has softened a lot.

Tang Xueyao came closer to his strong embrace, and the nerves that had been tense when rescuing people could finally relax.

Once a person relaxes, the brain will always automatically recall some experiences.

It was precisely because of this that Tang Xueyao realized something was wrong.

It stands to reason that smelling or eating oleander for a long time can easily lead to miscarriage in pregnant women, but according to the situation just now, the distance between them is not enough to cause such a serious miscarriage. Among them, there must be something she did not check. arrive.

Tang Xueyao stood up, bowed to the emperor, and said coldly: "Your Majesty, my daughter-in-law suspects that Princess Yan not only suffered a tire slip due to the scent of oleander, she must have been exposed to something else."

"This matter concerns the royal heirs. Please send more manpower to investigate the matter." The emperor was furious, and his long, narrow and cold eyes swept across the crowd with deep oppression.

He shouted: "Come here, surround the imperial garden and check all the palace maids and guards."

Tang Xueyao took advantage of their inspection and sat on Ji Susu's seat again, carefully observing what she had used, hoping to find some new clues.

It was just a chance, but she actually smelled a different smell in the jujube paste cake in front of Ji Susu's table.
The smell was somewhat familiar, but I couldn't recall it for a moment.

She rolled up her sleeves, twisted a piece, and was about to taste it when a steady voice interrupted her.

"Miss."

Ning Han walked up to her, raised his hand and pointed at an old man next to him who was over fifty years old, and said: "This is Dr. Zhou. He has tasted all kinds of herbs and his taste is more sensitive than ordinary people. You don't need to try it yourself."

"Then there will be Imperial Physician Lao Zhou."

Tang Xueyao put down the pastries in her hands and ordered Dr. Zhou to get a new one.

"Thank you, Princess Han."

Doctor Zhou took the pastry, took a bite, and said calmly: "Princess, this jujube paste cake has some cinnamon twig powder added to it. The amount is very small, and it is difficult for ordinary people to detect it."

"Guizhi, no wonder, it all makes sense."

Tang Xueyao's beautiful little face became a little solemn, "The palace maid put the flower on her head. If she didn't come into contact with his sap rhizomes, just smelling the smell would not cause the pregnant woman to show signs of miscarriage in a short time."

"But if you add a little cinnamon twig, the effect will be different."

Speaking of this, her expression changed, and after looking at Ning Han, she asked someone to bring over the pastries on her seat for Dr. Zhou to try.

"Back to Princess, this is just an ordinary jujube paste cake."

It seems that the murderer’s target tonight is only Ji Susu, so who is it?

On the other side, Concubine Xin learned the truth and immediately summoned everyone in the imperial dining room.

"Chang Decai, who made these pastries?"

The father-in-law, who was the steward of the Royal Study, whose legs were weak when asked, pointed to a woman tremblingly and said: "Hui, Hui, Madam, this jujube paste cake is Grandma Si's specialty, she made all these."

Aunt Si trembled when she was pointed at, and her slender eyes glanced randomly from time to time.

Concubine Xin slapped her on the face, "Slave, tell me, who told you to do this?"

Si Momo covered her swollen face and said bravely, "This old slave has been working hard to make cakes, so how could he know what osmanthus twigs are?"

Tang Xueyao threw a bag of paper bags in front of her with a cold expression: "I just sent someone to find it at the foot of your bed."

When the woman saw the oily paper bag on the ground, she suddenly panicked, knelt down on her knees, and begged for mercy: "Mother, please, let me go, I will be forced to do this as a last resort."

Concubine Xin stepped forward with scarlet eyes, grabbed the woman's neck, and shouted sternly: "Who forced you to tell me the truth, otherwise, I will cut you into pieces with a thousand knives."

After all, Concubine Shu couldn't sit still anymore. As soon as she walked over, a hint of darkness flashed across her eyes.

"Yes, you must tell the truth, otherwise, I will ask the guards around you to kill you."

When Grandma Si heard this, her expression changed drastically, and her muddy eyes were filled with tears.

Upon seeing this, Tang Xueyao looked at Concubine Shu with inquiring eyes.

The murderer is Concubine Shu?
