Traveling through: I rely on space to raise the sick Wei Wang

Chapter 96 Who's Heart
Xu Ruqing took a look at the pretentious Aunt Zhang, and felt extremely annoyed.

Xu Ruqing's voice was a little cold: "If the lord thinks there is something wrong with the dinner prepared by my concubine, you might as well ask someone who understands it to test it, and my concubine will never say anything."

She has a clear conscience, every dish is made by herself from beginning to end, and she is very clear about whether there is any problem.

Su Yichen was taken aback, and couldn't help but look at her. For some reason, when he heard Xu Ruqing say this, he felt that her tone was full of alienation.

He pursed his lips: "Of course this king can trust you."

Just as he was about to summon his servants to investigate Su Yian's daily life, Aunt Zhang interrupted again. "My lord, I feel that the most important thing right now is to find out the cause of Xiaoshizi's poisoning. Since Xiaoshizi fell ill suddenly during dinner, we should start to investigate from the dinner. The princess is Xiaoshizi's. Birth mother, shouldn't you misplace those who interfered in order to prove your innocence?"

As she said that, Aunt Zhang glanced at Xu Ruqing inexplicably. The meaning in her eyes seemed to say, if you dare not agree with what I said, it must be because you have done something shameful with a guilty conscience.

"The princess said that she prepared the food by herself, so there's no need to ask for trouble." He seemed to understand why Xu Ruqing's cold tone was because of him, maybe it was because he had doubted her just now?
He is also willing to believe her, but...

Aunt Zhang still didn't give up: "Oh, don't bother me, my lord, I have already asked the maid beside me to call Langzhong Xiao, and she will be here soon, and it won't take long."

While speaking, a man wearing a purple python robe and carrying a wooden medicine box on his waist came in from the door.He looked left and right, shocked by the glory and wealth of the palace, and praised again and again.

Aunt Zhang saw him as soon as she raised her eyes, and immediately put a smile on her face: "No, Cao Cao Cao Cao is here."

"Craftsman Xiao Lian, see the prince and concubine, and see Mrs. Zhang." Xiao Lian bowed his hands and said to the three.

When the matter developed to this point, Xu Ruqing also understood that it had to be tested.

Maybe Su Yichen didn't mean that, but Aunt Zhang seemed to insist on herself, and even arranged for Xiao Lian to come over in advance, why didn't she know when Aunt Zhang was so considerate?
"Then there is Mr. Lao Xiao." Anyway, she wanted to see what kind of tricks Aunt Zhang was playing.

Su Yichen's eyebrows behind the mask slightly frowned, he pursed his lips and didn't say anything, it was a tacit consent to Xu Ruqing's words.

Xiao Lian smiled politely, and then came to the center of the room.Soon the maids were ordered to bring the leftovers from the dinner one by one. Xiao Lian wandered among the plates of delicacies, first tried them with silver needles one by one, and then put them under his nose to smell them again and again. .

Not long after, Xiao Lian came to a conclusion: "Reporting to the prince and princess, after the inspection by the grassroots, there is no poison in these foods, and they are all safe to eat."

The result was expected, Xu Ruqing was not surprised, and said: "I know, Mr. Xiao, take a rest at the side."

"The grass people obey."

After getting the result, Xu Ruqing looked at Aunt Zhang, the corners of her mouth slightly raised an arc, and there seemed to be a sarcasm in her smile: "Aunt Zhang has any other good ideas, you might as well say them together, my concubine will treat you like this." adoption."

Aunt Zhang was embarrassed when she heard the words, and wondered how Chunhua did things, and why the result was different from what she thought.

She smiled embarrassingly, she seemed to have thought of something with a clever mind, and said: "The princess is ashamed of saying this, isn't there another dish that has not been tested?"

Xu Ruqing couldn't help raising her voice when she heard this, and she looked directly at Aunt Zhang: "Oh? My concubine only made eight dishes and one soup, so where are the other dishes?"

Aunt Zhang came to the dining table, pointed to the bowl of stewed peach gum with snow swallow, and said: "If I remember correctly, this stewed peach gum with snow swallow is also a dish on the dinner table."

Seeing this, Xu Ruqing's pupils constricted slightly, she really forgot about it.

It's not because she is guilty or afraid that others will slander her, but because this thing is right under her nose, how can she be so careless, if someone really tampers with it, she will feed it to the little one herself without knowing it. Milk bag, thinking about it, I feel that I am too irresponsible.

This time, thanks to her timely treatment, if there is a next time, maybe her baby's life will be gone!

Xu Ruqing's eyes narrowed slightly, this time she didn't need Aunt Zhang to help, she took the initiative to pick up the bowl, put it under her nose and sniffed it lightly, she knew the difference after a while.

"Xiao Langzhong, come and see if there is anything wrong with it." Xu Ruqing didn't rush to announce, but turned to look at Xiao Lian and asked.

Xiao Lian stood up quickly after being called, and took a look at the empty bowl with both hands. In fact, there was not much residue left in it, only a little soup hanging on the wall of the bowl.He first smelled it, and then dipped a little bit of it with his hand and put it on the tip of his tongue to taste it carefully. The expression on his face that was visible to the naked eye gradually became serious.

"Back to Wangfei, there is indeed something wrong with this food. The poison in Xiao Shizi probably comes from here." Xiao Lian spoke slightly, his hoarse voice broke the silence in the room.

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the room became more dignified and serious.

Xu Ruqing asked again: "Then Mr. Xiao may have identified what kind of poison is in it? Is there an antidote?"

Xiao Lian thought for a while, then shook his head: "Caomin has little knowledge, so I can only know that there is no doubt that there is poison in it, but if you ask Caomin what kind of poison it is, Caomin will have no way of knowing."

Xu Ruqing had no choice but to give up after hearing the words: "I know, you can follow the housekeeper to the accountant to get the reward."

"Caomin thanked the princess."

After Xiao Lian left, Aunt Zhang approached Su Yichen as if asking for credit, with a bright smile on her wrinkled old face: "Let me just say, I'd rather kill by mistake than let it go. I really found it tricky."

Su Yichen's face is also not good-looking, because he also drank a lot of Xueyan stewed peach gum before. When he was in Rongyang Palace just now, he felt that his chest was congested and short of breath. Fortunately, he was suppressed by strong internal force, otherwise he might have already Poison died.

Now that the source of the poisoning has been found, the next step is naturally to follow the clues to find out who did the tricks inside.Su Yichen opened his mouth slightly, his voice sounded like half coming from his chest, deep and sonorous: "Who made this dish? Call everyone to me."

Xuan Ye took the order: "Yes."

All the maidservants who handled the matter were called in for questioning, among them Chunhua.

Chunhua came to Yelange with nodding her head and lowered her eyebrows. She stood among the servants, wringing her hands uneasily, looking very nervous.

Aunt Zhang gave Chunhua a look, and Chunhua understood immediately. She hesitated for a moment, then couldn't help but think of her sick mother in the country and her younger brother who was studying at a young age. She gritted her teeth, stood up and knelt down in front of Su Yichen: "My lord, don't After further investigation, all the slaves have been recruited... It is the princess, and the princess instructed the slaves to do this."
