Chapter 88
Xia Xuan entered the Punishment Department for five days, but he couldn't bear the punishment and died in the Punishment Department.She refused to admit that she poisoned the second prince until she died.

The matter was left alone, and the emperor rewarded Kebi and the second prince as appeasement.

It was very rare for Kebi to receive rewards, and this time the reward was even more aggrieved.

She sent Ming Zhong away, and the moment she turned around, her whole face darkened, "Is there no clue yet, who poisoned Ah Xing?"

"The servant girl checked all the palace people around the second prince, only the eunuch who tried the dishes that day had a problem..." Luo Dai replied tremblingly, not daring to look at the face of the master.

"Slap," Ke Bin slapped her head, causing Luo Dai to take a few steps back, "Trash!"

All the palace people around Kebi knelt down, and Kebi felt that his anger could not be dispelled, so he swept away the things on the table.

"Dare to plot against Ah Xing, I will definitely take her skin off!"

She has always been the only one who plots against others, but this time the person who made the move almost killed the second prince, and immediately ran into Kebi's Ni Lin.

The matter of the second prince being poisoned was really not directed and acted by Kebi. Kebi would not use the second prince as a target when she played tricks, let alone something as difficult to control as poisoning.Kebi absolutely did not believe that it was the Xia family who did it. The Xia family had no grievances or enmities with her, and there was no reason.

Who will it be?Queen?No, if the queen wants to get rid of the second prince, why wait until now?
Concubine Yi?In terms of threats, the third prince is the biggest obstacle to the throne, no matter how bad it is, there is still an eldest prince ahead of Ah Xing.

Kebi is still selecting concubines, but Fang Meiren is proud of herself.

Fang Meiren went to bed last night, the emperor took pity on her and asked the eunuch next to her to go to Fengyi Palace to give her leave, so she got up.

Ding Xiang came in with water and waited for Fang Meiren to wash up, "Eunuch Ming Zhong just went to Jingning Palace to give a reward."

Fang Meiren put her plain and slender hands into the warm water, with a mocking face all over her face, "I let her take advantage of it once."

"Master, Kebi, she can't...?" Ding Xiang's words were cut off in Fang Meiren's eyes.

After a long while, Fang Mei sneered, "She is not benevolent and I am not righteous. I joined hands with her, listened to her, and became the prodigy. But she soaked everything she gave me in musk, trying to make me not Fertility, forever attached to her."

Fang Meiren became angrier as she spoke, she kept the comb in her hand on the dressing table, and lightly brushed her face with her fingers, "She is jealous of me, I have the grace that she can't envy the most, in time, wait for me to give birth to a child and a half." Girl, why worry about not having me in the position of the ninth concubine?!"

"Kebi has long been out of favor, how can she compare with the master."

The bead chain swayed slightly, and Iris came in from the outside after waiting for a while. She walked straight to Fang Meiren's side without stopping, and lowered her voice, "Beauty, the servant has already taken care of it."

When Fang Meiren heard what Iris said, her expression softened a little.Then he remembered something, frowned and gave Yuanwei a sideways glance, "Next time you are so negligent in handling things, you can go back to Fuchu."

Embarrassment flashed across Iris's face, and she didn't expect that court lady to be so careless.She gave that court lady so much money that she couldn't manage to put a veil around Concubine Yi.

"The slave looks at her smart, and the background is simple." Iris wanted to defend herself, but was stopped by Ding Xiang's hint of shaking her head, "The slave will definitely not miss again next time, please rest assured, master."

"Next time? How can there be so many next times? Concubine Yi is strictly guarded inside and out. Where can I find such a good opportunity?"

Fang Meiren also knew in her heart that Iris could not be blamed for this matter, the court lady was still able to adapt to the situation, and she didn't put the veil on her body for people to find out.But Fang Meiren was still not reconciled, and such a good plan of killing two birds with one stone was in vain.

"Forget it, let's not move for now, and stop staring at Lingxi Palace. Concubine Yi is always alert, so it would be bad if she noticed."

It was March, when the first snow melted, it was a good thing for the earth to return to spring, but there was news from the south that the long river burst due to the melting snow.

Xie Xiao attached great importance to this matter, and summoned the ministers into the palace overnight, and the conversation lasted for three days.No matter how severe the embankment of the long river breaks, refugees will be born, and if the food cannot keep up, people will starve to death, which will lead to epidemics, and things will happen in a big way.

After leaving the palace, the minister of the Ministry of Industry took the officials of the Ministry of Industry and went directly to the south, followed by the grain escorted by the Imperial Army, accompanied by several imperial doctors from the Imperial Hospital, and several officials from the Dali Temple, including Gu Huasi .

When Gu Panfu received the news, she sighed softly, "It seems that my brother's marriage will be postponed."

Gu Huasi's marriage was originally scheduled for March, and it will be a good day in five or six days.But the emperor's order cannot be violated, and it is a good thing that Gu Huasi is reused, so I can only wrong the young lady of Ouyang's family.

"Whether it's a war or a natural disaster, only the people will suffer in the end. I hope it's not a serious situation. When my brother comes back safely, I will give my sister-in-law more dowry."

"Your Majesty, don't worry. When I was a child, the Changhe River broke its embankment." Hanlu helped Gu Panfu pinch her legs, "At that time, I heard from the old man at home that there had been no major disasters on both sides of the Changhe River for nearly a hundred years, and that time was just a disaster. As for the part of the slave's hometown, the government will quickly deal with it. The slave's family really has nothing to rely on, so he went to Beijing to ask for a living."

Gu Panfu half-closed her eyes, as if she could fall asleep at any time, and then murmured, "That's good."

Hanlu and Hanrui looked at each other, they helped the master adjust the cushion, wrapped the master with a soft blanket, and walked out of the inner room lightly.

"Your Majesty has been getting more and more lethargic lately, so... it shouldn't be a problem?" Hanlu's tone was full of hesitation, and it was only half an hour before the afternoon nap, and the master fell asleep again.

"Doctor Lu is taking the pulse. The empress is in good health, and the emperor's heir is also normal." Hanrui frowned, and she also felt uncertain.The master is pregnant, and the Lingxi Palace is tense, and the entrances used by the master have been checked many times.

"Let's observe it for a few more days. Let's check the master's things carefully."

Gu Panfu didn't sleep for a long time, Fengyi Palace came, and the queen summoned all the concubines.

Gu Panfu rubbed her forehead, feeling her mind was in a muddle.Sleeping for a while failed to dispel the drowsiness, but the eyelids became heavier.

"Your Majesty, are you feeling unwell, servant girl, please go and ask the imperial doctor."

Gu Panfu pressed her hand, "No need, go to Fengyi Palace first, and talk about it when I come back later."

The temperature outside is suitable and the air is fresh, which relieved Gu Panfu's dizziness and brain swelling. She was sure that there was something wrong in Lingxi Palace.

The Empress looked quite serious today, as if she had something serious to say.The concubines were also savvy, they had no intention of chatting, and waited obediently for the queen's orders.

"I thought about it for a while. The emperor is busy with government affairs, and we, as women in the harem, should also share the emperor's worries. The long river broke its embankment and needed food and reconstruction. I have a lot of old things myself. I took them out to exchange for some money. , It will also save a lot of treasury expenses.”

The queen brushed away the tea leaves and took a sip of tea to moisten her throat, "I called you here today to discuss with you and ask your opinions."

This is also the first time that the queen seldom has a tough attitude.Although she said she was asking for opinions, who dared to talk too much, only those who agreed.

"The empress is kind, this arrangement is the best. Not only can it relieve the emperor's worries, but it can also provide food and clothing for the people who are suffering. There are also many old things in the concubine's place, which is also a good place for them." Concubine Rongqian She smiled lightly, she was really in favor of this matter.

"Yes, although these things may be old things to us, if you take them out, someone might like them. It's not easy for the concubines to deal with them. The empress is benevolent, and the concubines can be regarded as accumulating merit. "Kebi said in a gentle voice, she was always kind on the outside, no matter how vicious she was on the inside.

"Okay, it's not in a hurry, you guys go back and tidy up for two days. Let's put the things in the Chuxiu Palace. Your Majesty, I will take credit for everyone." smiled.

Among the concubines, whether they like it or not, they have to contribute, and they have counted all their warehouses in their hearts.

On the way back, Gu Panfu looked at the buds that had just emerged from the tree, and said in a flat and gentle voice, "Hanrui, when we go back later, you and Hanlu called Qingmei Qingbi, Lu prayed for a prosperous year, and said that the palace wants Clean up the main hall."

"Your Majesty..." The two looked at each other, feeling a little nervous.

"I can trust you, I hope you don't disappoint me." Gu Panfu spoke softly, but what the servant girl couldn't see was the coldness in her eyes.

In the main hall of Lingxi Palace, Qingbi personally guards the door.The other palace people didn't come forward, and the empress ordered them to tidy things up, so they simply tidied up the main hall and side halls.

The items in the main hall are expensive, and they are all personal belongings of the empress, only the first-class and second-class palace servants that the empress trusts the most go in to clean them up.

Gu Panfu was sitting on the low bench in the outer room, Hanrui and the others were almost expressionless, they checked everywhere in the inner room, and took out all the things in the cabinet, not sparing a single corner.

Everyone tossed and tossed in the inner room for half an hour, but found nothing.

Lu Qi's gaze, involuntarily looked at the master's carved bed, and walked over.

Several people watched Lu Qi walking towards the master's bed, they were all a little strange, seeing him lift the bed, they all went up to help.

"Lu Qi, did you find something?"

Lu Qi didn't speak, and seemed determined to move the bed first, and several people worked together to move the bed away, and there was a little white powder close to the corner of the wall.

The powder is off-white, if you don't look carefully, it looks like wall ash falling from the wall.There should have been a lot of that powder, and some of it was still on the edge of the bed.

The place where Gu Panfu stayed most often since she was pregnant was the inner room, and the bed was the place where she had to sleep every night. The person who poisoned her was really vicious.

Gu Panfu looked at the things that Lu Qi presented, her expression was dim, and she said in a cold voice after a while, "Go and see where the fifth prince is."
