Marrying Mrs. Hou and making a living by relying on her circle of food friends

Gu Yunyue's tone was gentle, but she just stared at Doctor Liu's eyes, wishing to stare him out of a hole.

From the beginning, she felt that what Dr. Liu said was contradictory, but after all, he was a master in the medical field, and of course she, a little cook, couldn't question him.

But now that she had evidence, she could confront him.

"This..." Doctor Liu hesitated, not forgetting to look at the queen who was standing aside, and didn't say anything for a long time.

Gu Yunyue did not wait for him to continue speaking, but chuckled and shook his head, then said to His Majesty: "Your Majesty, since this is a medicinal diet for the Thirteenth Prince, I naturally have to be careful. Therefore, a bowl was served in advance. I personally tasted that bowl and found nothing out of the ordinary. The problem lies in the rest. Since this medicated meal was finally handled by Taiyuan Hospital, the problem naturally lies in it. It’s too high in the hospital.”

"Mr. Liu, what do you think?"

After she finished speaking, she didn't forget to look at Doctor Liu who was standing aside.

Doctor Liu was already panicking. He immediately knelt on the ground and denied it: "I don't know... I don't know, Your Majesty, this medicinal meal was made in the imperial kitchen. Maybe it was done by those people. How can you directly suspect it?" Where is your body?"

Gu Yunyue shook her head: "Why are Dr. Liu so nervous? I didn't say that this matter has anything to do with you. I just asked for your opinion."

She didn't need to remind them, everyone present naturally had an idea in mind when they saw Doctor Liu's appearance.

When the queen saw his panic, she was afraid that Doctor Liu would confess herself out of fear.

She quickly winked at Ru Xin and said, "Hurry up and find a scapegoat. This matter must not be traced to me."

"Yes." Ru Xin looked around and immediately retreated furtively.

It's just that this little move by the two of them happened to catch Su Qilin's eyes.

When the emperor heard this, he felt like a mirror in his mind. There was actually someone in the palace who dared to poison the Thirteenth Prince. If a thorough investigation was not carried out, the majesty of the dynasty would be completely lost.

"Fang Sheng, go check it out for me!" He said seriously, "Not only the imperial dining room, but also the imperial hospital must be checked. If you find any clues, report them all."

"Yes!" Fang Sheng responded and immediately retreated.

……

The waiting time is always anxious.

Gu Yunyue was so scared that she rubbed her hands together. It would be fine if the matter was revealed, but if there was no evidence, she might not be able to protect her innocence.

Su Qilin cast a comforting look at her.

Fortunately, Fang Sheng's legs and feet were quick and he brought the person here quickly.

He handed over the things in his hand and said: "Your Majesty, this is a medicine bag found from the house of the eunuch in charge of the imperial kitchen. I have asked someone from the imperial hospital to take a look at it. This is a laxative. It will be good if you eat it. Vomiting and diarrhea during meetings are consistent with the Thirteenth Prince’s symptoms.”

Hearing this, the emperor nodded, and then looked at the chief eunuch.

The eunuch in charge of the royal kitchen carefully glanced at the queen, and then knelt down to apologize: "Your Majesty, calm down, your Majesty, calm down, I did not mean to harm the Thirteenth Prince."

This straightforward admission shocked Gu Yunyue.

If this man had just made some excuses, she might still believe that he had administered the medicine. To admit it directly like that would clearly mean something was wrong. "Don't you want to defend yourself?" Gu Yunyue asked directly.

The head eunuch's back was already soaked with cold sweat, and he stammered: "I...I have been caught by you, so...of course the only way is to plead guilty."

His eyes were a little evasive, and he was clearly lying.

However, since he had accepted the Queen's benefits, he naturally had to accept this path.

The emperor did not speak in time, but waited for the investigation results of others. However, others found nothing at all. Even Gu Yunyue, who should have been the most suspicious, found everything clean.

"In that case -" he saw the trembling head eunuch kneeling on the ground and asked, "Why do you want to harm the Thirteenth Prince?"

The chief eunuch naturally knew that it would be difficult for people to believe this if he couldn't explain it clearly, and in any case, he would only die. It would be better to take the opportunity to go crazy, so that the emperor would no longer be suspicious of others. In this way, the queen would also be sure Will treat his family well.

Thinking of this, he immediately burst into laughter: "Of course I hurt him just to make you have a hard time - hahahaha, you people from the royal family don't take us slaves seriously at all, I If you are resentful, you will naturally have to suffer."

"I am the head chef. No matter how many people want to eat the food I cook, you still have to hold some kind of cooking competition every year. Isn't this a joke for everyone to see me? In this case, then I will call you all Don’t even think about it!”

After saying this, he seemed to have lost his mind.

Fang Sheng was afraid that this man would take the opportunity to hurt the emperor, so he immediately asked the guards to pull him down, but the head eunuch was still chattering.

"Death with a stick." The emperor waved his hand and sentenced the chief eunuch to death in one sentence, "As for Imperial Physician Liu, your failure to find out the real illness of the thirteenth prince has really damaged the reputation of the imperial physician. From today on, I will remove you from your position as imperial physician and you will never be able to enter the palace again."

Doctor Liu was also pulled down.

And Gu Yunyue's innocence was completely restored.

Su Qilin knew what Gu Yunyue was thinking and immediately said: "Your Majesty, since Mrs. Hou is innocent, why not reinstate her position as a special imperial cook."

"Okay." His Majesty nodded, "This is as it should be. From now on, you will only be responsible for the meals of the Thirteenth Prince, and you no longer have to be confined to the Marquis Mansion."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

In this way, this farce has come to an end.

……

Gu Yunyue finally proved her innocence, her body and mind were relaxed, she took a hot bath and fell asleep directly.

But Su Qilin had another doubt in his mind - the Queen's actions today were clearly related to the drugging!

The Thirteenth Prince has been in the palace for so many years. If the Queen wanted to attack him, there would be an opportunity anytime and anywhere. There was no need to borrow Gu Yunyue's hand. What's more, the Thirteenth Prince was only given laxatives. This shows that from the beginning, The queen's target is Gu Yunyue.

But what's the connection?
"Master Hou." His subordinate appeared in time.

Su Qilin's face was solemn: "What happened to the matter you were asked to investigate earlier? Who does the Queen hate so much?" (End of Chapter)
