Chapter 359 A trade-off, but it's worth it! (1)
"Your Majesty, leave." After He Xi knelt down and bowed, he withdrew.

Xiao Lin still stood still.Yun Shuo looked at Xiao Lin, whose hair and beard were all gray, and asked with a frown, "Teacher, what else do you have to say?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, the old minister heard that the empress was poisoned by a poison from the Western Regions. I wonder if the news is true or not?" Xiao Lin asked with a bow.

"It's true." Yun Shuo sighed, raised his hand and rubbed between his brows.

"Your Majesty recently dug three feet inside and outside the palace just to find out the poison?"

"It's to find out how the poison was brought into the palace." Yun Shuo said through gritted teeth, "I want to find these people and tear them into pieces."

Xiao Lin bowed and said: "Your Majesty, this kind of thing can only cost a few more lives in the end. The real murderer is hard to find. I implore Your Majesty to appease your anger and deal with this matter rationally."

"..." After Yun Shuo heard this, the veins on his forehead immediately tensed up, "You let me make big things into small things, small things into small things?"

"Your Majesty can turn this matter into a secret investigation..."

"Impossible!" Yun Shuo said angrily, "I want everyone to know that anyone who dares to plot against the Queen will have to die!"

There is a saying: In the wrath of the emperor, blood flows for thousands of miles.

The queen was poisoned, and the emperor was furious. More than 100 people in the harem were imprisoned in the palace prison for trial day and night. In addition, Wu Miao led people to search the inner warehouse non-stop, presenting gifts from envoys from various countries and princes and ministers from years ago. All the congratulatory gifts for the empress have been carefully checked.

Sure enough, with the joint efforts of Wu Miao and a group of people, among hundreds of spices in the inner warehouse, this kind of thing called "Gu Xiang" by Yao Yuanling was found, which looked like Ganoderma lucidum.This thing is mixed in the Ganoderma lucidum, so it can be completely confused with the real one. If Wei Lingfeng hadn't personally inspected it, Wu Miao would never have been able to find it.

"Check the record and see who paid the tribute to the Ganoderma lucidum!" Wu Miao roared frantically.

Someone nearby had already opened the booklet and checked it carefully: "Eunuch Wu, this is a New Year's gift from the General Hussar's House to the Empress."

"What?!" Wu Miao felt that she had gone crazy.

Wei Lingfeng was also taken aback, and grabbed the account book from the little eunuch's hand to examine it carefully. It really clearly recorded the Ganoderma lucidum, Hericium erinaceus, and Nanyang pearls sent by the Hussar General Shao Fu to the Empress. A kind of treasure as a gift of respect.

"Master Wei?" Wu Miao also came forward frantically, and grabbed the account book from Wei Lingfeng's hand: "What's going on?"

Wei Lingfeng's mind was also disturbed, he was just a person who devoted himself to the study of medical skills, and he basically didn't understand such things as officialdom and conspiracy.

Wu Miao took the account book and carefully read it three times. After making sure that she read it correctly, she took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "Master Wei, this matter must be reported to His Majesty."

"Yes, tell Your Majesty." Wei Lingfeng murmured.

The matter was reported to Yunshuo as quickly as possible.At that time, Yun Shuo happened to be watching Han Qian take the medicine in Fengzhang Palace, because the matter was of great importance, and he couldn't hide it even if he wanted to, so Wu Miao didn't shy away from empress empress, and just knelt on the ground and told the truth.

After hearing this, Han Qian immediately pushed away the medicine bowl in Yunshuo's hand and sat up, asking in surprise, "Did you make a mistake?! How could General Shao and the Great Princess harm me?!"

Regarding this matter, Yun Shuo was much calmer. He raised his hand and put Han Qian into his arms, brought the medicine bowl to his mouth again, and said lightly: "What's so strange about this? The Ganoderma lucidum offered by General Shao is also It’s impossible for him to collect it himself. Who offered it to him or who helped him buy it? Have you checked all these clearly?”

"Your Majesty is wise, this servant hastily came to report after finding out about this matter from the warehouse, and has not yet gone to General Shao's residence to inquire about it." Wu Miao replied with a bow.

Yun Shuo watched as Han Qian finished drinking the decoction and put the bowl of medicine on the small table next to him. Fang then ordered, "I will tell Han Jianyuan to handle this matter according to my order. Be sure to find out about this Gu Xiang." "

"Yes, the slave will go now." Wu Miao agreed and walked out.

"Wait a minute." Yun Shuo called the person back again, "Go and deliver the decree, asking Han Jianyuan to come to the palace."

"Yes." Wu Miao hurriedly agreed, and waited again, seeing Yun Shuo waving his hand, Fang retreated respectfully.

About the Queen's poisoning, the Dachang Princess' Mansion and Zhongyihou's Mansion had heard the news a long time ago, but the palace did not announce it, so they could only wait no matter how anxious they were.After finally looking forward to the imperial edict, Han Jianyuan left the house and went straight to the palace almost immediately after receiving the imperial edict.

Yun Shuo stayed in Fengzhang Hall all the time, even the memorials that had to be reviewed were moved into Fengzhang Hall by Wu Sibao.

Han Jianyuan followed Wu Sibao all the way from Zichen Hall to Fengzhang Hall. While waiting outside the hall for the eunuch to come in to report, he turned around and looked at the scenery outside the hall. In the weather in February, pots of winter jasmine flowers bloomed just right outside Fengzhang Hall. The bright little light yellow with a little green at the end of the branches gives people hope, and the gloomy mood is rarely clear.

"Master Hou, Lord Long Live let you in." Wu Sibao came out from inside and said respectfully.

"How is your mother?" Han Jianyuan asked with concern.

"Your Majesty has been fine for a long time, she is just resting. Master Hou will feel at ease when he goes in and see you." Wu Sibao said, and went forward to draw the curtain.

After Han Jianyuan entered Fengzhang Hall, he stopped in the main hall of the main hall, bowed to the inside, and said in a loud voice: "Mr. Han Jianyuan sees Your Majesty, sees Empress Empress, Your Majesty, Empress Empress Jin An."

"Pingshen, come in and talk." The emperor's voice came from behind the heavy curtain.

A court lady came up to lift up the curtain, and Han Jianyuan got up and entered after thanking him. He closed the curtain lightly through a layer of bead curtains. It is vaguely shrouded in haze.

The spring is cold, and the queen's dormitory is still full of earth dragons. The hall is sparse and bright, and there are various melons and fruits. The fragrance of fruit.

Han Jianyuan stood on the extremely thick velvet blanket, and through the bead curtain, he faintly saw his sister lying on the phoenix couch and the emperor sitting next to him.He stopped there and never went any further.

"Brother." Han Qian supported Yun Shuo's hand to get off the couch, and came out from behind the bead curtain.

"Empress." Han Jianyuan hurriedly bowed his hands.

"Brother, get up." Han Qian raised his hand to support Han Jianyuan, and asked with concern, "How are mother and father?"

"The second elder is very good." Han Jianyuan nodded and said, "My family didn't dare to tell them about the matter of the empress, and they kept it a secret."

"That's good. I'm just afraid that the two of them will be worried if they find out." Han Qian breathed a sigh of relief, then turned her head and lightly scolded Apple, "Why haven't you served tea yet?"
