The princess planned in her mind - using Li Yao's poisoning to bring down Shen Wei, or any of the concubines, would not be a loss.
King Yan naturally didn't believe that Shen Wei would do these things.
But Shen Wei gave Li Yao some cold cake and was forced to get involved in the dispute.
The palace doctor was late in arriving, so Prince Yan sent someone to the Liuli Pavilion to invite Shen Wei over.
...
In Liuli Pavilion, Shen Wei was enjoying steamed sea bass happily. It was hot and stuffy outside, but cool inside. She didn't have to serve Prince Yan dinner or perform, so she was very comfortable.
The weather is too hot and humid tonight, the wind is blowing, and the birds are flying low. There will be a heavy rain tonight. Shen Wei also planned to go to the yard after dinner to pick the ripe red tomatoes to prevent them from being knocked to the ground by the heavy rain.
Cai Ping came hurriedly and whispered something into Chen Wei's ear. Rumors spread quickly in the palace, and Cai Ping's gossip network in the palace soon reached Shen Wei's ears about Li Yao's poisoning.
"Poisoned?" Chen Wei calmly put down her chopsticks and said to Cai Ping, "Do you know how to deal with it?"
Cai Ping nodded, her dark eyes showing intelligence: "Master, Madam Liu has brought people to look for you, and they are probably almost at the gate of the courtyard. Master, don't worry, Sister Cai Lian and I have divided the work. Cai Lian and Jixiang have already gone to look for those who have eaten the cold cakes today, and they are waiting for your summons at any time. Madam Rong and the others are guarding the Liuli Pavilion to prevent any emergencies."
Shen Wei was very satisfied.
The maids and eunuchs of Liuli Pavilion became smarter under Shen Wei's careful teaching.
An excellent company team not only needs a smart boss at the helm, but also a group of capable employees to support it. In the future, if Chen Wei encounters trouble and is unable to show up to handle matters, Cai Lian and Cai Ping will be able to solve the problems of Liuli Pavilion on their own.
With everyone working together as one, and working together to solve problems, this is an excellent team that is taking shape day by day.
A moment later, Nanny Liu, who was beside the princess, came to the Liuli Pavilion in a threatening manner.
Shen Wei seemed surprised, the chopsticks in her hand fell to the ground with a snap, her expression was very flustered: "Madame Liu, what happened when you visited at night?"
Seeing Shen Wei's cowardly appearance, Madam Liu felt contempt in her heart.
What if she is the daughter of a farmer and is favored? It will collapse if it encounters strong winds and waves.
"Master Shen, the prince wants to see you." Madam Liu said in a cold tone.
Chen Wei stood up stiffly, took Cai Ping with her, and carefully followed Aunt Liu away.
The sky grew darker, the air became sultry, and low-flying birds chirped in the sky. The whistling wind made the trees rustle, a heavy rain was about to come, and Shen Wei stepped into the brightly lit courtyard.
King Yan saw Shen Wei walking in from afar.
She was wearing thin clothes and had a slender figure, swaying in the howling night wind. How could such a thin and frail woman be the murderer?
King Yan gently helped Shen Wei, who was bowing, up and let her sit on the chair.
"Prince, Princess, has something happened?" Shen Wei seemed to have no idea what was going on and asked cautiously.
When the princess saw Shen Wei's silly and cute look, most of her doubts were reduced. No matter how stupid Shen Wei was, she couldn't possibly poison someone in public.
The maid who served Li Yao briefly told Shen Wei the matter. Shen Wei was shocked after hearing this. She subconsciously looked at King Yan and stammered, "Your Highness...I did meet Sister Yao this afternoon...but the cold cake was really not poisonous, and I ate a lot myself."
Madam Liu sneered and said sternly, "Perhaps you poisoned Master Yao's bowl, and the bowl you ate was not poisoned."
Shen Wei seemed confused.
Cai Ping knelt down and said quickly, "Your Highness, Princess, please understand! It is very hot this afternoon. My master is kind-hearted and saw that the servants in the palace were tired and overworked, so he asked me to share all the extra cold cakes with everyone. With so many eyes watching, how dare the master poison Master Yao!"
"Dozens of people ate the cold cakes, but they were not poisoned! This shows that Master Yao's poisoning had nothing to do with my master! If the prince and princess do not believe it, feel free to call all the servants who ate the cold cakes today to question them."
The servants who had eaten the cold cakes could appear at any time to testify for Shen Wei.
The princess frowned secretly.
What a coincidence! He even distributed the cold cakes to many servants?
Prince Yan couldn't bear to see Shen Wei being wronged, and said in a deep voice: "Let's put the investigation of the real culprit aside for now, the most urgent task is to cure Yao'er. Fugui, go and urge them again, when will the palace doctor arrive--"
After a pause, as if he had thought of a suitable candidate, King Yan ordered: "Fugui, go to the East Garden and invite Dr. Mo."
In order to cure his elder brother, the Crown Prince,'s illness, Prince Yan has been searching for Dr. Mo in the past few years. We just found Doctor Mo today and brought him to the palace for temporary placement.
With Dr. Mo here, there is no need for the court physician to treat Li Yao.
The wealthy steward hurried out to invite someone.
Shen Wei sat obediently beside King Yan, sipping a cup of mint tea in her hand. I was thinking about the great doctor Mo mentioned by King Yan.
It has been several months since she came to this world, and Shen Wei has learned that there is a mysterious doctor named Mo in the world. This man's medical skills are extremely sophisticated and he is known as the world's number one doctor.
During the hunting in Dongshan, Madam Sun also mentioned that she had received three detoxification pills from Doctor Mo.
Before Doctor Mo arrived, two thin figures stumbled in. They are Li Chengke and Li Chengzhen.
When the two boys heard that Li Yao was poisoned, they ignored their homework and hurried to visit her. Li Chengke was a little older and still remembered to pay his respects to the King of Yan and the Queen. He asked dryly, "Father, Mother, how is Sister Yao?"
Prince Yan patted Li Chengke on the shoulder and said comfortingly: "It's good that you still remember to visit your sister at this time."
