I am visibly aging. Look, my eyelids are drooping, my skin is loose, and my nasolabial folds are showing."
The queen looked at Luo's smooth skin and was filled with envy.
This Luo family looks as if they had taken some magical elixir and looks very young.
The skin looks smoother and more tender than an egg.
And fair.
It makes people jealous just by looking at it.
"I don't know why, but Yun Fei and I have aged drastically this year, and our looks have faded..."
[The reason why the Queen and Concubine Yun aged so rapidly was because they were poisoned. ]
Mu Yan’s voice.
Luo paused abruptly when he heard this.
Poisoned?
No wonder my daughter complained that the air in the palace was filled with the smell of palace fighting as soon as she entered it.
How dare someone poison the queen, the mother of the country?
At this moment, a palace maid came with rice wine meatballs.
"Your Majesty, these are the rice wine balls that Concubine Shu made herself. Let me bring them to Your Majesty to taste."
"Also, this is the rouge and powder that Concubine Shu bought from the Western Regions. Your skin will become better after using it."
[Empress, don't drink this fermented rice pill! It's poisonous!]
Luo: What?! Concubine Shu wants to poison the Queen?
[This Concubine Shu took advantage of the Empress's greed and found ways to make all kinds of delicious food for her.]
[If the Queen only eats the delicacies made by Concubine Shu, it won’t matter, but if she also uses the rouge and powder given by Concubine Shu, her skin will age visibly, and her figure will become out of shape…]
Luo: This palace fight is really bizarre!
[Is this emperor an old pervert? Does he only like young and beautiful concubines? If so, then the aging concubines are just like being banished to the cold palace...]
Luo was so frightened that she stopped holding Mu Yan's arms, and Yan almost fell down.
Fortunately, she reacted quickly.
Daughter, stop talking nonsense!
How dare you say that the emperor is a pervert?
Ordinary men like young and beautiful women, let alone an emperor with three thousand beauties in his harem...
"Oh, Concubine Shu is thoughtful."
The Queen Mother loves to eat it. Recently, due to her aging, she has become less confident. Whenever someone sends her rouge and powder, she wants to try it.
The Queen picked up the fermented rice balls and was about to take a bite.
In a hurry, Luo rushed forward and accidentally bumped into the Queen Mother, who slipped and lost her grip on the bowl.
The fermented glutinous rice balls were scattered all over the floor.
Luo hurriedly apologized, "Please forgive me, Queen. I have been taking care of the baby day and night, which has caused me to have anemia. I offended you, Queen!"
The silver needle in his hand also fell onto the fermented rice balls scattered on the ground.
"You bold and shrewd woman! How dare you knock over the glutinous rice balls that Concubine Shu carefully prepared for Empress Queen! What crime should she be punished for?" The personal maidservant beside Concubine Shu scolded when she saw the glutinous rice balls being knocked over.
This was personally instructed by Concubine Shu, who wanted the Empress to eat it with her own eyes.
Fortunately, I only poured out one bowl and there is still some in the stew pot.
The Queen Mother was also confused by Luo's actions.
But a mere bowl of rice wine meatballs was not enough to make one so angry.
The Queen waved her hand and said, "It's okay. The General's wife was just careless. She's tired from taking care of the child, so it's normal for her to be unsteady when she stands up."
"Empress, I'll give you another bowl of these fermented rice balls," said the maid.
The Queen nodded.
But Luo stopped her, "You are just a little palace maid, why are you so worried about whether the queen will eat the fermented rice balls? Is there something special in the fermented rice balls?"
After hearing what Luo said, the Queen yawned and asked, "Luo, what do you mean?"
The palace maid was frightened by the sudden question.
After all, the woman in front of him is the most noble woman in the world, the Queen!
She can't afford to offend him.
"Are you suspecting that our Concubine Shu wants to harm the Queen?" asked the maid.
But he didn't know that he had fallen into Luo's trap.
But Luo said, "Look what this is?"
Luo pointed at the silver needle on the ground that had turned black.
She said to Yun Mo Ran, "Mo Ran, help me pick up the silver needle."
After hearing this, Yun Moyan bent down and picked up the silver needle.
The silver needle had turned black at this time.
The Queen looked at it and her face darkened.
Upon seeing this, the maid knelt down and kowtowed, "Please spare my life, Queen! I know nothing. It was Queen Consort Shu who asked me to bring this to the Queen to taste..."
The Queen slammed her face and slammed the table, "How dare you, Concubine Shu! How dare you poison me! Someone, come! Capture Concubine Shu!"
"Yes!" Several figures suddenly jumped out!
[The Queen is so reckless! She should go to the Concubine Shu in person, because there is something big going on with the Concubine Shu! ]
Luo: Well, what’s the big news? Tell me quickly, daughter!
Mu Zishi on the side also thought secretly: What melon?
[Empress Shufei has a male lover, and that male lover is a eunuch who has not yet been castrated! ]
[At this moment, they are making love on Concubine Shu's bed~ It's so exciting. If they can catch them in adultery, they can kill Concubine Shu and her entire clan for this crime! Concubine Shu can completely put the blame on the palace maids to get away with it by poisoning the fermented rice balls...]
[If this Concubine Shu is not removed, she will corrupt the harem in the future...]
[I really want to watch this lively drama~]
Luo: Oh my god, what a big news! Concubine Shu is so openly cheating on the emperor?
Mu Zishi: The emperor is a little cuckolded.
"Empress, why don't you go to Concubine Shu's bedroom in person to hold her accountable?" Luo bowed and said.
The Queen Mother looked at Luo Shi, "Luo Shi, why do you say that?"
Luo said, "If someone is sent to invite Concubine Shu, then on the way here, Concubine Shu will definitely guess that the matter has been exposed, and will think of a plan to deal with it and get away with it. She can put the blame on the palace maid. After all, the death of a palace maid is a good thing for her family. In order to worship the dead, Concubine Shu will definitely take care of her family..."
When the Queen Mother saw that it was Luo who first discovered that the wine-fermented balls were poisonous, she thought what she said made sense.
And this is the lowest level of palace fighting.
How come she, as the queen, didn't see it?
I was too rash just now.
After listening to Luo's suggestion, the Queen Mother immediately moved to Concubine Shu's bedroom.
[If we also notify the emperor to come, then there will be something interesting to watch~]
Luo: Daughter, your request is too high, but mother will mention it to the Queen Mother.
Luo said, "Empress, why don't you let His Majesty come and judge the matter together? Concubine Shu is deeply favored by His Majesty, but she actually did such a thing. I'm sure His Majesty must be very sad..."
The Empress then sent someone to inform the Emperor, saying that Concubine Shu was not feeling well. The Emperor, who had been infatuated with Concubine Shu recently, immediately went to Concubine Shu's bedroom upon hearing that she was not feeling well.
As for Concubine Shu's bedroom, there were only two palace maids guarding the main gate.
When the palace maid saw that it was the Queen who had arrived, she knelt down and kowtowed, then went in to inform the Concubine Shu.
Unexpectedly, he was stopped by the Queen.
Moreover, when the Queen arrived, no word was given.
It was quiet in Concubine Shu's bedroom. There was no palace maid or nanny to be seen.
While the Queen was wondering, a series of unbearable voices came from the palace:
"Good man, hurry up, I'm starving!"
"Madam Shufei, where are you hungry?"
