"Jiaruo!"
The queen looked at the personal maid beside her. Her daily life and diet were all taken care of by a dedicated person, so there should be no mistakes.
"In reply to Miss Bai, Her Majesty's daily meals are prepared in the palace's small kitchen. All meals are supervised from the raw materials, so there should be no problem."
"As for this special food..."
The palace maid Jiaruo followed Bai Shu's thoughts and thought carefully.
Suddenly, she thought of something.
"Recently, the Imperial Kitchen has been preparing cool, summer-cooling desserts for the ladies of each palace. Sometimes it's mung bean soup, sometimes it's osmanthus icy jelly, and today it's sherbet."
"Your Majesty, this is the only food that is not made in our palace!"
Jiaruo looked at the queen anxiously,
The Queen is young and treats her servants well on weekdays, and even rewards them during festivals.
Moreover, the backgrounds of all the palace maids and eunuchs are under the control of the Queen. It stands to reason that no one would easily betray her for money.
Therefore, the sorbet sent from the imperial kitchen became the biggest suspicious point.
"Is there any sherbet left? Go get it and show it to Miss Bai!"
The little emperor beside him, upon hearing Jiaruo's words, immediately understood. He waved his hand and gave the order:
In fact, he wanted to show off in front of the queen, even if it was to atone for his sins.
After all, he was the one who distrusted her first, so it was understandable that no one paid any attention to him now.
"Your Majesty, the Empress broke out in a rash right after lunch, so the rest of her lunch is still untouched. I'll bring it to you right away."
Jiaruo did as she was told.
But when she was about to go to the small kitchen, she was stopped by Bai Shu.
"Your Majesty, please consider the intentions of the person who framed you. And whether she chose to use the fake pregnancy drug because she knew something inside."
"So is the person with the problem someone close to you?"
Every question Bai Shu asked reminded the Queen that sherbet was indeed the special food for the day.
But the reason why the person who framed her chose fake pregnancy drugs was because he knew that she and the emperor had not slept together, right?
The cleverness of the fake pregnancy drug is that the doctors in the Imperial Hospital will not notice it, and it will only be exposed when the sun gets longer.
If the Queen had not been allergic to peach kernels today, and Bai Shu had not discovered the fake pregnancy medicine,
I'm afraid the queen can't clear herself even if she jumps into the Yellow River. When the fake pregnancy drug is exposed one day, where will the queen be?
Therefore, the person who framed him must be someone who knew the inside story!
This sentence was like a revelation to the empress and the little emperor. The emperor issued another order.
"Go, bring over all the lunch the Queen has eaten and have Miss Bai check it one by one."
The Queen actually realized what was happening. Her face turned pale. She was about to give Jiaruo an order, but the Emperor got there first.
Then she added,
"Call all the palace servants to the door. No one can go out."
What the queen is worried about now is that the lunch has been tampered with. If it cannot be detected, the clue will definitely be lost.
"Your Majesty, the Emperor has immediately taken control of the people in the palace, and they will not appear..."
Jiaruo saw the Queen's worry and told her the truth.
As she spoke, she felt something was wrong. She glanced at the little emperor and quickly shut up.
The little emperor was somewhat panic-stricken and at a loss.
He first clenched his right fist, put it to his mouth and coughed twice, then touched his nose guiltily.
I thought to myself, if you really think about it, this can’t be blamed on him, right?
How could he not be anxious when he suddenly heard the news that the queen was pregnant and had a rash? There was nothing wrong with temporarily controlling everyone in the palace, right?
But he saw that the queen finally looked at him, but her eyes, which had originally been full of radiance, now contained a hint of resentment.
He gave in instantly and said awkwardly,
"I gave this order out of concern for the Empress's health. From now on, the Empress will make the final decision."
The little emperor looked a little uncomfortable. No matter what, he had to calm the queen down first.
Seeing her face as pale as a piece of paper, he felt an inexplicable worry in his heart.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Jiaruo, please bring some food here yourself."
The Queen glanced at the Emperor calmly and then ordered Jiaruo,
She originally thought that no one in the palace would have ulterior motives, but now it seems that this is not the case.
But Jiaruo was brought from her mother's home, and they had lived together for more than ten years. Not only did they have a deep relationship, but Jiaruo's indenture and family were all at her mother's home.
Therefore, since Jiaruo is the person she trusts the most, she can rest assured in doing anything she asks her to do.
"Yes, my lady."
Jia Ruo accepted the order and withdrew.
The little emperor, who had a strong desire to survive and was also very perceptive, quickly stepped forward to support the queen.
This time the queen did not refuse, and Bai Shu tactfully took her hand away, stepped aside, and waited for Jiaruo.
[It seems that the royal family's beauty is ingrained in their bones. Not only is Xiao Moqing's appearance truly stunning, but even the little emperor is quite handsome.]
Bai Shu thought secretly in her heart that the royal family members were all very good-looking, and the eldest princess was also very beautiful.
Needless to say, the Queen has a dignified and majestic beauty. The future little prince and princess will definitely be good.
The little emperor is about to turn fifteen years old. Standing next to the empress, they are a perfect match, with their talent and beauty.
Bai Shu stood quietly aside.
Xiao Moqing's eyes never left her.
Whether it is her determined medical skills, her calm analysis, or her humble and unyielding debate,
Every aspect of it deeply touched Xiao Moqing's heart.
Just because he hasn't made a move yet doesn't mean he doesn't want to or isn't sure.
Instead, they are hunters lurking in the bushes, waiting for an opportunity to strike. They will not attack easily because they are waiting for the right moment.
Once the time is right, the strike will hit the target.
Bai Shu seemed to feel this ray of fiery gaze, and slightly turned sideways to look at Xiao Moqing.
Looking at that person with clear eyes, what he got was a determined smile.
…
"Miss Bai, all the dishes that the Queen had at noon are here."
"It's hot in the summer, and your Majesty has no appetite, so she doesn't eat much."
Jiaruo personally brought over a tray with six small bowls containing food, cakes, sorbet, and tea.
The amount is not large, but it is enough for Bai Shu to verify.
"Is this what the Queen eats for lunch? Is this how you take care of my Queen?"
The little emperor frowned when he saw the bland dishes in front of Jiaruo, and his voice was filled with anger.
She is the queen after all, how can she be so casual about lunch?
Not only can I not see a piece of meat, but there are only two dishes?
The queen is the master of the harem. Is there anyone who can bully her?
"Your Majesty, please forgive me. The kitchen is researching new dishes every day. I hope Your Majesty can have a few more bites..."
Jiaruo was frightened by the little emperor's anger and knelt down to admit her fault. Her voice was trembling.
Their duty is to serve the Queen well. The way they look now, they will definitely be punished.
