Chapter 152 Let Her Die Outside
"Of course." The little girl was lying on the bed, looking at her mother distressedly. After hearing Li Xing'er's words, she immediately stood up straight. "Mom, I'll go see my brother the miracle doctor off. I'll be back soon."
"Okay, don't run around, go quickly!" Jiang Yinyue touched the little girl's head and watched her run away.
Little Tuanzi ran to Li Xing'er, took her hand again, and said seriously, "Let's go, Brother Divine Doctor, I'll take you out. I remember the way to Kunning Palace very clearly."
"Okay." Li Xing'er laughed, nodded slightly to Jiang Yinyue and Wei Ranzhu, and then left with Li Suining.
After walking out of the side hall, Xiaotuanzi saw people running in and out of the yard, and she also saw a guy she didn't like very much.
She deliberately turned her head away, pretending not to see it, and quickly left with Li Xing'er.
"Li Suining!" Unexpectedly, someone not far away also noticed her and actually took the initiative to call her.
The little dumpling had to stop reluctantly and turned to look at the unpleasant guy opposite.
"Doctor Li!" The man who came was none other than Chen Shaoyou, the Junior Official of the Dali Temple, who was in charge of investigating Shangguan Jinglan's poisoning. He first greeted Li Xing'er, then lowered his head to look at the dwarf in front of him. "Why? Do you hate me so much? You turned and ran away when you saw me?"
The little girl turned her head away from him. Who had allowed him to take her grandfather away? He was clearly in cahoots with the bad guy!
Chen Shaoyou seemed to be in a good mood. He deliberately wanted to tease Li Suining. He actually squatted down, poked Li Suining's chubby face with his finger, and asked with a smile, "Do you really dislike your uncle that much?"
The little dumpling became even angrier. He rubbed his cheeks hard and glared at Chen Shaoyou angrily.
Chen Shaoyou found it even more interesting. Just as he was about to poke the little guy again, he heard Li Xinger speak.
"Master Chen, the entire palace is now focused on Kunning Palace. If you have time, you should hurry up and investigate the Queen's poisoning case. Otherwise, if the Emperor and the Crown Prince blame us, we won't be able to bear it."
Chen Shaoyou's expression instantly became serious when he heard this. He stood up and looked at Li Xing'er coldly, but could not see any clues.
After a moment, he nodded slightly and said, "Thank you, Doctor Li, for your reminder. Goodbye!"
Chen Shaoyou turned around and strode away.
"Wait a minute!" Little Dumpling suddenly stopped the person and asked angrily, "When can my grandfather come home?"
"Well..." Chen Shaoyou twitched his lips quickly, "Once we find out the truth and confirm that Master Jiang was indeed wrongly accused, he will naturally go home."
After saying that, the man turned and left again.
The little girl stamped her feet in anger, "Grandfather was wronged!"
Li Xing'er's smile faded a bit, and she murmured to herself, "This Lord Chen is quite patient. With such a big incident happening in the palace, he still has the energy to entertain the children. Isn't he worried that he won't be able to find the murderer and save the Empress?"
"Let's go, Xiao Suining." Soon, he returned to normal, shook Li Suining's little hand, and the two walked out together.
After walking for a while, Li Xing'er slowly asked, "Is Miss Seven scared?"
"Huh?" Li Suining looked up in confusion.
Li Xing'er looked ahead and continued, "The Queen has been poisoned. Something unexpected has happened. Is Miss Seven afraid?"
Little Dumpling blinked, hesitating whether to answer Li Xing'er. She felt that this brother, the imperial physician, seemed to know something.
"Seventh Miss is really smarter than her peers." Li Xing'er smiled, "Don't be afraid, Seventh Miss, I belong to your third brother."
"What?" The little girl was startled and just stood there motionless.
Li Xing'er was not in a hurry. He squatted down, straightened Li Suining's clothes and hair, and slowly said, "Don't worry, Miss Seventh, I will come back every day from now on. I will tell the Third Young Master everything that happens in Kunning Palace. The Third Young Master also told me that if Miss Seventh finds anything, I will tell him."
He is from Feiyun Sect. To be more precise, he is Xiao Wu'an's spy in the Imperial Hospital.
Originally, Xiao Wu told him to help pass on the message, and even hoped to get useful information from a four-year-old baby. He felt that the sect leader was a little desperate, but now, he really thinks that this guy has some ability.
"Then tell Third Brother that the Queen's poisoning might be related to that bad guy," Little Dumpling whispered quickly in Li Xing'er's ear, "It should be the Lou family's doing, but..."
Her baby voice was filled with confusion. "Why would they poison the Queen? I just don't understand."
"Don't worry, Miss Qi, I will definitely convey these words in time." Li Xing'er patted the little guy's head. "However, Miss Qi is right. If it was really Xiang Zuo who was involved, then why did they poison the Queen?"
Obviously, Li Xing'er couldn't figure this out either.
Xiaotuanzi sent the person to the gate of Kunning Palace. Li Xinger repeatedly confirmed that she could go back by herself, and then the two separated.
——
Chen Shaoyou's men searched Kunning Palace inside and out, and finally took away some things, saying that they wanted to do a final inspection.
After leaving the palace, Chen Shaoyou asked his subordinates to return to the Dali Temple first, while he secretly went to see Zuo Shanzhang and told him everything that happened in Kunning Palace.
"What?" Zuo Shanzhang slammed the table and stood up mid-sentence. "You said... Jiang Yinyue wants to ask the Queen for permission to divorce?"
"Yes!" Chen Shaoyou learned about this when he asked his wife who was attending the flower-viewing banquet. He was shocked for a while.
Seeing Zuo Shanzhang's grim expression, he thought for a moment before tentatively speaking, "Prime Minister, perhaps Jiang Yinyue couldn't accept Jiang Heci's matter, so..."
"No matter what it is, even if I want to kill her, how could she, a woman, have such thoughts?" Zuo Shanzhang snorted coldly, "It's simply outrageous."
He looked at Chen Shaoyou coldly again, "Then...what does the Queen mean?"
"It is said..." Chen Shaoyou hesitated for a moment before continuing, "It is said that before the Empress fainted... she seemed to have intended to approve this matter. However, Your Majesty, don't worry, the Empress fainted before she could finish her words, so this decree... has not yet been issued."
"It's simply ridiculous." Zuo Shanzhang was obviously very angry. He sat there without saying a word for a long time.
"Prime Minister... since you have already planned to destroy the Jiang family, why bother with them? It's not worth it to ruin your own health by getting angry." Chen Shaoyou tried to comfort him.
"I'm angry at them for being lawless. This woman... deserves to be trampled upon for the rest of her life. Otherwise, if they gain some power, they'll become so arrogant that they don't know their place."
Zuo Shanzhang's eyes grew darker, and he turned and asked, "Have you taken all the things I asked you to bring back to the Dali Temple?"
"Don't worry, Prime Minister. I'll take him back." Chen Shaoyou bowed his head and waited for Zuo Shanzhang's instructions.
"Okay!" Zuo Shanzhang walked to the window, turned his back to Chen Shaoyou and said coldly, "Since the Queen is so indiscriminate about the importance of things, then perhaps she is not suitable for this position."
"What the Prime Minister means is..." Chen Shaoyou looked forward to it.
"Postpone it for one day, and take action two days later!" Zuo Shanzhang knew that by then, the queen would have died.
Jiang Yinyue wants to leave the Prime Minister's Mansion. Well, then let her die outside.
