"how?"
After the welcoming banquet, the empress dowager returned to the Cining Palace. Her anger had faded away and her eyes were sharp and calm.
"Your Highness, I have already taken care of it.
Even if the palace were turned upside down, no one would be able to find a single hair on him."
The person who was speaking had a sinister and somewhat creepy smile. It was Nanny Gui, the eunuch who was revealed by Jun Baozhu at the welcoming banquet and who had returned to the Cining Palace to tamper with the Queen's meals.
The Queen Mother hummed, her expression solemn.
Nanny Gui studied the Queen Mother's expression and asked tentatively, "My Lady, I'm afraid the little princess will become a great threat to us!
Although I learned the news in advance, I still thought that the little princess could only predict some things.
Some experts among the people have also had such abilities...
But I didn't expect that the little princess would be so difficult to deal with!"
Seeing that the Queen Mother did not refute, Nanny Gui continued, "Tampering with the Queen's food to test her...
It was decided temporarily when we returned to the palace, and it’s only half an hour before the welcoming banquet.
But even this was known to the little princess.
I just heard from Nanny Qin that the little princess seemed to have accurately revealed the hiding place of the eunuchs she handled.
And you concluded that it was the slave who moved it?"
The corners of the Queen Mother's lips gradually curved up into a chilling smile.
Aunt Gui suddenly covered her mouth, as if she had come to her senses, and whispered:
"My lady, will that...
Will everything we say now be known to the little princess?
Will she reveal the news through her inner voice?"
The Queen Mother's expression and movements did not change at all. She looked at the other side and saw Nanny Qin, who was a bit like her in height and body shape. She said:
"What about you? What did you find?"
The person who was called out calmly analyzed the situation:
"The little princess didn't say anything about the food that was handled by others right away...
At first, it seemed that she only knew that we had done something, so the Queen Mother deliberately showed her weakness and swept away some food on the Queen's table...
After that, from the little princess's tone, one could almost conclude that it was then that she knew exactly what kind of food it was.
It can be seen from this that…”
Nanny Qin bowed to the Queen Mother and paced back and forth, choosing her words carefully.
“Passive food is there from the beginning, not something that comes later.
In other words, there is a time lag for the little princess to investigate some things.
Therefore, the little princess can find out some truths or make predictions, but there should be a time limit...
For example, perhaps the little princess can also understand what we are saying now.
But I may not know it right now."
The Queen Mother nodded slightly and ordered, "Continue."
"Secondly, I have observed that since you returned to the palace, the little princess has revealed in public that you are planning to deal with her...
Everyone else at the scene had an expression of shock, except the Emperor, the Empress, Concubine Li and the Crown Prince.
Of course, it is not ruled out that others have concealed it well.
Since the little princess knew it in advance, perhaps she had already revealed it in front of the emperor, empress, Concubine Li and the prince.
It just so happens that these people are currently the ones closest to her.
Madam, I want to remind you to be careful, because I found that when you return to the palace this time...
Perhaps the emperor knew in advance that you were planning to deal with the little princess, and his attitude towards you seemed a little distant and wary.
Will he believe it?
Even the little princess revealed that you planned to clean up the queen first, and also revealed that you tampered with the food. Looking at the emperor's expression at that time...
It seems that some people believe it.
In this way, your words from now on may not be able to shake the emperor's decision as before."
The Queen Mother's face darkened little by little.
She discovered this herself, otherwise she would not have softened her stance at the scene.
His impatience did serve the purpose of paralyzing the emperor, but his vigilance at that time was not an act.
"Anything else?"
After calming down, the Queen Mother looked at the two of them again and continued asking.
Nanny Gui added, "When I returned to the palace to deal with the person in charge, I clearly noticed that there was someone behind me..."
The Queen Mother raised her eyebrows slightly, with a hint of sarcasm at the corner of her lips, "Oh? I've been away for a while, and the harem is really in turmoil!
You dare to put eyes around me!"
Nanny Gui didn't dare to speak, and waited for the Queen Mother to remind her before continuing:
"At that time, I was in a hurry to return to the palace to deal with the person involved, so I couldn't follow...
In a hurry, I released the tracking bee. After dealing with the person involved, I followed and found... "
Before Nanny Gui could give her answer, the Queen Mother asked calmly, "Noble Concubine Duan, or the Second Prince?"
Aunt Gui looked shocked, "Madam! How did you know?"
