The Queen Mother chuckled and looked at Nanny Qin beside her.
Nanny Qin carefully explained, "The one who could follow Nanny Gui and mobilize the troops, apart from the emperor, is most likely the daughter of the Grand Commandant, Concubine Duan, or...
The second prince was recently assigned to be in charge of the Palace Front Department and the Imperial Guards.
Or maybe both mother and son were involved.
According to intelligence reports, Royal Concubine Duan and the Second Prince, as well as Royal Concubine De and several other princes, seemed to have been close to the Queen and Royal Concubine Li after the birth of the little princess.
The conditions and reasons are all there, so your Majesty, you can make such an inference...
Not just a servant, is that right?"
The Queen Mother nodded decisively and turned to Nanny Gui again.
"After tracking someone, did they find out? How did you handle it?"
Nanny Gui hesitated and said, "This is exactly what I want to report to you.
When the tracking bee was retrieved, there were blood beads on its tail, which meant that the opponent must have been injured.
So far, no one in the capital has been able to take our bee venom, so I watched them return to Concubine Duan's Changyi Palace and did not attack them."
Aunt Gui was a little worried, "My queen, even if the little princess knew the truth, it would take some time...
But what we just said, will they also find out? Are there any risks?"
This was the first time that Nanny Gui felt so nervous around the Empress Dowager.
The Empress Dowager raised her beautiful eyes and glanced at Madam Gui, who immediately stood up straight and respectfully, as if a thorn in her back was found.
The Queen Mother stood up and said, "Since it is inevitable, there is nothing to be afraid of!
Anyway, the time is not far from expected.
But remember, from now on, there are some things that don't need to be mentioned at all.
From now on, you must be extremely alert and execute my orders immediately!
Even if that little thing noticed and exposed it, it would still catch them off guard."
Nanny Gui and Nanny Qin looked at each other, smiled, and looked at the Queen Mother with admiration.
"Also, you are wrong about one thing..."
The Queen Mother continued, "Quickly release this tracking bee outside the palace and don't use it for the time being!
You said that no one has yet been able to detoxify bee venom...
Forgot about that person!"
Aunt Gui's eyes suddenly widened, "Could it be that..."
The Queen Mother's eyes were full of meaning, as if she discovered that something as small as an ant could actually surprise her.
"Have you forgotten what the tip-off said?
The second brother was poisoned, and the ninth brother and the forty brother were also poisoned?"
Aunt Gui asked in confusion, "Madam, didn't we...do we lose our effectiveness?"
Nanny Qin also suggested cautiously, "Madam, do we need to strengthen it?"
The Queen Mother looked calm, "I performed it myself, I'm not that useless!
As for why she would remember...”
The Queen Mother suddenly thought of Jun Baozhu's detection ability, and suddenly realized that she had said something wrong. She glanced at the two people beside her with a warning look.
Nanny Gui and Nanny Qin both became nervous.
The Queen Mother said briefly, "I heard that she has been exposed to drugs since she was a child. Perhaps the drugs in her body reacted with these things, leading to the current situation.
But it should still be under our control.
It's good for the little thing to be favored. Anyway, time is running out, and it will be good for us...!"
Thinking about the information I had revealed just now, I hope it can be passed on to the little princess and not be guessed.
Even if you guess it...
Just like when she returned to the palace today, the little princess had yet to reveal some secrets, but what about the emperor?
The emperor would never touch her unless there was solid evidence before him.
Thinking about the near future, the Queen Mother felt a sense of crisis for the first time.
Lucky star?
Thinking of the red in my mind...
The Queen Mother's eyes turned cold, and the words she was about to say were taken back when they reached her lips.
After all, she had some concerns, but she was also more determined to change her plans.
After the banquet, Concubine Li, as usual, took Jun Baozhu back to Qiwu Palace to feed and rest.
While drinking milk, Huo Feng quickly revealed the news and told Jun Baozhu what Nanny Gui had done, as well as the discussion between the Queen Mother and her servant.
Jun Baozhu didn't even bother to drink the milk, and said in a shocked voice:
[Destroy the body? What does that mean? ]
[Madame Gui burned the eunuchs she handled into ashes and sold them to the courtyard to be used as fertilizer? ]
Upon hearing this, Concubine Li took a deep breath and listened to her daughter's inner voice:
[How is it possible? How can it be so fast to burn a person? ]
[How is it possible that a living person was reduced to ashes without any light or smell, and was discovered by others? ]
[Isn't she afraid of being discovered by others? ]
[What? Aunt Gui sent everyone away, and within a quarter of an hour, she opened the door to the utility room and brought out a wooden barrel, which was full of ashes? ]
[How is it possible that even if an adult eunuch is burned to ashes, it will take less than a quarter of an hour? ]
Huo Feng answered truthfully: [Because there were no witnesses at the scene and no one is talking about it for the time being, we cannot know exactly what her methods were...]
[But the person is definitely gone. When Madam Gui reported to the Queen Mother, she swore that even if the palace was turned upside down, not a single hair of the eunuch who had handled the case could be found...]
Jun Baozhu's pupils dilated, as if she was frightened, and she couldn't utter a word.
