Gao Guirong and Lin Wanyi looked melancholy.
"Sister Gao, the emperor has put Sister Sheng in solitary confinement. Why doesn't he allow anyone in? Otherwise, we could comfort her."
"It'll be fine, don't worry."
Concubine Min also said: "Yes, Sister Sheng is a lucky person, she was released soon."
After noon, in Guanju Palace.
Sheng Xiyan lay in a rocking chair basking in the sun.
Coral was massaging her legs.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. The Emperor trusts you and will be released from confinement soon."
Sheng Xiyan adjusted the angle of the veil on her face.
"It's nothing. Others can say whatever they want. I'm just focusing on cultivating my mind and character."
Jiang Jiang was running and rolling the iron ring. The Pekingese was nimbly jumping in and out of the iron ring. The Chow Chow jumped in and got its chubby body stuck in the iron ring.
"Mother, come and help!"
Sheng Xiyan smiled when she saw it.
"Did Rinrin misunderstand himself and think he was the same size as a Pekingese?"
Xiao Zhuozi struggled to pull the iron ring off.
The white Chow Chow barked in grievance and embarrassment.
I brought this little one from the Sheng family. In just a few months, he has grown into a big and strong boy with thick and fluffy hair and a simple and cute appearance.
Sheng Xiyan stroked his fur to comfort him: "Linlin, next time I'll find a bigger iron ring for you to drill through. Don't be sad."
The Chow Chow nestled obediently at her feet.
"Mother, I want to go find Father."
"Your father is still busy. In two days..."
Jiang Jiang curled his lips and said, "No, I'm going today."
The older this child gets, the more opinionated he becomes. He is not at all like a baby who would listen to any coaxing or tricking.
"Go ahead, go ahead. I'll have Xiao Zhuozi take you there at noon."
The general was so happy that he jumped and danced.
"I can go sleep with Father again!"
Sheng Xiyan smiled and said, "Well, you are now enjoying the dream of the women in the harem, all looking forward to sleeping with that dragon."
In order to sleep with him, he was willing to frame such a kind person like me.
At noon the next day.
In the Yangxin Palace, Xuan Ling asked, "Is everything done?"
Eunuch Fu replied in a low voice: "Your Majesty, don't worry, it's settled."
"Let the imperial physician go to Yuhua Pavilion as well."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
After a cup of tea, the imperial carriage stopped outside Yuhua Pavilion.
"The Emperor has arrived."
Inside the palace, Concubine Xian quickly got up from her bed to welcome the emperor.
Xuan Ling walked in.
"This concubine pays respects to the Emperor, cough cough cough..."
Concubine Xian looks three parts sick and seven parts acting, and she looks very weak.
"Is Consort Xian feeling better?"
"I am fine now."
You have to get better quickly, otherwise how can you sleep with me?
Xuan Ling sat down in the seat of honor, and Commander Xue and Imperial Physician Li came in.
Concubine Xian just said, "Your Majesty, an incense stick ago, Imperial Physician Xu came to check my pulse and found me safe."
Xuan Ling ordered, "Go and search carefully to see if there is any Five Poison Powder."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Concubine Xian was suddenly startled and knelt down crying:
"Your Majesty, I was poisoned and have just recovered from a serious illness.
The guards came to investigate yesterday, and they are investigating again today. Does Your Majesty suspect that I poisoned myself?"
Xuan Ling looked solemn and dignified, and did not speak.
Concubine Xian could only kneel there dejectedly.
After a while, the guard found a small paper bag.
Commander Xue took it and said, "Your Majesty, I found this item in the cabinet."
Xuan Ling ordered, "Ask Imperial Physician Li to check if it's the Five Poison Powder."
Eunuch Fu took a look and said, "I had someone make this thing, how could I not be familiar with it."
He glanced secretly at the emperor again. Both the master and the servant looked serious and upright.
Doctor Li was checking the rouge and powder on the dressing table in the inner hall.
The day before yesterday, he went to Guanju Palace and found Five Poison Powder in the white glazed tea cup, and now he made a new discovery.
He walked quickly to the imperial presence.
Holding a small blue and white porcelain jar, which contained vermilion lip mud.
"Your Majesty, I have thought carefully over the past two days and believe that the poisoning may not only be caused by the teacup, but also by the items used by Lady Xian.
Look, I found the Five Poison Powder in the lip paste, which is the same ingredient as the one in the teacup the other day."
Xuan Ling hadn't expected to find such an unexpected discovery, and asked in surprise and delight, "Really?"
"I can be sure of that."
"Lady Xian, was this the lip balm you applied to Guanju Palace the other day?"
Concubine Xian nodded and said, "Yes, this was given to me by Sister Zhang a few days ago."
