Chapter 029 Who moved whom?
The person from the Ministry of Punishment sorted out the circumstances and indeed suggested searching Rong Fei's kitchen first to see what she had accidentally eaten.
Then abortion pills were found in Rong Fei's diet.
After that, it was natural to check Rong Fei's servants first.
The Ministry of Punishment was busy for a long time but to no avail.
At this time, someone mentioned that Concubine Ying was almost poisoned in the morning.
Is it related to the two missing cooks?
As a result, the catering department was turned upside down by the Ministry of Punishment.
To no avail.
In the end, the Ministry of Punishment could only focus all its attention on the servants of other concubines and important officials.
The Emperor and Concubine Ying found a good seat, sat down, and drank tea, while the other concubines each had their own thoughts.
Another stick of incense passed, and the head of the Ministry of Punishment reported back that a woman from Prince Lu's mansion who looked very similar to the woman who pretended to be Concubine Ying's cook in the catering department had been brought in.
Xia Xue looked over and saw the woman wearing a veil not far away. Who else could it be but Li Tingting?
And, Prince Lu followed.
"Your Highness."
"Your Highness, please excuse me. Please take your seat."
Prince Lu waved his hands and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty. You don't have to sit down. Just now, the people from the Ministry of Punishment kept pestering me, saying that my people were related to Concubine Rong's miscarriage. I brought them here. Please judge for yourself, Your Majesty."
The head of the Ministry of Punishment rolled his eyes. Prince Lu was indeed good at taking credit. It was obviously he who brought the people here under unlimited pressure. Otherwise, he, a god, would not have been able to be invited.
Prince Lu took a step forward and said in a voice that he and the emperor could hear, "This person is the least likely to harm Concubine Rong. Please give me some face, Your Majesty."
After saying that, Prince Lu winked and Li Tingting hurried forward.
Li Tingting raised her sleeves, lifted her veil very quickly, and then put it down again.
The emperor frowned.
A breeze blew, bringing with it the scent of osmanthus flowers.
When the wind blew on Li Tingting, there was a strange smell.
Concubine Ying in front of him instinctively stepped back.
The emperor raised his lips with an ambiguous smile, turned around and asked the head of the Ministry of Punishment, "Why do you suspect this woman?"
"Reporting to the Emperor, the smell of this woman is similar to the smell of a strange medicine in Concubine Rong's medicine room, and the head of the catering team said that one of the two people who claimed to be Concubine Ying's cook in the catering team has gone missing in the past few days."
"Your Majesty, I think it is impossible. This person has been serving me these past few days." Prince Lu spoke quickly.
"Personal service?" This time it was Xia Xue who spoke.
Prince Lu frowned and said, "Yes, I will serve you personally."
"Then congratulations to the prince for having his ninth concubine." Xia Xue smiled, "Oh, no, if it was a maid who was promoted, she might just be a concubine."
Li Tingting's eyes turned bloodshot with anger. If the emperor hadn't been here, she really wanted to slap Xia Xue in the face.
"Mrs. Chu, please respect yourself!" Prince Lu was unhappy. Coupled with Li Tingting's slander against Xia Xue, Prince Lu even planned to give up trying to win over Chu Zhenxuan.
"Oh? Then may I ask, Your Excellency, what did I do to disrespect myself? Did I expose the face of someone from your Lu Palace in public, or did I point out the bugs of someone from your Lu Palace in public?"
"Or is she putting a Hulunbuir seed on her man's head?" Xia Xue added secretly in her heart.
"Don't flatter yourself. The official husband who caused a stir a while ago by divorcing his wife was not from my Prince Lu's Mansion."
"Prince Lu seems to be very interested in the little fun between me and my wife?"
Chu Zhenxuan's magnetic voice rang out from behind.
"Prince!"
"Madam, I am sorry to have wronged you."
"Well, it is quite annoying, but one cannot argue with the grassland."
The emperor spat out the tea.
grassland......
This Mrs. Chu is really good at comparison.
Yang Junyi: +2.
Shit! Is the emperor mentally perverted?
Two points for each grassland, one point for each word!
What.
The longer the time went on, the more dissatisfied Xia Xue became with the system because there were too many bugs.
The shrill sound of salsa salsa rang in the ears of Yang Junyi and Chu Zhenxuan again.
Yang Junyi was vaguely wondering, why did this voice sound so familiar to him?
Prince Lu naturally had no idea what Cao Yuan meant, but looking at the expressions of the Emperor and Chu Zhenxuan, he knew that it was not a good thing, so he did not even say hello to Chu Zhenxuan and just stood aside.
After a while, Prince Lu spoke again, reminding the Emperor to clear the names of the people in his palace.
The emperor saw that he had almost finished beating her, so he slowly spoke, "I also think this woman is impossible."
When the head of the Ministry of Punishment heard this, he became very anxious. He had originally thought that now that he had found the murderer, he could go back and interrogate him thoroughly and he would surely be able to find out the truth. But now that the emperor had said it was not the murderer, he certainly could not take the murderer away.
"I'll give you three days to find out the truth for me." The emperor pretended to stand up.
"Your Majesty, please stay."
Yang Junyi raised his eyebrows, impatience flashing in his eyes.
"All the servants present have not been checked yet!"
"Then you check it out." Yang Junyi shrugged indifferently.
"The head of the catering team has already taken a general look. No one is in the catering team. There is only Madam Chu and the maidservant who serves her..."
When Yang Junyi heard the name Mrs. Chu, stars suddenly appeared on his head.
That face that day...
Yang Junyi:+2+2+2.
"Forget about Madam Chu. It definitely can't be her. How about this, Madam Chu, ask the maid behind you to take off her veil, okay?"
"Of course."
"Yuqing."
Fu Yuqing understood and pulled down her veil.
Under the veil was a very pretty face with skin so crystal clear that it seemed as if water could be squeezed out of it.
This beauty is really a good thing.
I’ll see if I can redeem it for a super hydrating injection next time.
Bibi: ...
Water light needle:......
Prince Lu stared with his eyes wide open, almost drooling.
The head of the catering team shook his head.
Fu Yuqing quickly covered her face with the veil again.
Li Tingting nudged Prince Lu with her elbow. Prince Lu looked away and smiled beautifully, "I didn't expect the servants in the Prime Minister's Mansion to be so outstanding. I really offended Madam Chu just now."
Xia Xue sneered and did not respond, but she thought in her heart, if Prince Lu was not pretending, he would never be able to aspire to the throne in his lifetime. If he was pretending, the emperor would not be able to leave him any chance of survival.
"Until the Ministry of Punishment has found out the result, all the servants in Concubine Rong's garden should be locked up, and I will transfer a few of them over. Everyone should go away, and let Concubine Rong rest well." After saying this, he stood up and walked out.
The emperor has finished watching the play, but I don’t know if he enjoyed it.
If he really wanted Concubine Rong to recuperate, he shouldn't have been involved in this case. This obviously made Concubine Rong upset.
In the end, he even replaced Concubine Rong's people with his own, which was obviously intended to make Concubine Rong very angry and leave her with a chronic illness.
The sound of slassara in Yang Junyi's ears became louder and louder.
For no apparent reason he suddenly became irritable.
Yang Junyi: +2+2+2.
Walking is an added bonus.
Could it be that the emperor knows that he is also on the grassland?
Ha ha ha ha.
The emperor walked to Xia Xue's side and suddenly heard the words, "Could it be that the emperor knows that he is on the grassland?" and turned his head suddenly.
Xia Xue was startled and held her breath.
Chu Zhenxuan hurried forward.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong?"
That’s right, can you really hear what I’m thinking?
Suddenly I turned around and was shocked.
