Outside the room, a servant came quickly and looked at the scene in the room in a daze.
Shao Lecheng said coldly, "Please send for the doctor!"
Shao Lecheng had just yelled at the doctor to leave, and now he was calling another doctor...
The servants couldn't figure out Shao Lecheng's thoughts. They only felt that Shao Lecheng's face was gloomy and ugly. They didn't dare to say more or ask more questions. They just walked out.
Shao Lecheng still held Duan Gouqiong's wrist tightly. Duan Gouqiong found that she couldn't break free. She was a little annoyed: "If you have something to say, just say it nicely. I won't run away. Can you please stop holding me?"
Shao Lecheng frowned, let go of Duan Gouqiong, then closed his eyes and adjusted his breathing. He had to hold it in!
The doctor was invited back over. He wiped the sweat from his forehead, walked in and said, "Greetings, Your Highness."
"Come and test the soup on the ground!"
The doctor lowered his eyes and saw that the soup had spilled all over the floor, but it did not affect the examination. The doctor walked over, squatted down, and took out the silver needle for testing.
Duan Gouqiong understood what Shao Lecheng meant.
Shao Lecheng suspected that she had ulterior motives and put aphrodisiac in the soup, so he became angry and embarrassed!
Duan Gouqiong felt mocked. "Okay, I admit I didn't make this soup! I don't have such good cooking skills. If there's anything wrong with it, it has nothing to do with me!"
Duan Gouqiong looked indifferent, without a trace of guilt.
Shao Lecheng sneered and said, "You insisted at the beginning that it was you who did it, and now that something has happened you say it wasn't you! How can you be so shameless?"
This sentence again!
Duan Gouqiong felt the veins on her forehead throbbing. She gritted her teeth and said angrily, "Believe it or not, everyone in the mansion can testify for me!"
Shao Lecheng shouted again: "Call everyone in the kitchen!"
Soon, people from the kitchen arrived one after another and stood outside the door, making it packed.
Shao Lecheng frowned and asked, "I'm asking you, who made the soup she brought?"
The servants knew something was wrong when they heard Shao Lecheng's tone. They all knelt on the ground and responded, "Prince, it was the concubine's maid who did it!"
Duan Gouqiong immediately said proudly, "Did you hear that? I already told you it wasn't me! And you still had to make such a big fuss!"
Her expression was obviously unhappy. Shao Lecheng looked at her with a gloomy look in his eyes.
"So you lied at first and said you did it, you were just satisfying your vanity?"
Duan Gouqiong glared at him, "Why are you so annoying? It's just a soup, how can it satisfy your vanity? I just wanted you to drink it. It's not like I didn't cook it myself, but I was afraid of poisoning you!"
Duan Gouqiong had a dissatisfied look on her face and pouted, looking very angry and annoyed.
Shao Lecheng looked at her coldly. Before he could speak, the doctor squatting on the ground stood up and replied to Shao Lecheng: "Prince, there is no poison in this soup, and I didn't notice anything abnormal. I don't know why you drank this soup..."
I was drugged...
Shao Lecheng's face was gloomy. He continued to suppress it with his inner strength. His eyes began to fill with bloodshot. He gritted his teeth and said, "Call the concubine's maid!"
Then he looked at the doctor again: "Go check the leftover soup in that pot!"
"yes!"
The doctor walked out, and the servant went to call Tian Qinan's maid.
Duan Gouqiong was very unhappy, but she didn't complain. She just let Shao Lecheng get angry. When it was found out that she was innocent, she would ask Shao Lecheng to apologize!
She was still feeling proud that the maid was brought over.
The maid knelt on the ground, a look of panic on her face. "I heard that something bad happened after the prince drank the soup. I'm so scared. I was just stewing soup for the concubine. Yes, it was Miss Gou'er who took the soup away!"
"I had no choice but to go back and report to the Concubine, letting her make the decision. But she didn't even think of arguing. She just said, 'Forget it, I won't drink it.' I dare not tamper with the soup!"
The maid's face was full of panic, and she really looked innocent...
Duan Gouqiong looked at the maid, sitting on the chair with her legs crossed: "You don't dare? The only people who have come into contact with the soup are either you or me. I know whether I put anything in it or not. You pretending in front of me makes me feel disgusted!"
The maid lowered her head and responded with great grievance, "This servant is indeed wronged. I have done nothing wrong. Please, Prince, please investigate!"
The doctor came over from the kitchen and reported to Shao Lecheng: "Prince, when I checked the spilled soup in the room, I didn't notice anything unusual, but when I went to the kitchen to check, I was surprised to find something different!"
"You mean, only by comparing the soup can we detect the difference?"
"yes!"
Shao Lecheng glanced at Duan Gouqiong, who was sitting on a chair at this time, still without any guilt.
Shao Lecheng asked, "You say."
"I've noticed that the soup in the room seems to have a different smell, while the one in the kitchen is... cleaner!"
What this means is that nothing extra was added to the kitchen, but things were added to the room!
If the person who tampered with the pot was a maid, the maid should have tampered with the pot!
But only Duan Gouqiong could touch the soup that was served.
So, the person who placed the things there was Duan Gouqiong!
Anyone with discerning eyes will understand the message instantly...
Shao Lecheng's eyes fell sharply on Duan Gouqiong, but Duan Gouqiong seemed to have noticed nothing and sat in his seat calmly.
"You're still so calm even now. Do you think you can do whatever you want just because the Prince's Mansion is backing you up?"
