Chapter 86 Aggression
"Her Majesty Shufei is so aggressive, do you have any substantial evidence? If so, please produce it. Otherwise, I would think that Her Majesty Shufei is eager for something to happen to the sisters in the palace." Shen Chuliu said angrily.
"You! Lady Jing is too unruly." Concubine Feng looked at the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, you can't just ignore it!"
"Okay." Qi Yixiu waved his hand: "Stand up and talk."
Shen Chuliu and Li Meiren both stood up.
"Your Majesty, Empress, I have no evidence to prove what I said. But I have never harmed Lady Jing." Lady Li said, "Please Your Majesty, please look into this matter."
Qi Yixiu looked at her and said, "I will give you an explanation."
After that, he stood up and said, "Queen, check it carefully. I will ask Chusi to cooperate with you."
"Yes, Your Majesty, don't worry. But the most urgent thing is to ask the imperial physician to check on the two sisters, so that they don't get hurt." said the Queen.
Qi Yixiu nodded and looked at Shen Chuliu: "My beloved concubine, how do you feel?"
"Your Majesty, what Imperial Doctor Zhao meant is that it's not a problem now. Fortunately, it was discovered early." Shen Chuliu said.
Qi Yixiu nodded: "Since it is Doctor Zhao who is examining it, let him take a good look at it."
After saying that, he took a few steps forward and said, "Until this matter is thoroughly investigated, Miss Li will be under house arrest."
The beautiful lady bit her lip but thanked him anyway.
After the emperor left, Shen Chuliu said, "Empress, I will also stay indoors for a few days. First, to recuperate, and second, to wait for the results."
"Well, then you can recuperate with Yao Baolin for a few days. Don't worry, since the emperor has said he will investigate, he will definitely give you an explanation." The queen supported Emei's hand and stood up: "In this case, let's all go. I will take care of this matter."
Shen Chuliu once again solemnly thanked the Queen.
After sending everyone away, Yao Baolin asked anxiously, "If it wasn't Lady Li who did it... then who did it?"
Now that Jingmei is in favor, anyone can do it.
"I still haven't figured it out yet. Let's take our time. The emperor is investigating it," said Shen Chuliu.
When Yao Baolin heard her say this, he could only sigh.
She was also a victim this time because of Jing Meiren, but since she had benefited from it, she was bound to be involved in trouble.
She had nothing to complain about.
Shen Chuliu sat on the couch with a headache: "This time, let's see who will bear the consequences in the end."
"Master, even though Concubine Li's move was not smart, but... it doesn't necessarily mean it wasn't her, right? After all, if something happened to you, she is now second only to Concubine Yi in favor." Zizhu said.
Shen Chuliu nodded: "It's possible, but if it was her, she wouldn't be so clear. How could she find out without any hindrance at the beginning of the investigation? If she took action, would she have no cover?"
"My master is right. This is too much like a frame-up. The person behind this might want to kill two birds with one stone," said Yuan Xiao.
"Anyway, we have to be more careful next time." Shen Chuliu said.
Twice.
Zizhu and Zirui both knelt down, and the others hurriedly knelt down upon seeing this.
"It's all because of the incompetence of the servants that you are harmed."
"Get up. It's hard to guard against something like this. Yuanxiao, how many years have you been in the palace? Find me someone who knows something about pharmacology. There's no need to do anything, just be able to identify some poisons."
"Yes, there really is such a person. He is working in the lantern warehouse now. She was originally a maid of Min Zhaoyi during the reign of the previous emperor. When Min Zhaoyi went to Cheng'an Temple, she was assigned to the lantern warehouse." Yuanxiao said.
"I have met him before. He is a nice person and doesn't talk much." Zizhu said.
"Okay, I'll find a chance to get her here." Shen Chuliu smiled and said, "Just wait, our Cuiyunxuan is really going to be in a downturn for a while this time."
"Master?" Zi Rui called out nervously.
"It's okay. Sometimes you need to take a break and watch other people's shows, right?"
She smiled and said, "But before that, we will transfer this person here."
"The palace maid's name is Zhou Fu." Yuanxiao said.
It doesn't sound like a serious name.
Shen Chuliu nodded.
The late emperor’s Consort Min Zhaoyi entered the palace in his later years. Actually, it is called later years as the late emperor passed away when he was only in his early fifties.
Therefore, Min Zhaoyi did not give birth to a child, and after the late emperor passed away, she was sent to Cheng'an Temple.
So, Zhou Fu is not very old.
Shen Chuliu knew what was going on and was waiting for the right opportunity. He was not in a hurry to hire anyone now.
When something happened in the palace, it naturally spread quickly.
The news that Lady Li had harmed Lady Jing naturally spread like wildfire.
Some people don't dare to do anything, but they definitely dare to spread the message.
After all, if something happened to these two beauties, then they would have a chance, right? In Leshou Palace, Wen Xiaoyi and Concubine Kang De returned and entered the main hall.
"Your Majesty, do you think that Concubine Li really did this? Concubine Jing even tried to excuse Concubine Li, presumably for His Majesty to hear." Want to be a good person? "It would be a good thing to bring down Concubine Li, but if she fails, someone will be in trouble." Concubine Kangde smiled and said, "There is no shortage of innocent people in the harem."
"Your Majesty, what you mean is... someone has set up a plan to get rid of Lady Li and Lady Jing?" Wen Xiaoyi said.
"How can the banned drugs of the previous dynasty be so easy to obtain? I can't take such drugs myself. Did I enter the palace with the intention of harming others?" Concubine Kang De shook her head: "It's just that someone saw that the two of them were favored and blocked their way."
"Miss Jing is really pitiful. The last time she was poisoned, it was completely unclear why. This time, I'm afraid it's..." Wen Xiaoyi also shook her head.
"In the harem, how many things are clear and obvious? Many people have lost their lives in confusion. Let's just wait and see. It will be good if we are not framed." Concubine Kangde didn't care.
Wen Xiaoyi agreed: "Your Highness is absolutely right."
Shen Chuliu waited for the result.
In Taiji Palace, Qi Yixiu was also waiting for the result.
The next day, after working all morning, he finally got the result.
"Concubine Li?" Qi Yixiu asked after listening to Chusi's report.
"Yes, now it is Li Jieyu who has been found out. But I don't think Li Jieyu can get the Jiaoyan Pills." Chusi paused and said, "During the time of the late emperor, there were a few pills in the palace, and they were all counted."
"Well, wasn't it destroyed later?" Qi Yixiu sneered: "It seems that this is another masterpiece of my good mother?"
"I'm sure Concubine Feng also intervened, but this time, it was probably done by Empress Dowager Feng." Chusi said.
"It took a lot of effort." Qi Yixiu smiled: "They are not wronged."
Chu Si did not dare to answer, but just asked: "Your Majesty, how do you think this matter should be handled?"
"Since it's Concubine Li, then..." Qi Yixiu sneered, "Just fine her one year's interest."
Chu Si was stunned. Is that it? "Lady Jing has suffered a lot. Ask the imperial physician to take good care of her. I will go see her tonight." Qi Yixiu said.
It stands to reason that the energy ahead should be high, but it may not be high (end of this chapter)
