There should have been pastries on there, how come there are none?
"Xiuhong, where are those pastries?" Granny Luo asked, frowning.
"This servant didn't know that there were still pastries on the plate before the old princess went to sleep," Xiuhong said after thinking for a moment.
Dr. Zhang looked at the empty plate on the table.
The top was empty, not even a trace of residue remained, making it difficult for him to distinguish.
Seeing this, Zheng Qiaoshu breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she was quick-witted and had secretly taken away the extra pastries.
Thinking of this, Zheng Qiaoshu also remembered that she had sent someone to Li'an County to deliver a letter.
His master also ordered him to go and check the storeroom of Prince An's mansion. Now that the old lady is in a coma, what exactly is the warrant that Granny Luo has?
For some reason, Granny Luo always felt that there might be something fishy about these pastries, but neither she nor Zheng Qiaoshu were both alright.
Granny Luo then looked at Li Tianyou, whose face was pale, and said to him with some guilt, "Master Li, I'm really sorry for what happened today. I've kept you waiting. If you have something to do, please go back first. When the Prince returns, I will personally come to apologize to you."
Granny Luo knew that Li Tianyou could not possibly be the one who poisoned the old princess.
"Granny!" Zheng Qiaoshu was somewhat displeased when she heard that Granny Luo wanted to let Li Tianyou go back.
You see, this Li Tianyou is someone she's trying to drag down with her.
"No need for apologies. Granny Luo, please take good care of the old princess. I will come to visit her again when Zhiwei returns." Li Tianyou stood up and was about to leave.
Enraged, Zheng Qiaoshu stood up, intending to take the opportunity to stuff the pastry into Li Tianyou's arms.
Unexpectedly, just as she was about to bump into him, Li Tianyou dodged aside, giving Zheng Qiaoshu no chance.
Li Tianyou was a businessman by trade, and he had seen all kinds of people.
Li Tianyou saw right through Zheng Qiaoshu's little scheme.
She acted like she was guilty just now, but now she's trying to throw herself at me; she must have some ulterior motive.
He refused to let her have her way.
Zheng Qiaoshu didn't expect Li Tianyou to dodge, and she fell to the ground, the pastries in her hand falling out.
"Isn't this the pastry that Miss Biao gave to the old princess before?" Xiuhong exclaimed.
"How did this pastry end up on Miss Biao?" At this point, what else didn't Liu Ming understand?
The person who poisoned her was this young lady in front of us.
"No. This is what I kept for myself," Zheng Qiaoshu said hastily, trying to explain.
"Dr. Zhang, could you please take a look at those pastries? Is there anything wrong with them?" Granny Luo said with a dark face.
She originally thought that Zheng Qiaoshu was fine.
But now, if there's nothing wrong with the pastries she gave me, why would she hide them?
"Granny Luo, how is the old princess? I've brought the ginseng she needs." The accountant walked in carrying a box and noticed the tense atmosphere in the room, looking somewhat puzzled.
What's going on? He was just worried that the old princess might not really want ginseng, so he personally delivered it to her.
