Chapter 282: Targeted in the Palace (Part 3)



Naturally, many people were staring at Duan Qingxi when she was first brought into the palace. So for the first two days, Duan Qingxi did nothing but chat and eat with the queen every day, and occasionally pretended to learn some palace etiquette and customs.

However, he was secretly observing all the palace servants who entered and left the Queen's Palace.

The Queen knew what she was worried about, so she cooperated with her in everything. At the same time, she admired Duan Qingxi more and more, thinking that this girl was really smart and clever!

On the third day, Duan Qingxi finally discovered a palace servant who seemed a little strange.

She is just a girl who is responsible for sprinkling water and sweeping outside the yard. She doesn't look very eye-catching, but I always feel alert every time I see her.

Even... she was nervous when she approached the bouquets of flowers placed in the room.

After the watering maid left, Duan Qingxi beckoned the maid in charge of cleaning the hall over and asked, "Did the Queen order these flowers to be placed here?"

The palace maid replied respectfully, "My Lady, the Queen has always loved fresh flowers, so she always keeps a bouquet of fresh flowers in her bedroom. Even the nanny said it's a habit she's had since she was in her boudoir."

Duan Qingxi nodded and asked, "Then... who picks these flowers every day?"

The palace attendant continued, "There is someone specifically in charge of this. Does the princess want to ask someone about this?"

Duan Qingxi nodded, and the palace maid brought a younger palace maid over.

The palace maid had probably never seen the world, so she was particularly nervous when she came in front of Duan Qingxi, and her body was trembling slightly.

"This servant...this servant greets the princess."

"Hmm..." Duan Qingxi asked, "Are you responsible for picking these flowers every day?"

The palace maid quickly said, "Originally...originally, I was responsible for picking the flowers, but...but Caiyue said she was free and could help me, so Caiyue picked all the flowers."

"Cai Yue? Who is that?"

The palace maid lowered her eyes and said, "That's... that's the palace maid who's in charge of sweeping outside the courtyard."

Is that the person she suspected before?

Duan Qingxi waved her hand to let the palace maid go, then asked the palace maid in charge, "What's your name?"

"Slave calls Xing'er."

"Okay, Xing'er, get someone to keep an eye on that palace maid named Caiyue and see if she's doing anything wrong lately. If you find anything, report to me immediately."

"I obey your orders!"

As soon as Xing'er went down, Nanny Lian came to call Duan Qingxi.

The queen had just woken up, but she had slept very well and her face was very rosy.

Duan Qingxi stepped forward to feel her pulse and asked, "Have you felt much better these past two days, Your Majesty?"

The Queen nodded, her tone becoming somewhat cheerful. "I used to feel uneasy when I slept, but lately it's been much better. I sleep without dreams and wake up feeling refreshed."

Duan Qingxi smiled and said, "It seems that the poison in Her Majesty's body has been almost cleared."

She had originally planned to spend the last two days draining the poison from the Queen's blood, but unexpectedly, the Queen simply took her pills and took medicinal baths every day, and the remaining toxins in her body were almost cleared.

The queen was also very happy, and she was reluctant to let go of Duan Qingxi's hand.

The emperor happened to come over tonight. After learning about this, he was very happy and even had dinner here.

Duan Qingxi didn't want to disturb the couple's interest, so he left quietly and went directly to the Imperial Garden.

Qiao Yun and Chan Xue were busy in her room, and Duan Qingxi did not call them.

I was just strolling around, but I didn't expect to meet a difficult person in this imperial garden, Concubine Qin.
