Jiayang didn't expect that she saw through her plan at once, and she was very anxious. She had already taken precautions, but it would be impossible for her to succeed under the watchful eyes of everyone!
After thinking about it, he pulled a young lady to the edge of the pavilion, hoping to use her as a shield before doing it himself. She had prepared enough medicine, so it would be no problem to give some to the fish. Although he didn't know what would happen to the fish after eating it, it would definitely be effective.
Bai Zhiyue raised her foot to stop the man
"Wait, don't come close! Otherwise, if something is found out later, will it be your fault or mine?"
"Of course it's you, I haven't fed you anything!"
"That's not necessarily true. What if you bring something you shouldn't?"
Return this to her.
She was startled.
How did Bai know I had the medicine? Could he be a clairvoyant? Impossible! He must be trying to trick me. He was caught drugging me last time, so he must be afraid I'd drug him again.
Damn, they're so vigilant, but~ Humph! Just wait and see!]
There is no choice but to move away from the pavilion.
Bai Zhiyue was the only one sitting in the pavilion, holding Doudou. She looked with great interest at the lonely maid standing by the water, not daring to move.
A group of noble ladies could only stand there and were not even allowed to leave, which was embarrassing and annoying.
Finally, Qinglian came with the imperial physician, followed by the queen's wet nurse, Wu.
"I heard that something happened to Lord Rongfu. Your Majesty is worried, so she asked me to come and help take a look. If there is anything needed, I will report to the Emperor."
The person Jiayang sent to report to the emperor also came back, with no one behind him.
"Princess, the Emperor said~"
"What are you talking about? You're so hesitant!"
"This matter will be handled by the Queen."
Jiayang's face turned green with anger. Didn't the emperor care about those brocade fish the most? Why didn't he care about the Bai family?
Of course, the emperor knew that Bai Shi could not possibly poison his precious fish. Besides, it sounded like Jiayang was looking for trouble, so he let her slap herself in the face. He would not get involved.
Bai Zhiyue bowed to Wu as a gesture of giving face to the Queen.
"I was unfamiliar with the palace's restrictions, and seeing the brocade fish growing well, I fed it some of the snacks from the banquet. It was truly my fault, and I will definitely not do it again."
Admit your mistakes first
"Jiayang was worried that there might be something on me that might be harmful to the brocade fish, so he wanted to ask the imperial physician to check if there was anything wrong with the water or the leftover snack residue."
Wu knew what was going on, and she knew that Qing Jiayang wanted to take the opportunity to find fault with Rong Fugong.
"The Emperor and the Empress are already aware of this matter. Duke Rongfu hasn't been to the palace for a long time, so I wonder if this rule is justifiable."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your understanding! Since the princess is so worried, we must get to the bottom of this. Please ask the imperial physician to come forward and take a look!"
The princess's face turned red and black, and then dark purple. She never expected that the emperor would let it go so easily, and the queen did the same. Isn't this embarrassing for her? Her cousin is not taken seriously at all.
The other noble ladies looked at the princess with scrutiny, which made her want to escape.
She took a few deep breaths, and she remembered that there was a beauty who wanted to meet the emperor and wanted to create a picture surrounded by brocade fish so that the emperor would like it.
A palace maid suggested that fish like to eat insects, so she caught a few small insects from the tree and threw them into the water. No one would find them, and it was normal for insects from the tree to fall into the water, so they would not be discovered.
As a result, a school of fish was attracted, and the scene was spectacular.
But after the emperor knew the reason, not only did he remove the beauty from the palace, but he also removed her name card, and the maid disappeared from the palace, all because she had disobeyed orders.
As for Bai, ignorance is not a crime.
"Your Excellency, Lord Rongfu, I have checked everything and there is nothing wrong!"
Bai Zhiyue pretended to be relieved.
"That's good. I was just worried that something might go wrong with the feeding. If these treasures were damaged, I would be guilty of a grave sin! I'm sorry to bother Madam Wu with this trip, and thank you, Her Majesty the Queen!"
"You're welcome, Lord Rongfu."
Bai Zhiyue stood up to see Wu off, and leaned close to her ear and whispered,
"Pay attention to the virtuous concubine!"
Nanny Wu is an old lady, so even if she was surprised after hearing this, she didn't show it on her face.
"I will return to report immediately. Lord Rongfu, the princess, and the other young ladies, have fun!"
Jiayang was like a wolf whose tail had been bitten off. He ran away with his tail between his legs, looking frustrated and saying, "I'll be back."
"Mom, she's still thinking about harming you. Why didn't you just shake out the medicine from her body?"
"It's just a small matter. With Prince Rui here, the Emperor won't do anything to her. It's better to wait and see what she does next. If she doesn't move, spare her. If she strikes again, this time I'll make sure she hits the target, so she won't have the chance to harm anyone again."
"Alright!"
"Why do I feel sick to my stomach and want to vomit?"
"What's going on? Did you eat too much just now?"
"I can't be that clueless. I can still tell when I'm hungry and full!"
Just as he finished speaking, he suddenly spat out a mouthful of liquid. Although it avoided the direct direction, it still splashed a lot onto Bai Zhiyue, including himself.
"Doudou, what's wrong with you!"
Bai Zhiyue was shocked. Doudou had never been sick since he was a child. She was frightened and at a loss for what to do when he suddenly became like this.
"Mom, I'm sorry I got all over you. I couldn't help it, but I feel better now that I've vomited. Did I really eat too much today?"
Qinglian helped clean up and said
"The Duke's servant will call the imperial physician. Please go to the side hall and change. The young marquis will be fine."
"Yes, Doudou will be fine."
She first touched Doudou's head and found it was slightly warm, but not noticeably so. He also looked quite energetic and not lethargic.
"Where else is Doudou feeling uncomfortable?"
