"Did you eat something behind my back?" Yang Xianrong didn't know what to ask, and Lan Xiang started to break into a cold sweat while holding her stomach.
Cui Xi covered her with another layer of quilt, and a piece of bright yellow silk floated out from under the bed, which was the "toilet paper" of Emperor Sima Zhong.
"The slaves ate with the girl and didn't eat anything else."
"Or, what have you touched?" Liu Yao also asked.
"No." Cuixi shook her head.
"Actually, speaking of it, the slaves just... used the emperor's 'toilet paper' in the afternoon." Lan Xiang whispered, "We have a lot of them in the palace, so the slaves and Cui Xi thought of using them too. , see what it feels like.”
Yang Xianrong couldn't help but laugh, "That's not it, right? If it's not all toilet paper, how can it be any better?"
"Yeah, I don't think there's anything special." Lan Xiang was very serious.
Yang Xianrong suddenly had a thought in his mind and turned to look at Liu Yao. Liu Yao was also looking at her at this time. Their eyes lit up at the same time, "Toilet paper!"
"What?" Cui Xi didn't understand and held the silk in both hands, "This is clean and has never been used before."
Yang Xianrong put the silk in his hand and sighed again at the luxurious brocade weaving technology. "Let's tell our two managers Zhang and the King of Chengdu not to use this toilet paper for the time being. You can't use it secretly."
"Yes." Cuixi immediately turned around and went out to inform them.
Yang Xianrong looked at Liu Yao and asked softly: "Could someone have poisoned him? For what reason?"
It was also the first time Liu Yao saw such a tired look on Yang Xianrong's little face. Since the day he saw her, he had never seen her with such deep dark circles and boredom. She gradually became less clear and comfortable, as if she was bound by the palace.
"Don't worry, everything will be fine." Liu Yao comforted dryly, sighing in his heart.
She had not stopped since the moment she got on the sedan chair. She originally wanted to see the excitement and went back to Xiangyang, but who knew she would stay for so long. The fire in Fengluan, the endless murders, and even the ghostly things happening in the palace due to the Shakuhachi.
She originally planned to leave here after roasting lamb for the last time for her today, but seeing her maid also fall down, the little uneasiness in her heart gradually expanded, and she didn't know how to calm down.
Cuixi and Lanxiang also drank the decoction prescribed by Imperial Physician Qin, and the diarrhea did not continue the next day. Cuixi's health is better and she has recovered. Sima Zhong at the Zhengyang Palace didn't have diarrhea either. Apart from the pain in his legs, there was nothing wrong with him.
The news that Sima Ying brought to the palace was that Sima Lun and others stopped using "toilet paper" for half a day and no longer had diarrhea.
Combined with the situation in the palace, it can be concluded that there must be something wrong with the "toilet paper".
Sima Ying moved very quickly, and immediately asked the Imperial Army to arrest all relevant personnel and throw them into prison. No one who had come into contact with "toilet paper" was spared, and Xu Qingshan was the first to bear the brunt.
He was really pitiful. He had not fully recovered from his "castration". This time he was thrown into prison and beaten severely. But he is the head of the purchasing office, and all these "toilet paper" passed through his hands before entering the palace, and he will be the one to settle the account if held accountable.
The prisons of the Forbidden Army were crowded with related prisoners. They were beaten until they cried for their fathers and mothers, and their voices of injustice were loud. No one would admit to the poisoning.
However, Sima Ying didn't care about this. What he wanted was the answer. What Sima Lun wants is to maintain stability. He repeatedly emphasized that the current situation is very unclear, and something seems to be surging faintly.
Therefore, what he needs to achieve is stability.
Confidant Sun Xiu held her belly and lost a lot of weight. He looked at the people in the prison with a gloomy face, and said coldly: "Your Majesty, maybe you can just order them all to be killed."
"We haven't found out the real culprit and his purpose yet. Just wait." Sima Lun said with a dark look on his face. There were about a hundred or so people in the prison. If they were all killed, public resentment would arise and they would be uncontrollable. .
After Emperor Sima Zhong learned about this, he was even more furious. He patted the dragon bed and shouted loudly: "These shameless people are making a fuss on my toilet paper just to kill me!"
Yang Xianrong looked at Sima Zhong dumbfounded and found that his words were extremely normal and even had the stern aura of a king.
"Your Majesty, please don't be angry. The matter still needs to be investigated again." Sima Lun looked like a loving elder again. "Now that we have found the source of the diarrhea, you should have a good rest in the past few days."
"Kill them all! Kill them all if they dare to harm me." Sima Zhong was still patting the dragon bed. Zhang Du was afraid that his hands would hurt, so he quietly placed a soft cushion under his hands, and his momentum suddenly weakened a lot.
"Actually, I have a question." Yang Xianrong still said it. "I saw an account book from Manager Zhang before. It said that the toilet paper came from Shu, thousands of miles away. The area is mountainous and foggy. The poisoning of the paper may be related to the local climate and geographical environment. If we can check the source of the toilet paper, we may be able to solve the mystery and avoid killing so many people."
"Yang Mie, what did you say?" Sima Zhong suddenly looked at Yang Xianrong, "Someone poisoned it when making it?"
"Hey, no, maybe something was contaminated during the production process? This thing is very complicated to make... Your Majesty, why don't you stop using it? The toilet paper I have over there is pretty good too." Xianrong suddenly thought, if Sima Zhong and other royal families were to abandon this precious toilet paper at this time, would it be possible to increase revenue and reduce expenditure for the palace? It seems that the previous Guanglu doctor Shi Kaizhi wrote some excerpts to describe the extravagant style of the royal family.
"That's not possible, your one over there is too hard, I don't want it." At this moment, Sima Zhong showed a silly expression again, which made people a little uncomfortable.
At this time, Sima Lun and Sima Ying really thought about Yang Xianrong's proposal. Sun Xiu asked: "The queen is so precious, how can she use ordinary things?"
"Hey, grandpa, don't say that. Rong'er is just a little girl. In fact, Rong'er has never used these toilet papers, and she doesn't have so many requirements."
"Rong'er is always a girl." Sun Xiu also looked at her with extremely loving eyes.
"Grandpa is really the best to Rong'er." Yang Xianrong smiled sweetly and asked Cui Xi to prepare red date tea immediately, "Everyone, drink some hot tea to warm yourself up."
"This kid is really considerate." Sima Lun smiled with satisfaction, his eyes softening.
Sima Zhong, who was on the bed, suddenly shouted again, "Yang Bieme, go to that Shu land and have a look. If anyone really harms me, just kill him directly."
"Nonsense, how could the Queen go to such a place?" Sima Lun disagreed.
"Why not? Yang Meie is so smart, she was the first to find out there was something wrong with the toilet paper." Sima Zhong said back, "Let Yang Meie go, and if there is anything delicious, bring some back to me. "
"Your Majesty..." Yang Xianrong curled his lips, "No, it's so far..."
"Then I'll go take a look. It might be fun. In the future, when my legs are healed, I'll go take a look." Sima Zhong's eyes were bright.
