It is said that Emperor Yuande has never forgotten the delicious mutton since he ate it.
The food in the imperial kitchen was always unsatisfactory, and she would not let go of the chili peppers, and would even talk about it. Even the queen knew it, and said something with a straight face: "Long live you, please take care of yourself, don't be careless."
This made Emperor Yuande depressed.
Go to other concubines, too. They won’t eat anything with strong flavors. In their words: This is the rule, you must not smoke the emperor!
Emperor Yuande sent people to search secretly, but could not find the girl from that day at all.
"It's strange, can you grow wings and fly?" Emperor Yuande asked strangely.
Chen Yuandao: "Your Majesty, since you saw it, they must all be from the palace. After New Year's Eve, on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, many palace residents were released from the palace by the Queen's order. How about I send more people to look for them? "
Emperor Yuande waved his hand, "Forget it, don't disturb her life. Now that she is out of the palace, she should be with her relatives and enjoy the happiness of family."
Chen Yuan wondered in his heart, what kind of girl was she, who actually let the emperor say that, she was so blessed!
As he was talking, someone suddenly came to report, "Your Majesty, Concubine Xiang has had a miscarriage! The Queen has sent someone to ask you to go and have a look."
"What?" There has been no good news in the palace for a long time. Emperor Yuande attaches great importance to Xiang's concubine's pregnancy. "Why did she have such a miscarriage? Let's go and have a look!"
"The Emperor has arrived!"
"Greetings to the Emperor!"
"Your Majesty!" Concubine Xiang cried loudly. She was lying on the bed and wanted to get up, but Emperor Yuande pushed her back. "You are not in good health, so just lie down."
At this time, many concubines had gathered in the room, and the smell of blood in the room made Emperor Yuande even more agitated.
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty, this concubine is incompetent and failed to protect the child. The child is gone." Concubine Xiang no longer cared about the rules. She pulled Emperor Yuan De's clothes and cried, "You have to avenge this child! Your Majesty! Yes. Someone harmed me!"
Emperor Yuande frowned and looked at the queen, "What is going on? Isn't Xiangbi's fetus always stable?"
The queen hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Yes! The imperial doctor came to diagnose her just now and said that the concubine Xiang had eaten something she shouldn't have eaten. She bled excessively and lost the child."
"What did you eat?"
Xiang Concubine shook her head desperately, "I know that it is a big deal to be pregnant with a dragon heir. I don't dare to eat casually. All the food is delivered from the imperial kitchen. The concubines of the concubine also eat first, and then I dare to eat." Yes. I really didn’t eat anything else!”
"Take everyone in the imperial dining room who is responsible for the concubine's meals to the Shenxing Division for severe torture!" Emperor Yuande was furious, "Someone dares to murder the emperor's heirs and kill the nine tribes!"
"Your Majesty, please don't get so angry. I have taken away all the relevant people in the imperial kitchen. The food that Xiang Concubine used today has also been found. The imperial doctors are examining it. Your Majesty, please calm down." The Queen advised.
"Okay! Check it for me! I want to see who is so brave!"
After a while, the imperial doctor stepped forward tremblingly and reported, "Your Majesty, there is nothing wrong with this meal."
"No problem?" Emperor Yuande frowned, "Then what does the imperial doctor think the problem is?"
"This... I need to ask Empress Xiangbi to think about it. Are there other things imported?" The imperial doctor asked the question to Xiangbi herself.
"Impossible! I haven't eaten anything before. What else could it be if it wasn't the food?" Concubine Xiang burst into tears and cried, "Your Majesty, you have to make the decision for me!"
"Think carefully!" Emperor Yuan De frowned and tapped his fingers on the table.
No one dared to speak, for fear that the anger would spread to themselves.
Suddenly, the girl who was serving the Xiang concubine, named Caiyun, came forward, knelt down and said, "I remember something. Last night, our wife was bored and went to the garden for a walk. She met the good concubine and we made peace together. a cup of tea."
Jia Concubine was startled. Everyone looked at Jia Concubine. The emperor also looked over, "Jia Concubine, is this possible?"
Shen Ruoyi hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Back to the emperor, I did meet Sister Xiang in the garden yesterday, but it was a chance encounter, and I also drank the tea..."
"You're not pregnant. You can't prove it whether you drink or not..." Concubine Duan said, "This concubine should think of some other evidence."
Shen Ruoyi hurriedly knelt down and said: "Your Majesty! This tea is just ordinary tea, and Sister Xiang's maid also checked it, and she drank it now. There was not even half a cup in total. Besides, I have no grievances with you. Qiu, there is no reason to harm her!"
"It's undeniable, Your Majesty. There are a lot of fights for favor in this palace. There may be no reason for this. Being pregnant with the dragon heir is the reason." Concubine Duan snorted: "This beautiful concubine has never had a child. She might be a ghost. The boss has done something bold!"
"Your Majesty, be careful what you say!" Shen Ruochen said angrily: "There is no proof or evidence for this kind of thing, and I won't admit it!"
"Yes, you said you have no proof, but this concubine just drank half of your cup of tea and didn't touch anything else! How do you explain this?"
"This..." Shen Ruoyi was speechless for a moment.
Concubine Li on the side asked the imperial doctor, "May I ask the imperial doctor, if this was not what I ate today but what I ate last night, would it have caused an attack at this time?"
The imperial doctor nodded, "If the dose of medicine is small, it is possible."
Shen Ruoyi looked at Li Bin fiercely. If it was just a guess, then what Li Bin asked was clearly to confirm this matter in terms of time!
Shen Ruoyi kowtowed vigorously to Emperor Yuan De, "Your Majesty, the Queen has learned from the mistakes! This concubine was definitely wronged and she has never done anything! You can't just let this concubine be detained just because she met Xiang Concubine by chance. On the concubine’s head, the concubine is unjustly accused!”
"Jia concubine, don't deny it!" Concubine Duan snorted.
"What do I admit? Is there anyone who witnesses this matter? Is there any physical evidence? Why are you holding it on my head?" The concubine cried and crawled a few steps towards Emperor Yuan De, and cried: "Your Majesty, your concubine I really don’t dare to admit this! Please be more careful and clear my name.”
"Your Majesty," the queen said, "this beautiful concubine has always been cautious since she entered the palace, so she should not be able to do this."
Shen Ruoyi looked at Queen Nala with great gratitude.
"What the Queen said is terrible. Is this evidence that can be seen, is it just speculation?" Concubine Duan snorted from the side: "Although there is no evidence now, the concubine is also the biggest suspect at present! We have to check!”
"emperor……"
"Okay!" Emperor Yuande looked at the concubine who was kneeling on the ground with tears on her face, and then at the concubine Xiang who had lost her beloved son, and said with a sullen face: "Concubine! This matter is of great importance. Before I investigate clearly, I can only wrong you first."
