Zhao An refused to answer the empress's questions, and she couldn't let her know about the matter with the empress dowager.
Today the Queen Mother suddenly investigated Zhou Fang, which shows that she has murderous intentions and wants to make more money.
After the empress finished commenting, Zhao An called a young eunuch to send the secret letter back to Cining Palace, and then went to the imperial dining room in person.
Unexpectedly, I saw Zhou Fang coming out of the room. The latter said with a smile: "What a coincidence, I bumped into Eunuch Zhao again. The Za family wishes to greet you."
Tsk tsk tsk!
Neither yin nor yang, either adultery or robbery!
Zhao An returned the gift in a false manner, "I heard that Eunuch Fang was punished, are you okay?"
"Don't mention it. It's our family's blessing to be punished by the Queen Mother. However, there is a banquet in the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests. As a slave, we still have to pay more attention. Our family takes the first step."
After saying that, he hurriedly left the imperial dining room.
At the same time, Xiao Shunzi stood quietly behind Zhao An and said secretly: "The old guy has no good intentions. He just gave the younger one a bag of tea, saying that it was a high-quality tea paid tribute by Annan Kingdom, and he planned to use it tonight." Lose."
"Hey, I actually want to go together."
Zhao An originally had the idea of drugging, but Zhou Fang was even more ruthless, planning to kill everyone in the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests at once. If anything went wrong, Xiao Shunzi would definitely die, and Zhao An, as the person behind Xiao Shunzi, was naturally to blame.
A young eunuch summoned Dr. Wang. He took the tea and smelled it. He was surprised and said: "There is some intestinal medicine in it. The dosage is not large, but it will cause unbearable abdominal pain."
"Where did Zhou Fang get these things?"
"I don't know about this, but he is responsible for the procurement of the internal affairs treasury. Maybe he prepared it while he was out shopping."
The explanation given by Dr. Wang is alarming. If Zhou Fang had bought it a long time ago, it means that he still wanted to harm others, but never did it, and now he used it on him, the newly promoted general manager.
Zhao An thought for a while and told Xiao Shunzi to send this tea and the generous gift prepared for Zhou Fang to the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests later, and let him drink a pot of it no matter what.
Before leaving, he asked Dr. Wang for some antidote.
It was noon in a blink of an eye, and the imperial dining room was ready.
Zhao An accompanied the empress to the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests and told the truth about Zhou Fang's affairs.
The empress said indifferently: "The servants in the harem are all upset. I really think I can't lift the sword."
"You really can't afford it, otherwise you wouldn't be reduced to this."
"Slave, you can shut up if you don't know how to speak."
The empress glared angrily, wanting to beat him up.
While talking, I came near the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests and saw a general in golden armor and an old eunuch with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks guarding outside the hall.
The eunuch is Eunuch Liang, the great eunuch who oversees the affairs of the concubines, and the majestic general with the black bow on his back is an old acquaintance of Zhao An. Unfortunately, he is wearing a gold mask and his appearance cannot be seen clearly.
Even the empress couldn't help but look at the other party.
Chang Yuan knelt on one knee, seemingly very loyal. The Empress said with a smile: "I didn't expect that the Queen Mother would arrange for General Chang Yuan to come over. Are you worried about someone assassinating him?"
"Your Majesty was joking, it was just a routine duty."
After a brief chat, the empress strode into the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests. Zhao An followed suit and muttered secretly: "Do you know him?"
"I don't know much about him. It is said that he is a general of the Luo family. His archery skills are superb and he can hit wherever he points."
"Isn't this more powerful than a gun?"
Zhao An was secretly speechless.
Since the Queen Mother is so obsessed with it, why not kill Chen Guogong and wait for nothing?
The empress shook her head bitterly. If she could see through the Queen Mother, she would not be ignored.
Anyway, don't think about winning over Chang Yuan, that kind of person is not comparable to Zhang Ming.
"The prince is here——"
Luo Qingshuang had arrived a long time ago and was sitting in the main hall now, looking elegant and elegant, waving with a smile.
Wei Yundiao was standing behind her, and Zhou Fang was also there, but he was not qualified to stand in such a high position, he was just standing by His Highness.
In addition, there is Cao Hai, the old eunuch of Xiufang, the slave leader of the harem, who has no eyebrows and smiles like a crooked pistachio, which is inexplicably disgusting.
Generally, if a servant in the harem commits a crime, he will be sent to him for "training".
But in this situation, he should not be used...
Zhao An was alert and couldn't help but take a second look. Cao Hai happened to raise his head and their eyes met. Zhao An felt goosebumps falling down.
What a wretched face, this guy is definitely not a good guy!
Zhao An helped the empress go to the palace and sit down. The table was filled with delicacies from thousands of years in the future.
Although the empress had eaten some, she still couldn't help but gasped, and glared at Zhao An sadly. There were so many good tricks, but she didn't know how to honor her in advance!
Zhao An lowered his head and pretended not to see her little eyes, but secretly looked at Zhou Fang.
I don't know if he drank tea. Judging by the time, he won't be able to bear it in another quarter of an hour.
In fact, the empress could kill the Queen Mother just by using the bag of tea as evidence, but it was better for the Queen Mother to deal with it herself.
Next, Luo Qingshuang took the empress's hand and said some thoughtful words.
Zhao An felt sleepy after hearing this. Suddenly Luo Qingshuang waved her sleeves, and Wei Yundiao asked someone to bring some tea. She smiled and said: "Eunuch Zhao, you have always been with the emperor, and you have made great contributions. I'm sorry. I will give you a cup of fine tea."
Zhao An's body trembled.
Wait, something's wrong!
Something is extremely wrong!
What kind of trouble did the old witch make? Looking at Zhou Fang's triumphant appearance, there is something wrong with this tea cliff!
"Ahem, Zhao An, the Queen Mother has given me a reward, but I haven't accepted it yet."
The empress, Little Cutie, didn't know what was going on, so she secretly warned her.
Zhao An smiled and said: "Queen Mother, it is natural for a servant to serve Your Majesty. How dare I ask for a reward? Your Majesty has been working hard all day long on paperwork, and I am very distressed. Why don't I lend you this cup of tea and offer it to Your Majesty with flowers?"
Luo Qingshuang was shocked when she heard this.
This shameless slave is very smart, but full of evil.
Seeing that there was something wrong with her tea, she pulled the emperor out to block the gun!
Absolutely amazing!
Luo Qingshuang did not answer, but said with a faint smile: "Eunuch Zhao, do you think it is a good thing that the harem is singing and dancing?"
"Qingping Yan Le is naturally a good thing."
"Since you don't want tea, the Aijia will give you a gift to reward your loyalty."
Luo Qingshuang waved her hand and saw Chang Yuan in golden armor carrying a young eunuch into the hall and throwing him in front of the emperor.
The little eunuch knelt on the ground and shivered in fear.
Zhao Andeng was immediately horrified!
"Keep your head up."
Luo Qingshuang remained calm and proud. His Highness's little eunuch slowly raised his head, his face ashen as death.
It's Xiao Shunzi!
The main hall was dead silent, and Zhou Fang smiled so hard that his mouth twisted.
Only then did Zhao An realize that he had bumped into Zhou Fang in the imperial dining room before. Zhou Fang knew that his poisoning plan could not be carried out, so he took the initiative to report to the Queen Mother that there was something wrong with the tea in the imperial dining room, and he did not drink the tea that Xiao Shunzi prepared for him. The prepared tea was delivered instead.
This is the cup in front of you!
As a result, even if you have a mouth, you can't explain clearly.
