When all the performances were over, it was time for the last item of the banquet, eating flower cakes.
【hurry up! hurry up! In order to stay in shape for dancing this afternoon and evening, I ate peanuts and melon seeds and nothing else. Now my stomach is growling like a symphony! 】
Liu Man stared intently at the flower cake presented by the palace maid, her eyes more affectionate than those of the emperor...
It is said that this hundred flower cake is made from a hundred kinds of flowers collected from flowers that bloom all year round.
She didn't care to hear what these hundred kinds of flowers were. She picked up the largest piece gracefully and quickly and stuffed it into her mouth.
System: [Don’t eat! ! ! 】
But after all, he was a step too slow, and Liu Man had already chewed and chewed it all, swallowing it all into his stomach.
[Ah~ It was so dangerous, I almost starved to death! 】
The system spoke again, but the voice was trembling, with a hint of temptation: [Host, do you have a stomachache now? 】
[Why do you say this? 】
Liu Man wiped the residue from the corner of her mouth with her fingers, and licked the last bit of meringue with her tongue.
System: [The flower cake is poisonous...]
Liu Man:! ! !
System: [But it doesn’t seem to be yours. 】
The breath she took up was swallowed back into her stomach.
Liu Man: [It was so dangerous, I almost saw that I was too milky. 】
The other concubines elegantly picked up the flower cakes with their handkerchiefs and began to taste them.
Huanxi pretended to be calm and quickly walked up to the banquet, leaned into the queen's ear, and whispered:
"Mother, what's wrong, the arsenic put in the chrysanthemum tea was just bait, and Xiangyun also put musk in the flower cake. If the mistress is pregnant..."
Upon hearing the word musk, the queen already knew what Guiren Wen's true purpose was.
But no one reported pregnancy during this period, unless someone concealed it and did not report it, but Wen Guiren found out about it.
"Confused..."
The queen sighed with a headache, whether it was to Huan Xi or the pregnant concubine.
This matter concerned the emperor's heir, and the queen did not dare to make a decision without authorization. She winked at Huanxi and walked quickly towards the emperor.
"There is something wrong with the Baihua Cake, please don't eat it again!"
Huan Xi stood up and loudly reminded everyone that the eunuch was summoned to ask for the imperial doctor.
[Tong, who was this poison given to? What kind of poison was administered? 】
Liu Man was a little nervous. After all, she was the only one present who had eaten the most.
System: [Good news: The musk in the flower cake is useless to you; bad news: Roucai is already pregnant for more than a month. 】
Liu Man: ! ! !
She turned her face sideways and secretly glanced at Roucai, who was sitting on her left. She only took a bite of the cake, so it shouldn't be a big deal, right?
The queen went to the emperor and reported the matter.
"You mean there's musk in this cake?"
The emperor's face was gloomy, and a storm was brewing in his eyes. He glanced at the concubines with different expressions below, and sneered.
He grew up in the palace and was used to all kinds of privacy methods, which he hated deeply. However, there were always people who stepped on his bottom line and sought death again and again.
"Queen, tell them directly."
[Oops, I’m so anxious, Roucai won’t have an abortion, right? This gentle man is really not a good person, and he only picks out pregnant women! 】
Is he a Roucai person?
Just at this time, the imperial doctor arrived. The queen breathed a sigh of relief and without worrying too much, she quickly asked the imperial doctor to diagnose and treat the Roucai who had been sleeping with her the most recently.
Wen Guiren looked at the chaos at the banquet with cold eyes and hated the queen in his heart.
Just a little, just a little!
If the Roucai people are allowed to eat all the cakes, even the Daluo Immortal will not be able to save him.
She knew that doing so was very risky. If the matter was exposed, not only would she not be able to escape, but the second princess would also be implicated.
But she couldn't care less!
She couldn't bear to have other women around the emperor, let alone someone else being pregnant with the emperor's child.
Wen Guiren clenched his teeth, and the smell of blood filled his mouth.
So since the emperor ascended the throne, there are only two princesses and a prince who died young.
She touched her belly gently. The emperor's child can only be born by herself!
