The way Steward Wang poisoned was very secret. Although the Imperial Library had rarely sent pamphlets, they did occasionally. She might had already tried to poison Yun Shang, but Yun Shang was immune to poisons, so she did not succeed.
Since he didn't succeed in drugging Yun Shang, Steward Wang chose to take actions against Hua Ling when Yun Shang left the palace and handed over all the household affairs to her.
It could be seen that Steward Wang must have her own purpose. But what she wanted was not the life of Yun Shang or Hua Ling. What she wanted was only that the person in charge of the household affairs was poisoned.
"Your Majesty?" Pei Lan asked in a low voice.
Yun Shang suddenly came to her senses, shook her head and continued to walk towards the Taihe Palace.
"How did His Majesty and His Former Majesty deal with it after they knew the pamphlet was from the Imperial Library?"
"The steward was taken away and imprisoned. She should have been interrogated later, but we don't know how she had been dealt with in the end. Since Your Majesty is not in the palace, we can only pry into information in private. But we don't know much about the specific situation. "
Yun Shang frowned slightly. The evidence was clear. The crime of poisoning Her Former Majesty could be convicted. The murderer should be dealt with in public. However, neither Pei Lan nor Hua'er had heard anything of it, and they didn't know what the final result of Steward Wang was. It was a little strange.
There must be something wrong.
Soon they arrived at the gate of the Taihe Palace. The palace was heavily guarded, and there were four guards standing at the gate.
"Her Majesy is coming. Go in and inform His Former Majesty and Her Former Majesty."
The guard answered, and one of them turned around and entered the door quickly.
After a short while, he came out in a hurry and opened the door. "Please come in, Your Majesty."
The servants took Yun Shang directly to the inner hall.
As soon as she reached the door of the inn
the speed of placing her pieces at all. "I didn't expect that I would get into trouble just after I escaped. As soon as I got out of danger, I was taken away again. Then I tried every means to contact the secret guards and escaped secretly. "
Yun Shang said indifferently, but Xia Huanyu and Hua Ling could imagine how thrilling it was from these few words.
Yun Shang didn't intend to explain it in detail. She looked up at Hua Ling and said, "I heard something about the palace on the way here just now. I'm wondering how father and mother dealt with Steward Wang. What did you get from the interrogation? "
Hua Ling and Xia Huanyu looked at each other. After Xia Huanyu placed a piece, he asked casually, "Do you know why Steward Wang poisoned?"
Yun Shang hesitated for a moment and said, "I guessed it just now. The way she poisoned was very secret. She had handed some pamphlets before, and I guessed that she must have poisoned me too. But I was immune to poisons, so she failed."
"This time, I left the palace and entrusted mother with the Imperial Household affairs. Then she poisoned her. I guess she poisoned not to kill me or my mother, but to put the people who was in charge of the Imperial Household affairs in trouble and unable to deal with the affairs, so she could take action. "
"But I don't know what on earth she wanted to do."
