After a while, the fifth prince, who was originally in agony, slowly began to breathe steadily, his brows stretched out, and he fell asleep peacefully.
Nangong Yue breathed a sigh of relief. He took the dry handkerchief and wiped his forehead for the fifth Prince and sat down again.
At this time, the queen came in, followed by mother Li and Xueqin.
"Miss Yue, what's the situation of huang'er?"
After seeing the ceremony, Nangong Yue replied, "my mother, the fifth Prince's condition has stabilized, and there is no danger of life for the time being."
The queen nodded, still deep lock eyebrows, although she also knew that this matter could not come
"Miss Yue, look at these..." The queen waved and motioned for mother Li to give the things to Nangong Yue.
Nangong Yue took it and saw it, but it was a list of what the five princes had eaten today, when and where he ate it. Even a mouthful of water and a mouthful of tea were clearly written on it.
As for the soup and medicine taken by the fifth prince, he wrote it more clearly, even the amount of the medicine.
Mother Li is really careful in her work. No wonder she can become the confidant of the queen.
In the previous life, Nangong Yue only knew that the fifth Prince died of a serious illness after the Palace Banquet. In fact, she did not know the real cause of his serious illness. At the moment, after carefully looking at it twice, she pondered for a moment, pointing to three kinds of food and saying, "Niang, don't you know if there are any of these three kinds of food? I want to see it. "
Without the Queen's asking, mother Li even said, "these are the food for the Palace Banquet. After the accident of the fifth Prince's highness, they have already sent people to keep these foods."
The queen nodded with satisfaction and told mammy Li to get it.
Mother Li was ordered to take people away in a hurry, and then brought the three kinds of food, which were displayed in front of Nangong Yue.
Nangong Yue looked at the sesame Phoenix roll, chrysanthemum cake and walnut crisp on the table, and tasted them one by one.
"Sugar chrysanthemum cake..." Nangong Yue whispered, his face changed slightly.
"Why, but what's wrong?" When the empress saw that Nangong Yue looked wrong, she asked eagerly.
"It's yuanhengzi." "Nangong Yue looks dignified," the sugar chrysanthemum cake added genkwan Heng son. " After that, without waiting for the queen to ask, he explained, "yuanhengzi is a tonic, which tastes sweet, so it's hard to be noticed if you add it to a sweet cake. The problem is that yuanhengzi and wuhuangzi drink each other's herbs every day. The toxicity is very severe for children! "
"No wonder!" When the queen ate the cake, the fifth prince happily told her that the cake was sweeter than usual
"Alas Nangong Yue sighed, "yuanhengzi is also a very precious tonic, but it is used for this purpose. If my grandfather knew that, he would be very sad
"Very precious?" The Queen's heart moved, "is this medicine called yuanhengzi very rare?"
"Very rare, of course!" Nangong Yue looked like a doctor, "yuanhengzi is a very nourishing and rare medicinal material. Even in the herbal hall outside, this kind of medicine is rarely sold! "
Baicaotang is the largest medicine shop in Wangdu, which is famous for its wide range of medicinal materials. This medicine shop has been open for hundreds of years. Before entering the palace, the queen also heard a little. There are few herbs in the herbal hall, which shows that the medicinal materials are hard to find.
"That's very rare!" The Queen's nails are deeply embedded in the palm of her hand. How could such a rare medicine appear in the imperial dining room for no reason? Someone must have plotted this matter secretly!
Who is it? Who is trying to harm her son?
"Queen, what's the matter with you?" Nangong Yue looks anxious. Naturally, she understood what the queen was thinking at the moment, because this was what she intended to guide the queen to think in this direction.
"Oh! It's ok... " The queen was awakened from her contemplation, and she reluctantly drew up a smile, "Yue wench, you have been busy in the middle of the night, and you are also tired! Go and have a rest first "Xueqin, take Nangong three girls to have a rest!"
"Yes." Xueqin came up and said, "Nangong three girls, please follow me."
"Thank you." Nangong Yue respectfully saluted the empress, and then said, "the minister daughter knows that the empress is worried about the fifth Prince's highness, but she still asks her mother to take care of the Phoenix body for the sake of the fifth prince." Finish saying that, south palace Yue again gave a gift, "that minister female to leave first." Then, she walked away with Xueqin.
Take care of your Phoenix body? The empress smiles bitterly. Although she is the head of the harem, the emperor shows her nothing but respect for the queen. Beside her, concubine Zhang, concubine Liu, and Li pin have been eyeing each other. None of them is simple! If she goes to rest, who will protect her fengluan palace? Who did the emperor live for her?
After all, the queen is the queen. After a short period of self pity, she immediately cleaned up her mood. She was the invincible queen who was in charge of the six palaces!
But in her heart, she was closer to Nangong Yue who really cared about her at this time.
"Mammy Wen," the queen ordered to mammy Wen, "take someone to the imperial dining room in person, and announce that the imperial chef who makes the sugar chrysanthemum cake will come to meet you!""Yes, Madame!"
The queen waited for a long time in fengluan palace, but she didn't see mammy Wen coming back. Just as she was impatient and ready to send another person to have a look, Mammy Wen, who had been sent by her earlier, came back in a panic.
The queen frowned and heard mammy gasping: "Niang! So That chef Wang has killed himself
"What?" The queen clapped the table angrily. "He must have committed suicide! Check it for me! Let me find out who killed the emperor of our palace
"Empress..." Mammy hesitated to move her lips, but she did not dare to say.
"If you have anything to say, you are not guilty." The queen is a little impatient. At this time, there is nothing to be hesitant about.
"My mother, the people in the imperial dining room all said that the matter of the fifth Prince's highness was an accident, but she was cruel and ruthless and forced the Royal cook to death!" I heard mammy say in a puff.
"This palace forced him to death?" No matter what he heard, the emperor's funeral is really like a joke
Hearing mammy shiver, she was obviously frightened by the Queen's murderous words.
The queen soon calmed down again. In fact, Wang's suicide proved her conjecture from the side, and there was a ghost behind it! She ordered again coldly: "continue to investigate for this palace! Although this man is dead, it doesn't mean that the clue has been broken. I'd like to see where he came from? "
