Chapter 232 - Suspicion

Emperor Ming personally sent Qin Luofei back to Huishang Hall.

"Love Consort, we will spend the night here." Emperor Ming sat in the inner room and did not leave. Qin Luofei was still worried about Leng Mu, so she did not know if he would be invited to wait for his there tonight. If it wasn't for Emperor Ming, would he have come?

"Your majesty, chenqie wasn't prepared in the slightest. If your majesty doesn't mind, chenqie is just going to bathe and change clothes." Although she was unwilling, what could she do? From the moment she had entered the palace until now, she had been his woman, and her fate could not be changed.

Qin Luofei's face did not reveal any expression of joy. On the contrary, she was at a loss as to what to do. It was unknown when she started to especially reject Emperor Ming from turning over her cards.

"Go, I will wait for you."

On the other hand, Emperor Ming was extremely patient.

After Qin Luofei finished bathing, the Imperial Physician Lin sent someone to bring a bowl of Spirit Calming Tea to his.

"Love Consort, finish your tea and go to bed. I'm already a little tired." The Emperor Ming that was sitting in the main hall waiting for Qin Luofei looked a little tired.

"Chenqie will go to bed immediately after finishing her tea."

When she finished the cup of calming tea, she felt weak all over again. She had felt tired more than once in the past few days.

"Your Majesty, chenqie has recently felt weak all over and discovered this feeling again. Your concubine is worried that he won't be able to fulfill your wish to serve your majesty tonight. " As he spoke, Qin Luofei gently propped the corner of the table with his hands, looking very tired.

"Immediately call the imperial physician to come and take a look for you." With a worried expression, Emperor Ming caressed her small hands.

"No need, chenqie will be fine after a short rest."

Qin Luofei's expression was extremely unsightly. Recently she had been eating a normal diet, and while eating she had to pay extra attention. As for the poison, it was impossible for her to poison it. The An Shen Tang that was being drunk was also brought over by the Imperial Physician Lin, so they were extremely at ease with Qin Luofei. Maybe it was the season change that made her so tired.

"Alright then, Love Consort is not well today, rest more, I will come again another day to visit you." Emperor Ming did not blame Qin Luofei. Looking at her pale face, he could feel that she was really in pain.

"Your majesty, do you remember that you promised chenqie?" Qin Luofei did not forget about the Imperial Consort Yu.

"When did I forget what I promised you?" Later on, send someone to bring Imperial Consort Yu back to her home, where she will be grounded for one month. " Emperor Ming waved her sleeves and turned to leave.

Qin Luofei heaved a sigh of relief with great difficulty. Previously, she had been in a bad mood from serving the Emperor Ming, but now that he had left, she realized that he didn't want to bother with him. On the other hand, Daffodil Daydream, who was standing at the side, felt pity. After all, it was fortunate that she could get the Emperor Ming to change hands.

"Miss, why are you so unwell at this time? You missed such a good opportunity." Sunset Chrysanthemum looked at Emperor Ming's leaving figure and said.

"Perhaps I was not born to serve him." Qin Luofei sighed.

However, this was also good. If he were to be overly favored by the Emperor, he would only end up suffering from jealousy and framing. Qin Luofei had also found the Emperor Ming before because of this matter, and when she recently heard that he was not specially favored, her heart was finally at ease. It was only the discomfort that puzzled her. Why had she become so weak?

"Miss is now the imperial concubine doted upon by the emperor. There will be a chance next time." Sunflower thought that Qin Luofei was disappointed, but did not know that her heart was the exact opposite.

"Daffodil Dayflower, help me to the place we just went." Thinking about his date with Leng Mu, he wondered if he would still be there waiting for him at this time.

"Miss, your body is already in such a condition. You should rest well." Sunflower Flower did not understand where Miss had just come back from, and now she suddenly said that she was going there. Was she not waiting for Emperor Ming?

"Help me take a look. We'll rest when we get back."

Since she couldn't be at ease without seeing Leng Mu, she had to go and take a look no matter what. To see if he had any intentions in his heart. If he didn't come, then it would really be a matter of his imagination.

Daihua could only help Qin Luofei into the pavilion at the Peach Garden. At this moment, it was already late, and only the patrolling guards were left. nocturnal

The night wind was somewhat cold, so Qin Luofei had to wait for more than two hours, accompanied by the sound of coughing.

"Miss, it's better if you go back if you're not well." Daffodil Daydream said worriedly.

"Looks like we won't be able to wait any longer. Let's go."

Qin Luofei's face was filled with disappointment, he did not show up in the end. After returning, Qin Luofei was even more unwell.

The next day, when Qin Luofei stood up, she felt dizzy and almost fell down.

Miss, do you want to find the Imperial Physician Lin to help you treat your illness? Daffodil Daydream said.

"No." Thinking about the fact that Leng Mu did not come last night, even if Qin Luofei was sick, she did not want to trouble them. If Imperial Physician Lin came over, Leng Mu would definitely follow along as well. Right now, Qin Luofei didn't want to see him, so seeing him would only make her even more miserable.

"But Miss's body."

"Don't worry, I'll go rest after I drink this bowl of An Shen Tang. I know a bit about medicine too, don't worry about that." Qin Luofei comforted Daisy, hoping that she would not blow this matter up.

After drinking the medicine, Qin Luofei returned to her bed to rest. She laid there for a good half a day. Because she was feeling unwell, Qin Luofei did not visit the Imperial Consort Yu. She only knew that she had been sent back to the Jade Phoenix Hall by the Emperor Ming and that there were no other punishments because of the restriction on her entry. Knowing this, she relaxed and took a rest.

In the afternoon, Daihua came to the door and knocked on it, asking Qin Luofei to get up and have a meal. However, there was no response from inside the room. When Daffodil Daydream started to worry, could it be that she had fainted?

Inside the Taiyuan Hospital, Leng Mu was personally helping Qin Luofei refine her An Shen Tang.

"Leng Mu, come and help me grind these herbs. The An Shen Tang should be ready soon, I just have to bring a bowl over to Imperial Concubine Qin, there's something I need to do when I go out. " Lin He explained.

Leng Mu nodded. From coming back last night to now, his mood had always been terrible. After he finished preparing the An Shen Tang, he returned to his room to grind herbs. This was because the room they were grinding herbs in was a private room. Most people were not allowed to enter. Because the smell emitted when grinding the medicinal herbs was rather strong, they specifically grinded the herbs in the compartment. Isolated from the outside world, only the room could smell the medicine.

Not long after he arrived at the cubicle, he heard light footsteps. At first, he thought that he did not notice Lin He coming back, but then he heard a light conversation.

"Why are you so stupid? Didn't you say we're done? Only a little was given to me. "

The woman's voice came from outside.

Leng Mu hid at the door, peeked his head out and discovered that there were two maids putting medicine in the An Shen Tang. When they saw Lin He leaving, they thought that no one was in Taiyuan Hospital, and they dared to take the medicine in broad daylight. In the past, he spent most of his time outside, so it was no wonder that they thought this time was empty.

After hearing those words, the first thing that came to Leng Mu's mind was that Lin He had already given that bowl of An Shen Tang to Qin Luofei. He had no time to pay attention to who sent these two maids over. After they left, Leng Mu immediately headed towards the Huishang Hall to stop Qin Lufei from drinking the bowl of soup.

Lin He placed the soup behind the main hall like usual and left.

"Miss, I feel that your complexion is even uglier than it was this morning."

"I know. Something's wrong with my body." Qin Luofei sat down and looked at the An Shen Tang on the table. She had never doubted the Imperial Physician Lin and the others, but after drinking it this morning, her body was obviously uncomfortable. As she looked at the bowl of soup, she couldn't help but start to doubt it. She had always been very careful when it came to food, but this bowl of soup was the only thing she didn't care about.

"Daihua, this bowl of soup was sent over by Imperial Physician Lin right?"

"Yes, it is here every day at this time."

"I suspect there's something wrong with the soup." Qin Luofei picked up the An Shen Tang and was about to carefully smell its scent. Leng Mu walked in, thinking that Qin Luofei wanted to drink it. Immediately, he stretched out his hand to shatter the bowl on the ground. Qin Luofei was caught off guard and was shocked by Leng Mu's sudden action.

"Master Leng, why did you suddenly barge into the Huishang Hall?" Qin Luofei thought about how unhappy Leng Mu was because she missed an appointment last night.

"There's poison in this soup." Leng Mu determined that the two servant girls must have been drugged.

Wasn't this too much of a coincidence? Just when she suspected that there was poison in the soup, the Master Leng ran in and said that there was poison? Did he admit it because he was afraid of discovering it?

"Since the Master Leng knows about the poison in the soup, why did you give it to me for consuming?" Right now, Qin Luofei was a imperial concubine, and this was also the first time she had used her identity to scold Leng Mu.

"This one just found out, so I rushed over to tell Imperial Concubine Qin."

"Is that so? Why should I believe you? And when I happen to be in doubt, you come up and tell me there's poison in it. Then, may I ask who was the one who administered the poison? Are you trying to shirk responsibility? Master Leng. " Qin Luofei was overbearing, she repeatedly believed that this poison was caused by him.

In her previous life, she had placed too much trust in a man and caused her to lose her life in the Ten Thousand Beast Pit.

"Imperial Concubine Qin, this poison wasn't created by us. There's someone else." This one has just discovered it too.

Leng Mu did not dare look straight into his eyes. Last night, he and Emperor Ming, you and I, he no longer dared to have any illusions. It was within her expectations that she would have such an attitude towards himself today. However, she still felt a bit sad in his heart.

"Someone else? Since you know that it's someone else, may I ask who it is? "

"I was busy coming to the Huishang Hall just now to stop Imperial Concubine Qin from consuming the An Shen Tang, so I didn't have time to investigate this matter. Please keep quiet Qin Luofei, and give me some time to investigate this matter. "

"Master Leng, I had no doubts about you two before. "But I didn't expect that because of my safety, the poisoner would have the opportunity to do so." Every word that Qin Luofei said was filled with doubt for Leng Mu.

"If Imperial Concubine Qin doesn't believe me, then this one has no more to say." I am only willing to give you some time, and I will definitely give you an explanation. " Leng Mu felt extremely wronged, and now, she was no longer willing to believe in him. Qin Luofeng's suspicion made the ice in Leng Mu's heart snow even more.

"Alright, I'll give you three days. If you don't manage to investigate properly after these three days, then I'll forgive you for not remembering your old friendship." Qin Luofei thought of the past, and all of it was wishful thinking on her part. He was full of trust towards, yet he poisoned him, so his heart wouldn't be any better than Leng Mu's.
