Then the empress took out a note and handed it to the Emperor: "look at this. The concubine said that when concubine Li was poisoned, she saw someone sprinkling water into the flower bed."
"Originally, the time for logistics to arrange watering was that point, but the concubine didn't pay attention on weekdays. When I thought of it, I thought it was really suspicious."
The emperor nodded, looked at a basket full of notes on the ground, comforted the queen and said, "it's hard for the queen."
The empress shook her head: "what's so hard? It's right to work for the emperor."
Hearing some official but warm words from the two, mu Zhihuan couldn't help thinking of herself and Gu Mingxuan in her heart.
Looking at mu Zhihuan, she suddenly found that there seemed to be a little something wrong. Holding this note in her hand, she said she saw someone transporting earth to Princess Qing's palace.
But this autumn is not the planting season. What does she want this soil to do?
Although she was very confused, mu Zhihuan pressed it down.
I thought it could be solved soon, but I didn't expect that I was busy until nightfall.
There was no harvest on the Queen's side, and there was no obvious evidence on mu Zhihuan's side, so they discussed to seal things first and continue tomorrow.
After reading the note room for two days, I felt like I was about to vomit. It seems that there is only the note of Princess Qing. It's strange.
So that afternoon, mu Zhihuan asked Shen Zhiqiu to visit imperial concubine Qing's palace.
Shen Zhiqiu, of course, dawdled and asked how she had written to Wu Miao. Mu Zhihuan reluctantly turned his eyes: "don't worry, I've received your silver ticket, and the letter has naturally been sent."
Hearing what mu Zhihuan said, Shen Zhiqiu went to attack imperial concubine Qing's palace at night.
I thought I could get some clues, but I didn't expect Shen Zhiqiu to bring back any news.
"No way. Did you miss something?"
According to her observations these days, Princess Qing should be the most suspect.
Shen Zhiqiu shrugged: "I observed carefully according to your requirements. There was a place in the layout of her courtyard, but there was nothing on it."
"There's nothing?"
Mu Zhihuan was a little confused. She gathered her eyes and frowned: "forget it... Please, go and help you first."
After seeing Shen Zhiqiu off, mu Zhihuan thought on the stool about what went wrong.
After thinking for a long time, he didn't have a clue. It happened that Tuanzi came back from the outside.
Seeing mu Zhihuan, he came forward very intimately: "Zhihuan ~ why don't you come out with us today?"
Looking at the little dumpling's red face, mu Zhihuan couldn't help pinching: "I have something to be busy. Did you have a good time with the emperor?"
Xiaotuanzi nodded fiercely: "happy! We watched the fun crickets, and then ate delicious cakes."
Seeing that he was so happy, mu Zhihuan felt relieved, but at the same time, he was a little lost.
It seems that he is getting used to the life in the palace, which means that she will leave the palace and xiaotuanzi's side in the near future.
Little Tuanzi didn't know the situation at all, but happily adhered to Mu Zhihuan and told her about her experience of going out today.
Mu Zhihuan listened to all this with a smile, and her eyes also rippled with a smile.
"By the way, when we went to play today, we met the lady last time."
"The lady last time?"
Mu Zhihuan frowned, thought about it, and asked with some uncertainty, "do you mean Princess Qing?"
Little Tuanzi tilted his head and thought for a moment: "well, it's the lady who doesn't allow us to find the queen."
Hearing that she met Princess Qing, mu Zhihuan was interested: "what do you want her to do?"
"I just met her when I was playing in the garden." xiaotuanzi said, and suddenly remembered something:
"But it's so strange that other empresses always take their entourage when they go out, but Princess Qing is alone in the courtyard. She looks as if she's waiting for someone."
"When her father asked her, imperial concubine Qing only said that she was relaxing. Originally, her father invited her to play together, but she refused, saying that she was unwell."
There was nothing strange about being alone in the courtyard, but even the Emperor invited her, Princess Qing refused.
That's strange. No matter who the concubines in the harem are, they always want to be pitied by the emperor. How can they refuse the emperor?
Mu Zhihuan frowned at his lower jaw: "can Ran'er tell me in which Yard did you see Princess Qing?"
The little group thought for a moment and said, "it's behind the courtyard we went to last time. There's a small garden in it."
Mu Zhihuan nodded, reached out and rubbed the small ball's furry head: "Ran'er played all day, are you tired?"
Xiaotuanzi was honest: "well..."
Looking at the way the little ball rubbed her eyes, mu Zhihuan felt a soft heart: "let Qi Niang take you to wash, and then have a rest?"
With that, mu Zhihuan called Qi Niang and watched Qi Niang go down with a small ball. Mu Zhihuan gathered her eyes and went out of the "moshang hall" alone and went straight to the courtyard mentioned by the small ball.
I walked around the rockery. Sure enough, I saw the garden full of flowers that xiaotuanzi said. I folded the wood paper flowers and looked. It seemed that there were a lot of lilacs in the garden.
This is the flowering period of lilac, the whole yard is purple, and it looks particularly pleasing to the eye.
Mu Zhihuan watched carefully as she walked along the path. As she walked, she suddenly found that a small clove flower not far from the roadside hung down and looked wilted.
Emboldened to go in, mu Zhihuan found that there seemed to be traces of being turned under the lilac soil. She picked up a branch and mu Zhihuan turned over the soil.
Then she turned up a lot of red fruits in the soil. Mu Zhihuan took out her handkerchief and wrapped up a few red fruits, and then buried the soil back.
When she returned to the "moshang hall", xiaotuanzi had fallen asleep because she was too tired.
Looking at the small group sleeping peacefully, mu Zhihuan couldn't help smiling. After all, she was still a child. She was not used to changing the environment, but she had to adapt in a few days.
The next day, mu Zhihuan took the red fruits he picked up yesterday to the Tai hospital early in the morning.
When the people in the Imperial College Hospital saw the things wrapped in her handkerchief, an older Imperial College doctor took a breath:
"This is the fruit of lily of the valley? How can there be Lily of the valley in the palace?"
