Song Qingjin subconsciously looked at Xiao Yixuan, and then at the emperor.Xiao Yixuan was also looking at him.There was a little worry in his eyes, but there was no doubt.He looked at the queen, and said: "My empress Mingjian, this girl has served in the palace since she was a child, and was later selected by her younger brother to serve her mother and concubine in the palace. If he is said to be unfaithful and wants to poison her concubine, Doesn't that mean that the younger brother is going to murder his own mother?"

A mask-like smile appeared on the queen's face again, and she said, "Why should King Jin be angry? This palace is only doing this for the rules of the harem,"

At this time, Shan Cha knelt beside Song Qing Concubine, kowtowed several times, and said, "Return to Your Majesty, Queen Empress, Your Highness King Jin. The maidservant went to the dining room with Sister Qing Concubine to pick up things that day, and they also came back together The servant girl can testify that after Sister Qing concubine came back to put down her snacks, she went to the Empress Dowager's Hall to find the concubine, and several other maids and eunuchs in the palace also saw it. They can also testify."

The Queen sneered, and said to Shan Cha: "Is that really the case? Don't give false testimony."

Shan Cha replied: "Respond to the Empress's words. This servant dare not. Moreover, this servant has only known Elder Sister Qing for only a month, so there is no need to perjure her."

The Queen smiled.He picked up his teacup and took a sip silently.Did not speak.The emperor sat at the table, his eyes swept between the three of them for a while.

Song Qingjin knelt and took a few steps forward, and said: "Your Majesty, if you are really a concubine who was poisoned by slaves, why bother to risk the danger to report outside the palace? Why bother to ask the prince to come over, wouldn't it be like lifting a rock and hitting yourself in the foot? "

The emperor nodded.Said: "That's true. Besides, there are many people serving in the Grand Concubine's Palace, so it would be very inconvenient to poison here." After speaking, he turned his gaze to Song Qingjin again, and said, "You are by the side of the Grand Concubine. What do you think about this matter, maid who is serving you personally?"

Song Qingjin clenched her fists quietly and said, "Your Majesty, this servant feels that since Ice Orchid has been in the old concubine's food for a long time, the inquiry should be more careful. Especially the kitchen staff often cooks for the old concubine. The chef, the white case of making dim sum, even the head of the catering department, including Shang Gong, and all the people in the palace, will always come to fruition."

After Song Qingjin finished speaking, she raised her head and looked at the queen.The expression on her face seemed to change.But it quickly returned to normal.She looked at the emperor, as if asking for his opinion.The emperor said: "What you said makes sense, then I will leave this matter to you. You know the temperament of the old concubine, and it is easy to investigate. In addition, my virtuous concubine is the daughter of the minister of Dali Temple. A good hand in investigating the case, you follow her and ask her to guide you, and you must investigate the poisoning case of the concubine clearly."

That's not exactly a good thing.If he doesn't find out clearly, not only will he suffer the fault, but he may also implicate the concubine Xian.However, it is always better to take care of this matter yourself than to leave it to others.If the handle of the knife is given to the queen, who knows who will be behind her, if that is the case, it will be difficult to handle.

Song Qingjin looked at Xiao Yixuan who was standing aside.He tried his best to hide his worry.There was also the unconscious old dowager lying on the bed.She gritted her teeth, kowtowed to thank her, and said, "Thank you Your Majesty for your respect, I will definitely investigate carefully, and never let the poisoner go unpunished."

The emperor pinched his forehead.The queen was keenly aware of the emperor's fatigue, and immediately said: "Your Majesty, you seem to be tired, why don't you go to the concubine's palace to rest. The concubine also stewed white fungus soup, you go over and have a taste."

The emperor nodded, followed the queen to the door, and said to Xiao Yixuan: "Seventh brother, you can watch your mother and concubine here. In the evening, I will send a carriage to take you to the palace."

Xiao Yixuan cupped his hands to thank him and said: "Thank you, Brother Huang, for your success. The younger brother is here to take care of the mother and concubine, and I will go back at night."

After seeing off the emperor and empress, Xiao Yixuan said to Song Qingjin: "Let's go, go to your room, I have something to tell you."

Xiao Yixuan brought Song Qingmei and the doctor to her room.Song Qingjin closed the door and listened to Xiao Yixuan asking the doctor about the old concubine's physical condition.After all, the doctor is from outside the palace, unlike many imperial physicians in the palace, who have too many worries when speaking, so they are timid.

The doctor honestly replied: "My lord, the concubine is already weak. I checked the pulse of the concubine last winter, and the concubine's body was a little weak at some point. But if she takes care of her patiently, she may recover." Opportunity. That's why the old man said, tell the concubine not to worry about it, so that she can recover. But I didn't expect the concubine to be poisoned. My lord, you might as well think about it, be careful, and you can't guarantee a cure. Now I've been poisoned again, my lord, what do you think?"

Listening to the doctor's words, Song Qingjin felt as if someone had punched her in the chest, and she couldn't explain how she felt.She looked at Xiao Yixuan.The little blood on his face disappeared completely, and he pressed the table with one hand.

"No matter what, you must do your best to treat my mother and concubine. Even if there is only a little hope. No matter what medicine, as long as it works, go ahead and use it. If it is not enough, go to the king's mansion to get it. If there is no one in the mansion, I will I'll find it for you. Did you hear that?"

The doctor agreed.Song Qingjin looked at the two of them, took out a few taels of silver from her pocket, walked up to the doctor, and said, "Doctor, I'm sorry to trouble you today. This is your outpatient fee."

After the doctor took the silver, Song Qingmei sent him away.Xiao Yixuan was still sitting at the table, with his hand on his forehead, lost in thought.Song Qingmei knelt in front of Xiao Yixuan, made a gesture of pleading guilty, and said: "This servant has failed the lord's entrustment, and is ineffective in taking care of the old concubine, so I ask the lord to punish her."

Xiao Yixuan raised his head slightly, and looked at Song Qingjin who was kneeling on the ground.After a long time, he softly uttered a few words: "I don't blame you. The king should have thought of it a long time ago. Even today, the concubine mother has become a concubine, and someone still has her idea. I let down my vigilance. Can't blame others."

Song Qingjin still said: "But, the servant did not do well what you entrusted to me, don't you blame me?"

Xiao Yixuan actually smiled slightly, and said: "Not to mention that you are not to blame for this matter. Even if you are really at fault, the most important thing now is how to wake up the concubine mother and get better. Not in the Here, say something meaningless."

Song Qingjin frowned and lowered her head.Although Xiao Yixuan's plan is indifferent.But it surprised her.In the past, she always thought that Xiao Yixuan was a kind of dark and narrow-minded person.But I didn't expect that in front of such a thing, Xiao Yixuan didn't blame himself, which is really surprising.Song Qingjin thought silently, since she traveled through this book, her impression of Xiao Yixuan became more and more consistent.

Song Qingjin got up from the ground, Xiao Yixuan pointed to the seat next to him, and said, "Sit down, I have something to tell you."

Song Qingjin, like a child who made a mistake, sat down beside Xiao Yixuan slowly.Looking at his serious expression and his tightly closed thin lips, he forgot what to say for a moment.

The atmosphere became so silent and awkward.Song Qingjin tried to find a topic: "My lord, do you know how the servant girl got out yesterday?"

Xiao Yixuan finally turned his head and looked at her: "How did you get out?"

Song Qing concubine smiled bitterly, and said: "The servant girl went to beg Su Jieyu, she let the servant girl go out. Although she is a woman from the Jiangnan water town, she looks gentle and timid, but she never expected that in such a matter, she would be so tender and timid." There is a decision, and the servant is also very grateful to him."

The expression on Xiao Yixuan's face changed, and he said: "Really? I don't know, she still has such guts. However, compared to you who can stuff yourself into a bucket to report to the king, it is still worse." a little bit."

Song Qingjin felt that she was getting more and more uncomfortable.She paused for a moment, then stood up quickly and walked towards the door.When she reached the door, Xiao Yixuan stopped her: "Where are you going?"

Song Qingjin said: "My servant went to find Concubine Xian. Discuss with her and see how to investigate the poisoning of the old concubine."

Xiao Yixuan also got up from the table, walked behind her, and said: "Concubine Song Qing, you are too impatient. Concubine Xian knows about my mother and concubine, come back tomorrow, you are in such a hurry to find her, you think she will care about you?"

Song Qingjin sighed, and still asked unwillingly: "But, my lord, I'm in a hurry now, I wish I could find the murderer right now, and smash him to pieces!"

Xiao Yixuan held Song Qingmei's arm through his sleeve, and said, "I will ask the emperor tomorrow for an order. During the period of your investigation, I will often come to the palace. Mother's affairs are of course important, but you Your safety must also be taken care of.”

Song Qingjin looked up at Xiao Yixuan.He smiled slightly.She felt that Xiao Yixuan seemed to have said too much to herself today.It doesn't fit with his high-cold personality.However, just as she was about to speak, Xiao Yixuan had already left her, sat down again, and said, "I'm hungry. Go and prepare something to eat."

The emperor rested in the Queen's Palace after noon, and then went to review the memorials in the imperial study.Since he left, the servants in the palace immediately changed their smiling faces when the emperor was around, and each of them held their voices and held their breath, not even daring to breathe.

Because their master and empress have been sulking all the time, although she didn't lose her temper, it was really frightening to watch.Yuling came over with a cup of tea, her hands were trembling, and she put it on the side of the table. She just breathed a sigh of relief, but was so frightened by a crisp sound behind her that she almost jumped up.

The queen waved the teacup to the ground, and said through gritted teeth: "What a concubine Song Qing, what a Xiao Yixuan, they sing and sing together, I really underestimated them!"
