Spoiled Wife - C79
At this point, the imperial physician wanted to kneel down and thank King Duanren. This was exactly what he wanted to ask, but he didn’t dare say much due to the presence of King Duanren, so his instructions were different.
“What the hell is going on?” At this time, Situ Ye could not help but ask.
The imperial physician also said uncertainly, “This official seems to be allergic to food, but my pulse doesn’t seem like it. I didn’t use anything to cause such reactions, so this official isn’t too sure.”
“Could he be poisoned?” At this time, the other servant girl said in a low voice. However, because everyone was quiet and thinking about this question, her voice was particularly striking.
Everyone looked at the young maid who was speaking, “Why do you think it was poison?” Shen Qi smiled and asked, the little servant was a servant of the Duke Palace and she was sent here to serve Fu Xuerou, but right now, Shen Qi was not sure which side she came from.
The moment she heard the princess’ gentle question, she was no longer so afraid. She summoned up her courage and said, “Reporting to Princess, this servant saw a person with a disfigured face before, and was given an allergy treatment in the beginning. The treatment only got worse and worse, and only after checking with a famous doctor did I find out that it was poison, so this servant guessed if …”
encouraged her with a smile, it was either her acting or it was just a coincidence. No matter what, Shen Qi planned to remain calm and collected first, she wanted to know Fu Xuerou’s motive.
Shen Qi turned her head to look at Duke Wei, who was frowning. Actually, she had also been thinking about whether she was poisoned, because the people who came out of the palace had seen a lot of private matters and anything could happen. But when she thought about her own Duke Palace, how could such a thing happen?
Fu Xuerou was only a guest who came to the Duke Palaces, who would have such a huge grudge with her to ruin her appearance? He could not understand, nor did she feel that her estate was this unclean, so she subconsciously rejected this kind of outcome. At this time, when others told him this, she could not just sit idly by and let them do nothing.
Having found a direction, King Xian immediately instructed the Imperial Physician to investigate this matter. He then looked at the Imperial Physician and asked, “Can you treat it?”
“This official will study it again.” He didn’t know what kind of poison it was, but he had no idea how to prescribe it, so he needed to study it.
King Xian also knew this logic, so he didn’t make it difficult for the imperial physician. He just asked him to think it over carefully before the investigation intensified.
Everyone waited anxiously for the result. Shen Qi felt that she finally got to touch upon the classical scene of the house after coming here for more than ten years. Should she transform into Ke Nan and say “The murderer is you”?
Before, if he was not completely sure that it was Fu Xuerou’s conspiracy, then it was completely certain now, because after the young maid said the word ‘poison’, Shen Qi realized that Dong Mei had actually secretly let out a breath of relief, and then relaxed. It was as if everything was settled and waiting for the outcome.
Fu Xuerou also did not say anything. If ordinary people knew that they were poisoned, wouldn’t they be furious and curse the person who poisoned them? She also had to swear that she would bring the poisoner to justice or dismember her body into thousands of pieces.
However, Fu Xuerou was very calm, calm to the point that it was as if she wasn’t the one being poisoned. This was abnormal, so even if it was abnormal, she would still become a demon, thus, Shen Qi was very calm. She wanted to know what Fu Xuerou would do in the end.
When Situ Ye heard the word “poison”, he narrowed his eyes for a moment. Then, he lowered his eyelids, blocking all the light in his eyes and sat by the side without asking a single question. Compared to his previous nervousness, Shen Qi felt like a completely different person.
Therefore, Shen Qi was even more certain that this was a conspiracy, but even if it was a conspiracy, it still depended on how the others played it. She wanted to know who was the unlucky one in the end.
The time he had to wait was long and worrisome, but from time to time, Shen Qi would observe the reactions of the crowd, and he did not feel that it was too hard to endure.
If something were to really happen to Fu Xuerou at the Duke Palaces, as the mistress of the Duke Palaces, she would have to take responsibility for it. She would have to uncover the truth of the matter extremely urgently, but Shen Qi was not worried now when she was certain that it was a conspiracy.
So when the guards from the Duke Palaces brought over the results of their investigations and the items involved, Shen Qi was the most relaxed in the entire room.
The guards had to report the results to King Duanren, so the imperial physician had to avoid it, and even the maids had to avoid it. Only when Shen Qi, King Duanren, Situ Ye and Fu Xuerou, who was behind the curtain, were there still left in the room did Jiang Wei take out her things, but she had a strange expression on her face.
In other words, Lanxin did it, so why? Shen Qi didn’t understand either. What was Fu Xuerou thinking? Did she think too much into it? Was it really a conspiracy or an accident?
Of course, the one with the greatest suspicion of Fu Xuerou would be the imperial concubine. However, Duke Xian knew the character of the imperial concubine, so he would not do such a shameless conspiracy. She would definitely plot against you.
But what did Lan Xin mean by this? However, no matter what, King Duanren still had to investigate this matter. Thus, he instructed Jiang Wei, “Send a few mama over to invite Lan Xin over.”
“Yes, your subordinate understands.” Jiang Wei cupped his fist and walked outside after he finished speaking.
The Sky King who was in the room looked at Situ Ye who had been silent the whole time and suddenly asked: “What do you think, Senior Brother?”
After hearing King Duan’s question, Situ Ye was also stunned, then he laughed bitterly in his heart, Junior Brother must have already discovered that something was amiss. Her junior sister thought that only she knew about the pill, but in truth, all of them knew.
In the beginning, her Junior Brother didn’t react, but at this time, he could always feel that something was wrong. In addition, she knew the background of her Junior Sister and had always carried around such mischievous powder with her.
Even if the wangfei didn’t know that there was such powder, she could tell that this was a conspiracy. The other party didn’t expose that it was just to watch a play, he had really stayed in Mo Bei for too long, his junior apprentice sister hadn’t come in contact with any schemes or tricks.
Especially these noble ladies; they had grown up in all kinds of schemes and schemes. Even if they did not do it themselves, they had seen and witnessed people much more brilliant than this. Who knew why she would think of such a clumsy idea? This was simply a joke and a joke!
At this time, Fu Xuerou came out from behind the curtain with her veil covering. Seeing Senior Brother Situ’s disapproving gaze, and looking at Wang Ye’s cold attitude, he suddenly had a bad premonition.
She looked around and realized that all the servants had retreated, leaving only the four of them in the room. She had originally wanted to let Dong Mei in, but before she could speak, Lan Xin came over.
Lan Xin didn’t understand what was going on. First, someone went to check on her, then took away a packet of scented tea, and finally brought her here. After staying in the palace for so long, this kind of scene only occurred when the concubines were framing each other.
However, she didn’t understand who in the King’s Mansion wanted to frame her. Although she didn’t like the wangfei, she had to admit that the wangfei was a generous woman, she wouldn’t do such a private thing with you. What she wanted to do was obvious.
As a result, when she entered and saw the princess consort as well as the two other guests, Sir Situ and Miss Fu, she knew that it was very likely to be related to these two guests.
Lan Xin paid her respects. “Your servant greets Your Highness.” King Xian waved his hand to excuse her. Then, he pushed the package of scented tea towards her and said, “Look, this is yours?” His tone was serious and his expression was cold.
Lan Xin looked at him and nodded. “In reply to your highness, I am your servant.” This thing was found in his own yard. Who else could it belong to?
She then looked at King Duan, hoping to learn the specific details from him. She really wanted to know what the Miss Fu was up to, and at this time, the wangfei had been sitting steadily at the side the entire time, smiling as she watched the situation. She didn’t have any intention of interrupting.
Lan Xin was moved, but at the same time, she was confused. Allergy? He did not have anything in his scented tea that could cause an allergic reaction, and Miss Fu had been drinking for so long, so why did he suddenly become allergic?
However, King Xian didn’t want to continue talking, so he waved his hand and said, “Alright, you can leave. Don’t come out in the yard for the next few days. Others don’t need to look for you there.” As he said that, he especially glanced at Fu Xuerou.
Lan Xin immediately knew that the prince was protecting her. On the surface, he was prohibiting her feet, but in reality, he was afraid that Miss Fu would cause trouble for her again. Thus, she happily agreed, but she didn’t understand why this Miss Fu wanted to harm her.
So before leaving, he deliberately glanced at Fu Xuerou, and realized that she was looking at him with an expression of disbelief, as if she couldn’t accept the truth. This discovery eased Lan Xin’s depressed mood, and she turned to leave with light footsteps.
Fu Xuerou couldn’t understand what was wrong. Shouldn’t you investigate a bit more carefully? After that, she let Dong Mei and the others point out their doubts. Lan Xin didn’t have any conflict of interest with her, so why would she be harmed?
And this morning, Lan Xin stayed in Cang Lan Yuan and Princess Wang Fei for fifteen minutes, when something happened to her at night, isn’t it very obvious who did this? In this way, he could directly draw out Lan Xin. If Lan Xin was to listen to his wife and poison him, then why didn’t she follow his script and leave?
