Qinrou drank the medicine, and the medicine given by the queen in the evening was no longer with her.
She doesn’t mind drinking another bowl, it’s medicine! There is a high probability that drinking it won’t kill anyone. If there are any adverse reactions after taking two bowls of medicine, then that’s it!
But the queen has always been careful. It should be said that she is more attentive to the concubines that the emperor loves. It is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.
Besides, Li Dequan also sent the dirty things found in Zhenshun Zhai to Kunning Palace. At that time, the queen's face suddenly turned into a forced smile. The reason is none other than charcoal fire.
With this charcoal fire, the possibility of being tampered with after entering Zhenshun Zhai is almost non-existent; in other words, it is almost equivalent to being secretly manipulated before entering Zhenshun Zhai.
The queen looked stern. As a queen, she could only take on this responsibility. She could only smile and say to Eunuch Li: "Please tell Eunuch Li to tell the emperor that I will definitely get to the bottom of this matter."
The queen is in charge of the affairs in the harem, and the queen is in control of the House of Internal Affairs. Now there may even be such a big mistake in the harem or the House of Internal Affairs. It would be okay if it didn't happen, and it would pass quietly, but now that it has happened, she, as a queen, is incompetent.
"There is still Nala, the concubine. Is there any harm?" the queen asked with concern. "What did the Royal Physician Wang say? Did he give a plan to recuperate?"
"Concubine Nala's body was somewhat affected. The Emperor has ordered the Royal Physician Wang to prescribe a prescription and take some medicine. "Let's drink for a while and wait for the follow-up results." Li Dequan was the most sensible person and said everything, but in fact he didn't reveal much.
But it reveals one meaning: Concubine Nala must have been affected. The extent and extent of the influence are kept secret.
The queen frowned and swallowed her words. There were some things that she could only talk to the emperor about, but nothing could be gained from Li Dequan. The queen said: "Concubine Nala has suffered a great injustice."
Who says it's not the case? Li Dequan said. How could you not feel aggrieved? Heirs in the harem are so important, and others can’t find one despite all their efforts and begging gods and Buddhas. The opportunity is clearly right in front of them, so close that they can grab it immediately. However, with such a commotion, the emperor’s heir has no idea when it will take him. Yes.
But this is a member of the palace. You plot against me, and I plot against you; which emperor's heir has not experienced countless difficulties before arriving?
Concubine Nala is pretty well. He discovered it early. He looked at it. The emperor was not able to let go of Concubine Nala in a short while. She might have recovered her health. I can get pregnant with one as soon as possible.
But Li Dequan can't just follow the Queen's words! So Li Dequan could only laugh along with him and said: "It seems to me that Concubine Na La is not that aggrieved. Don't you and the Emperor make the decision for her? Your Majesty ordered Dr. Wang to replace Concubine Na La." The concubine is being nursed back to health, and you will make things clear for her. How could you feel wronged?”
Li Dequan has been in the palace for many years, so he understands that the real grievance is: he is full of grievances and has nowhere to say it!
No one wants to listen. No one wants to hear it. No one cares.
The queen smiled. The moment Li Dequan finished speaking, the queen understood the meaning of the emperor's words. She was asked to tie this matter to Bo Heli's torture of the palace slaves and investigate. The matter is big enough, and the commotion in the palace is so big.
Although this matter may be big or small, it is neither too big nor too small. But since the emperor means: big investigation, the queen will only understand it. This is the tacit understanding between the emperor and the queen.
Queen Linglie said: "I also want to see which god and Buddha is in this harem, with hands and eyes reaching to the sky, reaching into the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Musk is not for pregnancy and contraception. If you are pregnant, you will miscarry. If this During this period, Concubine Nala was pregnant with the emperor's heir..." The queen did not continue. No one needed to mention this consequence, and everyone knew about it, "I would like to see which Tathagata Buddha is in the palace. He stirs up troubles like this, killing concubines and harming the emperor’s heirs.”
Since a strict investigation is required, the queen will only take it seriously. Since one wave has not subsided, another has arisen, and the emperor also intends to cause a big disturbance in the palace, the queen will only do what the emperor wants.
......
"Charcoal fire." Li Dequan dug out the stolen goods and personally delivered them to Kunning Palace and handed them over to the queen of the main palace, and then returned to Qianqing Palace to resume his life.
He didn't know that during this period, the emperor had already had troubles. Qinrou was surprised when she heard this.
"Yes," Li Dequan reported back: "My servant and Dr. Wang have checked them one by one, and everything else is fine. Only when the charcoal fire burns, the musky smell comes out. My servant and Dr. Wang speculated that, The concubine used to be hurt by musk, and it was all because of the charcoal fire. "But the charcoal fire in the past has been burnt to ashes. If you want to check again now, you can't find it out."
When Li Dequan took over, he speculated that it was also a common thing, but the concubines in the harem who were most easily manipulated and ignored were undoubtedly powder. Or other inconspicuous but commonly used things, but I didn't expect that it turned out to be charcoal fire.
"My servant has sent all the charcoal fires in Zhenshun Zhai to Kunning Palace." These are stolen goods, so naturally they have to be sent to the queen, so that there is a basis for investigation.
"This is too incredible." Qinrou murmured. Even Qinrou couldn't help but want to praise, "I don't know who thought of this method. It's so clever." There is no need to destroy the evidence yourself. As the charcoal is ignited, all the evidence will be lost.
How can ordinary people think of such a way to harm others? Qinrou sighed.
"I have heard that some people would start with the roof of a medicine house, but I never thought that someone would start with charcoal fire." Qinrou couldn't help but sigh with Kangxi. What great wisdom is this?
Li Dequan:……. Concubine Nala's reaction was also one of surprise, she was not angry at all, and she admired people's cleverness. Li Dequan looked at it, and the emperor's face turned dark.
"Okay, very good!" Kangxi also laughed angrily, "In my palace, there are really crouching tigers, hidden dragons, and talented people!"
This is true. , the opposite is true. It sounds weird, but it's not a good thing to say. Qinrou was silent, it was better not to make the emperor angry at this time.
The queen is very busy. Qinrou is clear.
Even if the queen is not busy, she will still act like she is busy.
Qinrou also agreed with Kangxi’s words. Sure enough, there are many heroes in the world, and there are talents everywhere.
All high-ranking families feel that their slaves are despicable, but they are not at all thoughtful. The master is stupid and weak, and there are many people who are manipulated by their slaves. The carpentry emperor Zhu Youxiao was the leader and topped the list.
Li Dequan looked at it, and the emperor and empress had the same reaction! How else can we say that the Queen is the ‘Queen’? Others are not so clever! Whatever the emperor has in mind, is what he has in mind.
"Li Dequan, you also cooperated with the queen to find out the person for me. I also want to see who is the master who is causing trouble in my Forbidden City." Kangxi said solemnly.
"Hey! I obey the order." Li Dequan replied seriously.
