Quick Wear: My Wife Is Pregnant, The Childbirth System Holds Her Thigh

Chapter 24 The Absolute Tyrant × The Charming Desert Princess of the Fishing System 24

"Your Majesty, Xu Chongrong was poisoned during his meal today."

The secret guard knelt on the ground and spoke carefully, the sweat on his forehead flowing down uncontrollably.

Qi Yanli raised his head from the heavy court affairs, with a stern look in his eyes.

"Oh? Who discovered it?"

"It's Empress Xu herself"

Qi Yanli put down the pen in his hand and looked at the person kneeling on the ground coldly, as if looking at a useless object.

"She discovered it on her own, so what's the use of keeping you here?"

The secret guard quickly begged for mercy. He was indeed a little careless this time and didn't pay attention to his diet.

"Your Majesty, please spare my life. Please allow me to take the blame and perform meritorious service, and find out the person who poisoned me. I will then go and receive the punishment myself."

Qi Yanli looked at the secret guard who was kneeling on the ground begging for mercy.

"Go ahead. If it's not found out, you don't have to come back."

"Yes"

The secret guard once again hid in the dark, hurriedly exploring around, and exchanging information with the secret guards who were monitoring other concubines.

Qi Yanli sat quietly. This woman didn't take the initiative to come to him after being bullied. She was really stupid. If it were someone else, she would have come to him to complain.

He also ordered Eunuch Zhang on the side to beat the people in the imperial dining room.

"Yes"

Eunuch Zhang immediately carried out the instructions, thinking that although His Majesty was very tough-minded, he would still be soft-hearted.

Eunuch Zhang went to the imperial dining room in a big way. When the steward of the imperial dining room heard that Eunuch Zhang was coming, he immediately came out to greet him.

"What brought you, Eunuch Zhang, here? But what are your orders, Your Majesty?"

Eunuch Zhang looked up and down at Master Zhu. He was fat and oily. It seemed that there was indeed a lot of oil and water in the imperial kitchen. However, such an unconscious slave dared to make decisions privately. He really thought that his life was too long. .

"Your Majesty, we will use an extra dish of crystal meat tonight. Manager Zhu will instruct his men carefully and don't neglect it."

As soon as Manager Zhu heard the name of the familiar dish, he understood His Majesty's attitude. A layer of sweat broke out behind his back. He was afraid that his dirty hands and feet would do something again.

Eunuch Zhang didn't say anything directly, but simply stated his purpose, straightened his clothes and left.

Manager Zhu stretched out his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead. The expression on his face was very unhappy, but he did not expect that the hands of his subordinates were really unclean. Then he thought of the two gold leaves in his bedroom.

Now he feels very guilty. The concubine Shu specially rewarded him, but now it seems that it is not an easy job. His Majesty has noticed it, and the group of guys under his command are like rats that smell the smell.

He is accustomed to flattering others and suppressing others. He does not deny that he is a greedy person, but he does not want his subordinates to hide anything.

"Gather all the people in the dining room to me. I want to see which Buddha dares to step on the queen's head."

His voice was filled with anger and sternness. He had lived in this palace for a long time and he had his own set of techniques. His Majesty actually came to beat him personally. It seemed to show that Xu Chongrong still had a status in His Majesty's heart.

A group of young eunuchs were immediately summoned and lined up neatly in two teams. Manager Zhu ignored the people who were full of doubts.

He spoke directly and coldly:

"Show me the things that were delivered to Yaohua Palace today."

The little eunuchs looked at each other, you looked at me, I looked at you, most of them had a guilty conscience in their eyes.

The masters in each palace have their own special abilities. At least half of the slaves in the imperial kitchen have been bribed.

The oil and water came down layer by layer, and what finally reached the empress' hands were the two plates of green vegetables. Although Xu Wanyu didn't say much, she was a very vengeful master. These eunuchs were just pawns bought with the emperor's acquiescence and the concubines' bribes.

There is nothing to be angry about. Xu Wanyu is actually an emotionally stable person. Except for acting when necessary, she is always lazy at other times.

Two plates of green vegetables were presented. There is no gratification at all, and it can even be called shabby. Even the lowly eunuchs in the palace would not be able to eat the dishes.

A few scattered vegetable leaves were not even fresh. They were probably just boiled in water and put on the plate.

When Manager Zhu saw these two dishes, he felt that his head was in danger. If this kind of dish was served in the past two days, and Empress Xu gained His Majesty's favor in the future, he might be dead.

He grabbed the plate in his hand and threw it towards the group of young eunuchs. He hit one of the eunuchs hard on the forehead, causing a gash in his forehead.

But the little eunuch didn't dare to beg for mercy and could only let the blood flow from his head to his clothes. The other little eunuchs also stood there tremblingly.

"You are so brave. A group of slaves dare to ride on the master's head and bully the master. I think you are all tired of living. My royal dining room is always in demand. I don't know how many slaves want to come to me. Since your hands are not clean when it comes to the work in the imperial kitchen, just replace it with a new group of people."

A group of young eunuchs immediately knelt on the ground and begged for mercy. The waiters in the imperial kitchen were indeed the most profitable place in the palace besides the Ministry of Internal Affairs. None of them wanted to lose such a good thing, but they couldn't shake the decision.

Manager Zhu directly asked people to push back the group of eunuchs. After asking the Ministry of Internal Affairs to allocate a new group of people, he also ordered the chef to make several dishes for the royal family, quietly put them into food boxes, and went to Yaohua Palace to deliver the dishes in person.

The weather is always hot and cold for some reason lately. The corners of Xu Wanyu's mouth were swollen again because of a certain man's behavior.

He didn't want to eat anymore, so he just sat quietly in front of the window of his palace, leaning his head and looking at the trees outside the window.

The life in the palace was really boring, and now that she was successfully pregnant with the child, Xu Wanyu could actually run away directly.

After all, there was nothing in this palace that attracted him, and the emperor was also a proud and arrogant person. Xu Wanyu never liked to wrong herself. If it weren't for the rewards given by the world, she would not have taken on such a task at all.

"Aoao, do you want to go out of the palace to play?"

Aoao, who was in a daze next to him, immediately became excited and circled around Xu Wanyu excitedly, saying happily:

"Think and think! Host, how about we go out and play? This palace is so boring! It's not fun at all. Master God lied to me. He said that the palace is fun. This world I just chose is not fun at all. It’s fun, but it’s so boring!”

Aoao, the whole little ball of light seemed to come alive, chattering in Xu Wanyu's ears.

Xu Wanyu was thinking about when to run out of the palace. After all, the emperor was just the seed she used to complete her mission.

As long as you cultivate the next child of destiny in the world and complete everything smoothly, you will be fine.
