Quick wear: when I get close to you

When the concubines in the harem heard that the emperor had been drugged, they hurried outside the palace.

Li Defu said: "Masters, please be patient. Your Majesty has nothing serious to do."

At this moment, they didn't know that the emperor was poisoned by a love potion, and they thought it was some kind of poison, so they were all panicking.

Ai Yayue said: "Eunuch Li, how is your majesty doing now? Will the poison hurt the dragon's body?"

Li Defu smiled and said: "Don't worry, little master, the imperial doctor is giving your majesty the acupuncture right now, so it won't hurt the dragon's body."

Ai Yayue sighed and said angrily: "Who is so bold and dares to drug His Majesty? He really should be cut into pieces after being caught."

As he spoke, he glanced at the crowd and asked doubtfully: "Where is Bai He? Why didn't Bai He come? Isn't it because he feels guilty and doesn't dare to come?"

Bo friend Ranran started to hiccup again. She couldn't help but hiccup when she was nervous. This was something she couldn't control. She said, "Don't spit on anyone! Bai He left the banquet early, how could he have the opportunity to poison?" ?”

"Maybe." Ai Yayue also reacted, but still said harshly.

Mo Mo was in the palace and didn't know what was happening outside. He just watched Zhongliyuan's breathing calm down after the imperial doctor pricked a few acupuncture points.

The imperial doctor said: "It has stabilized for the time being. Your Majesty, please don't have too many emotional ups and downs at this hour."

Zhongliyuan nodded.

The imperial doctor bowed and retreated.

Zhong Liyuan looked at Mo Mo: "Have you decided on the reason for leaving the harem?"

Mo Mo said in a deep voice: "It all depends on Your Majesty."

Zhong Liyuan smiled and said: "Then you might as well stay in the harem forever, so that I can still summon you openly."

Mo Mo lowered his head and said nothing.

Zhongliyuan felt bored and put on airs again, stood up and walked outside the palace, where all the concubines knelt down.

Zhong Liyuan said: "How brave you are to drug me in the palace."

The concubines below buried their heads and said, "I don't dare."

The imperial guards sent to search the harem came and said to Zhongliyuan: "Your Majesty, the general found this substance in the palace of Master Bai Hebai in the small courtyard by the lake. After testing by the imperial doctor, it was indeed the poison that poisoned your Majesty."

The man who reported it spread his hands, revealing the small porcelain bottle in his hand.

Everyone was shocked, and Mo Mo also guessed Zhong Liyuan's next plan, and felt a lot more at ease. As expected, as an emperor, he still had to keep his promises.

Zhong Liyuan said with a gloomy face: "Where is Bai He?"

For a while, everyone looked left and right but no one answered.

Qilin Ruixue stood up and saluted, and then said: "Your Majesty, Bai He went back because he felt unwell not long after the banquet started."

My friend Ranran also said: "My concubine can also testify. Bai He did not have time to commit the crime. Please keep your Majesty in mind."

Zhong Liyuan said in a deep voice: "I will definitely investigate this matter, but I have not seen her until now. It is true that she went back then, but no one knows what she did after she went back."

After Zhong Liyuan finished speaking, he said to Nan Cheng beside him: "Take people to find him. If you want to see him alive, you want to see his body."

Qilin Ruixue and her friend Ranran looked at each other and knelt down honestly. Now they have no evidence to prove that Bai He stayed in the hospital honestly and did nothing else after returning. On the contrary, there is still evidence that is very unfavorable to Bai He. , so all they can do now is wait for the results.

Mo Mo couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the two of them kneeling back. Fortunately, they calmed down. Zhong Liyuan had really put in a lot of effort to successfully exit the harem.

When Nan Cheng and others went to investigate, Xi Gong Lishu took a few steps forward, knelt in front of Zhong Liyuan and said, "I am guilty, I plead guilty."

Xi Gong Lishu paused. She could feel the anxiety of the Xi Gong ministers behind her. She couldn't help but laugh sarcastically in her heart. Zhong Liyuan specially left these ministers here just to let them watch this farce. In fact, the relationship between herself and Zhong Liyuan Can it be considered a cooperative relationship? I just hope that my future life in the cold palace will be less miserable.

She continued: "It's my concubine's medicine. I couldn't bear to see the sisters from the West Palace Kingdom staying alone in the empty boudoir every day, so I gave your majesty the medicine, thinking that after the banquet, one of them could take advantage of the opportunity. I went to serve His Majesty, but what I didn’t expect was that something big happened at today’s banquet, which made my plan come to nothing. This matter was all my idea, and I am willing to be punished.”

The people standing and the concubines kneeling looked very excited for a moment. It turns out that Your Majesty has been given a love potion?

Mo Mo thought inwardly: "What an outrageous reason. This damn weird and irrefutable feeling."

303 sighed: "She really went all out and dragged other people into the water along with it."

Mo Mo replied: "Perhaps this is her and Zhongliyuan's plan. Take this opportunity to eradicate them together. In the future, you will no longer have to think about going to the women's academy in Xigong Kingdom. No wonder Zhongliyuan was busy some time ago. I never summoned them when I favored the harem. It turned out to be to make them anxious and come to the door, so that Nisigong Lishu could drag them into the water naturally."

303 nodded and said: "That's right. The princesses of the West Palace Kingdom can be used by them. If they can't protect them, they also have some special tasks."

Mo Mo nodded and said, "Yes."

Zhong Liyuan glanced at the three trembling people and asked, "Then why is the medicine in Bai He's room?"

Xi Gong Lishu said loudly: "I know that there are many strange medicines in Aiya Kingdom, so I specifically asked Bai He for this medicine."

"So, she is also involved in your plan?" Zhongliyuan asked.

Just as Xigong Lishu was about to speak, Nan Cheng came over and said to Zhong Liyuan: "Your Majesty, I found Bai He's... body. A palace maid saw her committing suicide by jumping into the lake a quarter of an hour ago."

A quarter of an hour ago, the concubines had just learned that Zhong Liyuan had been poisoned.

Zhongliyuan said angrily: "What a dead man without evidence."

Zhong Liyuan looked at the envoy from the West Palace Kingdom and asked: "After all, they are all from your West Palace Kingdom. You happen to be here too, so I would like to ask you, how do you think I should deal with them?"

The envoy from the West Palace Kingdom had trembling legs and said in a trembling voice: "Since he is already a member of your majesty's harem, he should be punished according to your rules and laws."

Xi Gong Lishu sneered, she knew that after something happened, they would only abandon themselves as a pawn in order to survive alone.

At this time, the other three concubines of the West Palace Kingdom who were kneeling behind them knelt out and said: "Your Majesty, spare your life. Your Majesty, Concubine Rong only said that we should wait tonight. We had no idea that such a thing would happen." It happened, Your Majesty! Please spare your life!"

Zhong Liyuan sneered: "Concubine Rong, look at the kind of people you want to help. Do you think it's worth it to see them busy trying to distance themselves from each other?"

The envoys from the West Palace Kingdom always felt that these words meant something, and they all lowered their heads.

Zhong Liyuan continued: "It is impossible that only Concubine Rong and Bai He know what happened today. Who among the three of you is responsible for taking care of tonight?"

The three of them refused to admit it, and Zhong Liyuan had already expected it, so he continued: "Then the three of you are guilty of the same crime. Although Xi Gong Lishu is the mastermind, the three of you are the initiators. It is really abominable, and you should be the same guilty, but I will spare your life because of my relationship with Concubine Rong."

"Come here, concubine Shu will be thrown into the cold palace, retain the title of concubine, and take away the title; the rest..." Zhong Liyuan looked at the three people on the ground, and said ruthlessly: "Become slaves in Xin Zhe's library."

The envoys of the West Palace Kingdom did not dare to speak. This punishment was already a great honor to them. According to the rules of the Zhongli Kingdom, they should be executed.
