"Take a good look to see if this sachet has been opened by anyone. If you see anything, say anything! If you dare to hide it, you will be beaten to death with sticks immediately!"

The three embroiderers stood quietly in front of the palace, listening to the Queen Mother's words, and said in unison: "Yes, I obey your orders." Although they didn't know what happened, this kind of battle was unprecedented, and they became more cautious. , and dare not put any thought into it.

The sachets were carefully looked at by each of the embroiderers, wishing they could poke holes in the sachets. Although Su Yuxin lowered her eyes, she glanced at the embroiderers' hands from time to time.

Concubine Lan stood a few steps in front of Suning'an. Concubine Lan's face was calm. Although Su Ning'an was confident that this matter could not be done in front of so many people, her eyes still fell on Concubine Lan.

If Concubine Lan was an accident last time, what about this time?

If it was a coincidence, I wouldn't believe it even to death.

After carefully reviewing the interaction between him and Concubine Lan after entering the palace, he frowned slightly, and the thought that had been ignored suddenly appeared.

The meticulously maintained nails were pressed tightly into the fingertips. The slight pain in the fingertips made Suningan calm down and did not show any discoloration on her face. But he still couldn't help but glance at Shen Yanzui, only to find that Shen Yanzui was also looking at her with his brows slightly furrowed.

His heart skipped a beat, and he glanced at Concubine Lan without realizing it. The emperor probably didn't know, otherwise, with his character, how could Concubine Lan be alive today?

But if she says it without any evidence, she will be easily bitten...

Su Ning'an breathed out slowly, and finally calmed down the restlessness in her heart, but heard the embroiderer say: "Report to the Emperor, the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother, the slaves have carefully inspected this sachet. It was originally sewn on all sides. Now It has indeed been dismantled, although only in a few places, and the original eye of the needle is different from the current needle."

As she spoke, the embroiderer held the thread less than a knuckle long in her hand and said, "This thread was discovered by this slave just now. The original thread was not completely removed when the sachet was opened."

The Queen Mother looked at the piece of thread that Nanny Ying held up, her brows seemed to be frosty.

"But this sachet has been handled by so many people, I don't know how to check it."

The emperor glanced at Concubine De and said coolly: "What's the problem? Just search the palace!"

When Su Ning'an heard the word "search for the palace", she suddenly tightened her hand on the handkerchief, but almost at the same time, she saw Concubine Lan's body swaying, but Yucai Ren was sitting there steadily, and she was gone. The uneasiness just now.

"Search the palace? But whose palace should be searched?" The queen shook her head, "You can't search everyone who handles it. If the previous dynasty finds out about such a big battle, I'm afraid there will be criticism again."

Shen Yanzhui smiled coldly, "The queen is still too cautious, and she has already made such a fuss. If she keeps quiet, she will easily attract criticism." Then he glanced at everyone, "There are only a few people who handle this sachet, so... It’s not a big deal!”

"Concubine Lan's Yilan Palace, Le Jieyu's Ningcui Palace, Zhao Jieyu's Tangli Palace, Yucai Ren's Chunlan Garden, search them all for me!" He said and patted the armrest heavily, "Anli, It is said that Gu Yu'an enters the palace and takes the royal guards with him, not even a spider thread can be let go!"

Anli listened and hurriedly went to do it. The atmosphere in the palace was like an ice cellar for a while.

Su Ning'an's heart beat wildly, and she even lowered her eyelids, not daring to look at Ana Shen again.

Shen Yanzhu raised his eyes and looked at the concubines who were standing silently in the palace with a smile, and then looked at the Queen Mother who didn't even move her eyebrows.

For a moment, there was a deathlike silence in the main hall of Chunlan Garden, with only the sound of the emperor gently fidgeting with the teacup ringing from time to time.

His eyes fell on Suning'an's standing upright body again, and he said casually: "Okay, everyone, sit down, the search of the palace is not that fast."

······

The masters have not returned after paying their respects. The maid sent to inquire about the news only found out that Dao Yucai had almost miscarried. All the masters were invited to Chunlan Garden, and most of them could not find out anything.

Before they could figure out what was going on, they saw Master Gu barging in with the royal guards.

"Bold, do you know..."

Gu Yu'an raised his eyebrows coldly. No matter how prestigious and dignified the chambermaid or nun in the palace was, they were not worth mentioning in front of Gu Yu'an!

He quickly showed his token and said coldly: "According to the emperor's decree, you are all listed in the courtyard. Anyone who disobeys will be dealt with according to the palace regulations!"

Gu Yu'an always had a murderous aura about him. The people serving in the palace had never seen such a terrifying person before. None of them dared to resist. They stood in the courtyard with their heads lowered, and they lost the momentum they had just now.

Now he is no longer worried about his master, but worried about himself.

Such a battle must be no small matter. If anything is found out, not only will the master suffer, but they will also lose their lives. It was a blessing to be demoted to the lowest palace servant.

Everyone listened uneasily as boxes and cabinets were being rummaged through the various palaces, and the sound of things falling could be heard from time to time. They could only pray in their hearts that their masters would be fine, and that they would be fine too.

Some people in the main hall of Chunlan Garden were gradually losing their composure. Concubine Lan's face was also a little pale, and things were not much better outside the main hall.

Especially Yucai Ren's bedroom, because of the emperor's oral instructions, those in the palace wanted to stop it but couldn't.

Soon, An Li held a palm-sized brocade box and presented it to Shen Yanzhui.

"Your Majesty, this servant found this in Concubine Lan's palace. It has been confirmed by Dr. Han that it is the same as the contents in the sachet. It is earth gall."

Concubine Lan listened and knelt down with a "pop" sound, "Your Majesty, I am unjustly accused. I have been wronged. How have I ever had such thoughts after following you for so many years? Your Majesty!"

Shen Yanzhui stared at Concubine Lan coldly, raised his hand and knocked over the brocade box in Anli's hand, and the remaining medicinal materials just rolled to Concubine Lan's feet, "Now that you are still complaining, if you hadn't put these things away Yes, why are they in your palace? Could it be that you want to say that Zhao Jieyu framed me!"

"Not to mention that you have been in the palace for many years, Zhao Jieyu has just entered the palace not long ago. In terms of connections and contacts, nothing can compare to you!" Shen Yanzui strode over, grabbed the back of Concubine Lan's neck, and pinched her hard. Concubine Lan fell to the ground.

Suningan frowned slightly at this moment, his face was pale, and he looked very uneasy, as if he was really afraid that he would be slandered by Concubine Lan as the emperor said. Then he looked at the arm that was blocking his body intentionally or unintentionally, and then at the emperor who looked cold and unspeakably angry, and his heart swayed.

The Queen Mother also turned pale with anger, "Bitch! You actually want to harm the Ai family's grandson!" She slammed the table five or six times in anger, "It's a shame that the Ai family still thinks that if a princess is born, it will be up to you. Raise! You, you are simply..."

"Queen Mother, Queen Mother, don't be angry, it's not worth getting so angry!" Aunt Ying looked at the Queen Mother gasping for air and hurriedly moved her chest.

"Mother, it's already clear that this matter was all done by Concubine Lan. It's better to leave this matter to the Emperor and his ministers, so as not to hurt the Queen Mother." The Queen was very angry when she saw the Queen Mother, and was only worried if the Queen Mother continued to keep her. , I am afraid that I really need Dr. Han to make a careful diagnosis and treatment, so he said.

"That's fine! That's fine!" The Queen Mother punched the table several times angrily, "Your Majesty, this vicious woman must be severely punished!"

"Yes!" Ana Shen raised his hands and watched as Nanny Ying helped the Queen Mother out of Chunlan Garden. However, she did not look at Concubine Lan. Instead, she took Su Ning'an's hand and hugged her into her arms. The words in his palms The ball was extremely cold.

"Are you scared?" Su Ning'an pursed her lips, her heart still beating heavily, but her mind was not on Concubine Lan at all. She shook her head and nodded again.

Seeing her like this, Shen Yanzhu felt even more distressed, "I know it's not you, and it can't be you." After saying that, he hugged Su Ning'an tightly again, and looked at Concubine Lan begging and trying to grab the corner of his clothes, and took advantage of the situation. Kicked away, "Concubine Lan was demoted to a commoner and thrown into the cold palace!"

Su Ning'an huddled in Shen Yanzui's arms unconsciously, but she was staring straight at Concubine Lan on the ground. If he knew, she would be like Concubine Lan, right?

Thinking like this, she wanted to leave his arms, but she felt his arms retract and she was tightly tied to his arms again.

Concubine Lan's usually dignified hair had become messy due to her constant prayers. She was dragged down, shouting: "Please, Your Majesty, please forgive me this time! Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

Shen Yanzhu's arm around Suning'an never relaxed, and his eyes were coldly on Le Jieyu, and he said: "There is no place for these dirty things in my harem! Put your thoughts away as soon as possible! If you don't want to implicate your tribe, Everyone, please calm down!"

Everyone, including Su Yuxin, hurriedly knelt down. Su Ningan was also about to kneel down, but he grabbed his waist and couldn't move.

Hearing all the concubines say in unison: "I don't dare."

At this moment, Su Ning'an felt bored and heavy in her heart.

The sachet incident ended in an unexpected way. Some were surprised, some were regretful, and some were happy to watch the show.

But from beginning to end, Zhao Jieyu and Le Jieyu, who had always been close, had almost no communication throughout the whole process, which made many people gloat over their misfortune.

"Your Majesty, I forgive you. I didn't present this thing to you immediately. I am willing to accept the punishment."

Shen Yanzhui looked at the three things in front of him. A piece of hair tied with a red rope was falling on a jade pendant, which came from Concubine Lan.

One was a very small amount of Lingxiao flowers dyed roughly the same color as hibiscus flowers, not long after Han Xiaofan presented them.

One is a pack of hyssop and an unfinished sachet from Tangli Palace!
