I was not sure at first, but when I saw the queen's anxious and hungry look, I became more certain.

"Your Majesty, please understand. I really know nothing." Fortunately, she had built up her emotions outside the door just now. As she spoke, Nian Shilan's tears began to fall.

Not to mention that there is no evidence that Nian Shilan did it, and given her tearful look, the emperor really couldn't bear to pursue the matter.

"Okay, Queen, now that things are like this, what's the point of you blaming Shilan blindly? Are you suspecting that Concubine Hua did something?"

The emperor angrily told the queen what she had guessed. The queen was very happy and thought, could it be that the emperor also wanted to be hungry? Then she would definitely win this time.

"Your Majesty is also..."

Before she could finish her words, the emperor interrupted her: "Impossible, absolutely impossible, Shilan would never do such a thing, Queen, I hope you don't think so."

At this moment, it was fortunate that the Queen did not say anything, otherwise she would have almost lost more than she gained. If she had made the Emperor angry again, it would have been a loss.

"Yes, I understand, but this matter is really strange. Besides, this banquet was organized by Concubine Hua. But this kind of situation never happened when my sister was alive."

It's no use mentioning it myself, so I might as well mention my sister. In the emperor's heart, nothing can compare to his sister.

Concubine Hua was also tired of the Queen's little tricks. Isn't it just that she loved to praise Queen Chun Yuan? It used to be useful in the past, but it may not be so now.

"Queen, I know that Chunyuan is your sister, and I also know that you often miss her. Chunyuan is kind-hearted. After all, you are different from Chunyuan. If Chunyuan were still alive, in a situation like today, Chunyuan would not question Shilan without knowing the truth!"

As he spoke, the emperor began to recall some memories of Queen Chunyuan.

But the queen didn't know since when it started that mentioning her sister was no longer useful, and sometimes it might even backfire.

However, since the emperor said so, the queen thought it would be better not to say anything, so as to avoid any further mistakes.

"Your Majesty, please don't blame the Empress. She is also concerned about the sisters in the harem. It doesn't matter if it's me. If it weren't for me, I believe Your Majesty would definitely be able to clear my name. But Your Majesty must not implicate the Empress because of this matter."

Nian Shilan was acting coquettishly beside the emperor and talking, and even the queen couldn't stand it anymore.

I remember that when Shilan first entered the palace two years ago, his personality was not like this. How come he has changed so much over the years?

Come to think of it, Nian Shilan has been reborn for a long time, so she must have extracted the essence for her own use. Isn't this retreat in order to advance a trick that is useful to Zhen Huan? It's really useful, and even the Queen can't resist it now.

The emperor didn't say anything, he just hugged Nian Shilan tighter. Comparing Nian Shilan with the queen, Nian Shilan was definitely more obedient and well-behaved, while the queen was too domineering.

"Your Majesty, the young lady has taken something cold in nature, which is why she has constant abdominal pain. I have already prescribed some Qi-boosting and body-warming medicine for her. She will be fine after a few days of recuperation."

Jiang Cheng reported to the side. Xin Changzai knew that Jiang Cheng was Hua Fei's man, so when she felt uncomfortable at the beginning, she called Jiang Cheng over. If she had called someone else, she would have been worried.

"Cold? Why would Concubine Xin take something cold?"

Nian Shilan asked hurriedly, not wanting any of her people to get hurt.

Now let's see what kind of things can have such great power. I don't know if Jiang Cheng can find out.

Jiang Cheng did not answer immediately, but thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, all the ladies in the palace are suffering from abdominal pain. To be honest, this is undoubtedly related to the palace banquet. I don't know if there is something wrong with the food at the palace banquet. I need to check with the imperial doctors one by one."

"Investigate! Investigate for me! I want to see what kind of filthy things have spread into the palace!"

After the emperor said this, the queen's expression immediately turned unhappy.

"Your Majesty, rest your anger."

It was said that the emperor calmed down, but how could he calm down after something like this happened? The emperor didn't say anything and went back to the Yangxin Palace to wait for news.

The emperor left, and the queen left soon after. However, Nian Shilan stayed with Xin Chang for a while longer. She could help take care of Xuan Shu. After all, with Xin Chang in her current condition, Xuan Shu couldn't be left without someone to take care of him.

But I just can't understand why Xuanshu and Xinchang are sitting at the same table, but Xuanshu is fine.

"Nurse, is there any difference between what the princess and Xin Chang are eating at the family dinner?"

Nian Shilan always felt that there was something fishy about this matter, so she started questioning again.

The nurse thought for a while but couldn't think of anything. But there was nothing unusual: "The princess and Xin Changzai eat the same food, and Xin Changzai tests it in her mouth before feeding it to the princess."

The two of them thought about it and couldn't figure out what was wrong, but at this moment they thought of a crucial piece of information.

"Your Majesty, I remember that for a while, the Emperor was holding the princess and gave her a piece of cake. Could it be..." Songzhi also expressed her guess.

After Songzhi said this, the nurse suddenly remembered and said, "Yes, Madam! The princess has definitely never eaten cakes at Xinchang's ear table."

By now, Nian Shilan probably already had the answer in her mind. Could it be that there really was something wrong with the pastries?

"Which palace does this cake come from?"

Sometimes when the imperial kitchen is too busy to handle the palace banquets, it is possible that the concubines in the harem will help out. Not all of them may come from the imperial kitchen. If they come from the palace, it will be easy to find them. But if they come from the imperial kitchen, I wonder which unlucky person will be blamed again.

"I don't know about this servant."

The wet nurse was right. I was only responsible for taking care of the princess and the prince in this palace. There were some things that I should not ask about.

Nian Shilan had a rough idea in her mind: "Take good care of the princess." After saying that, Nian Shilan left, but decided to go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

"Yes, I send you off, Your Majesty."

Huang Guiquan didn't know what was going on at this moment. He just saw Nian Shilan coming over angrily. He didn't know what was going on, so he hurried to meet her at the door.

"Your servant pays respects to the Empress Hua. I don't know why the Empress Hua is here at this time. If you have anything to say, please tell me. There is really no need to come in person."

Huang Guiquan hurriedly spoke at the door. In fact, it would be fine for Huang Guiquan to go to Yikun Palace, but he was afraid that Nian Shilan would come to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to scold him in person, and he would inevitably lose face in the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
