Shen Meizhuang and Zhen Huan looked at each other, as if asking each other: Do you want to save her or not?

At this moment, Prince Guo had already carried Meng Jingxian into the back hall, his face full of anxiety, and he kept calling out:

"Jingxian, hold on, everything will be fine! I'm always here with you, don't be afraid!"

Huanbi followed closely behind and entered the back hall together.

She watched Meng Jingxian's face twisted in pain and Prince Guo's anxious look, and a trace of hatred surged in her heart.

The original worries were gradually replaced by jealousy. A woman's jealousy is really terrible.

She prayed silently that Meng Jingxian would die, so that no one could threaten her position in the palace.

Wen Shichu hurried to the back hall, quickly felt Meng Jingxian's pulse, and said solemnly:

"Your Majesty, Concubine Xian was poisoned by the red-crowned crane, but fortunately the dosage was insufficient and Concubine Xian is almost full-term. We only need to let her take the medicine to accelerate labor, and the child still has a chance of survival. Please forgive me, Your Majesty. I can only do my best."

As he said that, he turned to Wei Lin and said, "Go and report to the emperor immediately."

Wei Lin went to the front hall to report, while Wen Shichu stayed in the back hall to induce labor for Meng Jingxian.

Several imperial doctors checked all the food and found that only Zhen Huan's bowl of soup was poisonous, while the others were not.

Zhen Huan turned pale immediately, and she said with lingering fear:

"Your Majesty, someone wants to kill me and Hongzhou, and that's why Xianfujin has been implicated."

The emperor said angrily:

"How did this poison end up in Concubine Xi's bowl when such a dirty thing was done right under my nose?"

Shen Meimei held Zhen Huan's hand and comforted her:

"Huan'er, I think it was the one in Jingren Palace who did it. It's a pity that Concubine Xian was implicated. If you want to detoxify, I have a way!"

Zhen Huan held Shen Meimei's hand tightly and whispered:

"Sister, don't do it! Life and death are decided by God. Why go against God?"

When Shen Meimei heard Zhen Huan say this, her heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Zhen Huan herself had poisoned the place and then put the blame on Jingren Palace?

If this is true, Zhen Huan's scheming is too terrifying, even a time traveler may not be able to defeat her.

And why did Zhen Huan want Meng Jingxian to die?

Before Shen Meimei had time to think about it, she saw Su Peisheng bringing Jianqiu in.

He saluted the emperor and said:

"Reporting to the Emperor, I have found out that the soups after meals are prepared by the Imperial Kitchen and delivered to us by the palace servants.

The palace maid who delivered the soup to Concubine Xi said that she only met Jianqiu from Jingren Palace halfway, and Jianqiu also opened the lid of the food box and asked what was inside. There was no one else there.

"I have brought Jianqiu here, please make your decision, Your Majesty!"

When the emperor saw Jianqiu, his expression suddenly changed and he sneered:

"Good, very good! You are so brave. Who ordered you to do that?"

Jianqiu raised her head and stared at Zhen Huan, then looked at Shen Meimei. She sneered:

"Today I finally understand what happened. Your Majesty, I did not poison. You can always find excuses to accuse me. I just asked about the soup on the way, and I did open the lid, but I definitely did not poison it.

This is probably just the thief crying "Catch the thief" and deliberately putting the blame on me! What's more, the queen is still under house arrest, and I just went to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to get some daily necessities."

Ye Lanyi, who had been silent, stood up and came to Jianqiu. She smiled and said:

"Your Majesty, to find out whether Jianqiu poisoned someone, why not just search her directly? If you find nothing, maybe she wasn't the one who poisoned her? If you find something, it won't be considered an injustice to her!"
