Chapter 319 Life or Death

After seeing off Queen Wen, Shen Yuexi called Xia Lan to ask about the process of making the medicinal soup.

Xia Lan didn't know why Shen Yuexi asked this, and she replied truthfully: "Master, when you sent Princess Ping, the Empress ordered someone to give the medicine to the servant. The servant knew that it was the medicine given by the emperor, so she took care of it all the time. Didn't let anyone come near."

Shen Yuexi asked Xia Lan to step back, and sat there meditating.

She didn't have the slightest doubt about Xia Lan who was standing in front of the medicine cup the whole time.As the maid who has been serving her all the time, Xia Lan has a good chance to poison her, and it is impossible to hide until now.

Since there was no outsider's touch during the whole process, it meant that the medicine had already been poisoned before it entered Prince An's Mansion.

It is impossible for ordinary people to approach the queen's motorcade.Then it can be pushed back to the capital, that is, when the queen left the capital, the medicine had already been poisoned.To calculate more accurately, it should be tampered with when dispensing the medicine.

The trouble now is that it is not clear who the poisoner is. Although Xiao Beiheng is most suspected, he cannot be sure.

Still trying to figure out who the culprit of the poisoning was, her stomach gurgled twice, and she felt a strong sense of hunger in her stomach.

Shen Yuexi moved her hand up and rubbed it on her stomach twice.

That kind of stomach that is like a big iron block stuffed in it, constantly rebelling, making nausea... It's normal, and it's starting to cry hungry.

Surprised and delighted, she clicked her mouth and licked her upper teeth with her tongue.During the period of morning sickness, as long as she slightly stimulates the upper teeth, she will feel vomiting.

No matter how much I licked it, the nausea really disappeared.

"Xia Lan, I'm hungry," she called happily, standing up, "serve dinner."

Xia Lan came in after hearing the sound and said, "Master, the rice soup has been heating up on the stove. Let the slaves bring it in."

After the rice soup was served, everyone gathered around Shen Yuexi and watched carefully as before.Shen Yuexi first took a sip with a spoon, and found that there was nothing wrong with it, so she simply picked up the bowl and gulped it down, scaring Xia Lan and the others dumbfounded.

Shen Yuexi used to drink it in small spoonfuls, but now she took a big mouthful of it with a bowl in her hand.

"I'm fine, I won't vomit anymore," Shen Yuexi put the empty bowl back on the tray with a happy face, "Hurry up and serve the food, I want to eat."

The morning sickness that had been tormenting her for almost two months finally disappeared.Once her appetite was restored, she would be so hungry that she could eat up a whole roasted lamb.

Xia Lan said: "Master, just now the kitchen prepared lunch for the empress, the empress left without eating, so I will bring it to you?"

"Hurry up, I'm starving to death." Shen Yuexi urged.

She was in a hurry, and the servants rushed to serve the dishes. In a short time, [-] dishes were served, including frying, frying and frying. Chicken, duck, fish, seasonal vegetables, steaming and fragrant, filled an entire table.

Shen Yuexi looked at the table full of dishes, almost drooling.She first picked up a piece of green vegetable with her chopsticks and pretended to chew a few mouthfuls. At the same time, she warned herself in her heart: You are Princess An, you should look like a princess when you eat, you want to be gentle, you want to be a lady...

Damn it, the baby is hungry, urging mother to eat.

As soon as she put down the chopsticks, she got up and grabbed the whole Babao chicken and tore it apart.

Everyone was shocked when they saw her grabbing the chicken and stuffing it into her mouth.Xia Lan persuaded: "Master, eat slowly. I haven't eaten meat for so long, eating too much will hurt my stomach."

"I know... I have my own measure." Shen Yuexi slurred while stuffing the delicious chicken into her mouth.

Everyone at the scene was worried at first, fearing that Shen Yuexi would vomit again.After observing for a long time, seeing her wolfing down her food, she really returned to normal, and everyone was relieved.A maid said happily: "Unexpectedly, the master is really well."

Xia Lan said with a smile: "I have to say that the medicine given by His Majesty is effective, and you won't vomit after drinking it."

Shen Yuexi was holding a big chicken leg in each hand, and was eating fiercely with one bite from left to right, when she heard Xia Lan's words, her cheeks puffed up and she was stunned.

It was originally a bowl of highly poisonous medicine, and she asked Big Bear to extract all the toxins from the medicine before drinking the medicine soup.At that time, I just thought that it was a medicine bestowed by the emperor, so I couldn't drink it.But forgot an important point.

From the point of view of the poisoner, she had already drank the poison.At this time tomorrow, she must be poisoned and die.

When the time comes, should she "die" or "live"?
"King An is back, King An is back." A maid shouted beamingly into the living room.

Shen Yuexi quickly put down the chicken legs and called someone to bring a water basin to wash her hands.When she left the living room, people outside the gate shouted horses, and Xiao Zhuo hastily stepped into the gate.

After a long expedition, he was full of travel and dust.But wind, frost, rain and dew did not diminish his demeanor at all, he was still the handsome man who was as elegant as jade.

Shen Yuexi ran forward, opened her arms, and the two embraced tightly in the middle of the courtyard.

"Husband, you are back." Shen Yuexi wrapped her hands around Xiao Zhuo's neck, looked up at him, a tear rolled down her eyes accidentally, "Your wife has suffered a lot."

Xiao Zhuo put his big hand on the top of her head and rubbed it. Looking at her thin face, he said with a hint of distress: "I know. As soon as the battle is over, I will hand over the army to Qiu Liming, and I will rush back first."

Shen Yuexi shrank her neck, and leaned her face on Xiao Zhuo's chest with a sweet face.

She likes Xiao Zhuo's big hand touching the top of her head. Although it will mess up her hair, it is a kind of peace of mind and a sense of happiness that makes her feel safe.

The two hugged each other for a moment, Shen Yuexi let go of Xiao Zhuo contentedly, turned around and took his hand: "I'm not talking about morning sickness, it's another big thing... I happened to be eating, and we talked while eating."

Entering the hall, Xiao Zhuo went to take a shower and change clothes first, and Shen Yuexi asked the servants to retreat first.This matter is very important and cannot be discussed with Xiao Zhuo in front of everyone.

When the two were eating, Shen Yuexi and Xiao Zhuo talked about the poison.

When he heard that the anti-fetal medicine she drank was poisonous, Xiao Zhuo suddenly changed color, and with a "pop", the teacup in his hand was crushed to pieces.

Shen Yuexi rarely saw Xiao Zhuo's angry expression.This man has always been calm, and the more dangerous he is facing, the more calm he can remain.This time it was Xiao Zhuo's rare outburst of anger.

"Husband, don't get excited," Shen Yuexi comforted Xiao Zhuo, and picked up a silk handkerchief to wipe his tea-soaked clothes, "I asked the big bear to collect all the toxins, and I'm fine."

Xiao Zhuo took a deep breath, his face returned to calm, he picked up the fragments of the teacup one by one, and said slowly: "No matter who the poisoner is, the other party can't help but want to take action .”

Shen Yuexi also helped him pick up the pieces, and said: "I can't guess who the poisoner is. I think it may be Xiao Beiheng, after all, he is the only one who wants to compete with you for the crown prince."

Xiao Zhuo pondered for a moment, then shook his head lightly and said: "Not necessarily, there are many candidates for poisoning, and we can't make a conclusion rashly."

"My lord, what shall we do?"

Now that Xiao Zhuo has come back, let his clever mind think about this issue.She didn't have Xiao Zhuo's two brushes, and she had a headache if she thought about it too much.Besides, more nutrition should be given to the baby, she'd better not use her brain.

"You said the poison will take effect after twelve o'clock?" Xiao Zhuo asked.

Shen Yuexi nodded: "Yes, what's the matter?"

"Then we'll take advantage of the other party's wishes," Xiao Zhuo smiled slightly, "Since the other party takes you as the first target, they will definitely have another move."

"Husband means that I want to..." Shen Yuexi asked hesitantly.

Xiao Zhuo smiled and said, "Yes, that's what it means."
