Chapter 51 Incense
The palace, in the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Shen Jinyu and Song Yao waited for a long time before Lu Tao stepped in with a sad face. Behind him, Li Mingde brought in a court lady. Song Yao called the emperor, but Lu Tao didn't respond. He went straight to the dragon chair behind the desk Sit up, wave your hand,
"Sit down, two lovers."

The two sat down, Shen Jinyu glanced at the maid, the two eunuchs who were holding her loosened their hands, and the maid knelt on the ground with a plop, her face was still wet from tears.

"Ban Yue, you are the maid next to the imperial concubine, tell me, what happened today?!" Lu Tao restrained his usual gentleness, and Shen Jinyu saw a bit of the majesty of an emperor on that face for the first time.

"Yes, Your Majesty. Today, the imperial concubine and empress saw that the weather was very good. She thought that there should be a lot of flowers blooming in the imperial garden, so she wanted to go to the imperial garden to enjoy the flowers and enjoy the sun. Everything was fine, and the empress is still here. The Royal Garden met Concubine Wang Shu. Seeing that the jade Linglong that the concubine empress liked was blooming brightly, she picked one and gave it to the empress. As soon as the empress took the jade Linglong and smelled it, she suddenly said that her stomach hurts. I jumped, and hurriedly called the imperial physician, but I didn't expect it to be so serious!" The maid Ban Yue said, and cried again.

"Stomach hurts after smelling a flower?" Lu Tao obviously didn't believe it, "Where is the imperial doctor, get out of here!"

As soon as the words fell, the white-bearded doctor who treated Li Huanwu today really rolled in with trembling hands and feet, and he fell to his knees with a plop as soon as he came in. It is a big deal for the imperial concubine and empress to die twice. If he made a slight mistake It is estimated that the head will not be guaranteed, and the nervous beard is trembling at this moment.

Lu Tao: "Physician Sun, tell me, what is the reason for Li Guifei's miscarriage and death?"

"Back to the emperor, when I arrived today, the imperial concubine was suffering from severe abdominal pain. I checked the pulse condition and found that the imperial concubine's pulse was disordered, and the pulse beat was extremely strong. She was poisoned. The poison was too strong, but it took only half a stick of incense. Before I could find out what the poison is, the imperial concubine..." At the end of the speech, Taiji Sun bent down in fear and put his head between his hands.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Lu Tao became furious. He picked up the inkstone in front of him and threw it at Taiyi Sun's feet, "Trash! What did I raise you here for? I don't even know about this stuff!"

"Your Majesty, forgive me!" Doctor Sun's head was almost stuffed under the marble floor.

"The emperor calms down. Since Imperial Physician Sun said that the imperial concubine is suffering from poisoning, do you have any thoughts about this poison now? For half a month, you have been responsible for the daily life of the empress. Since the empress was pregnant, did something wrong happen? "Song Yao raised a question, and after Lu Tao got emotional, he was a little confused.

"Master Hui Song, after the empress was pregnant with a dragon heir, the emperor specifically told her to be more cautious with tea and food, so the servants and servants are all watching the things used by the empress, there is nothing wrong with it!" Ban Yue cried.

Song Yao: "How about you, Doctor Sun?"

Imperial Physician Sun: "This poison is violent, and the veteran pulse examiners in the past few months have not noticed it at all. I have never seen this kind of poison before!"

"There was nothing wrong with the pulse diagnosis in the past few months?" Shen Jinyu, who had been silent all this time, spoke.

Imperial Physician Sun: "Not at all, the empress's pulse condition has been very stable."

Lu Tao: "Li Mingde, send someone to review all the eunuchs and maids who are in charge of all affairs in Concubine Li's bedroom and their wards. I don't believe it's not bad at all!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Li Mingde took the order and hurried down.

Shen Jinyu thought for a moment, and said, "Your Majesty, according to what I see, you can take someone to search the imperial concubine's bedroom."

"Okay, Jinyu, you will be in charge."

"The minister is a foreign minister, and investigating the case is not within the scope of the minister's responsibility. I'm afraid I will be criticized by the minister." Shen Jinyu was a little worried, not because he was afraid of criticism from others, but because he was afraid that those rigid old men would start chanting scriptures again. He listened It's a real headache.

"Don't worry, there is nothing wrong with what I allow." Lu Tao waved his hand, "Ban Yue, you take Mr. Shen and ten guards, and whoever dares to speak too much will arrest him in front of me."

Shen Jinyu didn't say much, got up and saluted before leaving. Song Yao went to the imperial medical office and brought the oldest and most experienced old imperial doctors and a pile of medical books, and locked them in the Hall of Mental Cultivation until the case was found out. The poison is what it is.

A group of guards were already standing at the door of Li Huanwu's bedroom, watching. Seeing Shen Jinyu approaching, he wanted to reach out to stop him, but the guard behind Shen Jinyu reminded him, "Your Majesty personally instructed Master Shen to come and investigate, and you must not stop him."

The person who spoke was a small captain of the palace guards. Those who stood guard at the gate recognized him, and they dared not stop him when he said this, so they stepped aside respectfully, "Master Shen, please!"

Shen Jinyu strode in, and Ban Yue trotted behind to keep up.

Lu Tao had issued an order that no one was allowed to touch the things in Li Huanwu's bedroom, so all the furnishings inside were still the same as before, and there was still a strong smell of blood in the inner hall. Shen Jinyu frowned and looked at each of them one by one. past.

After Li Huanwu became pregnant with a dragon heir, Lu Tao rewarded her with a lot of things. The inner hall was decorated very luxuriously and treated like a royal concubine.

"Come and search one by one," Shen Jinyu said coldly, and immediately a few guards obeyed the order and started to move.

Shen Jinyu went to the dressing table and looked through it. The make-up dowry made of mahogany inlaid with crystal stones was full of rouge and gouache, and gold hairpin earrings, all of which were the same. There were still wisps of white smoke from the purple and gold animal head incense burner on the side. The sweet fragrance spreads from the inside, which is a taste that women like very much.

All the way to Li Huanwu's bed, Shen Jinyu didn't see anything wrong, but the fragrance inside seemed a little different from the outside.He leaned closer and smelled it, and there was an aroma different from the censer outside the strong smell of blood. The censer on the dressing table was filled with light and sweet incense, but the one here was a bit like but not sandalwood. , sniffed it carefully, after inhaling it into the lungs, there was an inexplicable feeling of peace of mind.

"Is the incense in the inner and outer rooms of the imperial concubine different?" Shen Jinyu asked.

"Yes," Banyue replied from the side, "After the imperial concubine was pregnant with the dragon's heir, she heard that this osmanthus sandalwood has the effect of calming the fetus and calming the mind, so she changed the incense on the side of the bed."

"Osmanthus sandalwood," Shen Jinyu thought for a while, "then why didn't you change the incense outside together?"

Ban Yue: "The incense outside has been smoked by the empress all the time, and the empress likes that incense the most, so she didn't change it."

Shen Jinyu concentrated for a moment, "Come here, pack up the leftover incense in this incense burner."
