Chapter 37 Poisoning
Just after taking the medicine, Yiman really lost his appetite, so he put down the jade bowl.

Hearing the sound of leaving one after another outside, Yiman got up and stood aside waiting for the queen.

After a while, the queen saw Yiman who was waiting for her with his head slightly lowered, "Manman, have you had breakfast?"

Yiman smiled lightly and shook his head, "I want to wait for my mother to use it together."

The queen frowned slightly, complaining, "It's all my fault that Concubine De is asking everyone's questions today, alas."

Yiman and Aunt Gao looked at each other, and Aunt Gao smiled, "The eldest princess must have been waiting for a long time. Please come and have dinner with the eldest princess."

"Empress mother forgot, Manman come here quickly. I have prepared assorted dishes today."

With that said, the queen dragged Yiman to the side hall for dinner.

During the meal, he kept complaining about the concubines in the palace, big and small, who were unhappy.Before leaving, Yiman was stopped by Grandma Gao.

"Princess--"

Yiman turned his head and looked at the embarrassing Nanny Gao.

"The princess and the empress have been together for a long time, and I should have noticed it. If you say something disrespectful, the empress is always a little bit. She is not deeply involved in the world. I will trouble the princess for the future."

From the conversation during the dinner, it was obvious that the queen was not a bad person, but she did not have the qualifications to be a queen at all.He is hesitant to deal with outsiders, but he will let down his guard when dealing with people close to him and speak freely, just like a girl.

I don't know if it's the emperor or Madam Gao of the Fu family who protected her too well, or whether she is too good at acting.After entering the palace for two generations of emperors and accompanying the emperor for more than [-] years, it is really strange that he can still sit on the phoenix chair properly.Could it be that he can withstand hardships and can't afford wealth?

Yiman smiled slightly, "Don't worry mammy, since I promised, I won't break my promise. It's just that the queen mother has to trouble mammy a lot."

Grandma Gao breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this. Since the emperor succeeded to the throne and the harem court was peaceful, the queen's behavior has become more and more relaxed.Fortunately, the eldest princess is back, so she will definitely be able to help, so that the prince will have no worries in the court, and as long as the queen becomes the queen mother, he will be relieved.

"This is natural. Princess, don't worry."

Yiman nodded with a faint smile, turned around and left Qingning Palace.

As soon as he left the Qingning Palace, he saw a shadow jumping out from the side, and before he could see it clearly, he heard a voice saying hello.

"I, my concubine, meet the eldest princess."

Seeing the warm pink figure in front of her bowing down, Han Zhi immediately stepped forward and lowered her voice, "Princess, she is Xue Meiren, the mother of twelve princesses."

Yiman nodded with a faint smile, and gave her a little support, "Mei Xue, don't need to be too polite."

Xue Meiren immediately stood up with a smile, and stepped forward to hold Yiman, but Yiman helped her wrist, and then withdrew her hand.Xue Meiren was not embarrassed, and immediately smiled and said, "The princess has won the title, she is a first-rank princess, and the concubine is just a small beauty, so she should bid farewell."

Such a sudden flash must have been prepared and blocked here.

"I don't know what's the matter with Xue Meiren?"

"Hey, what can be the matter? I was going back to the palace. Didn't we just meet each other? The twelfth princess wants to play with the eldest princess. I am thinking of going to the Qingsi Palace to meet the eldest princess. .”

Yiman naturally understands the meaning of Xue Meiren's closeness. Since the canonization, everyone who was still waiting and watching has fawned. Han Zhi has blocked many people who came to get close, but still can't stop many gifts, which flow in like water. Qing Si Dian, but Han Zhi and the others had to deal with these, so Yi Man didn't put too much thought into it.

This beauty Xue is quick-witted and knows that she will come out at this time.

Yiman smiled slightly, "I have been away from the palace since I was a child, and I am not familiar with the brothers and sisters in the palace. If I have free time, I naturally want to meet my sisters."

"The eldest princess said——"

Just as they were speaking, everyone turned their eyes and saw the original Guo Jieyu, and now Guo Cairen was passing by from a distance with the palace servants behind him slightly lowering their heads.

Xue Meiren rolled her eyes and glanced at it with disdain, "It's not at peace to become a talented person now, and I have to chase after him to dislike him."

With a curious look on his face, "What are you talking about, beauty?"

"Eldest princess doesn't know yet. Since Guo Cairen was convicted and demoted, he often visits the concubine de concubine. The concubine sees that she doesn't pay attention to the empress at all."

Yiman bowed his head and smiled slightly, "How about a beauty?"

Xue Meiren smiled, "Hey, if the eldest princess wants to deal with her little talent, isn't it like crushing an ant to death? There is no need for the concubine to think too much."

Yiman glanced at the Qingning Palace behind him, then raised his eyebrows and looked at the distant figure, "Then Beauty Xue, help me?"

Xue Meiren smiled knowingly, "The concubine is willing to solve the problems for the Eldest Princess, but I just hope that the Eldest Princess will remember the Twelve Princesses in the future."

Yiman nodded with a faint smile and watched Xue Meiren leave in the direction of Guo Cairen.

Han Zhi took a step forward, with worry on his face, "Princess, it's strange that Xue Meiren has surrendered, could it be a situation? If this kind of public discussion is heard by someone with a heart-"

Yiman shook his head slightly, looked back at Qingning Palace, "Let's talk about it after returning to Qingsi Palace."

"Yes."

Returning to Qingsi Hall, looking at Hanzhi's worried face, Yiman said with relief: "It's okay. Even if someone hears what I just said, it won't spread."

Han Zhi nodded, "The servant girl is going to tell the people in Qingsi Palace who just followed the princess, just because she is afraid that people from Xue Meiren will speak out."

"Beautiful Xue knew when I was leaving Qingning Palace, and deliberately used Guo Cairen and Concubine De to provoke me, don't you think it's strange?"

Hanzhi thought for a moment, "It's a little strange. If Xue Meiren saw the princess's appearance and wanted to get close to the princess, it would make sense. But how could she take the initiative to surrender after meeting for the first time? After understanding your situation, I started to provoke you with words, as if I knew early on that you would not like Concubine De."

Yiman casually picked up the white pastry on the table and looked at it, "Tell me, is Meiren Xue from Qingning Palace?"

"what--"

"If you want to ask who wants to get rid of Concubine De the most, it should be the Queen Mother and Nanny Gao. And Meiren Xue's reaction seems to know that I plan to deal with Concubine De in the morning. When it comes to Guo Cairen, it's more like giving someone to me. I pointed out the direction, let me deal with Guo Cairen first."

"How could the empress do that?"

"Even if the Queen Mother doesn't know how to do it, what about Aunt Gao? From now on, except for Qingsi Palace, I have to be more careful with others."

"Yes, this servant understands. The princess just meant to let Xue Meiren deal with Guo Cairen first, will she do it?"

"How could I do it first when Aunt Gao asked me to do it?"

"Princess, put it down——"

When he heard the shout, his eyes immediately glanced at the source of the sound. When he saw it was Ji Lan, he put down the cake he was playing with and smiled faintly, "Are you feeling better?"

Looking at the intact pastries on the table, Ji Lan breathed a sigh of relief, and respectfully knelt down to salute.

"Slave Ji Lan sees the eldest princess and thanks her for saving her life."

"No need to be polite, it's not a life-saving favor. I just heard the noise while passing by and met him. I have already told your grandma in charge that if you are willing, you can stay in Qingsi Hall in the future."

Ji Lan's eyes were red, and she kowtowed deeply, "Although the princess is helping me casually, it is a great favor from my servant. The servant is willing to stay in Qingsi Hall and serve the eldest princess forever."

Yiman glanced at Hanzhi, who immediately stepped forward to help Ji Lan up.

"There is no need to be polite. Now that you have entered the Qingsi Hall, you can serve me by my side from now on."

"Thank you princess."

"What did you tell me to let go of?"

Ji Lan stared at the exquisite cakes on the plate in panic, "Princess, I just went out and saw someone sneaking in and pouring some powder into the cakes. I went to follow that person and lost track of him, so I came back quickly. ”
