Jiang Huai's expression paused for a moment, but he quickly reacted.

He has been with Gu Changning since he was a child. With just a look from Gu Changning, Jiang Huai can tacitly think of what is in his master's heart.

The newly promoted people are from the Queen or have been bribed by the Queen.

Thinking of this, Jiang Huai quickly walked towards Xiao Xizi, picked up the whisk and threw it hard on Xiao Xizi's lap.

Just listen to a "pop" sound.

Xiao Xizi let out a cry of pain and fell to the ground with both legs. Jiang Huai raised his hand and two forbidden soldiers walked in from outside the hall and pushed Xiao Xizi to the ground.

Xiao Xizi felt panic in her heart. She raised her head and asked Gu Changning: "Your Highness, what has this slave committed? You want to punish me."

Gu Changning picked up a piece of meat dish and threw it into his mouth, but without looking at Xiao Xizi again, he said in a cold voice: "There is lingering fragrance under the sleeves and robes."

Xiao Xizi's body was shaking violently, and before he could react, he was taken out of Minghuaxuan by Jiang Huai.

Gu Changning also put down his chopsticks, stood up and walked to Xie Jinyun.

Xie Jinyun did not understand pharmacology and could not detect the scent that ordinary people could not smell like Gu Changning. However, it was confirmed from what Gu Changning said that Xiao Xizi brought something into the East Palace on the order of the Queen. Such something would be harmful to her. .

"What is it?" As soon as Xie Jinyun asked, Jiang Huai came back with a package of things.

But Jiang Huai did not dare to enter the palace. He stood outside the palace and reported with great anxiety: "Your Highness, I have found something. It is a bag of musk spices."

When Xie Jinyun heard this, his eyebrows suddenly frowned and his expression changed drastically.

"Xiao Xizi put the spices in the garden where the princess usually enjoys flowers and fish." Jiang Huai said.

Gu Changning put his arms around Xie Jinyun's waist and looked down at her. He saw that her face was not good, and he was afraid that this incident would frighten her and cause her to have fetal contractions.

He comforted Xie Jinyun in a low voice: "Don't worry, the East Palace was safe before. I checked the East Palace inside and out. However, you should not go to Zilan Pavilion for the time being."

"Musk is a hidden weapon to prevent pregnancy. If a pregnant woman touches it, it will have the effect of inducing pregnancy." Although she does not know medical skills, she knows the medicine of musk: "If I am not pregnant yet, musk will have the effect of preventing pregnancy." , even if I successfully conceive, the fetus in my belly will most likely die on the way."

Xie Jinyun turned back to look at Gu Changning and said: "The Queen wants to eliminate the children of the East Palace and does not want me and the Prince to have a grandson."

Having said this, Xie Jinyun's eyes darkened: "Several princes under the emperor's name have already married, and there are many concubines in the backyard, but none of them have successfully given birth to the emperor's grandson. Now only Prince Liang's house is happy, husband, please think about it , if all the princesses, including you, have no heirs, but only Prince Liang does, what will be the consequences?" Gu Changning's eyes darkened, with murderous intent in his heart.

The queen can't stay.

"Xiao Xizi has been taken over for the time being. Don't alert the snake first. We want to reveal the child in Princess Liang's belly and the condition of Prince Liang on the Queen Mother's birthday. During this period, your husband can send people to the backyards of several princes to take a look. If nothing else, it should be possible. If you have other gains, please pass the knife to Concubine Hua."

She put her hand on Gu Changning's arm and stroked it gently.

The anger on his body gradually subsided, and he looked back at Jiang Huai: "Do you know what to do?"

"My slave knows." Jiang Huai took his things, exited Minghuaxuan, and went to "greet" Xiao Xizi.

The moment Jiang Huai turned around, he felt two eyes staring at him coldly from behind.

Xiao Xizi was promoted by him, but his master discovered that there was something wrong with the person he promoted, and he had an unshirkable responsibility.

"The palace is busy with affairs. Eunuch Jiang is as busy as a spinning top. You don't have to blame him for this."

She knew that Gu Changning was angry with Jiang Huai, but no matter what, Jiang Huai was a loyal servant who accompanied him through that difficult journey, and he could not let the people who were loyal to him feel cold because of her.

Gu Changning's expression softened and he asked Huaxi to go to the imperial kitchen to get meals again.

At night.

Jianghuai has already taken care of Xiao Xizi.

When he walked into Minghuaxuan with tea, Gu Changning was sitting in front of the case and reading the memorial.

Jiang Huai carefully put down the tea, not daring to make any sound. Just as he was about to quietly retreat to the side, Gu Changning suddenly raised his eyes to look at him.

Jiang Huai didn't dare to look at him, lowered his head and knelt aside.

Gu Changning put down the memorial and asked: "How many sticks did you receive?" (End of Chapter)
