Palace Prisoner

Chapter 22 Someone poisoned

Seeing that it was still early, it was not fun. Several people walked to the backyard together. Song Yiyi walked halfway and ordered the maid to go to those pastries, and Shen Sirong's maid Hanmei was also called to help.

Wang Shu came forward and took Shen Sirong's arm. Shen Sirong smiled and did not refuse. They went along the stone road to a stone table and sat down.

"The moonlight tonight is really good. It's fate for us to meet, but we will leave the palace in a few days." Han Qianxue said with emotion.

"What did Sister Han say about this, leaving the palace? A beauty like my sister, the prince may choose her as a concubine. Song Yiyi said with compliments, but there was a trace of contempt in her eyes.

Han Qianxue listened and smiled: "My sister is really praised. I just want to be safe for a lifetime. How can I still be selected by the prince? Instead, Sister Wang and Sister Shen, I think they are the most blessed people. If my sister gets rich one day, don't forget the friends of our sisters today.

Han Qianxue is not very good-looking, but her brain is very smart. This first took Song Yiyi's face, and it was also like Wang Shu's goodwill with herself. Shen Sirong secretly praised it in his heart.

Ye Su and Shen Sirong looked at each other and didn't make a sound. Wang Shu said an angryly, "Sister, don't talk nonsense. You will be laughed at when you are heard."

Several people laughed and talked a few more words, and the maids approached with snacks. After a while, the table was full of sweet porridge, melons and fruits, pies, soft cakes...

"Let's eat..." Han Qianxue made something and greeted everyone to eat when the food was on the table.

Shen Sirong's stomach was bloated. Looking at the things full of the table, she really couldn't lift her appetite. She just picked up a piece of sweet fruit and ate it. Song Yiyi saw that she didn't move her chopsticks and picked up a piece of pie and put it in Shen Sirong's bowl.

"Sister Shen, I just tasted it. It's salty. Don't you like sweets? Eat this..." Shen Sirong picked it up with wooden chopsticks (what the ancients call chopsticks) and put it into Wang Shu's bowl.

"I remember that my sister also likes salty stuffing. I really have accumulated food today and my stomach is very uncomfortable. I was nauseous for a while before I came here.

Wang Shu smiled and took a bite: "It's really good. Sister Shen is really happy today."

"Who can't eat this stomach?" Shen Sirong has a good impression of Wang Shu. Although she is indifferent, she is not an old-fashioned person. After a few days of contact, she occasionally made a few jokes with them.

After sitting for another half an hour, Xi Xi's evening breeze rose, and several people went back together.

Back to the room, Shen Sirong half leaned against the bed and put his hand on his stomach.

"Miss Shen, do you want to report it to Mother?" Han Xiang brought a plate of hot water and twisted a hot towel for her. Shen Sirong's lips were a little white. She shook her head: "I've already accumulated food, and I just ate some cold fruits. I'll be fine after I rest. You go down."

Han Xiang nodded and went to the door and retreated. This night, Shen Sirong's room was not quiet. She tossed until dawn before she fell asleep in a daze.

Miss Shen, Miss Shen. Miss Shen..."

Shen Sirong opened his eyes slightly when he heard the call, but he was stabbed by the bright light and subconsciously raised his hand to cover his eyes. It took a while to adapt to the brightness.

"Miss Shen, something happened. Mother Lan asked you to gather in the hall immediately." Hanxiang took Shen Sirong's clothes and put them on her.

"What happened? Who has happened? What happened?" Shen Sirong took the coat from Hanxiang's hand and put it on by himself.

"It's Miss Wang. Somehow, she has a rash." Han Xiang looked at Shen Sirong as she spoke.

"Rash?" Shen Sirong was surprised: "Is it serious? Why did you suddenly get a rash? She always has unconcealed worries in her indifference.

Is it last night?

Shen Sirong flashed an idea and hurried to the direction of the inner hall.

She met Ye Su, who also came in a hurry at the door. Ye Su came forward alone with a straight face. After greeting Shen Sirong, she did not go in directly, but looked at the hall.

"Don't you think this is a little weird?" Ye Su's red lips moved slightly.

Shen Sirong looked at her in surprise: "Why do you think so?" She also feels that there is something wrong with this matter, but now there is no division between enemies and friends, and there can be no loopholes in her words.

Ye Su smiled. She seemed to see through Shen Sirong's mind: "Don't worry, everyone may be your enemy, but I can't." This made Shen Sirong puzzled.

Wither waiting for Shen Sirong to speak, Ye Su continued to say, "Be careful. I always feel that there is a conspiracy behind this matter, and it is likely that it will come to you.

Shen Sirong has had a bottom in her heart for a long time, but Ye Su's straightforward words still made her heart goosebumps. She had already thought about it on the way here. If this is not an accident, then someone wants to take action against her or Wang Shu.

Han Qianxue's figure also approached. Ye Su left a sentence and walked into the inner hall: "Be careful. You were the only one who didn't eat those things last night."

Shen Sirong glanced at Han Qianxue and followed him into the inner hall.

Except for Wang Shu, the other four people have arrived. Mother Lan sat on the top and looked at them coldly. The imperial doctor has replied that Wang Shu's rash is rubella, but she always feels that it is not so simple.

"I've met Mother Lan."

M Mother Lan stood up and walked to them: "Tact about what happened last night?" She didn't tell us how Wang Shu's condition was, just to see if there were any flaws. Wang Shu is Shufei's niece, and Shufei will definitely investigate, so she has to give an accountability.

Seeing that no one else planned to speak first, Han Qianxue stood up bravely: "Last night, I invited several sisters to sit at my place, and then we went to the yard together. Then everyone had some snacks and chatted for a while, and then went back to their rooms.

"Is that so?"

The rest nodded.

Mother Lan stood in front of Han Qianxue: "What they eat is yours?"

Han Qianxue hurriedly shook her head and explained, "No, I didn't eat in my room before, but later I wandered around the yard and asked the maids to get it."

"So did all of you eat those things?" Mother Lan looked over their faces one by one and saw Song Yiyi's eyebrows moving. She went to Song Yiyi and asked, "Tell me."

Song Yiyi looked very scared. She took a step back and lowered her head.

"back... Mother, last night, we all ate those pastries. Except, except..."

"Except who?" Seeing that Song Yiyi said half of what she said, obviously there was also the following, and Mother Lan took another step closer.

Song Yiyi looked timidly at Shen Sirong, and Mother Lan followed her eyes and met Shen Sirong. Shen Sirong looked calm. From the time he talked about yesterday's food, she knew that this matter would definitely be on her head. She didn't touch last night's snacks. If she is suspected, no one will refute it.

When Song Yiyi saw Mother Lan's distraction, her shoulders loosened. Han Qianxue looked at her with deep meaning. Ye Su seemed to want to say something and went back, but the worries in her eyes were clear.

"M Mother, I accumulated food yesterday and only ate a few mouthfuls of melons and fruits in the yard at night, and I haven't eaten those snacks." Shen Sirong looked at everyone's reaction. Before Mother Lan asked, she said herself.

"Oh?" Mother Lan gave a faint oh, but walked past Shen Sirong to the cold fragrance and cold plum standing by the door. The two of them saluted Mother Lan and said, "Miss Shen did accumulate food last night. She vomited several times before she went to Miss Han's room. After coming back, she had abdominal pain because she ate cold fruit. In the middle of the night, the maidservant got up and went into the house several times. Miss Shen didn't fall asleep all night."

Hearing this, Mother Lan was silent. If no one was suspected, Wang Shu's illness would come too unfortunately. Tomorrow is the general election. She must not be able to run with such illness...

M Mother Lan couldn't ask anything, so she canceled today's training and asked them to go back to prepare for the general election. Shen Sirong walked to Wang Shu's door and stopped.

"I want to meet Miss Wang, please send it to me..."

Wang Shu's two maids were guarding at the door. When they saw Shen Sirong coming forward, one of the maids frowned: "Miss Shen, what are you doing here?"

Despite her rudeness, Shen Sirong looked at the other one. In addition, the maid looked very steady. She also came forward and said, "Miss Shen, my maidservant's name is Qingcui. This is Qingyun. I hope you can forgive her rudeness."

Shen Sirong picked up Qingcui: "How about you, Miss?"

"Miss Wang was afraid that she suffered from the wind last night and had a rash in the middle of the night. I just took medicine and fell asleep." Shen Sirong knew that Wang Shu was fine, so he felt a little relieved.

......

After receiving the news, Concubine was furious. Wang Shu was the best pawn beside Xiao Yuanqi. Why did this happen? She has a rash and will never be able to participate in tomorrow's election. It's not a waste of opportunity. Concubine Shu was so angry that she still sent Li Ge to take care of her, and the Wang family will come to pick her up later.

When Li Ge entered Wang Shu's room, Wang Shu sat with her back to the door. There was no light in the room, the windows were closed to death, and the dark room looked particularly dull. Li Ge closed the door and walked in. She took a look at the packed bags on the table and put the things brought from Zilan Palace next to her bags.

"Miss Wang, this was specially sent to you by Concubine Shu." Li Ge said softly. Wang Shu's hair slipped to her chest, and Li Ge found that she didn't have hair.

Wang Shu swept the things on the table with her backhand, and there was a whining sound in her mouth. The sound was not loud but it could make people hear.

"The Empress Shu asked the maidservant to ask the lady whether this matter is man-made or God's will." Hearing this, Wang Shu turned to laugh in a low voice. The laughter became more and more crazy. In the end, she laughed until her whole body trembled.

"Miss Wang..." Li Ge called again uneasantly.

Wang Shu was still smiling and did not answer.
