Mother Qi's face instantly became more solemn, and she nodded: "If you return to the Emperor, the old slave will always be responsible for the Queen Mother's diet."

Gu Yunmo frowned with a solemn expression: "The queen mother was poisoned yesterday, do you have anything to say?"

Qi's mother's face was not much prettier than Gu Yunmo's, and her lips moved and she spoke:

"When I return to the Emperor, there is nothing wrong with the Queen Mother's recent diet. The food and drinks that can be brought to the Queen Mother's presence are all personally checked by this old slave."

When Gu Yunmo heard this, he withdrew his sharp eyes and changed the question: "Has the Queen Mother's Cining Palace had a new member recently, or... have you found anyone suspicious?"

Mother Qi shook her head again: "I serve the Queen Mother for more than two days. This time, the Queen Mother was suddenly poisoned. This time, I am worried and afraid..."

Mother Qi continued: "I didn't sleep all night last night. I have gone through all the questions that the emperor wants to ask in my heart..."

At this point, Qi's mother paused and sighed: "I really have no clue at all."

"Could it be that the Queen Mother can poison the air?" The emperor's tone became colder and he asked angrily.

Qi's mother stood up and bowed, pursed her lips and said, "If you tell me back to the emperor, this is an old slave who has neglected his duty. Please punish me."

Seeing Qi's mother in this state, Gu Yunmo felt a little more intolerable!

After all, Mother Qi also watched him grow up. She has been loyal to the Queen Mother for many years and has never slacked off!

Gu Yunmo rubbed his eyebrows and looked at Qi's mother: "Has the queen talked to you about anything recently?"

Qi's mother hurriedly followed Gu Yunmo's thoughts, but she was still confused: "What the emperor wants to ask is..."

"Have you ever told you about the Xinglin Temple case?" Gu Yunmo hit the nail on the head.

After listening to Gu Yunmo's words, Qi's mother's expression changed slightly.

"Your Majesty, this..."

"Say!" Gu Yunmo's voice was cold, with the aura of an inviolable person.

"The Queen Mother did mention it once..." Qi's mother said truthfully.

Gu Yunmo's eyes became colder and colder, waiting for Qi's mother to continue.

"When the Queen Mother first heard that eighty-one monks had died in Xinglin Temple, she felt uneasy..."

Qi's mother became embarrassed as she spoke, and her hands couldn't help but make small movements.

Ordinarily, someone like Mother Qi, who has been in the palace for half her life and has to look at everything in the palace, cannot be in such a cramped state...

Gu Yunmo realized that the matter was not simple and raised his eyebrows: "Keep talking!"

Only then did Qi’s mother continue to talk: "The Queen Mother has been praying to Buddha all year round... The fact that eighty-one monks died seems to the Queen Mother to have committed a great evil! The Queen Mother has trouble sleeping and eating, and even dreams about... at night...

"

"Why are you hesitating?" No matter how deep-tempered Gu Yunmo was, he lost his patience at this time and scolded him coldly.

"I really don't dare to say it." Qi's mother had to say: "It would be disrespectful to the emperor to say it..."

"I forgive your sin, say!"

"The Queen Mother dreamed that someone wanted to kill the emperor and usurp the throne." Only then did Qi's mother tell the truth.

Gu Yunmo couldn't help but be startled when he heard this, and then said after a moment: "Absurd!"

Mother Qi said from the side: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother said that such a thing happened, even if it is man-made, it is God's will! Since it is God's will, there are signs over there! The Queen Mother is worried that something will happen to you..."

Qi's mother took a breath and continued: "I was chatting with the old slave that we have to wait a few days to reshape the golden body of the Buddha statue in Xinglin Temple, and Xinglin Temple will also be renovated to accumulate blessings for you."

Gu Yunmo obviously did not expect that the Queen Mother had such intentions behind her decisive attitude.

Thinking of the Queen Mother's unquestionable determination at that time, all the doubts in Gu Yunmo's heart disappeared.

The tone of her words sounded much more relaxed: "I will thoroughly investigate the matter of the Queen Mother's poisoning! Mother Qi will continue to pay attention, and we will never tolerate such evil deeds!"

Mother Qi nodded: "Yes, Your Majesty."

At the same time, on the eaves diagonally opposite the Xuanhu Pavilion where people were coming and going, a woman in black clothes with an exquisite figure but dexterous and vigorous was dormant.

He is observing everyone who enters and exits the Xuanhu Pavilion with piercing eyes.

Her skin is wheat-colored and she has a heroic face. Although she is not very old, her eyes reveal a calmness and caution that does not match her age.

Although she had already guessed that this errand would be a protracted battle.

But she never expected! The other party could be so calm, and it took three whole days for the suspicious person to show his tail.

The woman's name is Chu Xian.

Like Xiao Ji, he is the first-class bodyguard beside Gu Yunting, but the difference is...

As her name suggests, Chu Xian is a woman with a slender figure.

Normal missions do not require first-class personal guards like Chu Xian and Xiao Ji.

Only for very important tasks, Gu Yunting would send the two of them.

Among these, those that require special characteristics such as patience and carefulness require Chu Xian to take action.

I received a temporary mission from the prince to keep an eye on the Xuan Hu Pavilion. It has been a day and a night now.

Chu Xian had the psychological quality that a professional killer should possess. The whole day passed without being impetuous, impetuous, or in a hurry. Xiao Ji admired this very much.
