"Nu'ale, see your majesty, see your empress."

A young eunuch followed Dong Ruo into the palace. He looked young and his face was still childish, but he didn't show any timidity here and his etiquette was perfect.

"Are you from the Royal Garden?"

"Reporting to your Majesty, it was my turn to be on duty in the imperial garden that day, and I happened to see Zhao Cairen."

"What did you see? Tell me word for word."

Emperor Liang leaned forward slightly and spoke in a deep tone.

"Yes. When I saw Zhao Cairen's expression, I didn't dare to come forward to disturb him. I just trimmed the flowers and trees aside. But not long after, I heard Cai Ren shouting. I hurriedly went to take a look. At that time, Cai Ren had fallen on the ground.

The ground has... already seen red."

A Le occasionally stumbled when he said it, but it was still smooth. Emperor Liang raised his eyelids a little more: "What about the others?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, everything else is the same as what Miss Caiyi said, except...just..."

A Le seemed to be tabooing something, with an uncertain expression on his face.

"The Holy Master is here, why are you hesitating?"

Jiang Zhi frowned and urged, A Le looked up carefully, her eyes flickered, and to outsiders it looked like she was glaring at A Le. A Le quickly lowered his head and said: "Yes... yes, I'll do it right now."

explain."

"Before Zhao Cairen came... I saw an unfamiliar Gong'e squatting on the cobblestone road and didn't know what to do. I felt strange and stepped forward to ask her, but the Gong'e turned around and ran away as soon as I saw you. What's your name?

Neither should."

"If what A Le said is true, then... someone deliberately wanted to harm Zhao Cairen?"

Jiang Zhi's eyes sharpened: "Have you ever clearly seen the appearance of that palace lady?"

"Reporting to the empress, I was in such a hurry that I didn't get to see it clearly. I just remember... that the dress of the palace maid was not like that of an ordinary sweeping palace maid. It looked like... she was working next to some mistress."

As A Le spoke later, his voice became softer and softer. After all, these words made everyone present suspicious. For a moment, everyone looked at each other, and those who were close to each other began to whisper.

"You really don't remember anything else?"

A Le was silent for a moment, then hesitantly said: "Nu... I still know something, but I don't know whether I should mention it..."

"You can say that even though His Majesty is here, are you still afraid that someone will harm you?"

A Le bowed and said, "When I went to the flower room to get flowers a few days ago, I heard the palace people there chatting and talking about going to Changle Palace to get a pot of pebbles."

"Pebbles?" Jiang Zhi raised her eyebrows and looked at Liu Qiyun with a half-smile, "May I ask my sister what you want pebbles for?"

"I want some pebbles to decorate the flowers and plants. Is there any problem?" Liu Qiyun laughed. How could she not notice something at this time?

"Have you never been to the other palaces?" Emperor Liang said slowly.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, this... I don't know, but there should be a record in the greenhouse."

"Then the servants from Xuanhuafang will come." Jiang Zhi glanced at Emperor Liang and gave the order after receiving his permission.

Song Qingan rubbed his forehead and felt a little tired.

"Your Majesty," she stood up and looked up, "I feel unwell and want to go out for some fresh air."

Emperor Liang frowned, but then he thought about it. This was a matter for the concubines in the harem, and it had nothing to do with her as a princess. Besides, she had never been in good health. Therefore, Emperor Liang did not stop her and let her go with a wave of his hand.

.

Song Qing'an thanked him and turned around to go outside the palace.

There were so many people crowded into one room, and the concubine loved to dress up. The smell of all kinds of powders mixed together made her dizzy.

She didn't go too far, she just stood in the corridor and leaned on the railing, lost in thought.

Zhu Yan stood quietly behind him, and then heard Song Qing'an suddenly ask: "Is there any change in the people serving in Zhao Cairen's palace...?"

Zhu Yan was confused, but replied truthfully: "I don't know. If the princess wants to know, I will ask Zhuo Ning to go and find out?"

"...I'll go there later. I'm afraid there are many pairs of eyes staring at that place right now."

Song Qingan tapped the railing lightly and looked into the distance.

Zhu Yan only thought that Song Qing'an was concerned about Zhao Cairen's miscarriage, so he didn't take it seriously.

"Zhao Cairen...is in the side hall, right?"

Song Qing'an's eyes lit up when he thought of Zhao Cairen who had been sent out from the beginning.

"Come with me to see her."

After she finished speaking, she turned around and left, and Zhu Yan hurriedly followed.

Unlike the liveliness of the main hall, the side hall looks much deserted.

There were two maids guarding the door. Seeing that it was Song Qingan, they did not stop her.

Zhao Cairen was leaning on the soft couch, with a bowl of soup on the small table beside him.

"Why don't you take the medicine, Talent? It will be cold later."

Song Qing'an walked in with a smile on his face, and Zhao Cairen was startled by the sudden voice and suddenly opened his eyes.

"Princess……"

After Zhao Cairen was astonished, he wanted to stand up to greet him, but Song Qingan pushed him back.

"The talent is still weak, so it's better to lie down and rest."

Zhu Yan moved a rose chair behind Song Qing'an, who took advantage of the situation and sat down beside Zhao Cairen's soft couch. His eyes moved to the bowl of medicine: "Concubine Chen really cares about Cai Ren, and she didn't forget to cook it for Cai Ren."

Where’s the medicine?”

Zhao Cairen twitched his lips and forced a smile on his face: "Concubine Chen is kind-hearted...I am extremely grateful."

Song Qing'an smiled, reached out and took the medicine bowl and sniffed it under his nose.

The wall of the bowl was still slightly hot, obviously the medicine had just been fried.

Song Qing'an looked at Zhao Cairen without any trace, and saw that she was a little nervous when she saw that he had taken the medicine.

She pretended not to notice, and looked at Zhao Cairen with raised eyebrows: "I tried it on Cairen's behalf, and this medicine is just right for the mouth."

Zhao Cairen opened his mouth to speak, but Song Qingan raised his hand to stop him.

Song Qing'an seemed to think about it carefully, and then said: "Really, I have forgotten that it is not convenient for the talented person to drink medicine by himself."

"Zhu Yan," Song Qing'an waved, and Zhu Yan immediately stepped forward and bowed his head respectfully, "serve the talented man to drink medicine."

"yes."

Zhu Yan responded in a low voice, took the medicine bowl and knelt in front of Zhao Cairen's soft couch, scooped up a spoonful and handed it to her lips.

The bitter smell of the decoction dissipated, and Zhao Cairen turned his head, glanced at the decoction, and then looked at Song Qing'an, with a faint look of pleading in his eyes.

But Song Qing'an didn't seem to notice it, and his face was confused and worried: "Do you think this medicine is bitter...Actually, I feel it too."

"You guys, go get some candied fruits."

Song Qing'an raised his voice to the maid outside the palace. The two looked at each other and hesitated for a while.

"The princess is in the palace, what are you worried about? Go quickly!"

Zhu Yan said sideways, and the two looked at each other again before leaving.

"Princess……"

Song Qing'an looked down at her, held her hand outside the quilt, and smiled innocently: "That's good. Only when people remember to take medicine can their health get better as soon as possible, right?"

"Talent is still so young. As long as he takes a good rest, he can still conceive a dragon heir."

Song Qing'an said ordinary comforting words, and even if someone overheard at this time, they would not think there was a problem. But Zhao Cairen's eyes looked sad, and for a moment, he shed a tear.
