Chapter 296

Just like that, within a short while, the news came out from the Longevity Garden that the imperial concubine of the Ming Dynasty was seriously ill with the poison.

This made all the slaves working in Wanshou Garden panic all day long.

There are two little maids get together.

"It's been two days and the murderer hasn't been found yet.

Who do you think has the guts to poison the imperial concubine? "

"The key is that the emperor values ​​the imperial concubine. If the situation of the imperial concubine is really bad... we should not have to be buried with him!"

There is a precedent in the palace where the master dies and the slaves are buried with him.

Upon hearing this, the little maid panicked,
"This... I don't want to die, I still want to leave the palace when I'm old!"

"Me too."

As soon as I said this, I heard a scolding,
"It really blinded your eyes, covered your hearts, and let you gossip about the affairs of the masters behind your back. Everyone thinks that your heads are on your shoulders for too long?"

Eunuch Li was furious,
"Don't say that the imperial concubine is sick now, even if the imperial concubine is well now, if you say this, there is no place for you to stay in the Imperial Palace!"

The two little maids who spoke just now knelt down on the ground,
"Eunuch Li made atonement, the slaves will never dare again."

Eunuch Li didn't show affection at all, he waved his whisk in the air,
"You two don't need to wait in front of the emperor anymore, go to the greenhouse, it's clean."

After finishing speaking, regardless of shouting, he directly ordered the two chattering little maids to be dragged down.

Eunuch Li is in a bad mood.

Because the person who murdered Concubine Qi has not been found yet.

The emperor was in a bad mood, and he was also affected.

Otherwise, as usual, he would have reprimanded her twice, and would not have punished her like this.

They are all slaves, who is easier than the other.

But if one thing is not fair, another thing will happen again.

Just as Eunuch Li's stomach was on fire, he heard another 'clang'.

It was the sound of a teacup falling to the ground.

He thought it was some blind little court lady, but when he turned his head, he saw the tea spilled all over the floor, Xiao Shunzi was dumbfounded, and his clothes were still wet a lot.

Eunuch Li reprimanded with a cold face,
"Xiao Shunzi, what are you doing so carelessly? You still think the palace is not chaotic enough?"

"Yes, yes, the apprentice knows his mistake."

Xiao Shunzi hurriedly lay down on the ground, collected the debris with his sleeves, and put them on his robe one by one, thinking about cleaning them up as soon as possible.

In a hurry, he even hurt his hand.

After all, it is the person who has been with him for many years. When Eunuch Li saw the blood, he felt a little distressed.

He knew that Xiao Shunzi was timid, and just about to speak, he suddenly thought of the emperor's special order.

Just now, the emperor came out of Xinuang Pavilion and said a few words to him alone.

He was confused at the time, but now he couldn't help but think about it.

At that time, the emperor asked, "You brought Xiao Shunzi with you?"

He didn't understand why the emperor suddenly mentioned Xiao Shunzi, and immediately replied, "Yes."

"How long has he been with you?"

After thinking clearly, he immediately replied, "Today is the fifth year."

"Five years?" The emperor glanced at him, paused for a moment, and then said, "The time is not short."

Then, there was nothing to say.

At that time, Eunuch Li thought that Xiao Shunzi had done something wrong.

But now seeing Xiao Shunzi's hands and feet, he suddenly realized something.

He has served the emperor for many years, and he knows that the emperor will not say useless words.

Now, the more I think about it, the more I feel that there is something in the words.

He grabbed Xiao Shunzi, stared closely at Xiao Shunzi's eyes,
"Xiao Shunzi, tell our family honestly that you have done nothing wrong."
