Concubine Shang Yunxiao

Chapter 480 The Empress Is Not Guilty
Gong Qinglong looked at Liu Yu, knocked his head and said, "Liu Yu, who are you?"

"The emperor belongs to Concubine Zhenshu, so the old slave naturally followed the emperor." Liu Yu said cleverly.

Gong Qinglong snorted and ordered him to get new clothes to change.

After changing clothes, Gong Qinglong went to the violence room.When Empress Chen saw him kneeling on the ground as if seeing a savior, she burst into tears.

"The concubine is innocent, the concubine really didn't poison me." Empress Chen repeated these few words over and over again.

Gong Qinglong was already tired of hearing it, so he made her calm down.

"I know you are innocent."

"Your Majesty is wise and sees things like fire."

"Do you know that there was a mistake in the ginger-stir-fried beef. The cook used hairy ginger as ginger, and it was poisonous when mixed with beef." Gong Qinglong said, "Although I have neglected you for many years, you don't eat spicy food , I still remember. Why did you ask the kitchen to cook that spicy dish?"

Empress Chen shook her head and said: "The concubine also finds it very strange. The concubine doesn't eat spicy food, so naturally she wouldn't ask the kitchen to make this dish. When this dish was served, the concubine was bored. But I thought it might be the imperial dining room. In the rush, they brought dishes from other palaces to Fengqi Hall, and seeing that Liu Meiren liked to eat, the concubine didn't say anything. I didn't expect..." Empress Chen suddenly became frightened, and said, "Could it be that someone Do you want to frame your concubine?"

Gong Qinglong glanced at her, and said firmly: "Queen, don't make random guesses. The imperial chef didn't care about cooking and these things happened. The queen is innocent, so let's go back to Fengqi Palace and calm down."

Empress Chen looked at Gong Qinglong half-understanding, but she didn't dare to ask more questions, so she thanked him for that.

Gong Qinglong went to the jail again to personally interrogate the chef. Naturally, the chef fell on the ground trembling and yelled for injustice.

Gong Qinglong sneered and said, "Okay, please explain the stir-fried beef with ginger. If the explanation is clear, I will forgive you for your innocence."

The chef's chubby head was frozen in the air, and his face was ashen-colored.

Dusk fell over the palace.The gray sky outlines the corners of the palace, like the outline of a ferocious monster.The fresh flowers, plants and trees in the daytime are already full of shadows at this time.It seems that evil can breed at any time.

Gong Qinglong dragged his heavy body against the cool evening wind, and walked step by step towards Fengqi Palace.The flower path leading to Fengqi Temple has carried his footsteps for more than ten years.The beautiful woman in the palace has accompanied him through the long years since the young girl named Shui Ling, laughing and shedding many times.He experienced her transformation from innocence to maturity, from a flower in the morning dew to a beauty in twilight.
