The legitimate daughter is reborn and the fake Bai Lian is completely panicked

The young palace maid picked up the queen's half-burned clothes and searched inside the clothes for a long time, but couldn't find the jade hairpin.

"My lady, there is no hairpin in this dress."

"Could it be that because of the fire, the queen panicked and fell to the ground?"

The queen sat on the chair with a gloomy face.

"For no reason, all the clues have been cut off."

"I remember that hairpin was aqua blue."

With her eyes slightly narrowed, she looked at the little palace maid beside her.

"Prepare paper and pen for me. I want to draw it."

"It's the lady."

In a moment, paper and pen were ready.

The queen picked up the pen, thought for a moment, and finally drew the general color and outline of the jade hairpin.

However, her memory of the hairpin was very vague, and she could only draw a rough outline.

Manpuku-ji Temple has been reduced to ashes, and it is not easy to find even if you want to.

She handed the rice paper to the little palace maid and said, "Send this painting to Madam Zhao and ask her to ask around in the shops in Yanjing City if there are any hairpins like this for sale. Who did they sell them to?"

"I won't leave any of them alive."

The maid took the painting and said, "It's the queen."

As I turned around, I heard the voice of another palace maid outside.

"Your Majesty, may your Majesty live a thousand years and a thousand thousand years."

Before the Queen could come to her senses, Emperor Ren De had already walked in from outside Fengyi Palace with an expressionless face.

Seeing this, the queen immediately pretended to be weak and pitiful and walked in front of His Majesty.

"I, my concubine, see your majesty"

Emperor Ren De reached out and helped the man up.

"Why did Wanfuji Temple catch fire out of nowhere?"

The queen deliberately turned away, feeling very aggrieved.

"Your Majesty, I don't know why the fire started."

"I am the queen of Yan after all, but someone set my house on fire and I almost died in the fire."

"If it weren't for Duke Lin's help, I would have become a pile of bones."

The more the Queen spoke, the more aggrieved she felt, but Emperor Ren De's brows became more and more furrowed.

Duke Lin said he was ill for a day, so why did he go to Wanfu Temple? And he saved the queen?

He has been on the throne for many years and has governed Dayan for many years. How could he not figure out the reason?

He looked at the queen calmly and helped her sit on the chair.

"Don't be sad, Queen. I will have the Dali Temple conduct a thorough investigation into the fire."

The Queen's expression changed and she looked at Emperor Ren De in disbelief.

"Your Majesty wants the Dali Temple to investigate?"

Emperor Ren De nodded, "The Dali Temple has always been very capable, and they will always find some clues, and they will definitely not let you suffer in vain."

The queen forced a smile.

"If Your Majesty wants the Dali Temple to investigate, then go ahead."

The Dali Temple has always been ruthless in its approach. If they really want to get to the bottom of this, I'm afraid her affair with Duke Lin will be exposed to everyone.

Thinking of this, the queen had to find another way and asked the prince to go to the Dali Temple.

This means that the Dali Temple does not have to investigate so carefully, or even not at all.

Emperor Rende saw that the queen looked unhappy and asked, "What's wrong with the queen? Are you not satisfied with my arrangement?"

"Or is it that the Queen is hiding something from me?"

The Queen shook her head, "No, Your Majesty, your arrangements must be good."

He helped Emperor Ren De sit down on the chair.

Emperor Ren De had a calm expression and spoke slowly.

"The Duke told me yesterday that he was not feeling well and needed to rest for a day. How could he go to Wanfu Temple for no reason?"

As soon as Ren De's voice fell, the Queen's face turned pale.

"The Duke probably burned incense and prayed for blessings. After all, his daughter Lin Yueyan died in the Shen Mansion a few days ago."

"You happened to see me trapped in the sea of ​​fire, so you rescued me."

"Your Majesty, I go to Wanfu Temple every month to pray for Your Majesty, Jing'er, and Che'er. I never thought something like this would happen."

"Someone must have set the fire with malicious intent to kill me."

"Your Majesty, why don't you gather all the people who went to Wanfu Temple today and interrogate them one by one? That way, we can get to the bottom of it."

Now the hairpin has been burned to ashes, although the queen has drawn a rough outline of it.

But it may not be correct, and it may not necessarily find the person who lost the hairpin.

She could only take a gamble and gather all the girls who had been to Wanpukuji Temple and interrogate them one by one, hoping to find the flaws.

The emperor sneered and said, "I will ask the Dali Temple to investigate the fire in Wanfu Temple."

"But there are many people going to Wanfuji Temple every day, thousands or even tens of thousands, and it is impossible to interrogate them one by one."

"If you do this in such a high-profile way, the pilgrims will know your intentions and may not tell the truth out of fear of losing their lives."

"It is impossible to verify whether any of them have ever been to Wanfuji Temple."

"Now that you are back safely, take a good rest. I will come to see you another day."

Seeing the indifferent expression on Emperor Ren De's face, the Queen roughly guessed that the crazy words had reached his ears.

She could only nod, "Yes, Your Majesty."

"I respectfully send you off to Your Majesty."

Emperor Ren De stood up from his chair and walked out the door. As he reached the entrance of Fengyi Palace, he turned around and looked at the Queen.

The queen was a little flustered, "What's wrong, Your Majesty? Why are you looking at me like this?"

The corners of Emperor Ren De's lips curled up in a cold arc, "Nothing, I heard some crazy talk."

"But I choose to believe the Queen."

"I don't think the Queen would lie to me, right?"

"Yes."

"I will certainly not deceive Your Majesty."

"That's good. I hope you didn't tell a lie." Emperor Ren De turned and walked out of Fengyi Palace.

Watching the back of Emperor Ren De leaving, the queen collapsed on the ground.

"Who is it, who wants to harm me?"

Outside, after Emperor Ren De came out of Fengyi Palace, his expression suddenly changed and he gave instructions to Eunuch Wang beside him.

"Think of a way to get one of the palace maids out of Fengyi Palace and arrange for a new one to go in."

"I want to know what the queen does on a daily basis."

Eunuch Wang nodded slightly, "Yes, Your Majesty."

Inside Fengyi Palace, the little palace maid walked over and helped the queen up from the ground.

"My lady, the ground is cold, be careful not to hurt yourself."

The queen was helped to lie back on the couch, and soon the prince entered Fengyi Palace.

"Mother, I heard that you almost died in the fire at Wanfu Temple?"

"Who on earth is it? How brave of you to be so?"

The Queen stood up from the chaise longue and her eyes fell on the Prince.

"You are now entangled with Shen Shu, and you still care about me, your mother."

The prince walked closer and slowly sat down next to her.

"How is mother now? Is she injured?"

"I heard that it was the Duke who saved my mother?"

The queen nodded and looked at Crown Prince Murong Jing with gentle eyes.

"Jing'er, you are not young anymore. Even though you have the position of crown prince, it is not stable enough after all."

"You were given the position of crown prince because your mother mentioned Murong Che's evil deeds and arrogance in front of your father."

"You gave him advice and asked him to make you the crown prince to check and balance Murong Che, and your father agreed."

"You are now only concerned with getting entangled with Shen Shu, and you don't care about ascending the throne at all."

The prince picked up the tea on the table and took a sip.

He laughed and said, "How could you know, mother, that I didn't take it seriously?"

"I have my own plans. I have no objection to who you want me to marry."

The queen took the medicine brought by the palace maid with a sullen face.

After she finished the medicine, she put the bowl on the tray and then spoke.

"I have discussed with the Duke and decided to let you marry the left prime minister's youngest daughter."

"Although the woman is plain in appearance, she is virtuous after all."

"If I can use the power of the Left Prime Minister to help you gain a firm foundation in the future, it would be perfect."

The prince was silent for a moment, but when he thought of the plain face of the daughter of the Left Prime Minister, he suddenly became furious.

He is the high and mighty prince, how could he be worthy of such an ordinary-looking woman.

"You can marry her, but I don't want to touch her."

The prince stood up and shook his sleeves.

"Everything will be arranged by the Queen Mother. I will take my leave now."

The prince looked cold and somewhat unhappy as he strode out of Fengyi Palace.

"Jing'er."

"Jing'er."

"Isn't mother doing this for your own good? Why don't you understand her?"

……

The news that the Queen had encountered a fire in Wanfu Temple quickly spread throughout the city of Yanjing.

As the sun sets, Shen Mi is in the Lanyue Courtyard, carefully examining the target that Murong Che gave him yesterday.

The target is extremely sharp and can cut your hands if you are not careful.

However, the tip of the target is made of bronze, and I don’t know if it can be stained by poison like red.

Shen Mi took the Nine-Grain Red out of the box. She gently picked up a little of it with a fine needle and placed it in a bowl.

Then he took another small half bowl of water and put the medicine in it.

When she saw that the medicine was almost soaked, she placed the target in the water.

After putting it in for only a moment, Shen Mi took out the target and tried it again with the silver needle.

The silver needle turned black in an instant.

Sure enough, this red cinnabar poisons quickly and is also very toxic.

This poison will not kill people, but it will paralyze them in bed. Even if they are cured, they will never have children.

In the previous life, the prince killed Yuer.

In this life, I will make sure that he will never have any offspring and will never have a chance to become emperor.

Shen Mi poured out all the poison in the bowl, Yun Lan pushed the door open and walked in front of Shen Mi.

"Miss, there is news from the palace."

"It is said that it was Duke Lin who saved the Queen at Wanfu Temple today. This is really outrageous."

Shen Mi sneered and put down the poison arrow in his hand.

"He saved the queen. What a coincidence?"

"Do you really think your majesty is a fool?"

She looked at Yun Lan, "Isn't it easy to let the real crazy talk reach His Majesty's ears?"

"With so many people watching today, I'm afraid Yanjing City would have been in chaos by now."

"Let's wait and see what happens."

Yun Lan nodded, "Yes, Miss."

Shen Mi walked to the window, looked at the chess game on the board, reached out and took a black piece and placed it on the board.

"How is Brother doing? Has any woman gone to see him?"

Yun Lan shook her head, "Not yet, but it should be in the next two days."

"In the past few days, he has taken the initiative to visit some wives of noble families in Yanjing City to check their pulses and prescribe medicine. He also set up a stall in South Lane to provide free medical services."

"It seems like the response there is pretty good."

"Just wait a few days and see what happens."

Shen Mi nodded, "The Qionghua Banquet is only a few days away, I hope everything goes well."
