Exclusive to you

"In reply to your Highness, I am indeed working in the kitchen." Luo Boyi answered respectfully.

"So, has anything special happened in the kitchen recently? Or have you noticed anyone behaving strangely coming in and out of there?" Leng Aotian's eyes were like an unfathomable cold pool, staring at Luo Boyi, as if he wanted to see through his inner thoughts through his eyes.

Faced with this sudden question, Luo Boyi could not help but feel confused. He looked at Leng Aotian blankly, then shook his head gently, indicating that he did not know what the other party meant: "I don't know what Your Majesty is referring to... Could it be that there is something wrong with my work in the kitchen? Please explain it to me, Your Majesty."

Leng Aotian frowned slightly, as if he was somewhat dissatisfied with Luo Boyi's reaction, but he did not show it. He gave Long Si beside him a subtle look, and Long Si understood and immediately took a step forward, explaining in a serious tone: "Last night, the princess was unfortunately poisoned. According to the diagnosis of the imperial physician, the cause of the disease was food incompatibility. And these foods all came from the kitchen."

Hearing that An Yuanyuan was poisoned, Luo Boyi showed an expression of disbelief on his face. He stared at everyone with wide eyes and asked, "Do you suspect me?"

Long Si quickly shook his head and said, "If the prince really suspected you, he wouldn't have let you question him here."

Bai Zimo, who was standing by, seemed to understand Leng Aotian's intention. He thought that Leng Aotian was suspecting the people in the kitchen. After all, the initial judgment was that the poisoning was caused by food incompatibility, and the food was sent from the kitchen. In any case, it was always right to check from the source first.

The only people who could touch the princess's food were the kitchen staff, apart from the four maids, Chun, Xia, Qiu and Dong, and himself. This narrowed the scope of the food.

Leng Aotian probably didn't go directly to the chef and other kitchen staff because he thought it would be easier to communicate with his own people. Moreover, Chen Tingfeng had already sneaked into the palace, but no one knew who he had disguised himself as, nor how many of his men had sneaked in with him. Therefore, before confirming who Chen Tingfeng was, he must not act rashly to avoid alerting the enemy.

Luo Boyi recalled everything that had happened in the kitchen recently, and his thoughts gradually became clear. Suddenly, his eyes fell on Leng Aotian Leng Aotian, and he said, "Chef, the chef is really weird."

After hearing what Luo Boyi said, Leng Aotian raised his eyebrows slightly, but responded calmly: "Go on."

Luo Boyi took a deep breath and continued, "Yesterday morning, I witnessed the chef preparing cakes for the princess, but I saw him adding some unknown powders into the dough. When I appeared there, he seemed very nervous. At first, I just thought that the powders might be something like baking powder, and didn't think much about it. However, looking back now, his guilty expression at the time was obviously very wrong. Not only that, he has become completely different in the past few days. The gentle and approachable Chef Zhou seemed to disappear overnight, replaced by a gloomy stranger..."

Luo Boyi told all the abnormal situations he had observed during this period in one go.

After Leng Aotian pondered for a moment, he asked, "So, have you noticed that he has been getting closer to other people recently?" Bai Zimo also nodded in agreement, indicating that he was very concerned about the matter.

Luo Boyi pondered for a moment after hearing what he said, and recalled the scene at that time. He slowly said: "I found that the relationship between him and another kitchen helper seemed to have become very good all of a sudden. Although I didn't work in the kitchen for a long time, in the first two days after I went there, I could hear the chef blaming the kitchen helper for not being flexible enough, and the kitchen helper also complained privately that the chef was too strict. However, in recent days, I haven't heard the chef blaming him anymore. Not only that, the two of them often get together and whisper, and we all thought that the chef was imparting experience to him. Everyone is very curious why their relationship has suddenly become so good."

"Are there any other situations?" Bai Zimo continued to ask.

"Well...there is also the person who is responsible for delivering food every day." Luo Boyi told everything he knew without reservation.

Now he had guessed it. The reason why Prince Leng asked this question must be that he had already begun to suspect that the person who poisoned the food was someone in the kitchen. He really couldn't understand why neither the prince nor the princess suspected him? After all, he was the most likely person to have poisoned the food! Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel grateful, but more of it was deep self-blame. If he had reported everything he saw without hesitation, he might have been able to prevent Princess Leng from being poisoned.

"Do you still have the pastries that we gave to the princess yesterday?" Bai Zimo suddenly asked.

However, before anyone could reply, King Leng Ao suddenly stood up.

Looking at his aggressive look, it was clear that he was going to call for punishment! Bai Zimo was slightly startled at first, but then he came to his senses and followed without saying a word.

Hehe, since we are going to cause trouble, how can we do without someone like him who likes to join in the fun and stir up trouble?

Leng Aotian has never been a timid person, but the reason why he was so cautious this time was because he couldn't give Chen Tingfeng another chance to escape.

This person is cunning and scheming. If we alarm him and let him escape, there will be endless incidents like this in the future. Yuan'er and the unborn child will be in danger.

He couldn't let something like what happened last night happen again, so he had to catch Chen Tingfeng in one fell swoop this time.
