Chapter 341 Water Source
Chapter 341 Water Source
"Your Majesty, Lady Lan stayed at Concubine Xian's place for just one night, and this morning she came to me and said she wanted to return to the palace.
When I asked her if she felt uncomfortable staying with the virtuous concubine or if she was feeling unwell, she turned her face away and did not answer, only saying that she wanted to return to the palace.
I had no choice but to call Concubine Xian to question her, and she simply said that it had nothing to do with her. "
Shen Ningyue sighed and rested her head on Qin Zhi's back, feeling very annoyed.
If I had known earlier, I should have asked His Majesty to keep Concubine Xian and Noble Lady Lan in the palace.
"The two pregnant women are both meritorious officials who are bearing children for Your Majesty, so I cannot speak harshly.
I patiently sought out Lan Guiren's maidservant Yi Ze and questioned her. Yi Ze said that Concubine Xian's hospitality was very thoughtful and careful, and that Lan Guiren did not have any conflicts with Concubine Xian.
But Concubine Lan started crying in the middle of the night and no amount of comforting her was of any use.
As soon as the sun rose that day, Concubine Lan came to see me. I guess Concubine Lan didn't know what to do and bumped into something, or maybe she had a nightmare. "
Concubine Lan was pregnant, so she shouldn't have seen blood.
But for a skirt, hundreds of beautiful and rare birds were killed, and it was all wasted.
Hundreds of birds were also captured alive.
Shen Ningyue felt that if she really offended someone and harmed herself and her child, she deserved it.
But as the queen, she couldn't just ignore her.
"Ah."
Qin Zhi nodded nonchalantly and shot the arrow into the center of the target in the tent.
The weather was bad today, so after finishing his government affairs, he had no choice but to shoot at targets for fun in his tent.
"I asked someone to find the imperial physician to see Lady Lan, but she didn't want to be married, so she just sat in my tent and cried silently.
If she continues crying like this, it will be bad for the baby in her belly. I really can't make up my mind.
Your Majesty, would you like to go and see her?"
Seeing that Qin Zhiai ignored her, Shen Ningyue went straight to the point and asked.
During the hunting, she had no say on whether Concubine Lan could return to the palace, but she had said that if Concubine Lan lost her child and her life, it would be none of her business.
"There are still ten days left before the hunt. Doesn't she know?"
Qin Zhi covered his eyes with a black band and pointed the bow at the target.
"Forget it, I'll have someone arrange for someone to send her back immediately."
As soon as the words fell, the bowstring sounded softly, and the wooden arrow hit the center of the target.
"Your Majesty, this is amazing!"
"Go."
"Yes, Your Majesty, I will take my leave."
Qin Zhi took off the laces and said, "Someone, go check what's going on."
Nightmare? He didn't believe it.
Could it be that Fu Mengli and Alanruo reached some kind of deal?
Have no idea.
------------------------------
"Your Majesty, Concubine Lan has already boarded the carriage back to the palace."
Qingxue reported.
"Madam, what method did you use to drive her away? You are so powerful, Madam."
Meihua couldn't help but jump for joy.
"What can I do? What can I do? I don't want to stay with her, and she is impatient with me, so I just go back."
Fu Mengli said lightly.
"Speaking of which, the palace has an abundant water supply and is heavily guarded. No unauthorized persons are allowed to approach. It is very safe and reliable. Is the water we use for hunting guaranteed?"
"Why do you suddenly ask this, madam?"
Meihua tilted her head and blinked.
"I feel that this water seems to be even sweeter than the drinking water in the palace."
"Have it?"
Meihua scratched his head.
Qingxue thought for a while.
"Your Majesty's servants don't know, but the water used by the ladies is boiled from the well that was newly dug near the camp."
"Well water? Aren't you afraid someone might poison it?"
Fu Mengli frowned.
"No, that won't happen. There is a group of transparent little fish at the bottom of the well. If the water is poisoned, it will be discovered immediately."
