Chapter 786 Someone attacked the young master
Concubine Sun's round face turned pale instantly, and she begged, "Madam Lin..."
She really didn't want Sister Concubine Chen to know about this.
She didn't want the other person to think that she didn't even have the most basic self-control. She had clearly said that she would control her diet, but she couldn't help but eat secretly again and again...
Thinking of this, Concubine Sun became more depressed.
When she was in the palace, she was able to practice the pipa so well. She worked very hard, and the hardships involved are hard for ordinary people to imagine.
Just from this point, we can see that she is not a person without self-control. Why is she so...
Tang Luochuan frowned, and a trace of contemplation flashed in his eyes: "Let me check first, what Concubine Sun has touched and taken recently."
As the fetus grows in the womb, the pregnant woman's appetite will also increase, which is normal.
In addition, the items that Concubine Sun used on a daily basis and the pregnancy-preserving medicines she took were all strictly guarded and inspected, so ordinary people would not find any opportunity to take action.
Therefore, Concubine Sun became greedy, and neither Tang Luochuan nor Nanny Lin thought much about it.
But now it seems... Concubine Sun's greed has exceeded the normal level, and she has even broken her promises many times. It is hard to say that there is nothing fishy about it.
Zhu'er and Nanny Lin were very confused and also understood the hidden meaning of Tang Luochuan's words.
Zhu Er asked in surprise, "Doctor Tang, do you mean someone attacked the young lady?"
"But that's not right... Under the management of Concubine Chen, Zhongcui Palace is like an iron barrel. Who has such ability?"
Tang Luochuan shook his head: "This is just my guess. Whether it is true or not, we have to investigate it to know."
Concubine Sun held her stomach tightly and said, "I told you that even if I couldn't control my appetite, I would still do what I promised Concubine Chen. How could I not be able to resist eating again and again?"
"It turns out that it's very likely... someone did something to me!"
This way, everything makes sense!
Seeing Concubine Sun's pale face, Nanny Lin soothed her, "Don't panic, young lady."
"If someone really wants to harm you, this old servant and Doctor Tang will definitely find that person!"
Zhu Er also followed up and said, "Yes, young lady. We can't be sure yet, so don't scare yourself."
Lady Sun was supported by Zhu'er and sat down on the chair by the window.
Next, Tang Luochuan and Nanny Lin checked all the items in Lanyuexuan carefully.
The two searched from noon until sunset, but found nothing...
Lady Sun felt somewhat guilty: "... Doctor Tang, are you overthinking it? Maybe the truth is... I just can't control myself..."
Tang Luochuan said in a deep voice: "My lord, don't jump to conclusions."
"Although there is no problem with Lanyuexuan, the Imperial Hospital may not be sure. I will check it carefully after I return."
Lady Sun nodded and said, "Then I'll have to trouble Doctor Tang."
If this was not an accident but a man-made one, then the other party wanted her to have a large baby and a difficult birth, resulting in two deaths?
This is too scary...
Seeing that it was getting late, Tang Luochuan said, "Please be patient, Lady Sun. I will take my leave."
Concubine Sun nodded, her eyes filled with worry.
Shen Zhinian naturally knew about the big commotion in the side hall.
She called Nanny Lin over and learned the whole story from her.
Even when Tang Luochuan and Nanny Lin checked together, they found nothing unusual, and Shen Zhinian was unable to draw a conclusion for a while.
We can only wait and see if Tang Luochuan has any new discoveries in the Imperial Hospital.
At the same time, Shen Zhinian was planning another thing.
Now her position is the highest in the harem. After Concubine Zhuang was stripped of her power to assist in managing the six palaces, all power in the palace fell into the hands of Shen Zhinian.
Although she holds great power, she also faces new problems.
That is, Concubine Zhuang has been managing the six palaces for quite some time, and she has recruited countless people to serve her. If Shen Zhinian rashly uses the people left by Concubine Zhuang, she may be tricked to death one day.
But with so many managers, both big and small, it is impossible for Shen Zhinian to replace them all in a short period of time, otherwise it will definitely cause turmoil in the harem.
Moreover, if we replace those who are in the open, who knows who else is loyal to Concubine Zhuang in secret.
Of course, these days, many palace maids who originally obeyed Concubine Zhuang came to show their courtesy to Shen Zhinian after she lost power, hoping to climb up to the high branch of Concubine Chen.
Maybe they are sincere, or maybe they are just pretending and actually have some unspeakable secrets.
Shen Zhinian did not refuse outright, but handed the matter over to Xiao Mingzi.
He is well-informed and clever, and will definitely handle this matter brilliantly.
After all, those who come to seek refuge, whether they are good or bad, always have their value.
What Shen Zhinian needs to do is to turn all their usefulness into something that is beneficial to himself!
What she has to do now is -
Replace Chen Yangming, the head of the Imperial Household Department who was loyal to Concubine Zhuang, with one of our own!
Shen Zhinian can take her time with other places, but as for a place as important as the Imperial Household Department, she must take control of it as soon as possible to feel at ease!
However...even if Shen Zhinian is the noble Concubine Chen, she cannot replace the hardworking head of the Imperial Household Department for no reason, otherwise she will inevitably be criticized.
It is said that she could not wait to eliminate dissidents as soon as she gained power. Is she going to replace all the palace managers with her own people? That is too ambitious!
If such rumors were to reach the emperor's ears, it would not be a good thing for Shen Zhinian, and she certainly would not give anyone an advantage.
Handan said: "…Madam, after some investigation, I found that Chen Yangming is very cunning. It is not easy to find his faults."
"Especially after Concubine Zhuang was demoted, he became even more cautious and never made any mistakes."
"No wonder he can follow Concubine Zhuang..."
Shen Zhinian narrowed his eyes and snorted coldly: "Isn't this easy? If there are no loopholes, let's create them for him!"
"You go..."
After listening to this, Handan and Fuqiu looked at each other and said in unison: "Your Majesty is very wise!"
"We must make sure Chen Yangming pays the price this time! Otherwise, what if he is loyal to Concubine Zhuang and controls the Ministry of Internal Affairs and does something bad to us in secret one day?"
Shen Zhinian nodded: "Go ahead and do it."
"Slave, you obey!"
After Handan and Fuqiu left, she continued to handle palace affairs with a book in hand.
The sun gradually set.
I don't know how much time passed before Handan came in and said, "My queen, Xiao Huizi wants to see you."
Shen Zhinian put down the account book, picked up the teacup and took a sip: "Let him in."
"Yes."
After entering the inner room, Xiao Huizi bowed respectfully and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, His Majesty said that we should have dinner at Zhongcui Palace tonight."
