Chapter 302 The Emperor Was Poisoned!
There was a brief explanation of the New Year's Eve Dinner.
It was not just this dinner. According to the rules that Darui had since they established the dynasty, a royal dinner was divided into a front one and a back one. The front one would be the Emperor hosting the governmental officials. The back one would be the Empress hosting the peeresses.
But the two Empresses were fighting power. Neither of them was willing to stay in the back to host peeresses and let the other go with the Emperor to get greeted and respected by the officials.
Therefore, after several battles, they decided to compromise and let everybody have dinner together!
Of course, the men and women were still divided. Looking down from the top, men were on the left and women were on the right.
At this moment, Qiu Yelan was not beside her husband. She could only look at him through the crowd while feeling anxious secretly.

Although many important officials and peeresses felt that it was too much to regard all people in the Hall as suspects, if all the officials wanted to kill the emperor, the Chu Family couldn't still sit in the imperial chair!In particular, the two empresses also asked men and women to take off their clothes and get checked in the side hall or behind the screen. That was total humiliation!But Empress Dowager Gu and Empress Jiang took the lead in asking several respected ladies to go to the side hall to watch the palace servants undress them and check whether there were any poison things and traces. After that, people had nothing to say, because there was no special treatment for the Emperor's mother and wife, not to mention the courtiers.Naturally, this was because the Empress Dowager's party and the Empress's party did not trust each other.The Empress's party suspected that this was arranged by the Empress Dowager's party, and

Seeing that she woke up, Jiang Yashuang simply bent down and hugged her. After a while, he whispered, "Fortunately you are OK."Qiu Yelan noticed that his voice was a little hoarse, and she knew that he must have been very anxious and was shut out of the palace that night. She immediately moved and let him sit down on the bed. "It's OK. Don't worry about it!" She said softly, leaning on his shoulder.The couple hugged each other for a while, and their emotions finally calmed down. Then Qiu Yelan asked, "What did Dai Cong mean about the witness?""I arranged the witness." Jiang Yashuang sighed wearily, "I wanted to frame Empress Dowager Gu and prove my innocence by the way. As a result, such a big thing happened last night. Who could take care of such twists and turns?"That was true. Compared with the incident that the Emperor was almost poisoned to death in front of the civil and military officials and concubines of Imperial Harem

Jiang Yashuang understood why Zhuang Mo said all that. It was true that he was worried about Empress Jiang's future. But the thing he really wanted to know was whether the Empress' party planned to frame Empress Dowager's party by poisoning the Emperor.Otherwise, he wouldn't add "If Empress Dowager's party isn't found guilty, she'll bring it up again"."Now my aunt and Empress Dowager are investigating it together. I think the one behind it will soon give himself away!" Jiang Yashuang said with a smile.Zhuang Mo realized it meant that the Jiang Family wasn't planning to do so at that moment. That was what he anticipated. After all, finding the culprit at that time wasn't just for a political reason. It was also because Empress Dowager Gu and Empress Jiang were worried about themselves. Under this circumstance, even if they were going to smear each other, they would do it after they found the real culprit.Otherwise, if the culpri

Madame Tao looked around and every servant left.Seeing this, Qiu Yelan couldn't help but think, "Do you want me to do something like persuading County Princess Duanrou to marry the Duke of Puyang again?"The Jiang Family had done enough bad things!When she was thinking, she suddenly heard Madame Tao asking, "Before the Lunar New Year's Eve Dinner, you saw someone tossing something underneath the flower tree near you and Fubing. Do you still remember what it looked like?"Did she want to ask this?Qiu Yelan was relieved. She said, "I don't really remember that. Because I heard the sound first and looked back. At that time, it was already underneath the tree. It was snowy, windy, and dark. I didn't see it.""Didn't Fubing say you didn't see it clearly and it was a reflection of the snow?" Madame Tao thought for a

After all, it was not Qiu Yelan's duty to find out the regicide. She talked with Jiang Yashuang for a while and went to the third branch to help when it was the time. Before finding the criminal of poisoning the emperor, it was really inappropriate to take the account of "Qingfeng Ji" to find trouble with the Empress Dowager's party.But precautions averted perils. There would be a time when people used it. Anyway, finding out the king killer didn't need the whole Jiang family.Therefore, most of the daughters-in-law and granddaughters-in-law of the Jiang Family had to continue to do business in the first lunar month apart from visiting friends and relatives.On the way to the third branch, Qiu Yelan couldn't help complaining to her maids. She said, "I read the accounts everyday, and I feel like I'm going to throw up. I went to have a look yesterday, and there was still a room of accounts to check. When will it end?"

As usual, Madame Zhang walked all the wives out on behalf of the third branch.When she opened the door, she saw Jiang Yashuang waiting under the stairs like that from a couple of days ago.Because it was snowing, he had an umbrella. He didn't ask Jiang Tan to hold it but held it by himself. Jiang Tan stood in the near distance, wearing a raincoat. Both of them were tall men. In the snow, the way they stood reminded people of all the fine and elegant trees described in the books.It was already dark. The lanterns that hanged in front of the door of the third branch looked vague in the snow and wind. Under the dim light, Jiang Yashuang who heard the noise turned around. His face was like fine jade. His eyebrows were dark like ink and his eyes were shining like stars. When he smiled, his face lit up and made the red plum blossoming in the near distance look dark.Such a handsome husband was also so considerate.Madame Zh
