Although he was puzzled, Eunuch Wu still bowed and agreed.

“How is it?” Xuanyuan Qi suddenly asked.

Knowing that he wasn’t asking him, Eunuch Wu obediently retreated to the side.

A Demon Guard appeared in the hall. “There’s nothing unusual with the envoys of the Wu Kingdom.”

“Where’s Consort Jing’an?” he asked again.

“As soon as she returned to the residence, the princess consort personally led people to set up the mourning hall. Then, she stayed by His Highness’s side and didn’t go anywhere.”

Xuanyuan Qi frowned. “Continue watching.”

“Yes.”

Eunuch Wu almost thought that he was hallucinating. It was understandable that His Majesty had asked someone to keep an eye on the Wu Kingdom’s envoy, but why did he ask someone to keep an eye on Consort Jing’an?

“Could it be that His Majesty suspects that His Highness’s death is related to the princess consort?” he thought.

God, he knew so much. He wouldn’t be silenced, would he?

However, he no longer had the money to buy his life!

Xuanyuan Qi did not know what he was thinking. After giving the instructions, he leaned back in his dragon chair tiredly and stared at something with dark eyes.

At this moment, the eunuch reported from outside, “Your Majesty, the imperial kitchen has sent lunch over.”

Xuanyuan Qi closed his eyes.

Eunuch Wu thought for a moment and mustered his courage to persuade him. “Your Majesty, the culprit who killed His Highness hasn’t been found yet. You can’t fall first.”

Seeing that he did not object, Eunuch Wu quickly walked out and brought in the eunuch who was delivering the food.

Xuanyuan Qi did not like to be extravagant and wasteful. The people in the imperial kitchen knew this and tried their best to prepare simple meals for him.

However, today, as soon as the food box was opened, Eunuch Wu was furious.

There was a bowl of clear and bottomless porridge in the food box. There were at least a few grains of rice inside.

There was also a plate of shriveled vegetables. Not to mention that the leaves of the vegetables were still yellow, there were only a few of them in total.

The eunuch delivering the food was also dumbfounded. He hurriedly knelt down and begged for forgiveness. “I’ve been wronged. This…” The food he put into the food box was clearly not these.

Xuanyuan Qi looked over and frowned. “What’s this?”

Thinking about how he had walked away for a while after filling the food box, the eunuch hurriedly said, “This should be the wrong food box.”

Eunuch Wu reprimanded sternly, “The imperial kitchen has always only provided meals for Your Majesty and the Empress Dowager. You said that you took the wrong one. Are you saying that this was originally meant for the Empress Dowager?”

The concubines in the harem either opened a small kitchen in their own palace or were provided by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. It was impossible for them to get the wrong one.

Besides, even servants like them couldn’t eat this food, let alone the concubines in the harem.

“But I… I…” The attendant trembled and could not speak.

The palace was a dangerous place. If something went wrong, they might lose their lives.

Not to mention that he had bumped into Xuanyuan Qi when he was in a bad mood.

Annoyed to hear his explanation, Xuanyuan Qi narrowed his eyes again.

“Drag him away.” He paused when he thought of something.

“You can leave,” he said.

Eunuch Wu was surprised. “When did His Majesty become so easy to talk to?” he thought.

The eunuch kowtowed a few times. “Thank you, Your Majesty.”

Afraid that Xuanyuan Qi would retort at any time, he did not dare to delay any longer and quickly left with the food box.

“Wu Zhengde.” Xuanyuan Qi knocked on the imperial desk. “Go and investigate what food the Internal Affairs Department prepared for that girl surnamed

Shen.”

Eunuch Wu was slightly stunned. He agreed and went to do it.

As the head of the imperial palace, there were many people in the palace who wanted to curry favor with Eunuch Wu. Besides, this was not difficult to investigate.

Not long after, Eunuch Wu returned with a complicated expression.

“Say it.”

“If I’m not wrong, the person who changed Your Majesty’s food box should be Madam Song.”

Most people in the palace only curried favor with those in power. They knew why Madam Song was left in the palace, so…

“Heh.” Xuanyuan Qi sneered. “I didn’t know that there was anyone in the palace who dared to make decisions for me.’

If he did not discover it this time, what would they have done in the next five days?

“Go and find out whose idea it was. Find a reason to deal with them.

Eunuch Wu understood. No matter what the reason was, the crime couldn’t be because they mistreated Madam Song.

He could not help but think to herself that those people were really brainless. No matter what, Madam Song was still His Highness’s daughter. As long as she was not convicted, she was not someone they could bully.

“Not good, not good.” As soon as Eunuch Wu left, an eunuch ran in anxiously.

Xuanyuan Qi’s eyes suddenly turned cold.

The eunuch knelt down in fear and said, “Madam Song killed the crane that the princess gave to the Empress Dowager.”

Xuanyuan Qi was speechless..
