It was said that not much was added.
Every two days, something new was introduced for him to try fresh flavors.
Chicken porridge, the Fourth Prince had eaten it before; it's unlikely that discomfort would only show now.
Thus, suspicion arose.
"The chicken? Was it sent from the Imperial Kitchen?"
"Yes, when it arrived, the people in the small kitchen inspected it carefully. I wouldn't dare let anyone else handle the Fourth Prince's meals. I personally prepared them, there's absolutely no problem!"
The process of preparing it was fine, but that doesn't guarantee the chicken itself was fine.
Princess Consort Yi now oversees the Six Palaces. If she really intended to tamper with what was sent, it's not impossible.
So, she instructed the nanny.
"Prepare another portion of the same chicken porridge. Publicly say it's for the Fourth Prince, then place it in a secluded corner to see if any rat eats it; if so, there might be a problem."
"Yes, Your Ladyship."
