Chapter 628 Destroying People’s Minds (5000 words)
Kunning Palace.
Chen Man doesn't know what's going on outside, nor what the situation outside is like now. She is immersed in her own world and is busy every day.
She ground the selected medicinal materials and spices one by one, and made them into various kinds of incense, which she used for herself and for Mai Dong, and also asked Mai Dong to send two jars to each concubine in the palace.
The concubines are all happy, they have had it before, and know that the incense made by the queen is an excellent thing.Some of those fragrances calm the nerves, some cheer the spirit, and some relieve pain... Not only are the effects good, but they can also fill the room with fragrance, and even the clothes, skirts and hair on the temples will be dyed with fragrance.
Chen Man even made two types of incense for Emperor Qingming.
Emperor Qingming was overjoyed, but his cautious temper caused troubles. Finally, he secretly asked the imperial physician to check it out. The imperial physician said that the medicinal materials and spices used in the incense are all refreshing and there is nothing wrong with it.
Only then did Emperor Qingming feel relieved, no matter whether he was in the Imperial Study Room, the Qianqing Palace, or his study room in the Kunning Palace, he would light the incense that Chen Man gave him.
The incense has an excellent aroma, as long as it is made by Aman, it is good no matter what.
Emperor Qingming's good mood was obvious to all in the court and harem, and the emperor seemed to be a different person.
But the good times didn't last long, and after only a few days, Emperor Qingming returned to his dark and ruthless nature, and even intensified.In the court hall, if the courtiers made an inappropriate performance or made a mistake in their actions, at the least they would be smashed by the memorial, and at the worst they would be sentenced to prison.
Everyone didn't understand why, and for a while, people were panicked.
All the concubines stayed behind closed doors, for fear that they might accidentally touch the emperor's head, and lose their lives.
Chen Man sat quietly in the bustle of the palace gate, waiting for Emperor Qingming to come down.
The tall armchair made her body look petite and frail, and the blooming flowers made her face whiter than paper.
She no longer had the strength to stand and wait for him.
Emperor Qingming looked at Chen Man from a distance, and he watched her life slowly disappearing like a wisp of smoke, which would be blown away by the wind at any time.
A string in his heart was always tense, and manic violence was clamoring again.
Aman was already close to him, and all the good things were within reach, but when he was about to touch him, he was moving away from him.There was nothing he could do, he couldn't stop Aman's life from dying.
Emperor Qingming showed a smile, "Ayao."
Chen Man supported Mai Dong's hand and stood up slowly, "Your Majesty."
Her blessing was stopped by Emperor Qingming, "Ayao doesn't need to salute me. You don't have to come out and wait for me in the future. Anyway, there is nothing wrong with the court recently. I have already told the prince to let him come to supervise the country."
Chen Man sighed softly, "It's the concubine who hurt the emperor. How can a majestic emperor be confined to the harem every day."
"It's nothing, I don't care about those."
Emperor Qingming helped her to walk into the palace, "Ayao, you still have to try to drink that soup. The imperial doctor said that you are suffering from a severe loss of energy and blood, and you must drink a tonic soup."
Chen Man responded softly, "Okay. The concubine drinks."
She agreed so, and tried hard to drink the soup that made her sick.
But still, the decoction would be vomited out in its entirety.
Repeatedly drink, repeatedly spit.
"Ayao, stop drinking."
"Ayao, stop drinking."
……
Emperor Qingming said repeatedly, feeling almost out of control.
Chen Man froze and pushed him away suddenly, a mouthful of blood gushed out, and she fell like a kite with a broken string.
"Ayao!"
Emperor Qingming took two steps forward to support her, kneeling on the ground, "Ayao!"
After a long time, Chen Man weakly opened her eyes, "Your Majesty, this concubine is about to die..."
"You won't die." Emperor Qing Ming's lips trembled, and he reached out to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth.
Chen Man chuckled, "I know that I won't live long... It's just a matter of time."
Confusion and uneasiness flashed across her face, "I'm really afraid, I don't even remember who I am, will Lord Yan accept me... Will I become a lonely ghost..."
Her words were like a sharp knife piercing Emperor Qingming's heart, and he began to regret, regretting not letting Master Xuanzhi to treat her illness.
If you are worried about Master Xuanzhi leaking the secret, then design a plan to get rid of him.No matter how powerful Master Xuanzhi's martial arts are, there are always areas beyond his reach.
Emperor Qingming was so remorseful that he comforted Chen Man, "Don't be afraid, I'll be with you. I'm the Son of Heaven, and you will be safe and sound if you avoid ghosts and gods."
Chen Man smiled wryly, "Gods and Buddhas backed away, and my concubines were ghosts at that time, so I'm afraid they won't be able to get close to the emperor..."
She spat out another mouthful of blood while talking, the hesitation and despair in her eyes made people worry.
Emperor Qingming thought that he was the only one Aman had known in the past ten years, and he was the only one who could be trusted after waking up this time. If he went to the underworld, he might not know anyone, and he might not even be able to find his home. .
He never thought that his selfishness would lead Aman to such a miserable end.He has always firmly believed that they will grow old together, reconciled and beautiful...
The rationality in Emperor Qingming's heart was losing control, and the emotions of destroying everything were clamoring.
"If you die, I will accompany you. If you become a lonely ghost, I will accompany you to be that lonely ghost..."
Chen Man was stunned, and looked at him in disbelief, "Your Majesty..."
Emperor Qingming's gaze was firm, and he said solemnly, "I am the Son of Heaven, and I keep my word. If you die, I will accompany you."
"Don't be afraid, I will always be with you."
There was a smile in Chen Man's eyes, and her heart seemed to be at ease.
"it is good."
As she spoke, she slowly closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep with a pale face.
Emperor Qingming's heart ached, he picked her up and put her on the couch in the hall.
Mai Dong sent people to invite the imperial physician, and after the imperial physician diagnosed the pulse, they all knelt down and pleaded guilty.
"The emperor forgives the sin, the queen can't take the decoction, and the ministers are incompetent..."
They are helpless, and they don't have the ability to rob someone from Hades.They also wondered, it was fine before, why is it not working anymore?
Emperor Qingming's heart was about to burst, and an "incompetent" imperial doctor died under his sword.
-
Jin Wangfu.
Zhao Chengyuan went straight into Su Bai's yard.
Su Bai just took off the guard uniform of the Imperial Forest Army, and threw the clothes aside.
His expression was not good, and he complained to Zhao Chengyuan who came in, "In the future, you still don't want to find me for this kind of errand in the palace. If it wasn't for the cover of Chengjun King, then Emperor Qingming was restless, and I'm afraid I will confess my little life there." Already!"
Thinking of the cold look in Emperor Qingming's eyes when he took the opportunity to get close to Emperor Qingming today, Su Bai couldn't help shivering.
Zhao Chengyuan ignored Su Bai's complaint, sat down in the seat above and asked, "Did you find anything?"
In the past few days, news about Chen Man has been coming out of the palace, and Chen Man has never stepped out of Kunning Palace except waiting for Emperor Qingming every day.The only thing she did was to distribute incense to the concubines in the palace, and even to Emperor Qingming.
As for Emperor Qingming, his behavior these days has been extremely abnormal.Just like what the prince said in the previous life, irritable and irritable, like a trapped animal.
Although it was possible that Chen Man's condition had worsened, he still couldn't help being suspicious because of such a drastic change in just a few days.
He managed to get the incense used by Emperor Qingming and his concubines, and showed Su Bai that it was impossible to get the incense used in the Queen's Palace.
Su Bai is good at poison, but he can't see anything wrong with it.
He just said suspiciously, "The incense used by Emperor Qingming has a few spices and herbs that are quite strange, but if it's wrong, it's not. With them, the effect of the incense is indeed better, and the fragrance is also stronger. It's weird."
So Su Bai dressed up as a guard of the imperial forest army, entered the inner palace with the cooperation of King Chengjun, and often patrolled around the Kunning Palace.
Su Bai sat across from Zhao Chengyuan, restrained his expression, and looked at Zhao Chengyuan seriously, "The empress is poisoning Emperor Qingming."
"To be exact, she is poisoning herself and Emperor Qingming together. This poison will make people irritable and mentally disturbed. After a long time, it is no wonder that Emperor Qingming is not crazy."
Zhao Chengyuan's heart sank, and he asked, "Is there something wrong with the incense?"
"It's about the incense. Some medicinal materials are fine to use alone, but if they are mixed together, they are poisons that destroy people's minds. The incense on the queen's body and the incense on Emperor Qingming's body meet, and this is the case. Effect."
Su Bai's eyes were full of admiration.
You must know that the queen was confined in the Kunning Palace, and her access to herbs was limited. Most of the herbs and spices she had access to were mild, not highly toxic, and would not easily kill her.But she can use the most common medicinal materials to skillfully formulate a poison that kills people invisible.
Zhao Chengyuan asked, "The imperial physician goes in and out of Kunning Palace every day, why can't he find out?"
Su Bai sneered, "That group of quack doctors can say that they are proficient in medicine after they can memorize a few medical books. There are thousands of medicinal materials in the world, and their mutual generation and restraint are ever-changing. They are far from mastering it."
Su Bai thought of the maid named Mai Dong next to the queen, and said, "The queen's power is that she can not only poison herself and the emperor, but also protect Mai Dong who is in the same room from the poison. The sachet carried by Mai Dong, the incense inside can detoxify."
In this way, as long as Ophiopogon japonicus is in good condition, Emperor Qingming will not easily find out that there is something wrong with the incense, and will not be suspicious of the queen's incense.
Zhao Chengyuan also admired Chen Man's ability. After all, it's not that he didn't think about poisoning Emperor Qingming, but he couldn't do it.Emperor Qingming had a deep scheming mind, and the eunuchs would test the poison on the things he took in, and he was only willing to use agarwood for incense.
Chen Man was the only one who could poison Emperor Qingming and make him defenseless.
Emperor Qingming's insanity in his previous life was probably caused by the empress.
Su Baiyouzi sighed there, "Looking at the way the queen poisoned me, no matter how I look at it, I feel that she is from the same sect as me. Do you think she is my senior sister? But the old Taoist priest never said that he still has such a An apprentice with background."
"You said the Empress is fine, why did you poison Emperor Qingming? I believe that the Empress Dowager poisoned Emperor Qingming, but the Empress...is really confusing."
"Hey, talk to me."
Su Bo said dissatisfied, "My mouth is dry, why don't you say a word?"
Zhao Chengyuan said, "She is Chen Man, Chen Man of the Chen Family in Xiangping Mansion. Chen Man learned Buddhism and medicine from Master Xuanzhi since she was a child. It is not surprising that she met Daoist Invincible."
Su Bai stood up abruptly, and said in shock, "Chen Man... Madam Dingguo?"
"Yes." Zhao Chengyuan said, "That's why she can't die. How she survives depends on you."
Su Bai has not recovered from the shock.
Only now did he understand why Zhao Chengyuan cared so much about the queen.He originally thought it was to find a breakthrough from the empress to deal a fatal blow to Emperor Qingming.
He even suspected for a while that the queen was instigated by Zhao Chengyuan to do these things.
It turned out not to be, it turned out that Zhao Chengyuan was trying to save his mother-in-law.
"This... this... that bastard!"
Su Bai jumped up and scolded Emperor Qingming, then his face darkened suddenly, and he stared at Zhao Chengyuan, "Are you going to let me into the palace again?"
Zhao Chengyuan said, "Keep an eye on the queen, don't let her get into trouble. You are good at poison, good at medicine, good at disguising, quick-witted, and strong in martial arts. No one is more suitable for this matter than you."
Su Bai snorted coldly, "Don't put a high hat on me, I'm afraid I won't live to the day when you will succeed."
Zhao Chengyuan was silent, drinking tea with downcast eyes.
This is dangerous, and it cannot be done by coercion.If Su Bo refuses to do it, then he has to go in person.
Ordinary people's disguises can't fool Emperor Qingming's eyes, especially if they often appear in his sight.
Su Bai was afraid of his appearance, so he might as well force him with a knife on his neck.
He snorted, "All right, all right, I'll go. If it wasn't for Princess Jin's face, I wouldn't take this risk."
He still has several calligraphy and paintings of Master Xuanzhi in his hand, all of which were "accidentally" forgotten by Princess Jin with him.In fact, the concubine of Jin has more friends than the king of Jin.
He is not the kind of person who does not know good from bad.
-
Wu Jian is here.
He went to Duke Dingguo's mansion but did not find King Jin, so he came to King Jin's mansion again.
He saluted Zhao Chengyuan with a smile, "My lord, the emperor just got some good things, and I asked my servant to bring them to you."
Zhao Chengyuan glanced at the group of young eunuchs following behind him, everyone was holding a red lacquer tray in their hands, covered with red silk, it might be some kind of rare treasure.
Behind the eunuchs were two handsome guards.
Zhao Chengyuan said in a low voice, "Brother Huang has repeatedly rewarded you generously, but this king may not be able to afford it. You should take it back."
Wu Jian smiled apologetically, wondering, "This... this... my lord, if I take these rewards back intact, I'm afraid I won't be able to save my life."
Zhao Chengyuan said, "Then tell me, what is your purpose here?"
Wu Jian put his hands down by his sides, bowed and smiled, "Your Highness is wise. That's right, the Emperor asked, that pill... can your Highness take a single pill?"
Zhao Chengyuan already knew that Chen Man's current situation was not optimistic, and she urgently needed a pill by her side to keep her life alive.
Let's listen to Su Bo's words, the smell of medicine wafting over Kunning Palace every day clearly contains Shiquan Dabu Decoction.After so many years, why does she still need this great tonic medicinal material?
Zhao Chengyuan pursed his lips, but did not answer Wu Jian's question.
"The emperor said, if you have any request, please ask, the emperor will definitely fulfill your request." Wu Jian stepped forward, saluted again, looked up at him slightly and said, "My lord, you are a smart person... Your majesty You know how to value the queen."
Zhao Chengyuan's expression darkened, "Are you threatening me?"
Wu Jian hurriedly knelt down, "I dare not!"
Zhao Chengyuan said in a low voice, "I still have two pills in my hand. After one pill is distributed, the other pill can't be given anyway."
Wu Jian was overjoyed, and responded repeatedly, "Yes, yes! Thank you, my lord, for caring about the servants!"
Zhao Chengyuan glanced at him coldly, "Come with me."
Wu Jian hurriedly got up, and quickly moved to catch up with King Jin. He didn't forget to turn around and tell the little eunuchs, "You guys wait here!"
The little eunuchs stood still, but one of the two guards stepped up.
Ye Chang limped forward to stop him, "Your Majesty is going to the inner house, not you, a guard, can enter."
The guard's eyes were cold, "The emperor's life is hard to do."
Zhao Chengyuan turned his head and said, "Ye Chang, let him follow."
Ye Chang snorted unconvinced, and lowered his arms to let the guards pass by.
He limped again and walked up to the little eunuchs, looking at them coldly, "Don't reward our prince, just don't come here again in the future."
The little eunuchs have never had such a cold face, but they also know that people in the Jin Palace can't afford to offend them, and they are stunned for a while, not knowing how to react.
Cheng Han was kinder than Ye Chang, and said to them, "Leave the reward to me. Manager Wu will be back in a while."
He took the trays one by one and handed them to the servants behind him. At the same time, each little eunuch had a heavy silver ingot in his sleeve.
The little eunuchs followed the manager when they went out to do errands, and they were all overjoyed to receive such a small reward.
Cheng Han then kindly invited them to the wing room for tea, "Guard Ye loves my master so much, it's inevitable that his words won't please you, father-in-law, please be more careful, and don't let the matter out today."
The little eunuchs didn't show it on their faces, but they were already happy in their hearts. They were stupid to tell this matter.
They understood that the emperor was clearly here to rescue the life-saving pill from Jin Wang, so it's no wonder that the people in Jin Wang's mansion are happy.
Cheng Han went out with a smile again, and asked with a smile on the guard who was guarding the door and refused to enter the house, "I don't know what your name is?"
"Sang Yuan."
Ye Chang folded his chest and looked at him, "You are Sang Yuan? I heard that every year the Yulin Army takes the school exam, and you can get the first place. Do you dare to compete with me?"
Sang Yuan kept a cold face and ignored him.
"Why, look down on people?"
Ye Changzheng drew his sword and stabbed him mercilessly.It can be seen that some of them are somewhat resentful towards the emperor.
Sang Yuan had no choice but to draw his sword to fight.
The two fought more and more fiercely, and it was difficult to tell the winner for a while, so they unknowingly shifted the place of fighting to the back of the wing.
Sang Yuan suddenly felt a gust of wind blowing behind him, and before he could turn his head, he received a solid palm on the back of his neck. Before he fainted, he saw a face exactly like his own, looking at him with a smile.
Zhao Chengyuan went back to Yongxi Hall to take a pill, and handed it to Wu Jian who was waiting outside the courtyard, and said in a low voice, "Boss Wu told the emperor on behalf of the king, I still have a pill in my hand, and I want to protect it." It's not easy to be foolproof, and next month, Princess Jin will be three months pregnant, and I will leave for Jinzhou."
Wu Jian was careful, "The slave will tell the emperor..."
Zhao Chengyuan turned around and returned to Yongxi Hall.
Wu Jian and the guard behind him looked at each other helplessly, carefully put away the porcelain bottle, followed Luo Ping out of the inner courtyard, joined the people from the outer courtyard, and hurriedly left Jinwang Mansion.
I wrote [-] words in one breath, and there are no chapters. It may be tiring to read. . .
(End of this chapter)
Kunning Palace.
Chen Man doesn't know what's going on outside, nor what the situation outside is like now. She is immersed in her own world and is busy every day.
She ground the selected medicinal materials and spices one by one, and made them into various kinds of incense, which she used for herself and for Mai Dong, and also asked Mai Dong to send two jars to each concubine in the palace.
The concubines are all happy, they have had it before, and know that the incense made by the queen is an excellent thing.Some of those fragrances calm the nerves, some cheer the spirit, and some relieve pain... Not only are the effects good, but they can also fill the room with fragrance, and even the clothes, skirts and hair on the temples will be dyed with fragrance.
Chen Man even made two types of incense for Emperor Qingming.
Emperor Qingming was overjoyed, but his cautious temper caused troubles. Finally, he secretly asked the imperial physician to check it out. The imperial physician said that the medicinal materials and spices used in the incense are all refreshing and there is nothing wrong with it.
Only then did Emperor Qingming feel relieved, no matter whether he was in the Imperial Study Room, the Qianqing Palace, or his study room in the Kunning Palace, he would light the incense that Chen Man gave him.
The incense has an excellent aroma, as long as it is made by Aman, it is good no matter what.
Emperor Qingming's good mood was obvious to all in the court and harem, and the emperor seemed to be a different person.
But the good times didn't last long, and after only a few days, Emperor Qingming returned to his dark and ruthless nature, and even intensified.In the court hall, if the courtiers made an inappropriate performance or made a mistake in their actions, at the least they would be smashed by the memorial, and at the worst they would be sentenced to prison.
Everyone didn't understand why, and for a while, people were panicked.
All the concubines stayed behind closed doors, for fear that they might accidentally touch the emperor's head, and lose their lives.
Chen Man sat quietly in the bustle of the palace gate, waiting for Emperor Qingming to come down.
The tall armchair made her body look petite and frail, and the blooming flowers made her face whiter than paper.
She no longer had the strength to stand and wait for him.
Emperor Qingming looked at Chen Man from a distance, and he watched her life slowly disappearing like a wisp of smoke, which would be blown away by the wind at any time.
A string in his heart was always tense, and manic violence was clamoring again.
Aman was already close to him, and all the good things were within reach, but when he was about to touch him, he was moving away from him.There was nothing he could do, he couldn't stop Aman's life from dying.
Emperor Qingming showed a smile, "Ayao."
Chen Man supported Mai Dong's hand and stood up slowly, "Your Majesty."
Her blessing was stopped by Emperor Qingming, "Ayao doesn't need to salute me. You don't have to come out and wait for me in the future. Anyway, there is nothing wrong with the court recently. I have already told the prince to let him come to supervise the country."
Chen Man sighed softly, "It's the concubine who hurt the emperor. How can a majestic emperor be confined to the harem every day."
"It's nothing, I don't care about those."
Emperor Qingming helped her to walk into the palace, "Ayao, you still have to try to drink that soup. The imperial doctor said that you are suffering from a severe loss of energy and blood, and you must drink a tonic soup."
Chen Man responded softly, "Okay. The concubine drinks."
She agreed so, and tried hard to drink the soup that made her sick.
But still, the decoction would be vomited out in its entirety.
Repeatedly drink, repeatedly spit.
"Ayao, stop drinking."
"Ayao, stop drinking."
……
Emperor Qingming said repeatedly, feeling almost out of control.
Chen Man froze and pushed him away suddenly, a mouthful of blood gushed out, and she fell like a kite with a broken string.
"Ayao!"
Emperor Qingming took two steps forward to support her, kneeling on the ground, "Ayao!"
After a long time, Chen Man weakly opened her eyes, "Your Majesty, this concubine is about to die..."
"You won't die." Emperor Qing Ming's lips trembled, and he reached out to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth.
Chen Man chuckled, "I know that I won't live long... It's just a matter of time."
Confusion and uneasiness flashed across her face, "I'm really afraid, I don't even remember who I am, will Lord Yan accept me... Will I become a lonely ghost..."
Her words were like a sharp knife piercing Emperor Qingming's heart, and he began to regret, regretting not letting Master Xuanzhi to treat her illness.
If you are worried about Master Xuanzhi leaking the secret, then design a plan to get rid of him.No matter how powerful Master Xuanzhi's martial arts are, there are always areas beyond his reach.
Emperor Qingming was so remorseful that he comforted Chen Man, "Don't be afraid, I'll be with you. I'm the Son of Heaven, and you will be safe and sound if you avoid ghosts and gods."
Chen Man smiled wryly, "Gods and Buddhas backed away, and my concubines were ghosts at that time, so I'm afraid they won't be able to get close to the emperor..."
She spat out another mouthful of blood while talking, the hesitation and despair in her eyes made people worry.
Emperor Qingming thought that he was the only one Aman had known in the past ten years, and he was the only one who could be trusted after waking up this time. If he went to the underworld, he might not know anyone, and he might not even be able to find his home. .
He never thought that his selfishness would lead Aman to such a miserable end.He has always firmly believed that they will grow old together, reconciled and beautiful...
The rationality in Emperor Qingming's heart was losing control, and the emotions of destroying everything were clamoring.
"If you die, I will accompany you. If you become a lonely ghost, I will accompany you to be that lonely ghost..."
Chen Man was stunned, and looked at him in disbelief, "Your Majesty..."
Emperor Qingming's gaze was firm, and he said solemnly, "I am the Son of Heaven, and I keep my word. If you die, I will accompany you."
"Don't be afraid, I will always be with you."
There was a smile in Chen Man's eyes, and her heart seemed to be at ease.
"it is good."
As she spoke, she slowly closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep with a pale face.
Emperor Qingming's heart ached, he picked her up and put her on the couch in the hall.
Mai Dong sent people to invite the imperial physician, and after the imperial physician diagnosed the pulse, they all knelt down and pleaded guilty.
"The emperor forgives the sin, the queen can't take the decoction, and the ministers are incompetent..."
They are helpless, and they don't have the ability to rob someone from Hades.They also wondered, it was fine before, why is it not working anymore?
Emperor Qingming's heart was about to burst, and an "incompetent" imperial doctor died under his sword.
-
Jin Wangfu.
Zhao Chengyuan went straight into Su Bai's yard.
Su Bai just took off the guard uniform of the Imperial Forest Army, and threw the clothes aside.
His expression was not good, and he complained to Zhao Chengyuan who came in, "In the future, you still don't want to find me for this kind of errand in the palace. If it wasn't for the cover of Chengjun King, then Emperor Qingming was restless, and I'm afraid I will confess my little life there." Already!"
Thinking of the cold look in Emperor Qingming's eyes when he took the opportunity to get close to Emperor Qingming today, Su Bai couldn't help shivering.
Zhao Chengyuan ignored Su Bai's complaint, sat down in the seat above and asked, "Did you find anything?"
In the past few days, news about Chen Man has been coming out of the palace, and Chen Man has never stepped out of Kunning Palace except waiting for Emperor Qingming every day.The only thing she did was to distribute incense to the concubines in the palace, and even to Emperor Qingming.
As for Emperor Qingming, his behavior these days has been extremely abnormal.Just like what the prince said in the previous life, irritable and irritable, like a trapped animal.
Although it was possible that Chen Man's condition had worsened, he still couldn't help being suspicious because of such a drastic change in just a few days.
He managed to get the incense used by Emperor Qingming and his concubines, and showed Su Bai that it was impossible to get the incense used in the Queen's Palace.
Su Bai is good at poison, but he can't see anything wrong with it.
He just said suspiciously, "The incense used by Emperor Qingming has a few spices and herbs that are quite strange, but if it's wrong, it's not. With them, the effect of the incense is indeed better, and the fragrance is also stronger. It's weird."
So Su Bai dressed up as a guard of the imperial forest army, entered the inner palace with the cooperation of King Chengjun, and often patrolled around the Kunning Palace.
Su Bai sat across from Zhao Chengyuan, restrained his expression, and looked at Zhao Chengyuan seriously, "The empress is poisoning Emperor Qingming."
"To be exact, she is poisoning herself and Emperor Qingming together. This poison will make people irritable and mentally disturbed. After a long time, it is no wonder that Emperor Qingming is not crazy."
Zhao Chengyuan's heart sank, and he asked, "Is there something wrong with the incense?"
"It's about the incense. Some medicinal materials are fine to use alone, but if they are mixed together, they are poisons that destroy people's minds. The incense on the queen's body and the incense on Emperor Qingming's body meet, and this is the case. Effect."
Su Bai's eyes were full of admiration.
You must know that the queen was confined in the Kunning Palace, and her access to herbs was limited. Most of the herbs and spices she had access to were mild, not highly toxic, and would not easily kill her.But she can use the most common medicinal materials to skillfully formulate a poison that kills people invisible.
Zhao Chengyuan asked, "The imperial physician goes in and out of Kunning Palace every day, why can't he find out?"
Su Bai sneered, "That group of quack doctors can say that they are proficient in medicine after they can memorize a few medical books. There are thousands of medicinal materials in the world, and their mutual generation and restraint are ever-changing. They are far from mastering it."
Su Bai thought of the maid named Mai Dong next to the queen, and said, "The queen's power is that she can not only poison herself and the emperor, but also protect Mai Dong who is in the same room from the poison. The sachet carried by Mai Dong, the incense inside can detoxify."
In this way, as long as Ophiopogon japonicus is in good condition, Emperor Qingming will not easily find out that there is something wrong with the incense, and will not be suspicious of the queen's incense.
Zhao Chengyuan also admired Chen Man's ability. After all, it's not that he didn't think about poisoning Emperor Qingming, but he couldn't do it.Emperor Qingming had a deep scheming mind, and the eunuchs would test the poison on the things he took in, and he was only willing to use agarwood for incense.
Chen Man was the only one who could poison Emperor Qingming and make him defenseless.
Emperor Qingming's insanity in his previous life was probably caused by the empress.
Su Baiyouzi sighed there, "Looking at the way the queen poisoned me, no matter how I look at it, I feel that she is from the same sect as me. Do you think she is my senior sister? But the old Taoist priest never said that he still has such a An apprentice with background."
"You said the Empress is fine, why did you poison Emperor Qingming? I believe that the Empress Dowager poisoned Emperor Qingming, but the Empress...is really confusing."
"Hey, talk to me."
Su Bo said dissatisfied, "My mouth is dry, why don't you say a word?"
Zhao Chengyuan said, "She is Chen Man, Chen Man of the Chen Family in Xiangping Mansion. Chen Man learned Buddhism and medicine from Master Xuanzhi since she was a child. It is not surprising that she met Daoist Invincible."
Su Bai stood up abruptly, and said in shock, "Chen Man... Madam Dingguo?"
"Yes." Zhao Chengyuan said, "That's why she can't die. How she survives depends on you."
Su Bai has not recovered from the shock.
Only now did he understand why Zhao Chengyuan cared so much about the queen.He originally thought it was to find a breakthrough from the empress to deal a fatal blow to Emperor Qingming.
He even suspected for a while that the queen was instigated by Zhao Chengyuan to do these things.
It turned out not to be, it turned out that Zhao Chengyuan was trying to save his mother-in-law.
"This... this... that bastard!"
Su Bai jumped up and scolded Emperor Qingming, then his face darkened suddenly, and he stared at Zhao Chengyuan, "Are you going to let me into the palace again?"
Zhao Chengyuan said, "Keep an eye on the queen, don't let her get into trouble. You are good at poison, good at medicine, good at disguising, quick-witted, and strong in martial arts. No one is more suitable for this matter than you."
Su Bai snorted coldly, "Don't put a high hat on me, I'm afraid I won't live to the day when you will succeed."
Zhao Chengyuan was silent, drinking tea with downcast eyes.
This is dangerous, and it cannot be done by coercion.If Su Bo refuses to do it, then he has to go in person.
Ordinary people's disguises can't fool Emperor Qingming's eyes, especially if they often appear in his sight.
Su Bai was afraid of his appearance, so he might as well force him with a knife on his neck.
He snorted, "All right, all right, I'll go. If it wasn't for Princess Jin's face, I wouldn't take this risk."
He still has several calligraphy and paintings of Master Xuanzhi in his hand, all of which were "accidentally" forgotten by Princess Jin with him.In fact, the concubine of Jin has more friends than the king of Jin.
He is not the kind of person who does not know good from bad.
-
Wu Jian is here.
He went to Duke Dingguo's mansion but did not find King Jin, so he came to King Jin's mansion again.
He saluted Zhao Chengyuan with a smile, "My lord, the emperor just got some good things, and I asked my servant to bring them to you."
Zhao Chengyuan glanced at the group of young eunuchs following behind him, everyone was holding a red lacquer tray in their hands, covered with red silk, it might be some kind of rare treasure.
Behind the eunuchs were two handsome guards.
Zhao Chengyuan said in a low voice, "Brother Huang has repeatedly rewarded you generously, but this king may not be able to afford it. You should take it back."
Wu Jian smiled apologetically, wondering, "This... this... my lord, if I take these rewards back intact, I'm afraid I won't be able to save my life."
Zhao Chengyuan said, "Then tell me, what is your purpose here?"
Wu Jian put his hands down by his sides, bowed and smiled, "Your Highness is wise. That's right, the Emperor asked, that pill... can your Highness take a single pill?"
Zhao Chengyuan already knew that Chen Man's current situation was not optimistic, and she urgently needed a pill by her side to keep her life alive.
Let's listen to Su Bo's words, the smell of medicine wafting over Kunning Palace every day clearly contains Shiquan Dabu Decoction.After so many years, why does she still need this great tonic medicinal material?
Zhao Chengyuan pursed his lips, but did not answer Wu Jian's question.
"The emperor said, if you have any request, please ask, the emperor will definitely fulfill your request." Wu Jian stepped forward, saluted again, looked up at him slightly and said, "My lord, you are a smart person... Your majesty You know how to value the queen."
Zhao Chengyuan's expression darkened, "Are you threatening me?"
Wu Jian hurriedly knelt down, "I dare not!"
Zhao Chengyuan said in a low voice, "I still have two pills in my hand. After one pill is distributed, the other pill can't be given anyway."
Wu Jian was overjoyed, and responded repeatedly, "Yes, yes! Thank you, my lord, for caring about the servants!"
Zhao Chengyuan glanced at him coldly, "Come with me."
Wu Jian hurriedly got up, and quickly moved to catch up with King Jin. He didn't forget to turn around and tell the little eunuchs, "You guys wait here!"
The little eunuchs stood still, but one of the two guards stepped up.
Ye Chang limped forward to stop him, "Your Majesty is going to the inner house, not you, a guard, can enter."
The guard's eyes were cold, "The emperor's life is hard to do."
Zhao Chengyuan turned his head and said, "Ye Chang, let him follow."
Ye Chang snorted unconvinced, and lowered his arms to let the guards pass by.
He limped again and walked up to the little eunuchs, looking at them coldly, "Don't reward our prince, just don't come here again in the future."
The little eunuchs have never had such a cold face, but they also know that people in the Jin Palace can't afford to offend them, and they are stunned for a while, not knowing how to react.
Cheng Han was kinder than Ye Chang, and said to them, "Leave the reward to me. Manager Wu will be back in a while."
He took the trays one by one and handed them to the servants behind him. At the same time, each little eunuch had a heavy silver ingot in his sleeve.
The little eunuchs followed the manager when they went out to do errands, and they were all overjoyed to receive such a small reward.
Cheng Han then kindly invited them to the wing room for tea, "Guard Ye loves my master so much, it's inevitable that his words won't please you, father-in-law, please be more careful, and don't let the matter out today."
The little eunuchs didn't show it on their faces, but they were already happy in their hearts. They were stupid to tell this matter.
They understood that the emperor was clearly here to rescue the life-saving pill from Jin Wang, so it's no wonder that the people in Jin Wang's mansion are happy.
Cheng Han went out with a smile again, and asked with a smile on the guard who was guarding the door and refused to enter the house, "I don't know what your name is?"
"Sang Yuan."
Ye Chang folded his chest and looked at him, "You are Sang Yuan? I heard that every year the Yulin Army takes the school exam, and you can get the first place. Do you dare to compete with me?"
Sang Yuan kept a cold face and ignored him.
"Why, look down on people?"
Ye Changzheng drew his sword and stabbed him mercilessly.It can be seen that some of them are somewhat resentful towards the emperor.
Sang Yuan had no choice but to draw his sword to fight.
The two fought more and more fiercely, and it was difficult to tell the winner for a while, so they unknowingly shifted the place of fighting to the back of the wing.
Sang Yuan suddenly felt a gust of wind blowing behind him, and before he could turn his head, he received a solid palm on the back of his neck. Before he fainted, he saw a face exactly like his own, looking at him with a smile.
Zhao Chengyuan went back to Yongxi Hall to take a pill, and handed it to Wu Jian who was waiting outside the courtyard, and said in a low voice, "Boss Wu told the emperor on behalf of the king, I still have a pill in my hand, and I want to protect it." It's not easy to be foolproof, and next month, Princess Jin will be three months pregnant, and I will leave for Jinzhou."
Wu Jian was careful, "The slave will tell the emperor..."
Zhao Chengyuan turned around and returned to Yongxi Hall.
Wu Jian and the guard behind him looked at each other helplessly, carefully put away the porcelain bottle, followed Luo Ping out of the inner courtyard, joined the people from the outer courtyard, and hurriedly left Jinwang Mansion.
