Hearing Qingyun's inquiry, Imperial Physician Xu looked up at Mo Xuan, who was standing opposite with his hands behind his back, and said solemnly and respectfully, "Back to the Ninth Princess, from the symptoms and pulse condition, the imperial concubine is suffering from a seasonal epidemic, and she has not been diagnosed and treated in time, so That's why it's so serious!"

"Plague?!"

Everyone's expressions suddenly changed when they heard this, and the four of the imperial concubine's personal servants, Ruqin, were so frightened that their faces turned pale, and all of them felt uncomfortable at the moment.

It should be known that very few people have survived the epidemic since ancient times, and the disease is highly contagious, so it is no wonder that people will turn pale when they hear it.

The clear eyes flowed among the frightened people, Qingyun's clear and beautiful face was condensed, it seemed that there was an invisible pressure that made everyone feel frightened, and they lowered their heads one after another, not even daring to take a breath .

"According to what I know, the epidemic usually occurs in summer, so how could a noble concubine get the epidemic?"

"The Ninth Princess doesn't know something. This disease is caused by feeling unhealthy qi. This is the epidemic of heaven." The doctor Xu said carefully: "The doctor said that human beings are nourished by the virtues of heaven and earth. The four seasons alternately keep faith and grow. The sky has four seasons and five elements, which are used to produce cold and heat, dry damp wind, and human beings. The evil spirit of the epidemic will be sick for a while."

The implication is that the imperial concubine suffers from the seasonal epidemic because of her emotional instability and weakness, which has nothing to do with the season.

Looking at Mo Xuan, who was noncommittal, Qingyun concealed her doubts and said, "So the doctor Xu will have to worry too much."

"The imperial concubine has passed the best period of diagnosis and treatment, and I have limited medical skills, so I can only do my best!" Imperial Physician Xu sighed heavily. After all, no one has been able to cure the epidemic since ancient times. helpless.

Understanding Imperial Physician Xu's concerns, Qingyun said solemnly: "Emperor Xu is trying his best to heal the noble concubine, and I and King Chun are responsible for everything. Does King Chun say so?"

Before Sima Chun could speak, Zhang Lianwu said first, "Mr. Mo has excellent medical skills. I believe that with Mr. Mo here, my mother and concubine will recover soon."

"So what if I don't make a move?" Mo Xuan cast a cold glance at Zhang Lianwu, and the corner of Mo Xuan's lips curled up into a mocking yet arrogant smile.

Zhang Lianwu's heart trembled with that icy cold gaze that looked like a millennium cold pool, and her expression was still worried and anxious. Those who didn't know thought she and the noble concubine were really in love with each other: "Mr. Mo refuses to help Mother and concubine, we will not force others to make things difficult, but everyone knows that Mr. Mo has always obeyed the order of Princess Nine, so I am afraid..."

"Side Concubine Zhang keeps saying that she won't force others to make things difficult for her, but she insinuates in every sentence. What Concubine Zhang means, is it possible that the imperial concubine's inability to recover is all due to my palace?"

"The concubine has absolutely no such intention!" Zhang Lianwu knelt down and argued: "It is well known that the ninth princess is always benevolent, and the concubine begs the nine princess to let Mr. Mo treat the mother and concubine. The prince and the concubine will be grateful... . . ”

"Shut up!" Sima Chun originally tried everything possible to win back Qingyun's heart, but Qingyun always said that he was busy with court affairs and avoided seeing him. Now that he finally had the opportunity to get close to Qingyun, how could he allow others to destroy him?What's more, if he condescended to beg his rival to treat his mother and concubine, he couldn't bear this face.

"Whether Mr. Mo is willing to treat his mother and concubine is Mr. Mo's business. What does it have to do with Jiuer?" Sima Chun gave Zhang Lianwu a hard look at Zhang Lianwu, who was hesitating to speak, and then turned to look at Imperial Physician Xu: "Physician Xu, don't worry. Mother and concubine's diagnosis and treatment are just that, if anyone dares to embarrass the imperial physician Xu, the king will never forgive him lightly!"

Glancing at Sima Chun who was eager to please Qingyun, Zhang Lianwu lowered his eyes slightly and flashed a trace of sarcasm.

I don't know what's good or bad!

Everyone knows that the epidemic is an incurable disease, not to mention Imperial Physician Xu, even if Mo Xuan is afraid, there is nothing he can do. When the time comes, they will use the problem to make use of it. Even if Mo Xuan takes all the responsibilities, Mu Qingyun will not be able to get rid of the responsibility, thus losing the hearts of the people. But it can skyrocket, so why not do such a clever plan that kills three birds with one stone?

Doctor Xu was a little hesitant when he heard this, so he looked up at Qingyun and saw her nodding, so he was relieved.

"I'm going back to the imperial hospital to study the prescription, but although the high fever of the imperial concubine has subsided, the next few days are still extremely dangerous, and someone must take care of it for twelve hours. In addition, all the things used by the imperial concubine must be taken care of. Incinerate and treat in isolation so as not to infect others."

"I will arrange this matter on my own, you just study the prescription."

"Yes, I will leave!" Imperial Physician Xu left Yanqing Palace after saluting.

Lin Yiwei stood quietly aside, as if she didn't exist from the beginning to the end.

Looking down at the four Ruqin people who were kneeling on the ground, Qingyun's tone was clear and majestic: "The imperial concubine is ill, why didn't you invite the imperial physician to come for diagnosis and treatment immediately? Why didn't you report it in time?"

"Slaves..." The four of them trembled uncontrollably, and their faces instantly turned pale.

The other three all looked at Ruqin at the same time. Relying on the reliance of the imperial concubine, she often bullied and bullied them, and of course she was responsible for any accidents.

Knowing that the three of them took the opportunity to retaliate, Ruqin stared back at them fiercely, her dark eyes clearly said: "Idiots, do you think it's okay to shirk all the responsibility to me?"Don't forget, the four of us are the personal servants of the imperial concubine, and no one can escape if something happens to the imperial concubine. If something happens to the imperial concubine, everyone in Yanqing Palace will have to be buried with the imperial concubine!

As if they understood the meaning expressed in Ruqin's eyes, the three of them were scared out of their wits: They are still young, and they don't want to be buried with them!

Seeing the small movements of the four of them, Qingyun's brows were filled with bitterness: "Say!"

The four of them couldn't help being shocked.

Ruqin tremblingly said: "Back to Princess Nine, a few days ago, the servants saw that the imperial concubine's spirit was not good, so they said to ask the imperial doctor, but the imperial concubine only said that it was because of poor sleep, and it was the New Year, so she refused to bother The imperial physician also strictly ordered the servants not to report to the emperor and the nine princesses, and the servants had to obey the imperial concubine's orders. But today, the imperial concubine suddenly had a high fever and fell into a coma, so the servants rushed to invite the imperial physician... .. The slaves don't know that the imperial concubine is going to catch the epidemic, so I beg the Ninth Princess to learn from her!"

"Bold servant girl!" Zhang Lianwu scolded angrily, "It is a crime not to fulfill the responsibility of taking care of the master, and it is an unforgivable crime to shift the responsibility to the master! The slave servants who commit crimes like this should be severely punished and set an example to everyone else." , otherwise everyone will follow suit, wouldn't everyone climb up on the master's head and domineering?" The last sentence was said to Qingyun.

"Every sentence of my servant is true, and I dare not hide anything, please forgive me!" The four kept kowtowing for mercy.

Looking at the righteous Zhang Lianwu, and then at the four begging Ruqin, Qingyun slightly opened her lips and was about to say something, but Lin Yiwei said quietly: "Ninth Princess, I don't know if you can Listen to the concubine say a few words?"

Qingyun looked at Lin Yiwei's eyes with a hint of amusement: "Please tell me!"

"The four of them did make mistakes first, but now the concubine mother needs someone to serve her, and other people may not be as familiar with her concubine's living habits as they are, so the concubine begs for mercy from the nine princesses on their behalf, hoping that the concubine nine If they can allow them to pay off their merits, I believe they will do their best to take care of the mother and concubine."

Hearing this, Zhang Lianwu gave Lin Yiwei a hard look.

Don't look at Lin Yiwei who usually doesn't look like a mountain, but every time she confronts herself and loses to her, she knows that she is by no means simple.

What's wrong with her today, to actually help Mu Qingyun, could it be that she has been fighting with Mu Qingyun for a long time?

Qingyun suddenly couldn't understand Lin Yiwei.

It is said that the imperial concubine is her real aunt, and is closely related to her prosperity and wealth. She should be most anxious and indignant if the imperial concubine's life or death is unknown, but she remains silent all the time, pleading for the four of Ruqin, which is really incredible.

Also, she knew that the enmity between herself and the concubine and the prime minister's mansion was as deep as sea, and she knew that she wanted to use this to eradicate the concubine's minions. , and got rid of the four Ruqin in a disguised form. After all, the imperial concubine was almost hopeless, and if the four were to serve the imperial concubine, they would not escape death in the end.

Why should she help herself?She is the imperial concubine's niece and the prime minister's granddaughter, the Lin family treated her well but not badly!

"Prince Chun, how do you think this matter should be handled?"

Usually when encountering such things, Sima Chun ordered them to beat them to death with sticks. Now that he wants to win Qingyun's heart back, he naturally listens to her in everything.

"Everything is up to Jiuer to deal with it."

"In this case." Qingyun looked down at the four of them, Ruqin: "You were negligent and slack so as to delay the best time to treat the concubine's condition. You should have been severely punished. For the sake of concubine Lin pleading for you, the palace will temporarily I leave you alive, each of you will be hit with thirty big boards as a punishment, if you don't do your best, I will count the crimes and punish you! Do you all remember?"

"My servant thanked the Ninth Princess for not killing me, my servant will serve the imperial concubine with all my heart!" The four of them were ashamed, but they could only kowtow to thank Lin Yiwei.

Although the death penalty was temporarily spared, but the imperial concubine and empress were suffering from a seasonal epidemic, wouldn't they still die in the end?

"As for the others, as members of Yanqing Palace, no matter whether it's the master's reluctance to seek medical treatment, or the maids' negligence, when the master's illness persists for several days, they should remind or advise them, but you Indifference, really abominable! Come on, drag it down and hit ten boards each!"

Dozens of guards came in immediately, and dragged all the pale-faced servants and eunuchs of Yanqing Palace to the courtyard, including Ruqin of course.

Looking at Qingyun with a calm expression, Lin Yiwei's slightly drooping eyes flickered with an unknown light.

It is obvious that everyone has believed Ruqin's words, coupled with the extremely brilliant words of the nine princesses, at this moment everyone is afraid that they are extremely resentful to the noble concubine, who will be loyal to the noble concubine in the future?Otherwise, it will not be as simple as replaying the top ten boards next time.

He ordered the guards to burn all the items used by the imperial concubine, and asked the Ministry of Internal Affairs to send a new batch. Qing Yun wanted to go into the inner room to see the imperial concubine, but Lu Po immediately dissuaded her in a low voice.

The Ninth Princess is not physically strong, if she gets infected with the epidemic by accident, it will be a disaster!

Shaking her head slightly towards Lupo, signaling her not to worry, Qingyun walked into the inner room.

Seeing that there was no strange expression on the face of Mr. Mo who was closely following the princess, Lupo suppressed her doubts and followed Qingyun every step of the way.

On the spacious bed, the imperial concubine lay quietly with her eyes closed, her brows furrowed and her sleep was extremely restless, her pale face was flushed unusually, her neck was swollen to a frightening degree, and some parts even began to rupture, accompanied by bursts of pain. Smelly.

Seeing the noble concubine in such a miserable state, Qingyun secretly sighed.

The imperial concubine has always cared about her appearance the most, how could this appearance be any less glamorous than before?

Glamorous?

A flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in Qingyun's mind, could it be? . . . . .

Sima Chun only glanced at the concubine mother and then quickly looked away. Zhang Lianwu looked worried, while Lin Yiwei's eyes were downcast, making it hard to see the expression clearly.

"Although there are palace servants serving the noble concubine, they are not as good as relatives doing their best. Does King Chun think so?"

"Jiu'er is right." As a son of man, he was supposed to be filial before the bed, but he had more important things to do, so Sima Chun looked at Zhang Lianwu and Lin Yiwei in a blink of an eye. Before he could speak, Zhang Lianwu was gone. He said anxiously: "The concubine's hand injury has not healed, I'm afraid she can't take good care of the concubine mother."

Sima Chun stared straight at Zhang Lianwu, with undisguised annoyance and hatred in his eyes.

Yesterday he saw her painting in the room, but now he said that the hand injury was not healed, obviously he was afraid of contracting the epidemic and making excuses.

If something happened to the concubine mother, he would definitely let this selfish bitch be buried with the concubine mother!

Seeing the glint in Sima Chun's eyes, Zhang Lianwu was startled, and saw Qingyun beside him smiling, only to realize that he had fallen for Qingyun's way. It was too late to make up for it, so he could only purse his lips tightly. No more words.

Qingyun swept across the two people with different expressions, and the corner of Qingyun's lips slightly raised a sneer.

"The concubine stays to take care of the concubine mother." Lin Yiwei said suddenly.

Sima Chun's expression was relieved when he heard this, he stepped forward and took Lin Yiwei's hand, and said softly, "Wei'er, it's hard work for you!"

Withdrawing the hand held by Sima Chun without showing any trace, Lin Yiwei said quietly: "Taking care of the concubine mother is originally the job of the concubine, and the concubine dare not speak bitterly!" She glanced at Qingyun from the corner of her eyes.

Seeing Lin Yiwei's indifferent and quiet eyes, and the bright moon standing behind her, Qingyun was thoughtful.

Instruct the guards to put Yanqing Palace under full martial law. Without her will, no one is allowed to enter or leave at will until the concubine recovers!

"The imperial concubine didn't get the epidemic!" At this moment, outside the closed gate of Yanqing Palace, there were only three people, Qingyun, Mo Xuan and Lupo.

"It's caused by drugs!"

"Someone wants to put the imperial concubine to death?"

"I think that person wants to protect the noble concubine, after all, the capital is not peaceful during this time!"

"It's the one who has been hiding in the dark!"

"Since he is willing to protect the noble concubine, it can be seen that the noble concubine is extremely important to him!" Hearing Qingyun order Wu Ying to investigate the life story of the noble concubine, Mo Xuan asked suspiciously: "Why do you suddenly want to investigate the noble concubine?"
