Chapter 658 Poison and Antidote

Empress Dowager Xiao hesitated for a while, but reached out to take it, and held it in her palm.She looked at it for a while and said, "Why does Aijia believe that this is the antidote and not the poison?"

Ye Qingchi still knelt on the ground and explained: "Mother, if the concubine really wants to harm the fetus in Xiangui's womb, she will not rescue her that day. Now I will not come up with the antidote, whether you believe it or not, The servants are loyal to the empress, please learn from the empress."

Empress Dowager Xiao looked at her thoughtfully and said, "Come here, the Ai family has something to tell you in detail."

Ye Qingchi walked over tremblingly, bowed his head and listened.Empress Dowager Xiao's voice became lower and lower and colder. Ye Qingchi's face was full of fear, but he still nodded with firm eyes.In the end Ye Qingchi tremblingly took the things that Empress Dowager Xiao handed her, and put them into his arms carefully, his face was as pale as paper, while Empress Dowager Xiao had a vicious and proud expression on her face.

Time passed day by day, Yun Shaoyang stayed in Yanfu Palace every day, and occasionally in Jingfu Palace.The concubines in the harem gritted their teeth with hatred, but they couldn't help Ye Qingchi, so they had to give up resentfully.

When Eunuch Lu returned to Changchun Palace from the Imperial Hospital, Empress Dowager Xiao was chanting scriptures in front of the Buddha: "Master Xian, don't mourn your family."

"Niangniang, Niangniang..."

"You bastard, why are you in such a panic." Empress Dowager Xiao's tone was filled with displeasure and a hint of panic.

"Your Majesty, I just went to the imperial hospital to inquire about the emperor's recent physical condition. At first, the imperial physician at the imperial hospital refused to tell me. Later, the servant said that I was ordered by the empress, and the empress was concerned about the emperor and asked the servant to inquire about the news, so they told the servant. "Eunuch Lu had a flattering face.

"Say, what did you find out?" Empress Dowager Xiao's eyes brightened instantly.

"The imperial doctor said, the emperor, recently his body has been deteriorating, and his mind is often blurred. Recently, the time interval when he became clear is getting shorter and shorter." Eunuch Lu said without any emotion on his face.

Empress Dowager Xiao shook her head and said, "Can anyone say what caused it?"

"Back to your mother, the imperial physician is also helpless. He can't find the cause, and it's not easy to prescribe the right medicine. So the imperial hospital does not dare to leak this news easily. And I heard that the emperor has been in Yanfu Palace recently, so the palace There are many rumors." Eunuch Lu hesitated to speak.

Empress Dowager Xiao said sternly: "Whatever you said, just say it."

Mr. Lu said: "There are rumors in the palace that Concubine Meng used some vicious tricks to drive the emperor into a rage, which caused the emperor to lose his mind. People in the palace also said that Concubine Meng was transformed by a vixen. , Only by killing Concubine Meng and using her blood as a prelude to the medicine, will the emperor's illness be cured."

"It's a bunch of nonsense, it's simply absurd, extremely absurd!" Empress Dowager Xiao slammed the table angrily.

"Your Majesty, please calm down. This is all a rumor in the palace. Please don't take it seriously." Eunuch Lu knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

It took a long time for Empress Dowager Xiao to calm down, with a smug smile in her eyes, thinking of Ye Qingchi, her heart calmed down a little.Finally, I can sleep peacefully, but this woman can't stay.

It was night, Ye Qingchi and Yun Shaoyang went to Jingfu Palace for dinner together.Yun Shaoyang was like a child, drooling and slurred in speech, Ye Qingchi took care of him like he wanted to take care of a child.Concubine Wan said to the palace people beside her: "If any of you dare to tell about the emperor, I will destroy your nine clans, have you heard?"

Everyone knelt on the ground, "Slaves, slaves obey orders, and will surely live up to the expectations of their masters."

"Very good, you all go down! Xiao Luzi, arrange two people to guard outside the palace, and report immediately if there is any movement. There are also other palaces that continue to be watched by me, and no one is allowed to relax." Concubine Wan retreated from the room. Everyone in the house shut the windows and doors.

The room fell silent for an instant.Yun Shaoyang resumed his serious face and said: "I'm afraid the queen mother already knows about my situation at this moment, and I think it's not too late, otherwise it will really be too late."

Ye Qingchi pressed Yun Shaoyang's excited hand and said: "Your Majesty, there is no need to rush. The Queen Mother is so treacherous and cunning. Now Lu Gonggong's words are not enough to convince her completely, but she has almost believed everything."

"Yes, Your Majesty, there is no need to rush this matter. During the past month, my concubine took your seal and found the most important ministers in the court according to your instructions. They were all willing to submit to the Emperor. They In fact, I have long been displeased with Queen Mother Xiao's style of work, but they dare not disobey. Now that the emperor is resisting, they naturally support them. The generals and concubines in the northwest and the border also gave Liu to command them according to the emperor's request. I believe that as long as the emperor gives the order, they will return to Beijing immediately." Wan Gui also has a serious face, and his analysis is clear and logical.

Yun Shaoyang gradually relaxed when he heard this.He glanced at Concubine Wan who was extremely thin and full of sorrow, and said: "Wan Xi, I have really worked hard for you recently, and you are still pregnant with a child, so I blame myself."

Concubine Wan's face gradually relaxed and said with a smile: "What is the emperor saying? It is the concubine's blessing to relieve the emperor's worries and difficulties. The emperor does not need to blame himself. Both the concubine and the child are fine." Then he gently stroked his slightly raised belly.

Ye Qingchi looked at the gentle eyes of these two people and smiled happily, "Sister, you too, if you are so tired, your body is important, you should listen to the emperor's words and have a good rest. With me, what's the matter with the emperor, I It will be handled well. I will take care of the next things, and you write to tell Qi Yufeng the situation here."

Concubine Wan nodded and said, "Okay, it's just the two of you who are so talkative, you will take good care of yourself."

Yun Shaoyang nodded reassuringly and said: "Qingchi, I can't show up recently, there are many things that need you to help me deal with."

Ye Qingchi also nodded solemnly and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, Qingchi will definitely live up to the Emperor's expectations."

Yun Shaoyang said: "King Qi's attitude must be well grasped. I will definitely do what I say, so I also hope that King Qi can keep his word."

Ye Qingchi nodded gratefully and said: "Your majesty, I am really grateful that you can trust me and agree to my conditions. After all, the emperor also hopes that the people of the world can live and work in peace and contentment."

Concubine Wan thoughtfully said, "Yes, Your Majesty, only a harmonious family can prosper. What's more, how about a harmonious world?"

Yun Shaoyang nodded, his face was full of longing for the future, his eyes were full of waiting, he just said softly: "Thank you, thank you."
