Blessed

Chapter 40

When everyone saw this, how could they not understand that the medicine must have been hidden on the maid.The queen turned around and ordered Jianchun behind her, "Jianchun, go forward and search the body of the maidservants." Then she called two guards to search the body of Imperial Physician Liu.

Physician Liu was shaking like chaff, knelt on the ground and kowtowed vigorously to beg His Majesty for mercy, but was dragged aside by two guards and searched him roughly.

Jianchun searched the bodies of three palace maids, and actually found a paper medicine bag in a green satin embroidered gold silk pouch around the waist of the round-faced maid, which contained some brown powder.Jianchun's complexion changed, and he held the paper bag in front of the queen, "Your Majesty, look."

"Damn things!" The queen pinched her palms, her face turned blue with anger, "You should have murdered the emperor's heirs, you should chop them up alive!" She was a little annoyed, remembering that Emperor Ruiwu was there, and walked around the screen Go to him and hand him the paper wrapped things, "Your Majesty, what do you think?"

Emperor Ruiwu's face was solemn, "The empress will investigate this matter, if you find out who is behind the scenes, you will be directly executed!"

The queen handed the paper bag to Lord Yin first, "Master Yin, look at the ingredients of this medicine, first help Concubine Jiang boil the antidote."

Elder Yin took a few steps forward, took the paper bag carefully, saw the brown powder inside, put it on his nose and sniffed it carefully, then handed the paper bag to Jianchun after a while, sighed, "These are made from eucalyptus , gansui, daphne, safflower, musk, red peony root, veratrum and several other medicinal materials are dried and ground. It is specially used for abortion. It is very toxic and cold. If you take it for one month, a woman will die for a lifetime. It can be described as very vicious."

Having stayed in the palace for decades, Mr. Yin has seen many such things, and he has no other choice but to sigh.

Master Yin continued, "Since the old minister has learned the formula of the medicine, he can go get the medicine and boil it to detoxify Concubine Jiang."

The empress looked downcastly, "Lord Lao Yin is here."

The queen called people from the Ministry of Justice to come over, dragged the three servant girls and Imperial Physician Liu down for torture and interrogation, and surrounded the four sides. Seeing that the whole Ruihe Garden was in a mess, Licorice hugged Yuzhu'er and shrank aside, frightened, Yuzhu's eyes Red and swollen, moist on the cheeks.The queen turned her head and said to Jianchun, "You should wait in Ruihe Garden for the next few days, and pick two more handy maids to come over, and when the matter is over, send another three maids to Concubine Jiang's side. Take care of people."

Seeing Yuzhu staring at her blankly, she was about to instruct Jianchun to send the two back to Princess Shen Mei, when Yuzhu jumped off Licorice's lap, knelt on the ground and begged, "Empress, Jiaojiao wants to stay here." In the Ruihe Garden, live with the big sister, the empress can rest assured that Jiao Jiao will be very good."

The queen sighed, "Forget it, you can stay in Ruihe Garden, I will send someone to the Zhen Guogong's mansion to inform you."

"Thank you Queen Empress."

Only Yuzhu, Gancao, Jianchun, and Yuning lying on the bed were left in the entire Ruihe Garden. The silver needles on Yuning's body had been removed, and her face was pale and pale. Yuzhu stayed in front of the couch and refused to leave. , only to accompany, Jianchun went to transfer the maids of the two palaces to serve them.

Seeing this, Jianchun went up to persuade Yuzhu, "Mr. Fuchang County, it's already Haishi, Mr. Yin is brewing medicine in the backyard, if you take a rest first, the servant will take good care of Concubine Jiang later."

Yuzhu shook her head, her voice was hoarse instead of soft as usual, "Sister Jianchun, please ask Jiao Jiao to spend more time with eldest sister."

Jianchun got up and sighed, knowing that if Concubine Jiang didn't wake up today, the Lord of Fuchang County would probably not rest, so she asked the palace maid to bring over two crane candlesticks, and lighted two thick red wax , told Licorice, "Take care of your little master, I'll go and see if Master Yin's medicine is ready."

Shen Mei didn't wait for Yuzhu to return, and she refused to rest, she dozed off on the embroidered gold silk soft pillow, couldn't persuade her with a smile, so she could only watch together.After a while, Shen Xian knocked on the door and came in. Seeing his younger sister leaning on the soft pillow, he told Hanxiao, "Take her back to the couch and rest."

As soon as she heard the sound, Shen Mei woke up startled, she rubbed her eyes and saw that it was the elder brother, she shouted, "Elder brother, I will not rest, I will wait for Yu Zhu'er to come back."

"She won't come back these few days." Shen Xian's voice was deep, and his handsome face was hidden in the dim candlelight, looming, "Concubine Jiang was poisoned and unconscious. Lord Yin is treating her. Miss Jiang Si won't be here for a few days."

"Poisoned?" Shen Mei jumped up from the imperial concubine's couch in shock, "How did Big Sister Yuzhu get poisoned? Brother, you won't frame me, right? I don't believe it, I'm going to see."

"Mei'er, don't mess around." Shen Xian's tone was flat, he still stood there, "It was a message from someone close to the queen, if you want to visit, just wait for a few days, these days are the time when you are in a hurry. "

Shen Mei thought for a while, then went back to sit on the couch, the elder brother was right, Yuzhu must be very busy, and Yuzhu might be scared, she really wanted to comfort Yuzhu in the past, but now is not the time to make trouble, She obediently said, "Then I've been obedient for the past few days, how about big brother take me there then?"

Shen Xian nodded lightly, and agreed, "Okay, I'll take you there to visit Concubine Jiang and Yuzhu in a few days." Then turned around and ordered Hanxiao, "Take care of Meier and rest."

On the side of Ruiheyuan, Mr. Yin finally prepared the prescription and boiled the medicine, and asked Jianchun to take it for Concubine Jiang. He also specially called two of his apprentices from the Imperial Medical Office to come over and guard, and told Jianchun "These two are honest apprentices of the official. I keep them waiting in Ruiheyuan. Girl Jianchun can use them at ease. I have already told them who need to pay attention. By the way, Concubine Jiang is here today." I'm afraid I won't be able to wake up at night, I guess it will be early tomorrow morning."

Speaking of this, Mr. Yin couldn't bear it, stroked his white beard and sighed, "Prepare hot water, clean bedding and so on tomorrow morning, I am afraid that the baby on Jiang's side will fall in the morning. There will be a female doctor when the baby is born." Come here to help, the old man also handed over the prescriptions to two apprentices, and remember not to overdo it even if you lose your baby. Concubine Jiang’s body is very weak, and now the tonic will only make her weak and not tonic, making her body even weaker, medicinal diet and food tonic The old man Fang Zi is ready, just take the medicine and food according to the above."

After babbling and explaining a lot, Mr. Yin just left.

When Master Yin explained, Yuzhu listened carefully, and when the person left, she retracted her head again, bowed her head next to Yuning and said nothing.

This night at the Summer Resort is destined to be unsettled. The Ministry of Punishment imposed heavy punishments on the three servants and the imperial doctor Liu. Most of the concubines also got the news. Everyone was in danger, and Concubine Mu also got the news. Mammy Zhu found out So I went to tell Concubine Mu Gui, "Your Majesty, I heard that the Holy Majesty has sent someone to arrest those maidservants and Imperial Physician Liu and torture them severely."

Concubine Mu Gui is watering a pot of phalaenopsis at the moment. She loves orchids, and there are many kinds of orchids planted in the palace and the summer resort. Concubine Mu Guifei's favorite is the petaled lotus orchid, which has a beautiful plant shape and green leaves. , the leaves are butterfly, the flowers are in various poses and with different expressions, gorgeous and dazzling, and the fragrance of flowers is fragrant and long-lasting.

This kind is also called phalaenopsis, the most valuable and the hardest to survive. There are only two pots in the palace, and they are all placed in Concubine Mu's bedroom. In her bedroom, she also watered and fertilized this pot of phalaenopsis with her own hands, taking great care of it.

Hearing this, Concubine Mu's beautiful eyes twitched up and down, the white jade water bottle in her hand was casually placed on the table, a smile appeared on her lips, "What does this have to do with my palace?"

The nervousness on Zhu Mama's face eased a bit, and she blessed herself, "What the empress said is true."

Concubine Mu Gui's white jade-like fingers caressed the body of the white jade jug. She likes to use the water raised by jade to water, thinking that the orchids watered in this way will be extraordinarily beautiful. The smile on her face faded a little, and she sighed , "The Concubine Jiang is also stupid. She didn't even keep the first eldest grandson of the Holy Majesty. It's a pity. How about it, mother, when the news comes out tomorrow, you pick up two ginseng from the warehouse and send them over. You don’t need to express too much, just don’t involve me in it.”

"Your Majesty, don't worry, I'll save you, servant girl."

That night, Yuzhu hardly slept, and lay on the couch beside Yuning's feet for a while, but she didn't sleep well for a while, and she had nightmares.Woke up before dawn, put on her clothes to see her eldest sister, but she hadn't woken up yet.

Licorice came over and said softly, "Girl, don't worry, the concubine's complexion has improved a lot. Mrs. Yin said that the concubine will wake up this morning." Thinking about what Mrs. Yin said about the abortion, the couch must be full of blood later on. She wanted to persuade the little master to leave, "Miss, why don't you go to the porch outside to have a meeting first, the maidservant has boiled red dates and millet porridge in the small kitchen, and bring some over for the lady to eat first?"

Yuzhu shook her head and sat next to Yuning, "I'm not going anywhere."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yuning on the bed hummed a few times, which turned into heavy panting. Yuzhu also understood what Mr. Yin said yesterday, and hurriedly ordered Licorice, "Licorice, hurry up and call the female doctors in."

The female doctor and the palace maid had been waiting outside the hall, and when they heard the commotion inside, the two female doctors immediately entered the dormitory, blessed Yuzhu, and then hurriedly went to check on Concubine Jiang, and when they lifted the brocade quilt, they saw blood stains on the quilt , Immediately ordered the palace maid to bring hot water, and the imperial physician outside had already prepared the medicine.

Jianchun hurried in after giving orders, and said to Licorice, "Take Fuchang and go to the side room next door, she can't stay here."

Yuzhu didn't insist on it now, she couldn't help much as a child of a few years old, and staying here would also add to the chaos.Went to the side room next door, Yuzhu didn't dare to do anything, even refused to eat breakfast, took the paper, ink, brush and inkstone and came over, knelt down in front of the desk to copy the Buddhist scriptures, her handwriting has not been practiced well, the handwriting is not very good-looking, that's the case, He also asked Licorice to take the scriptures and copy them stroke by stroke.

An hour later, the movement over there became quieter, and Yuzhu also copied the Buddhist scriptures for an hour. She was small and lacked strength, so she kept copying non-stop.She didn't believe this at first, but the experiences of her two lifetimes let her know that some things cannot be explained by science, and the most important thing is sincerity.

She begged sincerely, begging her eldest sister to survive this calamity, and begging her eldest sister to have fewer disasters in the future and be safe and sound.

Licorice went out to see it several times, and the last time she came in, she excitedly said to Yuzhu, "Miss Si, the side concubine is fine."

Yuzhu got up suddenly, kneeling for too long, her legs were a little numb, she almost fell to the ground, was pulled by licorice, and carried to the next door.

Yuning has woken up, her face is pale, she is lying on the bed, she has already changed into clean clothes and bedding, and the bedroom has a faint fruity fragrance. When she saw Yuzhu coming, her eyes were a little red, and Yuzhu's eyes were also red, but she smiled Said, "Big sister, you are not allowed to cry."

Yuning rubbed her eyes and said softly, "Okay, big sister won't cry."

Licorice put the jade beads on the bed, brought her a bowl of millet porridge to feed her, and Jianchun brought light rice soup. On Mrs. Yin's food list, Concubine Jiang can only drink this one day, and start eating light food tomorrow .

After at least ten days, you have to eat a nourishing and nourishing medicinal diet.

The two had eaten breakfast, one was lying quietly, and the other was sitting on the bedside to accompany them.Yuning already knew what happened yesterday from Jianchun. Needless to say, she is grateful to Yuzhu, she feels that she will not be able to figure it out for the rest of her life.

Yuning thought too much, and she was tired after talking to Yuzhu, and fell asleep again, but Yuzhu refused to leave, stayed beside her elder sister, repeating what happened yesterday.There must be something wrong with Imperial Physician Liu and the round-faced palace maid. My eldest sister has been asked for her pulse by this imperial physician since before she became pregnant. Who arranged it next to the big sister.

She doesn't know who it is, she doesn't live in the palace, she doesn't know the intrigue and complicated relationship, the only thing she is lucky is that yesterday, seeing that something was wrong with the maid in the palace, she stopped her, otherwise the maid went out and destroyed the medicine...

In her previous life, Yuzhu was a law-abiding and good citizen, and she never maliciously speculated on people's hearts. This time, she hoped to kill these servants who murdered her master, and the person who played tricks behind her back. It should be killed by a thousand knives.

In the evening, there was news from the Ministry of Punishment that the round-faced maidservant and Imperial Physician Liu had confessed that Luo Zhaoyuan, the ninth concubine, was behind the scenes.
