famous concubine

Chapter 119
Therefore, he asked his own sister, the empress, to give the emperor some strong medicine, as long as the emperor was still breathing before the prince came back. He didn't believe that a barefoot doctor in the mountains could really solve the problem on the emperor. A poison that no one can cure.

In the dead of night, everything is immersed in deep sleep.

Outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the guards patrolling day and night, at this time, also lazily hid aside to pass sleepiness.

A figure that completely covered itself under the big black hood came hurriedly from the dark path to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Her appearance naturally startled the guards, who were chatting idlely in groups of three or five, and immediately surrounded the door with sharp weapons.

But as soon as she approached, she only waved the token in her hand towards the guards' eyes, and those guards immediately stopped their arrogance and made way for her to enter.

She entered the main hall, removed the hood, and showed the badge, and the palace people who were placed in the hall by the queen immediately fell silent.

She easily turned into the inner room. Eunuch Qian and Aunt Wanqing stood guard in front of the emperor day and night.

To be on the safe side, she still held a small bottle, and after removing the cap, she approached Eunuch Qian lightly, held the small bottle to his nose, and slapped him vigorously; then she did the same to Aunt Wanqing.

After confirming that both of them had inhaled the incense in her bottle, she walked past them with confidence, with a cruel and sinister light in her eyes, and approached the unconscious emperor step by step.

She took out a black bottle from her body, pulled off the cap, raised the emperor's head, then pinched the emperor's jaw with one hand, and put the bottle into the emperor's mouth with the other hand, about to send the liquid inside into the emperor's mouth .

"Stop!" A thunderous yell sounded from behind the heavily hanging curtains, and it was the majestic Queen Dowager who came out with the yell.

She was startled suddenly, and her hands stopped moving.

At this moment, within a split second, many figures appeared in unison from the curtains and corners that were originally still in the shadows.

"I'll catch you if you don't put your hands together!" Qingyue said, and Dongfang Yu, who was dressed as a court lady, turned to her with a smile.

The palace lady looked at the palace people who were approaching her step by step, who had been in ambush for an unknown amount of time, and smiled in despair, two crystal clear and cold tears flowed from the corners of her eyes.

Then, at the moment when Dongfang Yu realized something was wrong and was about to rush forward to grab the bottle.

The court lady glanced at her, and tilted her head back slightly. When Dongfangyu touched the bottle and wanted to grab it, she quickly poured the liquid that was supposed to be poured into the emperor's mouth into her throat. Finally, she pulled out the bottle. With a grim smile, another bottle appeared in his left hand at some point.

"No!" Dongfangyu exclaimed.

The liquid from the maid's left hand also entered her throat at the same time.

Seeing the palace maid showing a bleak but relieved smile, Dongfang Yu hangs down his right arm hanging in the air weakly, a low sigh escapes from the corner of his lips, and a trace of regret flows in his clear eyes.

After laughing miserably, the maid slowly fell to the ground. In the blink of an eye, the corner of the maid's mouth began to rot, and at the same time there was a screaming sound. Soon, the maid's entire mouth and cheeks turned into white bones.

In fact, these things happened only in a short time. The palace people who slowly gathered around saw this terrifying scene, they all stopped in unison, turned their heads and covered their eyes and retreated in unison.

The queen mother frowned, looked at Dongfang Yu, and asked, "What did she swallow for herself, so powerful? It instantly turned human flesh into bones?"

Dongfang Yu sighed, and said with a little regret: "It should be Wang Shui. She did this because she didn't want us to ask anything from her mouth; secondly, she didn't want us to get the original solution of poison from her throat."

So I melted my entire mouth with aqua regia.

The queen mother frowned and stared at the unrecognizable maid on the ground, and said coldly: "The Ai family doesn't believe it, I can't find any flaws in her."

After the empress dowager's eyes signaled, Aunt Shen next to her suppressed the discomfort of vomiting, and squatted down in front of the maid, trying her best not to look at the rotten face, but to search the maid's body.

Searched and searched, but couldn't find anything.

Dongfang Yu stared at the two bottles tightly clutched by the maid, and suddenly her eyes lit up. No matter how the maid poured it down, there was still some original liquid in the bottles.

Dongfang Yu also squatted down, carefully took a handkerchief to cover the two bottles.

Seeing her actions, the queen mother also looked at the two hands of the maid.However, upon seeing this, the Empress Dowager's heart suddenly tightened. She couldn't help squinting her eyes, and checked again carefully.

"Aunt Shen, take off her shoes and socks to see what is embroidered on them?"

Aunt Shen was stunned in astonishment, she raised her head and met the empress dowager's dark and sharp eyes, she was inexplicably uneasy, she took off the maid's shoes and socks one by one to check.

The Queen Mother took a closer look, and found that the shoes and socks were exactly as she expected, all of them were embroidered with a square character.

It's not that this square character is so special, but this surname makes her feel chills.

"If the Ai family remembers correctly, there is an aunt named Fang next to Concubine Nian, right?" The Empress Dowager's eyes were sharp, but her voice was faintly tired and cold.

Aunt Shen's face suddenly changed, the Empress Dowager would never mention a maid like this for no reason.

She opened her eyes wide, and looked at the terrifying maid on the ground in fear. Could it be that this maid is related to Aunt Fang in Nian Guifei's palace?Wasn't it sent by the queen as they had guessed?
"Aunt Shen, I will leave this matter to you. You must investigate clearly for the Ai family. What is the relationship between this court lady and Aunt Fang from Shunhua Palace?"

Aunt Shen bowed her head and respectfully agreed.

The next day, in Shunhua Palace.

"Aunt Fang, how has my palace treated you for so many years?" Concubine Nian carefully trimmed the plant, paused in her hands, turned her head slightly to look at Aunt Fang next to her, her voice was calm and her face was calm, nothing special from usual different.

Aunt Fang looked down at her toes, her heart tightened inexplicably.

"Your Majesty has always treated your servants very well these years. The servants, the servants are grateful to your Majesty, and are willing to go through fire and water for your Majesty." Aunt Fang was silent for a while, and spoke in a tactful tone after deliberation.

Concubine Nian cut off a branch with a "click", bent her charming peach blossom eyes, and said quietly: "There is no need to go through fire and water, I just want to ask you one thing, I hope you will treat me well in this palace." For Bo's sake, tell me everything."

Hearing this, Aunt Fang's palms tightened, and she felt a coldness welling up in her heart.Could it be that the empress knew about that matter?
