Chapter 750 The Queen is Poisoned

 After leaving the imperial study room, Fan Qingyao could not calm down in his heart.

The emperor's face was too young and weird. She was sure that it was definitely not the effect that the Lingxue Pill could bring. But if there was no problem with the Lingxue Pill, then what was the problem?

Just as Fan Qingyao was thinking about it, he saw Ji Hongliao passing by in a hurry carrying a medicine box.

 “Why are you here?”

“Master, where are you going?”

 Two people speaking in unison.

Ji Hongliao reacted quickly. He pulled Fan Qingyao and said, "The Queen has fainted."

Fan Qingyao became serious after hearing this, "Do you know the reason?"

Ji Hongliao shook his head. He really didn’t know the specifics.

Fan Qingyao stopped asking and hurriedly followed his master in the direction of Fengyi Palace.

Lily, who had been waiting at the entrance of Fengyi Palace for a long time, saw Ji Hongliao coming and ran over quickly. When she saw the Crown Princess also leaving and returning, her heart felt very warm. Just take a look.”

Ji Hongliao nodded, carrying the medicine box and entering the door.

Fan Qingyao is just a daughter-in-law who has not yet married. Now that the empress has passed out and the master is here, if she goes in rashly, she will only cause people to incite discord between her and the master.

Seeing the master follow the palace maid around the screen, she pulled Lily to talk, "Aunt Lily, what happened to the good-looking girl?"

Lily sighed, "After the Crown Princess left, Concubine Liu Shu came to visit the Empress. The two of them were enjoying the plum blossoms in the yard. The Empress suddenly fainted. Fortunately, Concubine Liu Shu reacted quickly and hugged the Empress. Otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous.”

 “Fainted suddenly?”

"No, it seems to be the slave's negligence. At that time, the slave went to bring tea to Concubine Liu Shu. Unexpectedly, the slave left for a moment, and something happened to the Queen." Lily was really afraid and regretful. It would have been better if she had not left. .

Fan Qingyao asked again, "Has your mother ever had such symptoms before?"

Lily shook her head and said, "The Queen's health has always been good. Although she occasionally suffers from insomnia, it is just an old illness. This has never happened in these years."

Fan Qingyao frowned, his mind racing with thoughts.

Insomnia is really annoying and may make people faint, but according to Lily, this disease has been following the Empress for many years, and the Empress has never been unconscious during the day, which shows that the Empress still knows how to self-regulate. If that's the case, how could he suddenly pass out due to insomnia?

"It's windy outside, the Crown Princess must pay attention to her health." Lily saw that it was too cold outside, so she invited Fan Qingyao inside. Anyway, the Crown Princess was able to come out of the imperial study safely, which is enough to show her support for the Hua family. In this case, there is no need for the Crown Princess to pretend to be disliked by the Queen.

Furthermore, it is reasonable for the Crown Princess to come after hearing the news that the Empress fainted.

 “Is the prince here?”

“Yan Qian has just been to the East Palace in person and heard that the emperor sent the Crown Prince to meet with Zhang Ping from Nancheng and Fengcheng. He is not in the palace at the moment.”

The emperor asked Baili Fengming to meet the two Zhang Pings?

Fan Qingyao's heart skipped a beat. He estimated that the emperor had already decided to send people to the two cities to investigate.

The two people were talking as they walked inside and saw Concubine Liu Shu sitting in a chair in a daze.

This is Fan Qingyao's first time to take a closer look at Concubine Liu Shu. Her face is slightly younger than that of the Empress. She is not as enchanting as Concubine Yu. Instead, she has the tenderness and sweetness of a Jiangnan woman. Such a person, even if she is raped again. As time passes, there is a kind of beauty of Xiaojiabiyu.

Concubine Liu Shu was probably frightened by what happened just now, and she still can't come back to her senses.

When Fan Qingyao met the concubines in the harem, of course he would take the initiative and say, "I have met Liu Shufei."

 In this palace, there are two concubines. One is the mother-in-law of the eighth prince, Concubine Zhang Shu.

 The other one is the concubine of the second prince in front of me, Concubine Liu Shu.

Normally, concubines in the harem would never have the same title, but it happened that this happened. It was Concubine Liu Shu who was conferred the title of Shu first, and then Concubine Zhang Shu climbed all the way up and successfully flew onto the branch. It was because the Ministry of Internal Affairs forgot that there was also the title of Concubine Liu Shu. That was why when sending the title to the emperor, there was an extra Shu, and the emperor happened to choose another Shu.

At this moment, two concubines came out of the palace.

Your Majesty’s golden words, even if they are wrong, cannot be changed.

 After all, no one dares to say that the emperor is wrong.

Concubine Liu Shu came to her senses after hearing the sound, and gave an ugly smile, "The Crown Princess is here."

Fan Qingyao nodded, "I heard that my mother fainted, so I rushed over to take a look."

Concubine Liu Shu nodded and had no intention of speaking again.

Fan Qingyao is not familiar with Concubine Liu Shu, and the second prince and concubine only showed kindness to her last time when they were in Pinglai Palace, so Fan Qingyao will naturally not take the initiative to get close to Concubine Liu Shu at this time.

 The two of them were sitting on one side, one on the left, and the room was so quiet that it made people feel nervous.

I don’t know how long it took before Lily walked out of it and said, "Princess, the Queen is awake."

Fan Qingyao stood up after hearing the sound and walked towards his bed.

On the bed where she was sleeping, Queen Zhenxi was looking at the tent above her head in a daze, looking a little confused.

Fan Qingyao thought that the queen had not recovered yet, so she walked to Ji Hongliao's side and asked, "Where is the queen injured?"

Ji Hongliao shook his head, "There are no injuries, and the Queen's pulse is normal."

Fan Qingyao was stunned, "Normal?"

“One breath comes four times, neither floating nor sinking, neither big nor small, calm and gentle, with consistent rhythm.”

This is a sign of flat pulse, and it is indeed a normal pulse condition.

But whether it was Fan Qingyao or Ji Hongliao, the expressions on their faces were not at all relaxed, but on the contrary, they were darkened.

 People's pulse changes with the body. A normal person's pulse is flat, but whether it is strenuous exercise or holding one's breath, the pulse will change in an instant.

When Ji Hongliao just arrived at Fengyi Palace and took the Queen’s pulse, the Queen was obviously still unconscious. The pulse at this time was naturally a little weaker, so that we could determine the reason for the coma.

Ji Hongliao was sure that even if the Queen was unconscious just now, her pulse would be stable.

 But it is such an ordinary pulse condition that makes it even more weird!

Lily also recognized Ni Duan, and her face turned pale, "Is it difficult? Could it be that someone poisoned the Queen? But the Queen's food has always been in the hands of slaves, and others can't touch it at all!"

Fan Qingyao thought about Lily's appearance just now and knew that she was really worried about the Queen.

Lily is an old man who is with the Empress. She was also the dowry who entered the palace with the Empress back then. Lily has no doubt about the importance of the Empress.

 But if it wasn’t Lily, who could have this ability?
