Chapter 165, Concubine Hui's Death (I)
On the sixteenth day of the fifth month of Qianlong, the time is right.
The emperor returned from the next dynasty and was about to go to the apse, but Wang Qin knelt down crying, kowtowed, and said: "Your Majesty!
The smile on the emperor's face instantly stiffened: "What did you say?!"
Wang Qin hurriedly said: "Concubine Shu has to go, the slave really can't stop it!"
"How long have you been there?!" The emperor couldn't help but feel anxious, last night in the queen's bedroom, he undoubtedly called Ming'er's small words in his dream, with the queen's jealous and ruthless temperament, he would take the opportunity to deal with Ming'er......
"It's been an hour since the mother went. Wang Qin hurriedly replied.
"Bastard!!" the emperor was furious and kicked Wang Qin fiercely.
"Ouch!" Wang Qin rolled on the ground, screaming in pain.
"Swing the Moon Kaiyun Palace!!" The emperor shouted and drove, but in fact, he couldn't wait to prepare Luan Yu at the bottom, so he ran all the way to the queen's bedroom.
Carved moon Kaiyun Palace.
The queen was surprised why Concubine Hui suddenly had seizures all over her body, only to see Concubine Hui lying on the ground, curled up, her face slowly becoming cyanotic and ugly, and she really didn't look like she was pretending.
At this moment, the door of the temple was pushed open with a bang. The emperor was still wearing court clothes, and he was already sweating profusely all the way.
When the emperor looked at the hall, he was sitting peacefully on a chair, his complexion was ruddy, and it didn't seem like there was something wrong at all. On the contrary, Concubine Hui fell to the ground, her face was purple, as if it was very difficult to breathe.
Seeing this, the queen hurriedly got up and stepped forward. said in a panic: "Your Majesty, the concubine sent Concubine Hui to question, but somehow." Concubine Hui suddenly fell from her chair, and she didn't know what kind of illness she had!"
The emperor glanced at Concubine Hui on the ground, frowned, and shouted: "What are you doing in a daze! Why don't you quickly carry Concubine Hui to the side hall and send the imperial doctor here!!"
"Huh!" the emperor spoke, and the eunuchs on the left and right dared to hesitate for half a minute, and immediately lifted Concubine Hui and went to the side hall.
Looking at the Emperor's eager tone. Seeing the hot sweat lying on the emperor's cheeks again, the queen secretly clenched her fists. Does the emperor care so much about Concubine Hui's slut?! If the emperor sees Yang Yi's confession......
When the queen thought of this, she said, "Your Majesty." The eunuch Yang Yi has confessed in full, and the confession is also invited to the emperor. With that, the queen picked up a piece of confession from Mama Chen's hand and presented it with both hands.
The emperor's face was irritated. "We'll talk about it later!" the Emperor turned his head to look at Ming. "Is Concubine Shu okay?"
Hao Ming hurriedly saw a blessing, "The concubine is fine, but I was a little frightened when I saw Concubine Hui's appearance." With that, she smiled softly at the emperor.
The queen gritted her teeth and said, "Your Majesty! In this confession, in addition to confessing to the murder of the emperor's heir in the womb of Concubine Shu, there is also a crime in the early feudal mansion. The concubine had to report it. ”
"The crime of the Domain?" the Emperor frowned, "When Concubine Hui was in the Domain. It's just that she is a concubine, what kind of crime can she commit? It makes the queen have to report it?!" The emperor's words seemed to be ironic.
The queen said with a straight face: "Your Majesty, the emperor went out of the palace to visit the assassination of Prince Yi, and there is another inside story!"
"What are you talking about?" the emperor's expression was a little shocked, and then he snorted coldly, "Could it be that the empress means that it was not Hongshi who assassinated me, but someone else?!"
The queen said proudly: "It was naturally Hongshi who assassinated the emperor, but Yang Yi confessed that the Gao family, who was still a family of the Internal Affairs Office at that time, had insight into Hongshi's intention to assassinate the emperor, but deliberately concealed it, so Concubine Hui could take this opportunity to stand up and win the emperor's favor!"
The emperor's face turned cold, "Didn't the queen forget that Concubine Hui was still pregnant at that time!"
The queen raised her voice without flinching: "Yes! Concubine Hui also knew that she was pregnant! However, before that, the emperor did not favor Concubine Hui too much. Concubine Hui is not satisfied with this, she wants to get the emperor's favor, so she does not hesitate to sacrifice the son in her womb!"
"Nonsense!!" The emperor was furious, and his roar resounded through the Kaiyun Hall of the Broken Moon.
The queen immediately handed over the confession again with both hands, "This is written in the confession, not a word or half is made up by the concubines, please read it to the emperor." ”
The emperor snatched the confession, only to see that it was densely written, including forcing Ji to wear the musk-smoked clothes, and the previous intention to seize the son of Jia Concubine, after being rejected by Jia Concubine, he bribed Xu Changzai and blamed Shu Concubine with rouge, and in his early years, he tried every means to make Yi Guiren unstable, so that he had a miscarriage and other crimes, all of which were written in an orderly manner!
The queen looked at the emperor's gradually cold and piercing face, so she took the opportunity to say: "Your Majesty, the confession is clearly written, even who handled it, when she noticed Hongshi's intentions, and even the one who leaked the emperor's whereabouts back then, it was also Concubine Hui!!"
The emperor threw the confession on the ground and stomped on his feet, "No wonder - when I left the palace, I was found out by Hongshi!! whereabouts"
The enraged emperor's eyes were faintly red, as if he was about to devour people. Even the guilt that was revealed at the beginning was just a joke! He was fooled like a fool!!
At this time, the original judge Zhang Qingjian came in and replied: "The emperor, the queen, and Concubine Hui are sick, and from the pulse, they should be poisoned!"
When Ming heard this, he immediately covered his lips and showed a look of surprise: "Poisoning? How is this possible?" Concubine Hui just took a sip of tea!"
When the queen heard this, she immediately shouted: "The tea can't be poisonous, otherwise why is Duhui Concubine poisoned, but Shu Concubine is so good?"
The emperor glanced at the two tea cups on the small table, and hurriedly asked, "Concubine Shu also feels uncomfortable there?!"
Hao Ming hurriedly shook his head: "The concubine is not uncomfortable, I don't think I am poisoned." ”
The emperor was not at ease, and immediately ordered: "Zhang Qingjian, give Concubine Shu a pulse!"
Seeing this, Hao Ming had no choice but to sit on the chair, Zhang Qingjian took a thin silk handkerchief and covered her wrist, touched her pulse slightly, and then said: "Concubine Shu's pulse is peaceful, and there are no symptoms of poisoning." ”
Hearing this, the emperor breathed a sigh of relief, stared at the two tea cups, and asked the queen: "After Concubine Hui came, did she only drink a sip of tea?!"
When the queen saw that the emperor was suspicious of her, her face was immediately full of grievances: "That's true, but--but the concubine didn't poison her!"
The emperor said lightly: "Then check it out!"
Zhang Qingjian hurriedly said "yes", then stepped forward, first picked up the tea with Mingming, licked it with his fingers, and then said: "Concubine Shu's tea is indeed non-toxic." As he spoke, he picked up Concubine Hui's cup of tea again, Zhang Qingjian sniffed it, and his face changed, so that he stood cautiously and licked it a little, and then Zhang Qingjian hurriedly spit on his sweat towel, and quickly picked up the tea and rinsed his mouth.
The queen saw it in her eyes, and her face turned pale.
Zhang Qingjian bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, there is a mandala in this tea!!"
Yu Ming also showed a slight look of surprise, you must know that the smell of the mandala is very light, and after being diluted in the tea, it can hardly taste anything, this chapter Qingjian is a good tongue, and it can be identified at once. It can be seen that the medical skills of the imperial doctors are really not to be underestimated!
Zhang Qingjian immediately pulled a eunuch and said, "Immediately boil mung beans with licorice and give it to Concubine Hui!"
The method of detoxification is also very correct...... In this case, it would be a pity that Concubine Hui would not die.
The queen's face was full of disbelief, and she knelt down with a puff, "Your Majesty, the concubine really didn't poison her!"
The emperor glanced at the queen coldly, "This is the queen's bedroom, and the tea is also given by the queen!
The queen's face was full of panic, she glanced at the hall, and finally her eyes fell on Hao Ming, she hurriedly pointed at Hao Ming and shouted: "Concubine Shu and Concubine Hui are close to each other, it must be Concubine Shu who took the opportunity to poison!!"
Banxia, who was behind Shi Liming, immediately stood up and said, "Your Majesty, our mother has even touched the teacup!"
Hao Ming looked at the emperor with a straight face, and said calmly: "Yes, the concubine has not touched the tea cup of Concubine Hui, if the emperor does not believe this, you can ask Concubine Hui's eunuch, or when Concubine Hui wakes up, it will be clearer to ask her!"
The emperor snorted coldly, "If Concubine Fang is poisoned, but under the eyes of the queen, could it be that the queen is blind?
"Concubine ......" The queen was speechless for a moment, her body trembled, her heart flashed, and she hurriedly said: "The concubine knows, it's Concubine Hui! It was Concubine Hui who poisoned herself! She plotted to kill the emperor's heir, and the evidence is conclusive! It was originally a capital crime! Instead of being given death by the emperor, it is better to seek death by yourself, and then blame the concubine!!"
The queen's guess was a little more coherent than saying that it was Xuan Ming's poisoning, and Xuan Ming smiled secretly, which sounds quite smooth. It's a pity that the emperor obviously doesn't believe it.
At this time, Concubine Hui's entourage eunuch came to report with joy: "Concubine Hui is awake!"
When the emperor heard this, he immediately said, "I'll take a look!" and the empress immediately followed.
The west side hall of the Kaiyun Hall of the Carved Moon was originally used to detain the magistrate woman these days, but now it is temporarily used by Concubine Hui. On the bed, the cyanosis on Concubine Hui's face had faded by half, but the whole person seemed to have been drained of her soul, and she looked lifeless.
The imperial doctor reported in a low voice: "The mandala in Concubine Hui's body has penetrated into the internal organs, although she woke up for a while, but ...... Concubine Hui was already at a loss, but now she is highly poisonous, I am afraid that it will be ...... I can't get past this year. ”
When he heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that the mandala cultivated in the Medicine Garden World was indeed more poisonous. Even if the doctor treats it in time and the medicine is symptomatic, it is over after all, and Concubine Hui's life will last a few more days at most.
"Your Majesty ......" Concubine Hui saw the arrival of the emperor, and her eyes seemed to be immediately bright. (To be continued.) )
PS: This is an addition to the monthly pass owed last month, so I won't mark them one by one. I owe nearly thirty chapters in total, so Yuni is directly nine thousand this month, and the third one is to repay the debt and add more.
