Chapter 222: Self-Disorder
"Month contouring. www.biquge.info"Empress Liu replied lightly, glanced around the hall, didn't see Emperor Yan, and asked with a calm face: "I heard that the third prince was suddenly poisoned in the middle of the night last night, what is going on?"
Those concubines were all sitting at this time, Queen Liu was sitting directly above, Su Zixu squinted at them, and responded: "Queen Mother, Yao'er is indeed poisoned, and I am ashamed that the concubines have not found out the reason yet." ”
The other concubines were silent, quietly listening to their conversation.
"How is the third prince doing now?" asked Empress Liu, frowning.
"Hui Niangniang, Yao'er is now unconscious, and the doctors in the Tai Hospital are all helpless, even the Chang Tai Doctor said that he can only keep Yao'er for two months, if he can't find an antidote, Yao'er will ...... after two months There is no power to return to heaven. In the end, Su Zixu's tone slowed down, and he sighed while observing the expressions of those people in the hall.
Empress Liu lowered her eyes and did not answer, but Concubine Qi spoke: "Among the three princes, is it really the poison of the life-seeking grass?"
"Well, it's indeed the poison of the life-seeking grass, Yao'er is now bruised, and there is no trace of life in the past. If it weren't for the fact that Imperial Physician Chang said that Yao'er was still saved, the concubines would have mistakenly thought that Yao'er had gone. Su Zixu sighed and nodded.
"How can this be?" Concubine Qi frowned and muttered, and then, she suddenly raised her head, stared at Queen Liu, and said seriously, "The concubine remembers that the queen mother was also poisoned by the life-seeking grass three years ago, and I don't know how the queen mother solved the poison in the first place? ”
Empress Liu's face became stiff in an instant, she glanced at Concubine Qi, pulled the corners of her lips unnaturally, and said: "This palace has indeed been poisoned by the life-seeking grass, but the toxicity was relatively low at that time, and after the poisoning of this palace, there was still consciousness, and with the help of the medicine elders, it was detoxified." But now that the three princes don't even have breath in the past, if they want to talk about the way to detoxify, this palace doesn't have it. ”
"Since Yao Lao was able to save the queen's mother, he will naturally have a way to save the three princes, so it is better to ask the emperor to repair a book and ask Yao Lao to come to the capital to save the three princes. Concubine Qi sneered, looking at Queen Liu's expression with a faint hint of sarcasm.
"Yao Lao's temper is very strange, and the palace was fortunate to be treated by him by chance, and I don't know if he is willing to come to the capital. What's more, the Medicine King Valley is far away from the capital, even if Yao Lao is willing to come, it will take two months, and the water is far away from quenching his thirst, I am afraid that he has just come to the capital, and the poison on Yao'er's body has already been delayed. Empress Liu shook her head and said lightly, "Doctor Chang has excellent medical skills, on par with Yao Lao, if Taiyi Chang has no way to save Yao'er, Yao Lao is also powerless." ”
Qi Guifei denied it: "Niangniang, you can't say that, Imperial Physician Chang's medical skills are not the same as Yao Lao, how can they be compared? What's more, three years ago, Imperial Physician Chang couldn't cure your poison, but Yao Lao can." Doesn't Niang Niang want to save the three princes?"
"Sister, what do you mean by this? Bengong just wants to save Yao'er as soon as possible and not waste useless time. Empress Liu scolded unhappily, and after speaking, she was silent, looking at Concubine Qi's eyes flashing with an imperceptible fierceness.
"By the way, how did the third prince fall into the water, and why did he fall into the poison of the life-seeking grass?" After a while, Empress Liu asked.
"Niangniang, it is said that Yao'er fell into the water because the concubine did not take good care of her. On that day, the concubine took Yao'er to play in the imperial garden, and came back first because she was unwell, but she didn't expect the palace people to be optimistic about Yao'er, so he fell into the water, and he was poisoned for no reason. ”
"The poison of the life-seeking grass is a peerless poison, for no reason, why did it appear in the palace again? This kind of poison, only the queen mother in the palace has ever come into contact with it, it seems that things are not simple. Can you find out who is the poisoner?" After Concubine Qi finished speaking, from beginning to end, she glanced around the people in the hall with deep meaning, and finally her eyes stayed on Queen Liu's body, looking at it carelessly, but looking carefully at it actually had a deep meaning.
The concubines below knew that Concubine Qi was looking at them, and they all opened their eyes in a panic, lowered their heads, and didn't dare to get angry.
"Sister mean that someone deliberately let the third prince fall into the water?"
"The concubine thinks that someone is indeed framing the third prince, if it is an accident, at most it will fall into the water, how can it be poisoned? However, this is just the concubine's speculation, don't forget the queen mother. Niangniang is the master of the harem, if such a big thing happens, Niangniang will start to investigate, won't she know what the truth is when the time comes?" Qi Guifei said slowly, her eyes never leaving Queen Liu's body.
Empress Liu was uncomfortable when she was stared at by Concubine Qi, and asked with a displeased face: "I heard that the third prince fell into the water in the lake of Fengqingyuan, when the Japanese Palace didn't have time to go to that place to see, did Yue Xiurong find any abnormalities there?"
"No, the concubine only paid attention to Yao'er's safety at that time, and didn't notice anything else. Su Zixu shook his head and turned his head to look at the concubines in the hall.
Speaking of which, it was really her negligence that day, because Yao'er was in a critical situation at that time, and she also thought that Yao'er had inadvertently stumbled and fell into the lake while playing, so she didn't send someone to investigate the matter. And now, it's too late to check if you want to.
The concubines began to whisper again.
Seeing Su Zixu looking at them, he was silent again, and his eyes dodged.
"Who has Yue Xiurong offended recently, or has she had a conflict with someone?" asked Qi Guifei.
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes turned to Mu Chongyi, who was sitting closest to the entrance of the hall, and then their faces changed slightly.
Mu Chongyi was lowering her head, her face turned pale after hearing Qi Guifei's words, and then she found that everyone was looking at her, her face was flushed, she was stared at for a long time, and she was finally unhappy in her heart, and said angrily: "What are you all looking at me for? ”
After speaking, he glared at Su Zixu fiercely, and found that Su Zixu was also looking at her, like sitting on pins and needles, so anxious that tears were about to come out, stood up, stomped his feet, and explained: "I didn't do it, you can't slander me." ”
This appearance seems to be weak in the eyes of everyone, eager to defend himself, and his heart is even more suspicious.
Su Zixu's gaze shifted from outside the door to Mu Chongyi's body, glanced at her, and said nothing.
"The Queen's Mother. Mu Chongyi pointed at Su Zixu and said angrily, "The concubine did have some conflicts with Yue Xiurong a few days ago, Yue Xiurong has a high position, she is uncomfortable and wants to punish the concubine, but the concubine does not dare to complain." Moreover, this matter has long passed, how can the concubine retaliate against Yue Xiurong and hurt the third prince? ”
The others were unmoved, and there was some horror in their eyes.
"Niangniang, the concubine was wronged, and it was really not the concubine who did it. Mu Chongyi shouted aggrievedly.
After speaking, she found that everyone's eyes didn't seem to be on her body, she was puzzled, lowered her head and saw a black shadow in front of her, her face was pale, she turned around, and saw Emperor Yan who was only a few steps away from her, so frightened that she sat on the ground, and said tremblingly: "Your Majesty." ”
Everyone else stood up and saluted: "The concubine sees the emperor, and the emperor is auspicious." ”
Emperor Yan didn't answer, glanced at them lightly, and didn't open his mouth to tell them to get up.
"Why is the emperor here?" Empress Liu slowly walked up to Emperor Yan and asked aloud.
"I had been taking care of Yao'er in the side hall, and when I heard a loud noise, I thought something was wrong, so I came over to take a look. Emperor Yan replied lightly, bowed his head and glanced at Mu Chongyi at his feet, revealing a slight displeasure.
"Your Majesty, the concubines and the sisters of the harem couldn't help but say a few more words because they were worried about the body of the third prince. It was the concubine who was not thoughtful and disturbed the emperor, and asked the emperor to forgive me. Empress Liu replied with a sneer.
