Chapter 12: Showing Weakness

Maybe it's because the doctors are superb, or maybe it's because Xu Guifei is really fateful, Zhou Ying waited for more than an hour with tears in her eyes, and Xu Guifei finally came back from the ghost gate, although she lost a lot of essence and blood, and almost half of her life was consumed, but the adults and children finally survived.

Only then did the emperor spare his time to investigate the culprit behind the incident.

The palace maids and eunuchs of Mingxi Palace had their own cronies of the emperor to interrogate, but Zhou Ying was brought over by the emperor alone.

Xu Guifei had already fallen asleep after taking the medicine, the emperor didn't want to disturb, so he found another warm pavilion to sit down, and didn't even bother to drink a sip of tea, so he slapped the table and said: "You are a wicked obstacle, if you don't have something every day, how can your mother have an accident!" ”

Zhou Ying still had tears on her eyelashes, and when she heard the emperor's words, her eyes widened in surprise, "What does the emperor mean?" ”

The emperor scolded angrily: "Your mother didn't even dare to go out of the door, for fear that something would happen to the child, if you hadn't had nothing to do but offer some broken flowers, your mother would not have been teased to go to the back garden, and she would not have almost slipped the tire." ”

Zhou Ying's little face was full of disbelief, she covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and tears fell down, "It turned out that I hurt my mother." ”

Seeing that Zhou Ying really thought that he was the culprit, he admitted the crime without a defense, and cried so much that he almost turned his back on his breath, the emperor touched his nose with a weak heart, took out a handkerchief and handed it to Zhou Ying, "Quickly wipe away your tears, if your mother sees it, you won't be able to eat me." ”

Even if it was Longpa, it was all wet after a while, and Zhou Ying cried: "I'm so bad, my mother won't want me anymore." ”

The emperor was originally angry, a little girl who was not as high as the table, was frightened and cried by her two words, and cried as if the sky had fallen, the emperor rarely felt a little guilty, "Don't cry, your mother won't want you, there are other people who really hurt her,"

Zhou Ying timidly put down the veil, revealing eyes that were red and swollen like peaches, "Really? Father, don't coax me. ”

Looking at Zhou Ying's ignorant and expectant eyes, the emperor's heart softened, and he touched the top of Zhou Ying's hair, "It's true, your mother didn't wrestle in the back garden, and she didn't pick flowers or touch grass in the back garden, what does it have to do with you." ”

Zhou Ying's thin brows were loosened, and she pulled them up again, "Then who killed the concubine?" ”

The emperor has always had a good face, but when he was asked by his daughter at this time, not only was he not annoyed, but he smiled slowly, "I don't know now, but in this world, there are few people who can hide from your father, and sooner or later they will have to pay for their lives." ”

Although the emperor was smiling, there was no wrinkle at the corner of his eyes, and the smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes, which made people hear a little murderous.

Zhou Ying didn't realize it, nodded obediently, and looked at the emperor with a look of admiration.

This trip first made sure that she herself was not regarded as the culprit, secondly dispelled the emperor's anger thoughts, and finally, and most importantly, Xu Guifei was out of danger. All the goals have been achieved, and if she stays any longer, Zhou Ying is afraid of making another wave, so she is ready to point out an excuse and leave.

But before Zhou Ying could open her mouth, someone knocked on the door and came in, and it was Chen Chunlin, the imperial doctor.

This one is also an old acquaintance. When Zhou Ying pressed the sinus of the artery sinus and fell into a coma, it was the imperial doctor who rejuvenated Chen Chunlin's wonderful hands. But at this time, Chen Chunlin didn't have the heart to reminisce about the past, this time it involved the concubine, and he couldn't help but tremble after a lot of wind and waves.

The emperor asked in a deep voice, "Did you find out why the concubine had a fetal gas?" ”

Chen Chunlin faced Long Wei directly, didn't dare to hide it, and put his forehead on the cold blue tile, "Your Majesty, the noble concubine Niangniang came into contact with some kind of cold thing, so that the yin deficiency entered the body and the fetal gas moved. ”

The Emperor asked, "What kind of cold thing is it?" ”

Chen Chunlin was dripping with cold sweat, gritted his teeth and said: "There are more than 100 kinds of drugs that can cause people to slip the fetus, and most of the effects are similar, and the concubine Niangniang is not directly consumed, but only indirectly contacted. Based on the aftermath alone, Wei Chen really couldn't tell what kind of medicine it was, so please ask His Majesty to surrender. ”

Although the emperor was angry, he was not an unreasonable person, so he didn't say that he dragged Chen Chunlin down and cut him, and said after a while: "You and Qiao Rong checked the Mingxi Palace, clothes, bedding, and incense burners...... Everything that is suspicious or not, you have to check it one by one. If it doesn't work out this time, I won't tolerate it anymore. ”

Chen Chunlin took the order and left.

Zhou Ying didn't seize the opportunity to leave in time just now, and now it is difficult to get out. After all, Zhou Ying has always been filial piety and piety, and now that Xu Guifei has an eyebrow, of course Zhou Ying can't take the initiative to leave.

Fortunately, the emperor seems to have forgotten her as a person, and Zhou Ying is also happy to pretend to be a quail.

After waiting for an hour, the imperial doctor ordered Chen Chunlin to come back with a sweat, "The bedding that was replaced on the bed in the dormitory yesterday, and the cushion that was replaced by the Luohan bed in the warm pavilion......" I counted seven or eight places in a row before I took a breath, "I found the residual smell of Qu Mai." ”

Emperor Rao is scheming has always been angry, and he can't help but be angry at this moment, "So rampant, they are so bold!" ”

Chen Chunlin didn't dare to raise his head.

The emperor was so angry that his head turned red, his nose flickered, and he almost burst into flames, "Qiao Rong, bring everyone who can come into contact with these things for interrogation, I want to see which one has such a heavenly ability!" ”

Qiao Rong retreated, and after a while, a mournful and short scream came from the ear room, obviously gagged.

Zhou Ying's eyelashes trembled, and she pinched her palm fiercely, but she couldn't turn a blind eye after all, and said worriedly: "Imperial Doctor Chen, those harmful things, will they affect the body of my father, and my father also stayed in Mingxi Palace yesterday." ”

Although the emperor was still angry, Zhou Ying's childish heart made the emperor laugh, "Your mother is a woman, and she is pregnant, so she will be affected by cold things. ”

Zhou Ying raised her little face and shook the emperor's sleeve coquettishly, "Take a look, Imperial Doctor Chen is here, just stretch out your hand." ”

The emperor was so entangled by Zhou Ying that he couldn't do it, "Okay, well, I listen to you." ”

The imperial physician ordered Chen Chunlin to get the emperor's signal, hurriedly staggered up, and checked the emperor's pulse after cleaning his hands. Regardless of whether Zhou Ying made a move to relieve the siege intentionally or unintentionally, Chen Chunlin was grateful, but then, Chen Chunlin didn't think so, the emperor's vein was ......

The emperor was making Zhou Ying laugh with a relaxed face, but Chen Chunlin didn't speak for a long time, and couldn't help but smile, "What the hell is going on?" ”

Chen Chunlin avoided the important and said lightly: "Judging from the pulse of His Majesty, His Majesty has indeed come into contact with Qu Mai. However, as His Majesty said, Qumai is aimed at women for abortion, and has no effect on men, even if they do not deliberately prescribe medicine, they will be expelled on their own after a few days. ”

The emperor was keenly aware of the key and asked, "How is the weight of the concubine's contact with me compared to me?" ”

Chen Chunlin swallowed hard, "It's far from enough." ”

The soles of the emperor's feet softened, and he suddenly sat back in the prince's chair, "You mean, I am the culprit who almost slipped the concubine?" ”

Chen Chunlin knelt down with a plop, "This matter has not yet been investigated, and the minister does not dare to say anything." ”

Zhou Ying, who has been pretending to be a wallflower, secretly scolded herself for her slow legs, if she had left in time just now, she would not have bumped into this kind of truth. At this time, the emperor and the concubine couldn't take care of her, but when the two came back to their senses and bumped into this embarrassed and selfish Zhou Ying, I was afraid that they would not be pleased.
