No one spoke in the hall, and the tenth prince Yan Conghe sat there, looking at the grandmother who had been knocked out with a calm face, and there were a few maids kneeling next to the grandmother.

Wei Rushi's face turned slightly pale, and she bit her lip towards the things on the table, and her eyes kept flashing.

"Your Highness, fainted." The guard in charge of the cane responsibility reported that the moisturized grandmother who had lived in the palace could only resist a dozen times, Yan Conghe was unmoved, "Drag it out, wake up and continue to fight, and fight until it stops." ”

After Yan Conghe finished speaking, the two maids kneeling there trembled slightly, and after Mama was dragged out, there was a sound of splashing water outside, followed by begging for mercy and howling, and the people in the hall who listened panicked.

Suddenly, I don't know if it was a slippery hand or deliberate, when Yan Conghe put down the cup, the lid of the cup slipped directly from the table and fell to the ground, and some of the people who were kneeling on the ground were shocked when the sound of breaking sounded, and they were more cautious.

Wei Rushi tugged at the handkerchief in her hand, her knuckles were pinched white, and then Yan Conghe spoke again, but it was the Tenth Imperial Concubine: "You are in charge of the middle feed, and the affairs of the house are all handled by you, and Concubine Qi gave birth to such a big thing, why didn't you send someone to wait at the door." ”

The tenth imperial concubine raised her head, this matter should be said wrong, it shouldn't be attributed to her fault, it was Concubine Wei who led people to deliberately block at the door, otherwise she would have entered the mansion early.

"You don't have to feel aggrieved." Yan Conghe saw her thoughts and reproached, "As the imperial concubine, you don't even have the ability to control the overall situation, if something big happens in the future, are you still ignorant!" ”

The Tenth Imperial Concubine's shoulders trembled slightly: "Your Highness, this matter is the negligence of the concubine, and the concubine thinks that the people sent by His Highness will bring people over."

"Don't you know about this palace!" Yan Conghe suddenly slapped the table, the cups and saucers shook, and the Ten Imperial Concubines were also a little stunned, could this matter be blamed on her head?

At this moment, Yan Conghe picked up the cup in his hand and smashed it on the ground, and was furious at the two maids: "Who ordered you to put medicine in the tea!" ”

The two maids were already stunned, and the screams of the grandmother outside the house were still coming in, and just now the grandmother was tortured because she said one more sentence "She was sent by the concubine Niangniang, and Her Highness can't do this to her", they are just maids in the palace, and no one knows if they are killed.

One of them hurriedly kowtowed and admitted his mistake: "Your Highness spares your life, the slave doesn't know, the slave and maid are just guarding the attic, it's Mother Li, Mother Li asked me to change the tea, I don't know that there is a problem in the tea, Your Highness spares my life!" ”

The maid said that Mother Li was the housekeeper mother on duty in the inner courtyard, and her legs were still weak when she knelt down when she was escorted in, and she trembled and held on to the ground: "Your Highness, the slave maid doesn't know, it was the Chunqiao girl who ordered it this morning, saying that the tea in the attic was old, and she gave me new tea for me to change." ”

"Where's the tea?"

"It's still there."

"Bring it up."

There is no problem with the tea brought up by the steward, it is indeed this year's new tea, Wei Rushi, who was sitting there, was slightly certain, and it had not yet fallen, Yan Conghe asked the mother: "The cup is also new?" ”

Mom was stunned: "It's new." ”

The steward immediately brought up the set of cups, Yan Conghe only used one cup when drinking tea, and the other five cups were fine, but a little contaminated powder was found on the spout of the teapot, and it was sent to the imperial doctor to see, it was sickness.

The sickness medicine in the spout of the pot poured down with the tea and melted into the cup, Yan Conghe fell asleep not long after drinking it, if it wasn't for Lu Qin to find someone, he wouldn't wake up for a few hours.

If he didn't wake up, Qi Xiangsi would be stopped at the door and not allowed to enter, and the attitude of the Ten Imperial Concubines would be inactive, how many hours would pass, where would Qi Minhua still have his life?

"Your Highness, the slave and maid really don't know, the slave and maid just ordered someone to send these to the attic according to the instructions of the Chunqiao girl, and the slave and maid didn't know that there was medicine in them." Like the two maids, the mother hurriedly begged for mercy, she just took the money and did something, but she really didn't know what was put in it.

Who is Chunqiao.

Chunqiao is Wei Rushi's personal maid, and she is the person who follows Wei Rushi to marry from the Wei Mansion.

Chunqiao, who was standing next to Wei Rushi, knelt down and lowered his head to deny: "The slaves and maids are wronged, and the slaves and maids did not tell them to do these things. ”

"I saw it, when Sister Haruhashi sent things to my mother." A kneeling maid just finished speaking, "At that time, Chunqiao also stuffed a silver hairpin for my mother." ”

"The tea leaves in the attic are old, and the slave just asked her mother to change the tea." Chunqiao denied it, and the Ten Imperial Concubines, who had been sitting there without speaking, answered lightly, "There is new tea everywhere, and there is no old tea in the house." ”

Wei Rushi raised her head to look at the imperial concubine, her eyes were covered with edge, and the handkerchief in her hand tightened.

Chunqiao looked very calm: "This slave doesn't know, I only heard that the old tea in the attic is the same, so I let people change it." ”

"And what are these?" As soon as Chunqiao's words fell, the steward on her side threw a burden in front of her, and two bottles leaked out of the untied baggage, rolled it, and rolled to Chunqiao's feet.

A crack appeared on Chunqiao's calm face, Yan Conghe saw it in his eyes, and asked someone to bring a middle-aged man in from outside: "I went to your shop to buy medicine yesterday, but this girl." ”

The middle-aged man glanced at Chunqiao and nodded: "It's her." ”

"What did she buy?"

"I bought a bottle of sickness medicine, saying that it was spring, and there were often wild cats in the yard, and I wanted to drugged them and fascinated them."

"But the bottle?"

The middle-aged man looked at the two bottles carefully and pointed to one of the white ones: "It's this." ”

"There was a wild cat intrusion in the spring garden, and the slave was worried that the mother would not be able to sleep well, and it would be difficult to kill, so she bought sickness medicine." Haruhashi followed the middle-aged man's words, and did not deny that she bought medicine, but she would never admit that she was drugged in the teapot.

"According to you, the same sickness medicine in the teapot was stolen from you without your knowledge." Yan Conghe's face became darker and darker, as if a storm was coming, Chunqiao stubbornly said, "This slave doesn't know." ”

"Come on, take her down and beat her with thirty rods, when you tell the truth, when you bring it in again."

Wei Rushi raised his head suddenly, and it was difficult to restrain him: "Your Highness! ”

Yan Conghe glanced at her: "Why, the side concubine has something to say." ”

"Thirty rods will kill you." How could Wei Rushi be willing to fold her powerful subordinates, "Now that the evidence is unknown, how can it be said that she is lying." ”

"Then Concubine Wei will explain to your maid, how can she be the master without authorization and order people to change tea, and why she used silver hairpins to buy people's hearts, and spent two silver taels to let people do things, the house has always been peaceful, I don't know, there are so many wild cats in Concubine Wei's garden."

Wei Rushi's expression froze, this was to make her admit that everything Chunqiao did was instructed by her.

said that she didn't know, Chunqiao was in charge of her own affairs, and she should be punished, and she said she knew, and then she was waiting for her

Wei Rushi was not stupid, she immediately understood the meaning of His Highness's words, he was suspecting that it was the medicine she ordered.

In the middle of his thoughts, Chunqiao had been dragged out, and the grandmother outside had long since moved, I don't know whether she was stunned or killed, the two maids trembled in fright, and soon the screams of Chunqiao came.

This is even more quiet in the hall, Wei Rushi is silent, the Ten Imperial Concubines are also very calm, Yan Conghe seems to be waiting for something, neither asking nor angry.

Qi Xiangsi stood at the door, and the situation outside the house was clearly seen, and the grandmother finally recruited, but she didn't have much strength to speak, and her voice was very soft, only the people standing next to her could hear it.

Chunqiao shouted from the beginning to begging for mercy, and her voice weakened when she went down with ten canes, and then she saw Imperial Doctor Wen coming over from the other end of the courtyard, her heart moved slightly, and she was afraid that things had just begun.

Imperial Physician Wen is here to report the situation, after all, Qi Xiangsi has not yet been crowned as a imperial physician, and all prescriptions, including the diagnosis results, have to be written by Imperial Physician Wen.

After talking about the current situation of Concubine Qi and the child, Imperial Doctor Wen ordered someone to hand over a bowl, and there was still some medicinal juice left at the bottom of the bowl.

Yan Conghe asked him, "What is this?" ”

"Back to His Royal Highness, this is the bowl where Concubine Qi drank medicine this morning, and there is saffron in it." Imperial Physician Wen said very slowly, and brought the bowl over, "The minister thinks that the sign of Concubine Qi's slippery tire in the morning is this guide." ”

The atmosphere in the hall was as quiet as death.

It is not a life-threatening thing to give the ten princes sickness, but to give the pregnant concubine Qi who is about to give birth to drink a decoction containing safflower, it is in the next life-urging talisman, which is to kill people!

"One more thing." Imperial Physician Wen looked at Yan Conghe respectfully, "The musk pill that has not been burned out has been found in the basin of the warm house. ”

After Imperial Doctor Wen finished speaking, the hall was still quiet, although Qi Xiangsi expected that premature birth was unusual, and after listening to it, he was also a little shocked, if it was the medicine taken when she was first pregnant, it was aimed at the life of the child in the womb, but it was this month, and if you didn't get it, it would be one corpse and two lives.

At this time, a soft cry sounded in her ears, Qi Xiangsi turned her head, and the magpie stood outside the door and beckoned to her: "Fifth girl, girl, please come over." ”

Qi Xiangsi glanced at the little prince who had never said a word from beginning to end, Yan Congyu turned his head to look at her, saw the magpie at the door, and nodded

After cleaning up, most of the people who were waiting inside and outside the house went, and it was much quieter, the magpie took Qi Acacia into the house, and Qi Minhua, who woke up, was lying on the bed, and his face looked much better.

"Talk less, hurt your vitality." Qi Xiangsi sat down on the edge of the bed, and without waiting for her to ask, she talked about what was going on in the front hall, "Imperial Doctor Wen said that the medicine you drank in the morning was mixed with safflower, and the pot in the warm house was filled with musk pills, and I am afraid that your premature birth is inseparable from that Wei Rushi." ”

Qi Minhua blinked and gently grabbed her: "You see it?" ”

"Originally, it was just speculation." She did have the element of blindness in what she said at the gate of the palace, but Wei Rushi's intention was too obvious, and she deliberately prevented her from entering the mansion, not just to let the child have a bad life. ”

Qi Minhua looked at her and smiled, her expression was still soft: "Thanks to you today, all I can think of is you." "At this time, no one is more suitable to come to the palace than the fifth sister, the woman can enter the delivery room, and she understands medical science, and when she realized that something was wrong, she begged His Royal Highness to send someone to the Tai Hospital to find her.

"I thought it was only Wei Rushi." Qi Xiangsi paused slightly, shook her head and said, "But she should be relieved after that." ”

Qi Minhua glanced at the inside of the bed, the premature child was weak after all, and he didn't ask for milk after birth, and he fell asleep all the time: "It's not just her who is relieved." She was also relieved that the child could grow up safely.

If she had married someone from an ordinary family, it would not have been like this, but Qi Xiangsi did not see the unwillingness and regret on Qi Min's face, maybe there was a marriage at the beginning, but the ten princes treated her sincerely well, and they could melt her for so long.

"Minying."

Qi Xiangsi looked down at her: "Well, I'm here." ”

Qi Minhua looked at her with a smile: "I heard His Highness say that King Yu is quite close to you." ”

Qi Xiangsi was slightly stunned: "Why did you suddenly say that?" ”

"There are no palace maids and maids serving in King Yu's mansion, and King Yu doesn't like women to be close." Qi Min said softly, "Before the river flood, King Yu was sick, but you took care of him for a few days, so it can be seen that he is not tired of letting you get close." ”

What kind of person was King Yu before, Qi Minhua and many young ladies in Kyoto City also heard about it, and later married to the Ten Emperors' Mansion, and then learned from the mouth of the Ten Princes, what was said outside was really not an exaggeration.

Such a temperamental King Yu can let the fifth sister take care of him closely, and those little things, all kinds of things, if you want to say nothing, Qi Minhua doesn't believe it.

Qi Xiangsi was a little helpless: "It seems that the third sister is doing well, and if you still have the heart to think about this, you don't have to worry about what lies ahead." ”

"Don't worry." Qi Minhua smiled, "Leave those things to His Highness, and he will have his own opinions." ”

The corners of Qi Xiangsi's mouth moved slightly, Qi Minhua took her hand and said, "I'm here, I won't sit still." ”

Qi Min's painting didn't look like she had escaped death, just two hours ago, she was so relieved when she pulled her, obviously the slightest mistake at that time would cause tragedy.

Qi Xiangsi laughed, a woman like her may be good if she marries anyone.

"That's you." Qi Minhua pulled the words back and sighed softly, "Their marriage is decided, how can they leave you behind." ”

"I'm not left behind." Qi Xiangsi smiled, "I can't take a break from the hospital." ”

Qi Minhua thought for a while, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he saw that Qi Xiangsi had an idea.
