Chapter 20: Poisoning
Qin Leling continued: "I checked Niangniang's pulse yesterday and found that Niangniang's pulse was unstable. The outside is void and the inside is strong, presumably using the elixir to lift the body for the mother. ”
Imperial Physician Jiang and Imperial Physician Zhang looked at each other, and then Imperial Physician Jiang said: "What the girl said is very true, five days ago, we used a jade lotus for Niangniang, and added a little to Niangniang's medicine every day, and it didn't stop until yesterday. ”
There was a lot of respect in Imperial Physician Jiang's words, and Imperial Physician Zhang was also ashamed: "Niangniang's illness seems to be like a wind cold, but it is not a wind cold. We only found out more than a month after Niangniang's illness, and we have not found out the cause so far. ”
"Have you ever thought that Niangniang may not have been sick in the first place, but was poisoned?" Qin Leling slowly analyzed.
"Poison?"
Everyone immediately changed their faces, in the harem, this is not something to be said casually. If there is no evidence, the rumors will confuse the public, and the worst will be widely implicated.
Qin Leling hurriedly reassured: "Don't panic, I haven't decided yet, in a few days, I'll see how effective my medication will be before making a decision." ”
After understanding the situation, there was nothing to do, and after everyone left, only Imperial Doctor Hu stayed.
This Imperial Physician Hu didn't speak just now, but now he couldn't pull his face to take the initiative to speak.
Qin Leling said: "Is there anything else going on with Imperial Doctor Hu?" ”
Imperial Physician Hu's face softened a lot, and he spoke a little politely, "What Miss Qin said just now, I have also suspected it for a long time. ”
"Is it 'poison'?" Qin Leling asked tentatively.
Imperial Physician Hu nodded slightly: "It's just that I haven't found out what kind of poison has such an effect, so I don't dare to make a conclusion." ”
"It's nothing, I'm just guessing."
Seeing that Imperial Physician Hu still didn't leave, Qin Leling had no choice but to ask again: "Is there anything else about Imperial Physician Hu?" ”
I saw that Imperial Doctor Hu gritted his teeth and said: "The old minister doesn't know the girl's ability, he judges people by her appearance, and there are many offenses in his words, and I hope the girl will forgive me." ”
didn't expect Imperial Doctor Hu to come out like this, Qin Leling didn't know how to answer for a while. Imperial Physician Hu was respectful, his old waist was half-bent, and he was really apologizing.
This Imperial Doctor Hu is really more serious, Qin Leling held back a smile and said, "I am an inexperienced little girl, but I can't afford your gift." ”
Saying that, he hurriedly helped the imperial doctor up, but he refused to get up, until Qin Leling said, I forgive you, forgive it, get up quickly, this Imperial Doctor Hu is willing to get up.
It just so happened that Qin Muqing came to find her junior sister, and she felt incredible when she saw this scene. Yesterday in the Tai Hospital, he and Mrs. Hu passed by head-on, politely saluting, as if he didn't see him, he walked by expressionlessly without squinting. How is this posture now?
Seeing someone coming in, Imperial Physician Hu said goodbye and left.
Qin Muqing said: "What's wrong with Imperial Doctor Hu?" ”
Qin Leling raised her eyebrows, "Of course I was conquered by your junior sister." ”
Qin Muqing shook his head helplessly.
At this moment, a palace maid ran over, her face was very anxious, "Girl, our mother suddenly has chest tightness, go and take a look." ”
When she arrived, Concubine Shu was pulling the bed curtain with her hands, her chest was rising and falling, and her face was painful. The surrounding palace maids were in a hurry, and Qin Leling said loudly: "Everyone disperse!" ”
Everyone dispersed, Qin Leling hurriedly took off the clothes on the upper half of Concubine Shugui's body, and stabbed the silver needle in her chest. Concubine Shu gradually calmed down, and just as everyone was breathing a sigh of relief, Concubine Shu suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood, which frightened the palace maids on the side.
Qin Leling said: "Hurry up and clean up your mother." ”
She probed the blood on the ground with a silver needle, and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, as expected.
Seeing that it was cleaned up, Qin Leling stepped forward and asked, "Do you feel better?" ”
Concubine Shu's face was much better, and she nodded slightly.
"The mother has been nested in the room for a long time, and the ventilation is not good. It's a sunny day, can you go outside with me? ”
The eldest palace maid beside Concubine Shu immediately looked embarrassed and said, "Before, the imperial doctor said that Niangniang was infected with wind and cold and couldn't go out to see the wind. ”
Concubine Shu waved her hand and said, "It's okay, Miss Qin, as a doctor, must have her reasons." ”
Qin Leling smiled: "Don't worry, I will promise to make your mother foolproof." ”
Concubine Shu painted lightly with light makeup, dressed in gorgeous clothes, and covered up her sick color, which looked very soft and charming. Supported by two palace maids, slowly moving forward on the precise cobblestone path, the time is infinite, and even the flowers in the garden have to be compared.
Concubine Shu's mood slowly brightened, and said, "I've been lying in bed for nearly two months, and now I can't walk smoothly. ”
Qin Leling said: "If the mother is tired, you can take a rest, and you can sit in the sun for an hour or two." ”
After walking for a while, I walked to a rockery, and the concubine was not supported, so she rested in a small pavilion not far away.
Qin Leling didn't dare to go far, so he had to wander back and forth boredly. was sitting on the rockery and was bored, when I saw the senior brother strolling over.
Qin Muqing also saw her and said, "Ling'er, why are you here, are Concubine Shu all right?" ”
"She's fine, she's in the pavilion over there."
Qin Muqing jumped onto the rockery and sat next to Qin Leling.
Qin Leling said: "Sure enough, as I thought, she was actually poisoned."
"What poison?"
"It's a fake wind chill."
Qin Leling recalled the past: "I still remember that when I rescued Xiaoli, she was sick and dying at that time, and at first I thought she was infected with a severe cold. After the diagnosis and treatment of my master and I, Xiaoli not only did not get better, but became more strict. ”
Of course, Qin Muqing remembered that five years ago, Ling'er slipped out of the valley to play, and when she came back, she brought a thin and seriously ill pear. Ling'er stole out to play and was known by the second master because of this, and she was punished very badly.
Qin Leling continued: "Later, the master found out that Xiao Li's illness was not wind cold, but a poison called bacterial coagulation. The symptoms of poisoned people are similar to wind cold, so it is also called false wind cold, but the treatment method is very different. If you keep treating it according to the wind and cold, the poisoned person will definitely die. Senior brother, you said that Concubine Shu is so favored in the palace, who dares to poison her? ”
Qin Muqing smiled slightly and said, "There are many concubines in the palace, and if Concubine Shu is so favored, it will attract people's eyes." And, did you know that there is a queen in this palace? ”
The phoenix pattern can be seen everywhere in the concubine's bedroom, Qin Leling thought that the queen was dead, and the concubine was the largest in the harem, so she dared to decorate the palace with the phoenix pattern symbolizing the queen's identity, and now it seems to be a blatant provocation.
Concubine Shugui's gall is too fat, this will cost her life. No matter how unfavored the queen is, she is also a queen, and the official is crushing people to death.
"Senior brother, do you want to sue everyone that Concubine Shu was poisoned."
Qin Leling was about to discuss with his senior brother, Qin Muqing said, "Someone." ”
Qin Leling looked around and saw Chu Han standing on the side of the rockery with his hands on his chest. He changed his outfit today, no longer in black, but in the costume of a prince. The hair was tied up high with a purple and gold crown, a scarlet robe was embroidered with unicorn patterns, and a jade belt was tied around the waist, full of royal momentum.
Qin Leling jumped and jumped down.
A woman with a bright face fell from the sky, but the expressionless prince didn't react much, but his face was still calm, and said, "Miss Qin." ”
The woman seemed to not know him, and said, "Your Royal Highness the Fifth Prince, may I ask what is your name?" ”
