Yi Wei lowered his voice, "Why don't we find someone to go to Chengde and leave the palace to get rid of her?" So that she will never be able to return to the palace again! ”

"Nope." Concubine Xi vetoed, "There are so many guards in Chengde's palace, it's not easy to start, and even if you can really get rid of her, the emperor will definitely investigate this matter, and if you don't find out, you won't stop, this palace can't take such a big risk." ”

Yi Wei nodded thoughtfully and muttered, "Niangniang is right, it seems that we can only wait for this time, waiting for Concubine Qian to come back." ”

Concubine Xi sneered, and her voice was raised, "Who said that this palace is only going to wait?" Now it's just that I can't move the concubine, and now it's a good time to catch up with the plague, how can this palace miss it lightly? ”

She had already made up her mind, and in the palace, in addition to the cuttlefish, she had other people she wanted to get rid of.

Yi Wei looked at Concubine Xi suspiciously, and didn't understand what she meant for a while.

Concubine Xi gently touched the golden armor on her fingers, and the corners of her mouth hooked a smile of unknown meaning, "Concubine Ning has repeatedly hindered the plans of this palace, and ruined the good things of this palace, of course this palace can't spare her!" ”

Yi Wei suddenly realized that the person they were going to deal with this time was Concubine Ning.

"Niangniang, what are your plans?"

"There is a palace maid in Zhongcui Palace who was taken away with an epidemic, and the palace sent another person to see Ping'er, Ping'er will follow the instructions of the palace to put something in Concubine Ning's tranquilizer, it is estimated that it will not be long before Concubine Ning dies unconsciously." Concubine Xi said proudly, very satisfied with her plan.

Yi Wei couldn't help but be a little worried, "However, the emperor will definitely investigate strictly, and the slave and maid are afraid of ......."

"There's nothing to be afraid of." Concubine Xi was full of confidence, "The poison that Ping'er gave to Concubine Ning is not an ordinary poison. The symptoms of this poison are very similar to the plague, they are all fever and vomiting, presumably Concubine Ning will only be regarded as having the plague, and will not arouse suspicion. ”

Yi Hui's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly praised, "Niangniang is really smart." And so it goes. Concubine Ning will no longer be able to go against you. ”

Concubine Xi's eyes gradually became cold, Concubine Ning, you are to blame for this point. I can't complain about this palace!

Zhongcui Palace.

Concubine Ning had already learned the news that the cuttlefish was going to Chengde to leave the palace, and at this moment, Cai Ling was asking to see her outside Zhong Cui's palace.

After Cai Ling entered the inner room, she saluted. "Concubine Ning's mother is blessed with Jin'an." ”

Concubine Ning sighed regretfully, "Concubine Qian has just passed. Bengong hasn't had time to say goodbye to her, alas, why did you go in such a hurry, Cailing. What did Concubine Qian send you for? ”

Cai Ling replied in a low voice, "Back to Niangniang, before leaving, my master said that she didn't have time to say goodbye to you." So let the slave bring you a letter. ”

Concubine Ning took the letter paper in Cai Ling's hand and looked at it carefully. The handwriting on the letter was sloppy, apparently written by the cuttlefish while he was in a hurry.

The letter said that Concubine Xi was treacherous and slippery, so Concubine Ning must be careful, and the cuttlefish also told Concubine Ning about the grievances between Tong Changzai and Concubine Xi, reminding Concubine Ning that she could use Tong Changzai to deal with the one in Jingren Palace.

After Concubine Ning read it, she immediately burned the letter so as not to be seen by others. She understands that the cuttlefish has good intentions, but now that the epidemic is prevalent in the palace, presumably Concubine Xi will be busy with this, and she should not have any other thoughts to deal with her, so she naturally relaxed her vigilance.

After Cai Ling left, Concubine Ning was busy taking care of the affairs of Zhong Cui Palace, and a palace maid in Zhong Cui Palace was sick, and she had to deal with the matter properly.

"Ping'er, come here." Concubine Ning commanded.

Ping'er is a new palace maid, to replace the sick one, she looks honest and honest, not at all like a person with a heart, she hurriedly walked over, and replied innocently, "What do you want from Niangniang?" ”

"You go and take out all the things in Zijuan's house and burn them, don't leave any of them, you must clean them up, and then lock the house, that room can't be inhabited for the time being."

"Yes, sissy."

Concubine Ning instructed again, "During this time, you will first live with Xiao Tao, and from now on, Zijuan's errand will be taken over by you, do you hear?" ”

Ping'er replied repeatedly, "Yes, the slave obeys the order, please rest assured." ”

After dinner, Ping'er finished her work and sat in the house to mend clothes, at this time, Xiao Tao, who was in the same room, got up and went to the dining room.

"Little Sister Peach, what are you going to do here?" Ping'er asked casually.

Xiao Tao replied while busy with the medicine in her hand, "I'm boiling medicine for my mother, our mother hasn't been sleeping very well recently, so I asked the doctor to prescribe some medicine to calm the nerves and make up for sleep, and I have to drink a bowl before going to bed every day." ”

Ping'er rolled her eyes and said with a smile, "Then I'll accompany you here to make medicine." ”

To have someone to be a companion, of course Xiao Tao is also willing, during the period of boiling medicine, the two of them chatted with each other without a match, and they got along very well.

This medicine has to be boiled for half an hour, and halfway through, Xiao Tao's stomach ache and it is convenient to go out, so I asked Ping'er to read the medicine for her first. When she came back, the medicine was still boiling, and Ping'er was looking at the medicine intently, and nothing went wrong.

After the medicine was boiled, Xiao Tao took the medicine to Concubine Ning, who drank the medicine as usual before going to sleep, and looked the same as usual.

At night, Concubine Ning slept groggyly, her clothes were soaked with sweat, she felt very uncomfortable, and she wanted to open her mouth to call someone, but the voice was very weak, and no one heard her for a long time.

She tried to get up and get out of bed with her red and swollen eyes as far as she could, but before she could sit up straight, vomit poured up from her stomach, and she vomited so much that she couldn't hold it anymore and fell asleep weakly.

Finally waited until dawn.

When Xiao Tao entered the house and asked Concubine Ning to get up, she was startled by the scene in front of her, Concubine Ning was lying on the bed with a pale face and a sweaty face, the quilt on her body was covered with filth, she ran out in a panic and hurriedly went to find the imperial doctor.

Imperial Physician Shen and Imperial Physician Xu came to Zhongcui Palace together, and when they saw Concubine Ning so weak, Imperial Physician Xu immediately concluded that she was infected with the plague, and Imperial Physician Shen thought the same way at first, but when he saw Concubine Ning's neck, he couldn't help but have doubts.

Concubine Ning's neck was pale and slender, not much different from usual, but the necks of other patients were all red and swollen, which was very different from Concubine Ning.

Imperial Physician Shen carefully examined Concubine Ning's tongue again and found that her tongue was blue and purple, which was obviously poisoning.

Imperial Physician Xu snorted impatiently, "This is an obvious plague, Imperial Physician Shen, do you think it's poisoning?" Who would dare to poison Concubine Ning? ”

Before Imperial Physician Shen could speak, a loud announcement came from outside: Concubine Xi has arrived! (To be continued.) )
