Chapter 41: A Contest
Early the next morning, after Xia He pushed the door in, he said to Yun Yi: "Madam, the personal palace maid of the eldest prince knelt outside and said that there was something to report. ”
"Oh, why is she in such a hurry to say something, and she has to kneel down to report it?" Yun Yi said casually, not taking it too seriously.
"Yes, I did something wrong, I don't ask for forgiveness from my wife, I just ask for the health of the eldest prince. ”
Yun Yi's eyes were cold: "Let her in!"
Xiao Yue lowered her head and followed Xia He into Yun Yi's room, her legs trembled slightly, she didn't walk very steadily, she could see her apprehension, of course, she knelt for a lot of time was also one of the reasons.
"Madam!" As soon as Xiao Yue saw Yun Yi, she knelt down, and the wailing voice, I didn't know that I thought I had seen the savior, and I couldn't hurry to hug my thighs.
In fact, Xiao Yue did hug Yun Yi's thigh, only to see Xiao Yue kneel down and walk in front of Yun Yi, and couldn't help but hug Yun Yi's thigh, crying: "Madam, the slave is sorry for you, I'm sorry for the eldest prince~!"
Yun Yi held back the twitching desire at the corner of her mouth, and said coldly: "What do you want to look like with this appearance, I don't know and think that my Purple Secluded Palace has no rules." If you have something to say, don't toss these, it's annoying to look at it. Get up and talk well!"
Xiao Yue didn't seem to expect that the practice she had rehearsed countless times in her mind would be immediately rejected by Yun Yi, but she still didn't dare to stand up, and she didn't dare to say it until she knelt.
Yun Yi didn't say much, she knew very well what good things this palace maid had done, so she wouldn't give her too much sympathy. Yun Yi sat aside and said lightly: "Let's talk about it, what have you done, as for you to do this." ”
"Madam, the slave is sorry for you and the eldest prince~!" Xiaoyue said bitterly.
"Why are you sorry for us?"
"Slave maid, slave maid accepted other people's benefits and did bad things to the eldest prince. ”
"What did you do?" Yun Yi's voice was tinged with nervousness, and her tone instantly became much colder.
Now that Xiao Yue can't turn back, Xiao Yue gritted her teeth and said: "A few months ago, the sachet that Madame sewed for the eldest prince, the slave maid was instigated by others and secretly added something to the sachet. ”
Yun Yi's expression was tense, and he said hurriedly: "You moved the things of Tian'er, what did you add to it?"
"The slave maid didn't know, but not long ago, the eldest prince's sachet was torn, and the medicinal herbs in it were going to continue to be used, and she wanted the Qinglian girl to see it, and it was estimated that those people were in a hurry, so they asked the slave and maid to pick up the things again. They originally let the slaves and maids burn them directly, but the slaves and maids kept a hand, and some of them remained. ”
Satsuki said, taking the remaining Anonymous grass out of her sleeve. Yun Yi's eyes flashed, but he didn't say that he was familiar with this medicinal herb, but wondered, "What is this?"
"This, the slave and the maid don't know, the slave and the maid just obey the order, and the specific put in the sachet is not clear. ”
"Xia He, hurry up and send someone to summon Qinglian and let her see what this is!"
Xia He went out and came back not long before he nodded at Yun Yi. Yun Yi looked at Xiao Yue and said in a fierce voice: "Who told you to harm my child, whose person are you?"
Xiao Yue kowtowed and said: "Madam, Xiao Yue is not someone else's subordinate, but forced by life, they are persecuted by their father and mother, and Xiao Yue is forced to make a big mistake." Those people are extremely mysterious, except for knowing that a palace maid who doesn't know which palace is delivering news to the slave maid, no one has ever seen the slave maid. Mrs. Mingjian, Mrs. Mingjian. The slave really didn't mean it, the slave really didn't know anything. ”
Yun Yi stared at Xiao Yue and didn't say anything, and for a while, except for the sound of Xiao Yue kowtowing and begging for mercy, there was no other sound in the Ziyou Palace.
When Qinglian arrived, she saw Yun Yi sitting on the main seat, her expression cold, and Xia He standing on the side, her expression was also solemn. A palace maid with blood on her forehead bowed her head and stood beside Yun Yi with a nervous expression.
As soon as Qinglian arrived, Yun Yi immediately got up and hurriedly said, "Qinglian, look at what these things are, see if they are poisonous things!"
Qinglian has really caught up with her body in the past few days, but it does not affect her ability to distinguish medicinal materials. She immediately stepped forward, carefully looked at the things in Yun Yi's hand, and replied: "Mrs. Hui, this is an anonymous grass, which is an extremely rare and excellent medicinal material, and it is not toxic. What is Madame doing with this?"
When Yun Yi heard Qinglian say this, she immediately relaxed her expression and muttered: "It's good that it's not poisonous, the sachet that Tian'er brought with him was mixed with inexplicable things, and I was really worried about whether someone was going to poison him, but I didn't expect it to be poisonous." Although I don't understand why someone would go to great lengths to put this thing in Tian'er's sachet, it's good if it's not poisonous, it's good if it's not poisonous. ”
Yun Yi was relieved on the side, but Qinglian's whole heart was pinched: "Madam said, this is the contents of the eldest prince's sachet?"
Yun Yi nodded: "Yes, what's wrong? Why is your face so ugly? Didn't you say that it wasn't poisonous?"
Qinglian also made a reference when Yun Yi was looking for medicinal materials for Tian'er, and she was very clear about what Yun Yi put in the sachet, and she also knew very well what the consequences would be if this anonymous grass was put down.
"Madam, the anonymous grass is not poisonous, but it is different when put together with some things, there are just medicinal materials in the sachet that clash with the anonymous grass, put together, there is no benefit, poisonous, not very toxic, but it can invisibly cause the wearer's temperament to change, the body deteriorates, and finally dies silently!"
Yun Yi's face turned pale for a moment, and she stumbled slightly, Xia He stepped forward to support her, and said in a low voice: "Madam, don't be so alarmed, the eldest prince is fine, the anonymous grass has been taken out, it's okay." The top priority is to find out the person who plotted to kill the prince, and everything must be done by the wife. ”
Yun Yi nodded: "Yes, Tian'er is fine, my Tian'er Ji people have their own natural appearance, and there are good antidote pills, although he himself is not a physique that is invulnerable to all poisons, but it is better than ordinary people, if it is found in time, the toxicity will not be too deep." Xia He, let someone inform the eldest prince to come back, you take Qinglian to check Tian'er's pulse and see if there is anything wrong. ”
Although Yun Yi's face was still pale, he was much calmer. When Xiaoyue heard this, she inevitably lost her heart, and kept praying in her heart that the eldest prince was okay.
"Qinglian, this matter should not be too big, so as not to startle the snake. Master, wait for me to see what Madame means. ”
Qinglian shook her head: "This matter really shouldn't be made public, but the master must make it clear, after all, it is a plot to kill the prince, it is not a trivial matter, and the master must be informed immediately." ”
Xia He didn't insist, nodded, and said solemnly: "Okay, master, you can do it, it's just Qinglian, there is one thing you need to know." ”
"Well, what's the matter?" Qinglian was also infected by Xia He's seriousness, and unconsciously paused and looked at Xia He.
Xia He looked at Qinglian and said seriously: "The poison on the eldest prince's body is almost cured. ”
Qinglian frowned, instantly understood, and said in surprise: "Madame already knew about this?"
Xia He shook his head: "No, Madame only found out about this a few days ago, the eldest prince's sachet was torn, and Madame found out that something was wrong." ”
"Then why ...... today?"
"Today is just a show. ”
"Play?" Qinglian frowned, a little confused about what they were doing. I just wanted to ask carefully, but when I touched Xia He's calm eyes, I suddenly understood: "You guys are doing it for that palace maid?"
Xia He nodded, leaned closer to Qinglian and whispered. The expression on Qinglian's face changed from surprise to understanding, and finally to perseverance.
"Okay, I know what to do, please rest assured, Madame, in order to protect the safety of the eldest prince, Qinglian will definitely cooperate fully. On the emperor's side, I'll take the pulse of the eldest prince and say it immediately. It's just that this vein ......"
"Just in case, the eldest prince will be allowed to take the medicine that changes the pulse, of course, the medicine will not be too strong, but it is always no problem to deal with those people in the hospital, as long as you bite the word, even if any of those people have the ability to find out what is wrong, with you, no one dares to question it, and in the end they will only think that they are mistaken. ”
"You have too little confidence in my medical skills, with me out of the horse, the master will not let others take the pulse again. Of course, be prepared, so be it. ”
Xia He and Qinglian nodded to each other and walked forward.
In the afternoon, Xiao Yiyun was still burying the first batch of reading folds in the imperial study, and Qinglian came over. Hearing the report of the next person, Xiao Yiyun was slightly surprised. For so long, I haven't seen Qinglian have anything to do to come to the imperial study to find him.
......
The atmosphere in the imperial study was solemn, Xiao Yiyun stood with his hands in his hands, Qinglian stood behind him, and there was silence in the imperial study without a sound.
After a while, Xiao Yiyun's cold voice sounded: "Are you sure that the eldest prince was indeed poisoned?"
"Yes, the incident happened suddenly, Xia He told his subordinates that it was the palace maid's conscience who found out and told the truth, and Mrs. only knew about it, and immediately sent someone to call her subordinates to check the pulse of the eldest prince...... Master, this matter is very important, and the master must investigate it thoroughly. ”
"My son, I know what to do. Qinglian, you and Xia He are too anxious, and you are too biased towards Yunyi, don't forget, I put you by her side, not just for you to be dispatched. Now, it seems that she is your master!"
Qinglian knelt down and said bitterly: "The master is clear, Qinglian and Xia He are absolutely selfless, just for the sake of the master. The eldest prince is the blood of the master. ”
Xiao Yiyun didn't say anything, and waved his hand. Qinglian retreated respectfully, but her heart gradually became cold.
Qinglian didn't understand why the master suddenly had such an attitude towards Yunyi's mother and son. It's like Xiao Yiyun suddenly no longer cares about their mother and son, as if their mother and son are the opposite of him, and they no longer have the warmth and affection of the past......
