Chapter 459: Golden Soup and Jade Rice
The cool hall that was still full of bamboo sounds just now was empty, and in the blink of an eye, the hall was empty, leaving only a table full of cups and plates. The ice basin in the corner of the wall had begun to melt, but no one cared about adding ice.
The atmosphere in the side hall was solemn, and finally someone couldn't help but say: "This is so good, how could the Queen Mother be poisoned?" β
"Yes, the emperor asked us to stay here, could it be that the person who suspected the poison was among us?"
Everyone looked at each other and couldn't help but glance at Concubine Hua.
Hua Guifei secretly clenched her fists, extremely annoyed.
She never expected that the people who were invited to the side hall also included her!
What does the emperor mean by this, could it be that he is suspicious of her?
This is simply ridiculous, today's banquet is in charge of her, unless she loses her mind and goes crazy, she will poison the Queen Mother!
Wait a minute!
Concubine Hua finally reacted.
The Queen Mother was poisoned at the banquet she was hosting, and no matter who poisoned her, she could not escape the blame!
Thinking of this, Hua Guifei almost bit a mouthful of silver teeth, and secretly let her know who was the poisoner, and she would definitely cut that person with a thousand knives!
It's really not long-sighted, even if you want to poison that old witch, don't choose this time!
The air pressure around Hua Guifei was low, and everyone had different expressions and floating thoughts.
King Nan'an said lightly: "Don't be impatient, everyone, the emperor is wise and wise, what we haven't done will not be blamed." β
King Nan'an's words made everyone feel better, and they all said yes.
In the inner room, Emperor Changqing's face was anxious: "National teacher, what kind of poison did the Queen Mother have?" β
Jing Ling's real person looked faint, but when he opened his mouth, it made people's hearts feel a little cold: "The emperor doesn't know, although the Fu doctor knows how to dispel poison and can delay the onset of various poisons, but he is not good at defending poison, I want to know what poison the queen mother has in, and I have to wait for the conclusion of the imperial doctors." β
Emperor Changqing was not so polite to the imperial doctor, and asked in a deep voice: "Did the imperial doctors find out anything?" β
More than a dozen imperial doctors were sweating profusely, and said stubbornly: "Back to the emperor, I haven't found out what kind of poison is in the queen mother, but I can only determine that the poison in the queen mother's body is very rare." β
"So what?" Emperor Changqing's face was even more ugly.
"This-" The imperial doctors glanced at each other, and one of them plucked up the courage to say, "I can only continue to observe the situation of the queen mother, and find the source of the poison, maybe we can distinguish one or two." β
"Zhu Hongxi, you go and ask the imperial doctor in the main hall to find out what poisoned the queen mother?"
"Yes."
Emperor Changqing glanced coldly at the imperial doctors, raised his feet and walked to the outer room to wait.
After a while, Zhu Hongxi hurriedly came: "Your Majesty, I found out that there was a problem with the golden soup and jade rice on the table of the Queen Mother." β
"Golden soup and jade rice?" Emperor Changqing was a little surprised.
He thought that the problem was longevity, but he never expected it to be the golden soup and jade rice.
The so-called golden soup and jade rice is made of boiling yellow croaker and lettuce, which is delicate and delicious, and wonderful.
Emperor Changqing suddenly remembered that when he was a prince in his early years, the Queen Mother liked to eat yellow croaker.
The past is picturesque, and it hurriedly turns over in Emperor Changqing's mind.
It was also such a hot weather, and he was only ** years old when he came back with the little eunuch, sweating profusely, and smelled a strange fragrance as soon as he ran into the hall.
At that time, he was still a little afraid of his adoptive mother, and asked, "Queen Mother, what kind of fragrance is this?" β
The still very young Queen Mother hugged her four or five-year-old niece Zhenzhen, and told him with a gentle smile: "The Queen Mother asked the kitchen to make golden soup and jade rice for you to taste." The yellow croaker in this season is still quite plump, and it will not taste good after a while. β
The Queen Mother let go of Zhenzhen as she spoke, and wiped his sweat with her own hands.
That meal was especially delicious in his memory.
The gentle smile of the Queen Mother, as well as the pair of cute little bags on the head of Feng Zhenzhen, who was competing with him and just bothered to eat a lot, were silently imprinted on his heart.
Emperor Changqing came back to his senses and asked Zhu Hongxi: "Only the golden soup and jade rice on the Queen Mother's table is problematic?" β
Zhu Hongxi replied: "Yes, the imperial doctor poured the golden soup and jade rice on other tables to the cat to eat, and there was nothing abnormal, only the one on the queen mother's table, the cat fell to the ground and died after eating a few bites." β
Emperor Changqing was furious: "Let all the imperial doctors consult immediately to see what poison is in that golden soup and jade rice!" β
More than a dozen imperial doctors gathered together and filled the room to the brim, and as time went on, cold sweat broke out one by one.
"It's not okay to go on like this, this nameless poison can be found out in a moment and a half. But the Queen Mother can't wait, if it goes on like this, we all have to lose our heads. β
"So what can I do?"
An elderly imperial physician clapped his hands suddenly: "I remember, wasn't Imperial Physician Li of Zhishi last year good at deliberating drugs?" Let's go and talk to the emperor and ask Imperial Doctor Li to come and try it! β
"Thisβ" Many Imperial Doctors hesitated.
In this way, wouldn't it seem that they were rice buckets in front of the emperor?
The old lady pouted: "Don't do this and that, when you live to my age, you will know that nothing matters if you die." Let the emperor scold a few words, it's better than losing your life! β
The doctors made up their minds: "Okay, just do it!" β
When Emperor Changqing heard that more than a dozen imperial doctors were helpless, he could only invite a Zhishi imperial doctor, and he was really furious: "What a group of rice buckets!" Zhu Hongxi, go and tell the Jinlan Guard to bring Imperial Doctor Li into the palace quickly! β
Zhu Hongxi took the order and left, and after a while, a palace maid rushed out: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother...... The Queen Mother wants to see you......"
Emperor Changqing strode in, and saw the Queen Mother, who was radiant not long ago, lying on the bed at the moment, no different from an ordinary old woman.
Emperor Changqing's heart was inexplicably sour.
For this adoptive mother, he has always respected more than love, and because of the queen's affairs, the two have a knot, and they have gradually become estranged over the years, but her kindness to herself cannot be erased.
"Queen Mother-" Emperor Changqing half-squatted down and grabbed the Queen Mother's hand.
The Queen Mother struggled to get up: "Your Majesty, help the mourning family up, I want to sit and talk." β
Emperor Changqing was busy helping the Queen Mother to lean on the scarlet gold pillow.
The Queen Mother smiled slowly: "Your Majesty, is the mourning family not done?" β
"No, I've already sent someone to ask for Imperial Doctor Li, who is good at defending poison. Imperial Doctor Li is in the suburbs of Beijing to retire, so he must be in time. Besides, isn't there still a national teacher, who can slow down the spread of your toxin. β
The Queen Mother shook her head: "Treating the disease is not curing, and the physical condition of the mourning family is well known in my heart." Your Majesty, the mourning family wants to go back to Cining Palace, you can send the mourning family back. β
The corners of Emperor Changqing's eyes were moist, and he nodded: "Okay." β
Cining Palace is still quiet, Emperor Changqing settled the Queen Mother and stayed by the Queen Mother's side every step.
The Queen Mother's eyes became more and more distracted, and she gradually became delirious, and took Emperor Changqing's hand and muttered: "It's true, is it true?" Why are your hands thick and hard? Did you suffer a lot in the cold palace? β
Emperor Changqing's heart was shocked.
"It's trueβ" The Queen Mother seemed to return to the light and kept calling.
Emperor Changqing's heart was in turmoil, he closed his eyes and said, "Please come to Cining Palace." (To be continued.)
