Chapter 537: The Jade Goose is in the Pot
The combination of the water of the medicinal bath and the fumigation fumes ignited by the five poisons will cause the body to draw out the toxins and suffer extremely intense pain.
For this point, Baizhu **** served by Xiao Jinxuan's side, and she was also very clear in the conversation between Old Man Ding and others.
So deep down, he really didn't want to accompany Xiao Jinxuan to suffer this sin, so he immediately retreated directly behind the screen according to what the other party said.
But before Baizhu could stand firm, he saw Ding Yizhen shouting at her:
"Baizhu girl, the temperature of the water in the medicinal bath that Jinxuan is taking today is really a little too hot. This will evaporate too quickly and will not be conducive to detoxification, so can you help me get some cold water? ”
Now there is only one person in the hall who is waiting on the side of Baizhu, so the things that help Old Man Ding are naturally done by her.
But almost as soon as Baizhu left, Xiao Jinxuan, who was soaked in the medicinal bath, immediately stood up, and then chuckled at the innermost side of the dormitory, where she was resting:
"Zhuxin, come here, you'll be the one who will take this medicinal bath instead of me. But don't worry, the water in the tub now looks blue but has no medicinal properties, and it won't make you feel unbearable. The master will stay to help you hide the Baizhu, and it is up to the two of you to stabilize it here, and I must leave right now. ”
As soon as he heard this, the old man Ding, who had already been angry with Xiao Jinjinxuan, immediately said with a smile:
"Apprentice, go and get busy with yourself, that little girl in Baizhu, if you really find the clue, the old man will just stun her directly. There is a teacher here in the dormitory, and it is guaranteed that there will be no mistakes. ”
Ding Yizhen's own martial arts are not weak, and he is a poison doctor, when the Rui Wangfu was besieged, the other party was able to break through with Shen Wenqing and others.
With this master here, Xiao Jinxuan naturally has nothing to worry about.
But I saw that Xiao Jinxuan retreated to the inner room of the dormitory, and under the service of Zhu Xin, she quickly changed the clean clothes prepared in advance, and after coming out of the new, she said with a wry smile:
"In fact, why do you need to be reminded by the master, where does the apprentice not know that this will tie up the Baizhu is the safest. But in the end, the other party has been with me for all these years, and she has become what she is now, also because Wen Xin is tired by me. So I still want to give her a chance, as long as Zhuxin disguises herself as me to accept the medicinal bath, if the other party has remorse, you will send her out of the palace safely, leaving a way for the other party to live. But if she is obsessed and does not regret it, then it can't be blamed that I didn't give her one last chance. ”
Seeing that Xiao Jinxuan said this, she had already stepped out of the dormitory.
Ding Yizhen, who sent the other party all the way to the door, immediately couldn't help but have a new level of understanding of his apprentice.
In fact, he saw that Xiao Jinxuan was by no means a villain with a needle, even if some of the other party's methods were really vicious, and when he governed the harem, he did not cause much killing.
But now, seeing that under Xiao Jinxuan's cold face, the other party said that she missed the old feelings, and even the Baizhu traitor, she was willing to leave a way for the other party to live.
For a while, Old Man Ding really felt that his apprentice was just wrapping himself too long and too strict with indifference and ruthlessness, and under the indifference of the other party, he actually had an extremely soft heart.
"Apprentice, don't worry, I will cooperate with Zhuxin to perform the previous play well in a while, and completely hide the girl in Baizhu. I withdrew from the dormitory and stared at each other secretly, or the old man was not there, and she could easily speak if she was remorseful. You should leave quickly, otherwise Baizhu will come back in a while, and the two of you will bump into each other, and everything will be exposed. ”
As soon as she heard this, Xiao Jinxuan, who really didn't have time to delay, immediately said goodbye to Old Man Ding, and then walked out of Zhaoyang Palace quickly with Su Qi and a dozen hidden guards who came to meet her.
Immediately afterwards, I saw Xiao Jinxuan rushing straight in the direction of Fengxiang Palace, and asked Su Qi beside her:
"These two **** and Wen Xin have been firmly monitoring all the movements of Fengxiang Palace, can they really be sure that the other party is going to call Xue Yuyan to give birth tonight and do that thing about changing babies. The stakes are big, if we can't get the stolen goods this time, slander the queen mother of the dynasty, and intend to slander the palace concubines, the crime is not small, and then we will inevitably be bitten by Queen Xue in turn. ”
Seeing the prudence in Xiao Jinxuan's expression, what Su Qi has always been responsible for by the other party's side is to secretly investigate and collect all kinds of information, which is what he is best at.
Therefore, even if the situation is indeed grim tonight, and even if there is a storm in the harem if you don't get it right, Su Qi still nodded with great confidence, and said in an affirmative tone:
"Master, rest assured, there will be changes in Fengxiang Palace tonight. First, there was the strange behavior of Baizhu and Zuo Wen's joint, and then his subordinates even bought off the little eunuch on the periphery of Fengxiang Palace. Knowing that Xue Yuyan's **** abdominal pain was like a twist, they could occasionally hear each other's wailing. It can be seen that the first child in Concubine Xue's womb is not a vision from heaven, so she is not in labor a few months late, it is obviously caused by man. ”
When Su Qi said this, seeing Xiao Jinxuan nodding his head quite approvingly, he couldn't help but feel as if he was encouraged, and even felt that his inference would never be wrong, and then immediately continued:
"Master, just imagine, Concubine Xue is like a wrenching abdominal pain, and this fetus has been artificially delayed for several months. Even if the fetus can be born, I'm afraid the child won't live well. You mentioned your subordinates before, let me focus on the aspect of Xue Hou's baby change. And after Gu's subordinates followed Bai that day, they explored what they saw in Fengxiang Palace at night. There is indeed a baby boy in the hands of the Empress Dowager Dong, I am afraid that as long as Concubine Xue is in childbirth, this child will be crowned with royal blood and become a sharp weapon in the hands of Empress Xue in the fight for the throne. ”
can follow Xiao Jinxuan's side until now, whether it is Wen Xin or Su Qi, as well as Zhuxin Bai Chu and others, they can all be said to have their own strengths, and none of them are useless people.
Especially Su Qina was trained by Chiling Chiying, and he himself was shrewd.
Therefore, the analysis is not only clear, but also the intentions and ambitions of Fengxiang Palace, and the analysis is extremely thorough.
And whether Su Qi's inference was correct or not, not to mention how Xiao Jinxuan's side rushed to Fengxiang Palace with all his might.
But said that Empress Xue over there, now she is indeed standing outside Xue Yuyan's bedroom, and she has always looked calm, but she can hardly hide a trace of anxiety, and looked at Zuo Wen on the side with a frown and asked:
"How come an hour has passed, and the child Yuyan has not yet given birth to a stillborn child. Zuo Wen, don't you say that as long as the baby devouring Gu is guided by the special spice you developed, it can excrete this thing from the body along with the stillborn baby that was hollowed out by it, we don't have time to delay too long now. Don't forget, if tonight passes, tomorrow Xiao Jinxuan will replace Shen Wenqing from the harem again, and she will definitely keep an eye on our Fengxiang Palace again. At that time, don't say that the baby boy of our Xue family's bloodline will replace the stillborn baby and become the little prince. I'm afraid that once Xiao Jinxuan finds out, she will have to take the opportunity to completely eradicate me, the Queen Mother of the East Palace. ”
In fact, since Xue beat her niece a few months ago and subdued the baby devouring Gu, she desperately wanted to replace the baby.
Therefore, when the Xue family had just given birth to a baby boy, according to Xue Xiang's instructions in advance, they entered the palace to greet Xue Hou, and left their children in the palace.
In the past few months in Fengxiang Palace, it has been rumored several times that Xue Yuyan is about to give birth, in fact, Empress Xue wants to secretly do the baby change as soon as possible.
But every time, Xiao Jinxuan controlled it very tightly, and it took a little time to use spice ignition to attract the baby devouring Gu in Xue Yuyan's body.
Therefore, after a few months of delay, Xue Hou did not find the right opportunity to do this thing secretly.
And with Xiao Jinxuan falling ill, Empress Xue could be regarded as seeing the opportunity, but Zhou Xianrui actually began to visit the harem from time to time, and paid great attention to the movements of the sixth palace.
And with the eyeliner of the Zhaoyang Palace, Empress Xue not only knew that Xiao Jinxuan and Zhou Xianrui had never been husband and wife, but also knew that Zhou Xianyu was actually **** who stayed in the palace and did not leave some time ago.
In fact, the reason why the gossip of Zhaoyang Palace circulated in the palace in the later period was that Empress Xue deliberately released it, in order to force Zhou Xianyu out of the palace.
Otherwise, with the other party on the side to help Xiao Jinxuan, Fengxiang Palace still didn't dare to act rashly.
Therefore, Empress Xue waited for so long, and she could be regarded as having seized such an opportunity that Xiao Jinxuan could not be separated due to the medicinal bath, so she immediately arranged for Xue Yuyan to give birth, and prepared to completely complete the matter of changing the baby in one fell swoop tonight.
And after the half-burnt incense work, just when Empress Xue couldn't wait to ask Zuo Wen when he would be able to lure the Infant Devouring Gu out.
But before she could say anything, she heard Xue Yuyan's piercing scream in the dormitory, but it suddenly came out.
But as soon as she heard this scream, Zuo Wen immediately had a happy face, and immediately said to Xue Hou:
"The Queen Mother must have been inside, when the baby devouring Gu is dragged away from the mother's body with a stillbirth, there will be a great sense of severe pain, presumably Concubine Xue Niangniang inside must have given birth to a dead baby. Master, bring the little prince quickly, send him to the delivery room as soon as possible, and what you have planned will be completed. ”
Xue Hou, who had been carrying her heart all the time, was put down because of Zuo Wen's words, and immediately asked her henchman to go and hug the baby boy of the Xue family who had been hiding and hiding, and then she walked towards the dormitory.
But before Zuo Wen could help her open the door of the palace, she saw that the midwife and the imperial doctor who were supposed to be inside to help Xue Yuyan deliver the baby were all panicked, and ran out with a frightened face.
As soon as he saw Xue Hou standing outside the dormitory, the frightened midwives immediately knelt down to say goodbye to the Empress Dowager.
And one of the fast-talking little palace maids immediately kowtowed to Xue Hou, and said in a panic:
"The Queen Mother spares her life, go and take a look, Concubine Xue gave birth to a freak, it's really terrible. Please let the slave and maid go quickly, and the slave and maid will be scared to death when they look at it. ”
Empress Xue looked at the people who had delivered Xue Yuyan in the dormitory before, and they all ran outside the dormitory and knelt on the ground begging her to leave quickly.
Seeing this, Empress Xue was not in a hurry to rush into the dormitory to see what was wrong with Xue Yuyan, but after a low chuckle of great joy, she sighed helplessly, and said faintly:
"You people, since you have seen things that you shouldn't see, how dare you expect this palace to let you go now. Zuo Wen didn't leave any of them, and killed them all. Today's affairs in the dormitory, the palace will never allow it to leak the slightest! ”
