Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Truth
At this time, I saw the white-bearded imperial doctor coming out of the bedroom, his forehead was covered with sweat, and there were still some blood stains on the sleeves of his gray robe.
"How's it going?" the princess hurriedly asked.
The imperial doctor arched his hand, sighed and said, "I tried my best, but the child was not saved." ”
"How can this be!" The princess's face turned pale, she took two steps back unsteadily, asked the maid to sit down, and said with tears in her eyes, "Isn't the third lady heartbroken?
Mo Ziyu was also shocked in his heart, how could he say that a miscarriage would be a miscarriage!
What the hell went wrong!
At this time, Liu Xu rushed back, glanced at the room full of people, and asked in a deep voice, "What's the matter?"
The princess got up, stopped talking, and sighed: "The child in my sister's belly has not been saved!"
"What?" Liu Xu's face became even heavier, and he asked in a cold voice, "What the hell is going on? How do you take care of it on weekdays? Doctor Hu, what is the reason for this, and why can't the child be saved?"
Imperial Physician Hu cupped his fists and said: "Lord Qiqi, in the humble opinion of the old minister, the third lady's miscarriage this time is related to overthinking and being frightened......
At this time, Qi'er suddenly rushed out of the room, knelt at Liu Xu's feet and cried: "Lord Wang, please be the master of our wife!
"Shut up!Who told you to talk here!" Concubine Su opened her mouth and scolded, "The third lady is pregnant, and the whole palace is elated, who would want this accident to happen!"
Qi'er's eyes were red, she glared at Concubine Su fiercely, and said with a sneer: "Who doesn't want the child in Mrs.'s womb to be born, who knows it in his heart!"
"What do you mean!"
"Lord Wang!" Qi'er kowtowed to Liu Xu and continued, "Madame was already worried about the affairs of the You family, and she couldn't sleep at night. Today, Concubine Su killed her personal maid in front of Madame, and made sarcastic remarks, Madame must have been stimulated by this incident, so she had fetal gas!"
Concubine Su sneered: "Do you mean that the third lady's miscarriage was caused by me? Let me ask, what is wrong with me dealing with a slave and maid according to the law and family rules? Is it because the third lady is pregnant, I have to turn a blind eye and ignore the reputation of the palace? Ignore the etiquette law? Since the third lady knows that she is pregnant, she must ignore the outside affairs, concentrate on raising the fetus, and leave everything to the prince! She is worried about the affairs of the You family, that is, she does not trust the prince, and she releases slaves and maids to harbor criminals, and even knows the law and breaks the law! She has an accident now, but she blames me, so why don't you blame the You family, if the You family does not commit this unforgivable crime, wouldn't everything not happen?"
Concubine Su was speechless, Qi'er was speechless, she didn't know how to refute, and she knew that she knelt down and begged Liu Xu to be the master of the third lady.
"Concubine Su, don't get excited. The princess hurriedly persuaded, "Qi'er is also just in a hurry, this matter may not have anything to do with you." Imperial Doctor Hu, I was overthinking and frightened, is there anything else that the third lady may have that may cause a miscarriage?"
He thought about it again and again, and hesitated for a while before saying, "Also, I want to check if there is a problem with the third lady's diet......
"You mean someone has tampered with the third lady's diet?" said the princess hurriedly.
The old minister didn't dare to say anything. ”
"Someone!" Liu Xu shouted, "Check all the food in Qiongfang Courtyard and search it inside and out!"
"Yes!" Qing Ling immediately led people to start a spot check in Qiongfang Courtyard.
At this time, Imperial Physician Hu said again: "Several ladies are wearing sachets, I don't know if you can let me smell them?"
"Do you mean that some of us have harmed the third lady?" asked Concubine Su with a sneer.
"Don't dare, if the mother feels offended, report to the mother below. Imperial Physician Hu arched his hand and said, "I just have some doubts in my heart." ”
"Since Imperial Physician Hu has doubts, and this matter is very important, we should cooperate. Besides, the Qing is self-purifying, what are you afraid of!" The princess said and took off the sachet she was wearing and handed it to Imperial Doctor Hu.
Imperial Physician Hu took it, sniffed it, and then returned the sachet without saying anything.
His gaze turned to Mo Ziyu, and Mo Ziyu also untied his sachet and handed it to him.
Imperial Physician Hu took it and sniffed it, didn't say anything, and then returned it to Mo Ziyu.
Concubine Su rolled her eyes unhappily, took off the sachet, and threw it to Imperial Doctor Hu.
Imperial Physician Hu's face froze, he sniffed it carefully, untied the sachet again, poured the contents into his palm and sniffed it carefully.
Then his complexion changed greatly, he knelt on the ground, and said: "Lord Wang, Concubine Su's sachet has a medicine in it, called purple dew, the fragrance is very light, even if you wear it on weekdays, it has no effect." However, once mixed with the wind kite, it will have a musk-like effect, and although the effect is very shallow, it can still be dangerous if you inhale too many times. ”
Mo Ziyu was slightly shocked in his heart, remembering that it was indeed recorded in a medical book that the two fragrances were mixed together to have the effect of musk, but the taste of the scene was so complicated, how could Imperial Doctor Hu make such an accurate judgment? I am afraid that the master may not be able to judge it in such a short time even if he tastes a hundred herbs.
"No wonder you haven't been to Qiongfang much before, you have been here a lot lately, it turns out that you are uneasy and kind!" Qi'er said fiercely, "Lord Wang, you must be the master of the third lady!"
"Nonsense!" Concubine Su shouted, "Imperial Doctor Hu, you are simply talking nonsense, who instructed you to slander me!"
"Zai Xia is only judging based on what was found at the scene, if Concubine Su feels that what Zai Xia said is untrue, she can find other people to take a look. After Doctor Hu finished speaking, he stepped aside.
"What are you talking about, what purple dew, what wind kite, I don't know what you're talking about!" Concubine Su shouted.
"This pot of wind kite was also sent by you, Concubine Su, have you forgotten?" asked Qi'er.
"What I ordered someone to send is a pot of nine mile incense, what a wind kite!"
"The wind kite and the nine lixiang are indeed somewhat similar. ”
"Shut up!" Concubine Su went up and slapped Qi'er, "Who gave you the guts to dare to frame me like this!"
"Shut up for this king!" Zhao Xu glanced at Mo Ziyu, who had been silent, with a calm face, "Purple dew and wind kite are mixed with a musk effect, this king has never heard of it, does it really have this effect?"
Mo Ziyu nodded, and then said, "I'm just afraid that a very small number of people will know that there will be this effect, right?"
"Since you know the Seventh Lady, it may not be a few people who know!" The princess interjected lightly, and she looked at Concubine Su again, "Whether it is intentional or unintentional, the third lady's incident this time is indeed because of you! The wind kite was sent by you, and the purple dew is only in your sachet." ”
