Chapter 151: Poisoning
Concubine Hui's plan is very simple, she knows that Princess Changle likes all kinds of pastries, as long as she can send Hui An to the Jade Chang Palace, she will definitely let Hui An stay.
But Hui'an was just a fog bomb she used to cover up.
The real means are yet to come.
She was going to ask Hui'an to make some osmanthus cakes for Changle, and then light the soothing incense made from the Forget Worry Grass.
There is nothing wrong with the two alone, but if they are combined, it will cause great harm to people's bodies.
Some of them are unconscious, and in severe cases, they lose their lives.
This is still the precautions told to her by an old Chinese medicine doctor, and she doesn't believe how lucky Changle can be to avoid her plan this time.
……
"Changle? Is Princess Changle here? Hongu came to apologize to her. ”
"Niangniang, our master has said that she doesn't want to see you for the time being, so please go back, don't delay your time."
The roots of Concubine Hui's teeth were itching, but she still had a decent smile on her face.
"You can help the palace ask, if the princess is unwilling, it will not be too late for me to leave."
"Why are you so ......?" obsessed.
Before the last few words could be spoken, a sound was heard from inside the dormitory.
"Ruyi, let Concubine Hui come in."
"Yes."
Ruyi reluctantly let go of his body and leaned over: "Niangniang, please." ”
Concubine Hui clenched her fists angrily.
What stinky fish and rotten shrimp dare to climb on her head and scatter wild, when she kills Princess Changle, she must be a good-looking maid named Ruyi!
Concubine Hui simply tidied up the skirt on her body and led Hui An into it.
"Is there anything important about the visit of the concubine?"
"It's nothing, I just want to come over and apologize to Her Royal Highness the Princess."
"Apologize?" Changle's left hand caressed the red fingertips that his right hand had just dyed: "Guifei Niangniang really likes to joke, what do you have to apologize to me?" ”
Changle didn't even want to lift his eyelids by half more, and he didn't want to pay attention to it at all.
Concubine Hui was annoyed by her contemptuous attitude, took a deep breath, and then continued: "It's not for the sake of the previous matter, I shouldn't have taken advantage of you because of your kindness to me.
During this time, I have been reflecting on myself, but I have not been able to pull down my face, so I have never come.
Today is also an official apology to you. This maid's name was changed to Hui An, and what she was best at was making pastries. ”
Concubine Hui turned her head and glanced at Hui An behind her.
"Why don't you bring what you made to the princess to taste."
"Yes."
Hui An reluctantly stood up from behind Hui Guifei, put the food box he was carrying on the table, opened the lid, and there were four or five pastries inside.
There are only about three pieces of each, although the number is not much, but it is better to be delicate and small, one bite at a time, even if you eat it all, you will not feel too tired.
Changle turned around and gestured to the maidservant beside him.
I saw the maid take out a piece of silk cloth from her arms, wrapped in a silver needle, and wait until the maid pierced all the pastries to the side and confirmed that it was non-toxic, Changle pinched a piece and put it in her mouth.
After chewing a dozen times, I swallowed it mixed with tea.
"Concubine Hui, don't think about it, this palace also heard that this palace is not very peaceful, so I asked Ruyu to help me test the poison, and there is no intention to target you."
Le Du has already opened his mouth to explain, if Concubine Hui continues to hold on to this matter, it will inevitably be a little unreasonable.
Even if she gritted her teeth, she could only laugh and swallow in her stomach.
"What is the princess talking about, how can the concubine think so? Princess, look at this peach blossom brand again, this is Hui'an's best pastry. ”
As she spoke, Hui Guifei pushed a plate of peach blossom-shaped pastries over.
Crisp and sweet, full of fragrance, you can taste the aroma of peach blossoms when you taste it.
Li Changge half-squinted his eyes, like a big cat that had been smoothed by someone, and enjoyed it for a while before slowly breaking open his eyes.
"It tastes good, so let's stay."
Concubine Hui was overjoyed when she heard this, and hurriedly urged the maid on the side: "Thank you princess for not hurrying up." ”
Hui An knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Thank you, Your Royal Highness the Princess, for taking you in." ”
"Get up, you will follow Ruyu in the future, and the rules in this Jade Changgong will be taught by Ruyu."
"Thank you, princess, I'm tired like a jade girl."
The appearance of obedience made Changle feel a lot more comfortable, and after saying a few words to Concubine Hui, he secretly urged the other party to leave.
The goal has been achieved, and Concubine Hui naturally won't waste more time and left alone with an excuse.
Although the pastries made by Hui'an are delicious, they have not reached the pinnacle level.
What's more, she is still the person accepted by Concubine Hui, so Changle is even more reluctant to use the pastries made by Hui'an.
In order to make Concubine Hui Guifei mistakenly think that she had believed in Hui An, she would designate Hui An to make one or two pastries every day But whether she ate it or not, no one knows.
It wasn't until the imperial chef in the palace came home on vacation that Hui An finally found a chance.
"Princess, the slave saw that the osmanthus flowers in the courtyard were blooming just right, so she picked some and made these osmanthus cakes, do you want to taste them?"
The pale yellow pastry is also mixed with a few fine petals, which makes people look like they are appetizing.
Changle swallowed his saliva, hesitated for half a second, and finally obeyed the order of his mouth.
"Bring it up."
After using a silver needle to test for poison, Changle ate a few pieces in a row.
The sweet but not greasy, dry but not dry taste made Changle quickly like the pastry in front of her, and it was not until she finished eating it all that she wiped the crumbs from the corner of her mouth with a handkerchief.
"Ruyu, give her ten taels of silver as a reward."
"Thank you, Princess."
After eating osmanthus all afternoon, Changle didn't feel anything abnormal, and it wasn't until the evening that she felt something was wrong with her body.
His body was getting heavier and heavier, and his limbs seemed to be filled with lead, and he couldn't lift them.
She tried to open her mouth, but she shouted to herself to no avail.
In less than half a second, her eyelids became heavier and heavier, and in another moment, she fell asleep completely.
In the early morning of the second day, Ruyu came over with a basin of water as usual to serve Changle to wash, and even knocked on the door seven or eight times without hearing Changle's response.
Mistakenly thinking that Changle was sleeping too soundly, she didn't feel anything wrong.
It wasn't until she saw the handkerchief falling from the ground and the unawakened Princess Changle that she finally realized that something was wrong.
The basin of water in his hand suddenly fell to the ground with a loud noise.
The warm water was sprinkled all over the ground, splashing everywhere.
Ruyu hurriedly ran out of the door and shouted anxiously: "Oh no! Oh no! Princess, she's been killed! ”
It didn't take long
In time, the news of Changle's murder spread to every corner of the palace.
……
"Doctor Tai, how is Changle doing?"
Tuoba Truss looked at the imperial doctor who was taking Changle's pulse on the side, his eyes full of anxiety.
"The pulse is chaotic, the pupils are upturned, and the old minister is afraid that he will not be able to return to the sky......"
"How can this be ......"
Tuoba Truss muttered softly.
He stared blankly at Changle who was still asleep on the bed.
Obviously, a few days ago, Changle would still have a bad stomach to prevent him from meeting Li Changge, but in just a few days, he became what he is now.
Tuoba Huan waved his hand away from the imperial doctor, and only after a while did he ask the chief manager Jin on the side in a dumb voice: "Have you figured out the cause of Changle's poisoning?" Who's the killer! ”
"This ......"
Mr. Kim's wrinkled face was full of tangles.
The emperor is already so angry, if he knows the current situation, I'm afraid he will be in a hurry......
Mr. Jin hesitated and didn't know whether to speak, but he heard Tuoba Truss say coldly: "If you have anything to say, just say it, you have served by my side for so long, you should also know my character, if you don't say it, then don't think about it in the future!" ”
As the eunuch who has been by Tuoba Truss's side for the longest time, Chief Jin naturally understands the meaning of Tuoba Truss's words just now.
He clearly warned himself that if he didn't say it, he wouldn't want his tongue.
Mr. Jin's legs suddenly weakened, and he fell directly to the ground.
If you lose your tongue, what's the difference between that and your life?! He doesn't want to die yet!
Chief Jin knelt on the ground and kowtowed, and said busily: "The slave said, the slave said, the Zongren Mansion has completed the investigation, except for the new Hui'an, the rest of the palace maids have been with the princess for a certain number of years."
Yesterday, it was Hui'an who was in charge of the princess's diet, but Hui'an only made a plate of osmanthus cake, Ruyu also tested for poison, and said that it was non-toxic, but other than that, there were no more clues......"
After saying that, Mr. Kim lowered his head even lower.
"Rubbish! It's all a bunch of rubbish! ”
Tuobatsu slammed the contents of the table to the ground, narrowly missing the Golden Chief.
Mr. Jin hurriedly moved to the side twice, afraid of falling on himself.
Just as Tuoba Truss was still venting his anger, Li Changge, who heard that Changle was poisoned, also felt the Jade Changgong.
"Changle, how is she doing now? Did the imperial doctor find out what poison caused it? ”
Looking at Li Changge's worried face, Tuoba Huan suddenly couldn't let out any anger, and the whole person was like a ball that had been deflated, his waist was slightly bent, and he shook his head.
"No reason has been found."
The last thing Li Changge wanted to see was his deflated appearance, so he took five steps and made three steps, walked quickly in front of Tuoba Truss, and took his hand.
"Can you let me try it, maybe I can find out the cause of her poisoning."
Tuoba Truss didn't have much hope, but when he looked at Li Changge's eyes full of concern, he still nodded subconsciously.
It was only when he got out of the way that he began to annoy that he had agreed too quickly.
"You...... You can do your best......"
Li Changge knew that he didn't want to put too much pressure on himself, so he gave the other party a reassuring smile and started to check it.
first checked Changle's pulse, then looked at her eyelids, and finally took a few drops of blood from her fingertips and tested them with medicinal powder. 2k reading web
