Chapter 82: Murder with a Knife
The piano placed on the table to play, the string suddenly broke, Xiao Yu stared at him in a bit of a panic, as if she couldn't believe what he said. "Why?"
"Although the seventh brother has a gentle and honest personality, but since marrying the daughter of the Xiao family, he has not only been praised again and again in front of his father, but also received the support of many people in the court, I think these things are handled by Xiao Liangyun behind his back, she is an extremely smart woman, and now in the disaster relief matter, she took the lead in appeasing the emotions of the victims, so that the prestige of the seven kings immediately spread in front of these people, and the father and emperor liked the seventh brother more and more. She is pregnant again at this time, if the Seven Kings Mansion is in the limelight every day, then my position as the crown prince will be unstable. ”
For a long time, Xiao Yu didn't know what to say.
"Are you scared?" Helian Yan caught a glimpse of the corners of her mouth trembling slightly, and she didn't know where to put her hand.
"No, no." She didn't know if she was scared, and replied tremblingly.
With his palm covering her hand, he sighed, "Yu'er, I, too, are helpless." There is no way for us to do this, you love me, if I am brought down by the seventh brother, my future will be gone. ”
She still seemed to hesitate, her hand instinctively shrinking in her direction.
"That's it, it's natural that you don't want to, after all, it's your sister, you have a good rest, go back alone."
The title suddenly became rusty, looking at Helian Yan getting up and slowly moving away, Xiao Yu couldn't help laughing at herself, he obviously doesn't love you at all, he obviously just uses you, why do you keep desperately infatuating with this impossible person? ”
Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu, you are really cheap.
In Luanjin Palace, there was no stop laughing.
"Huh? The prince asked Xiao Yu to attack Xiao Liangyu? Here, Luo Zhiyan's hand stroked the cat in his arms while casually asking the people below. I saw that the woman kneeling at the bottom was clearly the palace maid who was waiting for Xiao Yu in the Luanjin Palace just now. The palace maid knelt on the ground and nodded as she spoke, "Back to the princess, it is true, Her Royal Highness came to Luanjin Palace early in the morning, and the slave maid originally felt strange, he obviously didn't like her." Later, His Royal Highness heard half of the sound of the piano and said that His Royal Highness the Seventh is now prestigious, and he wants the side concubine to borrow a knife to kill people. ”
"Heh, okay, you continue to stare at the prince's side, it is something I have never dreamed of to do to Xiao Liangyun, but if he attacks Ah Ye, I will not allow it." The black cat was in the secluded palace, blinking.
"Xiao Liangyun, it's not me who wants to kill you this time, it's the prince who wants to kill you, just see how long the child in your belly can last."
This side, the palace.
The palace was lively during this time, and received the emperor's dictation, and the expenses of the palace for disaster relief and relief were all borne by the state treasury.
"Miss, you better go back to the house to rest and rest, you haven't slept well these days, and you get up early to give alms, and your body and bones can't bear it."
"I'm fine, somehow, it's a lot better to sleep less."
"You know nonsense! How can you raise the baby with peace of mind if you don't sleep? As they spoke, a maid with an incense burner came in, "What are you doing here?" ”
"Back to my aunt, the slave is here to exchange for the incense burner used by the princess every day."
"Why haven't I seen you, isn't it Yun'er's business to change the incense burner?"
"Sister Yun'er has been unwell these days, and she has unbearable diarrhea, so she asked for leave to rest, so she was replaced by a slave."
"Really?" Qiluo looked at her suspiciously, then glanced at the incense burner, and then nodded. "Okay, there you go."
After the maid closed the door after changing the incense burner, Qiluo continued to say to Xiao Liangyu, "Although Miss doesn't sleep well on weekdays, she won't turn over at every turn like she is pregnant, and she can't fall asleep at every turn, but there are no signs of discomfort. ”
"It's okay, you're always so nervous and cautious, how can so many people harm me, Helian Ye and Zhuming go out alone, I'm alone in the mansion with you and so many people to take care of me, it's fine, if you're worried, I'll squint for a while in the afternoon."
Stopping the needlework in his hand, Xiao Liangyu smelled the fragrance of the incense burner, and also felt a little tired, so he staggered to bed to rest.
This nap is extraordinarily sweet.
"Count the days, it's the fifth day." In Luan Jin Palace, Xiao Yu, who was in a purple palace robe, sat in the center of the main hall and carefully wiped her piano. "Yes, back to the side concubine, it's the fifth day, according to common sense, it should be a seizure." The familiar palace maid on the other side said cautiously while handing her the medicine bag. The medicine bag was slowly opened, and a fragrance that was extremely similar to the smell of the incense burner in Xiao Liangyun's house came out, "You go and keep an eye on it, if your medicine bag is useless and Xiao Liangyun is fine, we will think of other ways." ”
"Don't worry, Niangniang, the slave maid's recipe is a recipe often made by the slave maid's family, it seems to be a spice, but a large amount of safflower is added to it to grind into powder, and there are a variety of spices to cover it, generally no one can know that this material is poisonous."
"It's not going to be dead, is it?"
"Of course it won't be dead, don't worry."
"That's good, that's good." Xiao Yu said to herself, and continued to wipe her piano, muttering to herself. "Sister, forgive me this time, just this once."
This nap time is a little too long, Qiluo stands outside the door, looking at the sky while calculating the hours, always feeling that something is wrong, is it because she hasn't slept well in the past few days? No, no matter how greedy she is on weekdays, she won't sleep until the sun goes down so exaggerated.
"Miss? Miss? There was a soft knock on the door, but no one answered.
"Miss? Are you awake? "Still no one answered.
Qi Luo's uneasy mood grew bigger and bigger, and he slammed the door directly into the house. The scene in front of her made her eyes widen, and Xiao Liangyu fell asleep quietly on the bed, but her lower body was full of blood, soaking through her clothes and the side of the bed.
hurriedly rushed forward to support Xiao Liangyu, "Wake up!" Wake up, Miss! Wake up! Come! Someone, pass on the Imperial Doctor! can't do it! ”
For a while, she became a well-known topic again.
Imperial Physician Liu took the two imperial doctors from the imperial hospital, Imperial Physician Zhang and Imperial Physician He were busy in the palace for a long time, and the grandmother of the Xiao family heard the news and rushed directly to the palace, He Honglian, several of her friends, Chucheng's wife and Xiao Yu all stood outside the palace and waited.
Back and forth, the slave and maid carried basins of blood and cloth until evening, and the three imperial doctors did not come out of the house. Qiluo anxiously lit all the lamps in the palace, and ordered people to wait for the guests who came to see below, until a long time, Imperial Doctor Liu came out of the house.
Dressed in embarrassment, Imperial Physician Liu frowned and looked at the sky in disappointment. "How! What happened to my granddaughter! ”
"Don't be sad, old lady, the princess's life has been saved, and the child will be there again."
"What do you say? Hu'er? ”
"Well, old lady, don't be too sad."
"Ahh Woo woo my son, my good son, my great-grandson! What do you all eat? Why did she bleed profusely! ”
For a while, the emotions of the people below were driven. He Honglian had an unbelievable expression on her face, held back her sadness, and pulled Qiluo aside.
"Tell me, what the hell is going on, why she was so good, but she suddenly slept and bleeded profusely."
"Back to the girl, Qiluo has been looking at Miss these days, vigilant to watch out if anyone will harm her, Miss doesn't know why these days, it's always hard to sleep, it's easy to sleep for an hour at night, and then I woke up with a nightmare. This back and forth, several days have not been able to live in peace, coupled with continuous help in disaster relief, today's miss may be tired, early said that she wanted to take a nap to rest for a while, I think this is a good thing, so I told others not to disturb her. Later, she slept for a long time and did not come out, and the door was also locked, so I saw that something was wrong, so I slammed the door open, and saw that the young lady was already unconscious and lying on the bed covered in blood. ”
"You're saying that she hasn't slept well these days? Has she eaten anything? He Honglian has always been a very calm person, with sharp eyes, and she caught the point at once.
"Yes, I don't sleep well, I can only sleep for an hour or two a lot of times, and I don't sleep all night. Things, I have checked all these things that Miss eats, not to mention that she is a student of poison herself, can she not taste that others poisoned her? ”
"What about the rest? What is wrong with eating and wearing? What do you use? ”
"Anything to use? Items, items. That's right! Miss has always liked to light incense, and the spices used are all soothing incense that Miss and I personally grind, but these few days the girl Yun'er who came to pour incense said that she was sick, so she became another girl to serve, but I always felt that there was something wrong with the taste of this spice, but Miss herself said that it was fine. ”
"She's pregnant, and her five senses are naturally much weaker all of a sudden, you listen well, now go check the traces in the incense burner, and then check the girl you saw today, if the palace pours spices up and down, if she wants to do tricks, it is impossible for her to pour spices in the place where she originally poured, you go and ask other people, be sure to find out her trajectory, get evidence before you can speak." I don't know who wants to harm Hu'er, but what Hu'er has done in the past few days is obviously a big move, and it's normal for someone to want to kill her, but it's just those few people who think that Hu'er is a threat to him. After finishing speaking, He Honglian stuffed a jade bottle in her hand to Qiluo, "This is the best blood tonic powder, after those people are gone, she must be mentally unstable, you have to stabilize her mind first, and then give her these medicines, although the medicine in the hospital is good, but it does not cure the symptoms." Later, you can ask that Imperial Doctor Liu what caused the slippery tire, Yu'er herself is a smart person, she should know how to do it. ”
"I see, girl."
