Chapter 159: Medicine
"Your Majesty, this is the fifth batch of assassins that Your Majesty has encountered in Yuehua City."
Qin Moxuan nodded lightly and said, "As usual, dispose of these corpses." ”
"The subordinates understand that they have already sent people to do so."
Qin Moxuan nodded, "Are you ready to dredge the river tomorrow?" ”
"Ready."
"Then go down and rest, I've worked hard for you tonight."
"It is the duty of the subordinates to protect His Majesty, how dare they say that they are hard. Just ......"
Qin Moxuan raised his eyes to look at him and said, "Just how?" ”
"It's just that Your Majesty doesn't seem to care about these assassinations, but it seems to be expected by Your Majesty."
Qin Mo preached: "In the palace, the guards are tight, and these people are not good at doing it alone. Now, when they are alone, they naturally can't help it and won't let go of this opportunity. ”
The guard was speechless for a moment.
Qin Moxuan waved his hand, and the guard didn't stay for long, but went down.
After he left, a shadow guard appeared in the house.
"Your Majesty, Jinghua has news that the queen has eliminated Chen Rui for Her Majesty last night. This is Mu Jin's letter. ”
Qin Moxuan paused slightly, and took the letter from the shadow guard's hand.
From the letter, he learned about the whole thing.
It was not his wish to lead the moon into a shallow set. This incident also helped her gain a firm foothold in the palace.
It's just that after that, there will be greater dangers waiting. Qin Moxuan didn't know if it was right for him to do this, obviously he didn't want her to be hurt, but he still got involved in these struggles.
"Your Majesty, there should be two groups of those five groups of assassins."
Qin Moxuan's eyes were cold, and he said, "It seems that after coming to Huacheng alone, that person can't help it." ”
After the matter of Taibao Chen Rui came to an end, Yue Qingqian never relaxed.
She thought about the whole thing after that, and suspected that in addition to Qin Moxuan and others, there should be other people behind this matter who did not belong to Qin Moxuan's camp.
There are too many suspicions, so she has to doubt.
Moreover, what made her even more disturbing was that Chen Siya escaped, and on the second day of Chen Rui's disposal, she disappeared.
And the one named Lan'er next to Chen Siya committed suicide.
Yue Qingqian felt that she was in a fog at the moment, and this series of things made her a little unable to see what Qin Moxuan's true purpose was.
Yue Qingqian held a brush in his hand and copied Buddhist scriptures, but his heart couldn't calm down.
Finally, he simply threw the pen aside and sighed slightly.
When she thinks about things now, she has an extra habit, and her right hand will unconsciously caress the green sandalwood bracelet on her left wrist. The unique faint fragrance of green sandalwood can calm her heart a little.
It's just that there are some things that she still has to care about.
According to Mu Jin, before Chen Rui died, he also said that Qin Moxuan would definitely die in Yuehua City.
This matter made Yue Qingqian very concerned, and she guessed that Chen Rui would inevitably send someone to Yuehua City to assassinate Qin Moxuan. I don't know if what he said was a curse or a bottom in his heart.
Yue Qingqian's heart finally calmed down a little, and then it was chaotic again.
At this time, Qiu Yue walked in with a bowl of medicine and said to Yue Qingqian: "Niangniang, it's time to drink medicine." ”
Yue Qingqian sighed again and said, "Put it there, I'll drink it later." ”
"Yes." Since Yue Qingqian's drinking medicine became very neat, Qiu Yue never stared at Yue Qingqian's medicine anymore.
After Qiuyue put down the medicine, she walked to Yue Qingqian's side and sharpened the ink for her, "I see that Niangniang is a little upset, but she is worried about Your Majesty again?" ”
Yue Qingqian muttered, "I don't know how Your Majesty is doing in Yuehua City now?" ”
Qiu Yue said with a smile: "Your Majesty is the Son of Heaven, naturally everywhere you go, there is a blessing to continue, Niangniang doesn't have to worry too much." It's better for Niangniang to take care of her body now, after all, such a big harem still needs to be managed by Niangniang. Besides, when His Majesty comes back, he definitely doesn't want to see Niangniang's body worse than before he left. ”
Yue Qingqian smiled and said, "Bring the medicine, just drink it in this palace." ”
Qiu Yue smiled and immediately took the medicine.
Yue Qingqian took it and blew it, just as she was about to drink it, but she didn't feel right when she smelled it. She paused, staring thoughtfully at the bowl of medicine.
"Mother, what's wrong?" Qiu Yue asked with some confusion.
Yue Qingqian put down the decoction in his hand and said to Qiu Yue: "Qiu Yue, apart from you, has anyone else experienced this medicine?" ”
As soon as Qiu Yue heard Yue Qingqian's tone, she sensed that something was wrong, and hurriedly said: "Hui Niangniang, this medicine was taken by the slave maid from the Tai Hospital, and it was grabbed by the people in the Tai Hospital according to the prescription prescribed by the two Tai Doctors. After that, from decoction to bringing medicine to Niangniang, it never passed anyone's hands, and it was all done by the slave and maid alone. Mother, but what's wrong with this medicine? ”
Yue Qingqian didn't know that she had too many suspicions and smelled the wrong taste, and besides, her own ability to predict in advance when facing danger had not appeared, so even she had some doubts about whether her guess was wrong.
Qiu Yue saw that Yue Qingqing was silent, so she said: "Niangniang, it's always right to be careful, since Niangniang thinks that there is a problem with this medicine, the slave maid will let the two imperial doctors come over to take a look?" ”
Yue Qing thought for a moment and said, "Qiu Yue, are the dregs of your decoction still there?" ”
Qiu Yue nodded and said, "Yes, the slave maid has not had time to fall down yet." Then the slave and the maid went and fetched it. ”
Yue Qingqian nodded and instructed, "When you take it, be careful and only take a part." The other part is disposed of, preferably in front of someone. ”
Qiuyue has been Mama Xie for more than a year, plus Qiushui and Yueqingqing have been mentioned from time to time, and they have been smart and transparent. At this time, she already knew the meaning of Yue Qingqian.
"The slave knows what the mother means, so the slave and the maid will go."
Yue Qingqian looked at the bowl of medicine, smelled the smell again, and still felt wrong.
It's not because of how smart her nose is, but because the smell has changed slightly. If it was just a little, she might not even notice it.
Qiu Yue came back soon, and then handed the medicine residue to Yue Qingqian, "Niangniang, this is the medicine residue." ”
Yue Qingqian nodded, and did not check the medicine residue, but said to Qiu Yue: "Qiu Yue, you quickly ask Qiu Shui to go to the Tai Hospital to invite two imperial doctors, just say that the palace is a little unwell." ”
"Yes."
"Wechen see the queen's mother." Liu Yi and Zhang Qing saluted to Yueqing.
"Excuse me, this palace asked the two of you to come over today, so that the two of you can see the difference between this medicine and this medicine residue and usual."
Liu Yi was a little nervous in his heart, could it be that the medicine that His Majesty changed made the queen suspicious?
Liu Yi and Zhang Qing glanced at each other, and their eyes fell on the medicinal juice and medicine residue that Qiuyue and Qiushui had brought over.
When the two of them smelled the smell of the medicine, they had already frowned, and then they looked at the medicine residue again, and their faces changed instantly.
When Yue Qingqian saw their faces, she knew that her guess was not wrong, and asked, "What did the two imperial doctors see?" ”
Liu Yi and Zhang Qing glanced at each other, and then Liu Yi spoke: "Hui Niangniang, this medicine has been added with an extra medicine, which has led to a big change in the properties of the medicine. It is not a lethal poison against other medicines. But Niangniang's body is weak, if it is used for a long time, Niangniang's body is only afraid that it will become weaker and weaker. In the end, he died of exhaustion. ”
Yue Qingqian was stunned for a moment, this is also a kind of *?
No wonder I didn't feel the danger.
Qiu Yue immediately knelt down and said: "It's all the slaves and maids who are not well supervised, and they actually let the traitor have an opportunity to take advantage of." Mother, punish the slave. ”
Yue Qingqian smiled gently, "This matter can't be prevented, you're not wrong, get up." ”
Qiushui helped Qiuyue up, and said indignantly: "Who is going to kill Niangniang, this mind is still so vicious." ”
Yue Qingqian's mind turned, and she said to Liu Yi and Zhang Qing, the two imperial doctors: "Two imperial doctors, please trouble you to keep this matter secret, and don't tell anyone about today's events." If anyone asks, they will only say that this palace is because of the recent worry about His Majesty, and they are a little uneasy. ”
Liu Yi and Zhang Qing are not new imperial doctors, they have long been accustomed to the intrigue of this harem, so they naturally know what to do.
The two immediately said: "Weichen obeys." ”
Since the man behind this wanted to harm her, she made the man think that he had succeeded, and she did not notice any clues.
After the two imperial doctors left, Yue Qingqian stared at the bowl of soup and medicine.
Unexpectedly, after Qin Moxuan left, even this harem became dangerous.
Her instinct was that it had something to do with the recent series of events. The other party was not only coming at Qin Moxuan, but also at himself.
It's just, what is the purpose of the other party?
Yue Qingqian only felt that the fog she was in now was really getting bigger and bigger.
Not long after Qin Mo announced his exit from the palace, so many things had already happened in the harem and the court. Now, the situation is getting more and more chaotic.
"Mother, what should I do now? Isn't Niangniang ready to find out the person behind this scene? Qiushui asked worriedly.
"Yes, Niangniang, this matter must have been provoked by those concubines in the harem. It's just that this time it's so deep that it's hard to guard against. If it weren't for the fact that Niangniang realized that something was wrong, I was afraid that she would have been tricked. Qiu Yue said indignantly.
Yue Qing thought for a while, and said: "Dispose of these things carefully, in the future, this medicine will still be fried as usual, and it will be served as usual, and we will also have to calm the hearts of the people behind the scenes, right?" ”
Qiuyue and Qiushui understood the meaning of Yue Qingqian, and Qiuyue said: "But Niangniang also needs these medicines to recuperate." ”
"If the palace drinks, the palace will let Moon Shadow take the prescription to the outside of the palace to grab the medicine, and then you can secretly decoct the medicine to the palace."
"Yes." As soon as Yue Qingqian said this, Qiuyue and Qiushui felt a lot more relieved.
"The less people know about this, the better." Yue Qingqian instructed.
Qiuyue and Qiushui replied: "Niangniang, please rest assured, the slaves and maids know what to do. ”
Yue Qingqian nodded and said, "Okay, you guys go down, after tossing for a long time, the palace is also a little tired." ”
"Yes." The two went down with the medicine and the dregs.
