Chapter 57: A Deliberate Counterattack (5)

However, Goryeo's purpose was not to encroach on the rivers and mountains of Northern Xia, they were only a square inch of land for Northern Xia, and they did not have the confidence to swallow elephants.

Their purpose was to take advantage of the Northern Xia to attack the Boyi Kingdom.

But once Goryeo succeeded in making the Boyi Kingdom their vassal state, the northern and southern roads to the sea in Northern Xia were cut off, so of course Northern Xia would not take advantage of this road.

It's a good festive day, how can such things happen one after another, whether the prince is blessed or in constant calamity.

"Your Majesty, General Mo is already waiting in the upper study, and King Beiqing has also rushed back from outside."

"Your Majesty, General Mo has already sent someone to urge."

"Half an hour later, I went over and told them to wait." Miyazawa still wanted to wait for Mo Ran to wake up, so that at least he could deal with things with confidence.

"Your Majesty, Niangniang has slaves and maids and Imperial Physician Xu to watch, there will be no problem, the emperor should go to see General Mo and the prince first."

Cen Er on the side said that she had met Mo Nan a few times, and knew that he was stable and introverted, and he would not panic easily, but this time he actually urged, there must have been something terrible.

"Concubine Li will definitely want to see me when she wakes up, and she will be disappointed if I leave like this." He stared at Mo Ran, whose eyes were closed and his face was pale.

"The slave will tell Niangniang, the emperor should not let General Mo wait for a long time." Cen Er spoke again.

Miyazawa Kun thought for a while, asked Imperial Doctor Xu again, and knew that Mo Ran was no longer in the slightest danger, so he left with peace of mind.

"When the mother woke up, she immediately sent someone to inform me."

"It's the emperor."

After Miyazawa Kun left, Mo Ran coughed violently again, and even coughed up blood, but he still didn't fully wake up, and he was in a daze.

Cen Er was frightened, pulled the Imperial Doctor outside, and asked quietly: "Imperial Doctor Xu, Niangniang's poisonous ......"

"Rest assured, the lower official is still sure of medical skills."

"Then does Imperial Doctor Xu have a guess?" She saw that Imperial Physician Xu was very familiar with this poison, and it should not be easy to find this remote poison.

According to this, it should be feasible to find the person who poisoned it.

"Girl, don't ask, don't ask......" he shook his head, not wanting to say anything more.

Seeing this, Cen Er returned to the inner room with great interest.

And in the Hall of Flowers

Although Qi'er's full moon ceremony was interrupted, Concubine Ting's mood was good at the moment.

"Aoba, how is the concubine who asked you to ask this palace?" She leaned back on the soft couch and asked the maid to paint her nails with kodan.

"Back to Niangniang, Concubine Li Niangniang was poisoned and has not woken up yet, Imperial Doctor Xu has not come out for three hours inside, I am afraid that it will be more auspicious."

When Concubine Ting heard this, the corners of her mouth smiled lightly, and she said, "She will wake up, but not now." ”

Concubine Ting didn't have to hold this full moon ceremony for Qi'er, this was just part of her plan, and there was one more thing, which was to kill Concubine Li's favor.

"How did Niangniang know that Concubine Li would wake up? After all, the poison of Nanqi ......"

"What? South lacquer poison? She interrupted what Aoba was about to say.

"Yes, Niangniang, the slave maid went to inquire, and the people in Qingli Palace said that Imperial Doctor Xu diagnosed it, and Concubine Li Niangniang was poisoned by Nanqi, and life and death are out of her own control, it depends on the will of God."

Concubine Ting's thoughts were completely confused, she poisoned Concubine Li, poisoned in wine, snow toad poison, extremely yin to cold, her purpose was to make Concubine Li never conceive a child again.

If Concubine Li drank it, she would be in a coma for three days, but she would not have to worry about her life.

But what Qingye inquired about was that Concubine Li was poisoned by Nanqi, she knew about the poison, and her cousin had been to Lingnan when he led the army, and he almost fell into this poison.

She watched Concubine Li drink the wine with her own eyes, how could she not get the snow toad poison?

"Aoba, can you inquire clearly? The people of Qingli Palace said it themselves? If it was true, her plan would have been completely disrupted.

"The slave asked very clearly, and she also said that she heard what Imperial Physician Xu said with her own ears, and Imperial Physician Xu's words would not be false." Before Aoba came to report, she thought that Concubine Li's poison was caused by Concubine Ting, after all, her behavior this morning was indeed a little weird.

But now Concubine Ting's surprised expression doesn't seem to be pretending, not to mention that she doesn't need to hide anything in front of a little slave.

"You take care of the prince, go out to the palace."

After speaking, the court concubine hurriedly walked out of the flower hall.

She scurried around the palace into a room that seemed to be abandoned.

From the outside, the lattices were broken and covered with a thick layer of dust, and the paper covering the windows stuck to the windows like patches, without the slightest effect of blocking the wind.

The red paint on the sash on the door has long since peeled off, revealing the color of the logs inside, which is also black and indescribably desolate.

If you hadn't been here, no one would have believed that there would be a slum-like place in such a magnificent, luxurious and absolutely luxurious Northern Xia Imperial Palace.

The ground was also full of rotten fallen leaves, as well as fallen broken tiles, and the court concubine didn't care about these now, and walked into the room in a few steps.

"Po Wu?"

"Po Wu?"

Squeak ......

The box in the room suddenly opened, and a withered hand stretched out from the box, without a trace of blood.

"Who doesn't have long eyes, and comes to disturb my wife's sleep again."

The one in the box is Wu Po, who doesn't sleep in the bed, but sleeps in the box, but Concubine Ting glanced at the dirty and blackened bed, and there are some green hairs on it, which is not much better than this box.

"You mother-in-law, there can't be anything wrong with the medicine I gave me this morning, right?" Seeing that she didn't have any good words like this, Concubine Ting asked in a cold voice.

"Wu Po's medicine has been in the palace for decades, and there has never been a mistake, it must be you who are wrong, you are wrong......"

She trembled and came out of the box and pulled out a golden porcelain bottle from her bosom.

"Snow toad poison, a woman will be infertile for life if she gets a drop, and the mother-in-law's medicine is the most effective, and there will be no mistake."

Seeing that she was so determined, Concubine Ting asked again: "You won't give other medicine to this palace by mistake, right?" ”

"The mother-in-law is old, but she is not dizzy, and she can still see what medicine she can see."

"But ......" But Concubine Li was not poisoned by the snow toad, but by the southern lacquer poison.

"Good for yourself......"

"Good for yourself......"

"Mother-in-law, I gave you the medicine for the sake of the first emperor's face, if you come to bother me again, mother-in-law will let you taste this medicine yourself."

The letter that Concubine Ting held this morning was written by the Emperor Taishang himself, and the He family got it by chance, and when she entered the palace, her father handed it to her to hold in case of emergency.

But she never expected that the person in the palace who could turn things around in the letter turned out to be a mother-in-law who was half-cut into the ground.

But if Concubine Ting asked again, Wu Po just didn't say a word, and she had no choice, so she left in disgrace.

Wu Po looked at the direction she left and sighed, she is a poor person in the palace again, she can't ask for it, she can't ask for it......

She has been in the palace for decades, experienced the rule of three generations of emperors, and the palace people have come and gone, and she has gradually become desolate here.

What remains unchanged is that the palace is miserable.

Maybe my mother-in-law gave her this medicine today, which can be regarded as the last favor of that person.

But they have done iniquity......

Concubine Ting returned to the Flower Palace, how could she think that something was wrong, the medicine was put into the wine by herself, and she also saw Concubine Li drink it with her own eyes, why was it transferred halfway?

Thankfully, the person who dropped the bag was a goal for herself, but her plans couldn't be carried out after that......

"! There is news from Qingli Palace again! Aoba hurried in.

"How?"

"Concubine Li is awake."

Mo Ran, who had been in a coma for a long time, finally opened her eyes faintly, her first action was to lift the quilt on her body, but she found that her arms were soft and weak.

"Cen Er?"

Cen Er stood in front of the table and didn't know what he was doing, but when he heard his voice, he was even more stunned, and he was overjoyed in an instant.

"! Sissy is awake! ”

Her voice attracted the palace people of Qingli Palace, and they all rejoiced, and those who handed water and handkerchiefs proposed to inform the emperor first.

"Hey, don't, don't go yet, call Imperial Doctor Xu in first." Imperial Physician Xu has been guarding outside, and Cen Er was the first to react, holding down the one who was going to inform the emperor.

"The slave maid went to call Imperial Doctor Xu."

"Niangniang is fine, the task of the lower official is also completed, and it is time to inform the emperor." When Imperial Physician Xu entered the door, he saw Mo Ran's face, although it was still pale, it no longer had the terrifying cyan color just now.

"Lord Xu, you ......."

"Niangniang, the duty of the lower official is to ensure that you are worry-free in the palace."

"Thank you, sir."

In the study here, Mo Nan and Mei Liangyu had a disagreement on the matter of Goryeo.

"The He family can't send people to attack, He Ningkong has force, no brains, and can't stop with Goryeo at all, so the ministers should invite themselves to fight!" It was Mo Nan who spoke, and when he heard that Goryeo was actually going to attack the Boyi Kingdom, even if he was out of the jurisdiction of the Boyi Kingdom, he couldn't bear it.

Mei Liangyu did not agree with him to lead his troops to attack, "Your Majesty, although General Mo is undefeated, he is a member of the Boyi Country after all, so he should avoid suspicion." ”

"Avoiding suspicion? You didn't know where you were when General Ben was fighting for the emperor, now come and tell me to avoid suspicion? When Mo Nan heard him say this, he was also angry in his heart.

He didn't say that he was the main hero, besides, when the emperor ascended the throne, among the subject countries, Na Boyi was the first to stand up and express his support for him to sit on the throne.

"Mo Nan, you also know that Liangyu didn't mean that, he also thought about Beixia for the sake of Beixia." Kun Miyazawa stood up for them to make peace.

"Can he come and suspect me for the sake of Northern Xia?"

Miyazawa Kun actually wanted Mo Nan to go in his heart, after all, the entire army of Northern Xia was now under the control of Mo Nan, and many of them were the old troops he brought from the Boyi Kingdom, all of whom were fierce generals with one to ten.

Besides, the relationship between Boyi and Goryeo, Mei Liangyu went to investigate this time, they did not have any secret collusion, and he didn't understand why Mei Liangyu would not let Mo Nan lead the troops.

Fortunately, there is no rush to decide on the candidate today, and it is not too late to select the pioneer general first, and then the general.

At this time, the people from Qingli Palace came.

Li Dequan came in with a happy face and said, "Your Majesty, Concubine Li is awake!" ”

Miyazawa Kun has been worried about Mo Ran in his heart, his mind is always wandering, and the quarrel between the two of them is really annoying, as soon as he heard that Mo Ran had woken up, he hurriedly dispersed them and drove to Qingli Palace.

"Your Majesty, slow down, just now the people from Qingli Palace reported that Niangniang just woke up, and it doesn't hurt if you go to the meeting late." Li Dequan only felt that his steps could not even catch up with half of the emperor, and Miyazawa Kun's steps were as big as if he was about to fly.

Listening to his words, Miyazawa Kun stopped his footsteps, turned his head and asked, "Who asked you to investigate, who poisoned Niangniang, and what did you find out?" ”

If you want to say that you have found out something, there is really something, but he doesn't dare to say, after all, there are only two serious ladies in the palace now, this one has an accident, and that one can't escape the relationship, sure enough, he really found out what happened.

A palace maid who served wine at the banquet said that she had seen the court concubine Niangniang in the imperial dining room, when the banquet had just begun and the wine had not yet been served.

Although this is not conclusive evidence, just by one sentence and the emperor's favor for Concubine Li, it is really possible to abolish the concubine and chase the cold palace.

But behind Concubine Ting is the entire He family, she is the daughter of the He family's main house, and the He family has the idea that she can ascend to the back position, if in the end, Concubine Ting's accident has not happened, and the He family knows that she has reported Concubine Ting, and she is afraid that her life will not be easy.

In the final analysis, Concubine Li still has no background, General Mo is a courtier of Northern Xia, and the country of Boyi is thousands of miles away, and there is no one to rely on, so it is easy to bully.

"Back to the emperor, the slave checked for a long time, except for finding out, the poison was in the wine, and there were no other clues." In the end, he decided to side with Concubine Ting, after all, she had a strong maternal family.

"What do you want! I can't find out anything like this! Miyazawa Kun was troubled for a while, "Go and pass on my message, this matter will be handed over to the King of Beiqing to investigate, you must be impartial and selfless, no matter who is found, you must report it truthfully!" “

Li Dequan breathed a sigh of relief, and went to find King Beiqing, at this time, he should not have left the palace yet, and he could catch up if he walked quickly.

"Ran'er, how is it, are you still uncomfortable?"

When Miyazawa Kun entered the Qingli Palace, Mo Ran had just finished drinking the medicine prescribed by Imperial Doctor Xu before putting it down.

"I'm fine, I'm still a little tired, but it's not in the way."

He also heard it, Mo Ran's voice was still a little vague and weak, and his tone was also gentle, not as energetic as usual.

"Ran'er, it's not good for me, I put you in the harem, and you are ...... by others."

"Nothing, I understand." Mo Ran's soft words interrupted him.

"After all, it is the most poisonous woman's heart."

Women are ruthless, and so is she.
