Chapter 22: Concubine Shu is poisoned

But she is a person who has lived two lifetimes, and if she can't even see through this little trick, it will really be in vain.

The green beads were still not at ease, so I came to another small bowl and scooped a little over.

"Niangniang, it's better to taste it first, if it's really okay, you can eat some more." She is also a little worried, now that the imperial concubine is in full swing, she still has to be careful.

Cui Ping ran over and snatched the bowl in her hand: "Luzhu, you are smarter than me, if there is really a problem with this bowl of mung bean soup, then you must take good care of the imperial concubine, we are favored by the Jing family, and we must not forget the kindness." ”

The two of them were miserable, as if they were going to say goodbye to life and death, Jing Chuchu really couldn't stand it, so he picked up the bowl and raised his head to take a sip.

"Mother, don't be careful, poisonous."

The two maids looked at her in unison, it was a bold drink, and they were so anxious that they couldn't even speak.

Jing Chuchu put down the empty bowl and rubbed his stomach: "Don't talk about the summer heat, drinking some chilled mung bean soup is indeed a relief from the heat, the two of you are pushing around, and when you drink it in the palace, it will not be cold." ”

She rolled her eyes helplessly, Concubine Shu was not a fool, she blatantly drugged her, now she is the emperor's love outside, and it would be too unwise to move her at this time.

"Mother, do you feel wrong? If there is something uncomfortable in your body, you must say it, and the slave will go to give you the imperial doctor. ”

She waved her hand with a headache: "You two just put your heart in your stomach, you don't have to think so much about the palace, how can it be poisonous to send mung bean soup so blatantly?" Unless Concubine Shu is tired of being alive, you two are thinking too much, don't scare yourself, and make the palace nervous together. ”

I really can't help it with two girls, saying that they are unreliable, but they are very serious about doing things.

I don't think about these things carefully, and I take it for granted that this is the case.

It really made her helpless.

"Niangniang, the slave has already given the lotus seed soup to the concubine according to your instructions, what should I do if there is some left?"

Cuiping went out very quickly, and rushed back early after delivering the things, without delaying outside for a moment.

Jing Chuchu thought for a while: "Then take the rest together, and go to the palace to meet the Queen Mother, I haven't seen you for two days, I really miss it." ”

She raised the corners of her lips without a trace, and if it wasn't what he expected, a court drama was about to begin.

The Queen Mother was taking a nap, and when she heard Mama Gui say that the imperial concubine was coming, she had some doubts in her heart.

"The imperial concubine has been receiving the emperor's favor for the past two days, shouldn't she be resting in her Wanjing Palace, what are you doing here?" The Queen Mother opened her eyes, and Mama Gui stepped forward and sat up.

"The queen mother, the hearts of the other concubines are easy to see, nothing more than to get the emperor's favor, to spread the branches for the royal family, and to keep the mother's family glorious, but our imperial concubines and slaves don't understand, a few days ago I heard that the imperial concubine persuaded the emperor to be wet with rain and dew!"

Mama Gui also told the truth.

"Oh? Is there such a thing? It's really strange that there are concubines who are really generous and can share a husband with other women. ”

Suddenly, the Queen Mother was also interested: "Then let the imperial concubine come in." ”

"Queen Mother, what did the concubine send you?" Before the person arrived, Jing Chuchu's playful tone, the Queen Mother suddenly remembered her daughter who was married far away.

"Why did the imperial concubine have time to come here today? But the emperor has wronged you? The Queen Mother looked at the person who came and lost all her looks.

"The Queen Mother, the concubine thought that the dog weather outside was extremely hot, and she was afraid that the Queen Mother would not be able to stand the heat, so she deliberately boiled some lotus seed lily soup, which has been chilled, can you taste it?"

Jing Chuchu blinked his eyes, innocent and beautiful, which made people can't bear to refuse when they see it.

"Since the emperor will have this thought, then present it, the mourning family happens to be a little thirsty now."

Jing Chuchu slapped his palm, and the green beads respectfully served the lotus seed and lily soup.

She diligently made a bowl of hands and served: "Queen Mother, the concubine thinks that this lotus seed lily soup is very appetizing, greasy and heat-relieving, and the emperor is eating in the palace of the concubine today, so she also sent some to the past, I don't know if the concubine and the emperor are drinking it now." ”

The Queen Mother laughed at this time: "The mourning family said that the imperial concubine is free to come to Shouxin Palace?" It turned out that the emperor was not in the Wanjing Hall now, since he came, how about talking to the mourning family? ”

Now the Queen Mother understands that the imperial concubine is afraid that she is jealous.

"Queen Mother, the concubines just feel that the lotus seed and lily soup prepared is a bit too much, and it will be wasted if you don't eat it, and it will cost us a lot of silver to build the palace, so we should save some at this time."

Jing Chuchu tentatively mentioned the matter of his third brother, wanting to probe the queen mother's tone.

"Well, what the imperial concubine said is, come here, divide the remaining lotus seed soup, and let everyone taste it to go to the summer heat." The Queen Mother didn't answer her words.

"Thank you Queen Mother for the reward." Mama Gui was in the same room, and finally the female eunuch of the middle palace knelt down to thank her.

Jing Chuchu's eyes flashed with thoughts, she may not be sensitive to her words, but the Queen Mother stopped talking at this time, and she couldn't sit like this.

"Queen Mother, the concubine heard that the construction has begun on the side of the palace, I believe it will be built in a few days, and the weather is starting to cool at that time, and I will go back just in time for the crisp autumn weather, the Queen Mother is really blessed." The Queen Mother ignored her, and she couldn't sit here without talking, so she could only find something to say.

"Imperial concubine, the lotus seed and lily soup you sent, the mourning family has already drunk it, if it's okay, please go back, the mourning family is tired and wants to rest."

The queen mother's heart is like a mirror, where is the imperial concubine coming to see her, she is asking for a reward.

Whether to reward the Jing family or not, that is the emperor's business, the emperor should make the decision, she should not interfere and will not interfere.

"Queen Mother, Concubine ......"

"Enlightenment...... Empress Dowager Qiyu, no, something happened to Concubine Shu, and the palace maid came to report that Concubine Shu was poisoned. ”

The little eunuch came to deliver the message, which surprised everyone.

The Queen Mother stood up in surprise: "What? What did you say? Concubine Shu is poisoned, hurry up and announce the imperial doctor. ”

Jing Chuchu secretly breathed a sigh of relief in a place where people couldn't see her, and it was really as she expected......

At this moment, the Queen Mother looked at her: "Imperial Concubine, just now I heard from the mourning family that the emperor was dining with the concubine, since the concubine was poisoned, go over with the mourning family to see if the emperor is okay." ”

"Yes, the concubine obeys!" Jing Chuchu lowered his eyes, meek and respectful.

On the way, Luzhu secretly pulled her sleeve uneasily.

Jing Chuchu glanced back at her at this time: "What's the matter?" ”

Lu Zhu stopped with her, and fell behind the Queen Mother and her party, and when she saw that everyone had gone to choose, she said uneasily: "Niangniang, the slave maid feels that this matter does not seem to be so simple, why did Concubine Shu get poisoned?" ”

Jing Chuchu made a straight face: "Green beads, Cuiping, but what did you two do?" ”

Both of them shook their heads in panic: "The slaves don't dare." ”
