Chapter 170: Uninvited Guest

As for the people in the Shang Palace Bureau, they all want to curry favor with this emperor's new favorite - Concubine Huixian. Naturally, he didn't ask much, and immediately sent someone to personally lead Jinyue to find Qingtan.

The transfer of Qingtan to Penglai Palace did not cause much turmoil in the harem. After getting the news, Xu sent someone to inquire that Qingtan was indeed just a Sihua palace maid, so she put her mind at ease and was still tossed by Concubine Huixian.

At the moment, what worries Empress Xu the most is her body, and her illness seems to have never improved in the past few days. After a few days in a row, I invited Yun Fan to check the pulse, and as the female doctor said before, I need to recuperate, so don't be sad and happy.

Qingtan in Penglai Palace is just a daily servant of flowers and plants. On the contrary, Empress Xu's illness is getting more and more serious, and she is groggy all day long and has no appetite.

In the name of sending flowers to the queen with the palace maid of Penglai Palace, Qingtan quietly sneaked to the back alley to pour the medicine residue, and picked up all the medicine residue that the queen had taken recently.

continued to follow the palace maid and returned to Penglai Palace as if nothing had happened. Standing side by side with Concubine Huixian, the small pavilion of the flower garden will be thrown away by the palace maid.

"Niangniang, I also know some medical science. You should know that although this thing is good, if it is combined with that thing, it becomes a harmful thing. Qingtan looked around and handed a medicine bag to Concubine Huixian and said softly: "Only by seeing everything can you see the reason." ”

Concubine Huixian raised her hand and sniffed the medicine sachet, and a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes, and she smiled: "You are a person with a heart."

"The slave and maid will not disturb the mother to enjoy the flowers and Yaxing, and retire first." After Qingtan saluted Concubine Huixian, he slowly retreated.

Putting the medicine bag in his sleeve, he walked out of the pavilion quietly. Because he was tired, he didn't let people follow up and serve in the temple. Concubine Huixian poured the medicine residue in the medicine bag on the case and carefully examined it, and her expression became more and more solemn.

Sure enough, Xu Houzhong was not poisonous, but just used the way of mutual restraint to make the queen look like she was poisoned. But for what purpose did you have to do with the queen's medicine? Thinking of this, Concubine Hui Xian moved to the window and threw the medicine bag into the pool, and then quickly wrote four words in front of the bookcase, and folded them carefully.

"Jinyue, arrange for someone to send this pot of autumn chrysanthemum to the Dingwang Mansion for the palace." Concubine Hui pointed to the pot of Qiu Ju on the desk and said, "Let Your Highness take care of this pot of flowers." ”

"Slaves and Slaves Obey"

Concubine Hui Xian watched as Jinyue instructed the chamberlain to move Qiu Ju out, and lowered her eyes to hide the emotions surging in her eyes. Lin Chen should be able to find the note hidden in the dirt, as long as Lin Chen sees the note, he will definitely go back to find Miao, and Miaoyao will naturally be able to guess what she means.

What's more, Qingtan's side should also be informed.

Ye Linchen, who had just finished practicing on the school field, was a little surprised when he received Qiu Ju sent by Concubine Huixian. The mother should know that she has never liked these flowers and trees, so why would she give herself a pot of autumn chrysanthemums?

Could it be that there is something mysterious in this flower, just thinking about Ye Linchen taking the flower pot and examining it carefully, sure enough, he found a note in the soil near the edge of the flower pot, and the note only said the words moon breath and carrot.

Is there any connection between monthly interest and carrots? Ye Linchen didn't know much about this way, and he couldn't figure out what Concubine Huixian meant. At that moment, I had to go to the Moon Lanxing Tower to find Xie Yaoguang.

Xie Yaoguang was playing against Gu Qingzhi in the water pavilion at the moment, and when he heard that King Ding was coming, Xie Yaoguang couldn't help but be surprised, and pushed Gu Qingzhi into the secret passage with a pull.

He tidied up his clothes casually and watched the chess game with his chin propped up.

"Miss, His Royal Highness King Dingwang has come down." Bai Lu personally led Ye Linchen to the door and said softly.

"Yes." Xie Yaoguang put down the chess pieces and got up to push the door to greet him, looked at Ye Linchen and smiled: "Your Highness is here, please take a seat." ”

Xie Yaoguang's eyes were filled with smiles.

Ye Linchen handed the note to Xie Yaoguang and said in a deep voice: "The mother concubine gave me a note today, this king really doesn't understand what the mother concubine meant, and I ask Yaoguang that you can answer a question or two." Recently, I heard that the queen's illness is getting worse and worse. ”

Xie Yaoguang swept the note, and the information about the moon fragrance and carrot flashed quickly in his mind. The light in his eyes was slightly condensed, and in an instant, there was a trace of deep meaning in his eyes.

The moon incense is not poisonous, but it has the effect of calming the mind and helping sleep, but once the carrot is used, the original non-toxic moon fragrance will evolve into a poisonous item.

Judging from the queen's situation, it seems that she has been poisoned for a while, but she really can't understand what benefits Rong does this to her.

"The Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, and now that there is no one in the harem to preside over major events, will the Rong family fight this idea." Ye Linchen said with a slight hesitation: "Take the opportunity to regain control of the palace?"

Xie Yaoguang's eyes froze when he heard this, and a smile froze on his lips. If Rong's idea is too dull.

Even if the Rong family has a meritorious role in raising the prince, even if they can rely on this to be restored and regain control of the palace. But now there are two people on top of it, Concubine Xian and Concubine De, and it is impossible for the Rong family to cross them no matter what.

Speaking of the Rong family, Xie Yaoguang couldn't help but think of the old news at the beginning. When the Lu family and Emperor Li knew each other young, the young couple was very affectionate.

Even later, Emperor Li set up a side concubine and did not cross the Lu family. After Emperor Li ascended the throne, although he established the Lu family as the queen, he didn't know why, but he became more and more alienated from the Lu family and favored Concubine Rong De.

After the Lu family became pregnant, they began to get intimate with the Lu family, and of course, the love for the Rong family did not decrease by half, and for a while, the two of them were favored together.

As for the Xu family, who was still a concubine back then, he has always been an inconspicuous existence in the harem, but because of his good relationship with the Lu family, he is quite stable.

The peaceful days lasted until Emperor Li was assassinated, and Lu was escorted to premature birth. At that time, the Lu family was in danger, and Emperor Li thanked the Lu family for his kindness and decreed that the son of the Lu family should be canonized as the crown prince, promising never to abolish it.

As a result, Lu couldn't afford to be ill for a long time, and finally died after a month. Not long after, Emperor Li decreed that the Xu family was crowned as the successor, and Concubine Rong De was only promoted to the concubine.

Thinking of this, a hint of sarcasm flashed in Xie Yao's eyes. At the beginning, the Rong family thought that raising the prince would be able to be crowned queen. As everyone knows, Emperor Li had another plan to promote the pregnant Xu family to the queen to settle the Xu family.

The crown prince has always been the son of Empress Yuan, and his mother-in-law has always been Empress Xu. And the Rong family is just taking the responsibility of upbringing, and now the prince has been ordered to move to the Hongjiao Hall to meditate on his own mistakes, and the Rong family has also been demoted for many days. Since the Rong family is not the biological mother of the prince, any one can be restored to power again by virtue of the prince.

Xie Yaoguang's eyes narrowed slightly, and a sneer spread on his lips. It seems that it is necessary for her to meet King Shou and use King Shou's hand to block the path of the Rong family. But who will be in power?

"Miss, King Shou is here. Now in the vestibule. Outside the door came the voice of the maid again.

Hearing the maid's report, Xie Yaoguang and Ye Linchen's faces couldn't help but change, Xie Yaoguang took Ye Linchen's hand and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness comes with me." ”
