Chapter 485: Clarification
The eyes of Emperor Jinghong and everyone fell on Concubine Shu.
Concubine Shugui's face was awe-inspiring, and she said in a deep voice: "What the princess said is not credible, the previous envoy of the Liu Yuan, the judge of the Zhang Yuan, and several others have already diagnosed and treated Xiao Yunpeng, and there are no signs of poisoning at all, why did you find out that it was poisoning?" For the sake of the reputation of the palace, the princess favored her own uncle and the palace could understand, but acting like this reversed right and wrong, but the palace could not agree. ”
What Concubine Shu said was not unreasonable, and everyone looked at Chu Junlan suspiciously, and the eyes of the six princes were even more resentful when they looked at Chu Junlan, as if they wanted to rush forward and strangle everyone who offended his mother and concubine.
Chu Junlan bowed his head and said: "What the noble concubine said is reasonable, but the courtiers have done an analysis when they are treating the second son, as long as the materials are complete, the courtiers can make the same medicine." ”
Concubine Shu looked at Chu Junlan suspiciously.
Emperor Jinghong's eyes when he looked at Chu Junlan were also unfathomable.
The sixth prince said coldly: "You are the one who will not be poisoned." You used that poison to stimulate Xiao Yunchang to offend my mother? What kind of heart do you have! ”
Chu Junlan Wan'er: "The Sixth Highness has misunderstood. If this poison is on weekdays, the courtiers can't make it, and the courtiers also said that as long as the materials are complete, the same medicine can be made, but the difficulty is that the materials are complete. ”
The people present were all relatives of the emperor, so they naturally knew that this Qingxuan cinnabar was a special offering in the palace, and they were not even seen in the prince's mansion.
The scene was silent, and everyone was silent, silent for a while.
Concubine Shugui lowered her eyes, after all, she has been up and down in the palace for many years, and she has seen a lot of winds and waves, and the situation has become worse and worse, but she is still calm.
Although the sixth prince didn't know what his mother had done, he could guess something about what he could see from Concubine Shu's expression, and even said: "It is said that medicinal materials are rare, but it is not rare for you, right?" I see that the second brother, third brother, and ninth brother are all close to you, and Xiao Xu didn't often walk around the palace before. ”
The words of the six princes were really unfriendly, and when he said this, many people's eyes fell on Chu Junlan and several princes.
Many people with dirty thoughts are like this, seeing beautiful women and men walking together, they don't need to know anything to be able to quietly make up too many heads and tails, and now the words come out of the mouths of the six princes, could it be said that the "little doctor fairy" is such a lewd woman, and can she get close to several princes?
The faces of the Second Prince, King Qin, and the Ninth Emperor were all ugly for a moment.
The second prince and the sixth prince have always been different, and when Emperor Jinghong was "seriously ill", it was even more troublesome to the point that the courtiers fought hard, although the six princes were not lightly angry, but because of the presence of Emperor Jinghong, there was no words to take the initiative to lead the war.
King Qin does not fight for the throne, he has the most sacred heart, and he has always been an indisputable character, but when the six emperor brothers said this, they just laughed and did not speak.
Only the Nine Emperor Princes, who are young and not so deep-minded, and he and Chu Junlan have always been good friends, but it is not because of the personal relationship between men and women, but because he feels that Chu Junlan is kind, but he is sarcastic by the six princes in public on such an occasion, where can the Nine Emperors stand it?
"Brother Liuhuang's words are funny, if the palace people who know each other with the sister-in-law are suspicious, then the concubine went to the palace a few days ago. ”
"You!" The six princes glared.
"Alright." Emperor Jinghong opened his mouth with a gloomy face, although his voice was not high, but it made everyone stop, and the Nine Emperor Princes and the Six Princes all stood aside with their heads bowed.
Old Patriarch Xiao slowly spoke at this time: "Your Majesty, will this matter continue to be thoroughly investigated?" ”
In a word, the focus that made everyone be crooked was pulled back.
Princess Zhang was afraid that Emperor Jinghong would not deal with it impartially, so she stood up anxiously: "Your Majesty, the courtiers ask the emperor to make decisions for Peng'er!" ”
Chu Junlan didn't want to carry the black pot for Concubine Shugui, but she was not as impulsive as Princess Zhang, so she just stood aside with her eyes down and respectfully.
Emperor Jinghong's face turned black into the bottom of the pot. If he didn't investigate thoroughly, how many people would say that he was seeking personal gain?
In the end, his reputation as the Son of Heaven is more important than who he loses.
Thinking of this, Emperor Jinghong looked at Chu Junlan: "In order to confirm the truth of your words, I will instruct someone to prepare the materials you say." ”
Chu Junlan saluted and said, "Yes." ”
Concubine Shu dignified her sideburns. In just a moment, Chu Junlan opened a prescription, listing the required medicinal materials and a set of application tools.
With the Holy Purpose, things are prepared very quickly, but in an hour, everything is ready.
A generous table was placed in the room, and Chu Junlan was here, explaining and dealing with it in public.
"This thing is supposed to be a spice, it works quickly when ignited, but it is not easy to notice, but now that time is also tight, these I have temporarily configured do not consider the degree of secrecy, but the effect is the same."
Chu Junlan said, and put the prepared medicinal herb and incense paste into the jade incense burner that he found temporarily and lit it.
"Because the balm that has just been prepared has not been treated, the onset of ignition will be slower." Chu Junlan held the incense burner and spared two laps in the hall.
The room gradually diffused with a faint miscellaneous fragrance, not pungent, not fresh, mixed with a faint smell of medicinal herbs and grass, but not unpleasant, like some unknown name of lavender and bedding spices.
The people present didn't notice anything at first, but in just a moment, everyone's mood changed visibly, and some of them even turned red, and they were afraid of embarrassment in front of the saint in excitement, and they were desperately patient.
Chu Junlan extinguished the incense, changed to an incense burner and lit another incense, which was mixed with a faint fresh mint gas, which instantly made people feel like a sudden breeze blowing on a hot summer day, which made people feel instantly refreshed, and the uncontrollable excitement just now, and the strong desire to get something gradually extinguished.
Chu Junlan said at this time: "Presumably, everyone knows the power of this medicine. I believe that only you know how you feel, what you want to get, and what you want to do. It's just a little smell, I didn't use too strong spices, and I used the antidote in time, what if the second son inhaled a large amount of this poisonous incense? ”
Everyone's faces were different, and Princess Zhang was already covering her face and crying: "Who harmed my son!" ”
Emperor Jinghong's complexion changed a few times, he stood up and faced Princess Zhang, and said, "I will definitely give you an explanation for this matter." ”
Princess Zhang hurriedly knelt down and saluted, kowtowed, and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!" ”
Emperor Jinghong turned around and ordered everyone to disperse, and returned to the palace with the palace concubines and princes.
Chu Junlan and the Zhang family stood together to greet the emperor, and said goodbye to the elders of the Immortal Bridge.
When she got to the carriage outside, Princess Zhang suddenly stopped Chu Junlan: "Since you know that my son was killed, why didn't you say it earlier!" ”
Chu Junlan raised his eyebrows and asked rhetorically: "Why don't you explain to me first, the princess explains to me that I am 'not capable as a doctor, but I diagnose and treat the second son, all for my own selfish desires', what is the matter with this statement?" ”
Princess Zhang's face was really a little ugly, and Chu Junlan asked so directly in front of so many subordinates, which was equivalent to rubbing her face on the ground.
"You are presumptuous, don't forget what your identity is?"
"You are a mother-in-law, I am a daughter-in-law, I dare not forget my identity, but if it wasn't for the princess crying at that time, I wouldn't have taken action to save the life of your second son. I didn't expect Princess Zhang to bite back, I was really cold," Chu Junlan shook his head and sighed, "When the emperor asked today, I just didn't want to bully the king, as for you, if you are calculating me, why do you ask me not to count you?" ”
Speaking of this, Chu Junlan didn't seem to be able to see Princess Zhang's face Tieqing, and said with a smile: "I'll help you get into the car?" ”
Princess Zhang suddenly felt that she had lost face, gritted her teeth and said, "How dare you work for you!" ”
"You're welcome, it's my daughter-in-law's duty to serve you." Chu Junlan held Princess Zhang's hand, politely put the person into the carriage, and ordered the subordinates with the carriage to serve him well, and then returned to his carriage.
Princess Zhang sat in the car and stomped angrily.
Chu Junlan got into the car with a smile and ordered: "Don't be in a hurry to go back to the house, let's go to the prince's army camp first to see your prince." ”
Zi Yan quipped: "Do you miss the prince?" ”
"I only see him once every five days, and he is on an errand, so no one is allowed to go and see him?"
"Yes, of course." Zi Yan and Shi Yuan both laughed.
Jing Yu, Huo Yeqing and the others were also in a good mood when they saw that Chu Junlan had solved the matter perfectly, and they laughed together.
Chu Junlan's master and servant set off to the prince's army camp with a smile, met Xiao Xu, chatted for a while, and briefly explained the affairs of the family.
Xiao Xu was wearing an ordinary soldier's battle jacket, his posture was as straight as a green pine, and his temperament was cold and elegant, and he really didn't look like a pawn wearing a battle jacket.
Hearing that such a big thing happened at home, Xiao Xu said worriedly: "You didn't suffer a loss, did you?" Actually alarmed the Immortal Bridge? ”
"We just came back from the Immortal Bridge, everything that should be explained has been explained, the emperor has his own decision, don't worry."
Xiao Xu looked down at Chu Junlan, his eyes were full of guilt, thinking of what Jing Yu said, Chu Junlan was like this in the past, he carried it together when he encountered something, never cried in front of him to show weakness, and always looked like he could resist anything.
But she's just a little girl.
As long as he thought of Chu Junlan's many sacrifices to him, but he didn't remember anything after waking up, the guilt in his heart surged up like a tide, almost drowning him.
"I'm sorry." Xiao Xu couldn't help but stretch out his hand, but hesitated when he wrapped his arms around her delicate body.
Chu Junlan sensed that Xiao Xu's mood was wrong, and he didn't know what he was struggling with, so he simply took the initiative to wrap his hands around his thin waist and rubbed his face against his chest.
"What are you sorry about, it's not you who hurt me. I have developed a new medicinal diet, and when you are gone, I will go home and give you a taste, which is good for your body. ”
"Okay." Xiao Xu stretched out his arms and slowly landed on Chu Junlan.
Chu Junlan said with a smile: "By the way, I also want to write a booklet to record the medical skills and acupuncture techniques I have learned." I've also thought about it these days, medical skills can't be cherished by a broom, although I am not talented, but it is good to be able to share others to save one more person. ”
When Xiao Xu heard this, he hugged him tighter: "It's good that you can think like this." ”
