Chapter 588: Poison and Antidote
Princess Zhao's heavy oath, some people believe it, some people don't believe it.
The people who believe it feel that Zhao Ge's reputation is there, and Princess Zhao has always been generous, and she is definitely not that kind of person.
The unbelievers feel that if the oath is useful, then there will be no grievances in the world. Only she has touched the little emperor's grandson, if it weren't for her, who else would there be?
Some people even think that maybe it is the conspiracy of the Thai royal couple, otherwise who would be idle to make them wedding dresses?
If it is said that it is the concubine who harms people, it doesn't make sense. Just for the emperor to take a look at it more? Just play so big? In case he gets rid of it, not only will he die, but even a large number of people in Qingnan will suffer. Not worth it! And she's not capable......
The emperor's eyes were also shooting around. He couldn't figure it out either.
Well, that's it, the more people don't want your wish to come true, the more you want to do it. The emperor didn't say anything, but he was a little heavier on Zhu Hongwen's support. At the same time, it is also a little lighter for the eighth child......
The King of Thailand also knelt down in agony, saying that this matter had absolutely nothing to do with them. The princess is of good character and is by no means that kind of person. There must be something missing that hasn't been found......
And Zhu Hongwen, who came to his senses, didn't hesitate to get up and speak for Princess Zhao.
said that Princess Zhao has always been kind and caring to him, and only cared about him a few words today, asked him about his studies, helped him wipe his sweat, wiped his mouth, and asked him not to run around, he was prone to illness when he sweated too much...... He believed that the imperial aunt had no ill will towards him.
When these words came out, whether they were true or not, in short, everyone's impression of Zhu Hongwen was better.
Even the emperor nodded secretly, as a bitter master, it was already rare to know that it was rare to judge rationally and calmly from the overall situation......
So this matter became an unsolved case.
How to check? Can't check. Princess Zhao checked it, it was clean, and so did the people around her, and there was no loophole. Just because she has been in contact with Zhu Hongwen, she said that she committed murder? Without evidence, it doesn't make sense.
But Princess Xing was not satisfied. My son is almost gone! It's just a hasty pass? No evidence? Of course not! Who doesn't hurry up after poisoning and then clean up, does he keep the handle and wait to be caught?
Princess Xing was not convinced, so she hated Princess Zhao. Before leaving, many people saw her staring at Zhao viciously, and she finally stepped forward and said in a low voice:
"You deserve it, you can't have a baby, you deserve it!"
"It's not me!"
"Whether it's or not, I've got you! I won't let you go! ”
Zhao felt tired again, is she at a loss for words?
Zhu Yongtai also came over there and glanced at Zhao coldly, thinking that she was troublesome and had affected him.
also looked at her with eyes, as well as the concubine. complained that she was useless in giving birth, but she was capable of making trouble.
and the arrogant Concubine Miao, quite proud:
"Sister, you're a real disappointment. The stomach is not angry, and the action is incompetent! Either you poison Zhu Hongwen, or your ability, my sister has to admire you. But I didn't expect you to be a person who has more than enough success and more than failure...... You, since you're so stupid, it's better to abdicate and make way for Xian earlier, don't drag the prince back, and don't embarrass your mother's family. ”
Zhao shivered all over his body, and felt a trace of remorse.
She shouldn't have married into the royal family.
It's so tiring.
In addition to her father-in-law, she is also the elder of the court, and many things naturally cannot be done according to the heart of the king of Thailand, so she needs to deal with many things.
After getting married, she couldn't catch her breath. The pressure of taking the heir, the pressure of having children, the pressure of helping, the pressure of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law with the concubine, and the pressure of the prince and her mother's family, all of them made her miserable.
It is under such tremendous pressure that the girls who got married at the same time became mothers one after another, but she was the only one, and there was no news at all. Her efforts were not appreciated, but she waited for her new sister to enter the house.
The Miao family took advantage of the concubine's momentum and was very rampant, not only did she not take her seriously in the palace, but also did not hide it several times, and used various means to lure away the prince who stayed in her house......
And her ancestors were all literati who were intrigued, and her background and cultivation made her disdain to use indiscriminate means to compete for favor. As a result, it is still yourself who is in a dilemma again and again.
Thinking that a year ago, she and Tao Yun were competing with each other for the nickname of "the first talented woman in Beijing", and she was still puzzled when Tao Yun withdrew. The two of them are one high and the other is low, but the current income is very different.
It's yourself who is wrong!
For a while, Zhao, who was left alone at the table, burst into tears.
Rong An looked at her and naturally didn't doubt her. But I can't help but sigh that this is the sadness of marrying into the royal family. No matter how rich your life is, no matter how many people you have around you, the words loneliness and bitterness in your heart are carried out for half a lifetime......
In such an unsolved case, it is the concubine who benefits in the end.
Although the imperial doctor wanted to ask her for an antidote, she refused indifferently: "Precious secret medicine, don't give it......
In the end, she saved Zhu Hongwen, and she took the credit in hand, and she successfully advanced to the first level.
She turned into a noble concubine.
Although the emperor still didn't look at her squarely, he rushed to save her today, and everyone in the palace was polite to her. What she saved was likely to be the future emperor. This life is worth a lot. This salted fish, maybe one day it will turn over?
And Princess Xing gave her a gift in one breath afterwards, and took Zhu Hongwen to thank her personally.
……
Winter goes to spring, and half a year flies by in a flash.
In the past six months, there have been no waves.
Changning's marriage gave Zhu Chengyi a headache.
is there, but he doesn't want to get married at all.
Everyone had promised her before that she would decide the choice of her husband, so it was not easy to force her.
Zhu Chengyi explained several times, and she was full of words.
"If there is no candidate, who will you marry? If you have a relationship with the royal family, I will resolutely not marry. If the family relationship is complicated or will involve the seizure of the heir, I will not consider it. I don't want people with bad character and habits. If the elders in the family don't get along, I don't want it. If you already have a room at home or have an unclear relationship between men and women, I don't want it. Also, at least those who can beat me, those who can accompany me back to Yan'an in the future, and those who promise not to take concubines in the future...... In short, I have been in Beijing for a year and a half, and I have not yet found a candidate who meets all the above conditions. Do you have one? ”
"...... "No! Asking for so much, naturally there is none!
"So, I'm in a hurry. If I can't marry someone who is satisfied, I won't marry. What does the lord of this county have? Why bother to get an unhappy man in front of you? Right? Changning patted his brother on the shoulder. Anyway, I don't have to pass on the ancestry, you can have a few more children, and you can settle the hearts of my father and mother. ”
After that, Changning walked away.
Zhu Chengyi scratched her hair and worried: "Will this stinky girl not be able to marry for the rest of her life?" ”
Rong An smiled: "She didn't meet someone who made her tempted." It's really going to make her die, and all of the above can be overcome! "If you can't touch it, there's nothing wrong with being chic and happy for a lifetime.
Who says a woman has to marry and have children? At this moment, Yan An doesn't need her to pay, she was bitter enough in her previous life, and she should be more comfortable in this life.
In this way, Changning's marriage continued to drag on......
And in the past six months, in addition to Zhu Hongwen's incident, there has also been an unsolved case.
On the first day of the lunar month, when the harem concubines asked the queen mother to say goodbye, Shu Guifei asserted that the queen mother looked wrong.
This is a strange question, of course the Queen Mother wants to ask.
Concubine Shu said that she was not sure, but the Queen Mother's face looked a little blue, and it could not be ruled out that she had been poisoned.
Is it blue-black? The concubines stared at the queen mother's face, not saying it, not feeling, it was really like it.
The Queen Mother was frightened, didn't she feel uncomfortable in her abdomen?
I found an imperial doctor for consultation.
The imperial doctor also said that it was true that the Queen Mother's pulse was weak.
"Not poison?" The Queen Mother suddenly became less relieved about the imperial doctor's diagnosis.
The imperial doctor said that the symptoms were not serious, and before the cause was uncertain, it would be good to properly regulate and drink a few doses of medicine.
The Queen Mother was afraid of death, and her scalp was numb when she thought that it might be poison, and she had some doubts about the determination of the imperial doctor.
Concubine Shu said that she can contribute a hundred poisons to clear it, and it should be able to cure the disease.
The Queen Mother thought that the little great-grandson had relied on two hundred poisons to clear the heavy poison, and he was still alive and kicking to this day, so there was no doubt about the medicinal effect.
A pill went down, and she really got better quickly.
When the emperor heard the news, he darkened his face.
He is more afraid of death than the Queen Mother, and he can't help but think about it.
On the first day of the new year, he originally came to accompany the Queen Mother for breakfast. But last night...... Ahem, the foreign domain paid some good tribute, and he went to Concubine Xi to test the efficacy of the medicine. Medicine, it's really good, it makes him feel that winter goes to spring, his blood is surging, he has returned to eighteen, and he can fight for another fifty years and regenerate dozens of them.
played too much, the early dynasty was not successful, and the breakfast with the queen mother was naturally canceled. When the news of the Queen Mother reached her ears, he had just gotten up.
After thinking about it at this moment, he couldn't help but wonder, could it be that there was a problem with the breakfast in Cining Palace this morning, and he originally came for himself? Otherwise, who wants to harm the Queen Mother? It doesn't make sense, does it?
Check out today's breakfast!
The grandmother who could test the poison and try it was fine, and no signs of poisoning were found in her body.
It's been a long time, and the rest of the breakfast has long been poured into the swill bucket. I will check it again now, and I really can't start it.
The imperial doctor said that it was not necessarily poison. But the queen mother and the emperor are like frightened birds, and they are uneasy.
The emperor was in a cold sweat and wanted to get into it. If he dies, many people will be happy, right? Who will it be? The Abolished Prince? Where is King Xing? Princess Xing? King of Thailand? Other princes? Tartar?
But if this is really someone's plan, there is no reason to only put such a specious poison and not cooperate with other means? For what? Inside and outside the palace, it is calm from top to bottom!
The emperor, who had been speculating for a whole day, finally found the concubine.
Ask for medicine!
For peace of mind, this is the best way to do it.
But Concubine Shu was faint: "There are only five in total, and only the last one is left." ”
The emperor asked for it, but Concubine Shu finally gave it.
The emperor took the medicine but did not take it, but secretly summoned Zhang Yuanshou of the imperial hospital.
The pills were thrown out, and the emperor's purpose was two, testing and dispensing.
Test the medicine to see if it can really cure all kinds of poisons and not be toxic.
If so, then we have to think of the same antidote.
I took half a pill and tested it on small animals, and this medicine was indeed effective against most poisons. As long as it is not the kind of poison that has a fast onset, it has some detoxification effect.
The other half of the pills that were studied were only one-fifth, and the imperial doctor only figured out some of the ingredients inside.
The emperor found Concubine Shu again and asked.
Yuan Ping: "This is the secret medicine of the witch doctor clan. If you can easily figure out the ingredients, is it still a secret medicine? Moreover, the grass used by the witch doctor clan is dug deep in the mountains, so I am afraid that Hua Tuo may not have seen it in his second life, right? ”
"You really don't have any medicine on hand?"
"It's gone. These five are also treasured by my mother. ”
"I ask for medicine."
"I'm afraid it's a little hard." Yuan Ping smiled. In life, there is no one who is not afraid of death. "I heard that this medicine is difficult to refine, and some grass needs chance to find it, so the amount of medicine produced by the witch doctor clan is very low, and they have to use it themselves, and even less is spread to the market, so they can't buy it with silver.
The reason why my family was able to get it was because my father had saved their patriarch. They have a lot of gratitude for my dad and will send one or two every year as a sign. If the emperor has a large demand, it is almost impossible. ”
"Then you find me a few, and I will think of your goodness." The emperor had indeed inquired about it, and it was not good to get this medicine.
"Since it is required by the emperor, the concubines should do their best." Yuan Ping spoke again: "The concubine has a request. ”
"You can't be promoted again. If you want to be a concubine, you must at least have children. ”
Yuan Ping sneered in his heart and snorted secretly. Heir? If he doesn't touch her, where will she have an heir! Old man, as if she were rare!
"It's not. The concubine wanted to ask for a favor. This time, the family gave me a dowry, a house in the capital and a maid before a few concubines. The concubine has been in the palace for so long, and she misses her hometown and old people. Sometimes it's boring, so I want to go out for a walk. Looking at the emperor's grace, you can remember the homesickness of the concubines who marry far away, and allow the concubines to go out of the palace once a month. ”
It's really not a big deal. Only then did the emperor remember that Yuan Ping had lived in the palace since he entered Beijing last year. A total of one out of the palace was also the time when the accident occurred at Yongming Lake. Thinking about it like this, it seems to imprison her.
The Emperor readily responded.
And Yuan Ping also wanted to ask the Zhang family and the Zhu family to help transfer three more pills.
I handed it over to the imperial doctor and confirmed that it was exactly the same as the previous medicine.
The emperor was finally relieved and hid the medicine privately......
Last month, King Xing went up the mountain to collect scenery and paint, but was stung by a poisonous spider, and when he returned home, his entire arm and lips were bruised. The emperor felt most sorry for this son of Empress Heyuan, how could he let him have an accident?
He didn't hesitate to take out an antidote, and it was also a medicine to get rid of the disease.
The effect of the medicine is too good, which also makes the emperor cherish this medicine more and value the concubine Shu more......
In the past six months, the Liao family has been there, as always.
Knowing that he was being stared at, he was honest up and down, and there was no abnormality.
And Liao Wenci has not heard from him in the past six months.
Under Rong An's signal, Wei asked people to use Rong An's name to quietly persuade Rong Ying to stop tossing, learn literature and practice martial arts, and coax the old lady more, if he can relax the Liao family's vigilance against him, maybe he will be released one day.
What else can Rong Ying do, he has to respond. At this moment, he was in a daze, and the biggest regret in his heart stemmed from the impulse to leave the Yu family that day, and at this moment Rong An had not forgotten him, and he was very grateful. He believed that as time went by, his father's heart would become softer and softer, and as long as he could go back, he would definitely be accepted.
He immediately asked someone to bring back the words, saying that as long as he could leave the Liao family, he would definitely be the son of the Yu family who made the Yu family's face shine......
