Chapter 47: The Queen's Illness

Just as the two were talking, Qin Changqi's voice suddenly came from outside the door, "How is the princess?" ”

Cheng Singer hurriedly hid Qin Mo, if he knew that Qin Mo lied, I was afraid that he would leave a bad impression. As soon as Qin Mo was hidden, Qin Changqi walked in, and when he saw that the food on the table had not decreased much, his brows furrowed slightly.

"What? Is it the unappetizing meal? Qin Changqi said gently, "If you don't like your appetite, Ming'er will ask the small kitchen to cook you some of your favorite dishes." ”

Cheng Ge glanced at him indifferently and sighed, "The prince doesn't have to be like this, just say anything straight, you and I don't need these polite words." After speaking, he pulled the food on the table, picked up a chopstick and stuffed it into his mouth.

Seeing her like this, Qin Changqi knew that she was extremely disgusted with herself, so he simply sat next to her and said, "Can't we talk about it well?" Do you have to be so-for-tat? Do you like that Lu Changting so much? What's so good about him? This king is the dignified king of Chang'an, and he has what he wants. ”

Cheng Ge snorted coldly, rolled his eyes at him, and said lightly, "Am I the kind of woman who loves vanity?" If I like, even if he is a country man, I would still like to be with him. If I don't like it, even if he is the king of Chang'an, what does it have to do with me? ”

Qin Changqi saw that the two of them did not give in to each other, and he did not want to quarrel with her, he came this time to have important matters, not to quarrel with her.

"This king has something important, please help me." Qin Changqi thought of the queen's sick and weak Xizi in bed, and said, "The queen's mother is seriously ill, and the people in the hospital are helpless, and the emperor thinks that you have a lot of research on medical skills, so let you go over and take a look." ”

Cheng Ge patted the non-existent dust on his dress, stood up, and said indifferently, "Let's go, presumably the queen's illness can't be delayed." After saying that, he left the room directly, Qin Changqi sighed, glanced at the location where Qin Mo was hiding in the inner room, and turned around to follow Cheng Ge's footsteps.

Although I had known that the queen was seriously ill, when I really arrived at the queen's courtyard, I was still frightened by the crowd. A group of imperial doctors in the outer room knelt on the ground and discussed in a whisper, and the inner room was full of concubines and princesses who came this time, and Cheng Ge felt that he was almost out of breath.

The emperor sat in the first place with a solemn face, as if he was very worried about the queen, and when he saw Cheng Ge coming, he hurriedly said to her, "Don't salute, go first to see the queen's body." ”

"Yes." Cheng Ge walked straight to the queen's bedroom, which was brightly lit, but because the windows were closed, the room felt stuffy. However, at this time, Cheng Ge didn't dare to let people open the window easily, so he stepped forward to check the queen's pulse.

The queen was already unconscious at this time, and the whole person looked like time was running out, no wonder the emperor was so anxious.

Cheng Ge summons Fluttershy from within, asking her to take a closer look at the Queen's illness, but in a matter of moments, Fluttershy discovers the cause of the Queen's illness.

"It's a kind of poison called Qingsu flower, which looks like a peony, and many people can't tell it. It's also very toxic, and it doesn't hurt if it's placed with other flowers. It's just that," Fluttershy says after a pause, "if you grind its roots into powder, the smell will make you fall into a coma, and over time, you won't wake up again." ”

Pollen? Cheng Ge suddenly thought of the conversation he had overheard in the garden before, could it be that someone had poisoned the queen?

"Is there an antidote?"

"Naturally, there is." Fluttershy said triumphantly, her face full of pride and pride, "There are so many antidotes in the system, and the poison of the little Qingsuhua is completely out of the question. ”

As soon as the words fell, a porcelain bottle appeared on the small table in front of Cheng Ge, and it seemed that this was the antidote. However, Cheng Ge hesitated, if someone really poisoned the queen and wanted to kill her, wouldn't it be dangerous to destroy that person's plan by himself?

But if she doesn't detoxify, the emperor will blame her.

After thinking for a while, Cheng Ge still fed the pill to the queen, and after a while, the queen woke up. Before the queen could say anything, Cheng Ge covered her mouth, and the queen was startled.

"Queen Mother, don't be silent for the time being, and listen to me."

The queen recognized that the person in front of her was the princess of Chang'an, and the matter of her treatment and saving people had been spread all over the harem before, and she didn't think she would do anything bold, so she didn't make a sound.

Seeing that the queen was very cooperative, Cheng Ge told everything he overheard and the queen's illness. After all, the queen is the queen, so she naturally quickly knew what was going on, and she was very satisfied when she saw Cheng Ge being so honest.

"Queen Mother, if you want to find out who is behind the scenes, you also need to cooperate with your daughter-in-law and continue to pretend to be unconscious." Cheng Ge said her thoughts, Gong Dou is not her strong point, but if you add the queen, it will be easy to find out who is behind the scenes.

The queen nodded, and then continued to lie down and pretend to be unconscious as Cheng Ge requested. After Cheng Ge came out, he told the emperor that he still needed to study for a few days. Fortunately, the emperor did not blame her, and allowed her to study in her own courtyard, whether it was herbs or people, and fully cooperated with her work.

When night fell, the queen's courtyard was quiet, because the queen was seriously ill, many eunuchs and palace maids were busy, boiling medicine, boiling water, and a few palace maids would be left in the inner room to serve, but because the queen was unconscious, everyone did not stay by the queen's side.

In the middle of the night, the whole villa fell silent, and everyone fell into a deep sleep. A small figure sneakily entered the queen's courtyard through the back door, and there was no palace maid vigil in the inner room, the black shadow sighed, carefully took out a medicine bottle from his arms, and sprinkled it in the flower pot by the window in the queen's bedroom.

When I was sprinkling, I suddenly felt a gust of wind behind me, and when I looked back, there was an old woman standing. The black shadow sat on the ground in fright, and the whole room suddenly became brightly lit, and there were many palace maids and eunuchs who didn't know where they came out, and there were people who knew that they couldn't escape, and they wanted to bite their tongues and kill themselves, but their chins were removed by the old woman.

Several eunuchs tied him up and threw him in the courtyard, and someone had already gone to invite the emperor.

Cheng Ge only knew that he had caught the murderer and beat the eunuch to death, but no one knew who was behind the scenes. Cheng Ge secretly thought, I don't know which concubine wants to get the position of the queen, but her mother's family is powerful, and the emperor has no choice but to let the little eunuch take the blame.

On the second day, when Cheng Ge went to visit the queen again, it was still the same battle at the beginning, and presumably these concubines and princesses used this to stammer the queen.

Qin Cao looked at Cheng Ge with an indifferent face and nodded.
