Chapter 30: Stupid poisoning
Although she had already guessed in her heart that this must have been given to Concubine Lan by the emperor later, thinking that Concubine Lan wanted this painting before, she dedicated it to the emperor, and he gave it to Concubine Lan.
"What about my father's things? What the mother wants, the father will give it, and the queen mother should have not been given by the father for a long time, right? Ronghua chuckled.
Zhen'er has always been a straightforward person, and when she saw Ronghua like this, she didn't care whether she was a princess or not, so she immediately said angrily: "Even if Concubine Lan is promoted to a concubine, what if she is favored?" The mother's family is still from slavery as usual, and she can't even count as a family, so she dares to compare with her mother? β
The queen is the daughter of a big family, if you talk about her background, in this harem, it is obvious that the beauty is more noble than her, and even if the queen secretly lynched Concubine Lan, the emperor did not dare to touch her.
"You, you bitchβ"
"The princess doesn't have to worry about Zhen'er," the queen blamed Zhen'er, and let her retreat behind her, with a smile on her face, but there was no warmth in her eyes: "The princess is going to send this painting back to the palace this time?" β
"Exactly, since the queen mother loves these danqing things, how can the mother concubine take advantage of others?"
The queen sneered in her heart, taking the favor? That little slut didn't take much? This time it was just a demonstration again, but she didn't show it on her face, and said with a gentle face: "Then tell your mother, I know her gratitude, you haven't had dinner yet, and it just so happens that Mrs. Jing'anhou is also here, so it's better to dine with the queen mother." β
Ronghua's eyes widened suddenly, that woman turned out to be here too! She suddenly thought of Ye Mingting's warning to her earlier, and she was angry, what good is this woman!
Bai Yulan didn't want to stay behind the curtain now, so she opened the curtain and walked in front of Ronghua, dressed luxuriously and exquisitely, like a natural nobleman.
"Princess, courtiers are also ...... here by chance"
"It was Madame who accidentally broke her knee when she saluted me, and Marquis Jing'an knew it, so let Madame stay here so that the imperial doctor in the palace could show Madame to it, so as not to get a scar." The queen interrupted Bai Yulan's words and said with a smile on her face.
Although what the queen said was also true, how could she feel as if she was a target for glory! This queen shouldn't have deliberately made her angry!
If he broke a little skin, he was going to call the imperial doctor, and he had to stay in the queen's palace, Ronghua gritted his teeth and said, "It's been a long time since I've had dinner at the queen mother's place, and Hua'er can't ask for it." β
The queen nodded, and the two played a good mother-son relationship with fake affection.
"In that case, let's go to the backyard of the main palace and sit down, the main palace is planning to eat there again." The queen glanced at Zhen'er and ordered, "Zhen'er, you go and prepare." β
There was a strong sense of calculation in his eyes, but he did not hide it.
Zhen'er nodded and quietly retreated.
Bai Yulan looked at Zhen'er's distant figure, and had some strong doubts in her heart, but it was not easy to show it.
The queen took the two of them to the backyard of her palace, sure enough, it was the queen's net worth, this backyard was gorgeously repaired and beautiful, there was a grape trellis in the yard, and a rattan chair was placed below, exuding a faint fragrance, and there was a small pavilion outside the palace, built in the middle of a blue lake, and even a stage was there.
The place where a concubine in this palace lives should only be so big, the queen really has a rich family, and this palace is not a disadvantage at all, I am afraid that even the emperor's Chengqian Palace cannot be compared.
Ronghua was also the first time to come to the queen's backyard, obviously surprised by such a good decoration, but he still said proudly: "The queen mother's palace is really missing Your Majesty, and it is becoming more and more deserted, and she doesn't even have to eat lychees, so she actually planted this grape with her own hands." β
The queen also ignored her, but in her eyes, there was obvious mockery and disdain.
Bai Yulan recognized that the grape was not an ordinary thing, looking at the shape of the grape and the branches and leaves of the grape vines, etc., she roughly guessed that it should be a thing of Fanbang, even if Fanbang pays tribute every year, but it is still difficult to take out such a living grape shelf and move it over, it should be that the queen herself got the seedlings over there and transported them to be carefully cultivated.
This glory is really short-sighted.
Although Bai Yulan knew that the queen wanted to make her face glory, she was more inclined to the queen than Ronghua, after all, she was not a brainless person.
"Mother." Bai Yulan stepped forward to hold her hand, and the maid next to her glanced at the queen and said, "Niangniang, the slave maid will retreat first to urge dinner." β
The queen didn't look at her either, and after nodding, the maid glanced at Bai Yulan with a deep meaning and retreated.
This Bai Yulan helped the queen and went to the pavilion, there was a round table and four stone benches under the pavilion, after Bai Yulan helped the queen to sit down, the glory naturally followed, and he was angry.
Rong Hua was speechless for a while, and said: "Don't think that if you get the queen's favor, you can deal with me, my mother is the favorite concubine." "Completely forgot the warning that Ye Mingting gave her before.
Bai Yulan was speechless in her heart, this Ronghua really has some problems in her brain, she really can't understand how she has survived in the palace all these years, the queen's family is so big, the emperor doesn't dare to move, you dare to ridicule others as abandoned concubines now? It's really a rusty brain.
The queen didn't blame this Ronghua for being stupid, but she didn't have much mood swings, but Ronghua was a little late and stopped talking.
"Madame thinks that she should be very affectionate with Master Hou, this palace saw Jing'an Hou today, and she was very nervous about Madame." The queen took Bai Yulan's hand over and rubbed it carefully.
"Tomorrow, the emperor is going to hunt in the hunting grounds, and there will be many nobles who are going to go, and the palace knows that you don't know a few people in this capital, so I won't wait for the Marquis of Jing'an to pick you up, and let the Hou Ye wait for Mrs. in the hunting ground, but the palace is worried that the Hou Ye will blame the palace at that time, what does the lady mean?" The queen is kind and seductive.
Bai Yulan frowned, in fact, she didn't want to go much at all, but looking at the queen, she didn't seem to have the power to say no, after thinking about it, she still nodded slowly.
"Since the mother is willing to take the courtiers with her, it is the honor of the courtiers." When Bai Yulan looked up, she saw her calculating eyes fleeting.
Ronghua was on the side, and when he saw that the queen and Bai Yulan were chatting with each other, as if they had ignored her, he was even more angry in his heart.
But when it came time to serve the food, Ronghua seemed to be suddenly a little happier.
The queen's private cooking skills are very good, five dishes and one soup, all of them are delicacies, and the wine made from grapes in the queen's courtyard.
"Niangniang is really willing to entertain her courtiers with wine made from grapes in your courtyard." Bai Yulan said slowly.
The color of this wine is slightly darker, so I think it has been made for a long time.
"Mrs. Jing'an Hou is a first-class order, of course the palace must use some good ones." The queen said unconcernedly.
Since her mother's family is a big family, the Li family, these belongings outside her body are treated like dung.
"Thank you for your kindness." Bai Yulan smiled slightly.
That Ronghua was a little dissatisfied, she was already very arrogant in her heart, and now the queen seemed to treat Bai Yulan with blue eyes, so she was naturally dissatisfied in her heart.
She picked up the one in her hand and said to Bai Yulan: "It was this princess who was wrong before, so I temporarily paid for such a glass of wine to apologize." β
After Ronghua finished speaking, he drank it all.
Bai Yulan was also confused in her heart, there must be a demon when things go wrong, this Ronghua is not like someone who will apologize to others easily, especially if the object is her, she thought for a moment, glanced at the glass of wine in her hand, and took a sip.
At this time, Zhen'er, the maid beside the queen, was already waiting at the table, whispered a few words to the queen, and slowly retreated behind her.
Bai Yulan looked at this Ronghua and the queen in her heart, although she had doubts in her heart, she still slowly began to eat, and the queen did not have the possibility of directly drugging her in her palace, after all, she was a first-class lady.
She ate the cloth vegetables that the queen had put in her bowl and said with a smile: "Niangniang, this fish is really delicious......
Before she finished speaking, Ronghua's face suddenly turned a little ugly, her face turned blue, she covered her abdomen with one hand, and instantly pointed to the queen with the other, and said loudly: "Queen Mother, the son of the son trusts you so much, you actually poisoned the son of the minister!" β
The queen's face was cloudy, her eyebrows were deeply frowned, and she said sharply: "Quickly pass on the imperial doctor!" β
Although she was a little panicked, she didn't have any panic in dealing with this matter, which made Bai Yulan can't help but doubt her intentions.
After Ronghua fainted, he was carried to the queen's soft collapse, unconscious, the imperial doctor had come twice today, trembling and said: "Niangniang, this princess Ronghua is caused by poisoning, as for the poison, it is just a folk herb, used to fight poison with poison, but it is not violent, it can't hurt people's lives, but it looks very serious." β
The queen nodded and said, "The palace knows, you can step aside." β
"Yes."
"Madame, what is your discomfort now?" The queen's face was ugly, but she still tried her best to be gentle.
"No, I didn't."
"Come on, check all the wine of the three of us before, put away all these things, and this palace wants to see what the problem is, whether this palace deliberately poisoned people!" The queen commanded to go down.
The queen glanced at Bai Yulan, although she was a little suspicious of her before, but immediately dispelled this idea, after all, Bai Yulan was a village woman with a lot of foundations, if she really had the intention of harming people, she didn't help here.
The first thing she thought of was that this Ronghua wanted to harm others but hurt herself, and the daughter born to Concubine Lan was really the same as herself, cheap and vicious!
The fact really lived up to expectations, and the imperial doctor who went to investigate quickly reported the results of the test: "Niangniang, two of these three glasses of wine are poisonous, but the poison is different, except for the princess's poisoning, there is also a commonly used drug in the palace." β
"If Your Majesty asks tomorrow, you can just say that the princess is poisonous."
"The old minister knows."
The queen knew in her heart that she had drugged Bai Yulan's wine before, it was that kind of drug, she wanted the imperial doctor to diagnose it first, and then lied about the poisoning and planted it to Ronghua, but she didn't expect this Ronghua to be capable, so she changed the wine, but in the end, she was drugged in her own cup.
