Chapter 16: The Hand Stretched Out in the Palace
She was so surprised that she felt like a thunderbolt exploded overhead, and she couldn't believe her eyes, and they stuck in place like half a piece of wood.
Is there still a girl with sheng in her name in the capital?
It can't be such a coincidence, right?
No, no, it's too dangerous to hang this strip of cloth here!
She is a person who wants to enter the palace as a concubine, and after entering the palace, she can make a great future, and she can't be caught by others!
If she continues to hang here and is peeked at by someone with a heart or picked up by the wind, it is rumored that she has anything to do with her imperial uncle, is this a crime of killing your head!?
She is young, there are so many things to do, and so much money to make, she can't die in ancient times without knowing it!
He Jiusheng rolled up the red cloth strips and stuffed them into his pocket in fear, and left the Yuelao Temple in a hurry.
This night, He Jiusheng lay on the bed and tossed and turned all night, and he couldn't figure out whether the word "Sheng" on the red cloth strip was himself.
In the past, people often saw each other in their dreams, and God knew that I remembered Shaoyan. Fireflies are in the Qiangwu moon in the sky, how can fireflies fly to the side of the moon wheel.
This poem can be seen by fools to express his lovesickness for his sweetheart, but this love seems to be far away, so that he has nowhere to find.
There is no official lady with "Sheng" in her name in the capital, is the person he likes a commoner, or is she?
and she will be Concubine Chen soon, although she also wanted to live the kind of life of a couple in ancient times, but the actual situation does not allow it.
He Jiusheng even began to regret a little, why didn't she directly raise objections when the Queen Mother said that she was going to marry her?
Now that she is getting along, her mind seems to have been half taken away by Song Yanjiao.
I don't think I'm in love with him, right?
"No, no, no!"
"No way, no way!"
She clutched the quilt and shook her head.
Late at night.
In the palace of the Queen Mother.
"Jackal Lu inquired that the third prince got the poison prescription from the cronies who were planted in Hefu, and after confirming the details of the dispensing at the pharmacy, he handed the poison prescription to Li Changshao, the imperial doctor in the palace, and asked him to prepare the antidote."
"The slave and maid have arranged for someone to inquire again, and this poison is not a big deal, but it is just a temporary sore, and the sores look terrible, and they will not damage the roots. Even if you don't apply the antidote, you can be cured in a year, and it seems that Miss Sheng'er should have made it herself. ”
"Well...... the queen mother held her forehead and said without raising her eyes, "Although the niece and granddaughter of the mourning family is weak, she has a seven-trick heart, and she seems to be a person who can do this." ”
"But Yan Frame, the mourning family can't understand it, what does he think in his heart? The wind was released to the mourning family to say that Sheng'er's illness seemed to be cured, but the He family suppressed it, saying that Sheng'er seemed to have been poisoned by the concubines in the He mansion and disfigured. ”
"Qiu Cui, you say, is Yan Frame really just pity for Sheng'er?"
"The mourning family is afraid, when the wrong moon is old, the wrong red line......"
He Jiusheng was having lunch in the room this day, and the next person came to report that Xie Jinshuang, the young lady of the Xie family, was here, and as soon as the next person finished the report, Xie Jinshuang entered the room in a hurry, and shouted with a smile, "My sister's wedding is coming, I will come to see you as soon as possible, otherwise when you enter the palace, our sisters don't know when we will be able to meet!" ”
As she spoke, dozens of slaves followed her walked in one after another, stacked large and small parcels and brocade boxes in their hands.
He Jiusheng stuck half a chicken leg in his mouth, and looked at Xie Jinshuang blankly, and these people put things in the room one by one.
"Sister, you're really rich......"
She was stunned by this big deal, "Even the emperor didn't bring so many things when he came up......"
"My sister laughed, the emperor's big head is still behind, and there will definitely be a reward when you enter the palace. I put these at home, and I picked out some things that suited you and brought them over, and I will use them everywhere in the palace in the future, and I need to prepare more! What's more, these things are placed in my prime minister's mansion, and if I don't use them, someone will use them for me. ”
He Jiusheng thought that she was probably referring to the wives and concubines accepted by the prime minister, and after she met Xie Jinshuang earlier, she also inquired with Jing's mother, saying that this prime minister was romantic, raised dozens of concubines at home, gave birth to a bunch of men and women, and raised them at home, which was even more lively than the emperor's harem every day.
And Xie Jinshuang hated these wives and concubines even more, and never gave them any good looks. Even so, Xie Jinshuang is the prime minister's daughter-in-law, she is gentle and lovely, and the prime minister also regards her as the pearl of her palm.
"Then I'll thank my sister for her kindness!" He Jiusheng felt that although this Xie Jinshuang had a deep distinction between respect and inferiority, it was not bad for her, and it was also a good choice to make such a powerful and rich sister in ancient times.
"Well, no." He Jiusheng's lower abdomen tightened for no reason, and she smiled awkwardly, "Sister Jinshuang, I'll miss ...... first"
After saying that, he ran out holding his stomach.
This time, most of the day was spent in the latrine, and I kept vomiting and diarrhea until the night, and my head was dizzy for a while, and finally I fainted on the ground.
When she woke up, it was late, Xie Jinshuang was very friendly, did not leave first, stayed to take care of her for a long time, and sent her personal aunt, who was proficient in pharmacology, to check her pulse, but her aunt said that she was poisoned, and after the palace imperial doctor came, it was no different from what her personal aunt said.
Only then did they remember that there might be something wrong with the noon meal, but it was too late, and after He Jiusheng finished eating, the kitchen sent someone to pour all the food and mix it in a swill bucket, and it was difficult to verify.
"Wechen's master has been for Miss in the Queen Mother's Palace, and before leaving the palace today, the master has shown Wechen Miss's old calendar, which records that Miss has had the experience of being poisoned. In Weichen's opinion, the poison used by the person who poisoned this time was lethal, probably because the young lady did not eat much, and she had a toxin resistance in her body, so she did not let anyone with a heart succeed. ”
"Li Changshao, can you diagnose what kind of poison this is?" Xie Jinshuang asked on the side.
"Weichen can't diagnose it." There were some imperceptible changes in the face of this imperial doctor named Li Changshao, although it was fleeting, but it was still seen by Xie Jinshuang and He Jiusheng.
"Is it true that you can't diagnose it, or do you not want to diagnose it?" Xie Jinshuang asked.
"Weichen will open a prescription for recuperation, Miss is about to enter the palace as a concubine, and in the future, before eating, you need to develop the habit of trying dishes with silver needles every day, so as not to let those who have a heart succeed!"
"Okay, okay, your imperial doctor is strict-mouthed, and you can't ask anything, you write a prescription and go back."
He Jiusheng looked at the imperial doctor and raised his head, he looked like he had clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, not only white and clean, but also very young, as if he noticed that someone was looking at him, he met He Jiusheng's gaze, but after a moment, he lowered his head and packed up the medicine box and followed the next person out.
"Sister, who do you think will poison you?" Xie Jinshuang held her hand, approached her and asked quietly.
"Could it be that Zhao Qinglan was kicked by me to seek revenge?"
"She's an aunt, no matter how bold she is, she can't control coming here, who does my sister think wants you to enter the palace now?"
"Look at the way you look and have the answer?"
"I think it's the people in the palace, and the imperial doctor also instructed you to use a silver needle to try the dishes before eating in the future, listen to him, and be extra careful when entering the palace in the future, the implication is that the poison is from the people in the palace, and I think it's the Queen of Qin."
"Why do you think it's her? I don't know this Empress Qin! ”
"Sister, you think, the imperial doctor just came out with what kind of poison it was, but he refused to say anything about it, which means that this is a very powerful person who can do it, and the family still needs to have an iron relationship to reach out to Brother Yanjiao's Zhuangzi outside the palace. Now that you have entered the palace, you are going to be named Concubine Chen, and your status is below the queen and the concubine, but the position of the concubine has been vacant, and after you enter the palace, you will pose such a big threat to her, she might as well attack you outside first! ”
He Jiusheng began to admire Xie Jinshuang, she didn't know anything about things in the palace, but she could quickly analyze it.
In fact, just looking at the expression of the imperial doctor, she also knew that it was a person who could not say that he wanted to poison her, Zhao Qinglan had that idea but didn't have the courage to provoke her anymore, the only possibility was the person in the deep palace she was about to step into.
"Empress Qin is the daughter of the official book, sister, you must be careful of this woman after you enter the palace, your father's official position is under her father, and you can't go against her, the emperor loves you, you have to show your skills as a woman, and use the emperor's hand to deal with this ......woman."
Xie Jinshuang explained to her word by word the matters after entering the palace, sometimes her eyes flashed with wisdom, and sometimes revealed some ruthlessness, which made He Jiusheng can't help but sigh, fortunately she met her own sister, if Xie Jinshuang becomes her enemy one day, it is really a ruthless character who is difficult to deal with.
