Chapter Eighty-Five: The Scheming Behind the Scenes
Touching the pulse of the virtuous concubine, Zhang Youtao frowned and thought for a long time, then got up and went to the table on the side to pick up her prescription, pinched her wrist and checked the pulse, she slapped the table suddenly.
"I see, this guy is really bad." There was resentment in her tone, but her expression quickly changed, "But this medicinal effect is wonderful, why didn't I think of it?" ”
"What did you find?" Jiang Yiling asked as if puzzled.
"Yes, this poison in me can directly cause the Tibetan sea flower on the body of the virtuous concubine, although it will not be directly fatal, but it will be like Xiliang, unconscious, until she dies, the most terrible thing is that the poison on the virtuous concubine is more violent than Xiliang, and the effect of the poison will be more violent." Zhang Youtao said as she picked up the brush and wrote something.
"You go and call the emperor, just say that I have made a major discovery." She waved her hand at Jiang Yiling as she wrote.
Although he still had a lot of questions in his heart, seeing Zhang Youtao say this, he still chose to believe her.
"Miss Zhang, what are you going to say?" Concubine Xian asked a little puzzled.
"Said that person was scheming, let the emperor be careful." After writing what came to mind, Zhang Youtao put down the brush and walked to the side of the virtuous concubine.
Concubine Xian nodded thoughtfully, "It should be like this, but there must be some skill, let's ...... it like this."
The two muttered for a long time, and finally finalized the plan.
As soon as the emperor followed Jiang Yiling in, he saw Concubine Xian sitting in front of the bed wiping her tears, while Zhang Youtao also lowered her head in frustration.
"What's going on?" Looking at the scene, the emperor didn't care about the number of courtesies, and hurriedly went up to ask.
Zhang Youtao seemed to come back to her senses at this time, "I have seen the emperor, and the people's daughter is rude." ”
"Get down to business." The emperor seemed to be anxious to interrupt Zhang Youtao's words.
"Your Majesty, it's better for you to put your concubines in the cold palace." Concubine Xian sobbed and grabbed the emperor's arm.
"What is this talking about?" The emperor frowned and looked at the virtuous concubine.
"Your Majesty, that person is really too cunning, the folk girl was injured at that time, wasn't she poisoned? That poison is specifically designed to induce the poison of Tibetan sea flowers. Zhang Youtao slapped the table angrily, but she didn't want to use the injured hand, and suddenly jumped up with grinning.
But this appearance made the emperor feel the seriousness of the matter more truly, if the knife was stabbed in his body, wouldn't it be him who was lying there now?
"Fortunately, I moved quickly, so I fainted, if I stabbed you guys, I couldn't help it." Zhang Youtao stomped her foot as if she was resentful.
"Your Majesty, this person doesn't know how long the plan has been, the concubine is not afraid of a case, if you have a case, how can the concubine live?" The virtuous concubine seemed to finally couldn't bear it anymore, and cried in the emperor's arms.
The emperor patted Concubine Xian's back comfortingly, "Don't worry, I'll be fine, the person behind this is really vicious, this person will definitely be found out, don't worry, Concubine Ai, none of us will be fine." ”
"Yes, it will be fine, but the concubine feels that it seems that this matter has not been interrupted since the concubine was taken out, and this is to force the concubine back before she will give up." Concubine Xiangui shook her head as if she was broken, "Your Majesty, the concubine has always been looking forward to being by your side and watching Yiling grow up, but now it seems that the concubine can't." ”
"What nonsense, with me, no one can hurt you." This cry completely aroused the emperor's desire to protect, of course, the main reason was that he was worried that he would be killed by someone so unknowingly.
Zhang Youtao saw that it was almost over, and then muttered, "How can this be protected, this person always comes out like this unconsciously, even if I have an antidote, I can't follow you anytime and anywhere." ”
"I am the Son of Heaven, as long as I think, no one can come close to me, and from today onwards, you will all have the strictest protection." The emperor directly made a guarantee.
Zhang Youtao still had a skeptical expression on her face, but she was happy in her heart, and she really came according to the words of the virtuous concubine.
After the emperor left, Jiang Yiling entered the tent, "How is it?" ”
"The emperor said that in the future, he will arrange someone to protect us and protect us closely, which means that the person in the shadows may not have a chance to do it again." Zhang Youtao spun around with some excitement.
"But this is only temporary safety, if that person continues to do it, it is an adventure, and if it lurks, it means that we will continue to live in a dangerous environment." Concubine Xian calmly analyzed.
Jiang Yiling sneered at this time, "Lonely's mother concubine, it turns out that she is so calculating. ”
Then why didn't he even look at him once, why was he still indifferent knowing his situation, Jiang Yiling began to think about it uncontrollably.
"Yiling, if I didn't have this thought, it would be impossible for me to get out of that confined palace." As if she knew what he was thinking, Concubine Xian shook her head with a wry smile.
"Okay, let's not explain, let's get down to business." Jiang Yiling waved his hand, he didn't want to continue listening to her at all, this contradictory and awkward personality was really helpless. 400
Seeing that the two of them were about to have a conflict again, Zhang Youtao pondered for a moment and hurriedly said, "That, if someone starts again, what should we do?" I don't even know who the other party is now. ”
She selectively concealed that Concubine Xian might know about the person behind her, but she was afraid that these two people would confront each other again because of this, and it would be too difficult for her.
"I probably know who it is." Jiang Yiling took a deep breath and said.
Zhang Youtao blinked a little confused, "Who is it?" ”
"I can't tell you just yet, I'll talk about it when I'm sure." Jiang Yiling frowned and did not directly say the guess in his heart.
"No, how are you mother and son the same?" Zhang Youtao glared at Jiang Yiling a little speechlessly, and when she saw his puzzled expression, she hurriedly continued, "Why do you like to say half and leave half?" What are your habits? ”
"Really?" Jiang Yiling raised his eyebrows slightly, "I just think that saying it won't help you." ”
"How could it not be helpful, you said at least let me know who to guard against, this doesn't mean I'm confused." Zhang Youtao seemed to glance at the mother and son helplessly, "Forget it, you can talk about it or not." ”
With that, she turned around and continued to study her prescription, and without her adjustment, the room fell into an eerie silence.
The three of them took it for granted that after this time, they could spend a few days quietly, but they didn't want to get dark before the news of the emperor's assassination came.
There were only Zhang Youtao and Xian Guifei in the tent on this matter, and after hearing the news from Qingcha, the two were instantly stunned.
It was still the virtuous concubine who came back to her senses first, "Qingcha, serve the palace to change clothes." ”
"Are you like this now?" Zhang Youtao stepped forward in a little panic and grabbed the arm of the virtuous concubine.
"At a time like this, I have to pass." Concubine Xian squeezed her arm hard, Zhang Youtao immediately reacted, although she was still a little worried in her heart, but she still cooperated with Qingcha to serve Concubine Xian and get up.
When the three of them hurried over, the emperor's residence was already full of people.
"Concubine Xian is actually here, doesn't it mean that the poisoning can't get up?" The imperial concubine sneered at the virtuous concubine.
Concubine Xian didn't look at her at all, and rushed over to her father-in-law who was guarding the door, "Father-in-law Gao, how is the emperor?" Yes? ”
She spoke with a trilling tone and fear between her brows.
The imperial concubine on the side rolled her eyes as if she was disdainful, "How can there be anything wrong with the emperor, don't be in this crow's mouth, Gonggong Gao, I bother you to spread it again, this palace is really worried." ”
"Ladies and gentlemen, the emperor ordered, no one is allowed to enter, it's not a slave who won't pass it on to you, I really don't dare." Gao Gonggong cried with a sad face.
At this time, the curtain of the tent was lifted, and Jiang Yiling walked out of it, "Father let Concubine Xian and Zhang Youtao in, Imperial Concubine, please go back first, Father said, you will come back tomorrow." ”
The imperial concubine glared at the virtuous concubine unwillingly, and reluctantly turned around and left here.
Concubine Xian rushed in strode in as soon as Jiang Yiling's words fell, Zhang Youtao and Jiang Yiling glanced at each other, and the two walked in quickly.
At this time, the virtuous concubine was lying on the emperor's bed crying and was sad, the emperor didn't seem to have any big problems, and was in the mood to smile and comfort people, "Don't cry, the children are all in." ”
Concubine Xian seemed embarrassed not to look away, "The concubine didn't cry." ”
After Zhang Youtao and Jiang Yiling saluted respectfully, Zhang Youtao took a step forward, "Your Majesty, let the people's daughter give you a pulse." ”
"Well, it's not a big deal, it's just two assassins, they've all been caught, and I'm not hurt." That being said, but the emperor cooperated and stretched out his hand, after all, he was still afraid of death.
Zhang Youtao carefully checked him and made sure that there was no problem, so he breathed a sigh of relief, no one is afraid of accidents, I am afraid that there is a problem with this emperor, and she has a hundred heads that are not enough to cut off.
"Your Majesty, there is no problem at present, and the residual poison in your body is almost clear, but you still need to recuperate carefully, this Tibetan sea flower is different from other poisons, it has a medicinal lead, I am afraid that you will encounter irrelevant things during this period......" Zhang Youtao frowned worriedly.
The emperor said with a gloomy face, "This person must be found out as soon as possible." ”
"Father, the son thinks that the Shen Criminal Department should be fully responsible for this matter, and if necessary, he can even let the Criminal Department intervene to poison the harem concubines, and even endanger your safety, this person has intentions, and it is really vicious." Jiang Yiling knelt in front of the emperor and said angrily.
The emperor nodded thoughtfully, "Come on, spread my will, investigate this matter with the Criminal Division, I will give them seven days, if they can't catch someone, let them come and see them." ”
