Chapter Eighty-Eight: Night Whispering in Two Places
The son of Prince Gong's family.
No wonder......
Bai Ling lowered his eyes slightly.
Prince Gong's name was not well-known in the Great Zhou, although he was the only adult son of Emperor Jianxi, he was not established as a prince for a long time. It is rumored that this prince himself has an extremely introverted personality, although he has a reputation for being honest and elegant outside, but he is disliked by Emperor Jianxi because of his cringe.
"I heard that although the emperor doesn't like Prince Gong, he values this prince very much?" Bai Ling asked with some uncertainty, "Really?" β
"Hmm." Wei Fourteen nodded, "The prince is the bargaining chip of Prince Gong's faction. β
Although he had long heard of Emperor Jianxi's behavior of seeing his grandson and not seeing his son, he was still a little surprised to hear this sentence. I knew that the emperor liked Prince Gong's son, but I didn't expect to like it so much.
"What about the second thing, what?" Wei Fourteen asked.
Bai Ling withdrew from his contemplation and said in a low voice, "There is a person, I always feel a little concerned, I wonder if Fourteen has time, go and help me find out her bottom." β
Wei Shishi's eyes became serious for a moment, "Who?" β
"That's it...... The Lin Jieyu of Chuxiu Palace. Bai Ling said softly.
"She?" Wei Shixi read softly, and then quickly replied, "She may not have anything to check on. β
"Why?"
"Because of this person's background, it's very simple." Wei Shixi said softly, "It's just a servant from the Sect Division, who was fortunate to be visited by the emperor by chance, and that's it." β
Bai Ling was a little surprised, "Isn't there anything else?" β
"With her background, it is impossible for her to have anything else in the harem and the previous dynasty." Wei XIV replied calmly, "What do you want to check on her?" β
Wei Fourteen was a little bit, and Bai Ling suddenly reacted.
Yes, that's the Church Divisionβhow many sinners' wives have been involved in it, and their offspring have been born and raised in their own right, as slaves and servants.
Now that she has entered the harem, I am afraid that there are 10,000 pairs of eyes staring at ......
A flash of light flashed in Bai Ling's mind, "Then why doesn't anyone scold her for being unworthy?" β
The concubine was drowned by the spitting star as soon as she sought death, so no one cares about her rising to the top with duckweed?
"Yes, but not much." Wei Shishi's eyes were slightly deeper, "She neither forms a party nor clings to her, and she hardly sees anyone except for the emperor and a few palace people around the emperor on weekdays." β
"It's really interesting." Bai Ling muttered as if talking to herself, and then raised her head and said seriously, "I just want to find out, since she is neither a party nor an attachment, how did she get to where she is today." 14. Help me to find out the traces of her life in the Workshop Division, and see if there is anything interesting. β
"Okay." Wei Shixi nodded, "Why did you suddenly notice this person?" β
Bai Ling thought seriously for a while before replying, "I can't tell, it's just ...... A gut feeling. β
Wei Shixi smiled and didn't ask more.
He raised his hand and straightened his hat, and the two waved goodbye. Bai Ling watched him disappear into the night and stood in front of the window for a long time, before turning around, taking the velvet and lighting the lamp, and the whole room was lit up for a while.
She went out to ask a few palace people for hot water, and after some washing, she finally lay down on the bed and rested.
It's just that there are a lot of things in my mind at the moment, and I don't feel sleepy for a while.
Speaking of which, Bai Ling has always felt that intuition is such a thing, and sometimes it can be left unchecked; But at some point, it will be more credible than logic itself.
Because people will inevitably miss some details of information, but those clues that happened but were not noticed by themselves still exist in people's subconscious, occasionally in the form of intuition-
You can't tell why, but your instinct has told you that something isn't quite right.
And now, Lin Jieyu is such an existence.
As for whether this intuition is accurate or not, we should know when Fourteen makes the next appearance.
Bai Ling turned over and looked at the robot cat sent by Bai Yi.
She brought the robot cat to her side and stared silently.
This made her stretch her frown, but she also let out a long, unconscious sigh.
β¦β¦
"We must not let them continue to send medicine to Xianfu Palace!"
In the courtyard of Bai's house, Bai Yi's words were loud.
Bai Yi frowned, "I really can't figure it out, what was the 'Children's Supreme Treasure Pill' first, and now what is the 'teething powder', why do they like to use mercury on their children so much?" β
There was an occasional insect chirping outside the window, Bai Shijun sat solemnly at the table in his living room, the flickering candle flame reflected in his and Bai Yi's eyes, like four burning torches.
"Whether what you say is true or not, this matter involves the imperial heir, and we still have to think about it in the long run." Bai Shijun said, "Now after all, it is to relieve the discomfort of the little prince's teething, and the hospital is too much-"
"There's really no way to think about it in the long run." Bai Yi directly interrupted his father's words, he stood up, his expression was extremely serious, "I found out when I went to Xianfu Palace last time that the little prince already had a slight mercury poisoning. He was too young to resist this dose of heavy metals. If you eat it again, don't say whether the little prince has a good brain when he grows up, and whether he can live past his first birthday is a question...... I'm not alarmist! β
"After all, tooth powder is a common medicine among the people......" Bai Shijun was a little helpless, and his voice was a little hard, "You suddenly stood up and said, this thing is useless, no one will believe you!" β
"Dad, think about it, can the folk medicine be the same as the palace medicine?" Bai Yi frowned, "As for the teething powder sold on the street outside, a few pennies is a big bag, and it's strange that there can be genuine mercury in it." β
Bai Shijun fell into a huge hesitation.
Indeed, as Bai Yi said, the medicine in the palace is different.
Not to mention that the medicines in the palace are all genuine, and the dosage is all for you.
Bai Yi's set of words, although unheard of, but after listening carefully, the logic is also self-consistent. I don't know where he heard this, but if it's true......
Seeing that Bai Shijun still seemed to be a little undecided, Bai Yi took a few steps closer, "Dad, I told you before, it is very exhausting to take care of infants and young children under the age of one. All the drugs that can calm a crying child immediately are effective in the form of poisoning.
"When these children die, no one will think of their death as a deadly soothing, they will only remember that the child has not been worrying since birth, and that he is weak and sick!
"Dad, think about Bai Ling again, think about her now being alone in the Chengqian Palace. The little prince is the son of the concubine, if something really happens to him, what will be the situation of the concubine, and what will Bai Ling be like at that time? Can we afford to take this risk? β
Bai Shijun took a deep breath, and after a long time, he finally said in a deep voice, "...... I'll go to the palace tomorrow. β
"No, let's go into the palace together."
"Don't mess around!" Bai Shijun looked at Bai Yi worriedly, "Just let your father fight with the imperial doctor, don't get involved!" In case it angers Concubine Ningβ"
Bai Yi shook his head, "If this matter is to be fought for, we will not fight with Wang Ji." You can buy me half a day, and the rest ...... Leave it to me. β
