Chapter 188 - Finding the Cause
"What? Lee Seung-yin was released? Qi Rumeng asked coldly.
"Yes, I just got it back today."
"Do you know where it came from?" Qi Rumeng looked at the woman in front of him coldly and asked.
"I don't know. Does the leader of the alliance return to the master? ”
"No need, the master has been in a bad mood recently, so there is no need to say this. You go down first. Qi Rumeng waved his hand. Li Chengyin is just a clown who jumps off the beam, I'm afraid he can't find anything, not to mention that in order to survive, he should also know what he can't say. Since he can come out alive, he will be fine, let him live for two more days.
Ning Chu is right, the most important thing for the master during this period of time is whether Ruhan's Gu is effective, and I am afraid that I don't have the heart to pay attention to the rest.
And the person Bai Guifei cares about the most is facing new dangers.
"What? Meat slicing? The Queen Mother was shocked when she heard this, staring at the three of them as if she wanted the three of them to give a reasonable explanation.
The eldest princess stepped forward and whispered comfortingly: "Don't worry, the queen mother, please tell the three of you in detail." ”
Doctor Lu looked at the two of them and stepped forward and said, "The two Tai Yi Yao Yao stabilized the condition before, and they should also consider the possibility of Gu poison." ”
"Gu?" The Queen Mother was stunned for a moment, frowned and asked. This Gu is not a common thing in the Central Plains, and it is really terrible to appear in the palace now, not to mention that the Queen Mother has heard that this Gu poison is so powerful that it kills people invisibly, how can she not be afraid.
"Exactly, Wei Chen observed that the emperor's face was as usual, his pulse was strange, and he couldn't wake up, which was quite similar to Zhong Gu, but Wei Chen didn't have any experience in Gu poison, so he didn't dare to conclude." Doctor Cao stepped forward and explained, "Yesterday, the three of us discussed the emperor's condition, and we all have this understanding, Doctor Lu is familiar with Gu poison, and the old man thinks that there should be no mistake. ”
"Fortunately, the two Tai Yi medicine stabilized the Gu poison, and yesterday they activated it with medicine, and they saw that there was a bulge on the emperor's right chest, which should be Gu poison." Dr. Lu added.
"Then you can kill it with medicine, why do you want to rip the flesh for Gu?" The eldest princess asked with a frown.
"Although the grass people are familiar with Gu poison, they have never seen this poisonous weed people, and they don't know what medicine to use, the best way is to take out this Gu before it enters the heart and lungs, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable." Doctor Lu said in a deep voice.
"There is no other way?" The eldest princess asked worriedly.
"Your Royal Highness the eldest princess, this is the best way." Imperial Physician Chu spoke up.
The Queen Mother looked at Shangguan Yu on the bed, thought for a moment and said, "Quasi"
"Empress Dowager Xie"
"An'er helps the mourning family out." The Queen Mother said in a low voice, with a hint of fatigue in her tone, the soldiers are dangerous, and she naturally knows the danger, but what else can she do now, she can't watch the Gu poison enter Yu'er's heart and lungs, so how can she face the entrustment of the emperor and the ancestors.
"The queen mother can rest assured, the three imperial doctors are all skillful, and their medical skills are superb, and they will definitely be fine." The eldest princess comforted softly, but the trills in her tone revealed that she was not any easier than the queen mother.
The inner room gradually became busy, and Father-in-law Xia commanded to carry hot water back and forth, and the gauze was also changed. The Queen Mother didn't dare to look at the basin of blood, and the armor in her hand sank into the palm of her hand, pinching out blood marks.
An hour seemed to have passed for several years, and finally the door of the inner room opened, and the queen mother was slowly helped up by the eldest princess, inhaling deeply and adjusting her breathing. The inner chamber was enveloped by the smell of wormwood, but it still couldn't hide the smell of blood in the room.
The Queen Mother said in a deep voice: "Doctor Lu, Imperial Physician Chu, Imperial Physician Cao, how is it?" ”
"The Queen Mother Gu worm has been taken out, but the emperor has lost a lot of blood, and I'm afraid I won't be able to wake up for a while." Dr. Lu replied with a smile.
"So the royal brother is safe." The eldest princess breathed a sigh of relief slightly.
"Well, the emperor has always been in good health, take medicine on time and recuperate, and he will wake up in a few days." Imperial Physician Chu said in a deep voice. "It's just that the emperor has lost a lot of blood this time, and he needs to serve carefully."
"Well, Queen Mother, you still need to be careful in the harem, so I'll guard it." The eldest princess looked at the Queen Mother and said.
"The emperor has been poisoned this time, there must be ghosts in the harem, and the mourning family can't be spared, go and find out which palace the emperor rested in the past few days before he fell asleep." The Queen Mother said angrily.
"The queen mother is angry, I'm afraid this kind of approach is not good, and I ask the queen mother to wait a few days, and it's not too late to think of countermeasures when the royal brother wakes up." The eldest princess said softly.
"The old minister seconded the proposal." Imperial Physician Chu said supportively.
The Queen Mother looked at everyone, nodded and said, "What An'er said is not unreasonable, so I will discuss it when the emperor wakes up." ”
"The queen mother has also been tired for the past two days, so let's go back to the palace to rest first." The eldest princess said softly, looking at the shadow under the queen mother's eyes a little unbearable.
"Yes, if the eldest princess is here, the Queen Mother will go back to rest, and issue an edict." Aunt Lanzhi comforted softly, the Queen Mother has slept really badly these days, and it is not good to rest, Lanzhi is really worried about whether the Queen Mother will also fall.
"Okay, An'er work hard," the Queen Mother patted the eldest princess's hand.
"The queen mother is serious, and I congratulate the queen mother." The eldest princess is blessed.
Watching the Queen Mother leave, the eldest princess turned around and asked, "Three Imperial Doctors, do you know what kind of Gu worm it is?" ”
Doctor Lu shook his head and said, "The old man has never seen such a Gu worm, it's really strange. ”
"I haven't seen this Gu worm in books, it seems that someone deliberately cultivated it." Imperial Physician Cao added.
"What about the royal brother now?" The eldest princess asked with a frown.
"It should be fine, Lao Chen will prescribe medicine first, but this medicinal material?" Imperial Physician Chu asked.
"Leave it to the old slave, it's convenient to be in charge of the internal affairs office for so many years." Grandpa Xia said with a smile.
"Then I'll bother Father-in-law Xia, and I still ask you to keep today's affairs secret, and make a decision when the imperial brother wakes up." The eldest princess whispered.
-Jiaofang Palace-
"Bang!"
"The Queen Mother ordered that everyone should not wait to enter the Heart Cultivation Palace?" Bai Guifei's right hand slammed on the table, and the armor on her hand slammed into the table with a loud noise, but none of this could calm her anger. Ruhan once told him to appear by Shangguan Yu's side often, so that Gu worms can remember their voices, but now it's okay, they can't even get close to the emperor's body, and what else do they say to remember their voices!
"The Concubine's Anger"
"Mother, this is a little strange." Ning Chu said: "Isn't the Queen Mother suspicious of the harem?" ”
"Suspicious? If this palace was too lazy to care about her at other times, what else would she do, but now, this palace doesn't allow it. Chuan Li Zhaoyi came. Bai Guifei said angrily.
"Yes, sissy." Ning Chu saw that Bai Guifei was not carried away by anger, and his heart was slightly relieved, and he ordered the palace maid beside him to give the order. This Li Zhaoyi takes herself very seriously every day, and she is also the most arrogant, and she makes the Queen Mother angry a lot on weekdays, and it is also appropriate to be a gun messenger now.
"Li Zhaoyi has also been proud recently, and she is good at sharpening her temperament." Bai Guifei said coldly, her anger and dissatisfaction were all revealed in that tone.
"What Niangniang said is, I'm afraid Li Zhaoyi thinks that this throne belongs to her son." Ning Chu said coldly.
"She's pretty good at it." Bai Guifei lowered her eyebrows and straightened the armor on her hand, the filigree and flowered armor reflected the beauty's face with a hint of cold beauty.
"Today, I can let Li Zhaoyi know that I know how powerful." Ning Chu said with a smile.
"The queen mother has been in the harem for many years, she can be described as a treacherous and cunning, and she is the emperor's own mother, the emperor is respectful and good, Li Zhaoyi's endearing temperament is really rare, and the queen mother will definitely appease her." Bai Guifei said with a sneer.
The Queen Mother has been in the harem for so long, not punishing Li Zhaoyi is just disdainful, Li Zhaoyi is just a concubine, and the Queen Mother is the emperor's own mother, the emperor loves her well, how can she care about Li Zhaoyi. It's not that she won't be punished, but she is too lazy to take care of it, but Li Zhaoyi doesn't understand this truth, so let her find the Queen Mother's bad luck, and then let the Queen Mother educate and educate well. No matter how boring this harem is, it's time to be lively and dissipate the sullenness of the past few days.
-Changchun Hall-
"Bai Guifei looking for me? Hmph, that woman doesn't know what to do, she looks like she's on top all day long, and she is vicious in her bones, don't go! Li Zhaoyi said with a slight cold, she was stunned when she thought of the blurred flesh and blood, she admitted that she was really afraid of this white concubine, this woman has a hundred ways to make herself disappear, she can't afford to provoke her, can't she hide by herself?
"Niangniang, isn't it the matter that the concubine Niangniang is looking for Mo at this moment?" Eberth asked, thoughtfully.
"What can happen, the queen mother has ordered that the harem is not allowed to serve the sick, what else can I do, the opportunity to behave in front of the emperor and the queen mother is gone, and now I think of other ways." Li Zhaoyi said coldly, "No, how can this queen mother say that if she doesn't let the sick wait, she will be sick, and she will leave the eldest princess to serve the sick, there must be ghosts among them!" ”
"Why don't you go to the Queen Mother's to find out?" Yibai asked in a low voice.
"Probe the wind? Can the old fox of the Queen Mother say? But it should also be noisy, otherwise the queen mother will die in front of the harem, and there will only be one eldest princess who will marry. Li Zhaoyi said angrily: "The eldest princess has been married for so long, and she still stays in the palace all day!" ”
"That's it, this married daughter is the water that is spilled, how can there be a reason to go back to her parents' house casually, even if it is a princess, it shouldn't be!" Yi Bai echoed the road.
"That is, the eldest princess made a love affair and gave marriage, and her son and daughter did not study well, and the words of the matchmaker of her parents should be ignored?" Li Zhaoyi said fiercely, not remembering that Concubine Chu was also her own son, and she made a big joke.
"Yes, it's all because the eldest prince is not strict in teaching." Yibai frowned and rubbed Li Zhaoyi's shoulders and said, "The Queen Mother is also in charge." ”
"Hmph, in the eyes of the Queen Mother, her daughter, grandson, and granddaughter are precious. No, the palace is going to the Queen Mother to let the Queen Mother make it clear, she will be the Queen Mother in the future, so foolish. Li Zhaoyi said arrogantly. With unrealistic fantasies, Mo'er may also ascend to the golden throne.
The more Li Zhaoyi thought about it, the more uncomfortable she became, so she asked Yibai to accompany her from the side door to the Queen Mother's Cining Palace. But where can these be hidden from Bai Guifei's eyeliner, and the people who met him saw that they were almost there, so they went back to the Jiaofang Palace, no longer wasting time.
"Oh? Went on your own? Bai Guifei raised her eyebrows and asked.
"Exactly, the slave maid watched Li Zhaoyi go in the direction of Cining Palace, and then checked with the palace maid outside Cining Palace, but she went in." The palace maid said in a low voice.
Bai Guifei smiled coldly: "It's not bothersome, I'll go by myself, okay, and wait." ”
Sure enough, after a while, the queen mother's decree came, Li Zhaoyi disrespected the queen mother, disregarded the courtesy of humility, disobeyed the queen mother's decree, the crime was unforgivable, and the emperor was seriously ill and not healed, so it was not appropriate to punish him heavily, and he was grounded until the day of repentance.
Bai Guifei looked at the edict sent by her, and the corners of her mouth raised, does the queen mother want to accumulate virtue for the emperor? Grounded until the day of repentance, hmph, I'm afraid this Li Zhaoyi will not be allowed to appear in front of the emperor in the future, but also tighten, the emperor will only be me alone in his heart.
"Go and Ruhan to determine the time of awakening, there must be no mistake." Bai Guifei said coldly.
"Yes, don't worry."
