Chapter 117: Scheming
The queen explained softly: "There is something wrong with the ginseng soup that the imperial concubine ate, so please ask Imperial Doctor Lin to come and take a look......" She explained the situation roughly, only hiding the consequences that Sizhen said that taking it for a long time will lead to stunted fetal growth or premature death.
After all, I don't know what the situation is, there is still some time for the production of dark cloud beads, and if the emperor has a preconceived idea, it is inevitable that he will not like the child a little.
Although the queen doesn't like Wuyunzhu, she thinks that the adult's fault is wrong and calculates that the child's head is out of virtue, so she conceals it intentionally or unintentionally. If she doesn't say it, others won't say it in front of the dark clouds.
Although the relationship between the emperor and the queen is cold, but in the harem, between the concubines, especially for a new person like her, there is a lot of jealousy and resentment, and there needs to be such a middle palace impartial.
She cast a grateful look at the queen.
"Imperial Doctor Lin, quickly check if there is any problem with this cup of ginseng soup." After Fu Lin finished speaking, he glanced left and right, and there was a faint gloomy look between his eyebrows: "Don't let me find out, this matter has something to do with the people among you, otherwise, I will not spare it." ”
Without saying anything else, he walked up to Wuyunzhu, held her hand, and reassured: "Don't worry, I will definitely make the decision for you, and I must find out the treacherous villain." ”
Imperial Doctor Lin checked the results, and sure enough, as Sizhen said, the ginseng soup was filled with Pinger ginseng.
Imperial Doctor Lin wiped a handful of sweat and said: "The minister only knows that Ping'er ginseng is non-toxic and beneficial to people's health, as for the disadvantages, it is indeed like Zhen Gege said, if there is phlegm in the spleen and stomach, or if there is cold and dampness, it will make people feel edema, but I don't know that it will aggravate the edema of pregnant women, and I have to consult with other colleagues in the hospital." ”
Fu Lin snorted coldly: "Go quickly, if you don't know anything about this, I think your hospital should also be clear." ”
The Imperial Doctor broke out in a cold sweat.
Wuyunzhu held his hand and helped the imperial doctor speak: "Your Majesty, it is not surprising that Imperial Doctor Lin doesn't know about this thing, if it weren't for the fact that Zhen Gege's mother was killed by this thing when she was pregnant, who would have thought that Ping'er ginseng, which was originally a good medicine, would become a chronic poison?" According to the concubines, Imperial Doctor Lin knows what he knows, and he doesn't know what he doesn't know, but he is a sincere person. ”
Fu Lin's face softened a little, and he instructed Imperial Doctor Lin: "In this case, you should consult with all the imperial doctors in the Tai Hospital as soon as possible, and find out how to make up for the harm of this Pinger ginseng to pregnant women." ”
After Imperial Physician Lin apologized, he left in a hurry.
Fu Lin helped Wuyunzhu and didn't say more, and left with his sleeves brushed up, only saying that he would let the queen go to the apse together to discuss the rectification of the harem.
The queen hurriedly followed.
After they left, Concubine Duanshun sat on the chair, took two sips of tea slowly, sighed softly and said: "Since the imperial concubine entered the palace, the emperor has not treated us coldly for a day or two, and now even the queen has to follow her, and she is not afraid of losing her life." But we're used to it, who calls people a favorite concubine! It's a very troublesome matter today, it has nothing to do with us, and we all have to be checked, which is really unlucky! ”
"Fortunately, Ah Zhen, you found out in time, otherwise when it starts in the future, maybe the consequences will be serious, and then the Son of Heaven will be angry, I am afraid that there will be a river of blood. Hey, this is still in the stomach to make people so uncomfortable, if there is a mistake in birth, we don't know how much to do with it! ”
"Niangniang, I'm not afraid of crooked shadows, if I'm afraid, it should be the person who did this to be afraid, what are we worried about?"
Although this matter has nothing to do with Sizhen, but she used us, Concubine Duanshun felt that she was on her side, she nodded yes, and while drinking tea, she looked at everyone lightly, wanting to see what was going on.
Concubine Gongjing was a picture of quietly watching the changes, waiting to see a good show, Concubine Jing looked calm, as if she had never listened to half a sentence of everything that happened just now, no matter what happened, it was irrelevant, Concubine Zhen lowered her head thoughtfully, Concubine Kang hugged Xuan Ye and comforted, and the mother and son whispered...... Concubine Yang Shu and the others also had different faces, and from their expressions, they couldn't tell whose handiwork it was.
After waiting for a long time, I didn't see a few Fu Lin come back, the concubines and concubines began to whisper a little irritably, Concubine Ning was pulled by the second prince Fuquan to return to the palace, so she said to Concubine Duanshun: "Sister, it's not a way for us to wait like this, look at this, the emperor and the queen, and the imperial concubine will be afraid that they won't be able to come back for a while, why don't we all go back to the palace first, and wait for the summons to come over?" ”
Concubine Duan Shun put down the teacup and sneered, and said in a long voice: "Without the emperor's words, who dares to go back?" Hongu doesn't have that guts. The emperor and the queen left in a hurry, and they didn't explain anything, but look at the meaning, they just went to the apse to discuss, if they came out to find someone to question, what should they do?
Concubine Gongjing said lightly: "Concubine Duanshun said well, now the imperial concubine is not only a big belly, but also a lot bigger, this holy favor is also a lot bigger, you have all seen this matter, even the queen has to accompany the careful, our sisters, it is better to be cautious, so as not to make the emperor unhappy, and it is not a joke to provoke the holy anger." If the second prince is sleepy, let the nurse carry him back first, sister, you should wait here. ”
Sizhen saw that everyone was anxious, anyway, she was not a member of the harem concubines, she stayed just to see that everyone had not left, and now seeing that Concubine Duanshun and Concubine Gongjing were unhappy, the concubines below didn't dare to be the first bird if they wanted to leave, so they smiled and said: "The queen mother authorized the two mothers to associate with the six palaces, and the two mothers can naturally call the shots, since the matter of the imperial concubine will not be concluded for a while, and the emperor and the queen mother did not say before leaving to let everyone wait, it is better for the ladies to send a word, let the people go back first, Lest you sit here and wait, if there is something that is fine, you might as well wait. ”
Looking at the people below with a sigh of relief, Sizhen said: "The courtiers said first, the courtiers want to ask for a favor for the two mothers, go back to Hanzhang Hall first, every day at noon, the courtiers have to meditate and practice, and they can't do it here." ”
Concubine Duanshun, Concubine Gongjing and others all knew that Sizhen's position in this harem was delicate, speaking of which, she was their sister-in-law, and no one wanted to offend her, and as soon as she opened her mouth, they all nodded in agreement.
As soon as Sizhen left, except for a few concubines who were okay and worried about Fu Lin coming out to blame, the rest of them also found excuses to leave.
Concubine Duanshun and Concubine Gongjing assist the queen in handling palace affairs on weekdays, and no matter how impatient they are, they can only wait, Concubine Zhen said that she was worried about Wuyunzhu and insisted on staying, and the other high-ranking concubines basically went back to the palace.
After a while, the three of Fulin came out, but they didn't say anything, only let everyone disperse, saying that they would wait for the conclusion of the imperial doctor to discuss it.
He helped the dark cloud bead out, and the concubines left behind looked at each other.
Concubine Duanshun carefully asked the queen what the emperor meant: "Queen Mother, is the imperial concubine okay?" The concubine was frightened when she looked at her today, why did the emperor go in and talk with you for a while, but there was no follow-up. ”
"Alas, we all misjudged her before." The queen sat on the chair and sighed loudly: "This palace looks at the emperor's meaning, this matter must be investigated to the end, and none of the people who handle it will be spared, if it is not for the imperial concubine to persuade the emperor, I don't know what the emperor will be angry about, maybe, this palace will set off a bloody storm!" ”
"The imperial concubine's temperament is really generous, and it is clear that she is the victim of this matter, but she explained to the emperor, saying that even if the sisters in our harem don't like her, they will never joke about the dragon heir, saying that maybe they are just mistaken, after all, the medicinal properties of Naping Er ginseng, even the Tai Hospital can't figure it out, and those who don't know it, only say that it is beneficial to use that ginseng soup...... I'm afraid it's caused by good intentions and bad things, persuade the emperor to put out his anger and not provoke the sisters to ...... for her."
Concubine Duanshun and the others glanced at each other, and said to the queen: "In this way, today's matter, that's it?" ”
"It's not that it's forgotten, it's still necessary to check." The queen frowned and sighed: "If something like this happens, even if the imperial concubine wants to calm things down, the emperor will not allow it." It's just that it won't be as large-scale as the emperor thought before, involving many ......"
Speaking of this, the queen regretted a little: "The palace had a lot of prejudices against the imperial concubine before, but I didn't expect her to be so kind-hearted......"
"The queen doesn't have to blame herself too much." Concubine Zhen sat down next to her and said softly: "Sister is kind-hearted, I don't want you to be like this, but there was some misunderstanding between everyone before, just solve it, and there is no need to mention those things about Chen sesame and rotten grain." Speaking of which, after entering the palace, even the concubines saw that the queen mother was fair, and she wanted the harem sisters to be harmonious, and she only hoped that everyone would serve the emperor well. Speaking of which, my sister can't help herself......"
"But everyone is now in the harem, instead of all kinds of unhappiness in the past, it is better to think about how to serve the emperor, share the emperor's worries as much as possible, and make the emperor feel happy in the harem, don't you say?"
The queen's face turned pale, she looked at Concubine Zhen for a moment, nodded and praised: "Concubine Zhen looks young, and her thoughts are quite thoughtful, but isn't this the reason, the family and everything is prosperous, only when the three palaces and six courtyards are harmonious, the emperor can do his best to the government and not worry about these trivial matters." Speaking of which, this incident is also negligent on the part of the palace, and it cares too little about the imperial concubine on weekdays. ”
Concubine Duanshun listened to Concubine Zhen persuade the queen with what she had said before, and looked at her with a smile.
A few people sat and gossiped before bidding farewell to the queen.
Leaving Kunning Palace, Concubine Duan Shun motioned to Concubine Zhen to join her, and when she left the sight of others, Concubine Duan Shun smiled at Concubine Zhen and said: "This time, you handled it very properly, if you directly aborted her fetus, it would be too obvious, and the emperor would never spare her, so let her suffer some hardships, and it would be fine." ”
Concubine Zhen was stunned: "The concubine still thinks that this thing is a means of the mother, is it possible that someone else did it?" ”
