Chapter 185: The Empress Pleases 1
Taking advantage of the night to return to the Qingjun Palace, as soon as he stepped close to Xichen Courtyard, Zixi heard a soft and eager voice.
"Your Royal Highness, you can make it convenient, the slave came by the order of the queen's mother, don't dare to neglect the errand."
Zixi raised his eyebrows slightly, and his feet slowed down.
With a slight turn of thought, she turned around and went straight to the Ripple Pavilion where she lived.
As soon as he stepped into the courtyard, Qiu Yan greeted him, "Miss." ”
"How's it going?" Zixi kept walking towards the house, "How long has the queen's people been here?" ”
"Just here." Qiu Yan said, "They obeyed Yi's order, and they didn't need to inform the king and princess of Qingjun, and directly ordered the guards in the palace to lead the way into Xichen Courtyard, but the people in the palace immediately went to report to the king and princess of the county." ”
At this time, the county king and the princess should have received the news and will soon go to Xichen Courtyard.
However, Uncle Feng Guo had an accident in the afternoon, and King Qingjun already knew about it, so the husband and wife should be mentally prepared at this time.
Zixi didn't say anything, and went into the house to start changing clothes.
She calculated the time in advance, and ordered Qiu Yan to arrange for someone to keep an eye on the Guozhang Mansion.
Before leaving the palace, the queen's decree had not yet been made, and it would not take long to go back and forth to the eldest princess's mansion with her skills.
Even if the queen immediately ordered someone to come and give the order, she would have enough time to prepare.
Stripped off a night robe and put on the moonlight robe that Qing Dai took from the shelf, Zixi sat on the pear wood carved soft couch, relaxed her body and half lay down.
took a sip of the fragrant tea handed over by Qing Dai, and she said lightly: "What is the situation in the Guozhang Mansion now?" ”
"The queen went with a few imperial doctors in the afternoon." Qiu Yan replied, "However, several old doctors in the Tai Hospital have been diagnosing the pulse one after another, but none of them can diagnose the cause, and they all say that Uncle Feng Guo is in good health, his pulse is stable, he is healthy, and he is neither poisoned nor injured, let alone sick." ”
Zixi smiled lightly.
It would be strange if they could diagnose the cause.
"The queen was so angry that her face turned blue, and she was furious with thunder." Qiu Yan smiled and gloated, "Later, Uncle Feng Guo woke up once, and the pain intensified, and the queen ordered them to find a way immediately, but the doctor couldn't diagnose the cause of the disease, so he had to prescribe a little pain-relieving ointment first and apply it to Uncle Feng Guo's scratched wrist." ”
Pain-relieving ointment?
Zixi was slightly stunned, and then smiled lightly: "These quacks in Xiling ......"
Feng Minzhi's wrist was scratched, because the meridians were itchy and unbearable, so he couldn't help but scratch his wrist, what is the use of pain-relieving ointment on the skin?
"However, the pain-relieving ointment did not work on Uncle Feng Guo, and after more than an hour, he fainted again."
Zixi snorted, not surprised.
"But the queen is a calm one." Qiu Yan frowned, "Although she was angry, she seemed to know that Uncle Fengguo's strange symptoms were beyond even the imperial doctor's treatment, and she could only turn to Miss Yu for help in the end, so she didn't dare to rashly come to the county king's mansion to ask for the guilt." ”
Zixi held the teacup and said in a slightly cool tone: "I didn't come to ask about the crime because she had no evidence." ”
King Qingjun is also the emperor's elder brother in the end, and he has the power of soldiers and horses, even if the queen wants to ask for guilt, he has to weigh it clearly.
Uncle Feng Guo was neither poisoned nor injured, and in such a situation where the evidence is insufficient, if he only relies on the words of those young ladies to ask for the guilt, I am afraid that it will not end well in the end.
