Chapter 219: Toxic Onset
It's just that this thing is very old, and this scam is only afraid that the Queen Mother will hypnotize herself is true.
Chu Nian hid the disdain in his eyes, but the Queen Mother didn't notice it, and then said slowly: "At that time, the emperor was very anxious, and called a few imperial doctors who were helpless against this poison, until a barefoot doctor passing by said that he would cure the poison, and the prince invited him into the palace to treat the mourning family. ”
"The barefoot doctor said that the strongest wine is still needed, with all kinds of medicinal herbs - it has been too long, and the mourning family can't remember what medicinal herbs are, anyway, this wine is winter."
The Queen Mother stared at the remnants of the star-dotted wine in the wine cup gently, her face was a little nostalgic, and through those few drops of transparent wine, she seemed to be able to look into the distance.
"Because this wine is difficult to brew, even if it is brewed, it is not necessarily the strongest, it is almost impossible to find it in the city, but the barefoot doctor is extremely picky, it has to be the strongest kind, the first emperor was so angry with the barefoot doctor several times that he wanted to beat people, and saw the mourning family lying on the hospital bed, but he endured it, there was really no way, the first emperor went to learn the art of winemaking in person, and he learned to make wine in a short time."
"In the end, it really became a cold winter, and then the medicinal properties were exerted, and the body of the mourning family gradually improved, and the barefoot doctor was ready to leave, and when he left, he also told the mourning family that he should drink it with winter wine and medicinal herbs every year in the cold winter to remove the residual poison."
Speaking of this, the Queen Mother raised her face and smiled: "So the first emperor has to brew a pot of winter for the mourning family every year, and wait until the winter to take it, when the emperor is busy with the heir, and occasionally can't take care of it, so he teaches the mourning family to make their own wine day and night. ”
"That's the story." The Queen Mother smiled bitterly, picked up the teacup on the side and took a sip: "The mourning family said this today, not to make you sympathize with the mourning family, the mourning family just wants you to know that many things, the mourning family has also experienced, you think the mourning family is not good, but the mourning family is not like this from the beginning." ”
Chu Nian smiled slightly and didn't speak, she didn't know if people would make mistakes from the beginning, but she also knew that making a mistake was making a mistake, and the poor person must have something to hate, and there was no need to give kindness.
The Queen Mother said this, just to make her feel that the Queen Mother is also an amiable person, besides, Chu Nian did not believe all of the half-truths and half-truths, after all, the ruthless image of the Queen Mother has long been ingrained in everyone's impression.
Seeing that Chu Nian seemed to be caught in her own thoughts, the Queen Mother turned her eyes to look at Mama Bai, Mama Bai immediately understood, took a few steps forward, filled the wine cup in Chu Nian and the Queen Mother's hand, and listened to the Queen Mother continue: "Nian'er, you taste it again, this wine still tastes the same?" ”
Chu Nian glanced sideways at the wine jug in Mama Bai's hand, it was still the same one before, but the Queen Mother and Mama Bai seemed to have forgotten the wine that Chu Nian personally poured into the Empress Dowager's wine cup before, and there was still the wine that the Empress Dowager was angry and splashed out of the wine cup, and the wisps stuck to the tablecloth, damp and spicy.
"Nian'er?" Seeing that Chu Nian was motionless, the Queen Mother frowned and looked at Chu Nian, as if she was extremely dissatisfied: "The mourning family has told you so much, but you don't want to drink it?" ”
Chu Nian raised her eyebrows, and held the wine cup with her bare hand, but this time, the clean handkerchief was wrapped around the wine cup again, and she glanced meaningfully at the wine cup in the Queen Mother's hand, "The Queen Mother told such a moving story to the courtiers, how could the courtiers not give the Queen Mother this face?" However, since this wine has such a deep relationship with the emperor, it must be drunk with the queen mother. ”
As she spoke, she picked up the wine cup and drank all the wine in the cup, and when the Queen Mother saw it, she nodded with satisfaction, picked up the wine cup at hand, and drank it all.
Chu Nian raised his eyebrows and looked at the remaining wine stains on the Queen Mother's mouth, took the clean handkerchief, and gently wiped it on the side of the Queen Mother's mouth.
The Queen Mother didn't care too much, and let Chu Nian intimately wipe the wine stains from her mouth, and then said slowly: "You kid, you have always been careful." ”
Seeing this, Chu Nian hooked the corners of his lips slightly: "It was the courtiers who misunderstood the Queen Mother before, but everyone makes mistakes, and it is good that the Queen Mother can wake up now." ”
It seemed that there was a hint of something wrong in Chu Nian's voice, and the Queen Mother turned her head to look at Chu Nian in hindsight, but there was a dizziness in her brain, and then, she only saw the hasty face of Mama Bai in front of her, and Chu Nian's meaningful smile.
"The Queen Mother!"
Mama Bai looked at the fallen Queen Mother in panic, turned her eyes to look at Chu Nian, and said angrily: "Wushuang County Lord, but you murdered the Queen Mother?" ”
Chu Nian looked very innocent: "Today's wine and food are all from the hands of the imperial dining room, and then brought in by Mama Bai herself, how did the courtiers murder the queen mother?" It's better for Mama Bai to ask the imperial doctor to come over quickly, otherwise after a while, something will happen to the Queen Mother, and Mama Bai is naturally clear. ”
The food and wine are all from you, and if you find out anything, it is your business. Bai Mama naturally didn't dare to bear the consequences, but Chu Nian stayed in Cining Palace with no intention of leaving, and she didn't want to feed the antidote to the Queen Mother in front of Chu Nian, so she cooperated with the two little eunuchs to move the Queen Mother to the bed, but Chu Nian kept following her.
Mama Bai was in a hurry to save the Queen Mother, the poison was given by her, of course she knew the medicinal properties of the poison, and now the Queen Mother just fainted, if it was a while, I was afraid that the effect of the drug would attack, and the Queen Mother would show her charm, and then it would be troublesome......
Looking at Chu Nian, who was still standing on the edge of the bed, her eyes were full of concern, and Mama Bai was anxious: "Wushuang County Lord, it's better to go back and rest first, it's good to have an old body here." ”
Saying that, Mama Bai didn't forget to look at Chu Nian's face, for fear that she wouldn't agree, but she saw that the person seemed to be in her own thoughts, and after a while, she nodded decisively and said, "Okay, then the Queen Mother will be handed over to Mama Bai for the time being......"
"Where is the Queen Mother?"
Two figures, one black and one silver, suddenly broke in, it was Ming Xiu and Dark Rin, and when they saw the Queen Mother lying on the couch, both of them were stunned.
Chu Nian looked at the two of them with some doubts, and saw the dark and gloomy face, as well as the anxious look on Ming Xiu's face, and immediately understood that the two of them might have heard something, so they came to rescue her, but they didn't expect that it was the Queen Mother who fell on the couch.
But for a moment, the two of them seemed to have understood the cause and effect, only to see Ming Xiu frowning and saying, "What's wrong with the imperial grandmother?" ”
Of course, Mama Bai knew that this matter should have been handled in a low-key manner, after all, it was they who wanted to poison the Wushuang County Lord, but they didn't expect Ming Xiu and Dark Rin to come in at this time.
Her old face was stunned for a moment, and then she turned her eyes to look at Dark Rin for help, "This ......"
Dark Rin frowned and glanced at the Queen Mother on the couch, then turned his eyes to Ming Xiu and said, "His Royal Highness the Prince, I'm afraid it's the Queen Mother's old illness." ”
Ming Xiu's eyes flashed and looked at the darkness in front of him, he was because he heard that the Queen Mother invited Chu Nian to the palace to eat wine today, and remembered that in order to let the emperor favor the concubines who were unexpected in addition to the queen, the Queen Mother had used the means again and again, and he had a little ominous premonition in his heart, and now looking at this situation, he was afraid that his guess was accurate, but he also underestimated Chu Nian, the Queen Mother's method of succeeding in the former emperor I don't know how many times, was easily resolved by Chu Nian.
But Dark Rin actually appeared here, but I am afraid that I also received the news.
"Grandmother's old illness?" Knowing that Dark Rin wanted to help the Queen Mother get out, Ming Xiu would not let go of this great opportunity, and suddenly said with anxious eyes: "What old disease did the imperial grandmother have?" Serious or not? Why not tell us? ”
As he spoke, he turned his head and said to the door regardless of the obstruction: "Imperial Doctor Xuan, just say that the Queen Mother is sick." ”
The guards outside immediately understood, answered, and turned to leave.
Mama Bai didn't have time to stop it, but she became more and more anxious, you know, if the imperial doctor comes to find out the cause of the Queen Mother's pathology, then this matter will not be able to be hidden, and then it will be a big trouble!
Seeing Ming Xiu's move, the dark Rin on the side also frowned, and saw Ming Xiu turn his eyes to look at Chu Nian and said, "Why is the county lord here?" ”
Chu Nian winked at Ming Xiu, and said sloppily: "The Empress Dowager said that she wanted to invite the courtiers to eat and drink, and the courtiers came, but I didn't expect to tell a story, and the Empress Dowager suddenly fainted, maybe it was the courtier's fault, if it wasn't for the courtiers who wanted to listen to the story, the Empress Dowager wouldn't have been so tired of telling the story." ”
Mama Bai on the side listened, but didn't speak, and the calculation in her heart turned quickly, and the most was how to escape the eyes of the imperial doctor.
At this stall, Dark Rin suddenly looked up at Mama Bai, and her eyes drifted out of the door, seeing the heavy snow outside the door, Mama Bai immediately understood, and hurriedly took a few steps forward and said: "His Royal Highness the Prince, Lord Dark Rin, the Queen Mother is on fire, the old slave will go to give the Queen Mother a basin of ice water, it should be relieved." ”
When this poison occurs, it will be full of fever, calculate the time, and then a stick of incense, the symptoms of the queen mother will gradually appear, time does not wait for people, if you can wipe it with ice water to cool down the queen mother, maybe you can hide the ugly state of the poison, even if the doctor comes, there should be no problem.
But Ming Xiu seemed to see through Mama Bai's careful thoughts, he glanced sideways at Dark, his narrow eyes flickered slightly, and the silver-white person over there was standing silently, as if he was out of the matter.
Glancing at Chu Nian again, seeing the slight cunning flashing in those watery eyes, Ming Xiu suddenly smiled vaguely, and then said: "Mama Bai, don't act rashly before the imperial doctor comes, if you, the earthman, treat the emperor's grandmother wrongly, you may be responsible?" ”
Mama Bai's face froze, she turned her eyes to look at the Queen Mother lying on the couch, sighed, and then looked at Dark Rin for help, but unfortunately Dark Rin turned a blind eye to Mama Bai's asking for help this time, no matter how anxious Mama Bai was, he didn't say a word more.
At this stall, I saw that the Queen Mother on the couch seemed to move, and Ming Xiu rushed over before Mama Bai completely blocked the Queen Mother, and lay on the side of the couch and said, "Imperial grandmother? Imperial grandmother? How are you? ”
There seemed to be a weak voice on the couch: "Water, mourning family wants water, it's so hot......"
Seeing Ming Xiu stretch out his hand, the Queen Mother also stretched out a hand to hold Ming Xiu's hand: "Ming Xiu? Why are you here? ”
