Chapter 63: Poisoning
Xie Fanghua glanced at the embarrassed guard, then at Chen Zhiyi, who was full of irritability, and then thought about Liu Wan, and suddenly understood.
"Let's go, I'll come with you." Xie Fanghua said to the guard.
Although Concubine Yu Guifei didn't say that she would let Xie Zhaoyi go with her, but looking at Xie Zhaoyi's situation, if she didn't let her go, I'm afraid she wouldn't let Miss Chen Er go, and if Miss Chen didn't go, she wouldn't be able to pay the difference......
The guard thought twice and agreed.
Along the way, Chen Zhiyi followed behind Xie Fanghua without saying a word.
I made trouble for my sister again.
She thought that if Liu Wan came to her again, I was afraid that she would not be able to pay attention to her no matter what, otherwise who knew if there would be another accident next time.
I thought about this all the way, until I reached the outside of Princess Pingle's tent, Xie Fanghua stopped, and Chen Zhiyu almost bumped into it.
The guard said to Xie Fanghua: "Zhaoyi Niangniang, go in." β
Xie Fanghua snorted, glanced back at Chen Zhiyi, who was quite honest, and went in first, Chen Zhiyi was stunned for a moment, and also followed Xie Fanghua's footsteps.
Inside the tent, Princess Pingle was lying at the head of the bed, holding her stomach with her hands, it seemed that her stomach was hurting, and her body had to twitch a few times from time to time.
Concubine Yu's face was full of anxiety and anger, and she kept asking how Princess Pingle was doing.
Yu Guang caught a glimpse of someone coming in, and Concubine Yu knew that Chen Zhiyi was coming, so she turned around sharply to look, but she didn't expect Xie Fanghua to be there.
She snorted coldly, "Xie Zhaoyi really spoils your sister." Now that your sister has poisoned the daughter of this palace, how can this palace see how you still indulge her? β
Chen Zhiyi was called aggrieved, she wanted to refute Concubine Yu, but she was afraid of the identity of the other party, and she didn't want to cause trouble for Xie Fanghua, so she stubbornly endured it and shut up.
Xie Fanghua glanced at Princess Pingle and only asked, "Imperial Doctor, what kind of poison did the princess have?" How's it going? β
The imperial doctor got up and said, "Back to Zhaoyi's words, Her Royal Highness the princess has been poisoned by Lei Gongteng. Tripterygium wilfordii is a kind of intestinal grass, after being poisoned, it will have a headache and want to vomit, the abdominal pain is unbearable, and the body will also convulsions. But fortunately, Her Royal Highness the princess was found in time, and the amount of thunder wilfordii was also small, as long as she thought of asking Her Royal Highness the princess to spit it out, and then give her sugar water. β
Xie Fanghua nodded, and looked at Concubine Yu again, "Her Royal Highness the princess is fine, and the concubine doesn't have to worry." β
"Xie Fanghua, what do you mean by this? Are you happy when something happens to Pingle? "Although Princess Pingle is only an adopted daughter, but after so many years, Concubine Yu also has feelings for her, no matter how she is used, the only thing that remains unchanged is to hope that Princess Pingle is safe.
Chen Zhiyi kept his head down, looking at his toes, and didn't intend to interject.
Even if she interjected, she didn't know what to say!
Say it wasn't her poison? Will Yu Guifei believe it?
Apparently not.
"Guifei Niangniang, although Zhiyi has some grudges with Princess Pingle, she will definitely not do anything to poison the princess," Xie Fanghua said lightly, "It's not so much the poison of Zhiyi, it's more like another person, her purpose is nothing more than to cause a dispute between the Xie family of the Chen family and your Yu family." β
Who? The Xia family?
Concubine Yu Guifei thinks no, Queen Xia doesn't have the heart and ability, and she doesn't have that mind now. You must know that Empress Xia's brother Xia Lingsheng is still fighting against Xiyue on the battlefield! Where is there any leisure to think about the affairs of the Yu family and the Xie family.
Seeing that Concubine Yu didn't speak, Xie Fanghua said again: "Concubine Niangniang, let's treat Her Royal Highness the princess first!" β
The imperial doctor hurriedly said at this time: "The ministers will do their best to cure Her Royal Highness the princess." β
Concubine Yu Guifei did not give up, and said angrily: "Xie Fanghua, this matter was caused by Chen Zhiyi, no matter what, I have to give an explanation to the palace!" β
Concubine Yu is not stupid, she also knows that no matter how stupid Chen Zhiyi is, she will not personally poison Princess Pingle and bring porridge to Princess Pingle in person, but something has happened, if she is told to take a step back, is it possible?
Impossible, it would have swept her concubine's face.
Since you can't find the real poisoner, you have to make Chen Zhiyi pay the price!
Chen Zhiyi really couldn't help it, she raised her head suddenly, and said angrily: "Concubine Niangniang, how can you be so unreasonable? Why should I confess what I didn't do? β
Concubine Yu obviously didn't expect Chen Zhiyu to refute herself, so she was stunned for a moment, and patted the bed angrily to get up, "Chen Zhiyu! Bengong and Xie Zhaoyi are talking, is it your turn to interject? Also, be careful about how you talk to Hongu! β
"I ......" Chen Zhiyi wanted to continue, but was stopped by Xie Fanghua.
"Guifei Niangniang, this porridge was indeed sent by Zhiyi, but it was not made by Zhiyi. Today, Miss Liu Wan invited some people to drink porridge from her, if you really want to investigate, why don't you call Miss Liu to ask questions? Xie Fanghua said.
She told Liu Ye that if Liu Wan caused trouble again, she would not let Liu Wan go for Liu Ye's sake, and now it seems that Liu Wan is really the kind of person who doesn't know what to do.
Concubine Yu didn't think about it so much, since the imperial doctor said that her adopted daughter could be cured, then she was relieved.
It's just that now Xie Fanghua said that she wanted to find the young lady of the Liu family for questioning, and Concubine Yu was a little hesitant.
She looked at Xie Fanghua, still with such an indifferent face.
Concubine Yu hates Xie Fanghua like this the most, as if everything is worthless in her eyes, even if something happens to her sister, she is still like this!
In fact, Concubine Yu Guifei would not understand the anger and anxiety in Xie Fanghua's heart.
The anger is because Liu Wan doesn't know what to do, and the anxiety is because Chen Zhiyi is naΓ―ve and naΓ―ve.
"Someone! Call Miss Liu Wan of the Liu family! Concubine Yu Guifei walked five steps in front of Xie Fanghua and stopped.
The guards outside answered yes and hurried off again.
Not long after, Liu Wan was called, she was a little anxious and worried, but she kept her head down, and no one noticed her expression.
Liu Wan saluted, raised her head slightly and glanced at Chen Zhiyi, who was looking at her, and hurriedly lowered her head.
Chen Zhiyi had already scolded this in his heart, Miss Liu, who seemed to be weak and actually ruthless, thousands of times. If it weren't for Liu Wan, would she have been so aggrieved that she would have to be reprimanded by Concubine Yu for even saying a word?
Concubine Yu glanced at Xie Fanghua, walked around her and walked towards Liu Wan, "You invited Chen Zhiyi to drink porridge today?" β
"Back to the words of the concubine, yes." Liu Wan lowered her head even further.
"You were poisoned?" Concubine Yu got straight to the point and asked.
When Liu Wan heard this, she quickly knelt down, kowtowed and said in a panic: "Guifei Niangniang Mingjian, Liu Wan has a good relationship with Princess Pingle, and she will definitely not do such a thing......"
People who say this kind of thing, Concubine Yu is used to seeing in the harem.
Xie Fanghua also walked over, "But Princess Pingle ate your porridge and was poisoned." β
On the side of the imperial doctor, Princess Pingle began to vomit, he just said that Princess Pingle vomited, the maid hurriedly took the spittoon and continued, and then asked the imperial doctor how Princess Pingle was now.
Concubine Yu Guifei heard Princess Pingle's vomiting, and hurriedly turned around and asked, "Imperial Doctor, is the princess okay?" β
The imperial doctor listened to the conversation of several women, and was a little nervous, "If you go back to the concubine Niangniang, give the princess a few more cups of sugar and boiled water, and it will be fine." β
Concubine Yu hurriedly went to order someone to prepare sugar boiling water.
Xie Fanghua asked again, and Liu Wan almost fell to the ground, "Zhaoyi Niangniang, you can't help Miss Chen frame me just because she is your sister...... My porridge, so many people drank it and it was fine, why did I get poisoned after drinking the porridge sent by Miss Chen? β
Xie Fanghua took a step closer to her again, and her cold voice was like a cold jade, "What?" Miss Liu means that it is Zhiyi's poison on the road? β
Without waiting for Liu Wan to speak, Concubine Yu Guifei spoke first: "Miss Liu is not wrong, Chen Zhiyu has already had a bad relationship with the daughter of this palace, and it is not unreasonable to poison her." β
"Mother concubine......" Princess Pingle woke up and called out to Concubine Yu in a daze.
"Pingle? Are you awake? As soon as Concubine Yu heard this voice, she happily went to her side again and helped her up in person.
Princess Pingle heard their conversation just now, she thought that her relationship with Chen Zhiyi had reached an irrelievable point, and Liu Wan intended to please herself, why didn't she help Liu Wan?
Thinking of this, Princess Pingle's tears suddenly welled up, "Mother, Pingle really doesn't know where to offend Miss Chen, if you have to get along with Pingle, you have to poison ......."
Chen Zhiyi's face was black, and he really wanted to answer Princess Pingle, she offended herself everywhere.
When Liu Wan heard Princess Pingle speak, she knew that she intended to help her, so she kowtowed and sobbed again: "Guifei Niangniang, Liu Wan is just the niece of Dali Siqing, and she knows that her status is low, and she can't have too close relationships with Her Royal Highness the Princess, but Liu Wan really regards Her Royal Highness the Princess as a friend, how could she poison Her Royal Highness the Princess?" β
Chen Zhiyan really couldn't listen to it anymore.
How do these people cry when they say they cry? Can't run out of tears?
Xie Fanghua endured her anger and stared at Liu Wan's slender body, but said to Concubine Yu: "If Concubine Niangniang wants to deal with the murderer, then investigate the matter thoroughly, so as not to wronged my sister." β
Chen Zhiyi walked a few steps, walked to Xie Fanghua's side, and pulled her sleeve, "Sister, forget it." β
As soon as Liu Wan heard Xie Fanghua say that she would investigate thoroughly, she panicked all of a sudden, and hurriedly said: "Guifei Niangniang, this incident was caused by Liu Wan, if you want to blame Liu Wan, don't blame Miss Chen." β
A smile appeared on the corner of Xie Fanghua's mouth, squinted her eyes, and said: "I think Miss Liu Wan is right, since Princess Pingle is good, don't pursue it any further, it's not good for anyone to make a big deal about this matter, do you say yes, concubine?" β
It really can't be a big deal.
Princess Pingle has just been under house arrest for a long time, and now she is making trouble because of poisoning, if it reaches the ears of the emperor, she will feel that Concubine Yu Guifei has no way to discipline her, and she will feel that Princess Pingle is pampered and arrogant, which is very bad for the Yu family.
Yu Guifei's hand in her sleeve clenched tightly into a fist, took a deep breath and loosened her fist, "Since Pingle is already fine, forget about this matter." β
