Chapter 163: The Queen Mother Comes Back from the Dead
Caihe summoned everyone who was in the dining room that day and interrogated them one by one, Feng Huali had been watching from the sidelines, staring at the faces and expressions of those people, trying to find out the flaws in them.
It was the scorching sun, and Feng Huali didn't plan to move into the house, so he interrogated these people outside. I kept asking until I was sweating and the sun was about to set, and finally the hard work paid off, and Feng Huali found such a person.
The maid was flustered when she was asked, and she stammered when she explained, and she didn't dare to look directly into the eyes of Feng Huali and Caihe, so she almost wrote the word "weakness" on her face. Feng Huali stretched out his hand, paused the interrogation, and asked Caihe to bring the maidservant up.
"Say?" It was also very lucky to meet such a timid person, Feng Huali didn't go around in circles with her, and asked straight to the point.
The servant girl was so frightened that she fell to the ground: "I didn't mean to, no......"
"Don't you tell me, who instructed me?" Caihe asked loudly.
The handmaid held her head high, and her eyes glistened with tears. Feng Huali noticed that her cheeks were shaking slightly. Feng Hua said that it was not good, and just wanted to stop it, but the servant girl had already opened her mouth, and blood gushed out of it, and then the servant girl fell back and fell to the ground.
Caihe was startled, stepped forward to probe his nose, and shook his head helplessly.
Feng Huali told Caihe the beginning and end of this incident, and now this servant girl has committed suicide with a weak heart, and the evidence is conclusive. It's just that this maid is so timid, there must be other people from Concubine Liang in this Xiang Guifei's palace instructing this maid.
It's just that now that the servant girl is dead, the clue is broken here, and no matter how much you investigate, it will be difficult to get results. Feng Huali asked Caihe to report the matter, and reminded by the way: "Pay more attention in the future, there are still traitors in the Niangniang Palace." ”
Caihe nodded heavily, after the incident last time, he had already screened the people in this palace, and it was a period of time without incident, who knew that there was such a thing now, it seems that he will have to be more cautious in the future.
This matter finally passed like this, Feng Huali just wanted to go back to the palace to rest, but he was confronted by a large group of guards. They held Feng Huali on the shelf, but this time they were very hard, and they didn't show mercy at all.
Feng Huali looked at them in astonishment, and Caihe also hurriedly explained: "The poisoning of Concubine Xiang has been investigated, and it has nothing to do with Feng Huali. ”
One of the guards turned around: "We are not for the case of Concubine Xiang, but for the murder of the Queen Mother!" ”
This crime is not ordinarily serious, Feng Huali felt even more inexplicable, he cured the Queen Mother's stubborn illness, why not only did he not reward himself, but also arrested himself: "I am the one who saved the Queen Mother's life, why don't you distinguish between good and bad?" ”
The guard sneered and glanced at Feng Huali with disdain: "Save the Queen Mother?" The Queen Mother is dead! ”
"What?" Feng Huali and Caihe asked at the same time, when did the Queen Mother happen, Feng Huali treated her in the past few days, obviously her body is getting better and better, and she will be fine in a few days, it is impossible to die suddenly.
The guards escorted Feng Huali to the Empress Dowager's palace, and there were many people in the Empress Dowager's palace, waiting for Feng Hua to leave. The guard pushed her, and she hit the queen mother's bedside.
Feng Huali stepped forward to check the pulse of the Queen Mother, and there was indeed no pulse. Feng Huali raised her eyelids again and opened the Queen Mother's mouth to look. Judging from this situation, the Queen Mother did not have the phenomenon of poisoning, but died naturally as if she had a lung disease.
How so...... Feng Huali frowned deeply, even if the improvement of the previous few days was a return to the light, it was too long, and he couldn't explain what was going on with normal reasons.
Just when Feng Hua was stunned, Concubine Liang suddenly spoke, and a doctor surnamed Li was transmitted. This person Feng Huali looked familiar, it was the Imperial Doctor Li who had proposed to treat the Queen Mother and took the lead in strong opposition.
Imperial Physician Li took a medicine jar, which contained the residue of Feng Huali's previous medicine, he took out a few flavors of medicine residue in it, put it on the table, and said: "This is a medicine called Bai He, in fact, it should be taken from Qing He." ”
"Nonsense, you don't know how to heal the Queen Mother." Feng Huali glared at him angrily, the taste of Bai He was dispensable, and it would not affect the Queen Mother's healing too much, but he made a fuss about this.
Imperial Physician Li pointed to the body of the Queen Mother and said mockingly: "Then you will be cured?" ”
Feng Huali was speechless, he did treat the Queen Mother according to the normal process, and now it is obviously not due to himself. Imperial Physician Li took the opportunity to say: "This is obviously because of your dereliction of duty, which caused the Queen Mother to become what she is today." ”
Feng Huali only felt that he couldn't argue, and he healed the Queen Mother by himself, but he became a good person doing bad things.
All this is not over, Concubine Liang, who has been watching from the side, finally stood up, first walked in front of Feng Huali and snorted contemptuously twice. Then she walked to the emperor's side, and suddenly remembered something: "Imperial Doctor Li, this palace remembers that your family has passed on the art of resurrecting the dead?" ”
Imperial Physician Li instantly became sincerely frightened, he knelt on the ground, and exaggeratedly kowtowed three times in a row: "This resurrection technique is only one in a hundred miles, it is really too difficult, and I am afraid of ......."
"If you're not afraid, just give it a try." Concubine Liang instigated on the side, but the meaning was that the Queen Mother was dead, no matter how bad it was, where could she go?
All this sounds ridiculous to Feng Huali, if there is really a way to return to heaven in the world, then wouldn't everyone be bothered by illness. But what made Feng Huali feel even more ridiculous was the attitude of everyone, no one present objected, even the emperor was skeptical, and he looked like he could give it a try.
Maybe others didn't question it because they were superstitious about these ghost and god techniques, but Yan Yu was not, he experienced his mother's critical illness one after another, gradually got better, and now died suddenly. Yan Yu couldn't bear any more, and now he was willing to give it a try if there was any way to save the Queen Mother.
So Imperial Physician Li also pretended to invite a sorcerer, beating gongs and drums, and ringing bells, which was really noisy. In the end, Imperial Physician Li grabbed a wisp of the so-called "fairy qi" in his mouth from the air and stuffed it into the Queen Mother's lips.
In just a pillar of incense, the Queen Mother slowly opened her eyes in front of everyone: "Why is it this afternoon, why did the mourning family sleep for so long?" ”
It seems that the Queen Mother still doesn't know anything about what is happening here, and only thinks that she is asleep. Everyone felt that God was divine, and they all thought that God had opened his eyes and let the Queen Mother go.
In order to avoid bad luck, the idle people and the few witch doctors were all cleared, leaving only Feng Huali, Yan Yu, Concubine Liang and Imperial Doctor Li at the scene.
When the Queen Mother saw such a big battle in her room, she realized that something was wrong, so she asked Yan Yu: "What's wrong?" ”
Concubine Liang said sharply: "This girl who can't help herself treats you, but you almost fell into the Yellow Spring, if it weren't for Imperial Doctor Li, the concubine really didn't know what to do......"
As she spoke, Concubine Liang burst into tears.
Although the Queen Mother believed in these gods, demons and Buddhas, she remembered that Feng Huali had been treating herself these days, and she really had to feel much better, she said suspiciously: "But she ...... a girl."
Concubine Liang slapped the bed board fiercely, so frightened that the Queen Mother trembled, Concubine Liang stared at Feng Huali very angrily, as if she had a very deep hatred: "She put the wrong medicine in the medicine she gave you, which caused you to almost die!" ”
The Queen Mother looked at the kneeling Feng Huali, and a pity inexplicably rose in her heart, not to mention that the Queen Mother believed in Buddhism, and the Buddhists were compassionate, and the Queen Mother didn't want to pursue Feng Huali too much: "I think she is also kind, so I don't blame her anymore." ”
Seeing this situation, the Queen Mother wanted to pardon Feng Hua's departure, which was not the wish of Concubine Liang, she had worked so hard to do so much, but not to hear the result of not being investigated.
Concubine Liang frowned and said: "I'm afraid the Queen Mother doesn't know what kind of character this girl is, she first colluded with her father-in-law in the show girl exam, and then poisoned Concubine Xiang's food, and now she is wrong in the medicine prescribed to the Queen Mother......"
Concubine Liang hooked her lips and looked at Feng Huali: "Who knows if she did it on purpose, this kind of person is not worthy of your mercy at all." ”
said this, but Feng Huali was said to be a big sinner, the Queen Mother looked at Feng Huali with a little more complicated eyes, if Feng Huali was really the kind of person in Concubine Liang's mouth, the Queen Mother would never tolerate it.
This is a life-threatening matter, Feng Huali hurriedly explained reasonably: "The poisoning of Xiang Guifei has been investigated, it was done by a servant girl, and I have also detoxified Xiang Guifei before, if I don't want Xiang Guifei to live, I'm afraid she will be gone." ”
Although Feng Huali was convincing, Concubine Liang didn't care at all, she sneered and said, "What about colluding with the father-in-law?" ”
Feng Huali choked, it was also an accident that he won all the championships, Feng Huali didn't want to be so prominent, and he also helped the father-in-law in charge to cure the perennial headache.
She couldn't speak, which was tantamount to acquiescing in such a thing. But Concubine Liang's next words were even more excessive, she actually deduced that Concubine Xiang's poisoning was Feng Hua's hand, but it was just a servant girl to blame afterwards.
Concubine Liang looked at Feng Huali with disgust: "People like her can't do anything, and the reason why she has these rumors is not her own reason." ”
In this way, Concubine Xiang's matter was single-handedly promoted by Concubine Liang, and the affairs of the Queen Mother must be inseparable from Concubine Liang. Although Feng Huali didn't know where to provoke this lady, she could clearly feel that this person was targeting her.
And the Queen Mother obviously believed in Concubine Liang more, and her eyes wandered a little between Concubine Liang and Feng Huali, and the Queen Mother looked at Feng Huali with some dissatisfaction, and was about to say something unfavorable to Feng Huali.
