Chapter 82: Poisoned
"Huh? This...... But Concubine De's family background is also very prominent, Niangniang's father is Zuo Cheng of the first emperor dynasty, besides, she is your aunt's sister, how can your uncle and aunt not help? You are too young to understand this, this is a matter of course, the emperor will not be like this.; Ye Mushi frowned, still feeling unbelievable.
Ye Tanghua sighed, only to feel that her head hurt even more: "If my uncle wants to help Concubine De, I won't be so embarrassed in front of us today, my uncle is taking this opportunity to show loyalty to the emperor in front of me!" Even though the Mu family is deeply favored by the emperor, but the success is also Xiao He and Xiao He, the Mu family's current honor and favor are all in the hands of the emperor, the eldest uncle inherits the title, the power is high but not heavy, and the second and third uncles are all in the hands of His Majesty, so that the Mu family is completely under the control of the emperor. Your Majesty arranged it this way, and the Mu family did have the power to one side, but if Your Majesty became suspicious of the Mu family, he only took away the military power of the second uncle and transferred the position of the third uncle, and then there was only one Hou Ye left with the eldest uncle, what if he did everything he could? ”
"This ...... But how could your aunt be willing? Concubine De has been in the palace for many years and how can she say that she will fall, I don't think the emperor is such a kind of affectionate person. Ye Mushi bit his lower lip and muttered.
"What can my aunt do if she is unwilling? When it comes to the future of the Mu family, whether it is the old lady or the three uncles, they are not too confused people. The old lady was willing to support her mother in front of all the noblewomen in Beijing on the day of the birthday banquet, but she allowed her father to be transferred to Jiangnan for ten years and did not let the three uncles speak, this is the best evidence, the Mu family can be honored and spoiled, but they can no longer ask the emperor for power! There are gains and losses, without the Mu family, there is no status of the emperor today, the Mu family wants a glorious emperor, of course the emperor will give, but the Mu family wants to ask for more, the emperor has to weigh it, all dynasties have queen mothers, if they are like the Mu family, how can the royal family deal with themselves? Relatives have been taboo from interfering in politics since ancient times, after all, the surname of this world is Qi! Besides, the prime ministers on the left and right have already changed, and even my uncle now dares to beat my aunt in front of us, does my mother think that the emperor will still care about Concubine De? Ye Tanghua rubbed the corners of her forehead, and had to make her words clear, she didn't want to say these words, after all, it involves government affairs, and if she says too much, she will lose, but she doesn't know what to say, Ye Mushi can't see through it!
"This ...... Well, even if that's the case, it's not a good thing for the Mu family to get involved with Concubine De, but why is your uncle even more angry after hearing the dispute between you and your aunt on the day of the New Year's Banquet? Your dispute that day was clearly our own affair, and there was no need for your uncle to be so angry and accuse your aunt. The more Ye Mushi listened, the more frightened he became, and the more he felt that Ye Tanghua had become too much, one by one, which should a thirteen-year-old girl think?
"The mother is bad, although the uncle is even more angry, but not for the dispute, but for the daughter's next sentence, the mother still remembers, when the daughter mentioned the dispute, she said it in passing, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also thinks that the daughter is right?" Ye Tanghua said that she was thirsty, took a sip of the tea on the table, and said eloquently.
Ye Mushi nodded: "I remember, but what you said is the truth, although the prince helped you, but when your uncle was angry, she was not as angry as your uncle was today, why is this?" ”
Ye Tanghua smiled: "Then there is another relationship involved, that is, the relationship between His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Mu family." Mother thinks, what is the relationship between His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Mu family? ”
Ye Mushi frowned and said: "Naturally, it is close, Your Majesty is close to the Mu family, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should naturally follow His Majesty to get close to the Mu family, and the queen at the old banquet ordered Mu Qianlan to be the leader, isn't the meaning obvious?" ”
Ye Tanghua sighed and smiled helplessly: "Mother really takes it for granted, I have only heard of the love house and Wu, but I have never heard of the family house and Wu, there is a layer in the middle." If His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really close to the Mu family, why would the eldest uncle be scared like that? ”
"That's right, isn't the relationship between the prince and the Mu family good? Why? Ye Mushi asked blankly.
"It's because of this prince's position. Now that the crown prince is already governor, he will definitely start to organize his own forces, for the prince, the queen's mother is his serious relative, the person who will help him no matter what, but the Mu family is not. For the Mu family, it doesn't matter which prince they choose to support, because all the princes are the grandsons of the queen mother, and if the Mu family supports the prince, when the prince ascends the throne and is rewarded for his merits, the Mu family must not be as good as the queen's mother's family. Rather than this, the Mu family might as well choose a lonely prince to support, if you succeed, you will have the merit of supporting, and if you fail, you will have the support of the queen mother, who can take the Mu family? Ye Tanghua smiled and said the inferences from the old banquet that day concisely.
"This, according to what you said, the prince is not close to the Mu family? Not only are they not close, but they are also very jealous? Ye Mushi was shocked, he didn't expect this to be the case at all.
"Exactly. The prince is not stupid, firstly, he has seen through the glory and favor of the Mu family are tied to the emperor, and secondly, he is indeed taboo against the Mu family, the Mu family wants to surrender, and the prince has to weigh it, not to mention that now his aunt has sent such a big handle to the prince? In the future, if the prince has the heart, he will tell his aunt about the events of the day and tell his aunt that he is a bullier, and it is quite easy to take over the power of the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion. And if the emperor doesn't know about this matter, the Mu family can still deny it if I collude with me, but this incident made Concubine De stab the emperor again, even if it is a root buried in the emperor's heart, and when the prince is not happy, he will mention it by the way, and this root will sprout......"
When Ye Tanghua said this, she raised her eyes and glanced at Ye Mu's family, and saw Ye Mu's stunned expression, smiled and said to herself: "Uncle didn't know anything about these things, but as soon as he came today, I poked out all these things in a row, letting him know that when he didn't know it, his aunt had planted such a deep curse for the Mu family, and she deliberately hid it from him, who do you think he would be angry with, and who would he be angry with?" ”
"This ...... I, I don't know, I have to think about it......" Ye Mushi opened his mouth, and finally didn't say anything practical, just frowned blankly.
"Then you think slowly, my daughter will retire first." Ye Tanghua glanced at the sky and found that it was already a little dark, for fear that Feng Jiu Ge would not be able to find her early and bumped into someone else, so she simply got up and left first.
Ye Mushi nodded blankly: "You go down, wait for your mother to think about it......"
Ye Tanghua no longer hesitated, saluted and left.
After Ye Tanghua left, Ye Mushi bit his lower lip, stroked the jade bracelet on his wrist, frowned and calculated: "Is the emperor really unwilling to marry the Mu family's woman?" But ......"
On the other hand, this afternoon this afternoon has been a scene for too long, and when Ye Tanghua returned to the house, the sky was already dark, she hurriedly sent everyone out, and ordered Yuqiu to tell Silu in the concierge that she didn't have to come over tonight, Yuqiu knew what Ye Tanghua was waiting for, pursed her lips and smiled.
As soon as Ye Tanghua breathed a sigh of relief, she heard a man's laughter from the tent behind her: "It's really late to come back." ”
She was startled, and hurriedly lifted the curtain, only to see Feng Jiuge lying on her bed and looking at her with a smile, and couldn't help but be stunned: "You, how did you get in?" I didn't bump into anyone! ”
Feng Jiuge chuckled and sat up: "What are you afraid of when you bump into someone?" ”
"Of course you're not afraid, am I not afraid? If you spread the word, you are naturally a young man who is not romantic, and my reputation in this life will be ruined! Ye Tanghua frowned, obviously a little annoyed.
"Don't worry, I haven't met anyone, didn't you tell Yuqiu to be in this house before you left? She opened the door when I came, and no one saw me. Feng Jiuge saw that Ye Tanghua was angry, and hurriedly straightened up and went over to coax people.
Ye Tanghua glanced at him and flattened his mouth: "According to what you mean, what if it wasn't Yuqiu who was in the house tonight?" ”
"If it weren't for the rain and autumn, who would leave a crack in the window in this winter?" Feng Jiu Ge also laughed, laughing and laughing, but suddenly felt that something was wrong, and grabbed Ye Tanghua's wrist: "Don't move!" ”
Ye Tang Huayuan also made him laugh a little, but now he was startled when he saw him so solemn: "What's wrong?" ”
"Don't move, let me probe the pulse, you seem to have been poisoned." Feng Jiu Ge frowned and threw out such a sentence, which made Ye Tanghua surprised.
"Poisoned? How can it be? I've tried poison with silver chopsticks every day for what I eat, and besides, I didn't notice it when you came yesterday. Ye Tanghua was stunned for a moment, and then smiled.
"It must be poisoned in what you ate today." Feng Jiuge carefully probed his pulse for a while, and couldn't help frowning, "I don't know if it's because the medicinal power is slight or because I'm not good at learning, I didn't find out, but there is no doubt that you were poisoned." ”
After that, Feng Jiu Ge took out a jade plate from his bosom and put it in front of Ye Tang Hua, only to see that the jade card seemed to glow with a faint blue luster in the night, and the luster was more obvious when it came into contact with Ye Tang Hua, as if the moon was lingering on the surface of the jade card.
"This is a test poison jade, Miao Jiang paid tribute, but anyone who comes into contact with poison or poisoning will shine, in the order of red orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, red toxicity is the lightest, purple toxicity is the most intense, now it is blue and bright, it can be seen that the poison on your body is very toxic, but the blue light is still shallow, so it may be that the toxicity is weak, which also explains why I can't detect your poisoning just now."
"Is that so? But、But I didn't eat anything that could be poisonous, and what I ate today was nothing more than breakfast on weekdays, and ...... at noon Ah, the noon dish uses fresh melon vegetables sent from the palace, is it poisonous on it? But this dish was originally going to be delivered to the Marquis of Weiyuan's mansion......" Ye Tanghua was originally in a good mood, but after suddenly suffering from this unwarranted disaster, she suddenly felt a little wilted, and thought that she had been poisoned inexplicably, and became more and more displeased.
Feng Jiu Ge patted her hand lightly and comforted her: "Don't worry, since the toxicity is still shallow, it means that you are not in danger, although I can't detect it, but the master who taught me medical skills should always be able to find out, after all, it was discovered early." But from now on, you must be cautious about everything you eat, and don't eat anything made at home, I will do it in the palace and let Yuqiu send it over. ”
"That's all there is to it." Ye Tanghua said sullenly.
