Chapter 49: The Poisoning of the Four Highnesses
When the two walked out of the apse, Bai Manqing, who was inquiring about the news, also turned back, and saw the two bowing their hands, and Ji Fu stood aside without speaking.
Bai Manqing stepped forward and whispered in Convenience's ear, and a hint of amusement suddenly appeared on Convenience's face.
"I know, you've worked hard, come with me to the front hall for dinner!" Expedient beckoned her by the arm, and the two of them were like sisters.
"What makes you so happy?"
"Secret!" Quan Yichong raised his eyebrows at Ji Fu and said proudly.
In order to prevent desertion and collision with the gods during the vegetarian period, Quan Duo ordered everyone to eat together from this day on.
After all, it is a Buddhist temple, the meal needs to be quiet, expedient and happy, no one comes to her errand, she has just finished a relatively comfortable lunch.
When he returned to the meditation room, Ji Fu was already resting on the couch, so it was obvious that he hadn't slept all night last night, so he took Bai Manqing and Xiaohe away, and looked at Ji Fu by the table, and she fell asleep by herself.
"Die, die!" Quan Wenshu shouted and entered the house, changing the gentle and virtuous appearance of the tree on weekdays, and at the moment he was like a child who had been robbed of a toy.
"Princess!" The maid behind her stepped forward to help her sit down.
She also wanted to go to the Buddhist hall to chant a scripture, so as to show her filial piety in front of the emperor, but she didn't expect to bump into Expedient and Ji Fu's laughing brain, after lunch, she wanted to go to Zhao Jifu again, and saw Ji Fu enter Expedient's meditation room.
The favor she worked so hard to win was at her fingertips, but the pity was within reach, why, she was unwilling.
"Princess, since you have all arrived at Daotian Temple, what can you do if you leave the expediency here completely, she hasn't always boasted that she is not in good health, the fourth highness and the fifth princess are ready, and no one can rob you of the marquis after tonight."
The maidservant hinted at her actions tonight, and Quan Wenshu's clenched fist was released: "Quan Xun and Quan Yan, the two who are not successful can do this well." ”
"That's not what you investigated, princess, the little thing about the Fourth Highness is all expedient to interfere with it, taking advantage of the revenge of the Fourth Highness, it is expedient that she will die tonight."
When Quan Yiyi woke up again, it was already evening, Xiaohe had just put on a new incense, and she woke up and extinguished the fire in her hand.
"Princess, are you awake?"
Quan Yi uncovered the quilt and rubbed his sour eyebrows, "What about Master Hou?" ”
"At that time, Lord Ziyun came to deliver the message, and went out in a hurry, and the Hou Ye also told the slave and maid not to go to dinner when you woke up, and said that he was not feeling well."
Quan Yiyi frowned, could it be that they were about to start, and when he was puzzled, Bai Manqing came in with a meal: "Princess, this is what Master Hou ordered his subordinates to do, saying that you won't go to dinner tonight for fear that you will be hungry." ”
"I'm really hungry, don't be busy, sit down and eat together!" Expedient waved his hand, and the two of them sat down.
Since someone has blocked the flood beast for her, then she should take a rest.
In the front hall, the three sisters of Quan Feifei were together, and Quan Wenshu's face was full of the shyness of a little woman, and his little face was red.
Quan Feifei on the side stepped forward and pouted: "Sister Huang, it's all here, my father and the emperor haven't come yet, you can go and send it quickly!" ”
"There are so many people, what if people spread it out and be blamed by their father." Quan Feifei continued to whirlwind, raising his eyes from time to time to look at the man sitting in second place opposite, and quickly withdrew his eyes.
"Sister Huang, if you don't take the initiative again, be careful that the Hou Ye is really snatched away by the cheap hoof of the expediency." Quan Feifei saw that she was unmoved, and could only use the law.
Quan Wenshu's face changed, he got up and lifted the lunch box and walked to Ji Fu's position, lowered his eyes and handed over the things: "Shuofeng Hou, the food in this temple is light, I'm afraid that you won't be used to eating it, so I made some pastries that are often made in the palace, and I hope the Hou Ye will not dislike it." ”
Ji Fuzheng looked at the right inquiry on the side, but he didn't expect Quan Wenshu to come over and perform such a play, and he didn't know whether to continue or put down the wine on his lips, he narrowed his eyes: "Thank you princess for your kindness, I don't like sweets!" ”
"Ahh Quan Wenshu raised her head, she obviously saw that Ji Fu had eaten osmanthus cake in front of Quan Yi, whether she didn't like sweets or didn't like her, she laughed at herself, took her things and returned to her place, just sat down, the emperor and queen were late.
After a brief greeting, everyone lowered their heads and began to eat the food in front of them, knowing the sound of a person falling to the ground, the originally quiet front hall suddenly became agitated.
Everyone looked up at the party who was looking for the situation, and at this glance, they saw that the dining table in front of Quan Xun fell to the ground, and Quan Xun lay on the desk and couldn't move, vomiting a big pool of blood, the whole person was in pain, and his forehead was already a layer of cold sweat.
The guards next to him hurriedly wanted to help him up, and the first emperor was also a little panicked, shouting for someone to find a doctor. The guards in front of him stood in front of him, shouting to protect His Majesty, and the entire front hall cried for help, screaming and frightening one after another, and the front hall was in chaos.
When the expedient heard the news again, it was already Quanxun food poisoning, and the emperor ordered the entire Daotian Temple to be blocked, just to thoroughly investigate the murderer who poisoned Quanxun's food.
The man who came was Yusin, who surrounded the courtyard where the expedient was with a team of guards.
"Lord Yu, what is this?"
You Xin smiled and bowed: "If you go back to the princess, you are ordered to investigate the murderer, you don't have to care, come here, go in and search!" ”
With a cold face, Quan Yi pulled the two of them away, and the team of guards searched the meditation room of the three of them, but found nothing useful, and made a mess of the house.
"Princess, Your Majesty asks you all to go to the front hall to investigate, please!" Yu Xin's face was still smiling, but he felt that he didn't have the slightest kindness, and his disgusting face was exactly the same as in the previous life.
"Since it is the will of the father, there is no reason not to go!"
Quan Yi glanced at him, flicked his sleeves and walked in front, and Yu Xin beckoned his people to leave the Zen courtyard.
The emperor kept walking around at the top, the atmosphere was low, and he could see that Quan Duo was a little angry, and from time to time there were palace people in the room on the side who came out to pour water, and hurriedly entered the house.
Expedient slipped in quietly and stood at the back, not knowing whether the priest had seen her, or had deliberately waited for her, and immediately called her by name and told her to come forward.
Expedient hardened her head and walked through the crowd and stepped forward, she thought that Ji Fu and You Xin were each in charge of one place, but she didn't think that she didn't see Ji Fu's shadow along the way, not only was she suspicious, but at this moment she could only hold on to the doubts in her heart.
"Father!"
"I heard your maid say that you are not feeling well, but are you getting better now? Is the abdominal pain unbearable! Kwon asked, pointing at her.
Quan Duo was afraid that she and Quan Xun were the same, so he immediately pretended to be weak, "Father, isn't it that the symptoms of the fourth emperor brother and the son-in-law are the same?"
As soon as she asked, the people next to her took a cold breath, if it was expedient and did not lie, it meant that someone in Daotian Temple wanted to darken the imperial family, which had been premeditated for a long time.
Quan Duo dropped the bracelet in his hand, and the bracelet immediately exploded at the soles of everyone's feet, "Yu Xin, take someone to investigate, I want to know who is so bold to cause my son and daughter to be unfavorable." ”
On the side, Quan Feifei's eyes rolled a few times, and he quietly paced to the palace maid with a blue melon seed, and said something in her ear. Then, he kicked her out.
The secret guard beside Quan Duo immediately drew a knife and put it on her neck: "Who is it?" ”
"Slave Jiu'er, she is a person in the palace of the eldest princess, and when she went to help the princess boil medicine today, she saw ......"
She said and looked up at Expediency, who saw her face clearly, with a goose egg face, big eyes, and a small cherry mouth, but there was calculation in her eyes, and Expedient turned her head with a sneer.
"Tell me what you see!" The queen was a little impatient and snorted.
The slave maid saw that the girl in the palace of the seventh princess went to help the seventh princess cook and make a small cooking, and the slave and maid thought that the seventh princess was not full for lunch, so she asked her subordinates to do it. But in the evening, the seventh princess was sick and did not come to the dinner, which had to make the slave suspect that the princess's maidservant had done something. ”
Expedient, sneering in his heart, and framing him, they can't change some fresh tricks.
Quan Duo frowned, his eyes fell on Expediency, and asked with scrutiny, "Is there such a thing?" ”
Expedient bowed: "Yes." ”
After she admitted it, Quan Feifei sneered: "The seventh sister said that she was unwell, and she had the same unbearable abdominal pain as the four emperor brothers, but now the four emperor brothers are still inside, but the seventh sister is here with a good posture, it is difficult not to guess, plus this maidservant, the father has to have a hard guess!" ”
"Sixth sister, do you want to judge my sin now based on the words of the slave and maid?" Quan Feifei turned his head and looked at her back, but inexplicably mentioned the previous incident, Quan Feifei was a little panicked, and his eyes dodged.
"You, I'm just guessing"
"Father, if everyone present is so conjecturing, I'm afraid that the sons and daughters will already be convicted of countless crimes." With a crying voice, Quan Yiyan whispered to the emperor to complain.
"If my father and the others present doubt me, then I should ask my father to ask the imperial doctor to also diagnose and treat me, and it will be good to dispel everyone's suspicions."
Quan Duo frowned, and finally ordered to find the imperial doctor, the chief physician was a little fierce, with cold eyebrows, and it was not easy to get along with him.
Xiaohe on the side was so anxious that tears were about to come out, but the expedient himself was extremely calm, she recognized this person, it was from Ji Fu's side, it seemed that he had heard about Imperial Doctor Xu last time, so he replaced his own person.
After a long time, the imperial doctor got up and bowed to the emperor: "Your Majesty, the princess has signs of poisoning, but it seems that someone has used grass mist, lifur, etc. to force out some of the toxicity in the princess's body, but there are still some poisons remaining in the body, and the minister has to perform needles for the princess as soon as possible to force the rest of the toxins out of the body." ”
Quan Duo closed his eyes and opened them again, waving his hand weakly: "Go and treat the princess!" ”
Quan Feifei felt more and more that something was wrong, "Father, even if the seventh sister is poisoned, it doesn't mean that the person who poisoned her is not her, you see that she still understands these emergency principles......"
"Quan Feifei, shut up!" Concubine Shu stood up in time to stop her, and made her look at Quan Duo on the chair with a look, Quan Feifei understood, knew that he had broken his promise, and immediately silenced.
Quan Yi pulled the corners of his mouth, looked at her coldly, and then was helped down by Xiaohe in a weak state.
Soon after the expedient left, the imperial doctor who treated the right to inquire in the house also stared at the sweat on his head.
"Your Majesty, part of the toxin has been cleaned up, but the conditions of Daotian Temple are limited after all, and the minister can only apply a needle to temporarily seal the heart of the four highnesses and prevent the toxin from spreading, so the minister can only send the four highnesses back to the palace this morning."
"According to what you said, just do it, You Xin, you send someone to send Quan Xun and Imperial Doctor Li back to Beijing together, and make sure to ensure the safety of the two of them." Quan Duo waved his hand.
You Xin bowed his hand, "Your Majesty, rest assured, the minister will definitely protect the Fourth Highness and Imperial Doctor Li." ”
"Imperial Doctor Song!" Exceptacy looked at the man who had stuck the needle in his arm and called out to him.
Imperial Physician Song was stunned for a moment, and glanced at the door: "Does the princess recognize me?"
"Master Hou asked you to come, right?" Expedient asked.
"Yes, this injection is for you to treat stomach cold, you don't have to worry, there is no poison in your body." Imperial Physician Song shook his hand as he spoke.
Quan Yi's eyes narrowed, remembering that Ji Fu's shadow had not been seen tonight: "What about Master Hou?" Why wasn't he here in such a big battle tonight? ”
"Hou Ye deliberately drank a few more glasses of wine tonight, when His Majesty came, he had already confessed and left, I am afraid that he has fallen asleep in the meditation room at this moment, after all, he suffered a night last night, and His Majesty is not to blame much."
Expedient sneered, with such a big scene tonight, he was happy and leisurely, hiding and sleeping, and there was nothing he could do about him.
