Chapter 59: "The Cure of the Disease"
The snow is getting heavier and heavier, and the mountain roads are half snow and half ice.
It's very difficult to walk.
Especially when she wanted to share a ride with Jiang Huaiyin, Murong Xi felt that time passed very slowly.
Hurry up, when the group arrived at the city gate in the capital, it was already past the time when the gate was closed.
Ye Lan went to find the city guards with Jiang Huaiyin's token in her hand, and the city guards immediately let them go.
In fact, no matter whether you see the token or not, just looking at the noble carved rosewood carriage from a distance, the defenders are already ready to open the door.
Because of the curfew, the journey was unimpeded.
The carriage traveled from the city gate to the palace in a quarter of an hour.
Before the carriage could stop, Murong Xi rushed out.
"Princess! It's the princess! ”
Cining Palace's maid Lu Pothos was arranged by Mama Yu to wait at the palace gate, and when she saw the carriage, she was still suspicious, she recognized the owner of the carriage, but she didn't dare to think that the regent would come to visit the queen mother.
When she saw the purple figure clearly, her eyes lit up, and it was not in vain that she waited in the snow all day.
"Princess, you're here."
Green Pothos stepped forward and hurriedly explained: "The Queen Mother has woken up, and she knows that you will-"
Halfway through her words, a pure white figure suddenly broke into her sight.
"Slave and maid see the prince!" The pothos trembled in shock, and immediately blessed herself.
Jiang Huaiyin didn't squint and walked past the two, "This king is dealing with important matters in Yuquan Palace, and the princess has something to send someone to find this king." ”
The words were obviously said to Murong Xi.
The pothos hung her head, her expression was a little surprised, but she didn't dare to think too much.
Murong Xi was carried away by anxiety, and did not notice anything wrong, after nodding at Jiang Huaiyin, he looked at the green pothos, "Let's go, go to Cining Palace." ”
Pothos: "Yes." ”
The time has passed, and the queen mother has already gone to bed.
Xu was in a coma for two days and one night, and although he was not energetic, he did not feel sleepy.
Mama Yu extinguished all the lights, leaving only a red candle at the bedside, and comforted softly: "Queen Mother, it's so late, Queen Mother still don't wait any longer." ”
The Queen Mother shook her head and leaned on the goose down pillow, "The mourning family believes that she will come." Xu is heavy snow and delays the journey. ”
Mama Yu pursed her lips, she had just sent the emperor and empress away, she was so tired that her nerves were tense, not to mention the patient of the Queen Mother?
"Or, the Queen Mother, you rest first, if the princess comes, the old slave will wake up the Queen Mother again?"
The Queen Mother covered her mouth and coughed lightly, her tone was vain, "No need." ”
Seeing this, Mama Yu hurriedly went to pour a cup of warm water for the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother took a long sigh of relief, "Ji'er couldn't speak at the beginning, and she married to the palace for more than a year, and she made no progress with Lao Jiu. Although the mourning family didn't say it, they had already started to make a mistake in their hearts. ”
The Queen Mother's old face was full of exhaustion, but her eyes were full of joy.
"I never thought that in despair, Ji'er would give such a big surprise to the mourning family."
Mama Yu's tone was soft, and she folded the quilt for the queen mother, "The princess is a blessed one, and her life should not be extinguished." ”
"yes, I shouldn't die." The Queen Mother's tone was quiet, as if she was talking to Mama Yu, and she was also telling herself, "Seeking wealth and danger, if she can take on a big responsibility, the mourning family will be able to protect her for a lifetime." ”
After saying that, the Queen Mother raised her eyes and looked at the top of the tent, and her tone was resolute, "If she can't, then the mourning family will send her to see General Murong." ”
"With the princess's loyalty to the Queen Mother, the old slave feels that the Queen Mother's wish will come true." Mama Yu grew up watching Murong Ji.
In the past ten years, she has seen how the Queen Mother has treated Murong Xi well.
For Murong Xi's personality, Mama Yu knows more than the Queen Mother.
She firmly believes that Murong Xi will listen to the Queen Mother's words-
"Well, I hope so."
As the two were talking, there was a rush of footsteps outside the door.
Lu Luo was worried about disturbing the Queen Mother, so she stood at the door and called softly: "Mama Yu, the princess is here." ”
Mama Yu immediately glanced at the Queen Mother, and both of them saw joy in each other's eyes.
The Queen Mother gave a look, and Mama Yu understood and rushed to open the door.
The dim dormitory became bright again because of the appearance of a purple figure.
"Queen Mother, Sister-in-law is here!"
Stepping into the dormitory, I saw the Queen Mother in plain clothes half-leaning on the bed, more than ten years older than the noble form at the previous palace banquet.
Murong Xi's eyes were a little moist, she knew that this was the feelings of the original owner in her heart, so she couldn't control her trotting towards the Queen Mother, squatting on the edge of the bed, grabbing the Queen Mother's hand, with sobs in her voice.
"Queen Mother, how are you? Why did I suddenly fall ill? ”
Murong Xi's fingers seemed to be trembling nervously, but in fact, at the moment when she grabbed the palm of the Queen Mother's hand, her fingertips were also spying on the Queen Mother's pulse.
The Queen Mother smiled kindly, let Murong Xi grab her left hand, raised her right hand to brush the scattered green silk of Murong Xi, and tucked it behind her ear, "I can see my sister with my own eyes and hear my voice with my own ears, and the mourning family will be cured of any illness." ”
Murong Xi's expression froze on her face, and she glanced at the Queen Mother's wrist quietly, and then smiled innocently: "Xi'er is not a miracle medicine, how can she 'cure the disease' of the Queen Mother?" ”
She let go of the Queen Mother, got up and turned her head to ask Mama Yu, "Mama Yu, what did the people from the Tai Hospital say?" ”
Mama Yu: "The Queen Mother is strangely ill, and the cause has not been found out yet." The previous Queen Mother's peace veins were all handled by the head of the Fu Academy, and the head of the Xu Yuan was never managed. He said that he would have to go back and look at the case file before he could get the result. ”
Murong Xi frowned slightly, "Is there a detailed record of what the Queen Mother has eaten in the past few days?" ”
Mama Yu suddenly realized, and her misty eyes cleared, "Does the princess suspect that someone has done something to the Queen Mother?" ”
"Not sure yet." Murong Xi probed the pulse of the Queen Mother, her heart rhythm was irregular, and after all, she was old and had the possibility of high blood pressure.
However, in addition to emotional stimulation, other drugs can also be used to promote high blood pressure.
If the Queen Mother's blood pressure is excessive, then the person who poisoned only needs to use a shallow dose, which is enough to make the Queen Mother comply.
The difficulty is that that meager amount can't be found out afterwards.
"Hi-er." The Queen Mother said lightly, "It is impossible for anyone to do anything in the Mourning Palace." They are all people who have been serving in Cining Palace for many years, and the newcomers are not close to mourning at all, are you too worried? ”
The Queen Mother still has this confidence.
In the heyday of the palace fight, the concubines of the first emperor never hurt her at all.
Now that she has become the most noble queen mother in the harem, the former enemy is dead, crazy and crazy, and no one dares to challenge her status.
Besides, whether the emperor is a generation of Ming monarchs is not mentioned for the time being, but he is a real filial son.
In the harem, someone dared to beat the queen mother's idea, which touched the emperor's scales.
Only this is the safety hazard of the Queen Mother.
She wanted to cross the topic and beckoned Murong Xi to sit on the edge of the bed.
"Come here, let the mourning family take a good look at you."
Murong Xi stood still, always feeling that something was wrong.
"Queen Mother, it's better to be cautious in everything. It's better to let Ji'er go and ask Xu Yuanshou first, what happened to the Queen Mother? ”
