Chapter 80: Artificial
In Cining Palace, many concubines gathered.
When Murong Xi arrived, he heard the emperor's voice angrily scolding the empress.
"It's so late, and the queen is not afraid of disturbing the queen mother's rest?"
"Your Majesty, my sisters are also worried about the Queen Mother's body-" The queen got up from her chair in a panic and walked towards the emperor, her eyes scanning a circle of crying and red-eyed concubines, especially Concubine Li, who was sitting quietly in the corner, for a moment longer.
The emperor blushed, "Xu Yuanshou said, the queen mother's condition should not be noisy, you all go back." β
"Yes." Concubine Li was the first to get up and said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, please also take care of the dragon body, and the concubine will retire." β
All the concubines responded and said goodbye to the emperor and empress one after another.
Where did they come to Cining Palace to worry about the Queen Mother? It wasn't the queen who ordered to notify the palaces that the queen mother was seriously ill again!
Although she did not directly invite the concubines to Cining Palace together, the queen's thoughts were already clear.
came, at most, advance and retreat with the queen, and listen to His Majesty's reprimand.
If you don't come, then the queen will find trouble in the future, but it will not be as simple as a reprimand!
Concubine Li turned her head and left, and happened to meet Murong Xi.
Concubine Li smiled lightly, "The princess is here, Your Majesty has been waiting for a long time, the princess please." β
Murong Xi was slightly blessed by several concubines, and there were many people, so it was not good to talk to Concubine Li about her head disease, and after nodding, she turned around and went to the palace.
"Murong Xi see Your Majesty, see the Queen Mother."
When the queen was hesitating to leave, she heard Murong Xi's voice, and she was overjoyed and greeted her.
"You're finally here, and the queen mother has been talking about you."
The emperor stood with his hands in his hands and looked at Murong Xi with cold eyes.
In the past, when Murong Xi was not married to Jiang Huaiyin, the two had met several times, but because Murong Xi was a mute and could please the Queen Mother, the emperor never took people seriously.
It's a different story today.
Murong Xi is in the best twenty-eight years of a woman's life, her lips are moving frequently, and her voice is like a bell, which is pleasant to the ear.
is also a man, or a son of heaven with 3,000 beauties, and is faintly attracted by her.
Presumably, Jiang Huaiyin's downfall is just around the corner!
The emperor put away his anger and said lightly to Murong Xi: "The princess is flat, she hasn't comforted the princess for a long time, how is the princess lately?" β
Murong Xi wanted to go in to see the Queen Mother, but she didn't dare to shut up the emperor directly, and answered the emperor's question obediently.
"Back to Your Majesty, everything is fine."
"I just came out of the dormitory, the Queen Mother didn't fall asleep, the princess can still go in time now, maybe the Queen Mother will be in a good mood after seeing the princess, and she can sleep peacefully."
Fortunately, the emperor didn't mean to keep Murong Xi more, but only looked at her deeply for a long time, and then left with his sleeves brushed up.
The emperor left, and the queen didn't stay long.
After admonishing Murong Xi a few times, he chased the emperor to leave with the support of the palace maid.
Murong Xi secretly breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly rushed to the dormitory.
In the dormitory, the sound of rapid coughing can be heard clearly outside the door.
Murong Ji knocked lightly on the door, "Queen Mother, Ji'er is here." β
The coughing sound subsided, and after waiting for a while, the door of the hall opened from the inside, and Mama Yu stretched out her hand to invite Murong Xi in.
"Princess, the Queen Mother is waiting for you."
A burst of spicy medicinal gas came to her face, and Murong Ji frowned tightly and walked to the bed.
"Queen Mother, how are you?"
The queen was pale, and even weaker than when she had been violently ill.
Facing Murong Xi's concern, the Queen Mother still shook her head, reached out and stroked her hand, "The mourning family is fine, I just took medicine, and I am much better." β
Murong Xi held the Queen Mother's hand in the palm of her hand, and secretly went to probe the Queen Mother's pulse, her brows furrowed deeper and deeper.
"How so? Auntie was much better when she leftβ"
"All the entrances and personal things are checked before they are used, but the head of the Xu Yuan said that it has been determined that it is man-made, and I really don't understand what the problem is!" Mama Yu bit her lip in annoyance and explained to Murong Xi.
The Queen Mother tugged at the corners of her lips and comforted Murong Xi: "Maybe the mourning family is really old." "It's so old that anyone can hurt himself by means of inferiority, and he can't find out the truth!
"That's not right." Murong Xi withdrew her hand and looked at all the furnishings in the dormitory with sharp eyes.
"Mama Yu, don't move any of the furnishings in the dormitory." Turning around, he said to the Queen Mother: "Queen Mother, do you want to change to a dormitory to recuperate first?" β
The Queen Mother's eyes flickered, "Do you suspect that the problem is here?" β
"It's not a suspicion, it's a certainty!" Murong Xi slowed down, walked aimlessly in the dormitory, sorted out the thoughts in his mind, and said, "Since the things at the entrance have been tested for poison in advance, it is very likely that there is a problem with the things used. β
She walked over to the makeup dowry, lifted a comb and sniffed it under her nose, and put it down.
picked up another golden phoenix and looked at it.
"There are some things, in this Cining Palace, only the Queen Mother can use them, this is a loophole!"
Murong Xi believed her guess more and more.
This time, the pulse of the Queen Mother, because she came early, the residual poison in her body was not dissipated.
Presumably, Xu Yuan Shou also discovered the toxins in the Queen Mother's body, so he dared to be so sure that it was artificial.
Murong Ji hurriedly said: "No, Mama Yu, arrange for the Queen Mother to leave this dormitory as soon as possible." β
"This-" Mama Yu thought, but the dormitory is where the Queen Mother has been living since she was promoted to the queen.
Even if it is summer or winter hunting, the Queen Mother brings some things that are usually used because she recognizes the bed.
After living for decades, how can you say that you can change it?
Mama Yu looked at the Queen Mother in embarrassment, not knowing how to persuade her.
The Queen Mother had a calm face, her hands were tightly grasping the edge of the bed, and her eyes were getting colder and colder.
"Okay, Yurong, do what Ji'er says. The mourning family wants to see if it is the unjust souls in the underground who have come to find the mourning family, or which living person is too long! β
She lifted the covers, trying to grab the cloak.
Murong Xi took a quick step, untied the cloak on his body, and put it on for the Queen Mother.
"Don't touch the things here again, the Queen Mother, you will take a look first, and use Ji'er's first."
The Queen Mother lowered her head and looked at the moon-white cloak, which was the material of Shu brocade, and it was a little familiar.
She thought about it, the corners of her lips slowly hooked, and she nodded at Murong Xi, "It's not early tonight, you go back to the Rujin Hall first, and rest for one night." β
Murong Xi shook her head firmly, and helped the Queen Mother to the door with Mama Yu, "Some things will evaporate over time, the Queen Mother doesn't have to worry about Xi'er, Xi'er will find the head of the courtyard, even if the dormitory is turned upside down tonight, you have to find out the real answer!" β
The Queen Mother was stunned, then laughed instead, followed by a few violent coughs.
Murong Xi patted the Queen Mother's back, "The Queen Mother can rest assured, since there is a direction, it will be a matter of time before the truth is revealed." β
"Okay, ahem." The Queen Mother covered her mouth and coughed lightly, tightening the cloak on her body, "The mourning family went first." β
Seeing off the Queen Mother, Murong Xi ordered someone to go to the Tai Hospital to ask for the head of the hospital.
He stood in the empty dormitory and began to search inch by inch.
