Chapter 101: Restoration
"!" The ladies gathered around in surprise.
"Shhhhhh Chu Duchen motioned for everyone to be silent, "The imperial sister-in-law is sick, don't wake her up."
Chu Duchen sat on the edge of the couch, was silent for a moment, and then leaned over and said in Chu Wanxiang's ear, "Wanxiang, Wanxiang, you have to cheer up, don't run away anymore."
With that, he stood up, withdrew softly, and closed the door.
Chu Wanqing hurriedly chased out: "Brother Huang! Have you found the murderer?"
Chu Duchen shook his head, "Those assassins have extraordinary martial arts, and we can tell from the shape and bloodstains of the corpses that they all died from poisoned arrows. This poisoned arrow is extremely powerful and has a paralyzing effect, which is impossible to use with an ordinary bow and crossbow."
Chu Wanqing frowned: "Who could that be?"
"Not found out yet." Chu Duchen said, "The imperial sister-in-law is in a special situation now, and when she recovers, we will investigate in detail."
Chu Wanqing gritted her teeth: "This murderer is so vicious, he actually murdered my sister! If I know who it is, I will not tolerate it!"
Chu Duchen frowned, looking at her gaze revealing hidden anger: "Concubine Qing, you are a princess, don't be arrogant and willful."
"I see, Imperial Brother." Chu Wanqing lowered her eyes, "Then I'll take my leave."
Chu Duchen nodded, "Go ahead."
Chu Wanqingfu saluted and left with the maid.
The side hall next door.
The Jiang family was eating, and when they saw Chu Duchen walking in, they immediately got up and saluted him: "The concubine sees the prince."
Chu Duchen smiled and bowed: "Aunt Huang, please get up, the weather is good today, let's chat."
Jiang replied, "Thank you, Prince."
Chu Duchen walked to the chair and sat down, looking at the table, "Where is Uncle Huang?"
"He went to visit the emperor." Jiang replied, "The concubine is preparing to go to see the emperor."
"What's wrong with Uncle Huang?" Chu Duchen asked with concern.
"Last night, the emperor suddenly vomited blood and fainted, which frightened the concubines and His Majesty." Jiang sighed, "Fortunately, the imperial doctor treated him in time, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable."
Chu Duchen's eyebrows were twisted into Sichuan characters.
Jiang continued: "The imperial doctor checked the pulse and said that the emperor was poisoned, and the poison was violent, and he needed to recuperate for a period of time."
"I see." Chu Duchen said, "Aunt Huang, I'll come to visit Uncle Huang another day."
"Prince Lao misses it, and the concubine has thanked His Majesty." Jiang saluted gratefully.
"Aunt Huang doesn't have to be polite." Chu Duchen smiled, walked out of the door, and watched the flowers bloom in the courtyard.
In late spring and early summer, a hundred flowers compete for beauty, and the beautiful scenery is pleasing to the eye.
He stood for a long time, then turned to leave.
When he returned to Qianning Palace, it was almost dusk, and the afterglow of the setting sun spread over the entire palace, which was brilliant and magnificent.
Chu Mochen sat behind the imperial case and reviewed the chapters.
"Father." Chu Mochen came in and saluted.
"What?" Chu Mochen raised his head and saw his son's thoughtful appearance, "Something worried?"
Chu Mochen hesitated for a moment and said, "Father, the imperial sister-in-law has suffered from the wind and cold, and the high fever has not gone away for several days, can you cure her?"
"Oh, your sister-in-law is sick?" Chu Mochen put down his pen, walked to the soft couch, and touched Chu Wanxiang's forehead, "It's really a little hot, why haven't you summoned the imperial doctor these days?"
"The concubine was afraid that the imperial doctor would diagnose that the imperial sister-in-law was pretending to be sick, so she hid it." Chu Wanqing said.
Chu Mochen pondered for a moment and said, "Brother Huang is already investigating this matter thoroughly, you can relax." After a pause, he instructed Imperial Physician Lin, "You go and take a look, prescribe some medicinal food to make up for the imperial concubine's body, she has been working hard recently."
"Wechen obeys." Imperial Physician Lin received the order and left the dormitory with his apprentice.
Chu Mochen helped Chu Wanxiang up, tucked the corners of the quilt for her, and said softly, "Wanxiang, be obedient, don't run around."
Chu Wanxiang opened her eyes and looked at him in a daze for a while, and then fell asleep again.
Chu Mochen stroked her cold arm, his eyes were dark, and he turned around and walked out of the dormitory to find Imperial Doctor Lin.
Chu Wanqing followed
Come, and ask in a low voice, "Brother, how is the imperial sister-in-law?"
"The imperial sister-in-law is infected with the wind and cold, and she needs to drink some medicinal food." Chu Mochen glanced at Jiang Qiyun lightly, "Mother is old, don't interfere in the affairs of the imperial sister-in-law."
"Sister Chen, I know." Jiang Qiyun responded obediently.
Chu Mochen retracted his gaze and left directly.
As soon as Imperial Doctor Lin returned, he hurried over again.
"What did the emperor say?" Chu Mochen asked.
Imperial Physician Lin pondered the words: "The emperor's illness is not serious, it is only caused by depression, so he can only recuperate slowly, and there is no major problem. As for the mother's illness......
He paused slightly, looked at Chu Mochen and said, "Forgive the old minister for being stupid, Niangniang has no signs of poisoning."
When Chu Duchen heard this, his face became ugly, his fists clenched, and he said in a deep voice, "I know."
Chu Wanfeng came back and saw that Chu Mochen and Chu Duchen were there.
Chu Mochen glanced at him: "The matter of the imperial sister-in-law will be handed over to the imperial brother, you go and rest."
Chu Duchen nodded, turned around and left, his steps heavy.
"You stay, this palace has something to talk to you." Chu Duchen stopped him, his tone was calm, but his majesty was revealed.
Chu Duchen stopped.
"I've heard that you've been to the Longevity Palace?"
Chu Duchen nodded: "Yes, Erchen went to visit the Queen Mother."
Chu Mochen snorted coldly, "You really don't know what's wrong with the imperial sister-in-law?"
Chu Duchen was silent, and after a while, he said, "Erchen is guilty!"
Chu Mochen raised his eyebrows: "Where are you guilty?"
"The retainers went to find the imperial sister-in-law privately, and they shouldn't have brought the imperial sister-in-law to see you and the queen mother."
"Is there anything else going on, Brother Huang? If not, the sons will retire first."
"Wait." Chu Mochen called out to him, "How is your imperial sister-in-law?"
"It's a lot better."
"Now that you're fine, don't worry. The royal brother believes that the imperial sister-in-law will be able to get through it."
Chu Duchen said respectfully, "Brother Xie Huang is compassionate!"
"Hmm."
Chu Duchen left the Qianning Palace, Chu Mochen sat alone for a moment, and suddenly frowned: "I don't like the temper of the imperial sister-in-law. You go and talk to the queen and ask her not to bully the imperial sister-in-law."
"Minions obey." Zhang Dehai bowed in response, muttering in his heart that the emperor still cherishes the queen.
"In addition, you send two people to guard outside the Fengyi Palace, if the queen dares to hurt the imperial sister-in-law in the slightest, she will be killed." Chu Mochen said.
Zhang Dehai was surprised: "Your Majesty, in case the queen doesn't have ......."
"Then use the baby in her womb to die."
Zhang Dehai shuddered and hurriedly said, "Yes!"
Jiang Qiyun lay in bed for several days, and finally recovered and recovered a lot.
This morning, after she woke up, ate something, and was about to go out to bask in the sun, she heard a sound of footsteps, and then the curtain was lifted, and Chu Mohan came in with a bowl of soup and medicine.
Jiang Qiyun immediately sat up and greeted him: "The concubine asks the emperor for peace."
Chu Mohan waved his hand to signal her to sit down, and took out a silver needle and pricked it on the acupuncture point on her left leg.
Jiang Qiyun looked down at his fingers, and the silver needle seemed to be faintly glowing with purple light. She couldn't help but think of the scene where he applied the needle last night, panicked, and hurriedly looked away.
