Li Jinzhi was busy all morning, and only arrived at Zhuyuan at noon and told Mei Xue about the situation outside.

The crown princess is indeed missing, not only Yu Linwei, but even the internal guards have all been dispatched, but there is still no trace of it.

The crown princess and Mama Jiang seemed to have disappeared out of thin air.

"There must be someone to assist the princess and sister-in-law, and they have been planning for a long time.

But no matter what, the most important thing is that she can be safe, and if she continues to survive like this in the capital, she will have an accident sooner or later. ”

Li Jinzhi took Li Mingze from Mei Xue's arms as he spoke.

Mei Xue nodded and said to Li Jinzhi that she was going to enter the palace to see the Empress Dowager Jing'an.

As for Empress Shen, knowing about this, her condition will definitely worsen.

Thinking of this, Mei Xue smiled coldly in her heart.

Compared to the condensed atmosphere in the palace, the Cining palace is much better.

The Empress Dowager Jing'an was worshipping the Buddha, and Princess Chenyang was waiting in the small room outside the Buddha hall.

Seeing Mei Xue enter the door, she smiled and beckoned, motioning for Mei Xue to sit down beside her.

"You don't have to worry, the queen mother can think about it, and she went to the small garden just now."

Princess Chenyang shook Mei Xue's hand, quietly glanced at the door of the Buddha hall and whispered:

"This palace thinks the same as the queen mother, as long as the crown princess can get better, it will be the same wherever she goes.

Over the years, she has suffered a lot, and her mother has always been uneasy.

It's just that he was so angry that it was said that he vomited several mouthfuls of blood immediately. ”

Mei Xue knew who Princess Chenyang was talking about, so she didn't speak, only nodded.

Empress Shen has been arbitrary for several years, and even Emperor Mingde can't restrain her, and now she is suddenly slapped in the face, how can she not be like thunder?

It's just that because he was sick, he couldn't do a lot of things, so he vomited blood.

As a result, the disease will only progress faster and be more reasonable.

Knowing that the Empress Dowager Jing'an was fine, Mei Xue didn't stay long, and left medicine for Princess Chenyang and left the main hall.

But I met Yun'er in the corridor outside.

Yun'er's face was already much better, and as soon as she saw Mei Xue, she quickly walked in front of her and knelt down and said:

"Slave and maid, thank you for saving the girl, the medicine you let people send, the slave and maid use it every day, the county lord said that when the slave's face is better, he will take the slave and maid when he goes out in the future."

Mei Xue bent down to help Yun'er up, looked at her face carefully and said:

"The wound is recovering well, and there will definitely be no scars, don't be afraid."

He gently stroked Yun'er's shoulder and said:

"The county lord is an anxious person, but he is kind-hearted, you follow her, you have to think more about her in everything, if you can't make up your mind, go to the mother and the queen mother as soon as possible, don't let the county lord suffer."

Yun'er nodded again and again, and told Mei Xue that the county lord of Changle had gone out of the palace early in the morning:

"The county lord said that Lord Shen must be very busy now, and she is going to help."

Mei Xue couldn't help laughing, shook Yun'er's hand and walked out of Cining Palace.

In the palace road, dozens of chamberlains lined up in a line, carrying various utensils and walking forward.

An Jiang led the way in front of him with Buddha Chen, and when he saw Mei Xue, he stopped, and said with a smile:

"Did Miss Mei come to the palace to see the princess and the queen mother?

Alas, the old slave didn't teach his apprentices well, and the small group of people angered His Majesty early in the morning, and even if people were killed by the rod, they were so angry that His Majesty smashed a lot of things, so shouldn't he hurry up and replace them? ”

When her eyes met, Mei Xue already understood the meaning of An Jiang's words.

After a few polite words of farewell, Mei Xue turned around and looked at An Jiang, who was staggering slightly, and pursed her lips sadly.

It was only half a month's work, and An Jiang boiled all his hair white.

How deep must the pain and hatred be in his heart?

In the evening, Li Jinzhi asked Gao Yuan to go to Zhuyuan to invite Mei Xue, saying that Shen Qingyang had come over.

Mei Xue thought for a while, wrapped Li Mingze in a thick quilt, and then took him to the outer courtyard with him.

Shen Qingyang, who had been busy all day, was not tired, but his face became more and more ugly.

Li Mingze was crying all the way, and it wasn't until Li Jinzhi took him into his arms that he finally quieted down and soon fell asleep.

Shen Qingyang never spoke, only looked at Li Mingze silently, and waited for Li Mingze to fall asleep before he said in a deep voice:

"There is a secret passage under the bed in the Princess's bedroom that leads to a merchant house that deals in seafood, but the merchant house is empty.

I asked my soldiers to seal both ends of the tunnel, so that no abnormalities would be discovered. ”

As he spoke, Shen Qingyang took out a piece of jade forbidden from his sleeve and put it on the table and said:

"This forbidden step was left on the table in the bedroom, I remember that it was given to the crown princess before the prince's wedding, and he studied it for a long time with the master of the internal affairs office, and carved it out by himself."

Mei Xue's nose was sore, and she hurriedly twisted her face to the side.

Shen Qingyang stood up, walked to Li Jinzhi's side, looked at Li Mingze silently for a while, didn't speak again, turned around and threw himself into the night.

Just after the New Year, Guo Yunqing, the envoy of the Tai Hospital, came to the Shu Palace, asking to see Mei Xue, Mei Xue knew it in her heart, and went straight to the flower hall in the outer courtyard.

Guo Yunqing's face was full of sadness, and he said to Li Jinzhi and Mei Xue:

"The queen mother only occasionally felt cold, and she had used the medicine very carefully, but somehow, she started to have a fever later, and she couldn't be cured over and over again.

Niangniang was anxious, so she often lost her temper, and several colleagues in the hospital had already eaten melons, and she didn't know when it would come to an end. ”

As he spoke, Guo Yunqing looked at Mei Xue with pleading eyes.

Mei Xue nodded calmly and said:

"If the wind and cold invade the body, if it does not heal, the inflammation will go down to the lungs, and there will be repeated fever."

"Then Miss Mei has a good way? Xiaguan and the others are really helpless. ”

As Guo Yunqing spoke, he got up first and gave Mei Xue a salute.

Mei Xue got up and asked Guo Yunqing to sit down, and after thinking about it, she said:

"Niangniang's jade body is precious, and I am young and have no experience, so I don't dare to speak directly.

Let's wait a little longer, if one day my mother is willing to let me go to check the pulse, I will do my best. ”

Guo Yunqing was dumbfounded, looked at Li Jinzhi and Mei Xue, and couldn't speak anymore.

It's really strange, isn't the queen mother very good to Miss Mei in the past day? Why did you insist on refusing to let Miss Mei see a doctor after she was sick this time?

And looking at the attitude of Miss Mei and the prince of Shu, they obviously don't want to take the initiative to meddle in this matter.

What the hell is going on?

After Guo Yunqing left disappointed, Li Jinzhi changed a cup of hot tea and handed it to Mei Xue and asked:

"How much time does she have left?"

"Before the beginning of summer, she will definitely die."

Mei Xue said lightly, bowed her head and took a sip of tea.

Li Jinzhi stood up, walked a few steps with his hands behind his back and said:

"With her person, the more times like this, the crazier she becomes."

Mei Xue met Li Jinzhi's gaze and nodded silently.

Even if she didn't know that she was terminally ill, Empress Shen would definitely prepare for the worst.

And the first to bear the brunt of the bad luck are naturally those who are a threat to Li Jinyu.

Sure enough, within a few days, Song Zhijie got the news: the waste concubine Qiao slipped in the cold palace, and both mother and son died; The fourth prince, Li Jinhong, went to Kunning Palace to serve the sick, but he openly molested the palace maid and was punished by Emperor Mingde to go to the imperial mausoleum to think about it.

Song Zhijie smiled after speaking:

"The queen's methods are still as powerful as ever."

Mei Xue smiled and said lightly:

"Actually, Your Majesty has been taking the pill for a long time, even if Qiao's can give birth smoothly, the child will not be healthy, and the queen mother does not need to be so anxious."

Li Jinzhi looked out the window and said softly:

"Although the four princes were punished, Concubine Shu still serves in Zhaoyang Hall every day, so for the imperial brother, the situation is still not optimistic."

Since Empress Shen fell ill, Concubine Shu no longer relied on Liu Zhaoyi, but began to act openly.

Song Zhijie nodded and said:

"According to the news from his subordinates, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should be making moves in the next few days."

However, the result came faster than Song Zhijie predicted, and only one day later, the news of the new crown princess came out in the palace, and the candidate for the new concubine was naturally Xie Danqin.

In the afternoon of that day, Mei Xue entered the palace as usual to deliver medicine and pulse diagnosis to Princess Chenyang, and the lord of Changle County entered the dormitory with a snort and said:

"The princess and sister-in-law have only been lost for a few days, and their life and death are unknown, so they can't wait?"

Princess Chenyang sighed, told the county lord of Changle to be quiet, and said to Mei Xue:

"Concubine Xie...... No...... Now she should be called the crown princess, she is three months pregnant, and several imperial doctors have diagnosed that it is twins, and they are male fetuses.

When the royal brother suddenly heard the good news, he agreed to the queen's request and ordered her to be canonized. ”

Mei Xue nodded, lowered her eyebrows and didn't speak.

Not to mention the new crown princess, according to Queen Shen's wishes for many years, it is best that Li Jinyu can succeed to the throne now, and she can also be promoted to the queen mother.
