"Concubine Hui, Mo Chou's kneeling position should not be where you stand." The queen lowered her face and scolded, "Everyone has their own territory, and people and ghosts still have different paths, how can concubines and concubines stand together?" ”

Zhen Huan also persuaded her repeatedly, but Shen Meizhuang was unmoved: "Queen Mother, even if you leave the palace, you shouldn't suffer physical and verbal humiliation." She directly tore off the queen's hypocritical mask, and almost threw the four words "falling into the well" on the queen's face.

The queen's face stiffened for a moment, and after a while she said: "The Buddhists pay attention to peace of mind, Hui Concubine, you are impatient today, and you can no longer visit the Buddha statue, so you can kneel here and think carefully." ”

Shen Meizhuang knelt down without saying a word, her back was straight, but she bent down two inches to take Zhen Huan's hand, just like when Concubine Dunsu was embarrassed and Zhen Huan punished her for kneeling in Yikun Palace, she was softly relieved: "Huan'er, I will accompany you." ”

Zhen Huan's tears rained down and held Shen Meizhuang's hand tightly.

Weiyang Palace is lit up like day, and the sound of children reading is heard loudly.

"Human spiders, in nature, are similar, but the play is far away......" An Kang held a copy of the "Three Character Classic" and read it in pieces, which made the emperor laugh.

He hugged Ankang, put it in his arms and rubbed it, and then called her word by word: "At the beginning of people, nature is good, sex is similar, and Xi is far away......"

The sixth elder brother sat on the side and listened carefully, An Lingrong hugged Haoyue and coaxed, looking at the emperor and An Kang with gentle eyebrows, and suddenly saw Cuiyin walking in and standing outside the hall with a look of embarrassment, and couldn't help but ask softly, "What's wrong?" ”

"Niangniang, just now Liyi came over and said that she was vomiting blood as usual, and she wanted to ask Imperial Doctor Zhou to come and take a look." After Cui Yin came in and saluted the emperor, she deliberately attached her voice to An Lingrong's ear and said.

"How can it be so serious? Didn't Imperial Doctor Zhang say when he came to see it yesterday that it was just an ordinary wind chill? An Lingrong was taken aback and raised his voice, "Hurry up, take the warrant of the palace, and go to the Tai Hospital to ask for Imperial Doctor Zhou." ”

"What's going on?" The emperor naturally heard it, raised his head and asked.

An Lingrong handed Haoyue to the nurse, let her carry her to sleep, and then said to the emperor: "At dinner time yesterday, Shun was saying that he had a terrible headache, and he went back to lie down without eating two bites, who knew that he suddenly had a high fever at night, and last night the hospital was on duty with Imperial Doctor Zhang, so he invited him to come over and take a look, only to say that it was a cold wind, and he went back after prescribing some medicine." When the concubine went to see Shun Chang this morning, she was already too sick to get out of bed, and just now Cuiyin said that Shun Chang was vomiting blood, and wanted to ask Imperial Doctor Zhou to take a look. "Zhou Nan is now the deputy director of the Tai Hospital, and the low-ranking concubines still don't want him.

The emperor raised his eyebrows, motioned for Cuiyin to invite quickly, and then got up: "Okay, why are you so sick all of a sudden?" I'll take a look. ”

The Zichun Pavilion was filled with a strong smell of medicine, mixed with a faint smell of blood, and there was a panicked cry from Liyi: "Little master, little master, how can this be good!" ”

An Lingrong walked two steps quickly and pushed open the door, and when he saw his face, which was so white that there was no trace of blood, he was suddenly shocked that his voice changed tone: "What's the matter?" Wasn't it okay yesterday! ”

Li Yi knelt on the edge of the bed and wiped her tears, and said while crying: "Concubine Rong Niangniang Wan'an." Last night the little master was fine, but there was a little headache, in the middle of the night people were a little confused, the slave touched the little master's forehead, a piece of piping hot, it was useless to take the medicine prescribed by Imperial Doctor Zhang, this morning the little master was sober, but only shouted that he had a headache, like being pricked by a needle...... "She sobbed, "It hurt for a while before stopping, and then, the little master vomited blood." ”

Shun Chang is the new favorite, the emperor's freshness has not faded, seeing that she is already seriously ill and dying, I can't help but be angry in my heart: "How do you all take care of Shun Changzai?" ”

Riyi immediately kowtowed and pleaded guilty, crying silently.

At this time, Zhou Nan walked in with a medicine box, his forehead was covered with a thin layer of sweat, and he was only halfway through the salute, when he was urged by the emperor to see Shun Changzai, he hurriedly responded: "Yes." When he was halfway up, he raised his eyes and quietly glanced at An Lingrong.

An Lingrong lowered his eyes and frowned, unable to see half of his emotions, only raised his handkerchief and put it on the tip of his nose to cover it, and coughed lightly as if he was uncomfortable.

Zhou Nan took out a silk handkerchief and put it on Shun Chang's wrist, gently put his three fingers together, and checked the pulse carefully and carefully, the more he touched it, the more strange he felt, and his brows furrowed tightly. After a long time, he knelt down to the emperor with a panicked face and pleaded guilty: "Weichen is incompetent, he can't diagnose what disease Shun Changzai has, and he asks the emperor to forgive him." ”

"Useless." The emperor scolded him coldly, turned his head to look at Su Peisheng, "Go and invite Imperial Doctor Wen to come." ”

Su Peisheng hurriedly answered.

Shun Chang opened his eyes in a trance, and saw An Lingrong coming, just like a lost child seeing his relatives, and tears of grievance instantly poured out: "Niangniang, the concubine hurts so much......"

"The Imperial Doctor is coming soon, bear with me." An Lingrong sat down on the edge of the bed, held her hand, and comforted softly, "What kind of pain is it, you told the palace, Imperial Doctor Zhou didn't see the reason for the pulse for a long time, you can talk about it carefully, maybe you can know a thing or two." ”

Shun Chang gasped weakly: "Concubine, I have a terrible headache...... My heart hurts, too, like a needle prick, it hurts...... Yes! ”

As she spoke, she rolled on the bed with her chest covered, letting out one wail after another, An Lingrong was startled, and was hugged by the emperor and hid to the side, seeing that Shun was in great pain, after a few back and forth, she spurted out a mouthful of blood, and her body stiffened and fell back to the bed, making a dull sound, and the person also passed out.

Zhou Nan hurriedly stepped forward to prick the needle, and Liyi cried and crawled over to wipe Shun Chang's blood.

An Lingrong was so frightened that his whole body trembled, clutching the emperor's shirt tightly, and his voice stumbled: "The emperor, the emperor, is it difficult to be here as usual, is there something strange or strange?" ”

The emperor squinted, the aura around him suddenly became dangerous, and he was silent for a long time before he asked, "Shun Chang has had any conflicts with anyone recently?" ”

An Lingrong was slightly stunned: "Shun is always cold, he never cares about gains and losses, and he won't argue with others......" She paused slightly, and suddenly remembered, "When I asked the queen mother to say goodbye a few days ago, I argued with the noble people of Jin, and it was not a big deal, why did the emperor suddenly ask about this?" ”

Jin nobles, Tong family.

"It's okay, I'll just ask." The emperor already had doubts in his heart, but he didn't want to say more, his eyes flashed slightly, and he told Zhou Nan to take care of it.

An Lingrong's expression was slightly cold, and he quietly looked away, looked around and asked, "Where is Qin'er?" Why didn't she serve by Shun Chang's side? ”

"Back to Niangniang, Qin'er was sick two days ago, and the little master allowed her to rest for a few days." Rika replied.

An Lingrong frowned: "The master is sick, she is a slave and maid who treats Qiao like this, can she treat herself as a young lady of the official family?" Cuiyin, go and call her over. ”

"Yes." Cuiyin bowed and walked out instead.

Zhou Nan was still applying needles, but he didn't see any signs of waking up, and even An Lingrong couldn't help but scold him.

finally waited for Wen Shichu to come, however, after he diagnosed the pulse, he also looked strange, and replied: "Back to the emperor, Niangniang, there is nothing abnormal in the pulse of Shun Chang, but it is just an occasional cold, just raise it for a while, it shouldn't be ......" He and Zhou Nan glanced at each other, and then said, "It shouldn't be like this." ”

"You mean you're faking illness?" An Lingrong opened her mouth, she glanced at her face and couldn't see the extreme Shun Chang, frowned and said, "Tell me, how do you pretend to be able to pretend to be in such a coma vomiting blood?" Isn't it really poisoning or something? ”

Wen Shichu couldn't, so he could only say: "Weichen is incompetent." ”

"Your Majesty, Weichen has a guess, I don't know whether to say it or not." Zhou Nan leaned over and spoke, his tone hesitant.

"You say." The emperor impatiently shook the string of beads in his hand.

Zhou Nan took a deep breath and buried his head lower: "As usual, since it is not poisoning or serious illness, it is very likely to be evil." ”

The air in the hall suddenly condensed to freezing point, An Lingrong glanced at the emperor's face, and immediately scolded: "Bold! ”

"Wechen should be damned." Zhou Nan's voice tightened, and he immediately opened his mouth to admit his mistake.

The emperor's body was a little colder, he was silent for a long time, so long that An Lingrong thought that the emperor would not speak again, and he suddenly asked: "Where did Shun Chang go before he got sick?" ”

Liyi hurriedly replied: "The little lord doesn't like to go out, the day before he got sick, he went to the Baohua Hall to worship Guanyin Niangniang, in order to pray for the early pregnancy of the emperor's heir, the master of the Baohua Hall said that if the red paper with the eight characters of the birthday written on it was burned after two hours of incense, it would be more effective, and the little master did it." Going forward, it was the time in the New Year that I took a walk in the Imperial Garden. ”

"The emperor knows that Shun is always there, she really doesn't like to go out, except for asking the queen for peace on weekdays, she basically stays in Zichun Pavilion, either reading or painting, and the concubines sometimes ridicule her for living like an old lady at a young age." An Lingrong smiled slightly, and then put on a sad face, "Liyi said that Shun Chang was going to the imperial garden to relax in the first month, and the concubine remembered that the noble Jin seemed to be in the palm of her mouth because Shun Chang accidentally bumped into her, and after being known by the queen, she was also punished for kneeling Yonghe Gong Si. ”

"Yes, Concubine Rong said exactly that." Rika nodded and said.

It's Jin Guiren again.

The emperor almost guessed some eyebrows, he raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows: "Su Peisheng, go to Xuanjin and come over." ”

"Yes." Su Peisheng left in response.

Not long after Su Peisheng left, there was a noise outside the door, Cuiyin's angry scolding and Qin'er's trembling voice begging for mercy were mixed together, and the curtain finally opened the curtain on this scene.

"Niangniang, the slave found this in Qin'er's room!" Cuiyin angrily pushed open the door and walked in, followed by Qin'er, who was disheveled and had no time to take care of, and knelt on the ground with weak legs after coming in.

An Lingrong's eyes froze.

The rag doll was tied with long and short silver needles, and the eight characters of birth were written on it with cinnabar, like Yin Yin's bloodstains.

Witchcraft!

"This matter is very important, the concubines dare not make arbitrary decisions, and ask the emperor to make a holy judgment." An Lingrong gathered his clothes and knelt down towards the emperor.

The emperor raised his hand, and Cuiyin hurriedly presented the things to Xiao Xiazi, who then handed them to the emperor.

"You, come and take a look, but your little master's generation of eight characters?" The emperor pointed to Liyi and came to look at it, and after getting her affirmative answer, his face sank completely, "Come on, detain this cheap maid!" ”

"The emperor spares his life!" Qin'er was so frightened that she trembled, begging for mercy one after another, her eyes rolled around, she crawled to An Lingrong's side with her hands and feet, crying and shouting, "Niangniang save the slave and maid, the slave and maid are all doing this according to Niangniang's instructions!" ”

An Lingrong's face changed suddenly, and he looked back at her suddenly: "What nonsense are you talking about?!" She looked at the emperor with trembling heart, and was about to say something, but saw the emperor slowly get up and walked in front of Qin'er.

"Look up." The emperor spoke in a deep voice to Qin'er, and when she lifted her up, he slapped her suddenly, "What, dare to contempt Concubine Rong!" ”

Qin'er's cheeks immediately swollen, one tooth fell out, and her mouth was full of blood, and she couldn't stop kowtowing: "The slave doesn't dare to lie, Concubine Rong is jealous of Shun Chang's favor, so she deliberately sent the slave and maid to her side to serve, just so that one day she can get rid of Shun Chang ......"

The emperor stretched out his hands to An Lingrong and helped her up, without looking at Qin'er, and the power of the Son of Heaven poured down: "If you confess honestly, I can still give you a whole corpse, and if you repeatedly slander Concubine Rong, I don't need to verify it, and I will directly drag you down to Ling Chi to death." He held An Lingrong's hand and said loudly, "My Rong'er will never do such a thing!" ”

An Lingrong looked up at the emperor, the trust in his eyes was like a sharp sword piercing her chest, and a wave of enthusiasm came from nowhere and surged into her eyes.
