Chapter Forty-Six: Broad Mercy and Poison

In the middle of October, although the weather is not cold, the cold wind has begun to sweep the capital, the last batch of dead leaves on the trees along the street have fallen, the palace seems to have no warmth, although the red walls and green tiles are scattered, but it looks abrupt and desolate.

The emperor has not been heard from, and it has been a month and a half since he disappeared, and the tired horse's hooves galloped back to the palace all the way, all in vain.

The fragrance in the Guangci Hall is still the same, the curtain is still the same, but the atmosphere is tense, the sound is the alarm, the Queen Mother's cough is getting worse and worse, but she refuses to seek the Imperial Doctor's examination, everyone knows that it is afraid of causing turmoil, and the right to be anxious is caused, and the maids will get refreshing melons and fruits for the Queen Mother to quench her thirst.

At the beginning of the hour, the chief guard officer Jing Zi hurriedly returned to the palace, regardless of hunger, and went straight to the queen mother's palace, and suddenly found that there was an extra palace maid in the palace, and bowed his head silently.

The Queen Mother's last glimmer of hope was shattered, and she coughed violently, and Fu Rou hurriedly stepped forward to beat her back.

Wentu saw that Jing Zi was almost staggering, her face was much older, her eyes were blank, she knew that there was no good news, and she was busy signaling Fu Rou to go out, the stakes were very high, and she must not know it.

"No need," the Queen Mother raised her hand to stop Fu Rou, who was just about to leave the palace, "If the mourning family is afraid of a little palace maid, how can they assist the emperor in governing the world, if you have the heart to hear it, you know it, what does it matter, if you don't have the intention, why bother to make a fool of it, Jing Zi, you say, the mourning family listens!"

"Empress Dowager Mother," Jing Zi bowed his head while wiping the sweat drops, "The people and horses sent from outside Gyeonggi have all returned, even if the emperor is quick to whip up, he can find it, but ......"

"That means that the emperor will never be found again!" The Queen Mother didn't want to hear the following words, so she simply said it instead of the unspeakable Jing Zi, and immediately pondered, clutching her chest and suppressing her cough.

"The Queen Mother is angry, and she will definitely make plans again, and she will definitely find the emperor!" Jing Zi's words seemed to be squeezed out of his teeth.

Fu Rou was secretly shocked in her heart, and then she knew that King Pan did not shoot successfully on the spot, and the emperor escaped from Beppu, but the situation in front of him was very clear, the emperor was no longer visible, and there was a lot of luck and less, and he instantly contradicted himself, and he didn't know what the result was: the emperor is alive, and his father's revenge has not been avenged, but Dongtu is safe; if he dies, I am afraid that it will affect Dongtu, and suddenly remembered Wentu's words, maybe this adulterer is right, it is not necessarily that the emperor killed his father, so he looked at Wentu coldly, his eyebrows were locked, his face was sad, and he had observed in recent days, he was always not as evil as he thought。

Wentu knew that the emperor couldn't see anyone alive or dead, something must have happened, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said: "The queen mother, now the situation is unknown, the subordinates think that the emperor will definitely come back, everything in the world depends on the mother, you must take care of your body, and your subordinates still pass on the imperial doctor......"

The Queen Mother immediately raised her hand to stop it, and the emperor would never visit the imperial doctor unless he returned to him.

The house leak happened to rain overnight, and a sound of "King Pan arrived" made the entire Guangci Hall like frost.

King Pan has always been swaggering, but when he entered the queen mother's palace, he was still slightly restrained, and he went straight to the queen mother and knelt down: "The emperor visits the queen mother!"

The county lord was stunned, and finally saw this generation of heroes, exactly the same as what Nie Liang said, with a smile on his face, his eyes were confused, and he knew that he was a deceitful character at a glance, and his heart was even more unpleasant.

The Queen Mother immediately raised her hand and said: "Get up, look at Wu'er's spirit, it must be reflective and enlightened." ”

King Pan was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that he was still in the period of reflection, so he got up and said: "Thank you for the praise of the queen mother, the sons and daughters have indeed repented in the past few days, the emperor is sick in bed, as a disciple of the royal family, he is indifferent, isn't it a joke." No, since the fifth princess entered the palace, the child has never gone out once, but he can't see the queen mother tired of the government alone, and the sons can't sleep day and night, so they hurried to greet the queen mother, visit the second brother, and apologize to the emperor in person, and at the same time think about the previous dynasty, hoping to share some sorrows for the queen mother and the emperor, and hope that the queen mother will be fulfilled!"

Wentu was shocked, this is the tone of the forced palace!

Jing Zi's body stiffened, and he unconsciously lay his hand on the hilt of the sword!

"Ahem," the Queen Mother covered her mouth and coughed a few times, "Yes, Pan'er is also thirty years old and has grown up, so it is time to go through the experience," the Queen Mother changed her previous majesty and asked in a low voice, "I don't know what my ambition is, but I have a favorite position?" ”

King Pan didn't expect to be so happy, his eyes rolled and said: "How dare the ministers dare to beg for officials, they just want to complain to the queen mother and the emperor in person for the old prime minister, Min Xiang is old, tired and tired, and has a lot of expenses, Pan Er just wants to help the old man and do his best for the court!"

Wentu gritted his teeth with hatred, and couldn't wait to rush up and screw off King Pan's head, he must have known that the emperor was not in the harem, and he kept meeting the emperor's brother, which was nothing more than threatening the queen mother, and he no longer regarded the auxiliary government as a vacant position, and went straight to the post of deputy minister, plus the identity of the prince, he could directly sit on an equal footing with Prime Minister Min Cheng.

The Queen Mother was silent, nodded with satisfaction, turned her back to everyone, and muttered: "Okay, Pan'er has a chance after all, you can go back to the house for the time being, and after the mourning family and the old prime minister discuss, I will give you an answer in two days." ”

"Thank you to the queen mother, today I will no longer disturb the emperor's recuperation, choose a day to get some good ginseng and worms, and the sons will personally suffer for the emperor's brother to feed, so that the emperor ......can recover as soon as possible."

"Lord Wang, please!" The county lord found out that King Pan was obscene, and hurriedly bowed his head and gave way.

"Queen Mother, the child is leaving!" King Pan's heart was rippling, and he glanced at Fu Rou and looked away, nodded secretly and stepped out.

The Queen Mother raised her hand with difficulty and slapped it on the royal table, and said angrily in her mouth: "Rebel!" Then she coughed rapidly, her body continued to twitch, and she was in pain.

"Queen Mother!" the three exclaimed.

Wentu understands that the Queen Mother is not only angry with this Pan Wang for making waves, but also annoyed that she knows that she is sick but has never said a greeting, such a rebellious person can be described as a maggot in the world.

"It's not good, the Queen Mother ......" Fu Rou was just about to reach out and touch the Queen Mother's chest, and withdrew her hand in shock, seeing that King Pan was disobedient and the Queen Mother was in pain, she still couldn't bear it, the emperor is the emperor, the Queen Mother is the Queen Mother, although the Queen Mother has been harsh in the palace for many days, she has never embarrassed herself, and she feels deeply sorry for the situation of the Queen Mother.

"Bold!" Jing Zi glared at Fu Rou with round eyes, "Nonsense!"

Wentu hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Fu'er, what's wrong, but the Queen Mother is in urgent need of medicine?"

Fu Rou shook her head, and hurriedly helped the Queen Mother to the sleeping couch, ignoring the rules of the palace, she insisted on reaching her hand to the Queen Mother's wrist, and the Queen Mother was just about to speak, when she suddenly saw Fu Rou so close, she looked like a mortal fairy, so she simply shut up and let this maid take care of it.

Seeing that the Queen Mother was acquiesced and not easy to speak, Wentu and the others looked at Fu Rou nervously, only to see that her face gradually turned pale, and her lips began to tremble slightly.

"The Queen Mother," Fu Rou saw that the Queen Mother's eyes were dark, her breath was loud, and her nails were slightly darkened, and she asked quietly, "Have you eaten other foreign objects?"

The Queen Mother closed her eyes and shook her head, and replied calmly: "All the meals of the mourning family were verified by you and Wen Guard, where did the foreign object come from?

Fu Rou let go of her hand, knelt down and bowed her head and said, "Back to the Queen Mother, the humble girl doesn't dare to say it." ”

"Hmph! I haven't seen any scene in the mourning family, what is the little illness, rest assured, the mourning family can't die, let's talk about it, what's wrong!" The queen mother opened her eyes and turned her face to look at Fu Rou who was kneeling on the ground.

In desperation, Fu Rou didn't know why, she still looked up at Wentu, but after reading it, she regretted it and looked at Jing Zi again.

Jing Zi was already a little flustered, and immediately ordered: "Hurry, say quickly!"

"Queen Mother, poisoned!" Fu Rou replied in a firm tone.

"What?!" Jing Zi and Wentu were shocked at the same time, hearing this, they were shaky, where did the poison come from in the Guangci Palace?

Wentu hurriedly stood beside Fu Rou, as if he was guarding, this is not sloppy, if it is poisonous, there will be no head on the ground in the blink of an eye, if there is a lie, this Fu Rou will be imprisoned immediately!"Fu'er, you have to be right, don't say anything!" Wentu asked in a deep voice.

The Queen Mother closed her eyes, showed no signs of anger, raised her hand slightly and put it down, and said slowly: "Get up, the mourning family doesn't blame you, you can tell me, what kind of poison is it, and how did it enter the mourning family's body?"

Fu Rou calmed down after a while, shook her head and said: "The humble girl doesn't know how to enter the body of the Queen Mother, but this poison is the poison of the snake, the black frog, and the white scorpion, these three poisons are only found in the cold region of the Northern Region, and its poisonous juice is extremely fierce, but ordinary people will die if they eat a drop, and its taste is extremely spicy, and it is impossible to contaminate the jade body of the Queen Mother!"

Jing Zi absolutely couldn't believe that this kind of thing could enter the Guangci Palace, and once again stopped his suspicious gaze on Fu Rou, and then whispered: "Queen Mother, let's pass on the imperial doctor......

The Queen Mother sat up, stared at Fu Rou, and saw that she had no guilt or hesitation, so she shook her head again and again and said: "This matter must not be spread, the mourning family believes in this baby, you can check it first and make plans." ”

For a while, Jing Zi and Wentu were annoyed, no matter how they thought about it, it was impossible for such a sharp poisonous juice to enter the Guangci Palace, so they secretly searched the hall and its surroundings, and there was nothing strange about it!

Wen Tuli thought in the cool breeze, according to Fu Rou's words, this poisonous food is death, and the old queen mother has been coughing for a few days, even if it is poisoned, it is not an oral intake, so how did it enter the body? He suddenly understood, rushed into the Guangci Palace, regardless of the suspicion of men and women, grabbed Fu Rou and hurriedly asked: "Fu'er, you smell it, there is a smell of non-poisonous juice in this house?"

Fu Rou hurriedly broke free of Wentu's hand, carefully paced around the hall and sniffed, before he shook his head and complained for a long time: "There is no smell!"

Ventu sat down and clasped his hands together!
