Chapter 2 The Pretty Concubine Fights the Eunuch and Escapes into the Deep Valley (4)
Although Shen Deyi did not know the specific reason for the aggravation of the queen's condition, he could guess that this matter was not caused by He Taiyi, and, according to his inference, this matter was most likely secretly manipulated by Concubine Xian, which made the matter bigger, it turned out that Shen Deyi thought that the queen's illness was incurable, and he did it according to Concubine Xian's order, but he just wanted Jiang Dexing, the envoy of the Imperial Hospital, to send He Junren to treat the queen, and then let He Junren bear the responsibility for the queen's poor treatment, but He Junren's prescription was that the queen's illness improved, but later the condition worsened, Someone must be making trouble from it, in this way, Shen Deyi's responsibility is greater, he and Concubine Xian privately joined forces, intervened in the affairs of the Tai Hospital, and recommended He Taiyi to treat the queen, if these things were known by the emperor, Shen Deyi would be imprisoned if he was not guilty of capital crimes, Shen Deyi was afraid.
Shen Deyi thought, "Now that Imperial Physician He has been imprisoned, although the emperor does not believe that it was Imperial Physician He who prescribed the prescription that aggravated the queen's illness, but the Empress Dowager believes that Imperial Physician He cannot be released from prison now, it must be done that Imperial Physician He deliberately prescribed fierce medicine, and let Imperial Physician He bear the charge, otherwise, once I instruct Jiang Dexing's matter to be revealed, it will be a big trouble." β
Shen Deyi decided to be ruthless, he found Jiang Dexing, and said to Jiang Dexing: "Envoy Jiang, you are in big trouble, now the queen is dying, our family believes that this is not the prescription prescribed by Imperial Doctor He There is a problem, someone must be making trouble, you say, is it you or other original judges?"
"Gonggong Shen, can you say that, endangering the queen is a big crime. I can't afford it, I have the courage to do it, and I don't dare to do anything about healing the queen, and I swear that I will never do such a thing!" Jiang Dexing said in a trembling heart.
"Didn't you do it?" So, do you believe that a virtuous imperial doctor like He Junren would deliberately prescribe fierce medicine?" Shen Deyi asked slyly.
"This ...... I don't really believe this, but the queen is indeed getting sicker, and I can't figure it out and don't know what's going on. Now the queen's illness is not getting better. If it doesn't get better, he will be sent to prison by the Queen Mother!" Jiang Dexing said aggrievedly.
"In front of our family, you don't have to pretend, you are also a famous medical master in the Tai Hospital. The queen's condition turned bad. Can't you see what's going on? You'd better tell us the truth, for now we're in the same boat as you. If you tell the truth, maybe our family can help you!" Shen Deyi asked.
"Shen Gonggong, what is going on, it is not clear in the next, the aggravation of the queen's condition is very strange, from the point of view of the disease, the queen's main symptom before was that the liver fire was very strong, the medicine prescribed by the imperial physician He at first was gradually reduced to the fire, the queen took the medicine prescribed by the imperial physician, it improved slightly, but then it suddenly worsened, the celebrant sent someone to check the residue of the medicine prescribed by the imperial physician He that the queen was taking, and accompanied to check it, from the medicinal residue, the medicine prescribed by the imperial physician He is still to reduce the liver fire, and there are no harmful herbal ingredients from the medicinal residue, but the appearance of the queen's aggravated condition is extremely hot, like taking a great tonic aphrodisiac, I really can't understand itγ Jiang Dexing said cautiously.
After Shen Deyi listened to Jiang Dexing's statement, he seemed to understand a little, he thought: "The cause of the queen is fire, and someone let the queen take a big tonic medicine to make her internal fire more prosperous, this intention is very sinister, this thing should not be done by the doctors of the Tai Hospital, they don't have the guts, let alone He Taiyi, he has always attached great importance to medical ethics and will not do this kind of thing, so there is only one possibility left, someone in the harem interfered in this matter, this person is very likely to be a virtuous concubine, this woman is too bold." β
Of course, Shen Deyi couldn't say what he thought to Jiang Dexing, but he was already involved in this Yan zhΓ²ng incident, and he had to do his best to get out of danger, so he decided to pull Jiang Dexing and implement his plan of "blaming others" together.
"The situation is very critical, both of us have been involved in danger, if the queen's illness cannot be cured, we will all be implicated, if the queen mother is angry, it is inevitable that you will be thrown into prison, if you want to get out of danger, you must listen to our family, perhaps, our family can save you from danger, are you willing to listen to me?" Shen Deyi asked.
"Thank you, Gonggong Shen, you can help me get out of danger this time, but I am very gracious, only your life will be obeyed!" Jiang Dexing said.
"Okay, let's work together, act together, and get out of danger as much as possible! Haven't you already explained the situation to the emperor? Do you think that He Junren deliberately increased the dosage and used the medicine too violently, which harmed the queen, and now, He Junren has been imprisoned, if the emperor finds that He Junren's prescription is not wrong after investigation, then you are slandering, and others will think that you are blaming others to cover up your mistakes, which is a very strict problem, so if you want to save yourself, you must prove that Imperial Doctor He did deliberately increase the dosage, I wonder if Jiang Yuanzhi has evidence to prove this?"
"Gonggong Shen, you are very clear about the whole thing, right now, there is no way to find evidence in Xia, to speak in my heart, at that time, I was so anxious that I had no choice, so I would make it clear to the emperor that it was Imperial Doctor He who prescribed the fierce medicine, if you don't do that, you will have to take full responsibility in Xia, and at that time it was a last resort, and you can only use that strategy. Jiang Dexing said.
"Our family knows that you are 'in a hurry', but if the celebrant substitutes Imperial Physician He, will he admit that it was he who prescribed the medicine to increase the dosage, did he take the medicine too violently? Will he admit that the queen's serious illness was caused by him?" Shen Deyi asked sternly.
Of course, Imperial Physician He will not admit that it was his mistake, and the prescription he prescribed will not make the queen's internal fire more vigorous, so he will not admit that he harmed the queen. Jiang Dexing didn't understand what Shen Deyi meant, and told the truth.
"Okay, Master Envoy, now we ask you: how can we get him to admit it?" Shen Deyi said sternly.
"It's very difficult to do, He Junren values the reputation of medical skills more than anything else, even if he is tortured, he will not admit it!" Jiang Dexing said.
"In that case, we can only write a confession for him and let him draw a confession. And don't let him speak anymore, so that he won't admit it?" Shen Deyi said, his face full of murderous energy.
Jiang Dexing listened to what Shen Deyi said, he finally understood what Shen Deyi meant, he was very scared and said: "No, you can't do that, I am the envoy of the Tai Hospital, and I must not kill people with a group of people who are responsible for treating diseases and saving people." You can't do that!"
"Now you have no other way out. Either kill someone or go to hell yourself, think for yourself! Ho Chun-yan has been arrested and imprisoned, and you can attack him in prison. And designed him to commit suicide by taking poison in fear of sin. There are also good reasons to commit suicide. He committed suicide because he was afraid of hurting his daughter, and we can prepare a suicide note for him, which states that He Junren is willing to take full responsibility for the aggravation of the queen's condition. It was written that he emphasized that the matter had nothing to do with his daughter, and that he wanted to show off his medical skills. Think about it, as long as this thing is done, all the content you made to the emperor before will be true, you have not deceived the king, and everyone will also believe that he left a suicide note, and it is true that he committed suicide, and the queen mother will be satisfied with this, she is very angry with He Junren, besides, if the queen really can't be cured, it is not your fault, but He Junren's single-handedness, and it is so beneficial to you, why don't you do it?" Shen Deyi analyzed.
Jiang Dexing listened to Shen Deyi's analysis, and was very conflicted in his heart, he had no choice, but he had to make a choice, which made him collapse, he looked at Shen Deyi blankly, not knowing how to speak, and not knowing what to say.
"You are silent, that is to express your consent, okay, let's divide the labor, our family will find someone to imitate He Junren's handwriting, write a suicide note for him, you think of a good trick, let He Junren take poison and commit suicide, this is very easy for you to do, as soon as He Junren 'commits suicide', you will be safe, and our family will not have to take responsibility, this will be beneficial to us, implement the plan tomorrow, do your best to prepare, our family will leave!" Shen Deyi finished speaking, and left the hospital without waiting for Jiang Dexing to respond.
Jiang Dexing watched Shen Deyi leave without a master, he had no other choice, he had to obey Shen Deyi's orders and do what he was very unwilling to do, he would regret it for the rest of his life after he even did it, but he couldn't help it.
On the second day, Imperial Physician He died in prison, and the prison envoy sent a report to the above: "He Junren committed suicide in fear of sin, and he assumed the responsibility for the aggravation of the queen's illness by enlightening the queen, and he showed that he had failed the emperor's great favor and could not afford his daughter, and was willing to die to apologize." He Junren committed suicide with poison hidden in the gap between his sleeves in advance, which was extremely poisonous, and he died immediately after taking the poison. β
The news of Imperial Physician He's "suicide" reached the harem, and the Queen Mother heard it and said: "The queen's aggravated condition is really a bad thing done by this bad-hearted fellow, he was afraid of crime and committed suicide by taking poison because he got cheap, he should have had his car cracked, and such a bad person is innocent of death!"
Concubine Xian also heard the news, at first, she was very happy, she thought: "He Junren is an interesting doctor, he finished himself, which saves me a lot of trouble, however, he may think that he will let his daughter go if he breaks it himself, he underestimates me, I am not so kind, he is dead, his daughter has to die, whoever let him raise such a daughter, she gets in my way, she should die!"
Subsequently, Concubine Xian thought about it carefully, she felt that things were not so simple, according to He Junren's personality, he would not commit suicide in prison, he regarded his medical reputation as more important than his own life, and it was impossible for him to give up his life before the facts were clear, so He Junren should have been killed instead of committing suicide.
Concubine Xian pondered: "Who killed He Junren? Could it be that Jiang Dexing, the envoy of the Imperial Hospital, did it? No, he didn't have the guts; it was the Queen Mother who sent someone to kill him? No, it was not right, there was no need for the Queen Mother to kill him; Shen Deyi, who was the governor of the prison?" It is very likely that he wants to make He Junren's crime solid and avoid letting the incident affect him, this ruthless eunuch is more vicious than me, and he has to beware of him in the future, of course, if He Junren is really killed by Shen Deyi, this just helps me a lot, I will ignore Shen Deyi for the time being, and the most important opponent at the moment is He Zhihan. β
Concubine Xian's old trick was repeated, and she sent people to spread rumors, saying that in order to protect his daughter, Imperial Doctor He committed suicide by taking poison, in fact, the medicine made the queen's condition worse, which was exactly his daughter's idea, Concubine De wanted to snatch the queen's position, she took advantage of the queen's illness, and figured out how to gradually make the queen worsen the queen's condition to get rid of the queen, paving the way for her to govern the inner palace.
Under the clever arrangement of Concubine Xian, the rumors spread in the palace soon reached the ears of the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother was hating He Zhihan's father these days, she heard the rumors, what she said was exactly what she thought in her heart, she was very angry when she heard it, and she didn't care whether the emperor would object, she immediately issued an order to put Concubine De in the laundry room, and sent her cronies and eunuchs to take care of it.
Concubine De is very wronged, she has always been kind to people in the inner palace, trying her best to serve the emperor, respecting the queen mother and queen, respecting the virtuous concubine, and getting along with the concubines and nobles, but now she has ended up in a tragic end, she heard the news of his father's death in prison, grief-stricken, she did not believe that his father would commit suicide, and now, even she is suspected of participating in the murder of the queen, and was demoted to the laundry room by the order of the queen mother, maybe she will also be executed, she is very uncomfortable, but she doesn't know what to do.
Fortunately, the eunuch sent by the Queen Mother to supervise He Zhihan in the laundry room was a kinder person, and he had been seriously ill before, and it was He Zhihan's father who saved him, he felt sorry for the death of the Imperial Doctor, and he did not believe that He Zhihan would commit suicide, so he decided to help He Zhihan and repay her father for saving his life.
He whispered to He Zhihan in the laundry room: "Concubine De Niangniang, you are too kind, you and your father are good people, but you are too good in the harem, the emperor's favor for you makes you attract the jealousy of others to you, you are in the way of others, don't be too gentle, someone is framing you, framing your father, you are a smart person, you should understand the current danger, if you don't want to get away, you will be like your father, you will be killed, you can no longer passively bear it, you have to do your best!" β
He Zhihan listened to the eunuch's sincere words to her, she woke up like a dream, and she now knew that her kind behavior in the harem was useless, and others would not fight with her because of her kindness, she was favored by the emperor, but she attracted the terrible jealousy of others and was framed.
He Zhihan thought: "I can't stay gentle and elegant like before, I must cheer up, actively forge ahead, think of a good strategy, try my best to escape from the danger, only by leaving the danger first, it is possible to save my life, to have the opportunity to find out who is framing me, and to find out the truth about my father's death in prison, in any case, I don't believe that my father will commit suicide, someone must have killed her, my father was framed for this revenge, and she must be avenged as a daughter!"
He Zhihan was forced into a desperate situation, although she was difficult to accept the reality in front of her, but she did not despair because of the predicament, her tenacious and brave personality in her bones was stimulated, on the surface, she still seemed very gentle, very kind, but deep down, she has changed, she has become witty, decisive, daring to act, she is fearless.
The shape is very critical, He Zhihan was thinking anxiously, suddenly, she had a plan, she decided to take advantage of the psychology of the important people in the inner and outer courts who were eager to save the queen, and resorted to the "golden cicada head shell" plan, first from the danger of getting out of danger.
He Zhihan is familiar with ancient books, she understands the truth of "36 strategies are the best policy", and she will only have the opportunity to continue to move forward if she "walks first". (To be continued......)
