Liu Qiaoer didn’t know about these.
Concubine Shu had a cold constitution, so Zhang Lingzhi was right to ask her to eat more ginseng.
If there was no sandalwood, her fetus might be fine, but if she often smelled the jewelry box, it would be hard to say.
There was one more thing Liu Qiaoer didn't say.
I don’t know whether Zhang Lingzhi has diagnosed that there is a cold poison in Concubine Shu’s body. It’s a very small amount. She must have been infected and then cured, and only some of it remains.
If you're not pregnant, everything is fine.
Pregnancy is not good for the fetus.
Summarizing these two factors, Liu Qiaoer felt that Concubine Shu had a difficult pregnancy this time, but with careful care, there should be no problem.
Whether the baby can be born depends on the Queen's wishes.
The queen was also very curious. After listening to Liu Qiaoer's words, she had an idea in her mind.
He ordered Aunt Xing: "Go outside the palace to find my mother and ask her to send someone to investigate the past of Concubine Shu at her natal family. If her natal family has any grudges against her, everything will be easy to handle..."
Nanny Xing was worried just now, but unexpectedly, there was light at the end of the tunnel. She said happily, "I will go right away."
The Queen looked at Liu Qiao'er with admiration and casually gave her a golden hairpin: "You are really good, no wonder the prince likes you. If it weren't for your background... Follow me well. After the matter is accomplished, I will definitely not treat you unfairly."
Liu Qiaoer thanked him, but what she actually wanted was not wealth and glory.
But if she wants to survive in the palace, the queen is her biggest support.
I have to say that the Queen is worthy of being the Queen. Her subordinates have strong execution ability. In just two or three days, they found out all the twists and turns of Concubine Shu's family.
Shufei is the legitimate daughter of the Minister of Personnel. Her maternal grandfather's family is a family of etiquette, and her uncle is also an official in the Imperial Academy of the court.
Although my father came from a poor family, he was the top scorer in the imperial examination of his class.
The man from her mother's family chose a son-in-law from the list and married the new number one scholar, which became a good story at the time.
Shufei was born a winner in life. It seemed that her life was smooth sailing and she had no regrets.
The only shortcoming is that her mother only has her as a daughter, and the three brothers in the family are all born to her aunt.
Shufei is the emperor's favorite concubine. Although her status in the harem is not as high as that of the queen, she is very favored.
Logically speaking, even if this was the only woman her mother had, she was better than all her sons, and no one in her mother's family would harm her anyway.
When one prospers, all prosper; when one suffers, all suffer.
Nanny Xing replied, "Your Majesty, it seems that this is not a problem with Concubine Shu's family."
So who gave her that makeup box? The sandalwood was made into rosewood, so the price went up, but the smell is really bad for the body.
Liu Qiaoer thought for a moment and said, "Why not investigate secretly?"
The queen nodded and said, "We must investigate, but it cannot be anyone in our palace."
Liu Qiaoer rolled her eyes and said, "My queen, there is a great candidate, but you didn't notice it."
It's Chinese New Year, and the capital is filled with joy. The palace lanterns in the imperial palace have been gradually replaced with red lanterns starting from the 23rd day of the twelfth lunar month, the eve of the Chinese New Year.
Long dragons were also hung on both sides of the streets in the capital.
On New Year's Eve, the emperor and court officials all started to take their holidays. All official business was postponed as much as possible, and the emperor and court officials came to a standstill.
On New Year's Eve, the emperor began to host banquets to entertain his ministers.
Not everyone is qualified to be personally entertained by the emperor.
Not based on rank, but on the emperor's own assessment, generally speaking they are people who have made contributions to the court and people the emperor values.
There are not many places available. Excluding the royal family, there are only about ten people left.
The emperor held a banquet in the front hall to entertain his ministers, and the empress held a banquet in the back hall to entertain the ministers' wives.
At this moment, being entertained by the two most distinguished people in Beiyuan is the most honorable thing.
After the incident with the Empress Dowager, the Emperor's regime gradually became more stable, and the list of guests to be entertained on this day was also very different from previous years.
In previous years, most of the people were from the Empress Dowager's party, and there were some royal relatives, but not many.
This year the Emperor is taking power for the first time, and the ceremony will be a little more grand.
The number of people on the Queen's side also increased. Liu Qiaoer met the Marquis's wife, but she didn't expect that she actually brought Xie Yiyi to the palace as well.
What does this mean? Letting Xie Yiyi enter the palace and show her face is to find her a good marriage
Cui Boxiao was not in the Marquis's Mansion, and Liu Qiaoer was unwilling to take care of the Mansion's affairs.
However, they are the Queen's family after all, so they still have to follow the etiquette.
The Emperor and the Empress are holding a banquet today. Although it is New Year's Eve, all the palace maids, eunuchs, imperial kitchens, imperial chefs, and imperial doctors are not resting. They all have to be on standby.
In case someone doesn't eat well, the imperial doctors are responsible for ensuring the health of the masters in the palace.
Liu Qiaoer's biggest task today was not to entertain these people, but to find Zhang Lingzhi and inquire about the matter of Concubine Shu.
On New Year's Eve, it was snowing lightly and the palace was covered with snow everywhere. Liu Qiao'er was not a palace maid, so her clothes were slightly different from those of the palace maids, but she still had her hair in a bun like a maid and wore a red cloak.
Under a plum tree, waiting for Zhang Lingzhi.
From afar, Zhang Lingzhi saw her and felt happy, which caused ripples in his heart.
"Girl, it's so cold. Sorry to have kept you waiting."
Liu Qiaoer smiled and held up the heater in her hand: "It's OK, it's not cold. It's also nice to take this opportunity to enjoy the scenery in the palace."
Zhang Lingzhi just liked her liveliness: "I found out what the young lady asked me to find out. Concubine Shu said that her dressing box was left to her mother by her grandmother."
"When she entered the palace, her mother gave it to her again, saying it was a keepsake."
Liu Qiaoer frowned. Neither Concubine Shu's grandmother nor her mother could possibly harm her.
"Then do you think there is something wrong with her pregnancy?"
Although Zhang Lingzhi was a good doctor, he was not as good as Liu Qiaoer. After all, based on experience, Shufei was the first pregnant woman diagnosed by Zhang Lingzhi.
Based on the cases in the book, he didn't notice anything wrong.
However, he was smart. When he heard Liu Qiao'er's question, he also cleverly asked back: "Miss, do you also think there is something wrong with her?"
Liu Qiaoer nodded: "She is weak, and you have asked her to eat ginseng. According to normal thinking, this is correct. However, there is something wrong with the fragrance in her room. Do you smell it?"
After all, Zhang Lingzhi comes from a medical family and is very sensitive to the taste and fragrance of medicine.
Suddenly, he had an idea. The Shufei Palace was filled with the fragrance of ambergris and perfumed powder. He smelled them all at first and there seemed to be nothing wrong.
However, after Liu Qiaoer said this, and she asked him to look into the matter of the rosewood dressing box, his memory became more acute.
"Pregnant women shouldn't have too strong a scent. Next time I take her pulse, shall I remind her?"
Zhang Lingzhi asked tentatively.
Liu Qiaoer smiled contemptuously: "It doesn't matter whether I remind you or not. Once you enter the palace, it's like entering a deep sea. Whether you can give birth to a child and raise him is the most important thing."
Zhang Lingzhi suddenly felt that he understood something.
Liu Qiao'er is the Queen's person, and the Queen is now pregnant. If she gives birth to a boy, then Concubine Shu will not have to give birth to the child.
If a princess is born, there is a high probability that she will survive.
However, when taking Concubine Shu's pulse, Zhang Lingzhi had already found out that the baby was a boy.
