The ability to deceive Concubine Qi and her son this time was indeed due to Lu Caizhi's excellent acupuncture skills, which made her breath stop and her heartbeat become very weak. But Lu Caizhi herself was very afraid of this attempt. If she was not careful, she might push the Queen Mother into the abyss of death.
Lu Caizhi did not dare to ask for any reward, but Li Wei still gave him one hundred taels of silver, as well as a lot of gold, silver, jewelry and cloth, and he received a lot of money.
"When I called you into the palace to serve me, I was preparing for this day. At that time, I said that I would add a box to you, and I had to do what I said. Without you, this time would definitely not go as smoothly as it did."
Lu Caizhi was influenced by what he saw and heard, and he had the spirit of research. His medical skills were outstanding enough at a young age, but it was a pity that this era was limited. The social status of doctors is not too high, and the status of women is even lower. If Caizhi had been in that era, he would have been just like Bian Ling.
That night, Shujia and Li Wei were going to sleep together. Such a big thing happened in the palace. Shujia was young, so she was naturally scared, so she hugged Shujia and lay on the same bed. It didn't take much effort to eliminate the opponent. This night was the best night Li Wei slept after returning for so long.
She woke up the next day when the windows turned white and she felt refreshed.
Qingxiang came in to serve, and brought her a piece of news: "The Queen Mother, yesterday there was news from the Shenxing Department, saying that the Queen Mother of Qi learned that the King of Shu was dead, could not withstand the blow, and had hanged herself. ”
Did she seek her own death? Still escaped legal sanctions. Li lowered his eyelids slightly and said lightly: "I understand."
"They also say that Princess Shu has lost her mind and turned into a madman."
Qingxiang asked Li Wei again: "What should I do with Fengling?"
Fangling played the role that Wan Su should play, and was only used by Xu Kun Palace. In the final analysis, both Fang Ling and the previous Wan Su are just pawns of the opponent, and they can be thrown away at will after use. Concubine Qi took advantage of Fengling, and she was also taking advantage of Fengling. It's just that Fang Ling was kept in the dark.
She said: "Let Fengling come out of the palace." This was her greatest tolerance.
Qingxiang agreed and went down to give instructions.
Li Wei said nothing more and let the palace maid comb her hair. She looked at the face in the mirror. The mercury mirror was much clearer than the bronze mirror.
The palace maid combing her hair made a simple and neat bun with Li Wei. Now she didn't need to wear white flowers. The palace maid picked up a silver engraved flower hairpin from the box and inserted it into her hair. Simple and elegant.
After combing his hair, Fu Guang sent the chief eunuch in front of him to pay his respects to his mother. Li Wei Shao couldn't help but ask: "Did the emperor sleep peacefully last night?"
The chief eunuch replied: "Back to the Queen Mother, the Emperor got up three times last night."
Zhao Fushou died in front of Fu Guang. He was such a young child and his mind was not yet sound. He would not be afraid after being stimulated like this. Li Wei said: "Ask the imperial doctor to prescribe some medicine for the emperor to calm his mind. You must also pay attention to your diet, and the people who follow you should also give more advice."
Those bad things have passed, and everything will be smooth in the future. I hope that the events of King He and King Shu can deter those who have different intentions.
She washed her face and rinsed her mouth, then went to the Buddhist hall to burn incense and pray to the ancestors of the Zhao family. When he came back from sitting on the shoulder, the concubines and concubines had already come to the main hall of Chongqing Palace to greet Li Wei.
Li Wei took his seat, and everyone paid their respects to Li Wei. Li Wei said no courtesy, and then everyone returned to their seats. Concubine Qi is dead, and the remaining people are a little trembling.
Concubine Jing Gui is the person with the highest status among these people. She stood up and expressed her determination on behalf of everyone: "I am willing to swear allegiance to the Queen Mother to the death. There is no second intention."
Li Wei said: "Those bad things are over, and everyone can live their lives with peace of mind. This is a forbidden city, and it is the face of the royal family. Logically speaking, many of you are older than me, so I should call you sister. I am qualified. I am not high, and I am not the emperor's biological mother. It is reasonable for you to be unwilling to accept my existence. But now that the emperor is young and the world is not peaceful, I hope you will not be used by people with ulterior motives to cause trouble for us. It is your duty to take good care of the emperor and be respectful to the late emperor when he comes to the underground."
Li Wei's tone was always gentle and gentle, but every word was precise. The concubines once again expressed their determination to be loyal to Li Wei.
After the bloody incident, Li Wei hopes to truly deter those who have different intentions.
Li Xing had been arranged by Li Wei to return to Shangshu Mansion before, for fear that this sister would also be involved. Now that things had calmed down, she sent someone to bring her sister back.
Although Li Xing had been outside the palace these days, she had heard a little about what happened in the palace. Afterwards, she was still frightened: "How could such a big thing happen?"
Li Wei nodded and said, "Yes, that's why I asked you to go back and avoid it."
"Have you expected this, Queen Mother?"
"If I hadn't expected it or been prepared, I would have been lying in a coffin now."
Li Xing saw that the Queen Mother spoke calmly, but what was behind it was so thrilling that he felt scared just thinking about it.
Fu Guang still came over in the evening, and the children had a solemn look on their faces. As if he were a little grown-up, after seeing her, he bowed respectfully and said hello.
Li Wei nodded happily and said, "My dear prince, I have asked the Imperial Hospital to prescribe some medicine for your concentration and concentration, and ask Zhang Banban to take it to you before going to bed at night."
"Thank you, Queen Mother."
"Good boy, how can I say thank you? Everything the queen mother and your uncle have done is to protect you. I hope the emperor can grow up quickly and become an upright man. The queen mother is relieved."
But Fu Guang said: "Mother, when the children grow up, they will protect the mother."
Li Wei touched Fu Guang's little face and said with some emotion: "My dear emperor, my mother is waiting for that day."
Li Wei asked her small kitchen to cook Fu Guang's favorite dishes. Seeing Fu Guang and Shujia eating happily, a smile gradually appeared on Fu Guang's face, and she finally calmed down.
Since she can't go back there, staying here to be a queen mother and doing her best to protect her two little children is the most important thing in her life. For Fu Guang and Shujia, she can give up everything else.
She wanted to live a good life here, choose a reliable queen for Fu Guang, and choose a consort worthy of her for Shujia. As for the people and things over there, Li Wei hopes to see them and talk to them in his dream.
As usual, Li Xing accompanied Shujia to the Wenhua Hall to study, while Fu Guang went to the upper study room to study. Princess Dun often came here with Fukang to relieve her boredom. The days passed by were ordinary and a bit boring.
