Suddenly there was no movement in Jingyou Palace. Emperor Yongming ordered the imperial guards to seal off the entire Jingyou Palace, and no one was allowed to leave. But the news came out that Qi You, the descendant of the king, seemed to have been poisoned.
And the real situation is.
In the inner room, even though new mattresses were replaced and incense was lit, the room could still smell a bit of blood. On the bed, the queen was lying there flat, without a trace of blood on her face, but when you got closer, you could find that his breathing was steady, and there was no pain on his face, he just fell asleep, exhausted. , slept extremely peacefully.
Emperor Yongming, who also changed into a dragon robe, was sitting beside the bed, holding the queen's warm hand with both hands, pressing it to his mouth, silently looking at the sleeping person, at this moment, he did not accept anyone's disturbance , and have no intention of caring about anything outside. Zhuo Jin and Guo Xun stood in the corner waiting for the emperor's call at any time, and they frequently lowered their heads and wiped their tears.
Outside, all the imperial physicians were discussing in a low voice, Elder Weng, General Dai, and Bai Suyan sat together and waited for the final conclusion of the imperial physicians. Dai Mingge was sent back to the general's mansion by the old general Dai to report.
After discussing for a long time, the imperial physicians all nodded and agreed with their final conclusion. The backs of Old Weng, General Dai and Bai Suyan immediately straightened a lot. Ning Mu turned around, bowed to the three of them, then nodded, Bai Suyan stood up and walked lightly into the inner room, walked behind Emperor Yongming, and whispered: "Your Majesty, the imperial physicians have reached a conclusion. "
Emperor Yongming's body shook. Taking a deep breath, he put Dai Qiyou's hand under the quilt, tucked Dai Qiyou's corner of the quilt again, and stood up.
"Zhuo Jin, Guo Xun, you two stay here."
"yes."
Emperor Yongming walked out with Bai Suyan. Ning Mu immediately came over and bowed: "Your Majesty, I have reached a conclusion after discussing with you."
"explain!"
Ning Mu bowed again, and said, "Your Majesty, the black blood oozing from Qiantui's skin and seven orifices is indeed residual poison. After waiting for Qiantui's pulse, I found that there is no residual poison in Qiantui's body."
Emperor Yongming's expression tightened: "Is it really gone?"
"Yes. Indeed, there are none."
Emperor Yongming clenched his fists: "What is that piece of flesh that makes the queen bleed all the time?"
Ning Mu lowered his eyes, with a look of embarrassment on his face.
"explain!"
Ning Mu knelt down, and the other imperial physicians also knelt down. Ning Mu kowtowed, and said: "Your Majesty, that... that is... the dead fetus in Qiantui's body."
Emperor Yongming was stunned on the spot for a moment, Elder Weng and Old General Dai were also stunned, Bai Suyan hurriedly asked: "How old is the fetus? Why hasn't it been found out?"
Emperor Yongming shook his body and gritted his teeth: "You should be killed! You can't find out that the queen is pregnant?!"
Ning Mu hurriedly raised his head and said: "The emperor is not angry. This fetus is not just conceived by Qiantui! Before Qiantui had a miscarriage, she always had abdominal pain and blood flowed out from time to time. I am not good at learning, so I only thought that Qiantui was poisoned That’s why it’s so painful. Just now, the minister and others examined the piece of flesh in detail, and after discussing it, they concluded that what Qiantui was pregnant with should be twins.”
Emperor Yongming's eyes widened: "You said, what? Twins?!"
"The queen was pregnant with two?!" The old general Dai couldn't stand anymore and grabbed Bai Suyan's arm.
Ning Mu nodded and said: "Qiantui was pregnant with twins back then, but only one fetus was shed, and the other fetus remained in Qiantui's body, that's why Qiantui suffered so much. And because that fetus is no longer a fetus It's just a piece of flesh and blood, so I couldn't find it out. Although Chitose suffered a catastrophe this time, he cleared the remaining poison and expelled this piece of flesh and blood. I don't know what caused Chitose to suffer so much, but this time it can be said that Chitose It is a blessing in disguise, the queen will no longer be harmed by the residual poison, and will no longer suffer from abdominal pain and bleeding, just need to be recuperated slowly, the queen will be able to fully recover and be able to give birth to children normally."
Emperor Yongming looked at Ning Mu, not knowing how to react. Old General Dai, Weng Lao and Bai Suyan all looked at Emperor Yongming, with the same mixed emotions, and at the same time, they were also very puzzled. The queen has suffered from abdominal pain and residual poison for many years, what is the opportunity for him to recover completely despite suffering a lot this time
They were originally two children, but they were seriously injured because of the poison in their mother's body, and they left before they had time to see the world. However, only one left, and the other seemed unwilling to leave "mother" like this, and was reluctant to leave for a long time. He tortured "Mother" every day, because he was unwilling, or wanted to tell "Mother" that he had been here.
Emperor Yongming walked slowly to the chair and sat down heavily in frustration. He clenched his jaw tightly and clutched the armrest tightly. Anyone could see the pain in his heart.
After a long time, Emperor Yongming spoke.
"I, once had, two, children."
Bai Suyan turned around and wiped the corners of his eyes. Elder Weng and Old General Dai also had wet eyes and were very sad.
Emperor Yongming closed his eyes, suppressing his pain: "Qi You, I was pregnant with two children..."
"Your Majesty..." Bai Suyan said, "The dragon's body is the most important thing."
On behalf of the old general and Weng Lao: "Your Majesty, the dragon's body is the most important thing."
Emperor Yongming lowered his head, not wanting his courtiers to see his pain. Here, there is only his suppressed panting, and no one can bear to disturb him.
After a long, long time, Emperor Yongming raised his head, his face had returned to calm, only his eyes could not suppress the pain in his heart.
"Where is Yu Youguang!"
"The minister is here!"
Yu Youguang, the commander of the imperial guards, came in from the outside with big strides, stepped forward and knelt down on one knee.
"All the eunuchs and maids of Jingyou Palace, as well as the imperial physician, were all escorted to the criminal prison of the inner division, and guarded strictly by the imperial guards. If there is any news about what happened in Jingyou Palace today, none of them will be left behind. Yu Youguang, the matter will be handled by You are in charge yourself."
"yes!"
"The emperor spares my life! The emperor spares my life!"
Immediately, the eunuchs, court ladies and imperial physicians immediately knelt down and begged for mercy. Elder Weng, General Dai and Bai Suyan understood the intention of Emperor Yongming's move and did not intercede.
Yu Youguang led people to tie up all the people in Jingyou Palace, gagged them and took them away. Zhuo Jin was originally a person next to Emperor Yongming, so he was outside of this. Immediately afterwards, news spread from Jingyou Palace that the queen was poisoned and almost died. Emperor Yongming was furious, and ordered Yu Youguang, the commander of the imperial guards, to investigate thoroughly. Then, Emperor Yongming made another decree, in order to protect the queen's safety, he ordered the general's mansion to pick up the king and return to the mansion to recuperate until the queen recovered and the villains who poisoned the palace were caught. That night, Emperor Yongming sent the forbidden army to escort the queen out of the palace. What the people in the palace saw was that the queen was carried on the carriage and taken out of the palace, and the hand that the queen showed was pale and white.
The entire imperial palace, even the ruling and opposition parties, became tense due to the "poisoning" incident of the Queen. Concubine Jing and Concubine Zhuang replaced the imperial guards outside the palace, and Emperor Yongming put the two concubines under house arrest. Emperor Yongming's 12-year-old prince and 15-year-old princess were placed under house arrest together with their mother and concubine.
Hengyuanhou's mansion was surrounded by the imperial army, and such a thing happened in the harem, and everyone easily connected the two together. After the Queen entered the General's Mansion, Emperor Yongming arrived together dressed as an imperial guard. In the capital, if there is any place that is the safest for Dai Qiyou, it will only be the General's Mansion. The General's Mansion is monolithic, and it is difficult for outsiders to set up their eyes and ears. The queen this time is equivalent to another miscarriage, so she must rest.
The old general did not arrange the Queen in the Heming Courtyard where he lived before entering the palace, but in the very quiet Ansi Courtyard in the mansion. This courtyard was originally the residence of Dai Zhanan, the younger brother of Dai Zhanxiao, the grandson of General Dai. Since Dai Zhanan disappeared when he was five years old, the courtyard has been empty and has been renamed "Ansiyuan". Every day someone comes to clean it, and Su Chenyi, Dai Zhanxiao and Dai Zhanan's younger father, often come here to sit. For this child who has been missing for more than ten years, the Dai family has never given up searching.
It is quiet here, and it is close to the courtyard where Su Chenyi lives. Su Chenyi is the only male wife of the generation of the Dai family, and it is most suitable for him to accompany the queen.
Qi You, the descendant of the king, has been sleeping deeply, he is too tired. Emperor Yongming was not tired, he stood by the bed and watched him wake up. Zhuo Jin, who came with him, commanded the servants sent by the Dai family to clean up the room, and put away the things the queen used to use one by one, as well as the medicines and Guyuan ointment that the queen would take every day. .
"emperor."
General Dai, Mrs. Bai, Bai Suyan, Weng Lao, Dai Mingge, Dai Yingru, Su Chenyi and Dai Mingge's wife Sima Yaru all came.
Emperor Yongming got up, everyone saluted, then the old general nodded to Dai Mingge, Dai Mingge went out, and when he came back, there was a person behind him. The man was not surprised to see Emperor Yongming. After saluting, he came to the bedside, put the medicine box he was carrying at his feet, and opened it. This person is a doctor in the General's Mansion, and he has won the trust of the old general's family.
The man first gave the queen her pulse carefully, and then checked her eyes, mouth, abdomen and so on. He checked extremely carefully, although the imperial physician said so, Emperor Yongming was not at ease. After the examination, the man stood up, saluted Emperor Yongming, and said, "Your Majesty, Chitose's body is fine. The remaining poison is completely cleared, and the abdomen is soft, unlike the previous Caomin examination for Chitose. If there is a hard object in Chitose's abdomen, But I still can't find out what it is. The imperial physicians should not have lied."
Only then did Emperor Yongming release the joy in his heart, and the others were also very happy. Mrs. Bai clasped her hands together: "Bless the Bodhisattva, this is the blessing of the Bodhisattva."
Bai Suyan said: "Your Majesty, you can relax now, we will take good care of Chitose."
Emperor Yongming sat down and held the queen's hand: "I have always believed that my queen will be healthy."
Mrs. Bai, Dai Yingru and Sima Yaru couldn't stand the atmosphere at this moment, tears fell down immediately, they turned around and wiped away their tears. The old general Dai patted his wife's hand, and the old lady Bai called the others out, leaving only the old general Dai and Old Weng.
Emperor Yongming: "Zhuo Jin."
"The slave is here."
At this time, Emperor Yongming had the energy to sort out some things. He asked: "You tell me about the queen's abdominal pain before and after."
"yes."
Zhuo Jin recalled: "When Chitose woke up, the servant brewed a bowl of honey grapefruit tea for Chitose. After drinking it, Chitose said that his abdominal pain relieved a little and he liked the taste, so he drank three more bowls. After drinking, Chitose said that Gaining some appetite, the servant hurriedly asked the imperial dining room to deliver food. Chitose said that his mouth felt bitter, so he drank honey grapefruit tea and drank a bottle. The servant could see clearly at that time that Chitose's abdominal pain was relieved a lot. Later When the meal was delivered, Chitose only took one look and said that he had no appetite and that the smell was not good, and then Chitose started to suffer from abdominal pain again, and then began to bleed, the servant hurriedly sent someone to find the emperor."
Emperor Yongming narrowed his eyes and said, "Go down."
"yes."
Zhuo Jin stepped back. The old general Dai didn't understand, so he asked: "But what's wrong with that grapefruit tea? The old minister drank it, and it was very refreshing, but he didn't feel any discomfort."
Emperor Yong Ming stood up and walked to the only table in the room, on which was a bamboo box containing honey citron tea. Emperor Yongming opened it and took out a bottle, Elder Weng cooperatively took three tea bowls. Emperor Yongming scooped two spoons into each of the three tea bowls, and there was hot water in the room, and the old general took it with him.
Three bowls of honey citron tea, Weng Lao said: "The old minister will drink first." After finishing speaking, he took a sip without waiting for the old general to react. When the old general saw this, he also took a sip. After drinking, he was puzzled: "Huh? Why is the taste different from the old minister's drink?"
Emperor Yongming frowned, and immediately took a big sip. After finishing the drink, he was also stunned: "The taste does seem to be different."
Weng Lao said: "It's sweeter than what the old minister has drunk. There is a kind, a kind... Forgive the old minister for his lack of knowledge, I really can't describe it."
Dai Old General glared at him: "If you have little talent and learning, there will not be many literate people in Dayan!"
Old Weng smiled and said, "My brother, I really can't describe it." Afterwards, he put away his smile and said seriously, "Your Majesty, could the 'bitterness' of Chitose today be due to this honey grapefruit tea?"
The old general Dai didn't understand: "Didn't you say that this grapefruit tea nourishes the lungs and can also detoxify?"
Emperor Yongming tasted it carefully again, and Weng Lao explained: "The citron tea sent by Shao Yun'an, 8 bottles are specially given to Chitose."
Dai old general: "Is there such a thing?"
"Yes. And after Chitose drank a bottle of citron tea, the residual poison was eliminated, and the flesh and blood in the abdomen were expelled."
The old general let out a low exclamation.
Emperor Yongming had already finished drinking a bowl, so he scooped up two more spoonfuls of grapefruit tea and said, "The queen's grapefruit tea is several times better than the one given to me, so it's no wonder he drank a bottle in one sitting."
"The old minister is bold." Weng Lao handed out the empty tea bowl. Seeing this, the old general drank it in one gulp, and said while chewing the pulp: "The old minister is bold."
The three monarchs and ministers quickly shared a bottle, and said on behalf of the old general: "Qiantui suffered a catastrophe today, but it can be regarded as the end of the hardship. In the future..."
Suddenly, he stood up, with a tense face: "Please forgive the old minister for being rude!" Without explaining why he was rude, the old general left quickly on crutches. Elder Weng also stood up with a tense expression: "The old minister is rude." He turned around and ran away. Emperor Yongming followed closely while clutching his stomach.
