Xiao Qin'er complained in front of Liu Yi.
"The couple in the second room must have been greedy for money, let alone tens of thousands."
Liu Yi remained expressionless and ignored her.
She didn't care about Liu Yi's attitude, and continued on her own: "Last year when you went to Jiangnan, the father and mother concubine picked on you everywhere and forced me to call out the silver. This year the second son went to Jiangnan, and the father Why don't concubine and mother find fault with him? This is clearly biased."
Liu Yi said indifferently: "The concubine mother is partial to someone, and it is impossible to favor Liu Ping."
The second son's name is Liu Ping.
Xiao Qin'er got angry and sat in front of Liu Yi, "Why didn't the concubine find fault with the second son? Why didn't the second sister-in-law hand over the money?"
Liu Yi looked at Xiao Qin'er as if he was mentally retarded, "Liu Ping brought back more than 200,000 taels of silver from Jiangnan. How can you let the mother and concubine pick his fault? Go to Jiangnan for half a year and get a little hard work. It was the acquiescence of the father."
"Last year..."
"Stop mentioning last year."
Liu Yi's face suddenly turned cold.
For Liu Yi, going to the south of the Yangtze River last year was a shame.
He was heartless in the past, so he doesn't need to care.
But now, he couldn't care less.
Shame is shame, and one day it will be brought up and used against him.
But he didn't want these words to come out of Xiao Qin'er's mouth.
Xiao Qin'er was stunned, her lips opened and closed, and finally her momentum weakened, and she said in a low voice: "I just don't feel that Erfang got the money openly. Last year, we didn't get anything."
In fact, Liu Yi corrupted a lot of money last year. However, more than half of them are used to raise the outer room.
As a result, the outer room was sold by Xiao Qin'er before it was fully raised.
Liu Yi always had an answer in his mind, he believed that Xiao Qin'er did it, that Xiao Qin'er sent someone to kidnap the outer room.
At the beginning, he was angry and hated, but now everything is calm and calm.
Time has passed, and in less than a year, he can barely remember what the outer room looks like.
Thinking about it now, he couldn't understand why he was so fascinated by that outer room, and why he didn't hesitate to spend a lot of money and time on her. And because of this, she turned against Xiao Qin'er.
If you don't understand it, you can only explain it as being young and frivolous and obsessed with ghosts.
Liu Yi, who has become mature and rational, seems to have lost sight of his feelings. I am no longer as crazy about women as I used to be.
Before, I kept thinking about taking concubines and hugging left and right, but now it doesn't matter.
People are really strange.
Thoughts have changed, and feelings have changed as well.
Liu Yi looked at Xiao Qin'er, and said calmly: "You are not short of that little money, so why bother about it. I heard that my sister-in-law bought a large piece of land outside the South City Gate. When the time comes, you can invest some money and make a lot of money together." That's it."
Xiao Qin'er snorted, "It's not like you don't know what's going on outside the South City Gate. Whether you can make money or not is uncertain."
Liu Yi raised his eyebrows, "You mean not to invest money?"
Xiao Qin'er bit her lip, "It's not that I don't want to invest money, I want to see the situation first."
Liu Yiconscience suggested, "If you want to invest money, make a decision quickly. Only by showing enough trust in the sister-in-law can the relationship between you be closer. Don't wait until someone has made some achievements before you invest money and let people despise."
Xiao Qin'er was not happy, "I'll take the money out, but I can't get it back."
Liu Yi laughed mockingly, "Did sister-in-law send you this little money? She is willing to take you to make money together, it's not that she insists on your money. You should figure out your position first."
"Which side are you standing on? Why are you talking for sister-in-law?" Xiao Qin'er was very dissatisfied.
Liu Yi didn't get angry, but said calmly, "I remind you kindly, don't spend your money, but you don't get a good word. Since you have to spend money, it must be worth it."
Xiao Qin'er bit her lip and said impatiently: "I see."
"As long as you know."
Liu Yi picked up the book and prepared to go back to the study.
Xiao Qin'er grabbed him, "Where are you going?"
"Go back to the study." He said expressionlessly.
Xiao Qin'er looked at him helplessly, "Can't you stay?"
Liu Yi frowned, "Is today the day you set?"
puff!
Xiao Qin'er almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
She was pale.
Liu Yi's so-called days are the days of intercourse.
In other words, he was willing to stay overnight only when having sex.
As for the rest of the time, he is only willing to sleep in the study.
Is this kind of life considered married life
Xiao Qin'er said: "I just want you to stay."
Liu Yi shook his head and opened her fingers, "Let me know on a fixed date."
Xiao Qin'er's heart fluctuated, and she asked angrily, "Am I your wife? Liu Yi, do you have a heart?"
Liu Yi didn't look back.
He was full of sarcasm, "I don't have a heart. Do you have a heart?"
After leaving these words, he decisively left the upper room.
"Liu Yi, you bastard."
Xiao Qin'er was so angry that she cried.
…
Early in the morning, Xiao Qin'er appeared in front of everyone with a haggard face.
Today, everyone enters the palace together to greet Concubine Shu.
Ouyang Fu didn't want to miss the opportunity to enter the palace. So she went out with a big belly.
"Fourth brother and sister, did you not sleep well last night?"
Ouyang Fu asked with concern. Last night, she slept well and had sweet dreams.
Xiao Qin'er said with a blank face: "Thank you for your concern, Second Sister-in-law. Second Sister-in-law must have had a good rest last night. Her face was radiant early in the morning, and she really feels refreshed on happy occasions."
Ouyang Fu pursed her lips and smiled, "I am naturally happy that my young master is back. But the fourth young master stays with younger siblings all day, so younger siblings should be happy every day."
snort!
Which pot is not opened and which pot is lifted.
Xiao Qin'er gritted her teeth deep in her heart, but said calmly on her face: "Second sister-in-law really cares about our lives. Is it because of envy?"
Ouyang Fu laughed, "The fourth brother and sister are really good at joking. How can I envy the two of you who are up and down."
Xiao Qin'er's face changed, embarrassed.
Ouyang Fu was clearly laughing at her for arguing with Liu Yi.
She took a deep breath, intending to fight back.
At this time Gu Jiu arrived.
Ouyang Fu went up to meet her and got rid of Xiao Qin'er by the way.
"My sister-in-law is finally here."
Gu Jiu smiled and said, "Mother Concubine hasn't gotten up yet?"
"Already awake, dressing up. Has sister-in-law had breakfast?"
"Thank you for your concern. I have eaten. Have the second and fourth siblings eaten?"
"I've already eaten it. I wonder if the fourth sibling has eaten it?"
Everyone looked at Xiao Qin'er.
Xiao Qin'er straightened her face, "I've already eaten, so I don't need you to worry about it."
Ouyang Fu said in a moderate voice: "Sister-in-law, don't be surprised, the fourth sibling didn't sleep well last night, and today he has a bit of a temper."
Her voice was just right for Xiao Qin'er to hear.
Gu Jiu smiled knowingly, "Many people are angry about getting up. I don't mind."
"It's still big sister-in-law."
Xiao Qin'er gritted her silver teeth, did Ouyang Fu intentionally spread the news that she didn't sleep well last night
If it weren't for the fact that the other party was pregnant, she might really rush up and tear the other party's mouth.
Gu Jiu did not interfere in the conflict between the two.
She didn't have any time to spare.
Besides, even if she intervenes, will others definitely appreciate it
After Mrs. Pei finished her dressing, she ate a little something, and brought her three daughters-in-law, as well as Concubine Shen and Concubine Luo, into the palace to greet Concubine Shu.
…
Changchun Palace.
There is an incense burner burning in the bedroom.
It has a light fragrance, covering the smell of medicine.
Concubine Xiao Shu was recuperating on the bed.
Gu Jiu followed Pei Shi and went to pay his respects.
After not seeing each other for a while, Concubine Xiao Shu was visibly thinner and older. There are some white hairs on the head.
Concubine Xiao Shu, who was well maintained in the past and couldn't tell her exact age, had a cold, which made her look old and her real age.
"Greetings to your mother. Is your mother better?" Pei was very worried.
Concubine Xiao Shu coughed twice, motioning for the maid to help her up, and leaned against the head of the bed.
"I only entered the palace two days ago, why are you here again today?"
Mrs. Pei hurriedly said: "My daughter-in-law is worried about my mother, so I come to the palace to visit."
Concubine Xiao Shu waved her hand, "There is nothing to worry about, I will not die."
"My daughter-in-law is terrified, please take care of your mother."
Concubine Xiao Shu was panting.
She had difficulty breathing and felt uncomfortable.
She looked at the three granddaughters-in-law and the two side concubines.
"You are all here! Sit down and talk."
The court lady brought round stools and invited everyone to sit down.
Everyone was kind, and sat upright on the round stools.
Concubine Xiao Shu stared at Ouyang Fu's stomach, "Is it about to give birth?"
Mrs. Pei glanced at Ouyang Fu, and then said: "I will give birth in less than a month."
Concubine Xiao Shu was very happy, "I like to hear the news of the addition of the palace."
Her eyes looked towards Gu Jiu.
"Is Gu Jiu still not moving?"
Gu Jiu lowered his eyebrows and remained silent.
Mrs. Pei said for her: "There has been no movement for the time being. They are a young couple. In the past two years, they have been together less and separated more. No wonder she."
Gu Jiu was surprised that Mrs. Pei would speak for her. Transgender
Concubine Xiao Shu frowned slightly, "It's time to hurry up and give birth."
Seeing that Gu Jiu didn't move, Mrs. Pei glared at her. Isn't he pretty smart on weekdays, why has he turned into a saw-mouthed gourd today.
Gu Jiu received the signal from Mrs. Pei, bowed slightly, and said, "Daughter-in-law Sun will obey your mother's orders."
Concubine Xiao Shu coughed lightly, "You are the eldest daughter-in-law, you should take on the heavy responsibility. Don't let me down."
"My grandson obeys."
After Xiao Shufei said a few words, she felt tired.
She panted, "When will the prince come back?"
Mrs. Pei hurriedly said, "I guess we won't have the chance to return to Beijing until the spring of next year."
"yes?"
Concubine Xiao Shu suddenly clutched her chest and coughed violently, which frightened everyone.
"Ma'am, are you okay?"
Mrs. Pei hurriedly got up and patted Concubine Xiao Shu's back to relieve her cough.
Gu Jiu took the opportunity to step forward, clearly showing his filial piety, but in fact he was taking the pulse of Concubine Xiao Shu.
Huh
This pulse is indeed a symptom of wind-cold.
But she still felt something was wrong.
puff!
A mouthful of blood spurted out and sprinkled on the quilt.
Concubine Xiao Shu vomited blood!
Concubine Xiao Shu actually vomited blood!
Didn't you mean the wind and cold
Why does the wind and cold vomit blood.
Pei's face turned pale with fright, "Call the imperial doctor quickly, hurry up!"
Gu Jiu took out a handkerchief and wiped the blood from the corner of Concubine Xiao Shu's mouth.
A plain handkerchief, stained red with blood.
The imperial physician hurried over with a medicine box.
The bedroom is full of people.
Gu Jiu took the opportunity to retreat to a corner, took a handkerchief, and sniffed carefully to distinguish the smell.
She hoped to smell something from the blood.
If you can't smell it, just taste it.
Sure enough, there is a problem.
Gu Jiu's face changed drastically, and his heart beat faster.
She stared at the imperial physician in front of the bed, and then at the maid of honor.
Eyes sweeping over everyone
Where is the problem
Concubine Xiao Shu was poisoned!
This is Gu Jiu's judgment.
Concubine Xiao Shu didn't just suffer from wind-cold, but because poisoning caused her body to become weak and her resistance weakened.
When did you get poisoned
Where did the poison come from
Where is the poison
diet
articles for daily use
Who is suspected
Gu Jiu's mind was about to explode, someone actually poisoned Concubine Xiao Shu!
It's scary.
How did the person who poisoned him break through all his defenses, so that no one would notice
She put away the handkerchief, not daring to say anything.
Such a major event requires Liu Zhao to come forward.
Because she couldn't explain it, how did she know that Concubine Shu was poisoned? After all, even the imperial physician was deceived.
Judging from the pulse condition and the symptoms, it is indeed a common wind-cold. The imperial physician did not find that it was normal for Concubine Shu to be poisoned.
If it hadn't been for Concubine Shu's sudden vomiting of blood, she would have been concealed and almost misdiagnosed.
Gu Jiu's expression was gloomy.
She had already told Zhou Miao that she wanted to keep Concubine Shu safe.
Zhou Miao took the money and didn't do anything. Did he want to cross the river and demolish the bridge
At this moment, Gu Jiu is very irritable and vigilant.
Everyone in Changchun Palace is very suspicious in her eyes.
Because if she wants to poison Concubine Shu without anyone noticing, only those close to her can do it.
Because only those who are close can get close.
Concubine Xiao Shu drank the medicine and fell into a deep sleep.
Pei asked the imperial physician nervously.
The imperial physician also frowned. Concubine Xiao Shu suddenly vomited blood, and they were also taken aback.
It's just a cold, why is it so severe that he vomits blood
Diagnosis and treatment for a long time, did not find out the reason.
And judging from the pulse condition, apart from being a little weak, there is no other serious problem.
Facing Pei's inquiry, the imperial physician had no choice but to answer in a panacea-like manner, "Princess, don't worry, your mother's condition has stabilized. Take a good rest and recover soon."
"really?"
Pei's face was serious.
The imperial physician reassured.
Mrs. Pei snorted, "Then you tell this princess, why does your empress vomit blood?"
The imperial physician began to flicker, such as feeling depressed, worrying too much and so on.
Anyway, any disease can be applied to depression.
Mrs. Pei had nothing to do with the imperial physician, and she couldn't turn her face away, so she could only dismiss him with a gloomy face.
She was very worried, worried that something would happen to Concubine Xiao Shu.
Once concubine Xiao Shu had an emergency, she would be the first to bear the brunt. Not only would King Ning lose his mother, but he would also lose the support in the palace.
The emperor doesn't need to look at Concubine Xiao Shu's face anymore. The next time King Ning falls into the hands of the emperor, the consequences will be worrisome.
Everyone in the palace must observe filial piety, and other negative effects such as this.
More importantly, if Concubine Xiao Shu disappeared, it would mean a new reshuffle of power.
Prince Ning's Mansion bears the brunt and will be suppressed and eroded by various forces.
This is a situation that no one wants to see.
Mrs. Pei is very nervous, why is King Ning not in the capital at this time
If King Ning is here, she still has a backbone.
Gu Jiu walked up to Mrs. Pei and reminded: "Concubine Mu, you should send someone to inform the young masters to let them enter the palace."
Mrs. Pei came to her senses, "Yes, yes, please call Liu Zhao and Liu Yi into the palace."
In the absence of King Ning, her son is her backbone.
Gu Jiu walked out of the dormitory and called for Nanny Fang.
"Is there a way for Mammy to contact Zhou Miao?"
Mother Fang looked hesitant, "I have been away from the palace for many years, and the palace has been cleaned several times in succession. I can't guarantee that I can contact Eunuch Miao Zhou last week."
Gu Jiu bit her lip and said, "Then find a way to contact Jiang Shuyi first. Let Jiang Shuyi notify Zhou Miao to come and see me."
She had to ask Zhou Miao herself and agree to protect Concubine Shu. How is it protected
Concubine Shu was poisoned, this matter must not be simple.
Nanny Fang responded, "Servant, try to contact Jiang Shuyi."
Nanny Fang took more than a dozen purses from Qingmei's hand, which contained bank notes. Then she left Changchun Palace, looking for her past relationship, and tried to contact Jiang Shuyi.
…
The two brothers Liu Zhao and Liu Yi hurried to the palace after receiving the news that Concubine Shu was vomiting blood.
Seeing the two sons, Mrs. Pei said anxiously: "Hurry up and write to your father, no matter what, tell him to return to Beijing as soon as possible."
Liu Yi hurriedly said: "Mother and concubine, don't be impatient. If the father wants to return to the capital, he must obtain the permission of the emperor's grandfather."
Mrs. Pei said sharply: "Then hurry up and ask Your Majesty. You brothers go together. Your Majesty is so ill. If something unexpected happens, the prince must return to Beijing immediately."
Liu Zhao said: "The son will go to the imperial grandfather's place. What's the situation with your empress now?"
Pei's face turned pale with worry, "The imperial doctor can't tell."
Liu Zhao frowned. Isn't it the wind and cold? How can you not tell
Mrs. Pei urged the two brothers, "Don't worry about this, go see Your Majesty quickly."
Liu Yi looked at Liu Zhao, "Brother, let's go see the emperor's grandfather together."
Liu Zhao nodded, and walked outside first.
Gu Jiu chased after him, "Wait!"
"If sister-in-law has something to say, why don't we talk about it when we come back." Liu Yi was a little impatient.
Gu Jiu said, "Just say a few words."
She pulled Liu Zhao to the side, and whispered in her ear, "Your Majesty is poisoned, not wind-cold."
Liu Zhao's face darkened, "Are you sure?"
Gu Jiu said with certainty: "It's a very mysterious poison, you can't see it from the outside at all. If it wasn't for the empress to vomit blood, I wouldn't have discovered it."
"Is there a solution?"
"I'll figure it out. It's up to you to decide what to do about it."
Liu Zhao nodded, "I have my own opinion on this matter."
