22. The Inside Story of Concubine Qin's Condition
Surprise flashed across Shen Momo's old eyes, but the surprise disappeared in a flash, "Miss Gu, I have heard a little about what happened in the Grand Master's Mansion, but I have to remind you of some things. It would be a big mistake to delay time because of illness, you must know that fire cannot be contained in paper. If you really lied to the prince, and the prince finds out one day, the consequences are not something you can bear."
Gu Qianxue nodded with a faint smile, turned around and said to Nanny Shen seriously, "Qianxue knows that Nanny is doing it for my own good, but don't worry, I say it can be cured if it can be cured, even if it is not cured for a short time, I am also sure that the condition of the empress will improve."
Shen Momo sneered and shook her head, then looked around with a serious face, "You all go down."
After hearing this, the surrounding maids all retreated respectfully.
Gu Qianxue lowered her eyes, knowing that this Nanny Shen was indeed not a simple character, and she might know some inside information about Concubine Qin's condition.
After the room became quiet, Mother Shen slowly said, "Since Ms. Gu thinks she can cure your mother's illness, then I will ask you, what disease does your mother suffer from?"
Concubine Qin didn't suffer from a mental illness, that is to say, she wasn't insane. What did Nanny Shen mean by asking this? Is she knowing some inside information or testing her? How should she answer
Shen Momo was wearing a gray cloth sash, with a dark blue lily skirt underneath, her gray hair was tied into a neat bun, and she had nothing else but the most basic hairpin.
It's just such an old lady in ordinary clothes who exudes a terrifying majesty from time to time.
The atmosphere suddenly froze.
Gu Qianxue stood quietly on the side of the large carved bed, with her eyes downcast, under the slight smoke from the medicine in the room, she felt like she was standing in a peerless world.
Dan Zhu's lips parted slightly, "Does Nanny want to hear the truth, or a lie?"
Mother Shen sneered, "Of course it's the truth. I'm old, can't I still joke with you, a yellow-haired girl?"
Gu Qianxue nodded, then raised her eyes, which sparkled sharply between the thick eyelashes. "The empress is poisoned."
"!" Nanny Shen frowned suddenly, and there was murderous intent in her old eyes.
Gu Qianxue chuckled, "Mother is really contradictory, if I don't see your mother's illness, you will kill me for deceiving King Li; if I see your mother's illness, you will kill me for silence. No matter the truth or lies, I have no way to survive. Aren’t you just like King Li? It’s just that I don’t understand. I pushed King Li into the water, and it’s understandable for King Li to kill me. Wu Qiu, why are you doing this? Since you don’t want your mother to recover from her illness, and since you are afraid that the truth will be seen by others, wouldn’t it be better not to let me see your illness?”
Those words left Nanny Shen speechless.
Gu Qianxue glanced at Shen Momo lightly, "Actually, I'm not very afraid of King Li."
Mother Shen was taken aback for a moment, and then there was disdain in her eyes, "Oh?"
Gu Qianxue spread her hands, "Although I, Gu Qianxue, am not an important princess or princess, my father is also a second-rank official, and my grandfather is the Grand Marshal of Zhenyuan. If King Li is not afraid of trouble, he can kill me. Now I take the risk I came here to treat my mother, I just don't want to drag my grandfather and mother with me."
With that said, Gu Qianxue took a deep look at Concubine Qin who was sleeping on the bed. "King Li tried every means to save his mother, so why not me, Gu Qianxue? In the end, we are just poor children who cannot do without our mother."
After hearing this, Shen Momo finally relaxed her brows and let out a long sigh, "My dear boy, you can treat your empress first, as long as you do your best, even if you can't cure your empress, I will try my best to keep you safe."
Gu Qianxue really can't bear to part with the cheap mother Zhao in this life? This is really out of the question.
Gu Qianxue was also betting on a woman's nature and mother's love. Obviously, she won.
The identity of the person who poisoned Concubine Qin can be guessed without even thinking about it. It is probably a few people in the harem. She doesn't want to know who it is, she just wants to save her own life and live in peace.
With permission, Gu Qianxue took out the diagnostic equipment she made earlier and rediagnosed Concubine Qin.
That bamboo tube is a simple stethoscope, used to listen to the inner voice.
Because of Gu Qianxue's female identity, she has a unique advantage in diagnosing Concubine Qin - she can observe all of Concubine Qin's physical characteristics at close range and without any scruples, through breathing, heartbeat, heartbeat, and body surface characteristics, even if she cannot know The name of the disease can also predict the direction of treatment.
"Miss Gu, are you going to use your old body to call the maid in?" Mother Shen asked.
"No, they came in, but they got in the way instead." Gu Qianxue's face remained unchanged, she looked at Concubine Qin intently with her bright eyes, and said calmly.
Nanny Shen didn't say a word, in fact, she was very suspicious of Gu Qianxue.
Even though what Gu Qianxue said was reasonable, Mother Shen always thought that how could the extremely mediocre young lady of the Grand Master's Mansion who used to have a bad reputation suddenly be able to master medical skills? What's more, such a strange medical technique uses bamboo tubes and bamboo hammers.
Gu Qianxue put down all the "medical equipment", stood up, and started to move her wrists and shoulders.
Mother Shen was startled, and immediately stood in front of Concubine Qin, "What are you going to do?"
"You have invited so many doctors, I think some of them are able to see the cause of your empress. Since you can't cure it, it means that the poison is not easy to cure. So, instead of continuing to struggle with the results, I might as well find a way to relieve it immediately. Sickness." Gu Qianxue's bones crackled, different from the rude movements, but the tone was always steady and indifferent.
For some reason, it was obvious that the other party was just a fourteen-year-old brat and a little-known lady from an official family, but she exuded a convincing aura.
This aura actually made Shen Momo feel that Gu Qianxue could finally cure Concubine Qin's illness.
After Mother Shen found out what she was thinking, she felt it was ridiculous. Laughing at my age, I have such a childish fantasy.
"You're right, but what does Miss Gu plan to do?" Mother Shen asked.
"Just now I did a knee jerk test for my mother, and found that her muscle spindles, tendons, and neurons are fine. This is a good sign, indicating that her body has not been fatally damaged, especially her spine and spinal cord." Gu Qianxue said While speaking, she took off the coat on Concubine Qin's body.
Mother Shen stared at all this in astonishment, but did not stop it for a while.
While preparing for the activities, Gu Qianxue continued to explain. "Poison, regardless of its degree of toxicity or type, is no more than a few types, that is, it acts on the nerves, on the blood, and on the muscles. The person who poisoned the concubine Qin did not reveal his identity, and the poison is a chronic poison. , the potency of the medicine will not be too strong, this is fortunate; but the empress has been poisoned for too long, this is unfortunate... "
Shen Momo couldn't help interrupting, "Wait, Miss Gu, you've made me dizzy from talking about it, so just say it directly, what are you going to do?"
At this time, Gu Qianxue had already taken off Concubine Qin's coat, turned around, and said to Nanny Shen seriously, "It's very simple, massage."
