Under the Empress Dowager, all members will be King

Chapter 44 It's three-point poison

Aunt Fang lifted Concubine Zhen's feet to put on her shoes.

"The empress dowager is getting old, and she hopes to have a little prince by her side. Does the empress dowager understand?"

"I understand."

The empress dowager's meaning is obvious, how could concubine Zhen not understand.

He said that he lacked a little prince to accompany him, but in fact he urged Concubine Zhen to have a baby quickly. Once the baby was born, it would definitely be raised in the Palace of Compassion.

If Concubine Zhen wanted to see the child, she would be manipulated by the Queen Mother. At that time, the Queen Mother would use the child as a bargaining chip to force her to kill and set fire, and she had no choice but to do so.

Concubine Zhen changed her clothes and came out. Such flamboyant clothes and makeup made her look ten years older.

The queen mother was very satisfied with her attire, and said with a smile: "I need to dress up more on weekdays, so that the emperor will be willing to go to Changning Palace for more meals."

Concubine Zhen knelt down to thank her, and said in her heart, it's no wonder that the emperor is willing to come to Changning Palace dressed up like this every day.

Aunt Fang brought a bowl of decoction, but Concubine Zhen frowned and refused to drink it.

The queen mother got up in person, took the medicine bowl from Aunt Fang and stuffed it into Concubine Zhen's hand, "Ai's family found a famous doctor to prepare you a miscarriage medicine. From now on, you come every three days."

Concubine Zhen hesitated, because the medicine is three-point poisonous. There is no certainty whether this bowl of fertility medicine is poisonous or not. If it is tempting and addictive, it will be troublesome.

"Why, Concubine Zhen can't trust Aijia."

When the queen mother said this, the meaning was obvious, and she urged her to drink the medicine quickly.

Concubine Zhen pinched her nose, drank the birth control medicine in one gulp, and planned to return to Changning Palace to induce vomiting, but the queen mother did not let her go at all.

"Don't be in a hurry, the painter in the inner court sent some scrolls, Ai's family plans to choose a few to hang on the wall, Ai's eyesight is bad, you accompany Ai's family to choose."

Concubine Zhen was restless, and followed the queen mother to pick out paintings.

A picture scroll unfolded, and the scenery on the painting was lifelike, including pavilions, rivers, lakes and seas, and lofty mountains.

Twelve eunuchs held the painting and held it up high for the Queen Mother to see, while a young painter explained it eloquently.

The eunuch's voice was crisp, and he knew how to play tricks, which made the Empress Dowager smile.

"This painting is called 'Mountain Song at Night', and it was created by Mr. Song. Mr. Song has been visiting famous mountains these years, just to find Peng Zu's figure."

Aunt Fang interrupted with the eunuch and asked, "Peng Zu, but that old immortal who lived to be [-] years old."

"Exactly. The night before Mr. Song painted this painting, he dreamed of Peng Zu. The owner of Songshan Taoist Temple had seen this painting in person and said that there was a fairy spirit in it. Mr. Song refused to exchange the Diamond Sutra, so he traveled across mountains and rivers and sent it to the palace to present it to the Queen Mother."

The queen mother smiled and said, "Mr. Song has a heart, and he should be rewarded."

The eunuch's nonsense was full of loopholes, but the queen mother liked to hear it, and the nonsense became the truth.

The eunuch got the reward, and the more he talked, the concubine Zhen gave him a warning look. Unfortunately, the eunuch did not receive the kind reminder from the concubine Zhen.

The queen mother pointed to a picture of returning to the boat through wind and rain and said slowly: "This man is wearing a coir raincoat and standing on a small boat with a bamboo pole in his hand. What is this little dot next to him? It looks like a child."

What the Empress Dowager said was not an interrogative sentence, but a natural self-talk. The Empress Dowager leaned closer to the scroll and watched it carefully.

The eunuch jumped out to show off, "Return to the Queen Mother, the dots on the painting are not children, but fishermen's bamboo hats."

The Empress Dowager turned cold, and Aunt Fang sighed softly.

"Green bamboo hat, green coir raincoat, if you don't need to go back in the slanting wind and drizzle, this is the bamboo hat."

After the eunuch said this, he was not praised or rewarded, so he realized later that he had said something wrong.

Kneeling on the ground and begging for mercy: "The queen mother spares her life, the servant deserves to die, the servant should not disturb the queen mother's interest in looking at the painting."

"It's okay, you go down."

"Thank you Empress Dowager, thank you Empress Dowager." The eunuch knelt and was afraid to go out.

The Queen Mother said: "Enjoy a cup of 'Meditation Tea'.

Aunt Fang withdrew and gave orders. Before Concubine Zhen went out, she could vaguely hear words such as dumb medicine and hitting the board.

Concubine Zhen returned to the palace and hurriedly induced vomiting, but most of the effect of the medicine had been absorbed, and Concubine Zhen's heart sank to the bottom of the valley.

Xiaoyu bit her handkerchief anxiously, "Master, this servant has a way to hurt herself."

"You said."

"The servant's mother once fell into the water in winter, and then she was injured and never conceived a child again. If your master doesn't want to be controlled by others, you have to be ruthless."

"I might raise suspicions by falling into the water myself."

"Slave servant's method of self-injury eight hundred can injure the enemy one thousand."

"Enemy?" Concubine Shu thought carefully about this sentence.

"You mean the imperial concubine?"

"Whether it's the imperial concubine or the concubine Yi, in short, it's for the completion of the plan."

"This matter has to be planned as soon as possible. You go down first and leave me alone."

Concubine Zhen was lying against the wall, her eyes fluctuating, she drank bowls of unknown birth control medicine, and she didn't know what hidden disease would be left behind.

It's better to pretend to fall into the water. As long as you hurt your body, the queen mother will not force her to have a child.

A huge conspiracy was brewing in Concubine Shu's mind, and she didn't notice the emperor's arrival at all.

Zhu Dunyi looked at her for a while, but Concubine Shu didn't look back.

The emperor got up to leave, and when he passed the threshold, two short-legged cats yelled at him, and Concubine Shu turned her head.

"Your Majesty, why are you here?"

"The queen mother said that you are in a bad mood recently, so I came to see you specially."

"Has the emperor had dinner?"

"Used."

The two had nothing to say after exchanging pleasantries, they were polite, neither close nor alienated.

There was a small bench between Concubine Zhen and the emperor, and no one took the initiative to move it. Concubine Zhen crouched on the ground holding the cat, while the emperor was tall and tall, looking down at her.

"I still have business to do, I will have lunch with you tomorrow, so you don't have to wait for me at night."

"Chen and concubine respectfully send the emperor."

As soon as the emperor left, Concubine Zhen began to think about her plan again. Concubine Zhen stayed up all night and came up with a seamless plan.

Concubine Zhen got up early in the morning and hurried to Qiwu Palace to greet her, Concubine Jin chased after her to talk to her, "I heard yesterday that a eunuch offended the Queen Mother, and today he is dumb."

"You also went to the Palace of Compassion and Peace yesterday, how did the eunuch offend the Empress Dowager, tell me quickly, so that I can avoid disaster.

"Some disasters can't be avoided. If you don't want to suffer disasters, don't go to the Palace of Compassion and Peace." Concubine Zhen was in a bad mood, and her words were stinging.

Concubine Jin was puzzled, and thought, Concubine Zhen must have gone to the Palace of Compassion and Ning to get angry, and in a few days the Empress Dowager should talk to her.

"Aqiu, send someone to watch Concubine Zhen."

"It's the empress." Ah Qiu supported Concubine Jin's hand.Concubine Jin walked up the steps, at the same location, in the same fine weather, she saw Gu Yinwei again.

Concubine Jin nodded her head, and Gu Yin bowed slightly as a courtesy.

Aqiu said: "Master, have you seen the dragonfly hairpin on Gu Changyi's head? The materials are not cheap."

"It's hard to buy a good heart with a thousand dollars. No matter how expensive the emperor is, she will be willing to give up the things she likes. Just wait and see. Gu Changyi is not a treasure in the pool. Once the Mid-Autumn Festival is over, her status will definitely be promoted."

"Since this is the case, the slaves should prepare the gift as soon as possible, so as not to be in a hurry."

"It's time to prepare well." Concubine Jin entered the inner hall and found her seat, while Aqiu stood behind her.

"The Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching. Huang Sishan made some mooncakes for everyone to try. You can take them yourself."

There was a porcelain plate next to the small table in everyone's hands, and the plate was full of pastries.

Da Da'er stood up to express his thanks, and Yi Fei took the moon cake first and took a bite.
