The queen bullies me every day

Chapter 58 Concubine Zhang Vomits Blood

Xuan Jue and the Queen's expressions changed after seeing this dazzling Avalokitesvara, but what could they say?
First of all, Concubine Zhang's move can be regarded as praying for the queen's body, hoping that a miracle will happen that she will have a child with that body.

Secondly, if Concubine Zhang is punished because of this congratulatory gift, wouldn't it be announced to the world that she, the queen, is a 'wasted queen' who can't have children?
But facing this thing, the queen really couldn't laugh.She suppressed the grievance in her heart and nodded, and ordered someone to quickly carry the Songzi Guanyin down to enshrine it.

But in the hall, she saw the faint smiles on the faces of the concubines.

In contrast, Xuan Jue's silence made her feel even more chilling.

After receiving the congratulatory gifts, the queen was also very angry.

She raised her wine glass and said: "At the time of Qianqiu, I will toast with all the sisters. May my Dazhao be prosperous and the emperor live forever."

After saying this, he raised his wine glass and drank the full glass of spirits in one gulp.

During the dinner, the queen drank one cup after another of strong wine, and anyone could see the grievance in her heart.

After drinking too much wine, people naturally lost their composure, and then they raised their wine glasses and went down the hall, swaying their body to touch the cup in front of Chu Jin, and said, "Master Chu, I respect you."

Chu Jin raised his glass in return and said, "How can you respect your concubines at the queen's banquet? Your concubine respects you."

He drank it while talking.

The Empress laughed suddenly, and ordered Qing Dai to fetch a jade pot to refill for herself and Chu Jin, saying: "Master Chu is a good drinker, I will have another drink with you."

Chu Jin covered the cup with her hand, preventing Qing Dai from adding more wine for herself, "The empress is too drunk, let's take a rest."

"I'm not drunk. I drink very well. You don't need to worry about me."

The queen insisted on having another drink with Chu Jin, and Xuan Jue said when seeing this, "Queen, you are the mother of a country, and it is your duty to be dignified and elegant. It is difficult to sit and stand at the banquet. Those who raise wine and invite people to drink with them are losing their composure."

After hearing this, the queen gave a wry smile, pushed the wine cup to Qing Dai, and slowly returned to the first seat.

With a voice that only she and Xuan Jue could hear, she leaned her head on his shoulder and said: "So, the emperor never regarded this concubine as your first wife, but just regarded this concubine as the empress of Dazhao, right? "

Xuan Jue's expression was the same as usual, so cold that there was no warmth at all, "Today is the Empress's birthday banquet, does the Empress have to lose her composure so much?"

"If that wasn't the case, why did the concubine marry you for nearly two years, but you never touched the concubine?" The queen buried her head deeper, trying to feel Xuanjue's heartbeat, "The concubine knows that the emperor despises you Concubines can't have children. Concubines are useless people, and they can't spread the heirs for the emperor. The queen mother doesn't like concubines, and the emperor treats concubines with respect. However, concubines really like the emperor. Since I saw you The emperor liked it from the first time he saw it."

Xuan Jue straightened the Queen's head with his hand, "I liked it the first time I saw it, that's not like it, that's your greedy body." After saying that, he ordered Qing Dai: "The Queen is too drunk, and she made sober soup to serve the Queen. Use it, send it to the dormitory to rest."

Qing Dai Nuo responded, Fang held the Queen's arm but was pushed away by her, "I am not drunk! I have never been more sober than now!"

This sound almost came from the Queen's mouth.

Shout out the grievances and unwillingness that have accumulated in her heart over the years.

The singing and dancing in Fengluan Palace stopped abruptly, and the concubines and concubines who were laughing and chatting between the cups and cups also stopped, and they all turned their eyes to the emperor who was sitting on it.

A crystal light flashed in the queen's pupils, and she looked like she was about to cry.

And Xuan Jue, who was beside her, had a flat face, and didn't even look at her directly, "The empress is too drunk, so let's rest earlier. Today's Qianqiu Banquet is here." After finishing speaking, he got up and left the table, ordering Liu Qi to drive him by. went.

The queen fell down on the table and wailed almost desperately: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty, come back!"

However, such a desolate voice did not return the slightest response from Xuan Jue.

He went straight, and when he was walking in front of Concubine Zhang, he suddenly heard a 'poof', and immediately after, warm liquid spilled all over the dragon robe on his body.

"Ah! It's blood!"

"It's not good, Concubine Zhang fainted!"

One after another screams suddenly sounded in my ears, the concubines lost their minds in a panic, and left the dining table one after another, staying far away from Concubine Zhang.

Xuan Jue took a closer look, only to realize that the warmth just now was the blood that Concubine Zhang had vomited on her dragon bubble.

But at this moment, she was completely unconscious on the table, her whole body was like a pool of rotten meat, lifeless.

"Concubine Zhang! Madam, wake up!"

Among all the concubines, only Chu Jin gently shook Concubine Zhang's plump body, "Your Majesty, quickly find the imperial doctor, the empress looks like she has been poisoned!"

And the drunken queen had a layer of cold sweat on her body after hearing the word poisoning, and she became sober in an instant.

How could anyone dare to poison at his Qianqiu Banquet?
This matter was clearly aimed at himself.

But this was the first time this happened in the palace. Xuan Jue frowned, and told Liu Qi: "Order the guards to block Fengluan Palace, and no one can come in or out! Then go and recruit all the imperial doctors on duty in the imperial hospital, and take care of Zhang. Concubine diagnosis and treatment!"

The inner warden collected the meals on the table one by one, and the food in front of each of them was marked and put away properly, waiting for the inner warden who tasted the food to check one by one to see what went wrong.

The Qianqiu Banquet is a major event in the palace. All food and drinks must go through three inspections and three rows before being served on the table. It stands to reason that there will be no incident of being poisoned.

It can be seen that Concubine Zhang's complexion was purple, her throat was tight, and blood foamed out of her mouth, which was clearly a sign of poisoning.

The inner eunuch who tasted the meal reported to Xuan Jue that nothing happened after checking the dishes, staple food, drinks, and clear tea one by one, and the imperial physician who was consulting Concubine Zhang in the inner hall had also reached a conclusion.

"Go back to the emperor, empress. Concubine Zhang is not caused by poisoning, but a stress reaction caused by food allergies. Fortunately, the empress is in good health. If it is someone else, I am afraid that her life will be in danger."

Really, fat people have fat blessings.

Chu Jin asked about Concubine Zhang's situation and knew that although she was still in a coma, she would recover after a while of recuperation, so she felt relieved.

She scanned the food on the tasting table one by one, but she didn't see any shrimp.

The palace people in the imperial dining room knew the taboos of the palace masters, so they definitely wouldn't confuse this matter, but where did Concubine Zhang's food allergies come from?
"Concubine Zhang is allergic to shrimps." Chu Jin said to the eunuch who tasted the meal, "Check the empress's food carefully to see if there are shrimps in it?"

The eunuch who tasted the food ordered them to taste Zhang Concubine Zhang's food in detail.

Not long after, several people were shocked and knelt in front of Xuan Jue and kowtowed, "Your Majesty! There is no shrimp in Concubine Zhang's food, but every dish is mixed with light shrimp powder, which is not easy to detect." .For today's banquet, the concubine Zhang lost her appetite after drinking, if it is normal, the concubine Zhang will eat all these dishes, and I am afraid there will be a big mess!"
