The concubine Jinghua first-class poisonous concubine

Chapter 251
In the room, the movement just now did not disturb Yun Shu's thoughts.

After analyzing the piece of incense brought out from the Nine Dragon Hall, Yun Shu couldn't help but pay attention to the ingredients in it.

Although this thing can relieve fatigue, if it is used for a long time, it is easy to cause people to hallucinate and become dependent. She suddenly thought of such a possibility.

Could it be that the poison planted on Emperor Chen's body for a long time has something to do with his daily habits?For example, if this special spice is mixed with other things, will it become poisonous?
However, this is just Yun Shu's guess.

It seems that some foods cannot be eaten together, otherwise they will cause poisoning.

If this is the case, then this person must be very familiar with Emperor Chen's diet and habits, so he can take advantage of it and poison him quietly.

What could it be?Apart from this spice, there is something else that I have not discovered.

The candles in the room burned until midnight, and the quiet and beautiful woman sat at the table and did not fall asleep for a long time.

The next morning.

The door opened slowly with a creak, and Yun Shu felt the warmth brought by the fresh air and sunlight on her skin, and then opened her eyes, but her eyes fell on a potted plant in the middle of the courtyard.

"Chunxiang, why is this flower pot placed here?"

Chun Xiang, who was coming towards her, glanced at the potted plant, "Miss, Mrs. Gu came yesterday and brought something stuck in the cracks of the rocks and couldn't be pulled out. The maid was worried that she would be hurt, so I placed a pot of flowers."

thing?Yun Shu was puzzled, seeing that Chunxiang moved the flower pot away, and half of the gun head was exposed behind it.

"..." It seems that Gu Xunfang has created something extraordinary. "Order someone to pull it out, it's not decent to put it here."

"Yes, ma'am."

"I will enter the palace later. If Gu Xunfang comes, I will say that I have seen his weapons." Yun Shu seems to be used to Gu Xunfang's behavior. No matter it is day or night, he will always bring her a look, as if he wants to prove that helping him was the right choice in the first place.

However, he did make great contributions to Chen Guo, and Yun Shu could only accept his flamboyant temperament with a light smile.

The carriage drove slowly towards the palace, Yun Shu held the carefully wrapped spices in her hand, let's go and observe carefully today, maybe she can find something that she missed.

Inside the Kowloon Hall.

"Has the emperor woke up today?"

"Returning to the county master, His Majesty woke up once in the morning and fell asleep again after drinking some millet porridge."

Yun Shu and the Grand Duke walked side by side outside the corridor. The cold weather was gloomy, and a thin layer of frost had already formed on the grass.

"Hurry up, put these pots of flowers in the warm pavilion." Not far away, several father-in-laws were busy tidying up the flower garden. Yun Shu looked over, and the grand-uncle beside him immediately explained.

Those potted flowers can't stand the cold weather, it's been very cold these days, every winter they have to be moved to the warm pavilion to keep them alive, His Highness likes these flowers the most.

flower?Yun Shu looked at the dying blade of grass, "What kind of flower is that?"

"Those pots are evening primroses, which only bloom one after another from May to October every year. They were placed at the gate of His Royal Highness's palace before. Whenever the flowers bloom, it is very pleasant at night."

Tuberose?Yun Shu knows this kind of flower, the fragrance of the flower is really pleasant, especially at night, the fragrance will become more intense.

Yun Shu turned around slowly, and stopped after walking a few steps.

It blooms from May to October, isn't that about the same time as Chen Huang was poisoned?
"Master County Lord?"

"Eunuch, can you pick one or two leaves of that evening primrose for my daughter?"

leaf? "If the county lord needs it, he can pick it."

Yun Shu smiled slightly, thanked, and then thought of something, "These evening scents are usually placed in His Majesty's bedroom?"

"Yes, Your Majesty has been used to it for many years. More than ten years ago..." The Grand Duke realized that he had made a slip of the tongue, and immediately shut up, and smiled awkwardly, "This flower is very fond of Your Majesty, and although it is often It loses leaves, but it will bloom in the next year, and His Majesty is reluctant to replace it, so the servants take good care of it."

It has been more than ten years?And looking at the appearance of the Grand Duke hesitating to speak, I'm afraid there is another story about these evening flowers.

in the Queen's Palace.

"Evening primrose?"

The queen frowned when she heard Yun Shu's words.She seemed to be remembering something, with a bit of doubt in her eyes.

Since the Grand Duke couldn't speak publicly, Yun Shu decided to ask the Queen herself about the origin of those evening scents.

"Those... If you don't tell me, I will forget about it." She had never cared about pots of flowers and plants, but now that Yun Shu specifically mentioned them, the queen remembered that those pots of evening primrose were paid tribute from the south more than ten years ago. It was just when the flowers were blooming. Concubine Mei liked the fragrance very much, so she stayed.

"Concubine Mei?"

The queen took a deep breath, this little thing can also explain the favor of Concubine Mei at that time.She liked the fragrance, so the emperor planted them in the bedroom, and the two of them fell asleep smelling the fragrance.Until Concubine Mei was thrown into the cold palace, but the emperor's habit could not be changed, only when it was very cold in winter, would she be moved to the warm pavilion.

"What did the county lord find?"

"My courtier heard that when the night camellia flowers bloom, they are actually poisonous."

"Poison?!" The queen immediately raised her vigilance, but she hadn't forgotten about the poisoning of Emperor Chen before.

"Of course, this is just my daughter's guess. My daughter has already taken a few leaves, and I will report to the empress after going back to study."

"No, I immediately ordered someone to send a pot to the Marquis of Changrong's mansion, and I will definitely investigate the matter to the bottom!"

Since it is about Concubine Mei, it cannot be slack.The queen's face was dignified. In her heart, Concubine Mei had already equated poison with poison.

into the night.

"Your Majesty, are your concubines beautiful?"

"nice……"

"Your Majesty, my concubine wants the stars in the sky."

"Okay, I'll pick the stars for you, and I'll give you whatever you want."

"Your Majesty, what if the concubine wants the country of Chen Kingdom?"

The beautiful woman gave a strange smile, Chenhuang suddenly opened his eyes, he gasped heavily, it was this dream again!Why, the words of Concubine Mei have been lingering in his mind these past few days.

"Come on!"

"Your Majesty, the servant is here!"

"What about the spice, why did you light ambergris today? You clearly know that I need to light that spice to fall asleep!" Chen Huang's tone was full of displeasure.

The little father-in-law was trembling, "If you go back to the emperor, the county magistrate Yongji said that the emperor is weak, and the fragrance is too pungent and not suitable for use."

What did the county magistrate Yongji say?Chenhuang thought for a moment, then he stretched out his hand and looked at his wet palm, "It's okay, take it out, otherwise I won't sleep well."

"...Yes, the servant obeys."

"Wait, open the window!"

"Your Majesty?" Didn't you say it was cold a few days ago?

"This bedroom is very stuffy, open it for a while and then close it."

"Yes." The little father-in-law immediately opened the window, considering Emperor Chen's body, he only opened it a crack.

A little white fell into Chenhuang's sight, "Is it snowing outside?"

"If you go back to the emperor, there will be a little snow just now."

Chenhuang watched quietly the snowflakes that flew into the bedroom with the gap and melted in the blink of an eye, so white and cold, another year has passed.

He was about to forget those happy pasts.

But what made his heart ache was the joy of what he did, and how many lives he lost.

Concubine Mei doted on the Sixth Palace back then, but she was not satisfied. If Emperor Chen accidentally met other concubines and said a few more words, those concubines would die suddenly and strangely. Randomly "encounter" Emperor Chen.

Looking back now, Emperor Chen felt that his heart was very blocked.

At that time, if the Empress Dowager hadn't tried her best to protect the pregnant Concubine Ya, who is now the empress, she might not have escaped.It's a pity that in the end, the dragon fetus was still born.

There are few descendants in this palace, Chenhuang is both ashamed and regretful.What he didn't understand was that he had already given enough to Concubine Mei, what exactly did she want?
Couldn't she be considerate of herself, as the king of a country, sometimes she has to judge the situation and cannot help herself.

Besides, her heart is really not suitable for being a queen.

Chenhuang knew that he loved her and could tolerate her. It was the first time that he had such a woman who could make him worry about her.It's a pity that God's will tricks people, and in the end, his retreat still couldn't satisfy her.

Thinking about it, Emperor Chen slowly closed his eyes.

In his sleep, it seemed that someone was caressing his face, and that familiar smell made Chenhuang's heart gradually calm down.

"Concubine Mei..."

"Your Majesty, do you not want to see your concubine again?"

Suddenly, he tightly grasped those little hands, "Don't go, Concubine Mei..."

I don't know who closed the window quietly, and the moonlight shone in. Apart from the scattered snowflakes, there was also a slender figure.

……

"Cough...cough..."

"Your Majesty? Quickly, call Yongji County Lord!"

In the early morning, the Nine Dragon Palace was in chaos, and the carriages in the palace arrived at the gate of Marquis Changrong's mansion on fire.

"My lord, let's go, the emperor woke up today for some reason, coughing continuously, and the imperial doctors don't understand why!"

Yun Shu tidied up her clothes, took her medicine bag and entered the palace.

The imperial doctors took the pulse of Emperor Chen one by one, but their faces were full of doubts.

The emperor just contracted the cold, why did it deteriorate so badly?Yesterday's pulse was obviously much calmer, but today it was chaotic.

"Did the emperor take any medicine yesterday?"

"No, no, in addition to taking the medicine according to the instructions of the Yongji County Lord, I only ate a few bowls of light millet porridge."

This is strange, logically speaking, it is impossible for the county master Yongji to make a mistake.

The faces of the imperial doctors were ugly, and Emperor Chen's face on the dragon couch became paler and paler.

"Master Yongji County!"

At this time, the anxious figure appeared at the door, Yun Shu's hair was a little messy, and the little father-in-laws rushed her along the way, and she roughly heard what happened this morning.

"Has the emperor ever woke up?"

"No, it's just that I keep coughing in my sleep, and I can't wake up the slave no matter how I wake it up."

The imperial doctors retreated one after another, but everyone noticed Yun Shu's tired eyes. It seems that the county lord Yongji is also tired these two days.

Yun Shu quickly took out her silver needles, lined them up, then raised her head, with a look, all the imperial doctors immediately retreated.

The Empress Dowager and Empress have also arrived, "How is the Emperor?"

"Reporting to the Empress Dowager, the Lord Yongji County is in the hospital for diagnosis and treatment."

The queen's face was gloomy. Yunshu only came to see her yesterday, and today the emperor's condition suddenly deteriorated. She had an ominous premonition in her heart.

"Prince, you will preside over the court today, so don't make it public for now! Emperor Xiao is still in the palace."

Dongfang Xu understood what the queen meant, and immediately opened up his clothes and got ready.

However, soon, the news reached the ears of some caring people.

In the cold palace, Xiao Yichen tasted the tea offered by the nanny in a very leisurely manner, "Your Majesty is really a good trick." He did not hesitate to do it. The condition of Emperor Chen has deteriorated badly, which shows that Concubine Mei handles things neatly and decisively. .

"Your Majesty's absurd praise." Concubine Mei smiled slightly. Last time, Emperor Chen was saved from danger. This time, she didn't want to take his life too soon. She wanted to torture him slowly so that he could understand the fate of betraying herself .
