Divine Doctor's Daughter: The Imperial Concubine

Chapter 56 Who Prescribed the Drug
Qingdai kowtowed to Mrs. Ye twice when she heard the words, then gave Chu Ruoying a timid look, and then said: "Yesterday, the young miss suddenly called the servant into the room, and told the servant that Aunt Yun This time I provoked her, worried that Concubine Yun would be bad for me after giving birth, so I asked my servants to go to the kitchen this morning, and then secretly added medicine to Concubine Yun's anti-fetal medicine."

"Qing Dai, are you sure?" Chu Ruoying looked at Qing Dai with a smile, raised her hand and gently helped the invisible folds on the dress, and said softly.

Qingdai looked at Chu Ruoying without fear, and said seriously: "I am sure, miss, you said that this medicine cannot be given directly to the servant, so that when the servant went to the kitchen this morning, he met the winter solstice on the road and pretended to fall down. , when Li Xia lifts up the servant, he will give the medicine to the servant."

Madam Ye's complexion was not good, and she said, "Go and bring the winter solstice here!"

Not long after, Dong Zhi was brought to the courtyard, Dong Zhi saluted respectfully, and said: "My servant went to the kitchen today, and when I came back, I also met Qing Dai, but Qing Dai fell down on purpose, and my servant did not help her." she."

Mrs. Ye shifted her gaze to Li Xia, and said in a deep voice: "Winter Zhi, I remember you were originally the person next to Aunt Yun, and then the eldest lady."

"Yes, thanks to the great love of the eldest lady, the servants can have a place to live." Dong Zhi said without any stage fright, looking at Madam Ye with bright eyes.

Madam Ye swept across the winter solstice lightly, and said again: "Aunt Yun almost killed you before, do you hate her?"

"I don't dare. I have always kept my duty and dare not complain." Dong Zhi said firmly with her head lowered.

At this time, Li Xia on the side already understood that this was a well-planned plan from the beginning. Someone figured out the daily life of the winter solstice and used the route of the winter solstice, including the encounter between the eldest lady and Aunt Yun this morning. Premeditated!

Gu Yu on the side couldn't hold back her emotions for a long time, strode forward, pointed at Qing Dai and cursed: "Miss is not mean to take you, Qing Dai, your conscience has been eaten by dogs! Beware of lightning strikes! !"

"Shut up!" Madam Ye slapped the table next to her, looked at Gu Yu, and sternly said, "You are a servant, who gave you the courage to speak in front of the master! Pull me down to beat twenty boards!"

Hanshan Temple couldn't beat you last time, I don't believe it can't beat you this time!

Gu Yu has followed Chu Ruoying for many years, so Chu Ruoying would not look at Gu Yu being beaten in vain, but looked at the rough envoy woman who had rushed in, and said in a deep voice, "Ma'am, Gu Yu is only doing it for me, protecting the lord like this, but Ma'am Ying'er really doesn't understand if she wants to punish her."

"In Ying'er's words, mother is just doing it for your own good." Mrs. Ye's complexion was slightly stiff, her eyes were full of anger, and she said with a sidelong glance.

Chu Ruoying smiled lightly, for my own good?This is all for my own good, I don't know if my wife should pay for my life if she treats me well in the future.

"Father, Ying'er has a few words to say." Chu Ruoying stopped looking at Mrs. Ye, and looked directly at Chu Lie who was sitting on the side without speaking for a while, and said softly.

Chu Lie narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at Chu Ruoying, who had a calm expression no matter whether the situation was good or bad, from the beginning to the end, and his heart sank. If such a daughter married Jin Shizi, it would really bring benefits to the family. Well, there is also the madam who seems to be inquiring, but is actually aggressive. She married her because of the support of the prime minister's mansion. Now she is getting more and more unreliable. Yinger is now the daughter of the Chu mansion. The concubine Jin Shi, if used well, will bring endless benefits to the family, but this woman is just using tricks to deal with Yinger.
Chu Lie was not the kid back then, he only looked at appearances, but after a while, Chu Lie understood that this matter probably had to do with Mrs. Ye.

"What do Yinger have to say?" Chu Lie was silent for a while, the silence made Mrs. Ye feel a little uncomfortable, hearing Chu Lie's words, her heart beat even faster.

"Qingdai said that I was worried that Aunt Yun would be bad for me after giving birth. It's ridiculous." Chu Ruoying shook her head with a faint smile, and walked slowly in the room, her faint voice was extra clear in the room, " Let’s not say whether the child in Aunt Yun’s womb is a boy or a girl, it’s just a concubine and a concubine, what am I worried about, I am the eldest daughter of the Chu family, there is no doubt about it, and in a few months I will be the concubine Jin Shizi , these few months, Aunt Yun probably won't give birth yet."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone in the room was stunned. After thinking about it carefully, it is indeed the case. In a few months, the eldest lady will be the concubine Jin Shizi. With this status, pinching an aunt is like pinching an ant to death. How can she be so big? Those who moved Zhou Zhang wanted to kill Aunt Yun's child now.

However, Chu Ruoying didn't seem to see the faces of the people in the room, and continued: "Then I thought about it, who will be a threat to the status of Aunt Yun's child?"

Chu Ruoying's words seemed to be inadvertent, obviously she was talking about her own thinking and judgment, but she was secretly telling everyone who the birth of this child was a threat to.

"Qingdai, you said that I asked you to take this medicine, do you know what it is?" Chu Ruoying looked at Qingdai with a light smile, but her phoenix eyes were full of coldness.

Qingdai was stunned for a moment, lowered her head and pondered for a moment, looked up at Chu Ruoying, gritted her teeth and said: "Although the young miss didn't tell the servant, the servant opened it and looked, it's Shui Pinellia."

The smile on Chu Ruoying's face deepened, she looked at Qingdai and slowly shook her head, "Qingdai, you are such a smart girl, this medicinal pinellia is divided into raw Pinellia, Fa Pinellia, Jiang Pinellia, Qing Pinellia , Shui Banxia, ​​etc., and the difference is not big, even a doctor who has practiced medicine for a long time needs to distinguish carefully, Qing Dai, you know it is Shui Banxia just by looking at it, you are really smart!"

Qingdai didn't pretend to cry anymore, her face was full of panic, she didn't know how to distinguish the pinellia, she only knew that after taking the medicine in the morning, she put all the rest of the medicine bag into the water half Xia, only then did he know what was inside, but now he made a big mistake.

Qingdai's face was full of panic, looking at Chu Ruoying's cold eyes, she felt that everything about herself had been seen through.

"Qingdai, have you not told the truth until now? Do you think you will be fine if you bite me tightly? Do you think you are still alive if you murder the descendants of the Chu family?" Chu Ruoying looked at the expression on her face. Panicked, she didn't understand what kind of benefits Madam Ye had promised her to make her go so far, and she still didn't want to let go.

Hearing the sound, Chu Lie immediately looked at Qing Dai, and said in a cold voice: "Murdering the heirs of the Chu family must be executed!"

Chu Ruoying's words completely clarified Qingdai's thoughts. At the beginning, Madam sent her a message, saying that after she overthrew the eldest lady, she offered herself to be a roommate, but now Chu Lie directly cut off her life, which made Qingdai Suddenly panicked.

"Madam, you want to save this servant, but this servant still doesn't want to die!" Qing Dai threw herself at Madam Ye's feet in a panic, crying hoarsely, "Madam, after you said that Aunt Yun died, you raised your servant to be a slave." Tongfang girl, in a few months, I will mention my servant to be your concubine, and I will not let my servant die!"

Madam Ye's complexion changed, she stepped forward and gave Qing Dai a slap in the face, and shouted angrily: "Nonsense!"

Qing Dai was not afraid, she grabbed the corner of Madam Ye's skirt again with her red and swollen cheeks, and cried, "Madam, you must save this servant, if I had known that this servant would die after taking the medicine, I would definitely not have done this what!"

"Enough!" Chu Lie looked at the scene in front of him with a sullen face, slammed the table and stood up, looked at Madam Ye and said coldly: "Did you do it?"

Madam Ye's body trembled, she pretended to stand up straight and looked at Chu Lie calmly, and said seriously: "Master, the concubine did not do it, and the concubine was wronged!"

"Master, this concubine has been in charge of the backyard for many years and has never done anything wrong. This time, Concubine Yun is pregnant, and I have taken good care of her. I am afraid that Concubine Yun will be wronged." Madam Ye really came from a big family. Under such circumstances, he can still deal with it calmly, without losing his sense of propriety, and just a few words have shown his tolerance.

As soon as these words came out, Chu Lie couldn't help but feel a little guilty. Since Aunt Yun was pregnant, he had indeed neglected her a lot. He felt that this matter should stop here, and it was also to save face for her, " Someone, pull this girl down!"

Soon someone stepped forward and took Qing Dai out, and everyone in the room could still hear Qing Dai's voice calling for help in the distance.

Chu Ruoying looked at everything in front of her with cold eyes, and sneered secretly in her heart. Madam Ye still had a chance to make a comeback, "Father, do you want to let this matter go by pulling Qing Dai down?"

Chu Lie looked a little embarrassed, looked at Chu Ruoying and said, "Ying'er, this girl doesn't have a few words of truth, and there is no evidence, just deal with this girl."

Chu Ruoying gave a very faint smile, and said softly, "Father thinks the evidence is not enough? If so, Yinger can send someone to find the boss of the pharmacy and the servant who delivered the medicine. What does father think?"

When Chu Lie heard this, his face immediately darkened. He meant to cover up the past, but the eldest daughter kept biting her. It seems that if no punishment is given, the eldest daughter will not let it go.

Chu Ruoying didn't care about Chu Lie's attitude, she nodded directly at Li Xia, and quickly brought the owner of the pharmacy from outside.

"Shopkeeper, has anyone here bought water pinellia from you recently?" Chu Ruoying asked softly.

The shopkeeper of the pharmacy looked around, suddenly his eyes lit up, pointed at Chu Yun, and said, "This girl bought Shui Pinellia at the pharmacy two days ago."

"Oh? The shopkeeper, are you sure?" Chu Ruoying asked again as if she didn't believe what the shopkeeper said.

"Sure!" the shopkeeper of the pharmacy said decisively, "I think this lady bought a bit too much, and I specially reminded her, but who knew that this lady just left without looking for any money, and even called her several times. sound!"

Chu Ruoying nodded lightly, looked at Chuyun and said, "Chuyun, what do you have to say? Who ordered you to do it?"

Madam Ye at the side looked at Chu Ruoying with an uncertain expression, thinking quickly in her heart, Chu Ruoying's words were clearly aimed at herself, if she didn't speak up to defend herself now, it might be self-defeating.

Thinking of this, Madam Ye made a decisive decision, and slapped Chu Yun who was beside her hard, "Do you think you did this?"

Chu Yun was taken aback by the beating, looked at Madam Ye's sharp eyes, remembered that his younger brother was still begging for a living under Madam's hands, gritted his teeth, and said in a deep voice: "It was done by the servant girl. She showed off in front of Madam many times when she was pregnant, and in a moment of jealousy, she secretly asked Qing Dai to do it in Madam's name, Madam didn't know anything about it, everything was done by slaves!"

"What a loyal girl, come here, pull me down and hit the [-]th board!" Chu Lie stopped looking at Madam Ye at the side, and looked at Chu Yun, who was kneeling there with his back straight, and shouted sharply.

Chu Yun was dragged to the front of the courtyard, Chu Yun suddenly stopped, broke free from the rough envoy's hand, turned to look at Madam Ye, knelt down again, kowtowed three times, and said loudly : "Ma'am, all slaves are stupid. If slaves can't bear it to death, please take care of slave's younger brother!"

As soon as the farce came to an end, Chu Ruoying calmly stood in front of the courtyard gate, the cold wind blew by, and the corners of the dress swayed gently with the wind, and the plain clothes made her feel a little colder .
