The Biography of Concubine Wen Xi in Qing Palace

Chapter 327
"I don't know what the empress dowager wants to ask about the crimes of the two of them?" Yide raised his posture and looked straight at the Empress Dowager Renxian with firm eyes: "Tong's history has been verified, and the servant girl is innocent. I think the servant girl is weak, so I went to the imperial doctor to see her." , causing such a disturbance. If we talk about crimes, they are nothing more than privately handed down crimes by the courtiers, and one person will be punished for twenty."

"Joke! Why do you need a doctor (Tan Xie Lu Ru)? Ai's family is ignorant, and they have never heard of such a rare thing!"

Empress Dowager Renxian was so angry that her brows and eyes twitched unconsciously, and the corners of her mouth twitched like a smile that was not a smile. Will others follow suit? At that time, there will still be some rules in the palace, and the etiquette will be completely messed up. It would be the best of both worlds if the servant girl is responsible for [-] years, and the imperial physician casts off to serve the court."

Seeing that the Empress Dowager Renxian is relentless, and although her words are not pleasant, they are justified and grounded, and there is no way to refute them.

In desperation, the emperor had no choice but to agree to her rhetoric, and ordered Yun Chan and Bai Changqing to be taken, one of them was responsible for eighty sticks, and the other was cleansed as an internal prisoner.

The news was heard by Arjun who was serving outside the door, and it seemed to fly back to Wanyi Palace.

At that time, Wan Yufang returned to the palace from the Department of Punishment, suddenly heard about this matter, her feet softened, she got Shuang Ruo's support to stand firm, and then asked eagerly: "But what does the emperor mean? Can elder sister not persuade her?"

Aqiong shook his head in embarrassment: "The empress did her best, and even the empress dowager helped to talk, but the empress insisted on it, and refused to leave a way out. The emperor was at odds with the empress. She is obviously angry, but every word she said is reasonable, and the emperor can't protect the empress too much, so he dealt with it according to the Queen Mother's wishes."

"One person was punished with [-] punishments, and the other was castrated and became an internal prisoner. What's the difference between killing them both?" Wan Lai frowned and asked again: "Your Majesty, can you tell me when this will happen?" do it?"

"It was originally intended to bring people to justice immediately, but today is an auspicious day, and the ancestors' family law will not see blood, so we changed it to tomorrow at noon."

"Tomorrow. Tomorrow will be fine." Wanyu muttered to herself: "Tomorrow will be fine, there is always room for change in this matter. Shuang Ruo, prepare the sedan chair, let's go to the Punishment Department again."

Shuangruo and Aqiong tried to persuade her for a while, but how could they overcome Wanlao's stubborn temper?

I had no choice but to follow her instructions and carry him all the way to the Punishment Department.

Shuang Ruo took the silver and handed it to the gatekeeper and inner prisoner, and promised her two conveniences that she could see Bai Changqing who was detained at Ling's place.

When he came, he had finished his punishment, and his body was flogged with bruises and blood. Fortunately, he was still awake. When he saw Wanyu, he knelt down to pay his respects: "Weichen. Weichen pays respects to Concubine Wan. It's hard for your mother, at this time Still willing to come."

"Get up quickly." Wanyu Chongshuang winked, and after helping Bai Changqing to sit down, she hurriedly said: "I don't have much time to chat with you, so you can tell me that with your many years of medical practice , this time is someone's assassination?"

Bai Changqing stared at Wanyu with wide eyes, and said with trembling lips, "Your Majesty, would you trust me?"

"If you don't believe me, I'll let you be beaten to death." Wan Lai sighed, unable to stop him from saying a word of gossip: "This matter has caused a lot of trouble, and now the emperor has issued an order to deal with you and me tomorrow." Yun Chan. She will be killed if she is punished with [-] boards, but you will become an internal prisoner, and you will never be a perfect person from now on."

Bai Changqing was startled suddenly, but soon, his face returned to calm, and he shook his head with a bit of sadness in his mouth and said: "After all, I got her into trouble. Ma'am, this lowly life of a humble minister is okay to die, but I beg Madam to find a way to save her." Yunchan, we are really innocent about this matter!"

"You and Yunchan are both people who saved my life. I have served you for many years, and now I am so tired by this palace. It is this palace who can't help you." Wan Lai turned her head and looked outside the door to make sure that no one was there. , just then lowered his voice and said: "When your adoptive father was working in the palace, you especially remembered that he had practiced a strange medicine called 'Fake Sleeping Powder'. Do you know this thing?"

Bai Changqing was stunned, thought for a moment, waved his hands and shook his head again and again: "Your Majesty, this is definitely not feasible!"

"That's knowing." Wan Yu frowned and said in a deep voice: "The imperial physician in the palace is a decent doctor, and he is determined not to be good at it. The two of you have made a big mistake, and you can only survive if you make up for the big mistake with great merit."

Although Shuang Ruo didn't know what the 'Fake Sleeping Powder' Wanya mentioned was, but seeing the solemn expressions of the two of them, Bai Changqing was even more frightened, so he was flustered, and hurriedly asked: "Then what is the 'Fake Sleeping Powder'?"

Bai Changqing said: "There are flowers in Qionghai, and the name of the flower is the other shore. The roots of the flowers may grow with the pure land, form the flower marrow, and have the effect of sleeping. "Compendium of Materia Medica" records: keel, clams, and pearls. It makes people sleep. If the flower marrow is added, you can close your breath and sleep. The pulse is as weak as a dying person. If this disease lasts for a day, if there is no medicine to cure it, you will die!"

"How can this be?" Shuang Ruo was surprised, pulled Wan Yu's skirt and tried to persuade: "This thing is too dangerous, empress."

Wan Lai raised her hand to stop her words, and asked Bai Changqing, "I ask you, do you have this medicine?"

Bai Changqing nodded, Wanyan said again: "Is there a way to solve it?"

"Yes, but"

Wanyu forced a smile, and said calmly: "You just need to tell Bengong where the medicine is now, don't worry about other things."

Shuangruo stopped Bai Changqing and ordered him to silence.

At this point, everyone knows what Wan Lai meant, but she just wanted to risk herself in order to win by a narrow margin.

If he was sick and weak, all the imperial physicians in the palace were helpless, but Bai Changqing was able to save him, that would be a great achievement.

The emperor treats himself with sincerity, and naturally loves the house and Wu, so he will pardon Yun Chan and his crimes because of this matter, and if he is not equal, he will treat him differently in the future and entrust him with reuse.

But things are easy to think about, but how easy is it to be foolproof?
If something goes wrong and delays the time for Bai Changqing to treat Wanyu, then it will really be a waste of his life to go in.

Shuangruo saw Wanyu's insistence, immediately cried out in grief, knelt on the ground and slammed her head a few times: "Your Majesty, don't be confused! If Yun Chan knows about this, she definitely won't ask your Majesty to risk her life to protect herself! We As a servant, you should serve your master. You should be so loyal that you will protect the master with your life early in the morning! If you make a mistake because of this matter, not to mention Yun Chan and Imperial Physician Bai, even the servant and Li Yin will be together. And went with the empress!"

Wan Lai stood there, silent for a moment as if Shuang had slapped her, and then she came back to her senses, leaned over and helped Shuang Ruo up: "It is my blessing to have you here. I know your intentions, but if I do you For me, I will cause you to lose your life. For such a thing, I will definitely not just sit back and do nothing. And you can rest assured, after following me for these years, you still don’t know about Bengong’s temperament? If you are confused, you must protect yourself before taking the medicine."

She said, looking firmly at Bai Changqing, and said solemnly: "Bai Changqing, I trust you."
