Sheng Chong Concubine

Chapter 398 Poison-ridden, Seven Spirit Herbs (1)
"Your Majesty, my heart is not here..."

The old man said these words inexplicably, the old man looked at him suspiciously, thinking that the old man today is really strange.

After a while, the old man raised his feet again and walked forward.

"Do you know that Old Princess Luo is coming to Beijing soon?"

The old man was surprised again, too many things happened today, first there were rumors, then the inexplicable words that Mingyue hadn't finished just now, and now the old man is even more inexplicable.The old man simply couldn't figure it out.

But Old Princess Luo?
"You mean Princess Jinghua?"

The old lady nodded silently, "The emperor has not appointed a prince, and the princes seem to be calm on the surface, but they are secretly turbulent. The old princess Luo enters the palace at this time, I am afraid that the motive is not pure."

"Father is suspicious. Today's rumors are related to the palace?" After all, he has been in the Ministry of Criminal Justice for so many years, and the elder immediately turned around with a serious expression on his face.

"But what does this have to do with Mingyue?"

The old man glanced at him with deep eyes.

"Have you forgotten what Prince Rong's mansion said yesterday?"

The elder was a little annoyed, "So what? Didn't the Qiu family marry into Prince Rong's mansion? Besides, few people knew about that matter. Now that it's spread, it must be related to Prince Rong's mansion."

When he said this, he was a little bit aggrieved, "Mingyue was still in the boudoir, and you didn't make a clear promise to Prince Rong that day, and my Qiu family didn't need to rely on my daughter to gain power. Prince Rong just watched the rumors spread and ignored them, Isn't this intentional to ruin Mingyue's reputation? With such a family, how can Mingyue be happy after marrying?"

The old lady said, "This matter should be related to Prince Rong's son."

The elder was taken aback, "How can father be sure?"

The old man's eyes were a little unpredictable, "Mingyue, maybe I can only marry into Prince Rong's mansion."

The old man stared blankly, but when he looked up, he had already arrived at Qiu Mingyun's yard.

After Aunt Yu died, Qiu Mingyun lived in Bisongyuan, wanting to feel the taste of her biological mother's past here all the time.Qiu Mingrong stayed close to her so that it was convenient for her to take care of her at any time.But at this moment, the Bisong Garden was overcrowded, and the maids came in and out with nervous and worried expressions.The thick and pungent smell of herbs filled the room like a thick fog, and there was a faint smell of blood.Behind the ebony carved and embroidered screen was a crowd of figures, mixed with Qiu Mingrong's anxious whispers and faint cries.

"Ming Yun, wake up, wake up..."

The third lady sat on the head of the bed, her face was worried and her eyes were filled with anger.The government doctor stood aside, his forehead dripping with cold sweat.Standing on the other side was Qiu Mingjin. He looked at Qiu Mingyun lying on the bed with a pale face and dark purple lips, and for the first time, he showed a bit of distress in those eyes that could only see women.

"Is the medicine still not ready?"

Qiu Mingrong was about to speak when he heard footsteps walking in hastily.

"How is Eighth Sister?"

It is Qiu Mingyue.

Qiu Mingrong's eyes lit up and then disappeared, and he turned around to look at her.

"Fifth Sister, Ming Yun she...she..."

She held Qiu Mingyue's hand tightly. If Qiu Mingyue's hand wasn't wrapped in a thick bandage, her hand would probably have been pinched to bleed.Qiu Mingyue patted her hand and comforted her softly.

"Don't worry, it's fine."

The third lady was a little surprised when she saw Qiu Mingyue.

"Mingyue, why are you here?"

Qiu Mingyue said: "Just now my grandfather and father asked me to go to the study to talk about some things, but I heard that my eighth sister's old illness had relapsed, and it was very serious, so I rushed here. What's going on? Didn't my eighth sister have been born in the womb? Is it a hidden disease? Why did it become poisoned again? Doctor Chen, what is going on? You were the one who diagnosed and treated the eighth younger sister’s illness before, why did she suddenly become poisoned today when she was fine before?”

Anxious tone, with compelling anger and questioning.

Dr. Chen's legs gave way, and he immediately fell to his knees, his face pale as paper.

"Fifth... Miss Fifth, I... I... I don't know what's going on. When I checked Miss Eight's pulse before, there was no abnormality except Qi and blood deficiency. But today I don't know what happened, and I suddenly found out that it was poisoning. Yes. The poison in Miss Ba is very powerful, it will not kill people immediately, it will only slowly corrode the vitality of the body, and take away the vitality little by little. The reason why I have not found the slightest abnormality in these years is because the poison in Miss Ba's body is overwhelmed. A drug that has been taken for a long time has been suppressed. That drug is also a chronic poison. The two poisons are mutually reinforcing and counteracting each other. However, the amount and time of boiling the medicine are very precise, so I haven't noticed it in the past few years."

He wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, and continued: "I don't know why today, but the dose of medicine that Eighth Miss took suddenly increased by more than two times. The two medicines collided in the body, and the proportion of ingredients was uneven. The poison co-occurs, so it is so obvious. If it is not discovered at an auspicious time, I am afraid that life will be in danger."

Qiu Mingrong's suppressed crying became louder, full of grief and hatred.

"Ming Yun, wake up, Ming Yun..."

Qiu Mingyue's phoenix eyes flashed, and she looked at the maid in the room who lowered her head and dared not speak, her voice was cold and cold.

"Say, what's going on here?"

Everyone knelt down in unison, their voices trembling and terrified.

"Miss Fifth, please forgive me, but this servant does not know."

"I don't know?" Qiu Mingyue was furious, she slapped the small desk next to her, and scolded: "You are all maids who usually serve Bamei's daily life, how did you not know how she was poisoned? What use are you? "

The third lady turned pale when she heard Qiu Mingyue said that she came from the study.Qiu Mingyue knew about this, which means that the old man also knew about it.She had no room for relaxation at all.She tightly clutched the brocade handkerchief in her hand, looking at the unconscious Qiu Mingyun with gloomy eyes.I wish I could just strangle her to death.At this time, hearing Qiu Mingyue's roar, she suddenly woke up.Glancing at the servant girls kneeling on the ground and Dr. Chen who was sweating all over his face, she tried her best to calm down and said to Qiu Mingyue, "Mingyue, don't be angry..."

Qiu Mingyue cut her off decisively, "Third Aunt, why am I not angry? Why did Eighth Sister get poisoned when she was healthy? She has a delicate body since she was a child, and she has a gentle and kind temperament. Poison her? Hmph, this kind of person deserves to be cut to death."

The Third Madam listened to her vicious cursing words, her face turned red and then white, her eyes also changed again and again, she opened her mouth several times to interrupt her, but at this time it was inevitable that she would be covering up.She always felt that Qiu Mingyue seemed to know something, she was pointing at Sang Huai and scolding herself angrily.But then I thought about it again, how long has Qiu Mingyue been at Qiu's house?How could she know these things?
