Chapter 323
Zhang Yuyan left the Shangguan Mansion with a calm face, as if she had just chatted with Princess Qianqian for a while, and did not let anyone notice the change in her inner emotions.

Back at the mansion, Zhang Chu also knew about Qianqian looking for her, so he called her over to ask about the situation.

After all, Zhang Yuyan had no relationship with Princess Qianqian before, so at this moment, Princess Qianqian suddenly went to Zhang Yuyan, which was a bit suspicious.

Zhang Yuyan had already thought about the answer on the way back.

"The princess also knows that the empress is in poor health, but due to her status, it is not good for her to enter the palace to visit the empress. Knowing that I was summoned by the empress, she wanted to ask me about the situation." Zhang Yuyan said.

Zhang Chu was wearing ordinary clothes, sitting on the Taishi chair, nodded and said, "Then what did you say?"

"I can only report the truth. When the empress summoned me into the palace, she looked very good and discussed a lot of things with me with great interest. I didn't see any abnormalities at all. I don't know what happened to the empress this time. She suddenly became ill, and Princess Qianqian seemed very worried about the Empress, which is really incomprehensible, when Empress Shangguan was so bold, Princess Qianqian was not involved much, and Empress Mo took great care of her." Zhang Yuyan said.

"That's because Empress Mo pretended to be a maidservant to serve Princess Qianqian before. It's not too much to fall in love with each other for a long time. Besides, Princess Qianqian doesn't know what Empress Shangguan has done. Those who don't know are innocent." Zhang Chu said to the palace officials. Knowing everything well, he replied casually.

Zhang Yuyan's eyes moved slightly, "I can't say that Princess Qianqian is completely innocent, it can only be that Empress Mo has a big heart. Such a woman is really rare. It's a pity why Empress Mo became like this? I think if the emperor loses Mo this time... Queen, it must be a big blow."

hit?Zhang Chu doesn't care, what can an emperor who can't stand even a small blow expect him to do, besides, this time Mo Qingli died of serious illness is a good opportunity, one that makes his Zhang family completely integrated with the royal family Opportunity.

"You can be the queen only after she dies." Zhang Chu said frankly.

Zhang Yuyan’s eyes widened in shock instantly. Because of Zhang Chu’s influence and Zhang Yuyan’s beauty, some good people deliberately spread such rumors. Zhang Yuyan never took these things to heart, and thought that Zhang Chu would not let them go either. In my heart, I didn't expect that he would actually do this.

"Father." Zhang Yuyan said with difficulty, "The emperor obviously likes the empress empress the most. He will not like his daughter, let alone marry her. Besides, Concubine Yun Gui in the harem is not low in qualifications. If Empress Mo really leaves In other words, Concubine Yun Gui is the natural queen, and the things in the harem have nothing to do with my daughter."

"Joke." Zhang Chu sneered. He is the general of Liukong, who has a heavy army. The ordinary princes and earls would be polite when they saw him. His daughter was very talented, beautiful and courageous. Why can't she be the queen of Liukong.

Zhang Chu has always been ambitious. If he had no ambition, he would not have come to the present. After several changes in the throne, he was still able to control the Zhang family and let the Zhang family still have a place in the court. Jun Shecang is the rational candidate for the emperor in his heart. , and Mo Qingli came from a humble background, and although she has great looks and talents, she is not as good as Zhang Chu's carefully cultivated daughter, and no matter what Mo Qingli said, if she forced her own sister to death, and her father was killed by Jun Shecang, how could she be with Jun Shecang? Cang is together, this woman's heart is cruel enough, the degree of ruthlessness is even greater than that of Zhang Chu, how can she be a model of morality in the world.

"My daughter is naturally the most honorable woman in Liukong Kingdom." Zhang Chu said in a deep voice, and patted Zhang Yuyan on the shoulder, "Don't worry, my father will plan everything for you."

"But father, I don't want to marry Jun Shecang, I don't like him at all, I should marry someone I like." Zhang Yuyan couldn't help but say it anxiously.

She had only met Jun Shecang a few times, and she had no intention of spending her life with this man at all. Zhang Yuyan knew that a woman's marriage was originally decided by her parents, but even so, she should marry someone she liked.

Zhang Chu looked at Zhang Yuyan and said: "Yuyan, you have to understand that the status itself is very important. Father wants to take you to a higher position. No one else is worthy of you. Our Zhang family also needs to stand higher Only when you are tall can you stabilize your position. You must know that love between children is actually the most fragile thing."

Listening to Zhang Chu's words, Zhang Yuyan suddenly thought that her mother was so cruelly abandoned at the beginning, was it because her father made such a decision that her mother and so-called feelings were not important at all.

At that time, if the father really led troops to find the mother, could the mother be found?

Zhang Yuyan's heart was a little cold, her father had always only had the Zhang family's interests in his heart, but the most straightforward thing was his own interests, because he wanted to hold the power, and wanted to say the same in Liukong, so he would not care about his mother, He doesn't care about her happiness at all.

After leaving Zhang Chu's room, Zhang Yuyan gritted her teeth and returned to the room, opened the medicine bag that Duan Ziyu handed over to her, and swallowed the powder inside.

Duan Ziyu also confessed that the medicine has been treated by him, and its properties will be much weaker than the original medicine, but the symptoms appear to be more serious than the original medicine. This bad strategy forced Zhang Chu to seek a prescription to save Zhang Yuyan.

The poison took place very slowly, also to get Qianqian out of suspicion.

When the dawn broke, Zhang Yuyan finally felt poisonous. She woke up thirsty and wanted to pour a cup of tea by herself, but when she got up, her head sank and she passed out, which suddenly woke up the little maid who was watching the night , the Zhang residence was in chaos for a while.

Seeing that Zhang Yuyan suddenly fell into a coma, Zhang Chu immediately ordered someone to go to the palace to ask the imperial physician to come out.

But at this juncture, all the imperial physicians were summoned to the Zhonggong by Jun Shecang. Although they are not needed in the Zhonggong now, no one dared to disobey Jun Shecang's arrangement to leave the palace and go to the Zhang Mansion.Right now the emperor is worrying about the empress's body day and night, if the emperor is offended, the lives of these imperial doctors will be in danger.

Seeing that none of the imperial physicians could be hired by the people sent out, Zhang Chu couldn’t help being furious.The news of Zhang Yuyan's illness soon reached Duan Ziyu's ears, and Duan Ziyu reported it to Jun Shecang.

Jun Shecang was guarding Mo Qingli's bedside. At this time, Mo Qingli had been in a coma for three whole days, and she could only use the best decoction to hang half of her life every day, so that she would not die for the time being. As for how long it can last, it can only depend on the destiny.

"Your majesty, let the empress rest for a while." Duan Ziyu knelt down in front of all the ministers and persuaded with tears, "Liukong can't live without the emperor."

For a moment, he uttered the thoughts of all the courtiers kneeling outside the palace, and they immediately followed Duan Ziyu and shouted: "Your Majesty, I implore you to come back and deal with the government affairs. Liukong cannot live without the Emperor."

Jun Shecang tucked the quilt for Mo Qingli, and when he came out, his voice was hoarse, but still calm, "The empress and I have a deep love for each other. After many lives and deaths, I have long been deeply concerned about my heart. Now that the empress is seriously ill, I I am very sad in my heart, I wish I could bear such pain for her, but this world still needs me to preside over it, so I will let myself stay in front of the queen's sick pillow for a few days, express my heart, the hearts of all my lovers, I understand, I understand, let's go, the imperial doctors are gone, let the two stay here."

After speaking, Jun Shecang raised his foot and walked to the imperial study, all the ministers breathed a sigh of relief.

Duan Ziyu walked up to Duan Ziyan and said: "Brother, you should persuade the emperor more, don't delay the government affairs, the Six Nations Alliance is coming soon."

"Yes, Grand Tutor Duan, you must persuade the emperor at this time." Others also followed and said to Duan Zi.

Duan Ziyan didn't know what kind of plans Duan Ziyu and Jun Shecang were playing, and he didn't care. He was very relieved of Jun Shecang, and he didn't believe that Jun Shecang would destabilize the government. Facing the uneasiness of the courtiers, Duan Ziyan said: "Don't worry, everyone, Ziyan will definitely live up to your trust." After speaking, he also walked to the imperial study.

Duan Ziyu sent the adults away again, and then exchanged Mo Qingli's prescription with the imperial doctors.

"Physician Liu, Duan has a question and wants to ask you all. If you have time, you may wish to discuss it with Duan. It would be even better if you can discuss a prescription for curing nymph disease." Duan Ziyu. "He had an eager smile on his face. Although these imperial physicians have medical skills, their status in the palace is not high after all.

This young prince Duan is the emperor's most beloved courtier. He used to be a brother who had a life-saving friendship. He respected them so much, and the imperial doctors were very grateful, and Duan Ziyu wanted to discuss Mo Qingli's prescription with them. My son, everyone will definitely push it even if they have something to do. If you discuss with Young Master Duan, if you come up with a prescription, you will definitely be rewarded.

The members of the Zhang family waited eagerly for the imperial physician in the palace, and they all breathed a sigh of relief after Jun Shecang ordered the imperial physician to leave. Unexpectedly, when they were waiting at the gate of the palace, no imperial physician came out. The people in the palace replied that the emperor Although the imperial physicians did not have to stay in the central palace, Young Master Duan wanted to discuss the Queen's condition with those imperial physicians, so everyone stayed there to discuss.

After such twists and turns, the Zhang family still did not invite the imperial physician, and Zhang Yuyan was already unconscious at this time, and the corners of her lips were black and purple.

"It's really unreasonable, even if it is tied, one must be tied." Zhang Chu slapped the table and said angrily. This Duan Ziyu is simply a stumbling block, but it is at this time that he is making trouble.

"My lord, it's a little strange for my subordinates to see Miss's condition." An aide who accompanied Zhang Chu sneakily said.

Zhang Chu frowned, "What do you mean?"

The staff looked around cautiously.

Zhang Chu waved for everyone to go down.

"When I was walking in Da Nei in the early years, I knew that there was a strange poison in the palace that came from the southern border. When I was poisoned, I didn't have any symptoms. I don't know when the poison will occur. When the poison occurs, people are the first to faint. Later, she will become more and more lethargic, and then die in her sleep, which is very similar to Miss's illness."

"You mean Swift was poisoned?" Zhang Chu raised his eyebrows.

The aide said uncertainly: "I don't know, I still have to ask the imperial physician to come over to find out. After all, they all gave the first emperor a pulse check. They should know better than the subordinates."

Zhang Chu's face was gloomy at this time. Although he didn't know why Zhang Yuyan was poisoned suddenly, the intention of the poisoner was definitely not above Zhang Yuyan's life. .

What was the purpose of that person poisoning, and when did he poison Swift?
