Concubine Chongxi: Binding the Medicine Jar to the Master

Chapter 229 Concubine Ran's poisonous plot strikes
Holding the cup in one hand, Mo Li lifted Baili Jiuge up steadily, wrapped her arms around her waist, and walked towards Concubine Ran slowly.There was a little pampering in this short distance of twenty feet, and everyone couldn't help but envy them, but they also showed various hidden expressions.During this time, the county lord Mo Qing cut Baili Jiuge's face with jealousy.

Baili Jiuge didn't bother to talk to her, and came to Concubine Ran's table with Mo Li.Concubine Ran groaned with a smile, she was as charming as a ripe crabapple fruit, she got up and was about to greet her, but perhaps the gorgeous beads on her skirt scratched the teapot, and the teapot fell over in an instant.

"Oh!" Concubine Ran hurriedly avoided the tea.

Seeing this, Mo Li also bowed, several people put down their teacups and lifted up the teapot, two more maids came and quickly wiped the table clean, and changed a teapot for Concubine Ran.

Concubine Ran laughed and said, "It was a false alarm, it seems that I forgot to be careful."

Mo Li smiled slightly: "It's good that the concubine is not burned."

Concubine Ran thanked Mo Li with a smile.The three of them picked up the teacups again, and Mo Li took Baili Jiuge to pay respects to Concubine Ran, then took Baili Jiuge's waist and took her back to the banquet.

County Lord Mo Qing praised: "Your Majesty is gentle and courteous, isn't that right? Lady Ran is very lucky to have such a filial junior."

Li Yuheng, who was playing with Bai Yugui next to him, lowered his head and muttered: "Sweet words can cure diseases."

Naturally, Baili Jiuge heard this again, and almost laughed out loud.She picked up the teacup and drank tea, out of the corner of her eye she saw two porcelain flowers on the inside of the teacup.Strange, this is not the teacup she was holding just now...

Baili Jiuge was about to ask Mo Li why, at this moment, Concubine Ran, who was opposite her, suddenly collapsed clutching her stomach, and spat out a mouthful of poisonous blood!

"Mother, what's the matter?" Mo Xun's face changed drastically, and he got up and rushed over.Several maidservants hurriedly surrounded Concubine Ran, a little at a loss.

Concubine Ran's stomach ached unceasingly, she clutched her stomach with one hand, she was so uncomfortable that she almost passed out, sweat slid down her pale face, she cried out in pain: "I'm poisoned...I'm poisoned..."

Everyone was shocked, how could they have imagined that such a thing would happen to the happy banquet just now? !
A twisting pain lingered in Concubine Ran's lower abdomen. She kept her eyes open, and when she lowered her head and saw blood flowing from between her legs, she shed tears in horror, "My child, my child... help me! Your Majesty, Save the ministers and concubines!"

Mo Yang stood up and hurriedly shouted: "Doctor Xuan!" His expression was eager, which surprised Baili Jiuge.

She asked in disbelief: "Mo Li, Concubine Ran is pregnant?" Could it be that someone wants to harm her?

I asked a single word, but Mo Li didn't answer, only the bottom of those unfathomable eyes showed self-blame and unbearable for a moment, and it was fleeting, once again dyed the icy moon and flowers.He whispered softly: "It's just your own fault."

Self-inflicted?Baili Jiuge suddenly understood something, under the desk, the hands of the two were tightly tied.

The imperial doctor came soon, out of breath, he cut Concubine Ran's pulse, and was startled by the pulse: "Why is this poison..." Before he finished speaking, he hurriedly gave acupuncture and moxibustion for rescue.

The poisonous needle suppressed the spread of the toxin, and Concubine Ran's complexion and breathing improved slightly, but her lower abdomen was extremely painful. She watched in horror as the blush on her skirt became more and more, "My child, my child..."

There were already many people around, Concubine Ran was leaning on Mo Xun's arms, Mo Yang and Concubine Liang were also beside her.

The imperial doctor quickly took out the pain-relieving elixir and gave it to Concubine Ran, with a regretful expression on his face, he couldn't bear to say: "Your Majesty, Concubine Ran's poison is very strong, I can only suppress the poison first and then prepare it to relieve it." medicine……"

"Where's my child?!" Concubine Ran's eyes were shattered, her eyes stared like lanterns, as if if the imperial doctor dared to say a bad word, she would be bitten into pieces by her.

"My Majesty redeems my sins! Concubine Ran, please forgive me!" The imperial doctor was so frightened that he knelt on the ground, trembling, and said forcefully, "It's because of my incompetence that I can't keep my mother's child..."

All the color on Concubine Ran's face was gone, she looked ashamed and haggard, her face was hideous like a ghost.Roaring, she tossed and turned in Mo Xun's arms, and finally pinched a corner of Mo Yang's sleeve amidst the scrambling of the palace maids to stop her.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..." Concubine Ran hoarsely growled, her eyes shot at Mo Li and Baili Jiuge, "It's them! They poisoned my concubine's tea, Your Majesty, it's Mo Li and Baili Jiuge." What Li Jiuge did..."

Everyone's gazes were directed at Mo Li and Baili Jiuge in an instant. The two held hands tightly and looked at each other in unison.Under Mo Li's eyes, what Baili Jiuge saw was gentle reassurance. Those eyes were very reassuring, and even the slightest tension in Baili Jiuge's heart melted away, leaving only some doubts.

Mo Yang half-closed his eyes, glanced over Mo Li's body, and asked the imperial doctor, "What kind of poison did Concubine Ran have?"

While administering the needle, the imperial doctor replied nervously: "Report to the king, the poison of Concubine Ran is not... not caused by poison, but produced from non-toxic things."

"Please explain clearly."

The imperial doctor replied tremblingly: "The skills of this humble minister are not good, and it will take some time...to be sure."

Mo Yang's expression darkened, and he said, "Mo Xun, send your mother and concubine to rest."

Mo Xun supported Concubine Ran, gritted his teeth and said, "Father, it's clear that someone poisoned Concubine Mother's tea, and I beg Father to seek justice for Concubine Mother!" When he said this, his eyes were dead. Staring at Mo Li, anyone could see what he meant.

Concubine Ran screamed even more sternly, like a ghost demanding her life, "Your Majesty, it's them...they are the ones who poisoned my concubine!"

Even though the eyes that fell on the two of them became more and more strange, the ink dripping clouds were light and the wind was clear, and there was a faint coolness between the brows. The coolness was like a frozen mountain spring in winter. The coldness was pure and clear, and everything around them seemed to be surrounded The coldness invaded, and everyone felt a little chilled for no reason.

He said lightly: "The tea is baked by the concubine and poured by the concubine herself. How will the minister poison the concubine?"

"It's you... I know it's you, I know..." Concubine Ran tore her voice with difficulty, her lips and tongue were insensitive due to poisoning, and her teeth were bitten bloody, "Mo Li, you are too vicious... Poisoned the tea in this palace... Your Majesty, Mo Li is going to kill his concubine! He has already killed your child!"

Mo Xun glared and scolded Mo Li: "Little brother, I look up to Brother Wang so much, did I misunderstand the person? What enmity does my concubine mother have with you?"

At this time, someone snorted coldly, and everyone did not expect it to be Li Yuheng. She did not hide her jealousy and said, "Does the Third Highness really admire His Royal Highness? If it is true, why do you always hire assassins to find His Highness?" trouble?"

Mo Xun didn't expect to be stabbed by an insignificant person, so he hurriedly said, "When did my highness do such a thing? Miss Li, talking nonsense will lead to imprisonment."

"Whether I'm talking nonsense or not, the Third Highness knows best." Li Yuheng persisted in Bai Yugui, and pointed upwards, "There are gods three feet above your head, Third Highness, there is no impenetrable wall in the world."

"Stinky bitch, you—" Mo Xun lost his composure in an instant, causing everyone to exclaim and stare at Mo Xun in surprise.

Mo Xun had no choice but to restrain himself unwillingly, his eyes were dark and ruthless, if his eyes could kill, Li Yuheng would have been torn to pieces by him.He couldn't figure out what Li Yuheng's position was, and what made him even more guilty was that she knew something she shouldn't know!

Baili Jiuge was also a little surprised, he didn't expect Li Yuheng to speak for them, and even knew about Mo Xun's assassins.Could it be because Li Yuheng has been in business for a long time that the news is so well-informed?

Smiled gratefully at Li Yuheng, Baili Jiuge said: "Poisoning tea is not what Mo Li would do. You are Mo Li's family, and you know his temper, but you don't know what he is like." What kind of person?"

Concubine Ran was dripping blood from her lips and tongue, and pointed at Mo Li vigorously with one hand, and complained: "It's you, Mo Li, it's you... I know it! You made an excuse to offer tea to me... You deliberately knocked over the teapot, taking advantage of this Gong didn't pay attention, and poisoned my teacup..."

Mo Li said lightly: "Mother's concubine's words are wrong. Just now, the imperial physician also said that the poison that mother's concubine was poisoned was not poisonous, but produced from non-toxic things. How can I ask my son to be in the mother's concubine's cup?" What's the bottom line?"

"Your words are—" the words came to his lips, and when he was about to say them excitedly, he bit them suddenly.

Concubine Ran's heart trembled, almost!She almost uttered the contents of the tea, but she almost fell into ink!
Mo Li smiled lightly, his eyes were as cold as ice, "My lord doctor, please check if there is any poison in the mother's tea."

The imperial doctor has already started to check. He took out the silver needle that had just been put into the tea, and after checking it, he replied: "This tea is not only non-toxic, but also adds a little reed bamboo powder, which is good for health. The effect of..."

Mo Li smiled slightly and said, "Does the Royal Physician know that if reed bamboo powder meets flower tobacco, what kind of effect will it have?"

The imperial doctor was already trembling, but when he heard this, his face became even paler, "Return, return to His Royal Highness, if the pollen of reed bamboo powder and flower tobacco are mixed together, it will be a strong poison. Don't say it is The pollen of the flower tobacco, just smelling the fragrance of the flower, if you eat the reed bamboo powder again, you will be poisoned and hurt your body, if it is a pregnant woman who is poisoned, you will have a miscarriage..." As he spoke, he came to his senses, "Weichen I feel that Concubine Ran may have been poisoned like this!"

"Maybe..." Mo Li's clear and shallow voice, like the dewdrops condensed on the tiles in late autumn, splashed the coldness all over the ground, "Today is the mother and concubine Ran who invited Jiu Ge to enjoy the flowers and tobacco. What is the concubine mother doing?" Explanation?"

"Ben Gong—" Concubine Ran's eyes were filled with ruthlessness and anxiety, and she hurriedly said: "It is precisely because you saw that Ben Gong inhaled the fragrance of tobacco flowers that you came up with the idea...to use reed bamboo powder to harm Ben Gong's pregnancy! "

"A temporary idea?" Mo Li sneered: "Mother's concubine's words are too far-fetched. Since it is determined that the son-in-law did it, then let's talk about why the son-in-law wanted the mother and concubine to conceive."

Concubine Ran was speechless, unable to answer.

The princes and princes of the counties also looked at Concubine Ran suspiciously, feeling in their hearts that His Royal Highness really had no reason to cause Concubine Ran to conceive.His Royal Highness, the crown prince, is the heir apparent of the Great Zhou. Could it be that he is afraid that a fetus who doesn't even know the gender in the mother's womb will compete with him?It's impossible to switch to anyone.

Mo Li said coldly: "People are harmless to tigers, but tigers are harmful to people. If it is said that the mother and concubine are afraid that Jiu Ge is pregnant with grandchildren and want to poison the grandchildren, there is a good reason."

Concubine Ran's heart skipped a beat, and the cold air rushed in, so cold that she almost forgot that her lower abdomen was still in agony.

Mo Xun retorted: "There is a limit to whimsical fantasies. Brother Wang suspects that the mother and concubine wanted to poison Mrs. Wang, but she poisoned herself?"

"Isn't it!" The roar suddenly lowered, just like the bowstring suddenly drawn before the sharp arrow flew out, low, angry, ready to go, as if it could kill with one blow.

Big and big epiphyllum blossomed into a thousand layers of raging waves as Mo Li stood up, and the crane cloak lay gracefully on the ground, spinning like an undercurrent without wind.He was angry, obviously very angry, the sharpness that flew out from the bottom of his eyes shot chaotic shadows across the entire hall, piercing through everyone's bodies, and even terrified Mo Xun and Concubine Ran.

Baili Jiuge's hand was held tightly by Mo Li, and she looked up at his profile, which was as pale as jade and tense with extreme anger, she couldn't help calling out distressedly: "Mo Li..."

He turned his eyes, his gaze was extremely gentle, and in a blink of an eye, he stared at Concubine Ran just like before, and said word by word: "If I hadn't seen Concubine Mother pouring tea, she would put the powder hidden in her nails Peeling off in Jiuge and my tea, how could I deliberately overturn the teapot and take the opportunity to change the teacup? If you hurt others, you will hurt yourself, what else can the concubine mother say?"

Concubine Ran was so frightened that her heart was about to jump out of her throat. She was so anxious that she couldn't speak a word, and she was coughing because of choking. Her dark purple lips kept twitching, spattering black poisonous blood, "You, you..."

Mo Yang said: "Doctor, check Concubine Ran's nails!"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..." Concubine Ran wanted to stop her, but in vain.

After all, the imperial doctor obeyed Mo Yang's orders, he lowered his body, looked at Concubine Ran apologetically, and then stretched out a white handkerchief.Concubine Ran waved his hand away, and the imperial doctor had no choice but to say in embarrassment: "Concubine Ran, if you have a clear conscience, let the minister do the routine..."

Concubine Ran's face was ashen, and she did not escape the disaster in the end.

The imperial doctor wiped off some powder from her nails, checked it, and exclaimed in surprise: "Reed bamboo powder! It is reed bamboo powder!"
