Chapter 35 Mother-of-pearl powder... Is there something wrong with that?
[Let Song become so weak that she can only lie in bed and cannot take care of things. Prince Rui took the opportunity to take all the land and paving that the Song family sent to him! ]
[He even claimed that he was helping the Song family, but in fact, he used all the money to buy official positions for the descendants of the Xiao family! He supported their extravagant and licentious lives! He even gave a lot to Concubine Liu! ]
[Just like this, King Rui spent the Song family's money for eight years! Eight whole years! He sucked the blood of the Song family for eight years!]
[Song became seriously ill because of him and could only lie in bed, and she kept blaming her own body for not doing well...]
After hearing this, Xiao Ziyuan's face immediately turned gloomy and ugly.
He clenched his right fist tightly, and all kinds of thoughts surged in his mind.
No wonder my mother got sick...
No wonder the money my grandfather sent me never showed up...
No wonder Aunt Liu and Xiao Feng become more extravagant every year...
I understand everything. I understand everything...
He had heard Mingyue talk about it before.
After my mother married into the palace, she just felt a little uncomfortable at first.
She gave birth to him the following year, and began to suffer from illnesses.
It turns out that from the moment my mother stepped into the palace, a bottomless trap was waiting for her!
A beast that eats people without spitting out bones! A group of butchers sharpening their knives!
All of this was caused by his heartless father!
He was going to kill him! He was going to kill him sooner or later!
After Shangguan Sui finished complaining, he felt relieved for a while, but he was still more angry.
[This King Rui is such a scumbag! So despicable! What the hell is this! 】
[But I still didn’t dare to tell the truth to Xiao Ziyuan. What if Xiao Ziyuan just picked up the sword and killed his father right now? Although in the original book, he did exactly that when he grew up.]
[And Song, she has been in poor health to begin with. If she knew that the love they had for so many years was all fake, would she be able to bear it? What if her blood and qi attacked her heart?]
Shangguan Sui sighed.
As she was thinking, she suddenly noticed that Xiao Ziyuan's face next to her suddenly turned very pale for some reason.
His originally handsome face was now filled with hostility.
Shangguan Sui pursed his lips and reached out to poke his arm.
"What's wrong with you?"
When Xiao Ziyuan heard the clear and childish voice, his thoughts were gradually brought back to reality.
The rage and anger that were surging in my heart were inexplicably suppressed.
He turned his head to look at Shangguan Sui's delicate and pretty face, and a faint curve appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"I'm fine."
Then his gaze returned to the calm lake in front of him.
He must save his mother!
At this time, the main courtyard of Ruiwang Mansion.
There was a hint of smile in Feng Xici's voice, "The princess has recovered very well."
"I don't need to have acupuncture every day anymore. I just need to continue taking medicine every day."
Song's face was full of smiles. "Thank you so much, doctor."
Mingyue also immediately blessed him.
"Congratulations, Princess. Congratulations, Princess. You are in great health. The Prince and Young Master must be very happy!"
Song couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Ever since she gave birth to Ziyuan, her health has been getting worse and worse.
She has always been sad and worried about this, and feels that it is all her fault.
As the mistress of the palace, she had no energy to manage the affairs of the palace and could only lie on the sickbed...
Now she is finally feeling better, that’s great!
I believe that my father who is far away in Yangzhou can feel more at ease!
Song turned around and ordered, "Go and bring some tea and snacks."
Then her gaze fell on Feng Xici and she spoke softly.
"You always left after seeing the doctor in the past, but not today. You must sit down and drink two cups of wine with me before you leave."
Feng Xici couldn't refuse, so she had to agree.
The two had just finished drinking half a pot of tea when Taohong lifted the curtain and came into the room.
After bowing, he handed an exquisite wooden box to Song.
"Princess, this was sent here by the prince just now."
Song took the box and glanced at Taohong lightly.
"I understand. You go down first."
Taohong nodded, turned around and walked out.
Mingyue couldn't help but make fun of this.
"The prince treats the princess very well. He sends her mother-of-pearl powder every month to nourish her body."
Song blushed and glared at her, "Don't talk nonsense."
However, Feng Xici stopped what he was doing at this moment and his brows immediately wrinkled.
"What do you think this is? Mother-of-pearl powder?"
Mingyue was confused. "Yes, it is the mother-of-pearl powder. The prince said that the princess was not in good health, so he went to find this mother-of-pearl powder. He said it would be very good for the princess's condition."
Feng Xici put down the teacup in her hand and her expression became serious.
"Using Fritillaria powder to nourish the body? That's ridiculous!"
Song's expression froze when she heard this.
She looked at Feng Xici, her heart pounding wildly.
"Mother of Pearl powder... is there something wrong with that?"
Feng Ci sighed.
The things going on inside the palace were complicated and she didn't want to get involved.
But the Fifth Princess asked her to treat Song, so even at the risk of offending the princess, she had to tell her the truth.
Feng Xici pursed her lips and slowly explained.
"Fritillaria powder is produced in the southeastern coastal areas. It is rare and precious. It is an extremely difficult herb to find. Unless you have read a lot of medical books, you really don't know this herb."
"Fritillaria powder is cold in nature and should never be given to sick or weak people. The more people eat it, the worse their condition will become."
Song's heart was suddenly lifted up and her face turned pale.
Her voice began to stutter.
"Your Highness...Your Highness may have been deceived."
The prince treated her so well and asked to marry her, a merchant's daughter, despite everyone's opposition. How could he want to harm her? !
Feng Xici looked at her ugly expression and felt a little bit of pity in her heart.
But he still spoke up and broke her last fantasy.
"Impossible. The medicinal effect of Fritillaria powder is very strong, and the quantity is very small. Only specialists still have some Fritillaria powder."
"When I bought it, the doctor would ask who was going to eat it and remind me not to give it to the weak."
"I was a little confused before. Princess, the medicine you took was indeed poisoned, but the toxin was not that much. It shouldn't have made you that sick."
"Now that I see this mother-of-pearl powder... I understand everything."
"Princess, you have been ill for so many years and you must have changed many doctors, but it is possible that no one has ever discovered it."
"Because mother-of-pearl powder is non-toxic, it will only aggravate your condition and make it last for a long time."
Song suddenly felt her heart pounding.
Her body couldn't stop shaking, and every breath was like a needle stabbing pain.
Oh my god! Oh my god!
Could it be that the man she had loved for eight years actually poisoned her personally? !
Song's hands gripped the corner of the table tightly.
She trusted Feng Xici's medical skills, but she had to find out the truth of this matter herself!
For herself...
For my sincerity over the years!
Feng Xici looked at Song's condition and couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
Before leaving, she handed Mingyue a jade bottle.
"If your princess is angry, feed her one."
She had a feeling that tonight might be a sleepless night...
night.
"Ning'er, what's the matter with you sending someone to see me?"
King Rui walked in with a gentle and elegant smile as usual.
Ning Er...
Hearing this loving title, Song's heart froze for a moment.
