The night is dark.
Half to please, half to be passive, after being tormented by Yan Zhuo for half the night, Jiang Ying didn't even want to go back to his bedroom and wanted to slip into the space to sleep.
Because tomorrow we will be going up the mountain very early.
Unexpectedly, she was still in a dilemma and hadn't made a final decision. In the distance, a group of people were walking in a hurry with lanterns, shouting, "Mrs. Jiang, it's done~"
Jiang Ying subconsciously hid in the cabin. It was the dead of night and there was someone shouting so loudly!
Afraid that others would hear her hanging out with Yan Zhuo?
Yan Zhuo was a sensible man, and he was in a very good mood after having just been satisfied twice. After tidying up his clothes, he held Jiang Ying down and kissed her slightly messy hair. "I'll go lead them away, and you show up when the time is right."
"Get lost!" Jiang Yingsi said angrily.
After Yan Zhuo went out to look for a while, she quietly got off the boat, followed the path into the garden, crossed the small wooden bridge, and then walked towards the crowded area.
The light of the lantern flickered in the dark night.
"What happened?" He walked forward and asked in a confused and calm manner.
As soon as he finished speaking, he received a look from Yan Zhuo that looked like a smile but not a smile.
As if complimenting her, little guy, you acted wrong~
Jiang Ying secretly rolled his eyes and recognized the person as Huang Mingquan, so it must be the emperor or other high-ranking people who have encountered trouble.
I lament that my life as a husband is so busy.
But I thought, it’s my husband who is sick!
"He was fine earlier, but he caught a fever in the middle of the night. Your Majesty, I came to notify you to go and have a look." Huang Ming was extremely anxious. Jiang Ying took a look, wondering what he understood.
In order to let outsiders know about the royal scandal, the emperor secretly found an excuse to execute Concubine Zhao and Lin Qinfeng, but Qiu Lie suppressed it first and pretended to give the child to Concubine Qiao to take care of him, pretending that it was a serious matter. As a result, Qiu Lie deliberately brought the child out, and the child fell ill on the first day. It was obvious at a glance that she was trying to know the inside story.
This is to make Prince 꺶 die quietly from illness!
It certainly won't happen that quickly. They have to create a scene for the family that the father-in-law is sick, and then he gets sicker and sicker, and then dies. This way, people outside will get suspicious.
Seeing Jiang Ying's gloomy face and her tightly pursed lips before speaking, Huang Mingquan knew that she understood.
He urged with a smile, "Madam, please go quickly, don't let Concubine Qiao wait anxiously."
…
"Don't mention it, Concubine Qiao has only adopted Prince Consort for a few years, and it seems that she really loves the child.
The prince felt so comfortable that night, and it was said that Concubine Qiao kept hugging him and comforting him, and it was really good, so she asked the emperor for this advice. "
On the way, Huang Mingquan stopped talking.
Having said so much, I don't know what I want to express specifically.
Jiang Ying remained silent the whole time. Hearing this, he looked up and said, "Eunuch Huang, you said this because you want me to understand whether Concubine Qiao was actually wrong to Prince Wu?"
A child who is destined to die, whether she develops feelings for Concubine Qiao or Concubine Qiao is willing to give her up, it is a good thing!
So the emperor, although seemingly very kind to women, is actually very cold-blooded.
He would play with the harem whenever he liked, and would place people around whenever he liked.
Including Concubine Chen, even if she gave birth to a dragon and a phoenix, what difference would there be in quality?
The royal family is ruthless, Jiang Ying is lucky that Yan Zhuo is the emperor.
Huang Mingquan choked for a moment, then immediately laughed it off, "No, no, that's not what we meant. We just wanted to find someone to talk to at night, so we just said a few words to liven up the atmosphere."
Jiang Ying didn't believe him at all. He turned around and looked at Yan Zhuo. Both of them felt helpless.
I know how to help my grandma, and it seems that I should help her, but she is only a one-year-old child!
It's not the person's fault, why involve the child?
Zhongcuiyuan was where Concubine Qiao stayed. The emperor was not there, so in order to avoid suspicion, Jiang Ying did not let Yan Zhuo in.
Yan Zhuo knew that the cat was jealous and said, "Be careful when you go in."
Jiang Ying, "Let it go, I know."
I guess someone must have fed poison to the boy to create the illusion that he was sick.
Huang Mingquan hinted in both explicit and implicit ways that she should stay out of it.
As for Concubine Qiao, she didn't need to know all this. She just had to be a scapegoat for not raising the child well.
“Wuwuwuwuwu… Mother, I want… Mother…”
"Where did you take my mother?"
Princess ꍿ was ill and was particularly obedient. She could be coaxed during the day, and Concubine Qiao was helpless with her at night.
The two personal maids took turns holding the princess, rocking her, and coaxing her gently. Concubine Qiao was so anxious that she was sweating.
When he saw Jiang Ying coming in, it was like seeing a savior.
"Madam Jiang, you are here. Please help check on Grandpa. Did he eat something wrong or catch a cold? He is fine during the day, but he has a fever at night, cries, and talks in his sleep. We...we are at our wits' end."
Jiang Ying wanted to ask how to say goodbye to the imperial physician.
She really doesn't want to wade into this muddy water...
The question came to his lips, but he didn't ask it. He took the medicine box over and let the doctor check it carefully.
Of course, she could just pretend to see through everything and let the prince fend for himself, just as Huang Mingquan had suggested.
But her professional ethics as a doctor allowed her to do so.
So after a careful investigation, he knew what the poison was and had a rough idea of it. Then he said to Concubine Qiao, "I'll give Gong Gong some cooling medicine. She'll feel better after taking it."
What kind of disease is it that does not mention Gong in the first sentence?
Because he was not sick, Jiang Ying was used to deceiving others and even deceived himself.
Moreover, seeing such a small child suffering made her feel really comfortable. Just now, for a moment, she even wanted to secretly give her father some detoxifying medicine.
Upon hearing this, Concubine Qiao grabbed Jiang Ying's hand with gratitude, "Okay, okay, okay! I knew you would have a way, so I asked Eunuch Huang to find you. Don't let the imperial physician go."
Jiang Ying: "..."
It turns out that Concubine Qiao is the evil one!
But Princess Qiao is really beautiful, like the pale golden sunlight at dawn, making it difficult for people to ignore her.
Jiang Ying said nothing and turned around to prepare the medicine carefully.
My husband also magically calmed down.
No one knows that this is the spiritual power emitted by Jiang Ying's spiritual space, which has a certain soothing effect.
Concubine Qiao suddenly spoke up at this time, "My Lord has been crying for a while, and his underwear is soaked. Go down and tell him to take a bath, and then prepare new clothes for him to fumigate, so that I can change them for him later."
Then he asked Jiang Ying, "Madam Jiang, is it okay for the Duke to take a bath now?"
Jiang Ying hummed, "No problem. When a child has a fever like this, it's helpful to give her a warm bath every half an hour."
Concubine Qiao nodded seriously, "I understand. I will do as you say next time."
The two maids looked at each other, bowed obediently and retreated.
One of them walked to the door, then turned back and said, "My lady, I'll prepare some hot water and take the princess away. Don't let her bother you anymore."
"Go ahead, be quick and get it done quickly."
Concubine Qiao smiled and didn't seem to be happy at all.
However, the moment the door closed, the smile in her eyes faded a little.
He turned around and sat on the armchair with a gloomy face, "Too much! Everyone thinks I, Qiao Qingci, am a fool!"
At this moment, Jiang Ying just wanted to pretend that he was air.
I am speechless about this Concubine Qiao. If you want to change your attitude, why don’t you send me away first?
What, do I feel pressured by seeing your ugly true faces? ?
When Jiang Ying was extremely frustrated and almost about to go berserk, Concubine Qiao suddenly looked at her with tears in her eyes, "Madam Jiang, don't be so polite, I am targeting you."
"I know that the princess is ill, but the emperor actually wants her to live."
When Concubine Qiao said this in an unusually calm manner, to be honest, Jiang Ying was a little surprised!
Because she originally thought that Concubine Qiao knew everything, and being kept in the dark was destined to be a confused and muddleheaded insect that would kill the princess.
Although she is a princess, she is not a real princess...
