Chapter 189 Zhao Zhuoxi is poisoned
Zhao Zhuoxi didn't feel any discomfort at first.
But the frequent vomiting of blood made him feel a little weak.
He asked Doctor Yu to come and see her, but he couldn't find anything. In the end, he found Chu Yu himself.
After Chu Yu carefully took his pulse, she told him that he was poisoned.
Moreover, he was poisoned by a very strange poison that came from the Western Regions. Chu Yu had only heard of it but didn't know how to cure it.
It was from this time that Zhao Zhuoxi began to reorganize the business.
He wanted to ensure that after his death, Jiang Jiu and the child would live well in his fiefdom.
So, he asked Lu Ming and Ni Chang to hide it from everyone.
Jiang Jiu was extremely anxious: "What kind of poison is this? Even Chu Yu can't cure it..."
Nichang was also very sad: "We took strict precautions every day, but we didn't expect that the master would still be poisoned. Princess, you are pregnant now, so don't be too sad. The master will find a way to solve it."
"If the master knew that the princess knew, she would definitely feel distressed."
Yes, Jiang Jiu forced herself to cheer up. She couldn't let Zhao Zhuoxi know. If he knew about her illness, she would be pregnant. If Zhao Zhuoxi knew about it, he would be worried and her condition would definitely get worse.
Jiang Jiu was also very surprised: "We provide our own food every day, and our palace is surrounded by siege. The maids and servants who tasted the food were all fine, which means that the person who poisoned the food did not put it in the food..."
Zhao Zhuoxi has paid great attention to food, clothing, housing and transportation in the capital.
Jiang Jiu really couldn't figure out how Zhao Zhuoxi got poisoned.
He was clearly fine when he first arrived in the capital, and there was no sign of poisoning after Zhao Zhuoxi fell into a coma.
As he was talking, Zhao Zhuoxi came back from outside.
Still in good spirits, but looking a little thin.
Jiang Jiu personally cooked a soup of ginseng, deer antler and red dates for him to replenish his blood.
"Where have you been?" Jiang Jiu suppressed his worry and tried his best to appear happier.
Zhao Zhuoxi frowned: "I went to the Duke of Zhenguo's house. Although he was willing to help me, he did not agree with my marriage to Yao Qin."
"I don't agree with it, but that Yao Qin...ah..."
Jiang Jiu chuckled: "She insisted on marrying you..."
Zhao Zhuoxi smiled bitterly: "A little girl. I don't remember what she looked like at all. I only remember that she had a birthmark on her face."
Jiang Jiu nodded: "Even if she is the granddaughter of the Duke of Zhen, it is not easy for her to get married. It is easy to find someone to marry her, but it is difficult to find someone who truly treats her well."
That's right, so Duke Zhenguo was also worried.
Zhao Zhuoxi added: "With the Duke of Zhen here, Nanli will not dare to invade Daning. Now that Beidi is coming to marry, Nanli is also planning to send someone to marry."
Jiang Jiu: "This is a good thing. We don't have to fight anymore, and Prince Ling's military power can be taken back..."
If the emperor is strong enough.
However, the emperor seemed to be afraid to take away Prince Ling's military power.
Zhao Zhuoxi shook his head: "No, Nanli Kingdom is not like Beidi. Their royal family is very strong. They can only stop if they are scared or if Nanli Kingdom is taken over directly."
"Besides, when the Duke of Zhenguo was at war with the Nanli Kingdom, he killed the entire family of the Duke of Huguo. Once Nanli negotiates peace with us, it will be very difficult for the Duke of Zhenguo to live..."
Jiang Jiu understood and was afraid that the people of Nanli would take revenge on Duke Zhenguo and his family.
Therefore, although the Duke of Zhenguo felt sorry for his granddaughter, he still agreed to the marriage between Zhao Zhuoxi and Yao Qin, because Zhao Zhuoxi could at least protect Yao Qin.
Qin.
Besides, Yao Qin really likes Zhao Zhuoxi.
The envoy from the Nanli Kingdom is on the way, and the Princess of Beidi is still choosing a husband.
Just when Jiang Jiu felt sorry for Zhao Zhuoxi and asked Jin'er to make soup and medicine for him and search through ancient books for his illness, Princess Zhaoyang asked her to go home.
Nanny Xing came to pick me up in person.
"Princess, the princess is sick and misses you. Please come home and stay for a few more days."
After all, Jiang Jiu is Su Man's body. Daning attaches great importance to filial piety, so no matter how unwilling he is, he has to go back.
Jiang Jiu packed up her things and turned around to see the jade pendant on her body, which was already 90% red. At this moment, she just had to smash it. From now on, she would be the real Jiang Jiu and no longer Su Man.
I don’t know if the jade pendant will be replaced when I return to Princess Zhaoyang.
At this moment, Zhao Zhuoxi came to see her off and handed her a white jade pendant.
"This is a fake one. Wear it if you need it. Never let yours leave your body. If it's full, smash it."
Jiang Jiu stuffed the jade pendant into his sleeve pocket.
But Jiang Jiu didn't expect that Princess Zhaoyang's illness was fake and she was really discussing important matters.
Princess Zhaoyang smiled sweetly when she saw Jiang Jiu coming back.
"Xiaojiu, I heard that you are pregnant. I wonder how your body is doing? Grandma has asked a doctor to examine you."
While speaking, Princess Zhaoyang took the jade pendant and took a look at it. Seeing that it had not turned completely red, she put it down.
Jiang Jiu didn't expect that when she was pregnant, Zhao Zhuoxi didn't tell anyone, but she knew it.
Thinking of the four maids, everything became clear.
The doctor personally felt Jiang Jiu's pulse and nodded: "Your Highness, the princess is indeed pregnant and has been pregnant for two months... The princess is in good health and just needs to continue to recuperate."
Princess Zhaoyang was overjoyed and gave the doctor many rewards.
He took Jiang Jiu's hand and sat down, looked around and waved.
Everyone left, leaving only Nanny Xing in the room.
"Xiaojiu, since you are pregnant, there is something that grandma still needs to tell you..."
Jiang Jiu's heart tightened: "What's the matter?"
Princess Zhaoyang patted her hands and said, "Don't be nervous. Listen to what grandma will tell you slowly..."
"Your Majesty is dying. Concubine Xian is pregnant and I heard it's a boy... If your Majesty dies and that little kid ascends the throne, do you think your Majesty will be at ease with Prince Qi?"
Jiang Jiu frowned. Why did she hear Zhao Zhuoxi say that Concubine Xian was pregnant with a princess?
Yes, both men and women can get it, it just depends on who does it at the right time.
Jiang Jiu didn't say anything, just listened carefully.
Princess Zhaoyang: "Prince Ling has been planning for so long. When the emperor issues an edict, he will be the regent..."
Jiang Jiu knew clearly in his heart that both Princess Zhaoyang and Grand Scholar Qin Yuan had become Sixth Prince Zhao Zhuoran's people, and in fact, they were on the side of the Emperor.
It’s easy to understand other people, but Jiang Jiu really doesn’t understand Qin Yuan.
Question: "Grandmother, why is Prince Ling the Regent Prince instead of Prince Qi?"
Princess Showa smiled and said, "By then, Prince Qi will probably be gone. Besides, Prince Qi cannot ascend the throne because his mother is not from Daning..."
Jiang Jiu was shocked: "Isn't she Lord Qin's daughter?"
Princess Showa shook her head: "She is the daughter of Lord Qin, but an illegitimate daughter. Her mother is from the Western Regions..."
Therefore, Zhao Zhuoxi's bloodline is not pure.
Jiang Jiu was shocked again: "But when the late emperor passed away, didn't he leave a will to give the throne to Prince Qi? The late emperor didn't dislike him at all. Why do you dislike him..."
There was a flash of surprise in Princess Showa's eyes.
"It seems like you two have a pretty good relationship. He talks to you a lot..."
"The late emperor favored his mother, which led to disaster. We can't mess it up. Besides, if the King of Qi ascends the throne, the world will be in chaos. This is what we have planned. So, no matter what, the King of Qi cannot stay in the capital..."
