Chapter 62 Why must I be a favorite concubine?
After half a month of preparation, the queen's coronation ceremony finally arrived.
Zhao Miaomiao couldn't refuse, so she chose to accept it.
She lay there like a corpse, letting the maids wash and dress her, and then take her to worship her ancestors, perform the ceremony, and complete the ceremony of crowning her queen.
Finally, Wu Zhanjun stood in front of the dragon throne, stretched out his hand, and waited for Zhao Miaomiao to come up and receive the worship together.
Zhao Miaomiao looked at this high position and felt exhausted.
How did things turn out like this?
She just didn't want to complete the mission, wanted to get away with it, and didn't want to die.
How did she become the queen?
Zhao Miaomiao stepped up the stairs step by step, and when she took the last step, she was about to walk in front of Wu Zhanjun.
Wu Zhanjun suddenly burst into a violent coughing fit, coughing up a mouthful of blood that landed on the ground.
Zhao Miaomiao was shocked: What happened?
Don’t tell me I’m poisonous!
Eunuch Gao shouted, "Your Majesty!"
Wu Zhanjun waved his hand, "It's okay, I can do it."
Then he held on and completed the final ceremony.
In the last step, Zhao Miaomiao and Wu Zhanjun stood together to accept the worship of civil and military officials.
Zhao Miaomiao stood next to Wu Zhanjun and felt that Wu Zhanjun's body was shaking slightly and his face was getting paler and paler.
Zhao Miaomiao tugged at Wu Zhanjun's sleeve and said, "Hey, if you can't do it, don't force it. The remaining point is not important. Don't worry about those details."
"no."
Wu Zhanjun said stubbornly, "This is a once-in-a-lifetime ceremony for the Queen, and I want to give you the best."
But after the coronation ceremony, Wu Zhanjun immediately fainted.
Eunuch Gao urgently called the imperial physician.
Zhao Miaomiao also stood outside Wu Zhanjun's door, watching the imperial physician busying himself in and out.
The Queen Mother came and stood outside the door with a worried look on her face, "What happened to the Emperor?"
Then Yuan arrived, even more anxious and worried. A royal physician came out and she quickly stopped him and asked, "How is the emperor? What happened?"
The imperial physician said, "The emperor has been poisoned."
Zhao Miaomiao: !!!!!!
Don’t think I’m really poisonous!
The Queen Mother immediately asked, "What kind of poison? Who on earth is so bold as to poison the Emperor?"
The imperial physician glanced at Zhao Miaomiao who was standing beside him, then walked over and said, "Your Majesty, I dare to ask you to take a look at the phoenix crown on your head."
Zhao Miaomiao: "Oh, okay."
Then he took off the phoenix crown and handed it to the imperial physician.
The imperial physician carefully examined the phoenix crown, sniffed it, and said, "The emperor has been poisoned by this!
This poison is called Hedaiyi.
The poisoned person will gradually suffer kidney failure, internal bleeding, and eventually die from exhaustion.
Zhao Miaomiao was anxious: "How can you, an old man, lie with your eyes open?
You can say I'm poisonous, but you can't say I poisoned someone!"
The Queen Mother pointed at Zhao Miaomiao and said, "Someone, come here! Quickly arrest this vicious woman!"
Seeing this scene, Zhao Miaomiao understood instantly!
This is clearly a trap set by the Queen Mother!
Oh my god!
I was so careless!
In order to kill her, the Queen Mother even poisoned Wu Zhanjun. This is too cruel!
No matter what, Wu Zhanjun is the son she has raised for more than ten years.
What Zhao Miaomiao didn't expect was that the Queen Mother had already poisoned Wu Zhanjun, putting a little bit of poison in Wu Zhanjun's food every time, over time.
Wu Zhanjun thought that he started coughing because he had a cold that had not healed.
This time at the ceremony of the coronation of the empress, the empress dowager increased the dosage on the phoenix crown and also induced other poisons in the lotus belt robe, which caused Wu Zhanjun's health to collapse.
And poisoning at the queen's coronation ceremony was to frame the whole thing on Zhao Miaomiao.
All the guards rushed forward and surrounded Zhao Miaomiao.
Zhao Miaomiao thought, oh no, I can’t escape this time.
At this time, Yuan said, "Wait a minute! How can the Queen of Wu decide life or death based on the words of a mere imperial physician?"
Yuan said, "If the Empress Dowager and the Queen don't mind, I know a little bit about medicine and can take a look at it for the Emperor."
The Queen Mother naturally said that she minded.
"Humph, who do you think you are to be so close to the emperor's dragon body?"
But Zhao Miaomiao naturally said that she didn't mind.
"She is the emperor's biological mother, why can't she go to see the emperor?"
Zhao Miaomiao suddenly realized that she was now the most noble woman in the State of Wu, and her status could rival that of the Queen Mother.
So she straightened up, imitated the way Zhen Huan acted in the TV series, and fiercely said to the guards around her: "I wonder who dares to touch me! I am the queen appointed by the emperor himself!"
The guards didn't dare to move.
Zhao Miaomiao walked over to the imperial physician and asked him, "What kind of poison did you say was this?"
The imperial physician was a little frightened and lowered his head, avoiding Zhao Miaomiao's sight. "Your Majesty, it's Hedaiyi."
Zhao Miaomiao asked again: "Repeat what you just said."
The imperial physician paused and said, "The lotus belt robe is highly poisonous. Those who are poisoned will slowly die of kidney failure."
"Did you hear that? He said slowly!"
Zhao Miaomiao turned to glance at the Queen Mother. "I've only been with the Emperor for an hour or two today. How could the poison take effect so quickly?"
The Queen Mother straightened her body and said stubbornly, "Then maybe there is some other poison in your body! The Emperor is like this because of some other poison!"
Zhao Miaomiao was just waiting for the Queen Mother to say this. "That's perfect, let Yuan go in and take a look. Oh, and let the imperial physician go too. Let's both take a look together and see who has a different opinion."
Zhao Miaomiao glanced at the imperial physician again and threatened, "But first, I hope the imperial physician can know what the crime of framing the queen is."
The imperial physician was so frightened that he immediately knelt down, trembling, "I dare not!"
Yuan and the imperial physician went in to examine Wu Zhanjun together.
Then talk about the test results together.
Yuan was in tears, feeling distressed. She cried, "The emperor has indeed been poisoned by Hedaiyi, and the poison has been lurking in his body for more than half a year, gradually damaging his internal organs."
The imperial physician also said: "For the poison of Hedaiyi to take effect, it must be administered little by little. At the beginning, the poisoned person will not show any abnormalities.
Once toxins accumulate, symptoms such as coughing or even coughing up blood will appear.
But usually by this time, the poison has already entered the internal organs and is beyond help."
When Eunuch Gao heard this, he immediately said, "The Emperor started coughing four months ago. Could it be that he was already poisoned at that time?"
The imperial physician nodded.
Zhao Miaomiao turned to look at the Queen Mother and said, "Did you hear that? Four months ago, I hadn't even returned yet.
Queen Mother, do you still think I poisoned the Emperor?!"
The Queen Mother snorted softly, "I am just concerned about the Emperor and am anxious."
"Okay, I care about the emperor too, so let's investigate. Let's find out who poisoned the emperor!"
Zhao Miaomiao instructed Eunuch Gao, "Investigate for me! In the past six months, investigate everyone who has had contact with the emperor, as well as his food, clothing, housing, and transportation! Find out who poisoned him!"
The Queen Mother stood aside without saying a word.
But Yuan and Zhao Miaomiao already knew in their hearts that this was done by the Queen Mother.
After the Queen Mother left, Zhao Miaomiao secretly instructed Eunuch Gao, "Keep an eye on the people in the Queen Mother's palace, and don't let a single mosquito out!"
