Chapter 49: Sudden Heartache
For some reason it has been so rainy this summer.
There were some flowers and plants everywhere in the palace, all covered with drizzle, and the morning was filled with mist.
It is even more cruel than Jiangnan.
Lu'e held up a white silk umbrella and protected Yun Zhuan as they headed towards Huaqing Palace.
It was originally planned to expose the problems with the food in Huaqing Palace today and to expose the secret struggles among the concubines in the harem.
The harem and the previous dynasty were out of balance, and Emperor Yuan would not be so focused on jealous ministers, so the Yun family and its affiliates would have a chance to breathe.
Although the war between Yuan and Dongyi was in full swing at this time, Yun Ju'an stayed in the deep palace for a long time. This was the only thing she could do.
She really couldn't interfere too much and attract too much attention, otherwise people would inevitably speculate that she was scheming, so she always had to give others the illusion that she was a victim.
Yun Fushang sent a letter two days ago, saying that the eldest brother's leg had recovered a lot, but the other two or three had been studying in the academy and were sometimes excluded.
Those people were nothing more than the dandies in the capital, Yun Ju'an knew it well.
Somehow, Yun Ju'an was distracted by a sudden pain in her heart. The suffocation that surged from her body to her heart almost made her lose consciousness and fall to her knees on the ground.
"Miss!" Lu'e was a little panicked and held her young lady's waist tightly to prevent her from falling into the mud.
Rain fell all around, creating waves.
Duhuo had been missing since early morning, he must have gone to do some work for the young lady.
Yun Yuan exhaled slowly, and when the pain in his heart subsided a little, he said, "I'm fine, let's go."
In fact, even when he arrived at Huaqing Palace, Yun Zhuan's heart still ached slightly.
This is so strange, this has never happened before.
"Your servant Yun Ju'an has met Her Majesty the Concubine Su." Yun Ju'an bowed gracefully.
She has a beautiful face and is well versed in etiquette.
The decoration in this palace is simple and elegant, and it smells fresh, like the fragrance of some herb.
Concubine Su looked her over calmly and said, "Stand up. I heard Yue'an mention the princess. She is a well-behaved girl."
It was just an unfortunate time for him to arrive, as he happened to catch Concubine Su having dinner.
Since Concubine Su's meal time was different from other places, Yun Zhuan also calculated the time exactly.
"I thought I could avoid the Majesty's meal time by coming a little later, but I was still rude." Yun Zhuan breathed a sigh of relief and sat down properly. "Last time I fainted by the Yu Lake. Thanks to Majesty Su's Yue Temple, Yuling hasn't had time to thank you yet!"
Her eyes were clear and her gaze lowered revealed a calm and elegant side.
Concubine Su Guifei's personality is more indifferent than Su Yu'an, and she should be more straightforward.
You can tell from the fact that she disdains to compete for favor in the harem.
Concubine Su looked at Yun Zhuan with some surprise: "Did Yue An save you last time?"
She had heard about what happened in Yu Lake and knew that Yun Zhuan was frightened.
However, he didn't know that it was his own niece who returned Yun Ju'an to You Feng Lai Yi!
No wonder I was late last time, it was because of this reason!
"Yes, Your Majesty should also know that I saw something and then fainted from fright. It was Miss Su who sent me back without thinking it was too heavy."
Concubine Su slowly turned her mind around, her face calm, "Let's eat first, and we'll talk about other things after dinner. The food in Huaqing Palace is not as delicious as that in Guanju Palace, so don't mind it, Princess!"
He has been practicing martial arts since he was young, and he is indeed straightforward and heroic.
"I heard that the food in Huaqing Palace is unique, so today I am tempted by it." Yun Jue was unwilling to finish this play.
After calculating the amount, he saw Concubine Su put down her chopsticks, and then he put down his chopsticks too.
"The food in Her Majesty's palace is indeed extraordinary..." Yun Ju'an exclaimed in praise.
Before he could finish his words, he suddenly felt the suffocation in his heart and chest that he could not express. He felt dizzy all of a sudden, and just when he stood up and was about to bow to thank him, he fell backwards unexpectedly.
Thanks to Lu'e for protecting her own lady, she did not lose her composure and fall to the ground.
"Miss!" Lu'e looked at Concubine Su anxiously, "Concubine Su..."
Concubine Su finally came to her senses and calmly ordered, "Someone, call the imperial physician! Do not remove the food on the table. Wait for the imperial physician to check!"
"yes!."
Concubine Su was worthy of being a concubine, and she quickly arranged things in an orderly manner.
He asked someone to move Yun Zhuan to a side hall first, and then invited the imperial physician to take his pulse.
Yun Zhuan only felt that her chest was filled with countless pains, like a worm struggling in her chest, making it hard for her to breathe. Tears and sweat welled up in her eyes.
"Lüye, it hurts, it hurts..."
Lu'e held Yun Zhuan's hand, knelt beside her and said, "Miss, it's okay, the imperial physician will be here soon..."
She knew the young lady's plan and what she was going to do.
The two had previously checked the properties of the medicine and knew that it would only make the patient dizzy and if consumed for a long time, the patient would become unable to think, and the condition would worsen, causing the patient to be bedridden and unable to take care of himself.
The worst that can happen is a headache, or it may bring up an old illness. How can there be any physical pain?
Dean Zhang came quickly, holding a medicine box in his hand, and was wondering in his heart, is the young lady of the Yun family made of paper? Why does she need to call in a royal physician again and again?
When you think about it, you still have to take the pulse.
When I checked it, I found that the pulse was weak and beating feebly, as if it had been frightened by something. But looking at it, it seemed that it would not stop!
Even Dean Zhang couldn't figure it out for a moment.
"I wonder if the Queen has had any meal?" Zhang Yuanzheng took out a silver needle and looked at Concubine Su. Concubine Su waved her hand and asked Cui Xin to take Zhang Yuanzheng forward.
Zhang Yuanzheng picked out each dish, looked at it, and smelled it.
This dish is strange, but it smells like normal food.
But there was something fresh and powerful in it, and Silver Needle couldn't figure it out.
Zhang Yuanzheng tasted it and frowned: "It tastes light and cold, it doesn't seem like something from the Central Plains!"
"Is there something wrong with the dish?" Concubine Su Gui's face showed surprise. She asked people to keep the dish just to prevent someone from making a fuss about Yun Zhuan's fainting.
But I didn't expect that there was something wrong with this dish.
I also got it in my stomach!
"My Lady, I am sorry for your rudeness..." Zhang Yuanzheng stepped forward and quickly took the pulse of Lady Su, his eyes filled with shock. "My Lady Su, your pulse looks like you have taken a cold poison, which has been accumulating in your body for a long time. However, it has not caused any damage. I am afraid that if you take it for a few more days, it will be too late to save you..."
Concubine Su Gui's face was horrified: "The princess has been implicated innocently, please ask Dean Zhang to do his best to treat her!"
The Yun family is still fighting for the people on the front line, but the daughter of the Yuan family is suffering such things in the harem. It is unacceptable.
Zhang Yuanzheng carefully checked Yun Zhuan's pulse and said, "The breathless grass grows in the border areas, where the wind is strong and the weather is hot. In addition, the breathless grass is harmful to the plant and makes people unconscious. If this continues, it is only a matter of time before people become dull and stupid..."
"Cui Xin, go and report to the Queen and the Imperial Physician. I'm leaving Princess Yuling in your care!" Concubine Su Gui was calm and spoke indifferently.
If you want to harm her, you are overestimating your own abilities!
Zhang Yuanzheng, however, heard a hint of ruthlessness in the words, and quickly lowered his head and said, "Please rest assured, Your Majesty!"
Yun Zhuan still curled up his body to make himself feel better, but no matter what he did, he could not relieve the pain.
"Imperial Physician, Imperial Physician, please save the young lady!" Lu'e knelt directly on the ground.
Zhang Yuanzheng was sweating on his forehead: "The princess's symptoms don't seem to be the effect of the Wuxicao..."
As he spoke, he inserted a silver needle into Yunzhu.
After a long while, Yun Zhuan finally felt the pain eased.
I just felt a damp heat on my forehead and it was hard to breathe.
"Aunt, uncle..." Yun Zhuan vaguely saw the scene of his uncle teaching him to read.
Cicadas chirp, the weaver is spinning in the evening.
I have a bad temper and have caused my uncle a lot of trouble.
It's her fault.
I think my uncle Aong must have received the letter I sent to him last time, right?
"Uncle, why don't you see Grandpa?" Yun Ju'an looked at Yun Huai with a dazed look as he smiled at her.
Two lines of tears mixed with the sound of rain without being noticed.
As night falls, the sky gradually becomes cooler; my old friend goes west, his clothes wet with tears.
Abababa, it's recommended, I'm so happy
