Chapter 59: Poisonous Scheme
Three days later, the Queen lost her temper in Fenghua Palace.
She had been staying here for four days, but Emperor Yongping had never visited her once.
Based on her experience in two lifetimes, she should have thought that she had lost favor no matter what.
But she still didn't know whether Emperor Yongping had taken the medicine given on the first day of this month.
I don't even know why I have lost favor inexplicably.
Therefore, he did not dare to take the risk of awakening the Heart-Eating Bug.
She was waiting, waiting for the vitality in Emperor Yongping's body to drain away.
When his vitality was lost to a certain extent and the imperial physician was helpless.
Then she will offer medicine.
She has the Valley of Ten Thousand Insects, and the National Master can refine the poison of ten thousand insects.
With these trump cards, even if Emperor Yongping only had one breath left, she could let him live for a few more years.
"Hongye, go get the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to help me move. I'm going to move to Fengyi Palace."
The Queen did not plan to look for Emperor Yongping, but she was still very determined not to live in Fenghua Palace.
"Your Highness, when I went to the Imperial Household Department yesterday, they said that we had to get the Emperor's oral order before we could move you to the palace."
Hongye had no idea why the empress wanted to move her palace.
In her opinion, it would be a good thing for her master to live in Fenghua Palace.
As soon as her master entered the palace, she was granted to live in this magnificent palace, from the side hall to the main hall, from a beauty to the queen.
Even the two princes were born in Fenghua Palace.
Although her master lived a good life after moving into Fengming Palace.
She and the Emperor loved each other more than ever, but she never conceived a royal heir again.
For this reason alone, Fengming Palace is not as prosperous as Fenghua Palace for her master.
"I am the empress, and the empress should live in Fengyi Palace. Why do they need the emperor's oral instructions?"
The queen was a little angry and kept smashing the furnishings and dishes in the palace.
"Your Majesty, perhaps the Emperor was busy handling state affairs and forgot about your relocation."
Hongye looked at the fine porcelain being smashed to the ground and did not dare to stop it forcefully. She could only try to persuade them patiently.
"Yes, Madam, the Emperor must be very worried about the disaster in Jingzhou. Wasn't the Second Young Master ordered to escort winter grain to Jingzhou a few days ago?"
"When the Second Young Master comes back from his mission and the matter in Jingzhou is settled, the Emperor may have time to come to the harem."
Several senior palace maids all plucked up their courage and tried to persuade the queen one by one.
They had inquired around and found out that the Emperor had not been to any palace in the past month.
The only time I went to Qiongxia Palace was when I carried the little princess with me.
The lady in Qiongxia Palace has been a vegetarian for many years. When you go to see her, the most you can do is chat with her and eat some vegetarian food. There is nothing else you can do.
"Well, I will listen to you this time."
Unexpectedly, the queen really stopped making trouble.
Several of the senior palace maids felt a little uncomfortable.
In fact, the queen did not really listen to their advice.
She just thought about the 100,000 shi of winter grain.
I heard that after the disaster in Jingzhou, many refugees fled north to escape famine, and some young and strong ones were also recruited into the private army camp.
In this case, her private army camp should have expanded by a lot this time, right?
"Is tomorrow the fifteenth?"
The queen was silent for a while and suddenly asked.
"To reply to the Queen, tomorrow is the fifteenth day."
No one else dared to speak, only Hongye responded.
"The day after tomorrow, is it that little evil creature Man Yue from the East Palace?"
The queen asked again.
"To answer your Majesty, that is right."
Hongye continued to reply.
"Lu Luo, go and ask the Imperial Master to come over and tell him that Fenghua Palace has not been occupied for a long time and ask him to decorate it."
The queen came up with another vicious plan in her mind.
As for the children of the East Palace, she said she would make them live a life worse than that of dogs, and she must keep her word.
Moreover, ever since that little bastard was born, something was not right with her Fengming Palace and Worm Valley.
Who knows, maybe that little bastard was sent by God to bring bad luck to her.
Otherwise, how could she explain this unlucky month?
After the Imperial Preceptor arrived at Fenghua Palace, the Empress sent all the serving maids away, and the two of them conspired in the palace for more than half an hour before they ended their plot.
However, everything she did was seen by Chu Qinshu who entered the space during her nap.
"Master, how could the Queen be the heroine of this world if she is such a bad person? What was the author who created this world thinking?"
The little gourd is not worried about the danger its owner is about to face, but is more curious about the writer's worldview.
"Alas, you are still too young. Who says that a purely good person can be the ruler of the world? Wouldn't you be bullied to death? Of course, a purely bad person can't be the ruler of the world. Such a world will collapse sooner or later."
Chu Qinshu touched Xiao Hulu's little head, feeling a little old-fashioned.
In the past few days, she has experienced some great ups and downs.
That day, she secretly ate a piece of durian the size of a small gray date in the space.
Unexpectedly, when I returned to the East Palace at night, I was vomiting and had a high fever.
After a whole night of torment, Doctor Cheng was almost scared to death.
In the end, she drank a bowl of her own bath water and that was it.
Alas, after this incident, she finally understood.
If it's not something she should be thinking about at her age, she shouldn't think about it.
If you don't listen to the advice of the elderly, you will suffer the consequences.
Just listen to your parents and the Emperor and drink your milk quietly.
"Master, what you said is so complicated. Little Gourd can't understand it."
Little Gourd also touched his head, looking confused.
What does it mean that a purely good person cannot be the ruler of the world, and a purely bad person cannot be the ruler of the world either?
So what kind of person can be the master of the world?
Is he a person who is neither good nor bad?
"You don't need to understand. Just keep an eye on my durian and the tree branch with the same nest. Tell me if anything happens. If you dare to eat it again, I'll use you to make soup."
After Chu Qinshu said this, she left the space.
The little gourd stayed where it was, but its eyes were shining.
How could this owner be so smart? Could it be that she also discovered that something was missing from another branch?
The next morning, Chu Chengyi had just arranged some things for the secret guards and asked them to leave.
Doctor Cheng then appeared outside his bedroom door stealthily, carrying his medicine box on his back. Seeing that there was no one around, he knocked gently on the door.
"Come in."
Chu Chengyi didn't even raise his head, just responded lightly.
"Your Highness, the task you entrusted to me has been completed."
Doctor Cheng closed the door mysteriously and looked around, as if he was afraid that someone would spy on his secret.
"Oh, how effective is the patent medicine?"
Chu Chengyi put down what he was doing and looked up at Doctor Cheng.
"I took the medicine to the clinic for a trial. Only three pills of the cold medicine are enough to equal the effect of six doses of decoction. Moreover, you only need to take three pills three times a day, morning, noon and evening, and the cold symptoms will disappear the next day.
For those who are physically stronger, only one pill is enough, and three pills at most are enough to consolidate the effect. For those who are weak or elderly, they need to take three more pills the next day to consolidate the effect. ”
As Doctor Cheng spoke, his eyes sparkled.
Chu Chengyi runs a private clinic. If the medicine made with "Lingshui" can be sold in the clinic, it will be a blessing for the people of the capital.
'Lingshui' is the elegant name Chu Chengyi gave to Chu Qinshu's bath water.
Sheng Anguo does not yet have a mature distillation technology, but he does have a special method to obtain the water from the edge of the pot.
There just happened to be a small pharmacy in the main courtyard of the East Palace that Chu Chengyi had opened specifically for Imperial Doctor Cheng.
These days, he stayed there every day, boiling all the "spiritual water" Chu Chengyi gave him and making it into pot water.
Then, he was busy preparing the herbs and making the medicine, and he was so busy that he almost forgot what day it was.
"How many kinds of medicines have you made in recent days?"
After hearing what Doctor Cheng said, Chu Chengyi was also surprised, but his expression was unrecognizable.
