The next day, Imperial Physician Jiang went to Chonghua Palace to check on Gu Wanying's injuries. He thought that Concubine Wan was a high-minded concubine. After all, the emperor was so distressed to see her injured!
This concubine will surely become arrogant because of her favor, and will look at him as if his eyes are not eyes and his nose is not a nose.
Gu Wanying didn't know what he was thinking, so she asked Yuetao to put some fruits and snacks in the small garden while she treated him there.
As soon as Imperial Physician Jiang arrived, Feicui warmly invited him in. He lowered his head and didn't dare to look around, and the medicine boy following behind him didn't dare to say a word.
But as soon as he entered the garden, he found that not only did Imperial Physician Jiang have snacks, but he, the little medicine boy, also had tea to drink. He was immediately flattered and took the tea handed to him by the little palace maid.
Imperial Physician Jiang examined Gu Wanying carefully and reminded her not to touch water for the next few days. After giving her a few brief instructions, he left with the medicine boy.
Yue Tao went out of the palace to do some shopping. As soon as she stepped onto the street, she saw a group of more than ten people carrying boxes tied with bright red flowered silk walking towards the Gu Mansion. Her heart tightened.
Then she thought of Miss Gu Qingqing, the second daughter of the Gu family, who was about to get married. She followed them and after seeing that these things were really carried into the Gu Mansion, she turned around and returned to the palace.
Gu Wanying had just laid down to fall asleep when she saw Yuetao hurriedly walking towards her with a serious look on her face. The young palace maids around her did not dare to approach her.
"What's wrong?" Gu Wanying had never seen Yue Tao like this before, and she couldn't help but ask in confusion.
"Your Majesty, I saw the Sun family propose to the second young lady!" Yue Tao said angrily.
Gu Wanying thought something had happened to make her lose her composure, but she didn't expect it was a betrothal proposal.
"Let's give the betrothal gift. It's indeed time to give the betrothal gift. Those two will be getting married soon!" Gu Wanying yawned loudly, and a few tears overflowed from the corners of her eyes.
Yue Tao was a little puzzled when she saw that she was neither surprised nor anxious.
The Second Miss had actually snatched her young lady's fiancé from her family! Now, those two were getting married in such a high-profile manner. Where did this put the young lady?
This is so ironic for her young lady!
But her young lady looked so calm and composed that Yue Tao suddenly felt that she didn't need to worry about these things!
Her young lady can take it or leave it, she is a courageous woman!
Gu Wanying yawned, touched the pillow, and fell down.
There was no way she was just too sleepy!
Today is the day when the Sun family proposes to the Gu family. Gu Qingqing got up early in the morning to put on makeup in front of the mirror. Looking at herself in the bronze mirror, she seemed to never see enough.
The maid dressed her up carefully, fearing that the second young lady would scold her if she was unhappy.
Gu Qingqing didn't know what the little maid was thinking. She only imagined the days after marrying Brother Chongming. They would definitely be harmonious and sweet.
She added fragrance to his heart, and he painted her eyebrows and eyes. They treated each other with respect and dignity.
She also wants to give birth to several more children for Brother Chongming, preferably three boys and two girls, so that the whole family will be perfect.
The front yard was bustling with activity, and Gu Qingqing knew that someone from the Sun family had come to propose marriage. She walked out happily, and when she reached the second gate, she saw Sun Chongming standing there.
"Brother Chongming!" Gu Qingqing lifted her skirt and walked over quickly, with a girl's reserve and shyness on her face.
Sun Chongming turned around and looked at the woman running towards him, his expression a little dazed.
He saw that it was Gu Wanying walking towards him, and the smile that had just appeared on the corner of his mouth disappeared when he heard the call "Brother Chongming".
He blinked again, saw who it was, and laughed at himself for thinking too much.
Gu Qingqing didn't notice anything unusual about Sun Chongming and started talking to him familiarly.
The Sun family left before lunch, so it would be a bit unreasonable to stay for dinner after the engagement.
The Sun family was a reasonable family, so they went back without wasting a moment.
After the betrothal, the marriage was basically settled. The second day of next month was Gu Qingqing's wedding day. Gu Chen ordered her to stay at home and embroider her wedding dress and not to go out.
This is to temper the bride's temperament. From the wedding dress to the pillowcases and even the socks, they are all embroidered by the bride herself.
Gu Qingqing was not good at needlework, so she embroidered it clumsily, and a month was barely enough for her.
......
Gu Wanying gradually recovered under the careful care of Imperial Physician Jiang. She specially wore the new headdress and planned to meet the emperor.
But after Imperial Physician Jiang looked at it again and again, he felt that something seemed wrong.
The jewelry, from hairpins to hairpins, formed a set of its own. They shone with a bright luster in the sunlight, but the luster was so beautiful that it was not like that of ordinary jewelry, which made Imperial Physician Jiang wary.
"Your Majesty, could you please show me this jewelry?" Imperial Physician Jiang hesitated for a moment before asking.
After a moment of doubt, Gu Wanying decisively took off the hairpin and handed it to Imperial Physician Jiang for inspection.
Imperial Physician Jiang looked at the hairpin several times but couldn't figure out what was going on, so he asked the medicine boy to bring some special medicine.
Feicui brought him a bowl to hold the food. Imperial Physician Jiang threw the hairpin into it. The hairpin hit the bowl with a tinkling sound.
After a while, the potion gradually turned dark in color. Imperial Physician Jiang's eyes became stern, and he thought to himself that there must be something fishy!
Feicui and Yuetao were so frightened that their faces changed!
"How could this happen!" Yue Tao exclaimed.
"This hairpin has been poisoned. I don't know what the poison is. Could Your Majesty please give this hairpin to me? I will definitely find out what the poison is!" Imperial Physician Jiang said with a gloomy face.
The struggles in the harem are no less intense than those in the court, especially since some of the concubines come from prominent aristocratic families and have close ties with the ministers in the court, making the situation even more complicated.
Imperial Physician Jiang did not dare to act rashly.
"But someone wants to harm me?" Gu Wanying looked desolate and wilted.
Yue Tao's eyes turned red, and she wanted to speak but bit her lips tightly.
"It's unknown for now. Your Majesty, please don't wear this jewelry." Imperial Physician Jiang advised.
Gu Wanying agreed readily.
Before the truth of this matter came to light, Gu Wanying instructed Imperial Physician Jiang not to tell the emperor about it, lest the emperor act without thinking out of haste.
Imperial Physician Jiang understood this well; that kick had hit him pretty hard, and the mark on his stomach was still there!
As the spiritual guide of the entire imperial palace, the status of the Imperial Observatory in the entire Dayu Dynasty can be imagined.
And today she finally met the man who was said to have predicted that she was her destined one.
When the director of the Imperial Observatory saw her, he knew her identity before Yue Tao opened her mouth.
He bowed respectfully and said, "Greetings, Her Majesty Wan."
Gu Wanying nodded slightly, sat down at the table with the airs of Concubine Wan, and then lazily raised her hand for him to get up.
The warden was a young man with a pair of eyes that could see through everything.
He immediately made a divination without hesitation, and after a moment, he looked up and asked, "The Queen is haunted by a dark aura. Has she been feeling uneasy these days?"
