Chapter 51 Poisoning



Concubine Zhuang, Empress Jing'an's best sister and best friend. She thought Concubine Zhuang and she had the same ideas, they talked about the same topics, and Concubine Zhuang always got her point. Over time, the two became best friends.

However, she never thought about the complexity of human hearts.

Ever since Concubine Zhuang had been locked up, she had been sending her a sweet dish every day, either a sweet soup or a sweet soup. At first, she refused to see her, but after she knelt at the door for two hours, she finally let her in.

After Concubine Zhuang had sobbed for a while, she allowed her to visit her every day. She drank every dessert Concubine Zhuang sent her until her chest began to ache.

No one in the deep palace could be trusted, so she went to find the imperial physician Ouyang, whose life she had saved. After taking her pulse, he said with a sullen face that she had been poisoned every day for at least two years.

Imperial Physician Ouyang tested the syrup that Concubine Zhuang had sent that day and found it to be poisonous, consistent with her symptoms of poisoning.

Doctor Ouyang said seriously that the poisoning must be stopped immediately. He would find a way to detoxify her. He must have a way. As long as he was given a few months, she would be able to recover.

After hearing this, Queen Jing'an shook her head and said with a smile, "I'm going to see my two children." Her true inner thoughts were: if she died, would she return to the modern era? She missed her parents.

Queen Jing'an worked day and night to develop the mirror, hoping to complete it before her death. It would be her best gift to the world, but now she has failed again.

Every day, whenever she had some free time, she would think of her daughter, who had been taken away by the Imperial Concubine. She had not seen her daughter for three years. Her daughter's nickname was Jiajia. Others thought it meant home for festivals, but she knew it meant home for returning home.

In that family, her name was Zhou Shuyan, so the two maids beside her were named Zishu and Ziyan. They always reminded herself not to forget that her name in modern times was Zhou Shuyan.

A few days ago, the emperor stood in front of Fengyang Palace for two quarters of an hour. She has not seen the emperor in the past three years. It is always the Imperial Noble Consort who comes forward to attend banquets and ceremonies.

There was also a reason why she refused to marry an Imperial Noble Consort. An Imperial Noble Consort would only be appointed when the Empress was seriously ill or there was no longer another Empress. However, the Emperor appointed an Imperial Noble Consort without even consulting her.

She was born into a distinguished family, the eldest daughter of the aristocratic Rongyang Wang family. Her maiden name was Fangting. At one point, she disliked the name as old-fashioned and strongly requested a change, but her request was denied. Her name was given by her grandmother, and she could not refuse it once it was bestowed upon her by her elders.

Perhaps it was from that time that she finally realized the difference between ancient times and modern times. In modern times, if you give your reasons, your parents will consider helping you change your name. In ancient times, it was absolutely not allowed, otherwise it would be regarded as disobedient and unfilial.

But she woke up too late. She could write poems at the age of three and paint at the age of five, and her poetry and songs had already made her famous. When she lowered her profile, she was chosen to be the prince's consort. What awaited her was the place she least wanted to go.

Sometimes she wondered if she could return to ancient times, she would never use modern things to gain fame. If she hadn't married into the royal family, she could have divorced them if her child had been murdered and she had faced countless schemes. Instead of being like now, with no other recourse but to stay indoors, there were no divorced empresses in the royal family, only deceased ones.

But she knew her heart. If she had the chance to be reborn, she would rather return to the modern era, live a simple life with her parents, work hard, and do some handicrafts in her spare time.

This is a cannibalistic feudal society where people are eaten without leaving any bones. She doesn't want to live here anymore. She wants to go home.
