Chapter 62 Not Too Many Coincidences
The Queen Mother immediately said in a deep voice: "Old Man Ji, do you know who is from Ningxi?"
Doctor Ji's forehead was covered with sweat. He said, "Your Majesty, please wait for me to check it out first."
"Ji Lingheng!" The Queen Mother was instantly furious, "Do you want me to die?"
"Queen Mother, what nonsense are you talking about?" Doctor Ji said anxiously, "This person is the eldest princess's aunt."
"Are you talking about Qin Gu who is beside Feng Xi?" the Queen Mother asked after thinking for a moment.
Jun Fengxi is the empress dowager's daughter and the third sister of the current emperor, but she seldom comes to the palace.
Just a while ago, the Queen Mother caught a cold. The eldest princess got the news and came back to see her mother, and among the people who accompanied her was, of course, Qin Gu.
Mo Yunzhu was dumbfounded and said with a wry smile, "No way? How could this Qin Gu be from Ningxi?"
The Queen Mother looked very bad and her breath was a little unstable. It was obvious that the person who was doing the evil was someone close to her daughter, which made her panic.
Doctor Ji looked at Mo Yunzhu and said, "Miss, the eldest princess loved your father very much and followed him to the battlefield. This Qin Gu was saved by the eldest princess on the road and she even blocked an arrow for her."
"I only know that there seems to be some unhappiness between the eldest princess and my father, but I don't know what it is specifically." Mo Yunzhu smiled bitterly.
The Queen Mother suddenly sighed and said, "Girl, your father saved my life that year, and I agreed to one condition for him, and your father's condition was that he did not want to marry Feng Xi.
Your father has liked your mother since he was very young. They were childhood sweethearts and loved each other very much.
So I originally promised Feng Xi to marry your father off, but you asked, so I didn't do it in the end.
I told Feng Xi that a forced melon is not sweet, but Feng Xi has always blamed me for this incident and has not interacted with me for several years. Alas.
It was not until I became the Queen Mother that she finally came to her senses and the relationship between mother and daughter improved. Feng Xi had someone kill your mother, but she failed in the end. So your father and Feng Xi can actually be said to be incompatible. Alas..."
Mo Yunzhu never expected that things in the previous generation were so complicated.
"Let's get down to business, even if Aunt Qin is from Ningxi, why would she bewitch the Ai family? The Ai family doesn't believe that Feng Xi is so cruel to my mother."
Doctor Ji said, "I am not sure whether it was her or not. I just happened to know that Qin Gu was from Ningxi Country and happened to have visited the palace a few days ago."
"There are not so many coincidences, Old Man Ji. I said it before that there are not so many coincidences in this world. There are only carefully planned schemes." The Queen Mother sneered.
Mo Yunzhu instantly felt that the Queen Mother was the Queen Mother, and this was so insightful.
"Check it carefully. Even though I don't believe it, I have to check it." The Queen Mother said sternly.
"I understand, Queen Mother. Should I tell the Emperor about this?"
"Your Majesty?" The Queen Mother said with a smile, "Do you think he cares about me? After all, he is not my biological son."
"Queen Dowager, would you like to allow Prince Deqing to come to the palace to see you?" Prince Deqing is the Queen Dowager's biological son. He has a mansion outside the palace, has no real power, enjoys royal food, and is a leisurely prince.
"No need. If he wants to be safe, he can't be close to me, his mother." The Queen Mother looked a little sad.
"Girl, how is Prince Lan?" The Queen Mother obviously didn't want to talk about those bad things. After all, the royal family was too complicated.
"Prince Lan is doing well." Mo Yunzhu smiled immediately.
"The wedding is going to take place in a dozen days, right?"
Doctor Ji immediately said unhappily, "Originally, the wedding was scheduled for a dozen days, but today the Emperor suddenly said that he wanted to postpone the wedding of Miss and Prince Lan! The reason is that Prince Lan's Mansion has not been repaired yet, and he said that Miss was wronged and that she had to wait until Prince Lan's Mansion was repaired before the wedding could take place. Actually..."
Doctor Ji's tone is very much like that of an old boy, which shows that the relationship between him and the Queen Mother is really close. Of course, Mo Yunzhu believes that their friendship is pure, or it can be said to be a pure secret love.
The Queen Mother was stunned. She looked at Doctor Ji and asked, "What's the matter? Old Man Ji, why are you so shy when you speak today?"
"Empress Dowager, I think the Emperor seems to have taken a liking to the eldest lady." Imperial Physician Ji looked at Mo Yunzhu.
"It's not as if, it's already!" Mo Yunzhu added.
"What? Is he having a bad temper?" The Queen Mother was shocked.
"The eldest lady has shown her edge recently. She is much more interesting than the well-behaved young lady before. The emperor is probably tempted to let his lustful desires get aroused again." Doctor Ji knows the emperor very well.
"Even so, doesn't he know that Yun Zhu was his son's Crown Princess before! And now she is his son's Princess Lan! Can she still be his concubine? This is simply nonsense! He is going to lose face for our ancestors." The Queen Mother was very angry.
"Queen Mother, calm down and cool down." Mo Yunzhu said hurriedly, "Even if the emperor likes me, he can't make me his concubine."
"Why not? He is the emperor. If the imperial decree is issued, you and the Mo family will be unable to resist."
"Empress Dowager, the Emperor still wants to save face. I have defeated him before, and he probably won't do that in a short time. And I will find a way to be with Prince Lan, so you don't have to worry." Mo Yunzhu said with a smile.
"Girl, you seem to really like Prince Shanglan?" The Queen Mother was very surprised.
"Queen Mother, it won't happen so fast. I just feel that so many things have happened and I have seen through many people. Although Prince Lan has no power and influence and is in poor health, I don't ask for wealth and honor. I just want someone who can treat me sincerely."
"The prince has disappointed me." The queen mother sighed deeply, "I think I shouldn't have arranged a marriage for you and the prince."
"Empress Dowager, it's all in the past. As long as you are fine, I will be happy. Don't ask the Emperor about this matter. Just pretend you don't know." Mo Yunzhu smiled sweetly.
The Queen Mother also laughed, called Nanny Qin, and gave Mo Yunzhu a lot of gifts to take back, and also gave Prince Lan a lot of gifts.
She was too conspicuous before, but now that Mo Yunzhu has entered the palace, no one dares to say anything if she is taken out. After all, everyone is jealous of the Queen Mother's favor for Mo Yunzhu.
On the way, Mo Yunzhu said to Doctor Ji who came with her, "Doctor Ji, I need to find a herb called Xiangyinzhi. The Queen Mother's parasite can only be drawn out with this herb."
"Xiang Yinzhi! This thing is very rare, and it may not be found." Doctor Ji was anxious, "Isn't the Queen Mother impatient?"
"So you have to do it as soon as possible. Generally speaking, if the worms eat well, the host's body can support them for a long time. Please prepare some nutritional supplements for the Queen Mother recently so that the worms will have something to eat."
"Okay, okay, but what if we can't find the incense sticks?"
"Then capture Qin Gu alive and force her to take the Gu." Mo Yunzhu narrowed her eyes with a cold light in them. She didn't want anything to happen to the empress dowager.
"What if it's not her?"
"It must be her. The Queen Mother is right. There aren't so many coincidences. In fact, it is very likely that the eldest princess ordered it."
"What, no way..."
"I just have this feeling. I hope it's not the case, otherwise the Queen Mother will be very sad." Mo Yunzhu sighed inwardly.
In fact, if it was really the eldest princess, she would be able to understand it. After all, a woman's jealousy and hatred are difficult to disappear with time.
Doctor Ji suddenly became worried, and Mo Yunzhu smiled and said, "Don't worry too much, I'll go to Wanyao Pavilion now."
