Chapter 22 Pulling the Queen into the Water
Doctor Fan raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead:
"Second Prince, I dare not lie to you. Concubine Jing is indeed suffering from poisoning. As for the bowl of decoction, I have also checked it. There is a sufficient amount of Shen Yisan in the decoction. Fortunately, Concubine Jing, she only
Took a taste..."
Yun Xihe had also heard of this Shen Yi Powder. A large amount of safflower was added to this poison. The poisoned person's Qi and blood would flow backwards. If not treated in time, he would bleed to death.
Concubine Jing is quite willing to spare herself.
Hearing what Doctor Fan said, the maid who was close to Concubine Jing immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, your Majesty, your Majesty made this decoction for the Second Prince herself. From the beginning to the end, she never used her hands on others. Her Majesty definitely did not poison herself.
Reason!"
Qin Cang became angry: "Of course I know that Concubine Jing will not poison! Then where did this He Yi Powder come from? Check it out for me! Who prescribed the medicine? Who took the medicine? Are there any records in the medical records? Give them all to me.
check!"
"Back to the emperor, it was Lu Yuanzheng who diagnosed the second prince's pulse..."
"Bring them all together!"
Yun Xihe looked at the imperial doctors in the palace calmly, and when he saw that Dr. Fan still looked calm and composed, he knew that this was Concubine Jing's confidant.
Lu Yuanzheng had received the news in advance, and when he was brought to Jingyang Palace, he looked panicked. He followed the Queen's instructions not to properly diagnose the second prince's illness, but if it was said to be poisoning, he thought he did not have the courage.
"Your Majesty, Wei Chen checked the second prince's pulse early in the morning. The second prince has some vein stasis, but it is not very serious. The pulse records, prescriptions, and records of the medicinal materials are all registered in the register! The emperor will know after checking!"
Lu Yuan was busy defending himself.
Qin Cang took the medical case handed over by the guard with a gloomy face, and handed it to several imperial doctors standing beside him without looking at it, "Look at it carefully! Don't miss a word!" What happened in the past few days,
Each thing made him feel worse than the next!
The imperial doctors looked at Qin Cang's murderous eyes and looked through the medical records tremblingly. After a while, an imperial physician Zhang stood up and said, "Returning to the emperor, as Lu Yuanzheng said, the pulse report for the second prince is
Both the prescription and the prescription are consistent...it's just..."
"Say! Are you still waiting for me to beg you?" Qin Cang was very impatient.
Doctor Zhang raised his hand to wipe his sweat, and then he spoke out in a heartbeat, "It's just that among the medicinal materials taken by Lu Yuanzhong the day before yesterday, there happened to be a large amount of safflower, and the Shen Yisan in the Empress is made of safflower."
....”
When the second prince heard this, he grabbed the hem of Qin Cang's clothes anxiously and horrified, and said, "Father, Lu Yuan is trying to harm me! I am afraid!"
Princess An Yi also pointed at Lu Yuanzheng and said angrily, "Lu Yuanzheng, you dare to murder my imperial brother and my mother and concubine, you are so brave!"
Lu Yuan just started kowtowing with a plop, "Second prince, I am wronged! Your Majesty, please give me a clear warning!"
Doctor Fan said, "Your Majesty, if safflower is used in appropriate amounts, it is also a good medicine for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. Lu Yuan is using safflower, perhaps also for medicinal purposes..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Dr. Zhang immediately retorted, "Doctor Fan was so anxious to excuse Lu Yuanzheng that he didn't even look at the medical records. What kind of disease does it require such a large amount of red flowers to treat?"
Dr. Fan deliberately acted like he didn't know what to say, and looked at Lu Yuanzheng with great embarrassment, "Lu Yuanzheng, please explain quickly..."
Lu Yuan was lying on the ground, completely panicked. Who added the record of his use of medicinal materials? The Queen asked him to boil those medicinal materials. How can this be said?
Emperor Qin Cang's face became increasingly gloomy and he said, "Since Lu Yuanzheng has nothing to say, let's drag him down and execute him Ling Chi."
As soon as these words came out, Lu Yuanzheng was immediately frightened and shook his head: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please spare my life, Wei Chen said! Wei Chen took those red flowers because it was the Queen's wish..."
The emperor immediately frowned, "How outrageous! You dare to bite the queen!"
In his eyes, his harem was peaceful. Although there were occasional jealousies among the women, it was just a small fight. How could something like the queen poisoning a concubine happen?
"Your Majesty, everything the guilty minister said is true, Your Majesty! The day before yesterday, the Empress asked me to boil a bowl of soup medicine with a lot of safflower... That day, Miss Yun Er was in the Queen's Palace.
, was given red flowers..." Lu Yuan was bursting into tears, "But the poison that Concubine Jing was exposed to has nothing to do with the guilty minister, Your Majesty!"
He turned to look at Yun Xihe on the side and asked, "Xihe, is this serious?"
A trace of displeasure at being plotted flashed through Yun Xihe's heart, but then she thought, from the moment she opened her eyes again, wasn't she wading in the muddy waters of imperial power? She plotted against others, and others plotted against her.
Myself, what do I have?
So she replied truthfully, "To tell you the truth, your Majesty, my second sister had already had a miscarriage when she returned to the mansion, and she was unconscious in the mansion for another day before she woke up."
A trace of surprise flashed across Qin Cang's face. What Yun Ying'er was carrying was the flesh and blood of the prince. How could the queen really do this?
Yun Xihe lowered his head and stopped talking. He probably understood Qin Cang's confusion. After all, in his eyes, no matter how good the Yun family's marriage was, it was not as important as the heirs of the royal family. However, he did not expect that the queen would be more important.
What matters most is that the prince should be pure and clean, with no leaves touching his body.
Qin Cang said, "Go and bring the queen."
After Empress Xue heard that Yun Xihe had entered the palace, she sent someone to invite him. When she heard that Yun Xihe had been brought to Jingyang Palace by An Yi, she also came in person.
As soon as the emperor finished speaking, Queen Xue's honor guard had already entered Jingyang Palace.
As soon as Qin Cang saw her coming in, he raised his hand and smashed the tea bowl beside him: "Poisonous woman!"
"emperor!"
Queen Xue's expression changed. She had never been so humiliated by the emperor.
She glanced around and saw that the emperor's eyes were full of disappointment. A room full of imperial doctors were surrounding Concubine Jing, the second prince and An Yi were glaring at her, and Yun Xihe was standing aside, looking down at the ground.
, I don’t know what I’m thinking, only Lu Yuan is kneeling on the ground and shivering.
Empress Xue felt uneasy, but she still asked puzzledly, "Why is the emperor so angry? As soon as I heard that sister Jingfei fell ill, I hurried to visit. At this time, I don't know when I annoyed the emperor.
, please also express it clearly, Your Majesty."
Qin Cang had no intention of beating around the bush with her:
"Xue Baolan! Yun Ying'er had a miscarriage and Concubine Jing was poisoned. You are inextricably linked to everything. You killed the emperor's heirs and poisoned the concubines. You are so brave!"
The queen took a long breath, and her heart suddenly lifted. It was true that she was the cause of Yun Ying'er's pregnancy, but what does it have to do with Concubine Jing, a bitch who should have died long ago, whether she was poisoned or not?
She was about to refute, but Princess An Yi didn't give her a chance.
"Empress, An Yi heard that twenty years ago, my mother and concubine had dystocia because of the flowers you sent every day. If it weren't for my mother and concubine to test the medicine for my brother today, it would be his brother lying here.
