As expected, Ju Qing lived up to Ning Cai's expectations and found a skilled eunuch. Ning Cai made a bowl of lotus seed soup for the concubine.【】
"This is arsenic." Ning Cairen put a small packet of powder into the eunuch's hand, "You have to wait until they try the silver needle before administering the medicine. With your skills, it shouldn't be a problem, right?"
After the eunuch left, Ning Cairen held Ju Qing in his arms and waited.
Both the master and the servant had their hearts in their throats, whether they were dead or alive, and this time.
If it succeeds, the emperor will be blessed again; if it fails, the eunuch will die in his place.
"Ju Qing, have all arrangements been made for his family?" Ning Cairen choked with sobs.
Ju Qing nodded.
"Ju Qing, do you think I'm too cruel?"
Ju Qing shook her head, "In my heart, my mistress is always kind. I am forced to do this. I have no choice but to do so."
"My death doesn't matter, but I can't harm my family."
Ju Qing nodded, "My lord, I understand."
The master and the servant began to cry softly.
"Miss, Concubine Shu sent someone to deliver lotus seed soup."
As soon as Liu Xiaoxuan heard this, she became pregnant. What's going on these days? Can't the women in the harem give anything else besides anti-fetal medicine?
They delivered anti-abortion pills every day, which annoyed her to death. If I didn’t accept them, it didn’t seem to give them any face. They were usually very prejudiced against her. But I did accept them because I was afraid of receiving abortion pills, but I had collected so much.
Except for Ning Cai’s, the other women’s anti-fetal medicines are all good tonics. Drinking them made her fatter and fatter.
"Shu Fei?" This name sounds familiar. Where have you heard it before?
"That's the vicious woman who burned the young lady's clothes on the day of the canonization ceremony." Pei'er gritted her teeth.
"Well, isn't she waiting in the cold palace? Why do you ask someone to bring lotus seed soup? Could it be that she wants to please the young lady and come out?" Zhu'er also hated her eyes so much that she almost fell out of her eyes. Anyone who harmed her young lady would...
She hates them all.
Liu Xiaoxuan remembered that on the day of the canonization, the corner of her clothes was ignited by phosphorus powder. If it was not extinguished quickly, Miss Xue's body would have rotted by now.
She felt that things were strange that day, but she didn't think about it anymore. Now, does Concubine Shu want her to plead for the emperor? In the Cold Palace, women who enter will eventually go crazy, right? She doesn't dare to think about a beautiful woman.
The woman looked crazy, which was really terrifying.
In fact, she was just a little frightened. The emperor seemed to have punished Concubine Shu too severely.
"Let that person bring the anti-fetal medicine. It's all her wish."
Liu Xiaoxuan finally understood. Although everyone wanted her to die, everyone still loved her unborn child. After all, this was the emperor's first child.
The eunuch came in soon.
Pearl picked up the lotus seed soup, and Peier was called out to help by someone outside.
Liu Xiaoxuan is drinking tonic medicine.
"How is Concubine Shu?" Liu Xiaoxuan put down the medicine and asked.
The eunuch said respectfully, "The empress is not very good. She blames herself day and night. Now she is all thin. But she was very happy when she heard that the concubine was happy. She cooked lotus seed soup with her own hands and asked the maid to beg many people to see her.
It's so pitiful that I sent this bowl of lotus seed soup to the imperial concubine, and asked the imperial concubine to accept her intention."
As usual, Zhu Er used a silver needle to test the lotus seed soup to confirm its poison.
The tangy fragrance made Liu Xiaoxuan particularly greedy.
She swallowed her saliva and said, "Thank you, Concubine Shu, for me."
"Of course, the imperial concubine has nothing else to do, so I will take my leave."
"Father-in-law, walk slowly."
As soon as the eunuch left, Liu Xiaoxuan couldn't wait to say, "Zhu'er, come on, come and give me a drink. Oh my god, I haven't had lotus seed soup for a long time."
Pearl was a little reluctant, "Mom, although the silver needle cannot be tested to be poisonous, there is no guarantee that it is not an abortion pill."
"Oh, Pearl, I think you are too neurotic, right? Isn't this just a bowl of lotus seed soup?" Liu Xiaoxuan finished speaking and was about to grab it.
Pearl hid it behind her back, "Whether it's poisonous or not, Miss, you are not allowed to eat things sent by other palaces in the future. Things are sent so frequently in the palace these days. It was poisonous at first. Who knows what will happen next?"
What? Besides, if you really want to eat lotus seed soup, I will make it."
"Oh, why don't you go to such trouble? If there are ready-made ones, you won't eat them." Liu Xiaoxuan begged pitifully.
Pearl turned a blind eye to her pleas.
Seeing Zhu'er about to take away the bowl of lotus seed soup and throw it away, she quickly chased after her, "Okay Zhu'er, can I just take a small sip?"
Pearl was in a dilemma, her young lady looked so greedy that she couldn't wait any longer.
"Okay." Zhuernai scooped a small spoonful for her.
Liu Xiaoxuan's eyes sparkled, hey, delicious food is coming.
"The Emperor has arrived"
The lotus seed soup that was about to reach her mouth flew away like this. Liu Xiaoxuan was very unwilling and snatched the entire bowl of lotus seed soup from Zhuer's hand.
Zhu'er knelt down to greet the emperor, while Liu Xiaoxuan turned her back to the emperor and wanted to drink the lotus seed soup.
"Xi'er, what are you doing sneakily?" The emperor rushed to her.
Liu Xiaoxuan, who was about to take a few more sips of the lotus seed soup, shook her hand and dropped the spoon to the ground.
Liu Xiaoxuan smiled softly, "Yao, I'm drinking tonics all day long."
The emperor stared at the bowl, "What is this?"
"Back to the emperor, this is the lotus seed soup sent by Concubine Shu." Zhu'er answered for Liu Xiaoxuan.
After hearing this, the emperor frowned. Ever since Concubine Shu was thrown into the cold palace, Concubine Shu has been a taboo topic.
Liu Xiaoxuan put the lotus seed soup down and said, "Your Majesty, even if Concubine Shu made a mistake, she is not guilty of this. She has been in the cold palace for almost three months, and it's time to release her."
The emperor's eyebrows frowned even more tightly.
With a look from Liu Xiaoxuan, Zhu'er stepped back, but then she doubled back and took away the bowl of lotus seed soup. Liu Xiaoxuan was so angry that she glared at her.
"Yao, now that I'm pregnant, we should do some good deeds for our child, right?" Liu Xiaoxuan simply acted coquettishly and shook the emperor's shoulders.
The emperor did not move.
"Yao"
The emperor remained unmoved.
"How about I try something different tonight?"
Hearing this, someone's eyes lit up, this deal seemed good.
"You are always so considerate of others. If it were others, you would wish Concubine Shu died." The emperor pinched her nose.
Liu Xiaoxuan reached out and covered his mouth, "If you say something unlucky, the baby is listening."
Hearing this, the emperor smiled and put his head on her belly, "I'll listen."
"What are you listening to? If you are so big, what will happen?"
"I like to listen." After the emperor said it, he put his ear close to her, and she could even feel the warmth from his ear.
"So, the emperor agreed to let Concubine Shu go?"
"How are you going to please me tonight?" Someone raised his eyes and smiled evilly.
Liu Xiaoxuan was stunned.
Isn't this kind of evil smile unique to modern gangsters?
He is a king, so he must pay attention to his image. Image is the most important thing!
