She plotted against Hong Shi and Nala, but never planned this. How could it be like this? After thinking for a while, an idea suddenly came to her mind. Could it be that this was Nala's plan, and she deliberately poisoned Hong Shi and framed the blame?
For her? If that's the case, things are going to be very bad.
Thinking of this, she turned her eyes to look at Nala, and saw that he was crying, and his expression was mournful, which did not seem to be a lie. However, she also knew that Nala was the best at putting on a show, and it was so easy to see through the truth and lies.
In this kind of thinking, Ling Ruo already said: "Who is so cruel that he poisoned the second elder brother?"
"Don't you know about my sister?" Nala wiped her tears and said sadly: "Hongshi told me that he only went to my sister's place today. As for my sister's place, he didn't even take a bite after he came.
Haven’t eaten yet?”
"Does the empress doubt my concubine?" Ling Ruo said solemnly: "Yes, the second elder brother had a cup of tea at my concubine's place, but I have always treated my second elder brother as if she were her own child, how could I poison him!"
"Sister, please don't misunderstand me. This is not what I meant. It's just...just..." Nala barely stopped crying for a while because these words fell again, crossing her cheeks where makeup had been removed, and flowing down the corners of her mouth.
Fine wrinkles dripped to the ground, and he continued after a while: "It's just Hongshi."
As soon as he fell down, I...I had no idea at all. I just wanted to know why Hongshi was poisoned. I was very scared, very afraid that Hongshi would go like this." When she said this, her whole body was full of emotions.
Trembling constantly, like the last leaf hanging on a branch in late autumn, showing a rare weakness.
"Hongshi will be fine." Yinzhen couldn't bear it and held her shoulders to comfort her. Nala's look reminded him of when Honghui left.
Nala said with tears in her eyes: "Your Majesty, I have already lost Honghui, and I must not lose Hongshi again. You must save him, you must save him."
"I know, don't worry too much." Listening to her talk about Honghui, Yinzhen's heart became heavier and heavier. Honghui's early death had always been something he couldn't let go of. This eldest son had placed many hopes on him.
After Nala's mood calmed down a little, he added: "But I believe that Concubine Xi will not poison Hongshi. There must be some misunderstanding."
Nala, who was wiping away her tears, froze when she heard this, but in the blink of an eye she was back to normal. She nodded with tears in her eyes and said, "I also know that my sister has always looked down upon Hong Shi, so how could she be cruel and harm her? I'm just a concubine."
I just became so anxious that I suspected my sister. I hope my sister won't take offense."
"I understand that the queen is worried about the safety of her second elder brother, so how can she be surprised?" Ling Ruo said, her eyes spreading over Yinzhen, with tenderness in them. She was not surprised that Nala was suspicious of her.
But he didn't expect that Yinzhen would believe her so much this time.
Don’t doubt it for the rest of your life, maybe it’s really possible…
After these words, the palace fell into an unbearable silence, and all eyes were focused on Hong Shi, waiting to see the effect of the medicine.
At this moment, someone walked in, but it was Nian. Before he could salute, Yinzhen said, "Su Yan, why are you here?"
Nian bowed, her eyebrows and eyes were delicate and picturesque in the candlelight, "Returning to the emperor, I overheard that the queen urgently reported that two imperial doctors had come to Kunning Palace. I was afraid that something would happen to the queen, so I came to take a look."
"It's difficult for the imperial concubine to be interested." Nala's eyes flickered and he whispered: "It's not that I have something wrong with me, it's Hongshi..."
Nian was suddenly startled and saw Hongshi lying on the bed, and asked hurriedly: "What's wrong with Hongshi?"
"He was poisoned and his life was in danger." After hearing Nala's words, Nian shook his head repeatedly and said in disbelief: "How could this happen? Does your Majesty know where the poison comes from?"
"I don't know yet. I have to wait until Hongshi wakes up before asking him." While saying this, Nara's eyes kept falling on Hongshi. She was really scared.
Not because of feelings, but because if Hongshi loses her, her position as queen will be in jeopardy, let alone her future throne as queen mother, so Hongshi must not die!
Nian's eyebrows, which grew slanting into her temples, were slightly raised. She turned to Doctor Deng and asked, "When will the second elder brother wake up?"
Dr. Deng was a little embarrassed when he heard this and didn't know how to answer. Instead, Nala said: "My sister misunderstood. Dr. Liu prescribed the medicine, and Dr. Deng didn't know about it."
Nian's eyes sharpened, and then she stroked her sleeves and said, "Really? I thought that as the deputy director of the hospital, Dr. Deng's medical skills should be better than those of Dr. Liu. Why didn't the queen let Dr. Deng take a look?
"
This time, before Nala could answer, Doctor Deng had already blushed and said with an old face: "Weichen's medical skills are shallow and he can't be a noble concubine. This time the second elder brother was poisoned, and Weichen didn't diagnose anything except Aconitum."
There is another kind of poison, but fortunately Imperial Doctor Liu was careful, otherwise he would have missed the second elder brother’s condition, and Wei Chen’s ten lives would not be enough to pay for it.”
"Is there such a thing?" Nian looked surprised and couldn't believe it, but she didn't say anything more.
At that time, a palace attendant came in, saluted Imperial Physician Liu and said, "To Imperial Physician Liu, an hour has arrived." This palace attendant was originally ordered by Imperial Physician Liu to stand in front of the self-ringing bell, and ordered him to come as soon as the hour came.
Notification.
Doctor Liu nodded slightly and stepped forward to check Hongshi's pulse. Following his action, everyone's hearts were aroused and they stared at him without blinking.
Doctor Liu didn't diagnose for too long, and he withdrew his hand after only a moment. Just as Nala was about to ask questions, he saw him pulling out the silver needle again and pricking Hongshi with a few needles. As he administered the silver needle,
, Yinzhen and others could clearly see that the black air on Hong Shi's face was slowly fading away. Needless to say, they knew that the medicine must have had an effect.
Sure enough, after administering the acupuncture, Imperial Physician Liu turned around and cupped his hands and said, "I'm so lucky to have fulfilled my duty. The second elder brother is no longer in danger of his life."
"Doctor Liu, are you sure?" Nala asked anxiously, with endless joy in his eyes.
"I dare to guarantee my life, so the queen can rest assured." Imperial Physician Liu said confidently, but Imperial Physician Deng, on the other hand, looked dejected. I don't know if he was ashamed of his medical skills or for some other reason.
"Then when will the second elder brother wake up?" Yinzhen also let out a sigh of relief. Everyone was happy that Hongshi was fine. Moreover, he did not have many heirs. If something happened to Hongshi again, it would be even thinner.
Just as Imperial Physician Liu was about to answer, he heard a faint voice coming from between the beds. When he asked about the voice, he saw Hong Shi opening his eyes.
Lan Ling was the first to react, threw himself to the bedside and cried with joy: "Second brother, are you awake?"
"Where am I?" Hongshi opened his eyes blankly. He only knew that his body was experiencing severe pain, and then a sweet smell spurted out from his throat, and then he didn't know anything else.
