Rebirth of the Noble Daughter

Chapter 423 434. Poisoning
Concubine Zhen was shocked and paced back and forth in the hall.

"No way, the empress poisoned Concubine Xian so openly?"

Concubine Zhen didn't believe it, but the facts were like this, it was impossible for Concubine Liu Xian to poison herself.

After Emperor Qi and the Empress heard about this, they also immediately went to Concubine Liu Xian's palace.

Although loving her is not necessary in normal times, but now the sixth prince has just been dispatched to work, and his mother and concubine were poisoned in the palace.

No matter how you look at it, it was aimed at him and not Liu Xianfei, so Emperor Qi was furious!
The order was to thoroughly investigate who was behind the scenes. Soon, the imperial physician found a large amount of hibiscus cakes in Concubine Xian's vomit.

And the spearhead was directed at Concubine Wei.

Soon, Concubine Wei was summoned in astonishment, as soon as she entered the door, she saw the empress's gloomy face, while Concubine Liu Xian on the bed was pale and extremely weak.

"The concubine has met His Majesty and the Empress."

"Get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"You came to visit Concubine Xian today, what's wrong?"

Emperor Qi asked straight to the point.

And his eyes were fixed on Wei Guifei, for fear of missing a little bit of her expression.

Seeing that she was very frank, she looked at Emperor Qi firmly and said.

"It's not wrong, but the concubine also heard that the concubine's sister was poisoned after eating the hibiscus cake made in the palace's kitchen, so she has already withheld all the ingredients and manpower in the small kitchen, Your Majesty and Empress If you want to ask, you can do it anytime."

She took herself out with just one sentence, but no one with a discerning eye would know that it was in her own palace. Could it be that the evidence couldn't be destroyed?
Therefore, there is no difference between checking and not checking.

"Little sister's move is embarrassing for the palace and His Majesty, and we don't want to believe that things that pass through your hands will be poisoned, but if the concubine Xian is not treated in time, the medicine stone will be useless now. So, no matter what, how much is my sister There is still some involvement, so temporarily live in the Hanzhang Palace, and wait for everything to come out before coming out."

It's called exhortation, but it's actually under house arrest.

No one in the room could tell, Concubine Wei looked at Emperor Qi, could it be that years of husband and wife's kindness could not be exchanged for his trust?
It's a pity that she didn't hear Emperor Qi speak until the end.

Sadness is greater than heart death, and human death is second.

She is arrogant and domineering, and it's hard to tolerate her, but what she does is what she does, and what she doesn't do doesn't.

She couldn't get used to Concubine Xian, and deliberately forced her to eat that portion of hibiscus cake, she admitted.

But she said she poisoned it, but she denied it.

Even a fool wouldn't be so blunt to let people take advantage of him, but Emperor Qi was thinking in another direction, playing hard to catch, wanting to refuse but still welcoming.

She was sure that everyone thought she wouldn't be so stupid to do it directly, so as to avoid her suspicion.

It is not impossible to find another way.

As a result, Concubine Wei did not get the slightest hint of retention from Emperor Qi until she turned around and left.

Thinking of her "nonsense" these days, Concubine Wei felt extremely ridiculous.

Concubine Liu Xian who was on the bed was obviously still affected by the residual poison, so she had been sleeping restlessly.

Emperor Qi and the queen sat down for a while and left.

Before he left, he sent two capable female doctors to stay in the side hall, so that he could treat him in time if something happened.

Fortunately, after she vomited three or four times, she finally got rid of all the poison, but she lost a lot of money because of it.

On weekdays, because of the severe cleansing and asceticism, the body has not received much maintenance. After such a toss, it only took a few days to lose weight.

Said the maid who waited on her.

"Fortunately, His Highness the Sixth Highness is not in the capital now. If she sees the empress like this, she will be very distressed."

When mentioning her only son, Concubine Liu Xian showed a faint smile.

It can't be called Konggu Youlan, but it also has a taste of Xiaojiabiyu.

She came from a low family background, and her looks and talents were not outstanding, and she was used to being an invisible person in the harem these years. If this matter hadn't caused a lot of trouble, according to her previous temperament, she would probably just endure it and get over it.

"You too, there's such a big commotion, now everyone in the palace is staring at us, it's not good for the emperor."

When he is away from home, the most important thing is to be safe and sound. If she arouses the jealousy of others in the palace and stretches out her poisonous hands to the sixth prince, then it will be very dangerous.

This is also the reason why she tolerated Concubine Wei so much, she just didn't want anything to happen to him.

"Your Majesty, she has already poisoned you to death, why do you have to be patient. If you want this servant to tell you, you should insist that it was her who poisoned you, so that His Majesty can see what kind of snake and scorpion she is!"

Concubine Liu Xian shook her head weakly.

"The imperial concubine is backed by the Wei family and favored by the Prince Li. It's not easy to bring her down? Even if I were poisoned to death today, His Majesty may not attack the imperial concubine Wei, so why are you making trouble? It's useless."

Cough and cough, she has vomited a lot these days, her stomach is always uncomfortable, and her throat is hurt, so talking too much will cause coughing.

The maid next to her immediately brought a glass of warm water to moisten her throat.

"Your Majesty is kind, she has never beaten or scolded the slaves, so the slaves can't bear to see you being bullied like this."

"Okay, haven't you been here for so many years? You always remember that the less conspicuous I am here, the safer the emperor will be, you know?"

"Yes, ma'am."

After the master and servant talked for a while, Concubine Liu Xian was obviously exhausted.

After taking the medicine, he fell asleep again in a drowsy state.

And the maid who had just served her took off the earring when she returned to the room. No one found that the beads of the earring were hollow, and what was placed inside was the poison that Concubine Liu Xian had been poisoned by.

After cleaning all the powder in the earrings and restoring them again, even if the people from Dali Temple came, they couldn't find out what she did.

In Yongle Palace, the empress was obviously much more comfortable with Concubine Wei being grounded.

The headache that had lasted for many days seemed to have been taken from a elixir, and it got better for no reason. After the nurse next to her pushed everyone away, she whispered to her.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, the person we arranged in the Imperial Concubine's Palace has already started, and within a month, she will definitely lose her mind!"

A crazy concubine is a crucial point in their game of chess.

After Wei Guogong was assassinated and blinded in one eye, he secretly began to retaliate wildly against the eldest prince's party.

Several people they placed in the court either died inexplicably, or the road that should have had the opportunity to climb up was blocked.

Although they are upstarts, a few accidental injuries won't have much impact on their overall situation, but they come and go, they just don't take them seriously.
