Chapter 233 Smallpox Again (2)
Chapter 233 Smallpox Again ()
In the middle of the night, Zhou Yan's high fever subsided. It's a pity that before Yuchen could take a breath, Zhou Xia's side failed again, and it was also on fire.
Yuchen didn't panic anymore, and immediately called Imperial Physician He and asked him if he could give Zhou Xia the previous medicine. Although Yuchen has not studied pharmacology like Yuxi, she also knows that everyone's physical condition is different, even for the same disease, the amount of medicine used is also different. Otherwise, there will be problems.
Imperial Physician He shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, the princess is relatively weak, and it is not appropriate to use too dangerous medicine." This means that Zhou Xia cannot use the same medicine as Zhou Yan.
Yuchen asked: "Is there any other way?"
Doctor He really doesn't have a good method.
Zhou Xia's fever became more and more severe, and finally he became unconscious, and if the fever did not subside, he would die. After hearing Imperial Physician Le say that if he continues to burn like this, he will become an idiot even if he does not die, Yuchen couldn't bear it any longer, and forced Imperial Physician He to prescribe a prescription regardless of Imperial Physician He's objection. right
As a result, this time he was not so lucky. Not long after Zhou Xia took the medicine, he started to sweat and then trembled.
Doctor He knew something was wrong just by looking at it.
Zhou Xia couldn't stand it at all, and called out in a low voice: "Mother Concubine, Mother Concubine, I'm still feeling bad..." Before Yuchen could speak, his voice fell silent.
Yuchen hugged Zhou Xia and shouted loudly: "Xia'er, what's wrong with you, Xia'er? Xia'er, Xia'er..." Unfortunately, Zhou Xia could no longer respond to her words.
Imperial Physician He put his hand under Zhou Xia's nose. Seeing that he was not breathing, he immediately knelt on the ground and said, "My concubine's condolences, the princess has gone..."
Hearing this news, Yuchen said in a low voice: "Impossible, this is impossible?" Her Xia'er, who was calling her concubine mother softly a few days ago, how could she be gone!
Just as Nanny Gui was about to speak, she saw Yuchen collapsed on the ground, and was immediately startled. After hurriedly helping Yuchen to bed, Nanny Gui clasped her hands together, praying in her heart that the princess must not be infected with smallpox.
Imperial Physician He took Yuchen's pulse, and said softly, "Princess Wang has been overworked during this time, and now she is stimulated again, that's why she fainted."
Hearing this, Nanny Gui finally let go of her hanging heart, it's not as if she was infected with smallpox. Nanny Gui clasped her hands together, and Amitabha said, "Thank you Bodhisattva for your protection."
King Jing was also very sad to hear that his son survived and his daughter was gone, so he ordered the housekeeper and said, "Go to Huangqi Temple and invite monks to come and save the princess!" King Jing's favorite is Zhou Yan, after all, it is his Heirs, naturally, pay more attention to it. But he also liked this first daughter very much. Now that it's gone, he also wants the child to go well.
Before the order here was finished, a servant girl came in from outside and said: "My lord, my concubine is awake..."
King Jing walked quickly into the bedroom, saw Yuchen who had opened his eyes, and said softly, "Is there anything better?"
Yuchen stared blankly at King Jing, suddenly grabbed King Jing's hand and said, "My lord, I just had a terrible dream, dreaming that Yan'er and Xia'er were murdered." Having said that, Yuchen yelled at Nanny Gui, "Hurry up and hug Yan'er and Xia'er enough."
Gui Momo's face was full of tears, she knelt on the ground and said, "Mother, the princess has already gone. If you are like this, the princess will not be at ease under the nine springs." She knows that the princess will be sad when the princess passes away. , but did not expect that the princess was so sad that she lost her mind.
When Nanny Gui knelt down, everyone else in the room knelt down except King Jing who was sitting by the bed.
Yuchen jumped up from the bed when she heard Nanny Gui's words, if King Jing hadn't held her down, she might have jumped out of bed. Yuchen sternly said to Nanny Gui: "What nonsense are you talking about? My Xia'er is fine,
Why are you cursing her? "
No matter how cold-blooded a person is, there is her softness. Nanny Gui also watched the two children grow up little by little, and now that Zhou Xia suddenly disappeared, she felt very sad. Seeing that Yuchen, who was brought up since childhood, became delirious because of the death of her child, she couldn't stand it anymore. Nanny Gui cried out, "Mother, the princess is indeed gone, mother, you have to take care of yourself!"
Yuchen shook his head and said: "No, my Xia'er will be fine, I must be dreaming now... yes, I must be dreaming."
King Jing held Yuchen in his arms and said, "Chen'er, don't be like this. The child is gone, we will have it later." On weekdays, Yuchen looked calm and breezy, and this was the first time he saw Yuchen. Chen is so weak and helpless. His heart throbbed with pain.
Yuchen murmured: "It's gone, the child is gone, and I will never come back..." Even if she had a son, it would not be Xia'er anymore. And after this incident, she will not be born again.
At this time, the servant girl outside reported that the emperor urgently summoned King Jing to enter the palace. It was the emperor's personal eunuch who came to summon him, which shows that the matter is very serious.
Jing Wang, who has been working hard all the time, is not very comfortable at this moment. His daughter is gone, his wife is already like this, and he is still allowed to enter the palace to discuss matters. Can't do anything without him.
The visitor whispered, "My lord, it is Eunuch Cai, the personal eunuch next to the emperor."
King Jing didn't want to leave Yuchen at this time, but the emperor's personal eunuchs had come. Obviously, the emperor expected that he might refuse, so he sent his personal eunuchs over.
King Jing stood up and said to Yuchen, "You have a good rest. You don't have to worry about Yan'er. I've already asked Imperial Physician Le to take care of me personally." I want to be buried with the whole family of the Imperial Physician. With the words first, Imperial Physician Le did not dare not to be dedicated.
Yuchen didn't say a word, just looked at King Jing so quietly, seeing King Jing felt uncomfortable, immediately held Yuchen's forehead, and said in a low voice, "I'll be back soon." Don't dare to violate the emperor's will.
King Jing left, and Nanny Gui stayed by Yuchen's side, letting everyone else go down. Nanny Gui squeezed the quilt for Yuchen, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, you must hold on, the princess is gone, and the prince is still here! If there is something wrong with you, the princess, the prince will not be able to stay in the mansion in the future." It’s going to be difficult.” It was also this incident that made Nanny Gui realize clearly that King Jing is not a reliable person. The queen's choice was right.
Yuchen opened his eyes and said, "I won't let Yan'er have anything to do." Her daughter is gone, and she will never let her son be born again.
Thanks to Nanny Gui's excellent mental quality, otherwise, seeing Yuchen like this, she would definitely be scared out of her wits.
Seeing Yuchen with clear eyes, Nanny Gui knew that Yuchen should be pretending just now, and she didn't really lose her mind because of the stimulation: "Ma'am, what should we do now?"
A bloodthirsty gleam flashed in Yuchen's eyes, but he soon regained his composure, and said, "Have you found out who is behind the scenes?" Can let his Xia'er and Yan'er come into contact with smallpox poison under her nose? The people behind this scene are either very powerful, or they hide very deeply. Don't dare to do anything, it will be fatal to both mother and child.
Nanny Gui said, "Mother, I asked Shiqin to investigate." She has been by Yuchen's side for the past few days and has no time to investigate why the two children were infected with smallpox. But before the yard was sealed off, she told Shi Qincha about it. Shiqin is Yuchen's personal servant girl, and she has enough prestige.
Yuchen closed his eyes again, and said, "Then you can ask Shiqin!" The murderers behind the scenes are no more than those few people in the mansion.
When King Jing came out of the palace, he heard Nanny Gui say that it was Mrs. Song who murdered Zhou Yan and Zhou Xia. King Jing stared at Nanny Gui and said, "How could it be Second Aunt? Why did Second Aunt poison Yan'er and Xia'er?"
Nanny Gui knelt on the ground, didn't say anything, just brought the mother-in-law who killed her, and presented physical evidence. Nanny Gui looked at the little clothes on the table, pointed to the old woman and said, "The clothes are stained with dirty things, this old servant has already asked the imperial physician Le to examine them." It's not too difficult to get your clothes dirty.
King Jing kicked the woman in the heart, and said, "Speak? Why did you do this? Why did you kill the prince and the princess?"
The woman was so painful that she almost twitched, but she still kept her mouth shut. That woman was placed by the Song family in King Jing's Mansion. Although she knew that Zhou Yan and Zhou Xia would die if she poisoned her, she had to obey the Song family's orders.
King Jing can become the arm of the emperor, so naturally he will not listen to one side and believe what others say. He quickly asked the housekeeper to thoroughly investigate the matter, and soon found out that it was indeed the second wife of the Song family who poisoned her children, and he had the heart to strangle the second wife of Song to death.
When he arrived at the main courtyard, King Jing shook Yuchen's hand and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely give Xia'er justice." If the uncle was here, he would definitely want Mrs. Song to pay for her life now. But now that the uncle is not here, the Song family is headed by the second uncle. He is now in the Song family, and the second uncle will definitely not hand him over. Instead of making the relationship stalemate and letting the Yu family sneak in, it's better to wait for the uncle to come back and solve it together.
Yuchen lowered his head and remained silent.
Seeing this, King Jing knew that Yuchen had a grudge, but he couldn't help it. Even if he wanted to quarrel with the Song family, the emperor would not allow it.
Hearing King Jing's solution, Nanny Gui frowned, and said to Yuchen, "Mother, just such a fluffy sentence? Did you not do anything else?" The princess is also the biological daughter of the prince. The lord is dead, but the lord is still so calm, it can only prove one thing, the princess doesn't hold much weight in the lord's mind.
Yuchen said with a cold face; "I guessed this result a long time ago..." Although King Jing always said that he loves her, if he really wants to make him do something difficult, he will probably not do it. She said that she wanted King Jing to find the vacancy of the left servant of the Ministry of Officials for her father, but King Jing refused. Because the person who is missing is now fighting with the Yu family and the Song family, and he doesn't want to fight against the Yu family and the Song family.
Nanny Gui asked, "Then what should we do now?" The Princess cannot be killed in vain like this. It's just that if you want to head-to-head, it's tantamount to killing the enemy with a thousand words and injuring eight hundred.
Yuchen said lightly: "The Song family, if there is no mediation by the Queen Mother, how can they be so arrogant?" The Song family actually relies on the Queen Mother and Uncle Song. If these two people are gone, then the Song family can no longer Jumped up. And as far as Yuchen knew, the emperor had always been patient with the Song family, and only dared not touch the Song family for the sake of balance in the court. If the Empress Dowager Song is no longer useful, and Song Guojiu is gone, then the Song family will be finished. Although the Second Master Song is also capable, he is far behind Uncle Song Guo. The second master Song alone cannot support the Song family at all.
If there is anyone Yuchen hates the most right now, it is definitely Song Linger's mother, Mrs. Song Er; the second person she hates is the Queen Mother Song. If the Empress Dowager Song hadn't let Song Linger enter the mansion that day before she married King Jing, and let the Song family and Song Linger plant many nails in the palace, her Xia'er would not have died.
Nanny Gui was very calm, and said, "Your Majesty, capture the king first before capturing the thief. If the Empress Dowager and Uncle Song are safe and sound, the Song family will not be able to move. Otherwise, the Empress will not only not be able to bring down the Song family, but she will put herself in." Nanny Gui knew Yuchen's temperament, and if she didn't have enough reasons to convince her, she would not change her mind. Nanny Gui said, "Mother, if something happens to you, the prince will definitely remarry. At that time, it is unknown whether the son will be an adult." , King Jing will compromise even if he doesn't want to. Nanny Gui used to think that King Jing was a good man, but now she realizes that King Jing might be a good courtier and son, but definitely not a good husband and father.
Yuchen didn't make a sound. In fact, she never thought of bringing down the Song family, because the Song family has become a climate now, even if Uncle Song Guo is gone, the second master of the Song family and his descendants will all grow up. It's not that easy to get over it.
Seeing this, Nanny Gui thought that Yuchen had been moved by her, and said, "Princess, it's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge in ten years." The Song family is now at the height of its power, and it is not ordinary to want to bring down the Song family. difficult.
Yuchen hummed, but thought about it in his heart. If you want revenge, you must join forces with the queen. The queen hated the Queen Mother Song because of Zhou Shen. She definitely can't deal with the Empress Dowager Song alone, but if she is the United Empress...
Thinking of this, Yuchen smiled wryly, even if the queen wanted revenge, she would never join hands with her. This kind of thing, the less one person knows, the less dangerous it is.
Mrs. Song Er got the news and knew that Zhou Xia was gone. She immediately snorted coldly and said, "Mr. Han must know the pain of bereavement now." Ever since her daughter was gone, she never had a peaceful sleep. . Now, she finally let it out. It's a pity that Zhou Yan was fatally ill and survived.
The nurse next to her said: "Ma'am, what if the mother-in-law confesses to Madam, what should I do?" Poisoning the royal heir is a serious crime!
The Second Madam Song stood up and said, "Come on, go into the palace and talk to the Queen Mother." The Second Madam Song knew very well that the Queen Mother hated the two daughters-in-law very much. As long as she yells wrong in front of the queen mother, the queen mother will definitely be on her side. (to be continued)
