The Rebirth Of The General Who Always Sees Himself As A Replacement - Chapter 136
Since it was a sickness, the food and lodging were all in the Meditation Hall. The imperial concubine guarded the emperor, stared at everything, and checked for poison everywhere. The next day, it was time to feed the soup and medicine. In the soup, it was fed to the emperor.
But she just put the pills into the medicine bowl, the door of the inner hall was suddenly pushed open, the empress led people in, and scolded angrily: “Bold slut, actually poisoned the emperor! Come on, arrest her for me. stand up.”
The noble concubine guarded the medicine bowl, and was not afraid of danger: “Let’s be presumptuous, who dares to touch me!”
The queen pointed to the medicine bowl in her hand: “You get what you get, what else do you have to justify?”
The noble concubine said calmly: “Empress Empress, now that the emperor is seriously ill on the couch, and the inner hall needs to be cleaned, do you really want to argue with me here?”
The queen snorted coldly: “Well, let’s go to the outer hall.”
In a short time, the matter was completely escalating. When Concubine Xian heard the news, she immediately went to Baohua Palace to invite the Queen Mother to call the shots.
So, in the outer hall of the Meditation Hall, the queen mother sat in the main seat, the queen sat in the sub-seat, and the concubines of the sixth palace sat in the order of honor and inferiority.
The Empress Dowager was holding a Buddha bead, full of hair, and dignified manner. She looked around and asked, “The emperor is seriously ill now, but you are so troublesome, what kind of decency? What happened?”
The queen stood up and saluted, and told the queen mother that the palace maid saw the imperial concubine putting medicine in the emperor’s bowl.
The queen mother looked at the imperial concubine and asked sharply, “Is there really such a thing?”
The noble concubine stood up, walked to the table and respectfully saluted the queen mother. After the ceremony, she stood still, and she said, “This is indeed the case.”
For a time, the audience was in an uproar.
The queen mother was shocked: “What?!”
Immediately the next second, the imperial concubine held up the medicine bowl and drank half of the medicine without hesitation. She drank it and said, “The Queen Mother, try the medicine with my own body, I am not poisoning.”
Her actions were truly shocking.
The queen stood up and shouted anxiously: “Mu Qingwan, are you crazy? Taking the emperor’s medicine without authorization is an unforgivable crime, come here! Drag her to the cold palace and lock her up!”
“Wait.” The queen mother raised her hand to silence everyone, then looked at the imperial concubine, “What’s going on? Make it clear.”
The imperial concubine said: “Back to the Queen Mother’s words, the emperor is not sick, but poisoned. What the concubine added to the bowl is an antidote.”
“What?! Poisoning!” the queen mother shouted, all the concubines in the outer hall were terrified when they heard the words, the queen’s body swayed, and she barely stabilized her figure with the chair in her hand.
The imperial concubine knelt down: “If the empress dowager doesn’t believe it, you can call the imperial physician from the Imperial Physician’s Office to ask questions.”
Empress Dowager: “Go and call the imperial doctor!”
Not long after, Dr. Kuang hurried to the Jingxin Hall, knelt down and saluted: “If you go back to the Queen Mother, the emperor is indeed poisoned.”
Empress Dowager: “Why didn’t you say something so important earlier!!!”
Dr. Kuang kowtowed: “The minister’s crime deserves ten thousand death. It’s the minister’s stupidity. It was only yesterday that he found out that the emperor was poisoned. As soon as the minister found out, he immediately informed the concubine, the concubine who served the illness, to trouble the emperor to give the emperor an antidote.”
Empress Dowager: “If you can cure the emperor, you can spare your life. If you can’t cure it, ask the death penalty.”
Doctor Kuang continued to kowtow: “Yes yes yes.”
The queen’s face was pale, and she realized that something was wrong.
With such a cautious character as the imperial concubine, how could the palace maid easily find out that she poured medicine into the bowl!
At the end of the matter, everyone in the Hall of Mental Cultivation was in danger. All items and food close to the emperor’s body were tested for poison, and none of them were leaked. The investigation of the poisoned person started immediately.
After leaving the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Concubine De and Concubine Xian returned together. Concubine De had a lingering fear in her heart: “Today’s troubles are so big. Fortunately, the Queen Mother is in charge of the situation.
“Is it difficult to protect myself?” Concubine Xian sneered, “You are too stupid, why do you think I would invite the Queen Mother to the Hall of Mental Cultivation?”
De Concubine: “Huh?”
Concubine Xian lowered her voice: “I was asked to do this by the concubine’s sister. She wants to make this matter bigger, the bigger the better, and everyone will know it. Only in this way, the queen can’t speak a word! The queen is anxious to take hold of her. I want everyone to know that she was involved in the emperor’s medicine, how could everyone know that the emperor was poisoned, otherwise the queen is in charge of the six palaces on weekdays, and how can the concubine and sister be against her? .”
Concubine De: “Oh my God, I can’t see that the concubine’s sister is such a scheming person.”
Concubine Xian sighed: “There are some people who just don’t fight on weekdays. If she fights, no one can give her three points.”
