Her Highness Doesn’t Want to Work Hard Anymore
Chapter 662: Everything Goes Well
After Concubine Zhen left, Hua Manman was the only one left in the house.
It was already late at this time, but she didn't feel sleepy, her mind was full of what Concubine Zhen said just now.
The more she thought about it, the more uneasy she felt, and she always felt that something bad was going to happen.
Just at this moment, a familiar meow sounded outside the window.
Hua Manman immediately ran over, leaned on the window and called out.
"Tongzi."
The cat meow sounded again, and after reaching Hua Manman's ears, it automatically switched to the system's words.
"Manman, are you okay?"
Hua Manman said in a low voice: "I'm fine, can you help me with something now?"
System: "You say."
Hua Manman: "I suspect that Hua Qingqing is going to make a big deal. Go and help me keep an eye on her and see what she is going to do?"
The system says it's ok.
It can change into any shape, it is difficult for human beings to guard against it, and it is easy for it to inquire about news.
It quietly lurks beside Concubine Zhen, watching her every move.
At first it didn't notice anything unusual, until five days later, it saw Zhen Guifei received a secret letter.
It turned into a bat and hung upside down on the beam, clearly seeing the contents of the secret letter.
There are only four words on the letter paper——
all the best.
The system informed Hua Manman of this matter.
Hua Manman: "She really is planning something in the dark, can you find out where the secret letter came from?"
The system says it's difficult.
Concubine Zhen did everything seamlessly. After reading the letter, she immediately burned it to ashes.
As for the messengers, they were also carefully selected by her, they were honest and reliable, and they would never reveal a word.
Unwilling to give up, Huaman asked.
"Tell me about Hua Qingqing's specific itinerary for the past few days. What does she do every day? Who has she met? Tell me everything, the more detailed the better."
The system said everything it saw and heard.
Concubine Zhen's life is very simple. She spends most of her time in Yufu Palace, or with her second younger sister, or making spices.
In addition, she would go to greet the queen mother every day, and serve the emperor to drink medicine.
Hua Manman: "Did she feed the emperor the medicine herself?"
System: "It's not necessarily true, sometimes she feeds it herself, and sometimes it's the eunuch next to the emperor, she just watches."
Hua Manman boldly guessed: "Will she put poison in the medicine?"
System: "It should be impossible.
The emperor has a little eunuch who specializes in testing medicines.
Every time before the emperor drank the medicine, he had to scoop out a small portion of the soup and give it to the little eunuch to try.
After confirming that there is no problem with the decoction, the emperor will be allowed to drink it. "
The emperor has always been cautious, especially after he was paralyzed, he became more cautious.
No matter eating or drinking, as long as it goes into his mouth, it must be tasted by others first.
Hua Manman rubbed his chin: "If it's not poisoning, then what is it?"
System: "Do you think Hua Qingqing is going to murder the emperor? She can't be that brave, right?"
Hua Manman: "If it was Hua Qingqing in the past, she really wouldn't be able to do this kind of thing, but the current Concubine Zhen, maybe she really can't."
Today's Hua Qingqing has already completely transformed from a little white flower into a black heart lotus.
If she wants to achieve her goal, she can do whatever it takes.
System: "What good does the emperor's death do to her? Don't forget that she can gain a firm foothold in the palace because of the emperor's favor and trust in her."
Hua Manman: "It's very simple. If the emperor is alive, she can only be a noble concubine, but if the emperor is dead, she can be the empress dowager. If it is you, which one do you choose?"
No matter how noble the imperial concubine is, she is just a concubine, or a concubine to put it bluntly.
But if she becomes the empress dowager, she will be the most honorable woman in the whole world except the empress dowager.
The gap between the two is like the difference between clouds and mud.
The system is still somewhat suspicious.
"Isn't there an old saying among you human beings, is it called a one-night couple and a hundred days of kindness? The emperor is her husband, she can't be so cruel, right?"
Hua Manman: "We humans still have a saying that a husband and wife are originally birds in the same forest, and they fly separately when disaster strikes."
The system is speechless.
...
After breakfast, Concubine Zhen went to pay her respects to the Empress Dowager as usual.
The Queen Mother looked very haggard.
Even with a thick layer of makeup on her face, she couldn't hide her exhaustion.
She rubbed her forehead and frowned.
"The emperor's physical condition has been getting worse and worse these days. Those wastes in the hospital, what to eat? It's useless at all."
Concubine Zhen also had a sad face: "I am very disturbed physically and mentally. I can't eat well or sleep well these few days. Every time I think of the saint's illness, I feel extremely uncomfortable."
Speaking of this, she couldn't help but her eyes turned red, and her voice became choked up.
She was born extremely beautiful, and now she showed such a delicate and pitiful expression, even the Queen Mother couldn't help but feel a little soft-hearted.
The queen mother sighed: "Your affection for the emperor is known to the Ai family. Don't be too sad, lest you lose your body in a hurry. The emperor is still waiting for you to take care of it."
Concubine Zhen wiped the corners of her eyes with a silk handkerchief, and said in a trembling voice.
"The concubine will go to Hanzhang Hall to serve the saint with medicine."
The queen mother thought for a while, and said: "It happens that Ai's family hasn't seen the emperor for two days, and Ai's family will go to see him with you today."
Concubine Zhen quickly responded, "Here."
The two drove away from Biquan Palace and went to Hanzhang Hall in a chariot.
As soon as I walked into the bedroom, there was a strong smell of medicine.
Two imperial physicians are treating the emperor.
When they saw the Queen Mother and Concubine Zhen coming, they hurriedly bowed their hands in salute.
The queen mother looked at her sickly son and felt very distressed.
She first held the emperor's hand to comfort her, then turned her head and waited for the two imperial physicians, asking coldly.
"Didn't you say before that the emperor's condition will gradually improve? Why is his condition not only not improving, but getting worse?"
The two imperial physicians broke out in a cold sweat when they were asked.
They hurriedly opened their mouths to explain, saying a lot of professional terms.
The queen mother didn't understand a word, and her expression became more and more ugly.
she interrupted impatiently.
"Don't talk nonsense to Ai's family. As long as you have a word from Ai's family, can the emperor's condition be cured?"
How dare the imperial doctors say a word?
If they really say that it can't be cured, Xiao Ming has to explain here.
They could only bite the bullet and say.
"The next official will definitely do his best to cure the saint's illness!"
The queen mother said in a deep voice: "The Ai family will give you three days in the end. If the emperor's condition has not improved, the Ai family will take off your official hats and let you spend the rest of your life in prison!"
The two imperial physicians complained incessantly, they still haven't figured out why the emperor's condition worsened? How could the emperor's condition improve within three days? !
But they didn't dare to say anything, they could only kneel on the ground and answer honestly.
"Here!"
