Just as Gu Qingqiu thought, the Empress Dowager is looking for a candidate for Chu Yunyi's side concubine Luo.
As a prince, it would be too deserted to have only one concubine and Fengyi, but after a long time of discussion, only the daughters of officials of the fourth and fifth ranks are willing. never appeared.
The queen mother was so angry that she sent someone to inquire, and it turned out that there were rumors outside the palace again. In the eyes of everyone, Chu Yunyi became an incompetent man, and everyone speculated that Chu Yunyi might only have this one child. .
Small officials and small households don't care about whether their daughters can give birth to the emperor's grandson. They only want to let their daughter marry the prince. From now on, they will help the family.
But what the big family wants is to be able to continue the glory of the family. It is absolutely impossible for the daughter-in-law they have carefully cultivated to marry an inhumane man, not even the prince.
The queen mother is also from a big family, so she naturally understands what these big families think, the more she understands, the angrier she gets.
As soon as she got angry, she wanted to vent her anger on Gu Qingqiu.
"Where's Gu Qingqiu? Why hasn't he come yet?"
Ever since Gu Qingqiu was confinement, she came to serve her every day, she watched Gu Qingqiu pretending to be filial, but remained unmoved.
How can a woman who has no family support and has humiliated her grandson be worthy of being a princess?If it wasn't for not finding a suitable candidate, she would have deprived Gu Qingqiu of her title of princess long ago.
Just as Qing Gu was about to speak, she saw Gu Qingqiu walking over from the corner of her eye.
"Your Majesty, the Crown Princess is here."
"All blessings to the imperial grandmother."
Standing in the center of the hall, Gu Qingqiu bowed respectfully to the Queen Mother, the smiles and movements on his face were all unmistakable.
However, the Empress Dowager hated her so much, not only did she not feel relieved when she saw her posture, but felt that she used to put on a show.
"The Ai family said, your family is not well educated, and you can't bring up a successful son." The queen mother said impatiently, "The Ai family also doesn't want Cheng'er to know that his biological mother is a woman with a heart like a snake, even if you come to serve the Ai family regardless of the weather , the Ai family will never let you meet your son."
Hearing this, Gu Qingqiu's eyes turned red, and tears welled up in his eyes.
"Grandmother, I don't want to see Cheng'er, I just want to honor you on behalf of His Highness." Gu Qingqiu lowered his head, hiding all his grievances, "Your Highness is busy with work, so I can't come to see you for a long time. I am a woman. I can't do any great things, I can only honor you on behalf of your highness."
"Today I brought the chicken soup I made myself, if you don't mind..."
"Qinggu." The Empress Dowager said impatiently, "Put down the chicken soup, mourning the family and worshiping the Buddha for many days, and there is no smell of meat."
When Gu Qingqiu heard this, she lowered her head even more, and her fingers were trembling because of her grievance.
Seeing this scene, the empress dowager's eyes became more and more disdainful.
I really don't know how a woman like Gu Qingqiu seduced Chu Yunyi so much that he wanted to be with her even if he divorced Gu Ning.
Gu Qingqiu's eyes were full of hatred, seeing the empress dowager's disdain and disdain, she wished she could tear this old woman to pieces!
But for her success!She had to keep low and be small!
She has no family to rely on, no husband to favor, all she can have is her grown-up son!
Gu Qingqiu kept his head down all the time, even though the Queen Mother spoke harshly, he never left.
It wasn't until noon that the Queen Mother had enough scolding and was out of breath, so she waved Gu Qingqiu to leave.
The moment Gu Qingqiu walked out of the main hall, he saw Ban Xia walking over in a panic.
"In the empress dowager's palace, restrain yourself!"
Ban Xia's body was still trembling, listening to Gu Qingqiu's words, her eyes were calm for a moment, but soon became flustered again.
"As you ordered, the servant has...already put the medicine in the food of the little Huangsun's nanny, and the little Huangsun should be able to develop acne tonight."
When Ban Xia said this, a heart almost jumped out of her throat.
"The little emperor's grandson has not yet reached a hundred days, will doing so hurt his body?"
"It will just make him suffer from a rash for a few days." Gu Qingqiu said lightly, "If you don't do this, how will His Highness know the incompetence of the Empress Dowager? The mattress used by the smallpox patient can be placed in the Empress Dowager's bedroom ?”
"It's all put away." Banxia whispered, "Qinggu is the person most trusted by the queen mother, and no one will doubt the things she handles."
Ban Xia didn't expect that Qing Gu could be bought by Gu Qingqiu.
Seeing her surprised eyes, Gu Qingqiu smiled with satisfaction: "The Queen Mother threatened her with Qinggu's family and did many things. The Queen Mother is so high above her, so naturally she didn't expect that Qinggu already held a grudge against her, and she used it to manipulate Qinggu. It can also be my way to deal with Qinggu."
"I have already promised Qinggu, as long as she completes this matter for me, I will send her out of the palace and let their family reunite."
When Ban Xia heard the words, he suddenly realized: "So that's how it is."
Gu Qingqiu thought about his plan carefully and was very satisfied.
Naturally, she would not be so stupid as to attack her own son. The symptoms looked like smallpox, but they were actually just ordinary rashes, which would not be life-threatening.
But dealing with the Queen Mother is different. It is the mattress that a real smallpox patient slept on. It is placed close to the Queen Mother. As long as the Queen Mother comes into contact with it, it will definitely make her suffer from smallpox. Her biological mother is more suitable for raising children?
Thinking of this, Gu Qingqiu laughed happily.
……
"Why are you here again?"
Doctor Zhou looked at Gu Ning who was picking and choosing in the yard, and clapped his hands in disgust.
Some time ago, every time Gu Ning came to him, he would definitely not return empty-handed. Every time he took the poison he had prepared with great difficulty.
In addition, she also made a bunch of weird requests, asking him to prepare similar poisons for her, which made Dr. Zhou painful and happy.
The pain is because Gu Ning wiped out all the poisons he developed with great difficulty, and the happiness is because Gu Ning's wonderful ideas make him more proficient in using poison.
Seeing Doctor Zhou's half-disgusting and half-anticipating gaze, Gu Ning handed something to him with a smile.
Seeing this thing, Dr. Zhou's eyes burst into dazzling brilliance: "This is... Spiritual Cleansing Grass!"
Xilingcao is a medicinal herb that is only recorded in the Pharmacopoeia. Its name sounds good, but it is a poisonous medicinal herb. If a person gets a little bit of it, even if he does not enter it, he will be poisoned to death.
Thinking of this, Doctor Zhou immediately withdrew his outstretched hand, as if watching some spectacle, looked at Gu Ning curiously: "Are you all right?"
Hearing this, Gu Ning put his hand in front of Dr. Zhou with a smile and waved: "I brought gut gloves."
"What is this?" Dr. Zhou was more curious about the gut gloves than the spirit-washing grass. Seeing that Gu Ning's hands were wrapped in a thin but transparent layer, he knew that these were the gloves Gu Ning was talking about.
"Chunyu, bring me the gift I prepared for Doctor Zhou!" Gu Ning called out, and Chunyu immediately came over with a wooden box.
What is contained in this wooden box are the sheep intestine gloves that Dr. Zhou is very curious about.
Gu Ning explained: "I asked the craftsman to make this specially for you. You come into contact with so many medicinal materials every day. What if some of them are like this spirit-washing grass, and you will be poisoned when you touch them? With this glove, you You don’t have to worry about it anymore.”
"This is a good thing." Doctor Zhou nodded, and accepted the gift from Gu Ning very naturally, "It seems that you girl has no conscience at all."
"Of course!" Gu Ning said loudly, "Doctor Zhou is so kind to me, of course I want to reciprocate, I will think about you more."
As he said that, Gu Ning took the initiative to put the spirit washing grass on the table.
Dr. Zhou narrowed his eyes, looked at Gu Ning's body, sneered and said, "Tell me, what do you want to ask me for today? It seems that for the sake of washing the spirit grass and this gift, I can help you." just help."
"I want you to take another look for Xie Yan." Gu Ning whispered, "I'm a little worried."
Hearing this, Dr. Zhou's eyes widened: "Didn't you see it before?"
"I'm not worried!" Gu Ning took Dr. Zhou's hand and shook it lightly, "Doctor Zhou, you can treat him as a pulse checker!"
"It's not that I don't help, it's that Mr. Xie... Tsk tsk!" Dr. Zhou sighed, "He's not easy to get along with, didn't you see the look in his eyes when I checked his pulse last time? You want to eat me!"
Gu Ning froze: "Don't worry, with me by his side, he will never dare to show his face to you!"
Dr. Zhou stroked his beard meaningfully, and said with a smile: "It seems that Mr. Xie is afraid of guilt..."
Gu Ning just pretended not to hear his words: "Doctor Zhou, choosing a day is worse than hitting the sun, let's go and show him today."
Seeing Gu Ning's hurried appearance, Doctor Zhou was quite curious.
Looking at it this way, Gu Ning seems to be sure that someone poisoned Xie Yan. Where did she get the news from?
But before he could think about it, Gu Ning had already pulled his arm and walked out.
Doctor Zhou came to the door and stopped suddenly.
"Ouch! My medicine chest!"
……
The Xie mansion was very quiet, all the guests who came to visit were blocked by the guards with knives.
Although the Xie Mansion is next door, in order to avoid people's eyes and ears and not arouse the emperor's suspicion, the two families have not walked around for a long time. When this place came to Xie Mansion, Gu Ning naturally did not take the usual route.
With Chunyu's support, she climbed over the wall first.
Seeing this, Dr. Zhou sighed faintly: "I have practiced medicine for decades, but I have never climbed a wall."
"It's just climbing." Gu Ning seemed not to understand what he meant, and smiled innocently at him, "Doctor Zhou, don't worry, Chunyu's hand is very steady."
Dr. Zhou rolled his eyes forcefully, and before Chunyu could help him, he jumped up and jumped directly onto the wall.
"You...you..." Gu Ning blinked blankly, "You know martial arts..."
"Of course." Doctor Zhou shook his head, "How can you not have the time to walk around in the rivers and lakes?"
Gu Ning swallowed those words back, thinking aggrievedly, it turns out that I am a waste...
In the study, Yue Rong and Yue Ming had a fierce quarrel.
"It's not yet time to act. If the troops of Shu land are mobilized at this time, the emperor will definitely be suspicious."
"The emperor is not long to live, if you don't do something now, when will you wait?"
The two fought on their own, arguing very fiercely, but when they sensed that someone was approaching, the two immediately shut their mouths, looked out the door vigilantly, and put their hands on the handle of the knife.
The door was kicked open, and Dr. Zhou walked in swaggeringly.
Xie Yan's cold eyes just swept across him, but when he saw Gu Ning behind him, his eyes became gentle again in an instant.
"Hmph!" Dr. Zhou glanced at him disdainfully, a guy who fears guilt.
Yue Rong and Yue Ming were even dog legs, and hurriedly moved the stool in front of Gu Ning: "County Lord, sit down."
Dr. Zhou coughed: "This old man came to see Mr. Xie. Is this how you treat this genius doctor?"
Gu Ning, who was about to sit down, quickly got up and moved the stool in front of Doctor Zhou: "Doctor Zhou, sit down first."
Dr. Zhou sat down and raised his chin at Xie Yan: "It was the county magistrate who came to the door several times to invite me to move the old man. Mr. Xie still needs to cooperate and stretch out his hand quickly."
"I'm a little worried about you." Gu Ning's brows were full of concern for Xie Yan, "I wanted to ask Dr. Zhou to give you a safe pulse."
So, in front of the arrogant Doctor Zhou, Xie Yan did not hit his arrogance for the first time, but stretched out his hand obediently.
As soon as Dr. Zhou put his hand on it, he took a deep breath.
As a prince, it would be too deserted to have only one concubine and Fengyi, but after a long time of discussion, only the daughters of officials of the fourth and fifth ranks are willing. never appeared.
