Yixiu's Rebirth: Sending Bai Lianhua's Sister to Become a Concubine
Chapter 23: Jianqiu's Heart
"Yes, if Concubine Fujin feels that the last imperial physician is not good enough, we can change another one. Otherwise, we can go to the palace to find out which imperial physician is on duty today?"
Ran Dong also spoke up.
"No need." Yixiu pressed her forehead and waved her hand: "The Fourth Prince has just left for the war, we should keep a low profile, so as not to be accused by those with ulterior motives of being too busy and causing trouble for the Fourth Prince on the battlefield."
After Yixiu said this, everyone had no choice but to check the doors and windows carefully.
There was only one person left, and Yixiu took out a few dishes from her handkerchief, which were exactly the ones that had just been placed on the table.
Before lunch, she had picked up some food from the plate and hid it in her handkerchief.
The meal I just had was just to pretend to be normal so as not to arouse suspicion.
After everyone left, she tried one by one with silver needles, but the silver needles did not turn black. Yixiu frowned. She had tried the pregnancy medicine she drank daily before and found it was non-toxic. If the dishes were not poisonous either, then where did the poison come from?
She looked around at the furnishings in the room. Since the first day after her rebirth, she had ordered people to replace the usual incense with fruits and flowers, in order to prepare for a rainy day and avoid being drugged by others.
When Yixiu is thinking, he always likes to stare at one place.
At this moment, in front of her was a Ru kiln porcelain cup with a blue bottom and ice crack patterns. It was the one she had just used to rinse her mouth. There were fine white lines on it, but there seemed to be two relatively darker lines on the brim of the cup?
Yixiu suddenly thought that in the previous life, Yu Ying'er was instructed by Concubine Hua to smear poison on the edge of the tea lid for Zhen Huan.
Could it be that his elder sister had used a similar method to poison him before?
The water used for gargling will not be ingested, so you may ignore it for a while, but the poison will always remain in the mouth and slowly seep in over a long period of time. Although the effect is slow to show, it is safer.
When I tried the water again, the silver needle had indeed turned black, indicating that someone had tampered with it.
After finding out the problem, Yixiu was relieved.
The symptoms are just beginning to appear now, and even the headache is very mild. Doctor Wen also said that as long as you take good care of yourself, it will not affect your fertility in the near future.
----------
The next step is to find the person who is colluding with Longjing Pavilion.
In the previous life, Jianqiu and Huichun both followed me into the palace and entered the Ministry of Punishment to avenge me. There is no doubt about their loyalty.
Before Yinzhen became emperor, Xiuxia was driven out by him because she told him that being gentle was not good.
Ran Dong offended his stepmother and was punished to the point of having health problems. He had to return home early to recuperate, which was the most regrettable thing.
These four maids were all quite loyal, and each had their own reasons for leaving her.
Then the problem lies with the other maids she brought from the general's mansion and the maids assigned to her from the Fourth Prince's mansion.
In the previous life, Yixiu did not take precautions against Rouze.
She was still young at that time and didn't understand the wickedness of human nature, let alone think that there would be a traitorous maid around her.
She was determined to find this person this time.
Yixiu thought about it and realized that since the maid wanted to poison her, she would definitely not stay in the mansion forever.
That poison will always find a way to flow into the prince's mansion.
Yixiu had already checked the recent records of picking up and buying medicine in the palace, but found nothing.
I think I would be freer in the prince's mansion than in the palace.
It is convenient for the master to go out, and it is also convenient for the servants to go out.
Everyone in the prince's mansion doesn't have to report what they buy, as it has to go through her hands.
It's hard to find out from here.
However, besides Chun, Xia, Qiu and Dong, there were only two people who had the opportunity to poison her teacup.
One was a maid brought from her mother's family, named Honglian. She used to be a maid doing rough work in her courtyard. Later, Yixiu thought she was pretty good, so she promoted her to a maid in charge of tea.
The other was a maid assigned from the Fourth Prince’s mansion, named Zi Su, who was responsible for her food utensils.
Yixiu thought about it for a moment.
Since it is difficult to investigate, let's create an opportunity for that person.
She forbad the servants of Yongkang Pavilion to go out on the grounds that she was not feeling well.
Yixiu called four maids over.
"I am about to give birth. Once the baby is born, this yard will be busy again."
"A few days ago, I was not feeling well, which made everyone nervous. I thought of giving the people serving in the courtyard a few days off so that everyone can relax."
"After that, I'll be busy."
"Ran Dong, Xiu Xia, go and arrange this matter."
"By the way, give each of them some reward money and say it's my reward for their dedicated service to me."
Jian Qiu smiled and said, "The concubine is kind and benevolent. These servants will definitely remember the good things about her."
After the others left, Yixiu kept Jianqiu and Huichun.
"Are there any maids from the capital among the maids in this courtyard?"
Jianqiu thought for a moment and said, "Honglian and Zisu are both from villages near the capital."
Unexpectedly, the suspicion of these two maids became even greater.
Yixiu was used to seeing the methods used by women in the harem to control their servants, so she could naturally guess how the person behind the scenes threatened Honglian and Zisu to do things for them.
The maids from other places have families who live far away from them. Capturing them and threatening them is a big and cumbersome process, and it takes a long time, and there are many uncontrollable variables.
If the maid's family was originally in the capital, then it would be much easier.
Yixiu said, "Someone poisoned my tea set."
Jianqiu and Huichun were surprised and terrified: "Concubine, your child..."
Yixiu felt a little relieved and said, "The child is fine."
"Tomorrow during the day off, follow them and see if they go to buy medicine."
Since Yixiu said so, she must be absolutely sure that it was the two of them.
Jianqiu was anxious and angry, "Concubine, how dare they do this? You treat them well on weekdays, but they are betraying you like this."
"According to your opinion, it is better to kill the wrong person than to let him go. We should just kill them both at once to avoid leaving any trouble behind."
Huichun had never thought that such a horrible thing could happen. She also said, "Whoever dares to harm the concubine like this should be cut into pieces."
Yixiu thought that Jianqiu was good in every way and was very loyal to her.
Sometimes, loyalty is too much and one can’t help but act on one’s own.
The method she proposed is really inappropriate.
Jianqiu also needs to be taught well.
"Whether it's Honglian or Zisu, a slave would never dare to be so bold as to poison someone like this. There must be someone behind her."
"I don't know if it was Rouze or someone else in the Fourth Prince's backyard who ordered them."
"My goal is to find that person so that I can find out who is behind her. Killing her directly would be a waste of time."
Jianqiu was moved when she heard her concubine talking to her so patiently.
"The concubine is indeed far-sighted. I will do my best to serve you."
