Rebirth: Ruyi goes crazy in the harem

Chapter 284: The Calming Incense Conceals the Deathly Aura

Perhaps the north wind from the Mongolian grasslands had already blown away her pride, and Ling Yunche couldn't help but be a little surprised by Hengchu's generosity and gentleness.

However, the best solution for such a thing is for Hengchu to come forward and refuse it.

Ling Yunche did not ask any further questions. He just bowed and thanked the princess for her grace, then left with her sedan chair.

Hengchu's sedan chair stopped outside the Cining Palace soon, and Ling Yunche followed one step behind her, respectfully looking down.

The Queen Mother had been suffering from dizziness more and more frequently recently. When she asked the Imperial Physician Qi about it, he simply said that she was suffering from mental fatigue.

The Queen Mother did not believe it, and summoned other doctors from the Imperial Medical Bureau to examine the patients one by one.

But Doctor Qi was a skilled doctor, and the symptoms he defined were difficult for other doctors, even Jiang Yebi, to refute.

In addition, Doctor Qi has served the emperor for many years and has won the emperor's trust. He has become the most respected head of the Imperial Medical Bureau.

Naturally, no one would have thought that there would be any mistakes in the prescriptions he prescribed or the pulse diagnosis he made.

Fu Jia had just served the empress dowager a bowl of medicine, and was now holding a plate of very finely chopped candied dates, feeding them to the empress dowager one by one.

The figures outside the palace gradually approached, and Hengchu came slowly with the help of a maid. Ling Yunche also stood behind her, kneeling on one knee, observing etiquette.

"My son, please pay your respects to the emperor's mother."

"Your humble servant pays respects to the Queen Mother."

The Queen Mother smiled and looked up when she heard the voice.

At this time, the hall was filled with bright sunlight, and the light formed a circle of golden outline on Hengchu's body, making her face look a little psychedelic and blurred.

Hengchu seemed to say something, and Ling Yunche also echoed him. Their voices seemed to come from the sky, distant and unclear.

The Queen Mother tried hard to open her eyes and lean forward, wanting to see her daughter clearly and hear what they were saying.

A wave of dizziness suddenly came over me.

As the world spun, the empress dowager seemed to see Heng Chu and Ling Yunche standing hand in hand, like a newlywed couple, smiling at each other and then hugging each other.

A feeling of rage like a raging storm spread in my chest.

How dare they do such shameless things in front of her in such a solemn place as the Cining Palace!

The Queen Mother was stunned with shock.

There was a muffled thunder in her mind as if the sky was falling and the earth was splitting apart, which almost gave her a severe headache.

Anger and suspicion intertwined and grew wildly, and the originally clear thoughts were shrouded by a black mist.

The Queen Mother's eyes were strangely fixed, and her thoughts had unconsciously reached an extreme.

Could it be that the two of them had been secretly colluding as early as the time of Junggar?

Could it be that Dawachi was also murdered by the conspiracy of the two?

Could it be that Ling Yunche intentionally got rid of the child in Lian Hengchu's belly because he was worried that it would become an obstacle to the two of them?

The more I think about it, the crazier it gets.

The Empress Dowager's face was three points paler than the snow-white gauze curtain. Her mind was blank and her consciousness gradually became blurred.

Finally, her sick body could not withstand such a sudden blow. The empress dowager let out a sharp howl and then fell straight onto the bed.

Outside the Cining Palace, although there was still a drizzle, the concubines had no time to care about that and stood shoulder to shoulder outside the palace.

From a distance, those colorful umbrellas look like a cluster of colorful fungi, dazzling and difficult to distinguish between the real and the fake.

Standing in the front were Concubine Yu and Concubine Chun, followed by Concubine Hui and Concubine Shu.

Further back, there was a huge crowd. At first glance, it turned out to be the concubines from the six palaces. All of them, regardless of their status, were there.

It seems that something big has really happened in the Cining Palace.

Hailan had been waiting in the rain with a calm expression, but when Ruyi's sedan chair landed, she came over in a panic.

"Sister, the Queen Mother is afraid that something is wrong."

Hailan's eyes flickered slightly. It was not convenient to talk about such things outside the palace.

Ruyi looked at the concubines outside the palace. Although they were holding umbrellas, their clothes were more or less wet. She simply said solemnly,

“The Queen Mother is not feeling well, so it is a good idea for all the concubines to wait outside the palace to show their filial piety.

But if by the time the Queen Mother recovers, you all get caught a cold from the rain, who will be able to serve the Emperor?

Hui Fei, Shu Fei, you two should take them to the side hall and wait. Find some charcoal basin ginger soup to warm your body and get rid of the cold.

Imperial Concubine Yu and Imperial Concubine Chun, please follow me in to take a look. If there is anything, I will let you know later."

Gao Xiyue and Yi Huan bowed slightly, then obediently led the other concubines to the side hall.

Only Wei Yanwan stood out of the queue, her face full of anxiety, "Empress, I have been serving the Queen Mother for many days, and I am really worried about her health.

If it is because of my poor service that the Queen Mother is harmed...I will be held responsible for this."

Ruyi's eyes were cold and clear, which made Wei Yanwan feel guilty for a moment.

Ruyi sighed meaningfully, "Your Highness is thoughtful. But if everyone wants to visit the Queen Mother in person on the pretext of filial piety, it will inevitably disturb the Queen Mother's rest.

Just wait patiently. If you can do your job well, nothing will happen to you."

After being refuted by Ruyi, Wei Yanwan couldn't hide the embarrassment on her face.

Following the other concubines to the side hall, Xing'er put the hot ginger soup into Wei Yanwan's hands.

At this moment, Wei Yanwan had no intention of drinking the soup, but was thinking about what Ruyi had just said.

Suddenly, Wei Yanwan felt her hands and feet go cold, and her pupils dilated unconsciously.

What did Ruyi mean by that just now? Could it be that she knew something?

Xing'er noticed Wei Yanwan's slightly trembling hands, and hurriedly took the ginger soup, put it aside, then knelt in front of Wei Yanwan and carefully wiped her hands.

Wei Yanwan said in a voice as soft as a mosquito, "Xing'er, will the mushrooms...will they..."

Xing'er tightened Wei Yanwan's hand and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Don't worry, Master.

Miss Chunchan said that once you have a good night's sleep, you won't be able to feel the effects of the wild mushroom.

Moreover, the Queen Mother's convulsions were probably caused by other reasons. The wild mushrooms could only be a contributing factor at most and would not be so easily fatal.

Even Chunchan's aunt died after accidentally eating wild mushrooms, which caused her to have hallucinations and she fell off a cliff.

It is difficult for the imperial doctors to find out anything about this kind of thing even if they wanted to.

I have followed your instructions and have been careful at all times. I have dealt with all the wild mushrooms. No matter what, it will not affect the master."

Wei Yanwan then breathed a sigh of relief, but wrinkles still appeared between her brows, revealing her inner tension and anxiety.

In the center of the hall, a crane incense burner was burning with a scent of tranquilizing medicine. In the lonely atmosphere filled with fragrance, Ruyi inexplicably smelled a faint smell of death.

Behind the curtains, Hengchui was sitting beside the bed, looking worriedly at the empress dowager who was sleeping soundly under the layers of brocade quilt.

Seeing Ruyi coming, Hengchu wiped away the tears from her eyes with a handkerchief, walked out of the curtain lightly, and then bowed and said, "Greetings to the Emperor's sister-in-law."
