The correct way to open the first favorite concubine of Ming Dynasty

Ever since Zhu Heidan performed the coronation ceremony, my mood was like a cloudy gauze, and I was vaguely irritable.

My rival(s) are already on their way.As long as the emperor gives an order to choose concubines for the emperor's grandson, they will spring up from the backyard of the East Palace like mushrooms after a spring rain, threatening me.

What's even more exasperating is that their existence is legal.

Naturally, I can't show my irritability in front of the prince and concubine. Although Zhu Heidan sensed it a little bit, he still couldn't understand it. Instead, he asked me several times in a subtle and tactful manner: "Daughter-in-law, have you recently... Irregular menstruation? Don’t want me to ask a doctor to take a look?”

You know a lot.You just have irregular menstruation...

Since the establishment of the emperor's grandson, Heidan calls me Ruowei when there are others around, and secretly calls me "daughter-in-law" when there is no one around.

The cry of "daughter-in-law" aroused my troubles even more.

"Go out, go out, I'm in a bad mood, I'm going to bed and recuperate, don't bother me."

"Who made you angry, tell me I'll teach him a lesson." Zhu Heidan, who was the instigator but had no self-knowledge, refused to leave no matter how reluctantly he was pushed out. After half an hour, he left when it was too late. Lost and gave me a sad look.

Hey, we two, who is the bitter wife?

Heidan left, and Xiaolian came in to help me wash and change my clothes.

I asked: "Xiao Lian, in our East Palace, is there any court lady or official whose surname is Hu or Wu?" In modern times, I heard that the main rivals in love were these two.One once robbed me of the queen's throne, and the other once robbed my son of the emperor's throne.

Xiao Lian thought for a while, and said: "Except for Madam Wu who is serving the princess, other slaves don't remember who is surnamed Hu or Wu. Why is the girl asking this? If necessary, I will help the girl to find out at dawn tomorrow." inquire about."

"Ah, no need. I'm just here to ask. When I was young, a fortune teller said that I had conflicts with women with these two surnames."

Grandma Wu is over 40 years old this year, older than the princess, even if Zhu Heidan really tastes so strong, Grandma Wu will not be able to give birth to Zhu Qiyu when she is older.

Rivals of love, rivals of love, where are you guys... I want them to appear again, so that I can have a countermeasure earlier; Don't appear in my life with Heidan.

I'm annoyed here, but after a few days, Heidan also started to be irritable.

Could it be that he also has "irregular menstruation"?

In the first month of the lunar year, it was freezing cold, and heavy snow was flying outside the window. One night, Heidan came back from nowhere, pushed open the door of my room, and for a while, the wind wrapped snowflakes poured into the room, dancing all over the sky.

I brushed the snow off his coat and asked for hot tea.

"During the first lunar month, where did you go?"

Heitan took the tea and pouted, all the court ladies and eunuchs withdrew.

"The Changling Mausoleum will be built almost next year. At that time, the coffin of Grandma Huang will be moved to Beiping. I want to take advantage of the loopholes and ask someone to conduct a secret autopsy. But now even the death of Concubine Quan Xian has not been found out. It has been a year. I just went to see the person sent by Zhou Xin, and he said that I can’t contact Zhou Xin recently. You said, if a dignified Zhejiang procurator can’t just sit in the Yamen, where can he go?”

I gave him the hand stove in my arms, and he pushed me to carry it by myself.

"I heard that Mr. Zhou is used to investigating cases by means of private visits in micro-services. Maybe he is busy investigating some cases now. There are so many cases in Zhejiang that he investigates. You can't let him take the people's money to investigate the royal case. There are hundreds of thousands of cases left there, don’t you think?”

Zhu Heidan has one advantage, that is, he listens to advice.Moreover, he knew in his heart that state affairs and civil affairs were the most important, and he would not put on the airs of the heavenly family to be domineering.

The anger subsided.I took a can of walnuts and cracked walnut kernels with him to nourish our brains.Ask him: "How is the case of Concubine Xian going?"

"Ji Gang of Jin Yiwei told the grandfather that the concubine Xian was poisoned by arsenic/shuang. What Yang Rong meant was that it was not like that. If it was poisoned by arsenic/shuang, there would be abdominal pain, vomiting, and bloody diarrhea, but the concubine Xian's symptoms were not the same. No. And at that time, I lived with the emperor's grandfather, and the food and drink were tested for poison by the eunuch."

"When Concubine Xian passed away... what was it like?"

"According to Yang Rong's inquiry, when he got sick, he suffered from muscle weakness, blurred vision, collapse, and occasionally vomited, and later he said he couldn't breathe, and then he became more and more difficult to breathe, and he was severely constipated. Lao Gao. It took only two days and two nights before he died."

Such a death is really too tragic.I tentatively asked: "Is it the same for the empress back then?"

"Yes……"

I put my hand together with the hand stove warmly into Heitan's hand, and Heidan embraced me, gently stroking my fingers and the lines on the copper stove, thinking of something.

I asked again: "Did Zhou Xin find anything in the past year or so?"

"Zhou Xin preliminarily infers that there may be three groups of people who wanted to kill her at the same time. I don't know which group succeeded first, but each of these three groups has left a clue in the hands of others. Details will wait until he comes to Beijing to see her in a fair manner. , choose the opportunity to report."

In other words, there are three groups of murderers who are at large, hiding in the dark, and may kill again at any time.

The sound of snowflakes hitting the window lattice outside was extremely loud and chilly, and I shivered. I was so frightened by the shady scenes that I almost shrank into Heidan's arms.

"Don't be afraid," he said with a smile, "don't be afraid. Who told me that the palace was 'interesting'?"

I made a bitter face: "You are interesting, but they are not, so boring. Is it too late for me to regret it now?"

Heidan laughed happily and hugged my shoulder tightly.

Still want to laugh.Life is at stake, my grandson.

bother.My worries are not over yet, and Heidan's worries won't be over for a while.Two troublesome things weighed on my frail shoulders at the same time, and I even had the heart to travel back to modern times.

But when I think about traveling back to modern times, I will be a lonely, lonely, single dog, with no one around me who can recite poetry, and there are black eggs here, so I will bear it no longer.

In addition to helping the princess as a female celebrity and watching the children go to relatives, I have another learning task: studying medical books.

One is to help Heidan investigate the case, and the other is to save his life.In case one day you are poisoned, don't even know what kind of poison you have been poisoned.

Heidan comforted me at first, saying, "Mother concubine controls the East Palace as tightly as an iron bucket, don't be afraid", but I said, "Emperor's favorite concubine can be murdered, and she is the one who is temporarily in charge of the harem." After that, shut up obediently and read medical books with me.

I have to say that Heidan's brain is smarter than mine.

Although I am very smart and can read ten lines at a glance, Heidan's intelligence is that after reading ten lines at a glance, I can understand them all, memorize them and combine them with old knowledge.Studying with Heidan, I have a deep sense of powerlessness that Xueba feels when facing Xueshen.

It took me a day to read the book, but Heidan finished it in an hour, and he still remembers it more solidly than me.It caused me to deeply doubt life: what is the meaning of my hard study for a day?

So I gave up medical books and handed over reading to those who are good at it. Instead, I began to explore the interpersonal network of Concubine Quan in the palace during her lifetime.

Taking advantage of the opportunity to visit everywhere with the princess, he secretly searched and found something.
