The Beloved Imperial Consort - Chapter 154
[154. Chapter 154 Hope]
Mu Xiyao got jealous for a long time in the farmhouse, and turned back to Danruo Garden with a sullen face. Zong Zhenglin settled the people and turned around to go to Chan Ruo Garden.
“If you clean up, you will leave the house.” Helian Minmin dressed as an ordinary young lady. Instead of being a prince and concubine, she was more beautiful. Seeing that she was decent, Zong Zhenglin asked Tian Fushan to arrange the frame.
The two took their seats at the Mahogany Eight Immortals table, holding tea cups and waiting quietly. Helian Minmin still had a fresh memory of the previous conversation, thinking that His Highness the Sixth Highness was willing to keep her, a woman who might not be useful, in the manor, occupying such an honorable position, and she was so grateful that she didn’t know how to express her gratitude.
Helian Minmin couldn’t understand why His Royal Highness was particularly determined on this matter. When it comes to the love between husband and wife, you can’t even deceive yourself.
On weekdays, His Royal Highness’s attitude is just a little respect, but there is almost no closeness. Until this incident, even the Helian family had made up their minds to abandon her, and only His Highness was willing to keep her behind. No matter what the motives were, Helian Min was sensitive to his kindness. Even if His Highness asked her to take care of the woman in Danruo Garden when necessary, this matter would be more beneficial to her than detrimental.
“Monday and Tuesday”? To put it more clearly, it is to cover up the Mu family’s special favor in the prince’s mansion. In it, she helped round the story, and the reputation she gained not only fulfilled her wife, concubine, and beauty, but also showed that she was well-mannered; it also allowed outsiders to know that His Highness’s affection for her, the concubine, was still there.
Thinking of getting the exact news today and finding out what happened to her body, it was hard for Helian Minmin to keep calm. If she can find out, the person who harmed her will definitely leave clues for tracing.
“Let’s go.” Seeing Ye Kai driving over, Zong Zhenglin got up first and deliberately got out of the carriage. After he was satisfied, he helped Helian to get into the carriage, and then followed the curtain.
“Ye Kai, Honglou.”
Helian Minmin was about to move a place for Zong Zhenglin, and when he heard the order in his mouth, he raised his head in shock, with a look of disbelief.
Red House? Helian Minmin’s expression was a little unnatural.
How could His Royal Highness drill into the brothel Chu Pavilion, which no one in Shengjing knew about? She also brought her the prince concubine together. Helian Minmin resisted such an indecent thing.
“The person who sees the doctor for you lives in the red building.” Seeing Helian’s expression change awkwardly, Zong Zhenglin explained a little.
Helian’s reaction was like a young lady raised by an aristocratic family. In contrast, Mu Xiyao’s eyes shone brightly when she heard the Red Mansion, and Zong Zhenglin really didn’t know how to explain her excitement.
A well-behaved woman like Yu’s, and Mu Da’s is a gentleman with strict dogma. How could she have brought up Mu Xiyao, a girl who has countless hearts and minds, and does not abide by stereotypes at all?
Zong Zhenglin pondered the many strange things about the little woman with great interest, but Helian Minmin felt a little embarrassed.
How can you think of His Highness so badly? Among the princes, the Sixth Highness is a rare person of integrity and self-discipline, and he is not the kind of person who seeks pleasure. Otherwise, it would not be the Mu family’s turn to be the dominant family, and the scenery in the mansion would be infinite. There are singers in ordinary families who are pitiful, but in the mansion of the Sixth Prince, there is not a single figure in sight. With great difficulty, two dancers were sent from another family, and they were killed by Mu Xiyao in three or two ways.
The two were thinking about their own thoughts all the way, and there was no conversation in the carriage. Ye Kai was driving in front, and suddenly felt that he was very uncomfortable on this road.
The frame that was prepared early was temporarily replaced by His Highness. Even the delicate arrangements in the original car were not allowed to be moved, but a set of ordinary styles was prepared.
Ye Kai couldn’t understand at first, why not use such a delicate and comfortable arrangement? Later, it was the chief steward who made a point. This time, His Highness was leaving the palace with Concubine Zheng, and the object that Master Yao loved in the car, His Highness did not allow others to touch it. That person is also eccentric. She touches something she likes and keeps it for you to lose her temper.
His Highness was so spoiled again, Master Yao obeyed everything he said. No, Concubine Zheng has to take care of the temper when she leaves the house, so she has to make other arrangements.
Now that the carriage has been changed, and the cushions that he is used to are no longer available, Ye Kai suddenly felt a little flustered.
Also, isn’t it too quiet behind this? Why has there been no sound since His Highness got in the car?
Every time His Highness and Master Yao are in there, how can there be a quiet time? Even some scenes that outsiders saw, with red cheeks and ears, Ye Kai did not encounter.
It’s so quiet now, which should be the most appropriate rules of the famous family, but it makes him a little worried. Could it be that Concubine Zheng made His Highness annoyed, so she held on to it so coldly?
The situation in the carriage was not as bad as Ye Kai thought. Helian Minmin is not clumsy. Seeing that Zong Zhenglin has no will to speak, he just sits by the side and gives him some tea at the right time, so as not to be annoying in vain. In addition, this matter has not been settled, and too much has been done, which shows urgency.
In the wing of the inner courtyard of the Red Building, a woman with a veil covering her face met Zong Zhenglin and led people over, and greeted him respectfully.
“This is the imperial concubine? The concubine is polite.”
The people who were sitting together stood up like this, and the exquisite figure was undoubtedly revealed, and Yingshengyanyu instantly fell into his ears. If it weren’t for the veil covering his face, so that he couldn’t see his true face, Helian Minmin would have thought that another goblin like Mu Xiyao had appeared in the world.
“Aunt doesn’t need to be too polite. His Highness respects Aunt, and Helian will follow His Highness to treat you.” Just listening to the voice, this Yugu seems to be a girl who is seventeen or eighteen years old.
There was curiosity in his heart, but he didn’t dare to show the slightest on his face. Many of these strange people are strange means, and they use medicine to maintain their appearance. Isn’t that what this jade aunt is good at? Since people hide their faces, why should they be reckless and offend.
According to His Highness, in the entire Shengjing city, no one can beat the woman in front of him in terms of fragrance and medicine. I can’t say that I can count on her for the rest of my life, and it will fall on her.
“Concubine Zheng, please put your hands in the water and soak them all.” The maid standing behind Yu Gu brought a wooden basin whose material was indistinguishable, and placed it in front of Helian Minmin.
Looking at the clear water in the basin, which was the same as usual, at a glance, Helian Minmin was a little nervous, and she rolled up her sleeves while Gui Li waited. Gently put both hands into the basin, the fingertips just touched the water surface, only to feel the abnormally cold breath quickly spread up along the fingers.
“Yeah!” Helian Minmin exclaimed in fright. This feels so strange, although it is cool, it has a slightly tingling tingling.
Zong Zhenglin frowned and did not interfere with Yugu’s consultation.
“Prince Concubine, don’t be alarmed. The medicinal powder added to this water will not damage the body at all. It’s just that the concubine needs to borrow the medicinal power to diagnose the imperial concubine’s pulse.” Yugu’s words were very kind, soothing Helian Minmin’s surprise. .
“So, it’s my concubine’s rudeness.” He slowly put his hands into the water again, until it was fully immersed, only to hear Yu Gu’s satisfaction call to stop.
“Prince Concubine, sit for a while. The medicinal effect is dissipated, and it takes a stick of incense.”
He said to Helian Minmin, but his eyes were looking at Zong Zhenglin, explaining to him.
Zong Zhenglin hummed to show his understanding, and after a moment of silence, he asked a question that Aunt Yu could never have imagined.
“Women give birth, is there a prescription to avoid the pain?”
Helian Minmin’s fingers that were not underwater trembled slightly. This question is not for the Namu Clan, but for whom? His Royal Highness really took care of Mu Xiyao in his heart.
After the conversation between the two before, His Highness no longer had any scruples, and couldn’t wait to get a prescription for Mrs. Mu in front of her? Even giving birth to a child has to take the opportunity to invite pets, Mu Xiyao is really exhausted.
Yugu didn’t know much about the affairs of Zong Zhenglin’s mansion, but thought this question was a little funny. Is it because the Sixth Highness asked this question because of someone who is very important?
“Dare to ask if this person is a side concubine?” Although it was inappropriate to ask such a straightforward question in front of the Helian clan, Zong Zhenglin should have no scruples about his temper. Even if she avoided it, the Sixth Highness would probably not pay attention.
Sure enough, Zong Zhenglin didn’t feel anything wrong. “Of course. Mrs. Mu will give birth next month. She is more squeamish and can’t stand the pain. The last time she gave birth, it was a toss up.” Facing Yugu, Zong Zhenglin did not hide Mu Xiyao’s shameful problems.
Yu Gu was a little stunned when she first heard this, but after a long while, she was convinced that His Highness was joking, and her face showed some understanding.
“Using medicine to assist in childbirth is not suitable for children after all. If the concubine can endure it, it is better not to use this medicine. If the pain is really severe, the concubine has some soothing ingredients, which should be of some help.
” Years, today we know that this cold-faced man also has moments of tenderness.
I thought that the rumors were exaggerated, but I never thought that this Mu family really has such good ability. Sixth Highness, Yu Gu secretly shook her head, how tough this man is, it is no exaggeration to say that he is cold and cold.
“It’s okay, I’ll bother Yu Gu.” Zong Zhenglin asked the same question, how can a woman give birth without pain. He was really dizzy from being entangled by Mu Xiyao. Zong Zhenglin laughed at himself.
Taking a look at the leaks, Yu Gu asked the girl to hand over the Jinpa, and Gui Li wiped his hands for Helian Minmin as instructed.
With two fingers on Helian Minmin’s wrist, Yugu closed her eyes for a long time. After changing his hand, he took the pulse again. After a long time, he opened his eyes, his expression was very solemn.
Helian Minmin’s heart was half cold, and he had never felt such anxiety again.
After scrutinizing Helian Minmin for a moment, Yu Gu indicated that she could put down her sleeves. Greeting the little girl to withdraw the wooden basin, Yu Gu turned back to the Sixth Highness who was sitting on the head, and said that it was amazing.
“His Royal Highness, the imperial concubine was given a poisonous medicine when she was young. It has been seven years since then. During these seven years, the medicinal power has accumulated every day, and now it is difficult to cure.” Yu Gu shook her head and sighed.
Helian was only a child seven years ago. What kind of hatred is this, that she was so painstakingly murdered that she had to live but suffer the despair of having no children.
Helian Minmin’s body trembled when she heard the words, and the brilliance in her eyes almost disappeared.
Zong Zhenglin’s face sank for the first time.
“This medicine is someone who needs to be served in close quarters, so add **** to the meal?”
If Helian Minmin was buried next to someone, Mu Xiyao’s Danruo Garden would not be targeted. There is also the kid Chengqing, but he is the most likely to attract jealousy.
“Of course. It must be the people around Concubine Zheng. She can touch the food, tea, and water, and melt the medicine in it.” After
Yu Gu replied, Zong Zhenglin immediately turned around and looked at Helian Minmin with gloomy eyes.
“The people around you, who will take care of the food?”
Helian Minmin already had tears in her eyes, her hands tightly clasped together. “Bi Lan, Taohong.”
“She came from Helian’s mansion, and have been with you for more than seven years?”
Helian Minmin’s tears fell, her voice trembling. “Peach red was given to her by her mother three years ago. Only Bi Lan, who has been with her concubine since she was eight years old, was very attentive and thoughtful, so she gave her this errand.”
How could she believe this, but she was actually carried away by her confidant. Master hurt? Helian Minmin felt dizzy. This kind of love from childhood to adulthood can’t be trusted. In the huge prince’s mansion, what else is worthy of her trust?
“Wei Zhen, hurry up and catch someone to see you.” You can tell if you tried it or not. It is best to identify such people who have been exposed to drugs for a long time.
“His Royal Highness,” Yu Gu’s brows were not loosened.
“This medicine is not owned by the Great Wei. It is passed down from two dynasties . Even people from this dynasty need a certificate from the government to buy it. The person behind this identity…” rise. Very good, actually dare to collude with the two dynasty. Although he had never seen the Helian family in his eyes, it was the Yue family on the bright side. Having been nailed like this by outsiders, Zong Zhenglin didn’t do what he thought except cleaning.
There has been no war between the Great Wei and the two dynasties for decades. On the bright side, they were ruled across the river, but in private they dispatched secret agents to each other to inquire about the military situation. The two Jins were united to the outside world, but each had their own filth and fierce battles. If it were not for the restraint of the other three parties, the Great Wei and the two Jins would never be as peaceful as they are now.
Helian Minmin heard of such a secret, and he ignored the tough background of the person behind him.
“Auntie, concubine’s body, really can’t…” Looking at Zong Zhenglin’s back standing by the window, Helian Minmin couldn’t accept his fate. The man who saved her in distress, she was reluctant to let go of her hand… At least, it would be good to have his child.
Yu Gu frowned and looked at her for a moment, pity her what happened, and finally told the truth.
“It’s not impossible at all, but this pain is something very people can bear.”
Helian Minmin seemed to grab the last straw, her eyes instantly brightened, and she stared at Yu Gu’s pleading expression.
“Prince Concubine, this method itself is too sinister and almost unacceptable. If the Concubine Consort uses this method to obtain an heir, it will be difficult to end. Please forgive the Concubine Concubine and tell me about the inconvenience.” and things. Anyone who violates the ancestor’s teaching will be expelled from the teacher’s door.
Helian Minmin clenched her fists tightly, and the hope that suddenly ignited in her heart was unstoppable and firmly entrenched in the depths of her heart.
There is a way, there is a way! As long as there is no hope, even if Yugu is unwilling to tell, she can find out through other means.
On the face of it, he let it go without mentioning it, but Helian Minmin had an obsession in his heart. The huge surprise after returning to life made her suppressed fear to the extreme, and it disappeared in a blink of an eye. Sure enough, there is no way out of the sky, and she, Helian Minmin, deserves to be able to sit firmly in the position of the sixth prince concubine.
As long as she finds a way to successfully give birth to a direct son for His Highness, no matter how many evil species other women give birth to, they will not be able to surpass the word “heir” of her son!
After being abandoned by his family and betrayed by his valet, Helian Minmin, who was almost driven to a dead end, was only tied to his children at this time. This deep-rooted thought made her gradually transform, and gradually overlapped with the dignified and ruthless woman in her previous life.
Wei Zhen had been gone for less than a quarter of an hour, but when he returned, he was alone, and did not see the maid whom His Highness had named to see.
“His Royal Highness, Concubine Zheng’s side, Bi Lan, just half an hour ago, left a book and threw it into the well and committed suicide. The subordinates only found these things in the house that they didn’t have time to deal with.” He took out three bottles of unmarked medicinal powder from his sleeve pocket. , in turn on the mahogany bar case.
Helian Minmin suppressed his anger, his chest heaving slightly.
“How?” His Royal Highness was still calm and composed, not because that person was gone, he was not worried. For Zong Zhenglin, this kind of most common murder is quite commonplace.
Yugu stepped forward to identify them one by one, and finally took out a small glass bottle containing light yellow powder from it. “It should be this thing. The concubine’s body has only been slightly heard from the teacher’s mouth, and it is really seen today.”
“This medicine’s real name is Niu Qi. It is the main medicine for the treatment of black blindness and autumn rash. But after special treatment, After soaking in bezoar and black gold, it has now become a chronic poison.”
Zong Zhenglin nodded. Black blindness and autumn rash is a unique disease in the inland areas of the two dynasties. The reason why Niu Qi only grows in two dynasties is because of the special hot and humid climate there. If I remember correctly, the output of this medicine is very small, so there should be a limit.
Being able to get Niu Qi, and taking medicine for Helian Minmin every day for seven years, this amount is not a small amount when added together. This person and the two sides seem to have a close relationship.
“Tell He Lianzhang truthfully about this.” The old fox would not have thought of what to do next.
“Prince Concubine, please come with your concubine. You still need to cover up your pulse.” Yu Gu brought a complete set of gold needles, more than a dozen medicine bottles of various colors, and even prepared two incense burners. Just by looking at this preparation, you can see that the next thing to do should be very complicated and it will take some effort.
Seeing Zong Zhenglin nod, Helian Minmin took Gui Li to the inner room. The pain of administering the medicine made her whole body cramp, and she groaned in pain.
Gui Li watched his master suffer, and cold sweat broke out in his palms. From time to time, I think of Bi Lan who was thrown into the well, and somehow, I feel a kind of desolation like cooking a rabbit with a dead fox.
An hour later, when Helian Minmin came out again, her face was pale, she was supported by Gui Li tremblingly, her lips were still trembling.
“Your Highness.” The voice was so weak that Zong Zhenglin frowned.
“The medicinal properties are a little stronger. Concubine Zheng goes back and takes a good rest. After tonight, the pulse is no longer abnormal.” Yu Gu packed up and made an explanation.
Zong Zhenglin nodded and thanked Helian Minmin with a hand. He led someone into the car and left through the side door of the alley.
The carriage had just passed the corner and turned onto the street before taking a few steps when it was stopped by Xiaojiao, who was in front of Qibacheng. The woman’s laughter and admiration disturbed Zong Zhenglin’s tranquility through the car curtain.
“Ye Kai?” Putting down the medical book he got from Yu Gu, Zong Zhenglin tapped the carriage twice. “What’s going on ahead?”
Ye Kai lifted the curtain to reveal only half of his body, “His Royal Highness, the fourth princess and the county masters are in front. They are surrounded by artists to watch the fun.”
“Tell them to leave.” Zong Zhenglin instructed coldly, Continue to scroll through.
