Chapter 53 Doubt
As soon as Mei Xue returned to the yard, Ping An threw herself into her arms.Seeing Mei Xue's appearance, Zhang Nanny and Yu Rong felt very distressed, and hurried to prepare meals and hot water for her.

Mei Xue hugged Ping An and sat under the flower stand, and Ping An stretched out her small hand to touch Mei Xue's face.

Jiu'er was afraid that Ping'an would touch Mei Xue's wound, so she reached out to stop Ping'an.

Mei Xue signaled Jiu'er not to care about Ping'an, and put her face close to An'an, and the two whispered intimately with their foreheads pressed against each other.

Of course, Ping An couldn't speak yet, but he was still babbling happily.

Jiu'er sat next to Mei Xue and told her what happened in the past few days.

On the second day of the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, Qiao Anran was decreed by Emperor Mingde to be a beauty of the sixth rank, and she was carried into the palace in a small sedan chair that night.

In the century since the founding of the Jin Dynasty, except for the queen, the other concubines were all selected from the civil society, and it was clearly ordered that officials should not intervene in the selection process.

Therefore, the status of concubines in the harem has never been high, and few aristocratic families or high-ranking officials are willing to send their girls to the palace for draft.

What's more, Qiao Anran's way to enter the palace is so ingenious.

Mei Xue smiled lightly, but didn't comment.She just suddenly thought of Meng Ziyi, and was also a little worried about the health of Mrs. Wu Anhou.

Because of Qiao Anran's drama, it is bound to drag the Marquis of Wu'an into a storm of public opinion again.

Sure enough, Mei Xue was dispensing medicine for Princess Chenyang at the pharmacy in the afternoon, and Liang Jinsong and Xiao Yan hurriedly came to her together.

Mrs. Wu'an Hou has been ill for several days.

Looking at the injuries on Mei Xue's hands and face, Xiao Yan was anxious to ask again and again.

The news of Cai Yu's case had not yet reached the capital, so Mei Xue naturally refused to talk to him, she only said that she went to a temple in the outskirts of Beijing to offer incense, accidentally fell while riding a horse, and stayed in the temple for a few days to recuperate.

Putting on the veiled hat and going to the corner gate, Mei Xue got into the carriage, and followed Xiao Yan and Liang Jinsong to the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion.

Seeing that the old lady of Marquis of Wu'an was getting worse, she managed to open her eyes after Mei Xue gave her an injection, but she still couldn't speak, and her mouth was obviously crooked.

Meng Ziyi was so emaciated that he knelt down in front of Mrs. Hou's bed, his expression was dull, and he didn't even have tears.

Mei Xue went to sit in the main hall, and said to Wu Anhou and his wife:
"The old lady had a stroke, probably caused by rage or other reasons. No matter how good the treatment is, it will be difficult to stand up again in the future. Even eating and talking will be greatly affected."

Madam Wu Anhou cried immediately, and Wu Anhou said angrily:

"It's all this bad boy's fault. Someone, drag me out and beat him until he dies."

Mrs. Wu Anhou burst into tears, knelt down and begged Wu Anhou to spare Meng Ziyi:
"This child has always been weak, and he has been suffering day and night for the past few days and can't eat or sleep. If you let someone beat him again, won't it kill him?"

Mei Xue also persuaded:

"Master Hou, the old lady can't be stimulated any more. If something happens to the prince, it may make the old lady's condition worse."

Only then did Marquis Wu An give up, and left with a resentful shake of his sleeves.

Mei Xue comforted Mrs. Marquis Wu'an a few words, and wrote a prescription before leaving the Hou's mansion.

Xiao Yan sent Mei Xue back to the palace, and sneered in anger on the carriage:
"The mother and daughter of the Qiao family really have good means, it can be seen that anyone who is shameless will come up with a way.

Those two bastards, Qiao Juncheng and Yan Wenwen, have already been sent home. "

This result was already expected by Mei Xue.

Just like what Shen Qingyang said, the crime of deceiving the emperor does not involve human life, as long as Emperor Mingde does not pursue it, what can others say?
Seeing that Mei Xue was still indifferent, Xiao Yan asked her:

"Miss Mei, don't you feel wronged?"

Mei Xue shook her head slightly, smiled lightly and said:

"Don't talk about being wronged, I even think it's a waste of time to be distracted by this kind of thing."

What she wanted was the complete destruction of Yan Qiao's family and Tie's family, not just being in jail.

Xiao Yan sighed again:

"You and my cousin really have the same temperament, and Mr. Song too. After hearing the news, they both reacted exactly like you did."

After Mei Xue returned to the palace, she hurriedly dispensed medicine for Princess Chenyang, and set off for the Palace of Compassionate Ning early the next morning, Li Jinzhi insisted on following her to the gate of the palace city.

It was still early, and the market was full of voices selling breakfast.

In the simple fireworks, the taste of happiness is quietly spreading.

Li Jinzhi gently pinched Mei Xue's fingertips, without saying a word, just looked at her with a smile.

Mei Xue turned her face away for a while, but she still couldn't hold back her smile, and whispered to Li Jinzhi:
"When outsiders are around, Shizi can't look at me like this."

Li Jinzhi nodded, then stretched out his hand to stroke Mei Xue's hair before he calmed down and sat down.

Shen Qingyang had obviously reported the truth, and from the suddenly aged expression of the Empress Dowager Jing'an, Mei Xue could feel the severity of the blow she had received.

Princess Chenyang fell ill immediately, and she has been suffering from high fever since last night.

The imperial physicians were all guarding the Compassionate Ning Palace, and when they saw Mei Xue coming, everyone felt as if they had seen a savior.

Emperor Mingde sat in the main hall with a dark face, and Empress Shen and Li Jinyu also looked bad.

When Mei Xue finally lowered Princess Chenyang's temperature, it was almost noon.

Emperor Mingde and Empress Shen went to the bedroom to visit Princess Chenyang together.

Standing in front of the bed, looking at his emaciated younger sister, Emperor Ming De stood silently for a while, then called An Jiang to the door and said:
"According to my order, Cai Yu and others don't need to be escorted to Beijing, but will be directly executed in Qingzhou.

Cai Yu and the thieves were executed by beheading, and the rest, regardless of gender, who were over 12 years old, were beheaded, and the rest were exiled for three thousand li as slaves. "

Mei Xue pursed her lips and closed her eyes, she knew that with Emperor Mingde's anger at the moment, the matter would not end here.

Sure enough, after Emperor Mingde finished speaking, he looked around the bedroom, and coldly continued to order:

"All the palace servants who serve the princess will be exiled in Mobei, and will not return until they die."

Princess Chenyang, who had kept her eyes closed all this time, suddenly opened them, and begged Emperor Mingde with tears in her eyes:

"Brother Huang, I was self-willed back then, so I have nothing to complain about.

It's just that those children, although they are Cai Yu's flesh and blood, they all call me mother, and these palace servants who have served me for many years, they are just negligent, please forgive them. "

Emperor Mingde was unmoved, he looked at Princess Chenyang's eyes gradually turned cold, and said after a long time:

"Chenyang, because of your willfulness, the royal family has become a joke. I hope you will learn to be more sensible in the future."

After finishing speaking, Emperor Mingde ignored Princess Chenyang and turned around to leave.

Princess Chenyang cried aloud, struggled to lie on the edge of the bed, stretched out her hand and grabbed Emperor Mingde's lapel, and begged:

"Brother Huang, I know I was wrong, so I only ask you one thing.

You know, that child Ruhua was adopted by me, she has nothing to do with Cai Yu, and she has never been close to him, so I beg you to let Ruhua go. "

Emperor Mingde remained unmoved, and Empress Dowager Jing'an wiped away her tears and said to him:

"Emperor, your sister is probably going to be like this for the rest of her life, so you should leave her a child, and let her have something to rely on for the rest of her life."

Only then did Emperor Mingde calm down, and it took a long time before he continued to order An Jiang:

"According to my will, Cai Ruhua is ordered to change her name to Li Ruhua, and to be named Princess Changle, and to welcome her back to the palace immediately."

Princess Chenyang heaved a sigh of relief, lay back on the bed and silently closed her eyes and wept.

Emperor Mingde left with Li Jinyu, and the palace servants who served Princess Chenyang were also dragged out.

Mei Xue wrote the prescription and handed it to Aunt Qiu, and handed her the medicine she brought with her, and told her carefully:

"This ointment should be applied to the princess once a day in the morning and evening. If the joints are severely chapped, apply an appropriate amount.

This kind of potion is used to adjust the acid-base balance in the princess's body, so it must be fresh.From now on, every few days, the minister will dispense medicine and send it to the palace. If it is inconvenient for the minister to enter the palace, he will also appoint a trustworthy person to deliver it to you directly, and no one else can pass it on in between. "

Aunt Qiu hurriedly responded, and Empress Dowager Jing'an touched the wound on Mei Xue's hand and face, sighed and said:
"Good boy, Qingyang told Aijia everything, you have suffered."

Mei Xue shook her head, smiled and said:
"It's just a near-miss, so the Empress Dowager doesn't have to take it to heart.

As for the condition of the princess, Wei Chen would like to explain to you in advance.

Because it has been going on for several years, a lot of toxins have accumulated in the body, so it will take at least five or six years to completely clean it up.

But as long as she insists on taking the medicine, the princess's physical condition will improve significantly in at most half a year, at least the chapped skin will heal, and the puffiness will also be greatly improved now. "

Empress Dowager Jing'an's face softened a little, and she hugged the crying Princess Chenyang to persuade:
"Did you hear that? Everything will be fine. In a few days, Ruhua will come to Luoyang and be with you every day."

Princess Chenyang nodded with tears in her eyes, but Mei Xue looked at her eyes and always felt that things would not be as simple as she saw.

A royal princess who grew up in a palace full of strife, how could she be fooled by Cai Yu's few poems?

What's more, what kind of talent can Princess Chenyang not get in touch with?But that Cai Yu was extremely ugly.

In fact, there are doubts everywhere.
