The Biography of Concubine Xi of Yongzheng

Chapter 211 Cinnabar
Yanhua raised her eyes and saw Yinzhen opened the curtain and walked in.His face seemed angry but not angry, with a smile in his eyes, he stared straight at Yan Hua.

Yan Hua rolled his eyes at him coquettishly: "I think you are old."

Yinzhen couldn't help smiling, stepped forward and pinched her cheek: "How dare you."

Bai Zhi followed Hua Ying and the others to salute Yin Zhen, who glanced at her without saying a word.Yan Hua hurriedly stepped forward to hold his arm with a smile and said, "I am worried about something like this happening in Wanfu Pavilion. It happens that Bai Zhi knows medical skills, so how about I let her live in Wanfu Pavilion for a while?"

Yinzhen looked down at Yanhua, seeing her heartless smile, she didn't nod or shake her head: "You have a sense of proportion in your heart, so make up your own mind."

Liu Chengzhi lived in Yinzhen's mansion for two days, checked all the food and drink that had been cleared out of Wanfu Pavilion, and finally found some suspicious fines in pepper powder and brown sugar.It was cinnabar powder, and cinnabar powder was dark red in color, so it was hard to detect when it was mixed with these two seasonings.

If someone didn't do it deliberately, why would this thing appear in these two seasonings?

But he remembered that it was said in the book: Cinnabar can nourish the heart, nourish the heart, nourish the kidney, nourish the spleen, calm the fetus, detoxify, sweat, and see the merits of the assistant.Cinnabar has always been the first-choice medicine for calming the nerves, and there is even a book saying that "only one taste of cinnabar is needed, and all diseases can be cured, and all medicines can be used away."

He naturally felt that these remarks were too exaggerated, but cinnabar was indeed wonderful.He couldn't figure it out, and hurriedly asked someone who came to Wanfu Pavilion to ask about it.

As a result, Huaying and the others didn't know about it: "Doctor Liu, if Ge Ge needs to soothe the nerves, we will certainly boil the decoction to calm the nerves and drink it with them. We will definitely not add this to our daily diet. Eating too much of this is harmful?"

Liu Chengzhi shook his head: "Cinnabar has always been a good medicine, so how can it be harmful? However, it's too late to go too far. If you eat this thing all day long, you will have some problems if you don't get sick."

He also taught Huaying and Xianyun how to distinguish cinnabar, and after he finished speaking, he went to ask Yinzhen to resign.

Confused, Yinzhen asked Wei Chang'an to prepare another small portion of the food in Wanfu Pavilion, and took it directly to the Imperial Hospital the next day for the imperial doctors to examine.The results obtained were the same as what Liu Chengzhi found out, except for the addition of cinnabar powder to the pepper powder and brown sugar, everything else was normal and non-toxic.

"Then why do the silver needles change color?" Yinzhen pondered, stroked his chin and glanced at the several imperial physicians in puzzlement.

"This..." The two imperial physicians looked at each other in blank dismay, and lowered their heads guiltily, not knowing how to answer.

Jiang Yu was squeezed in the back, and when no one answered, he tiptoed and said, "Master Belle, not all poisons can change the color of silver needles, and not all poisons that can change the color of silver needles are poisonous."

One of the two imperial physicians in front turned around and glared at him: "How do you know? It's common sense that silver needles turn black when poisoned."

Jiang Yu was stunned for a moment, then stood up humbly and lowered his eyes: "Doctor Liang, I have tried to insert a silver needle into an egg, and the silver needle will also change color. But the egg is not poisonous, so it can be seen that using a silver needle Drug testing is not necessarily reliable."

Physician Liang was refuted face to face, unable to hold back his face, his old face blushed, and immediately wanted to verify whether Jiang Yu's words were true.

Yinzhen stood by and watched coldly, until the silver needle inserted into the egg turned black, and then he told Jiang Yu alone to check the food again carefully, and then he was cold face gone...

He didn't know that there was a lot of trouble in his house.

Wei Chang'an took the jade bracelet and searched in the mansion, trying to find the owner of the jade bracelet. Unexpectedly, Zhenyue from Jinxiuxuan said with a strange expression: "If I remember correctly, this bracelet seems to be... Jinqiu's. , but hasn't she already... gone?"

Hearing what she said, Wei Changan hurriedly took a closer look at the bracelet.No wonder he looked familiar, because there were several blood-red veins on the jade bracelet, so he was quite impressed.However, Jin Qiu is obviously dead, and Jin Qiu's body was buried by him himself, in a mass grave on the outskirts of the city - when the rotten body was buried, the jade bracelet was obviously put on the arm of the corpse superior.

Jade bracelets are worthless, and Wei Changan was sure that no one picked things from dead people because they were greedy for such things.

So, this was someone who dug up the grave and picked it off from the dead man?

His eyes froze, and he hurriedly took people to the mass grave on the outskirts of the city.

Although Wei Changan left, the maid who had seen the jade bracelet and knew it quickly spread the word.

When Yinzhen came back and went to Wanfu Pavilion, he happened to hear two maids discussing this matter hiding in a corner.

"I heard Wei Wei took a jade bracelet and asked everyone who it belonged to?" the green-coated maid asked.

"Well, I heard that Jin Qiu came back to take her life, that's why her most precious thing suddenly appeared in the mansion." The maid in the gray coat was mysterious, and she said it very seriously.

"Hiss... don't talk nonsense, she is dead, what is she doing? She hanged herself." The green jacket was frightened, and goosebumps appeared.

Gray jacket blinked, and said seriously: "What are you lying to? Have you forgotten? Lingxi, who served Changege before, said that she had seen Jinqiu's wronged soul. Didn't Hong Ling from Jinxiuxuan say that too? Have you seen it? She said that she saw Jinqiu floating into Song Gege's room in a pale body! Later, she asked the masters to recite scriptures for salvation, have you forgotten?"

The green jacket trembled: "Song Gege caused her harm, she won't come to harm us, right? If she wants to take her life, she should also take Song Gege's life..."

"Bah, bah, bah! Don't talk nonsense. The house has been peaceful these few years, and she will definitely not take her life indiscriminately. Jinqiu was kind-hearted when she was alive, and she must be a good ghost when she dies. Look at who has been harmed by her evil spirits." , how does she look like Song Gege, hum, she hides a knife in her smile, and she is full of bad water."

Hearing this, Yin Zhen frowned slightly.Song Wan, as her name suggests, is mellow and soft, is she really full of bad luck?

He suddenly remembered that two years ago, Song's pregnancy, although it was ten months of pregnancy, she finally gave birth, but before he could hold her in her arms, the child died prematurely.

Why was he indifferent to her then?Because the child appeared unexpectedly.

At that time, he hadn't forgiven Mrs. Song, because Mrs. Song had let Sun Yuan spy on him before and after having sex with others at night, and he was annoyed in his heart, but he did not divorce her because she had served him for more than ten years.

He originally planned to just raise her like that, and no longer yearn for her tenderness and ecstasy.Unexpectedly, the Song family took the initiative to run to the Yonghua Palace that night, weeping, and showing tenderness when she was pitiful.He didn't know why, but after hearing her gentle words, he drank a glass of acacia wine, and then had a lingering night.

When he woke up the next day, he was a little angry, angry at why he suddenly fell into a daze and was hooked by her.What was even more annoying was that she never knew what was wrong with her, and she was always so pitiful that he couldn't vent the anger in his heart.

Therefore, his attitude towards Song became more and more indifferent, so indifferent to the child she gave birth to with a little anger.

However, he couldn't see others pointing fingers at his people, and he couldn't hear others slandering his woman behind his back.

His figure was blocked by a clump of bushes, so the two maids didn't see Yinzhen standing there eavesdropping.The guards following Yinzhen heard the two maids complaining more and more, and looked up to see that Yinzhen's face was getting worse and worse. He was afraid that something big would happen if they continued talking, so he hurriedly coughed as a reminder.

The two maids were startled, they looked around in a panic, and saw someone standing behind the bushes, but they didn't dare to see who it was, so they hurriedly ran away along the base of the wall in desperation.

"Master Belle, do you need a servant to hold them both accountable? How many boards should you blame?" Seeing that Yinzhen's expression had not eased, the guard quickly lowered his head.

Yinzhen glanced back at him indifferently: "No need. When Wei Changan comes back, tell him to come to Wanfu Pavilion to find me. I have something to ask him."

"twitter!"

In the Wanfu Pavilion, Hua Ying was giving Bai Zhi a picture book: "Teach Ge Ge to see which positions are easy to conceive. Ge Ge is not too young now, and it is time to give birth to a boy and a half girl for Lord Baylor. Look at Song Gege, after so many years in the mansion, I haven’t given birth to a little master, and Lord Belle is ignoring her now. I heard that after Song Gege’s little Gege passed away, Lord Belle never set foot in Jinxiu again. What about Xuan?"

Huaying knows that Yanhua has always been concerned about not being able to have a child, so now, taking advantage of this poisoning incident, she hurriedly changed the subject, intending to instill in Yanhua the idea that "it's not that she can't conceive, but that she and Yinzhen are in the wrong position for loving each other". idea.

After hearing what Huaying said, Yanhua felt embarrassed: "Huaying, you don't look like a big innocent girl, you don't know how to restrain yourself when you speak, so don't be ashamed!"

Huaying smiled and ran away from Yanhua's hand that was reaching out to hit her, and ran back a few steps.

After Liu Chengzhi left, Bai Zhi was absent-minded all the time, and asked to resign several times, but Yan Hua stayed behind.Although Liu Chengzhi said that the cinnabar is non-toxic, she felt that the toxin was hidden in her body after all, which made her unable to conceive, so she wanted Bai Zhi to recuperate her body.

But she has nowhere to go, and she has no other choice but to live here.Liu Chengzhi came back to the house to see a doctor from time to time, so that he would have more chances to see him.

So Bai Zhi came back to her senses, and turned through the picture album a few times, and saw that the style of painting inside was bold, and every page was so delicately drawn, she couldn't help but wondered: "This... this booklet of erotic palace is not from Fengyuelou, right?" ? How can you draw so finely?"

"Fengyue Tower? What kind of building is Fengyue Tower?" Yanhua stopped, walked over and took the album in her hand.

"Fengyue Tower is..."
