Houmen Yixiang

Chapter 276 Discovering the Cause of the Emperor’s Poisoning

It was just dawn, and there were few pedestrians on the road.

On the carriage entering the palace, Xiao Yichen comforted Lu Xinyan, "Don't worry, in the name of father, Bai Zhi will be picked up."

Lu Xinyan glanced at him, then suddenly grabbed his hand and bit it hard, "Men are big pigs!"

Lu Xinyan asked the people in Linlang Pavilion to find out about Shuyun.

To put it simply, it is combing the clouds!Leaving Longfu, Long Tianxing made things difficult on purpose, and Shuyun did not hesitate to walk barefoot on the road of charcoal fire in order to leave.

Xiao Yichen gasped, "What does this have to do with me?"

"Hmph! Men don't have a good thing!" Continue to bite.

"Daughter-in-law, I have been wronged! I am devoted to you, and the world can learn from it!" Xiao Yichen didn't dare to withdraw his hand, letting Lu Xinyan bite, "Daughter-in-law, you can't blame Master Long's fault on me."

Lu Xinyan snorted.

"Besides, you haven't been with me for two nights." Xiao Yichen said aggrievedly.

When the maid in the past was injured, he had to stay alone in the empty room!

He was wronged so much, the daughter-in-law not only didn't feel sorry for her, but even bit him. He was wronged, really wronged!

Lu Xinyan let go of her mouth and gave Xiao Yichen a supercilious look.

She didn't use any strength, what's the ghost calling?
Xiao Yichen took the opportunity to hug her, "Daughter-in-law, don't be angry, why don't you vent your anger for your husband?"

Lu Xinyan didn't say a word.

Xiao Yichen didn't understand combing clouds, she understood.

Shu Yun is a snobbish person in reality, he wants to climb high whenever he has the opportunity, and he will not hesitate to make compromises for the sake of prosperity and wealth.

But she is also loyal, brave and decisive, and has her own principles and bottom lines.

Such a person, if she hadn't encountered something that touched her bottom line, she would never have left Dragon Mansion so resolutely and tragically!

It can make a woman who only loves glory and wealth willingly abandon the glory and wealth that she has already obtained.

The only reason is about love!

She was emotional.

But how could a man like Long Tianxing be in love with Sou Yun?

Shu Yun fell in love first, and she lost.

She understood.

She doesn't want to be trapped in the love net, she would rather be covered in bruises, but she also wants to break out of the net and be reborn from the cocoon.

How resolute you were when you rushed over, how decisive you are to quit now!

However, can a person's heart return to its place safely because of physical pain?
Lu Xinyan was afraid that Shu Yunbai's suffering would cost her life, but it couldn't change anything!
"Xiao Yichen, if you dare to change your mind and betray me in the future, I will bite you to death!"

She bared her teeth and claws in his arms!
"Daughter-in-law, my love for you can be learned from heaven and earth, and I will never betray you! You have to promise me that you will never change your mind, otherwise..."

"Hmph! Look at your performance!" Lu Xinyan raised her chin arrogantly.

"What?!" The man behind him growled sinisterly, grabbing her chin with one hand.

She actually still thinks about it?
That way, jealous to eat people.

Lu Xinyan thumped a bit, then changed her style in the next second, and kissed him with a smile, "Unless someone more handsome and capable than you appears! But in my eyes, you are the most handsome and capable!"

Xiao Yichen was very dissatisfied with this answer, but he hadn't kissed his wife for a long time, so he kissed his wife first.

For other questions, I will find a chance to extract a confession later!

"Hmm..." The man turned his back on the customer and blocked Lu Xinyan's red lips.

"Xiao Yichen, don't move your hands and feet, you will soon enter the palace, um..."

A man who has been vegetarian for a few days, finally catches the opportunity, how can he let go if he is not full?

"Xiao...Xiao Shizi, you should...you should go to court early..."

"Father is not feeling well today, I have asked someone to take a leave of absence and wait at home."

"You... are you waiting for illness like this?"

"Father's wish, a son knows best. Shhh, be obedient, move around..."

"I don't...um..."

In the carriage, ear-piercing groans soon sounded.

When he arrived outside the palace, Xiao Yichen jumped off the carriage refreshed.

Lu Xin's face was flushed, her eyes were blurred, and she was limply carried off the carriage by Xiao Yichen.

"Put me down!"

"Still have the strength to walk?" Someone raised an eyebrow.

"Bastard!" Lu Xin's face was burning hot, and she glared at him fiercely.

"There is still some distance to the Longevity Palace. You should take a good rest and I will call you when you arrive."

Lu Xinyan didn't have a good rest for two nights. She was messing around a while ago and felt weak all over. She thought that she didn't have a good reputation long ago, so she didn't bother to worry about it.

Ren Xiao Yichen hugged himself, closed his eyes, and rested in his arms.

In the Longevity Palace, after the Queen Mother knew about Lu Xinyan and Xiao Yichen's intentions, it was exactly as Lu Xinyan predicted. Although she was a little reluctant, she had to stop Bai Zhi from leaving the palace.

"Eunuch Lin, take Xiao Shizi and the princess to find Ming Zhi. By the way, on behalf of the Ai family, go to the Duke's mansion to see the Duke."

What the queen mother said was not to suspect that Xiao Yan was fine and pretend to be sick, but to send Eunuch Lin to follow Bai Zhi, in order to warn Bai Zhi not to say what she should not say.

"Thank you, Empress Dowager!"

"Xiao Shizi, Princess Zhuzhu, this way please."

The palace is being repaired, and whenever the palace is repaired, Bai Zhi will find an excuse to go there to take a closer look, looking for clues that may poison Emperor Longde.

Unfortunately, until now, no clues have been found.

"Mingzhi Xiangjun is currently in Chonghua Palace, and Concubine Qi feels a little unwell."

Concubine Qi is the cousin of Qi Huai'en, the left servant of the Ministry of War, and the concubine of the Eighth Prince.

Qi Huai'en joined Xiao Yichen's army supervisor back then.

Lu Xinyan doesn't know if Concubine Qi is in good health, but it must be an excuse for Bai Zhi to see a doctor for her.

She knew it well, and asked along the words: "Eunuch Lin, is Concubine Qi okay?"

Eunuch Lin said: "I heard that it has been a problem for many years. Concubine Qi knows that Mingzhi Township Lord has superb medical skills, so I specially invited her to go."

"Then if I take Bai Zhi away, will this delay Concubine Qi's condition?"

"It's okay. Since it's an old problem, it's okay to think about it later."

"I can rest assured that."

Lu Xinyan was talking when she was suddenly attracted by a reflected light.

Looking up, I saw a few eunuchs, holding bright yellow clothes, coming from a distance.

Under the sun, the bright yellow is like gold, which is particularly dazzling.

Eunuch Lin took a pleasing look and explained: "Princess, it is the emperor's inner garment. After cleaning the incense, it was sent back to the emperor's bedroom. It was not this way, but the palace was repaired, and some roads were blocked, so I detoured over here."

"The emperor's inner garment? Doesn't it mean that the emperor's clothes are worn once? Do they still need to be washed?" Lu Xinyan asked curiously.

Mr. Lin said: "It is generally true, but the emperor said that the old inner clothes are more comfortable, so he will wear them more times."

"Oh, so that's the case." Lu Xinyan suddenly realized, and couldn't help but take a few more glances.

Chonghua Palace arrived, Xiao Yichen was not fit to go in, so he stayed outside.

Lu Xinyan followed Eunuch Lin in.

After meeting Concubine Qi, Lu Xinyan and Bai Zhi, who hadn't seen each other for a long time, happily embraced each other.

"Miss looks good." Bai Zhi joked, "It seems that Mr. Xiao took good care of you."

She intentionally bit down the word "take care" heavily, and Lu Xin's face became hot, "You look a bit grim, don't you worry?"

She was referring to Emperor Longde's poison.

With Eunuch Lin here, it's hard for the two of them to speak too bluntly.

But they both know what it means.

"Fortunately, the Empress Dowager is taking good care of her, as well as Princess Chang'an." Bai Zhi took her hand, "Miss, what's the matter with you coming into the palace?"

"Father's leg has a problem, Xiao Shizi and I came to the palace to take you back to visit for Father." Lu Xinyan said: "The Queen Mother has already agreed, and specially sent Eunuch Lin to visit Father with us. "

"Trouble Eunuch Lin." Bai Zhi said.

When returning to Duke Zhen's mansion, Xiao Yichen and Lu Xinyan were in a carriage, Bai Zhi was in a carriage, and Eunuch Lin was sitting in front of Bai Zhi's carriage.

In his capacity, this need not be the case.

But no one asked anything, everyone was a smart person, and they didn't tell the truth.

Zhen Guogong Mansion, Su Yuan.

Ming Lan stood at the gate of the courtyard, anxiously waiting for Lu Xinyan and others to return.

"Aunt Lan!"

Minglan was overjoyed when she heard the voice, "Young Master, Young Madam, Xiangjun...Eunuch Lin?"

Eunuch Lin chuckled, "Miss Minglan, the Empress Dowager heard that the Duke is not feeling well, so she specially ordered this old slave to visit him."

"Eunuch Laurin, please come here!"

Several people entered Xiao Yan's room, Xiao Yan was lying on the bed, his face was pale, his forehead was sweating, and he seemed to be enduring great pain.

"This old slave sees the Duke!"

When Xiao Yan heard the voice, he was about to get up, Eunuch Lin hurriedly said: "Grandpa, don't move! You've broken this old slave, if the Queen Mother knows about this, I won't be able to spare this old slave!"

Xiao Yan didn't move, and smiled, "Eunuch Lao Lin thanked the Empress Dowager for me! It's a crime to disturb her old man with such a useless body!"

"Master, please don't say that! You are the pillar of the country, the emperor and the empress dowager hope that you will get well soon and continue to serve the country!"

After the two exchanged pleasantries for a while, Eunuch Lin said: "The old slave will treat the Duke without disturbing the Lord. Please, Lord."

Bai Zhi stepped forward and blessed him, "Master, I offended you."

"Trouble, Mr. Xiang."

Xiao Yan signaled Chen Yong to lift the quilt.

Because he couldn't move, even in summer, Xiao Yan's legs were covered with a thin quilt.

Chen Yong rolled up his trousers.

A pair of pale, slender legs, as thin as a frail boy, were exposed to everyone.

Lu Xinyan turned her eyes away.

Not only because Xiao Yan is a male elder, but also because he can't bear it.

The young general who used to gallop in high spirits on the battlefield was bedridden for 20 years due to an accident.

A body of kung fu, full of enthusiasm, is confined to this square inch, and the blood cools down, allowing the years to fade away.

Anyone who sees it will feel unbearable.

Eunuch Lin also turned away, showing regret, probably thinking of the past.

Bai Zhi carefully checked and asked for him, and touched the injured part of his waist.

Xiao Yan was very cooperative, answering every question without any impatience.

Finally, after Bai Zhi thought for a long time, she said: "I will relieve the pain for the Duke first."

She took out the silver needle, and quickly inserted the silver needle into several large acupuncture points on Xiao Yan's waist and below.

After a while, Xiao Yan said in surprise: "Xiangjun's medical skills are really good, I feel much better now!"

Bai Zhi said: "This can only relieve your pain temporarily, it cannot cure it."

"I know." Without the torment of pain, Xiao Yan's complexion improved a lot, and he even smiled weakly, "It's enough to feel pain-free once in a while."

After Bai Zhi pulled out the silver needle, she said, "Master Guo, please take a good rest."

Turning to Minglan and Chen Yongdao again: "I want to dispense medicine for the Duke of the State, can you two keep the previous prescriptions? If you have any, bring them to me to see, if there is a collision, it will be bad."

When Lu Xinyan heard this, she gave Bai Zhi a strange look.

In my impression, with Bai Zhi's medical skills, for patients who have been treated by her, she can know what medicine the patient has taken after feeling the pulse, and there is no need to read the prescriptions prescribed by the previous doctor.

Chen Yongwei: "This little one doesn't..."

"Slaves are there! Lord Xiang, please wait a moment!"

After Minglan finished speaking, she ran out quickly, and then came back quickly.

Holding a mahogany box in his hand.

Panting for breath, she handed the box to Bai Zhi, "Mr. Xiang, since the Duke fell ill, all the prescriptions prescribed by the doctor and slaves have been preserved, and they are all here!"

Bai Zhi took it, "There is Aunt Laulan."

"Thank you, Aunt Lan!" Xiao Yichen looked at Minglan gratefully. As a son, he didn't expect so much, but Minglan did.

"This is a servant's job!" Ming Lan panicked.

Bai Zhi opened the box, took out a thick stack of prescriptions inside, and quickly browsed through it.

Lu Xinyan noticed that Bai Zhi spent the longest time looking at the last few prescriptions.

The prescriptions are placed in chronological order, with the most recent at the top and the oldest at the bottom.

That is to say, the prescription that Bai Zhi focused on was the one prescribed by the doctor who was the first to invite Xiao Yan when he was injured.

Or, from the very beginning, what Bai Zhi wanted to see was these prescriptions?
Is there any secret in that prescription?
Lu Xinyan couldn't help looking at Bai Zhi, only to see that she had returned the prescription to Ming Lan as if nothing had happened.

"I'll prescribe a prescription first, and drink it for half a month to see the effect."

Minglan immediately prepared the paper and ink that had been prepared.

Bai Zhi was writing with her head down, when there was a commotion outside.

"Miss! Miss!"

Lu Xinyan said: "It's Qingtong, I'm afraid there is something urgent, let her in."

This was explained to Eunuch Lin.

As soon as the words fell, Qing Tong hurried in, grabbed Bai Zhi and left, "Bai Zhi, come with me!"

Lu Xinyan shouted: "Qingtong, don't be rude! Eunuch Lin is here in the palace!"

Only then did Qingtong notice Eunuch Lin at the side, and hurriedly cupped his hands and said, "I've seen Eunuch Lin, but I didn't know Eunuch Lin was here, please forgive me."

She had been in the palace a few times, and Eunuch Lin recognized her, so he said, "Miss Qingtong, why are you looking for the Lord so urgently?"

"Eunuch Lin, to tell you the truth, it's urgent, I'm waiting for help! I'll explain to you later!" After finishing speaking, he wanted to pull Bai Zhi again.

Lu Xinyan reprimanded: "Qingtong, explain the matter clearly!"

Qingtong had no choice but to say: "Miss, today Xiaohe said that she wanted to eat barbecue, so Madam Cheng prepared the charcoal fire and ingredients. Unexpectedly, a maid accidentally knocked over the charcoal fire, stepped on it accidentally, and hurt her foot It's serious! I invited the doctor to see her and said that she was going to amputate her feet, which made the girl faint. I remembered that Bai Zhi just came back, and the girl usually had a good relationship with her, so I rushed to take her there. have a look!"

Lu Xinyan was worried and angry at the same time, "I'm not here for a while, you guys have caused so many things! Are you ashamed?"

Qingtong lowered her head, "I'm sorry, Miss."

Lu Xinyan turned her head to Eunuch Lin, licked her smiling face and said, "Eunuch Lin, it's all because of my incompetence in discipline, spoiling those maidservants to be lawless, I am laughing at you! Bai Zhi is just here, see if you can..."

Mr. Lin said: "What is a barbecue? I have lived for decades and I have never seen it. The county chief does not dislike the old slave. Can you take the old slave to have a look?"

It is false to go to the barbecue, and it is true to monitor Bai Zhi, but this is also agreed!

"It's rare that Eunuch Lin is interested, it's only natural! Qingtong, take Eunuch Lin there!"

"Yes, miss!" Qingtong stretched out her hand, "Eunuch Lin, this way please."

Bai Zhi wrote a prescription, explained a few words, and followed Lu Xinyan and Xiao Yichen to Yuexin Hospital.

Yue Xin Yuan is now a mess.

The smoke filled the air, the charcoal fire was flying, and the shelves, forks, vegetables and meat ingredients fell all over the ground, and there were still water marks on the ground.

Nanny Lu was leading someone to clean up, while Xiao He was standing in the yard crying with the black cat and bastard in his arms.

Seeing Lu Xinyan coming, she hurried over and said in a crying voice, "Miss! I got into trouble! It's all my fault that I didn't pay attention to the little bastard! Huh~"

Lu Xinyan glared at her, "I'll settle the score with you later! Go reflect!"

"Yes, miss! Woohoo..."

Xiao He hugged the little bastard and left crying.

"Hehe, Eunuch Lin, I made you laugh."

"You might as well go and see the injured girl first."

"Eunuch Lin, this way please."

Even though Eunuch Lin is an eunuch, it is not good for him to go into the room of a servant girl in someone else's mansion. He stood at the door and looked in.

I saw a few women beside the bed crying, and the injured maid on the bed was blocked, so I couldn't see her face clearly, only two scorched feet were exposed, which was really scary.

A smell of medicine and burnt smell mixed together, it was very unpleasant.

Eunuch Lin felt a little sick when he smelled the smell, and looked at those two feet with pity in his heart, "Mr. Xiang, go and have a look quickly, don't worry about this old slave."

Bai Zhi answered yes, and hurried in.

Lu Xinyan heaved a sigh of relief and didn't follow in. Instead, she directed Nanny Lu to set up the barbecue grill outside, and greeted Eunuch Lin by grilling herself.

The grilled pork belly chicken wings are either sprinkled with honey or chilli, tempting the secretion of mouth water.

If Eunuch Lin hadn't seen those feet just now, they looked fresh, so he would probably have a taste.

But now I still feel sick in my heart, I dare not try it at all, I only ate some vegetarian dishes.

This made him full of praise, saying that he has something important to do this time, next time he has a chance, he must give it a try!
Bai Zhi quickly treated the wound for Shu Yun, and prescribed a prescription, "This is rubbed externally, and this is taken internally. After three days, change to this internally. After the scar has formed, rub this together to remove the scar."

Xing Luo wrote them down one by one, and double-checked them carefully.

Before leaving, Lu Xinyan said: "By the way, Bai Zhi, Nanny Lu made you an underwear and put it in my room. I don't know when you will come back. Why don't you take it into the palace now."

Nanny Lu was stunned for a while, "Bai Zhi, wait a minute, I'll get it right away."

She went to Lu Xinyan's room and took out a set of plain white underwear. Lu Xinyan took it and handed it to Bai Zhi. She smiled and said, "There are the Empress Dowager and Princess Chang'an in the palace. They will take good care of you. I don't worry about you." .You don’t have to worry about us, I will take good care of everyone, and you can concentrate on treating the Empress Dowager! We are waiting for you to come back!”

Under the inner garment, she quickly slid her fingers on Bai Zhi's palm. Bai Zhi's heart moved, and she said calmly: "Thank you, Miss, thank you, Mother Lu. I will be back when the Empress Dowager gets better. You wait for me."

She took the coat, turned to Eunuch Lin and said, "Eunuch Lin, you can go."

"It's rare for Mr. Xiang to come back, so it's okay to stay longer."

"No need, it's time for the Empress Dowager to take medicine." Bai Zhi said, "Go back now, just in time."

Eunuch Lin is very consoling, at his age, when he should be dizzy, he will be dizzy, and when he should be insane, he will be insane.

"Xiang Jun has a heart, let's go." Lin Gonggong said: "Xiao Shizi, Princess Zhuzhu, this old slave will leave."

Lu Xinyan and Xiao Yichen graciously sent him and Bai Zhi outside the door, and watched them get into the carriage and leave.

After closing the door, Lu Xinyan collapsed into Xiao Yichen's arms.

"This play is finally over, I'm exhausted." She heaved a long sigh of relief.

"I'll carry you back."

Xiao Yichen hugged his daughter-in-law distressedly, and kissed her forehead to express his comfort.

Lu Xinyan rolled her eyes at him ungratefully, "I blame you, if you weren't messing around in the car, I would be so tired?"

Xiao Yichen chuckled, "I just blame my daughter-in-law for being too attractive, even gods can't control her, let alone me, a mere mortal?"

"Who seduced you?!" She didn't take the blame for it, she obviously didn't do anything!
"Your nose, your eyes, your breath, your hair are all seducing me! You just have to look at me, no, even if you don't look at me, as long as you appear in my line of sight, I can't help being seduced by you!"

Lu Xinyan couldn't help laughing out at that serious and affectionate look.

My heart is as sweet as eating honey.

Xiao's love words are still very touching.

"You pass!"

Lu Xinyan graciously forgave what happened in the morning.

"Then daughter-in-law, wait a moment..." The man made an inch of it for his own benefit.

Lu Xinyan slapped him, "I see Dad just now, it's not like he's pretending, let's go see his old man first! And Shu Yun, I'm going to wake up later, I have to ask her what's going on! And tomorrow, Mrs. Yan's birthday, I want to count the congratulatory gifts... um..."

Before he could finish speaking, someone bit his lip.

Lu Xinyan covered it, and said angrily, "Why did you bite me?"

"What about me? I am in your mind, behind everything?" Someone was jealous.

After letting her go on, he felt that he was even worse than a little bastard!
This big vinegar jar!

Lu Xinyan had no choice but to hold his face, coaxing: "Okay, okay, after finishing these three things, I will accompany you for the rest of the time, okay?"

Xiao Yichen hummed reluctantly.

Lu Xinyan: Hey, I'm so tired!
I was also a little puzzled, why was it that he coaxed her first every time, but in the end it turned into her coaxing him?

Or do you have to contribute yourself and work hard to coax?
Is she too generous, or is Xiao Shizi's routine too deep?Always let her fall into the trap unconsciously?
Lu Xinyan was analyzing, "Daughter-in-law, what kind of riddle did you play with Bai Zhi just now?"

Xiao Yichen's words brought her back to reality in an instant.

"Well, I found a few problems. Let's talk about father first. Is father sick, or..."

"My father's legs would hurt very badly from time to time, and the medicines were still effective at first, but later my father found out that the medicines were treating the symptoms but not the root cause, and his physical fitness had declined severely, so my father stopped taking them and relied on himself to resist. "Xiao Yichen said: "So Dad just now, half of it was really hurting, and half of it was acting."

Lu Xinyan nodded knowingly.

Xiao Yan's situation is roughly like taking painkillers in modern times. If you take too much, the efficacy of the medicine will decrease, and there will be side effects.

"Father's leg injury, Bai Zhi may have discovered some problems."

"what is the problem?"

"I don't know, I have to ask Bai Zhi about this." Lu Xinyan explained Bai Zhi's abnormality before, "Based on what I know about her, she must have noticed something, but she didn't hint, which means there is no problem now."

"I will send someone to look out for it." Xiao Yichen said, "Then you gave Bai Zhi the underwear you made recently, saying that Nanny Lu made it for her, why?"

The two had already arrived at Yuexin Hospital, and Lu Xinyan said relievedly: "I may have discovered the cause of the emperor's poisoning."

Xiao Yichen was shocked, "What!?"

"Entering the palace in the morning, on the way to the Chonghua Palace, I saw the little eunuch holding the emperor's tunic in his hands. The luster in the sun looked a bit wrong. The natural silk luster was bright but not dazzling. There were two tunics in there. The luster is dazzling. Unless there is something else in it, it won’t be so! I gave Baizhi Liyi and wrote a word of poison in her hand, implying that her emperor’s poisoning may have something to do with the inner clothing!”

"Is there a problem with the luster? I saw it at the time, and I didn't feel any difference!" Xiao Yichen was a little suspicious, "Are you sure?"

"Every line is like a mountain, Xiao Shizi." Lu Xinyan said: "It's like kung fu, you can easily see other people's flaws, but I can't see anything! But I have touched clothes for more than ten years, and even if there is only a slight change in those colors, I will I can see it too!"

"Over ten years?"

Come on, show off!More than ten years is a thing of the previous life!
"It's just an analogy!" Lu Xinyan was vague, and turned the topic back, "Now that we have a direction, I hope that Bai Zhi will find out the poisoner as soon as possible!"
