Chapter 293
The Holy Majesty wanted to call Princess Wan'an into the palace to help with affairs, but Princess Wan'an had her own small family after all, and her youngest son, who was under half a year old, couldn't do without her.After weighing again and again, the Holy One finally handed over the important task to Princess Changle.

Princess Changle often entered the palace when the queen mother was sick in bed, and sometimes stayed in the palace, and also helped the queen mother with some affairs.She has always been a talented person, and asking her to handle chores in the harem is a bit overkill.The Holy Majesty still occasionally asked her about political affairs these years, and she didn't always help her. Only when the Holy Majesty was really in trouble, she would stand up and give advice to her.

When the Holy Majesty was allowed to temporarily take care of all affairs in the harem, she did not agree. This harem still needs a queen, even if the Holy Majesty does not want to set up a queen, a noble concubine is fine.The Holy Majesty is not even willing to do this, and none of the current concubines in the harem can take on this important task. After repeated requests from the Holy Majesty, and the reason that it is convenient to mourn the Empress Dowager in the palace, the Changle Princess reluctantly agreed. .

Of course the Holy Majesty also knew that maybe the establishment of a new queen would be done once and for all, but he no longer wanted to establish another queen.Looking back now, Empress Jia's life was too sad.Even if he had no intention of loving her, he had to admit that she was a good girl who had nothing else in mind but respected him carefully.But he has never had much patience with Empress Jia. He has always disliked women who are too weak. On the contrary, like Empress Jingyi, she looked at her indifferently and could walk into his heart.

He always misses Empress Jingyi, and thinks about how amazing she was when he first saw her. Although he can't remember her appearance at that time, he still remembers that her cold smile was as bright as the sun at that time, making his eyes bright.Since Empress Jia died, he often dreamed of Empress Jingyi, she seemed a little disappointed, she stood under the lamp and looked at him hesitantly.

He implicated an irrelevant woman and made Empress Jingyi angry. Does he have to implicate another irrelevant woman?He has sat on this throne for a long time, how long can he sit on it?
I don't know whether it was because of overthinking or when the Empress Dowager died of illness, the Holy Majesty was too exhausted to guard the coffin. When Dongyue Holy Majesty fell ill, he only coughed at first, but later the cough was so severe that he couldn't speak.The imperial physician had to stay indoors to recuperate, and the Holy Majesty had to listen for the sake of the health of the Eucharist.

The Holy Majesty was recuperating in the palace, and many things were handed over to his confidant ministers, and he only dealt with some important documents sent to the palace.During this period, King Beichuan was assigned to do several important errands, and he was in the limelight for a while in the court.He has always been domineering, and after being reused by the sage, he suppressed the king of Nanyang County more.The king of Nanyang seems to have no intention of contending with the king of Beichuan, avoiding his edge, and did not conflict with him.

After the new year, the illness of the Holy Majesty is still not cured, and there are even many things that need to be done by Princess Changle for him.When the other princesses entered the palace and saw the Holy Majesty like this, they were also very anxious. While entrusting their aunts to take care of them, they ordered people to find famous doctors. They even invited their families into the palace to check the Holy Majesty's pulse.Jia's family hasn't studied medicine for a few years, and they can't tell the reason why they have a pulse, so they can't blame him.Princess Changle also asked Jiajia carefully, seeing that what he said was similar to an imperial physician and could not prescribe a good prescription, she couldn't help frowning.

"I heard that the master you studied medicine with is very skilled in medicine. I don't know where he is now? Can he enter the palace to discuss the pulse of the saint?" Changle Princess Changle asked.

Jiajia lowered his head helplessly, and replied: "My nephew has already written to the master, but the master said last time that he went to the snow mountain to collect herbs, and there is no news so far, and he doesn't know whether he is alive or dead."

Princess Changle sighed slightly, and said: "Now I also hope that the Holy Spirit will be auspicious."

Zhuhua also followed King Ping into the palace to visit the Holy Majesty, seeing that the Holy Majesty was a little skinny in the past half a year, she felt worried.The Holy Majesty has always been in good health, and when he celebrated his fiftieth birthday a few days ago, he was chatting and laughing with his ministers, and later played polo with others.Zhuhua previously thought that the illness of the Holy One was caused by overwork after the death of the Empress and the Empress Dowager, and then caught a cold, resulting in pneumonia or myocarditis. Zhuhua saw one of her colleagues suffer from this disease in her previous life. Also similar to cardiomyocytes.Since their diagnosis was not wrong and they prescribed the corresponding medicine, how come the Holy One is still not cured?
Later, when she heard King Ping say that the Holy Majesty often dreamed that Empress Jingyi was standing in front of the bed, she had a faint guess in her heart, and said to King Ping, "Do you want to invite the priest of Perak to come into the palace to have a look?"

King Ping knew that she believed in ghosts and gods more and more these years, so he smiled and said: "The Taoist priest has already been there, and the Holy Majesty ordered him to go. The Holy Majesty would like the soul of Empress Jingyi to accompany him forever, and he also wants to meet him. But Taoist Priest Perak said that his illness has nothing to do with ghosts and gods. His Majesty was a little bit disappointed when he heard that."

Zhuhua also sighed when she heard this, and then leaned on King Ping's shoulder, and King Ping put his arms around her waist with a smile, staring at the dancing candlelight.

After the Holy Majesty had been recuperating for more than half a year, he still didn't recover, and many ministers in the court began to feel restless.The Holy Majesty's illness has not improved for a long time, and if it continues like this, I don't know if it will be cured. If it can't be cured, what should they do?But they were already one step behind those who had shown goodwill to King Beichuan earlier, and it would be embarrassing to stand on King Beichuan's side now.

While many ministers were hesitating, in May, the Holy Majesty's illness suddenly recovered, and they couldn't help but rejoice that they had not changed their positions.At the same time, Concubine Sang died suddenly in the palace. This news had to make people think deeply.

Concubine Sang has always been a special existence in the palace. She used to be the maid beside Empress Jingyi. Outsiders don't know whether the Holy Majesty has taken a fancy to her a long time ago or he only promoted her because of his relationship with Empress Jingyi.After she became a side concubine, she was quite polite to her former sister Mei Xue and others in the prince's mansion, but when the sage ascended the throne and she was made a concubine, she despised them and stopped interacting with them.

They also saw her clearly, and from then on they only regarded her as a concubine in the palace.For a long time, Mei Xue and the other three served the three princesses respectively, and now they went to the princess's mansion as nuns with the princess's big wedding, and they were the people the princess relied on most.They didn't feel that this situation was worse than Sang Concubine's, and now it seemed that it was indeed the case.Because of this incident, the doubts that had been in their hearts for a long time gradually dissipated. Maybe the Holy Majesty had chosen Sang Concubine as the side concubine at the time, besides reminding Queen Meng to take good care of the back house, there were other deep meanings.

The death of Empress Jingyi has always been a thorn in the heart of the Holy Majesty, and the Holy Majesty has been looking for the root of its tail, trying to pull it out.Back then, he had some doubts, but they were just doubts. He had no evidence, and he believed that neither the late emperor nor Geng Jieqing would have any.They might believe a reasonable inference, but he could not.

He wanted to find an entrance, and among the four maids around Empress Jingyi, he chose the later concubine Sang.

The death of Empress Jingyi was indeed related to the herbs found in Prince Ping's mansion.That herb is rare but not so unrecognizable.It is the medicine that rich families often use to kill mothers and keep children. Many doctors who have contacts with rich and powerful courtyards know it, and some of them even have this medicinal material.It's just that few people put out the medicinal materials in a big way. Generally, they are ground into powder and purified to find a way to add to the diet. That kind of dosage is enough.

Judging from Zhuhua's symptoms, the two of them didn't take it for a long time, and the amount of intake should not be much.Back then, after Zhuhua was diagnosed by the doctor Wu Yinggong found, who is now the master of Jiajia, she was given a bottle of anti-fetal medicine and the toxicity was cured.Later, she gave birth to Jiajia smoothly, even though her body was still weak, but it didn't hurt the root.Empress Jingyi was not so lucky. After taking this medicine, it was difficult to detect it. But there was a troublesome thing about this medicine, that is, it had to be taken continuously throughout the pregnancy. Zhuhua and Empress Jingyi were pregnant several months apart. I'm sorry too.

Empress Jingyi has always suffered from severe morning sickness, and she couldn't eat anything in the first three months. At that time, Zhuhua didn't send any tonic soup, because the tonic in the first three months was already useless, so how could she waste food?But Empress Jingyi was still poisoned, and she was poisoned early in the morning.That is to say, someone did use the same medicinal herb to poison, but the medicinal materials found in King Ping were just a cover, and the real large dose of poison was poisoned elsewhere.This kind of medicine that needs to be used for a long time, only people in Prince Ji's mansion or only those around Empress Jingyi have the opportunity to take it.

At that time, the Holy Majesty also searched for clues in Prince Ji's Mansion, but did not find the corresponding medicinal materials, so he could only let it go.But the strangest thing is that Princess Ji was poisoned but did not give birth to a child smoothly.Rich families dare to use such medicinal materials because it can ensure the health of their children, and can even ensure that the children they give birth to are healthier than ordinary children. However, the child born by Queen Jingyi is covered in bruises, which shows that there are other reasons. People also got involved.

Some people want to kill Empress Jingyi, some people want to kill his child; the majesty who wants to kill his child can guess how much, or, in fact, he also guessed wrong at the beginning. He has never doubted the king of Chu. Thinking about it now, maybe it is him.But what hurt Empress Jingyi was something he couldn't figure out.

After many years, when Concubine Sang gave him medicine, he still couldn't understand what that person was planning. Even if she lost her husband, she could still live a comfortable life outside. She was the most beloved princess of the first emperor. In front of the late emperor, she was more useful than his real brother.But why did she put the same pain on her own brother after experiencing the pain of losing her husband?
