Chapter 212 Tooth for Tooth
Chapter 212 Tooth for Tooth
At this time, in the Yangxin Palace.
Gu Junshen, who had just finished attending the morning court, was reading a book and drinking tea on the dragon chair. As a eunuch brought a plate of snacks, he asked, "Did the imperial concubine ask the imperial physician to see the prince and princess?"
"Your Majesty! The Imperial Concubine has invited the Imperial Physician."
"But what was found out?" Gu Junshen asked.
"I don't know!" The eunuch shook his head slightly in fear.
Gu Junshen's majesty was quite powerful. Ordinary eunuchs dared not speak nonsense when they saw him, and they even dared not breathe.
After hearing this, he waved his hand with some impatience and asked Liu Sheng to come over.
After the eunuch left, he immediately let Liu Sheng in.
"Your Majesty! What do you want me to do?" Liu Sheng asked softly.
"Go ask the imperial physician what disease the prince and princess have."
Gu Junshen gave an order with some concern and let Liu Sheng go down.
Ever since he heard that Gu Chenyu and Gu Jinxuan were ill, Gu Junshen had been worried all the time. He always kept this matter in mind and was even thinking about it during the morning court session.
As soon as the morning court session ended, he sent someone to inquire about the results.
After a long time, Liu Sheng slowly returned to the palace. At this time, he had already learned the diagnosis results of the prince and princess.
"Your Majesty! The prince and princess accidentally ate something and are feeling unwell. The imperial physician has already prescribed a prescription."
After hearing this, Gu Junshen felt relieved. It was good to know what the disease was. At least he didn't have to worry.
"Tell someone to send some supplements over!"
……
Yanxi Palace.
The sun outside had already risen to the middle of the sky, and beams of light shone on the rubble of the temple, creating a golden glow.
In the hall, a chef dressed in eunuch's clothes was kneeling in front of Nanxiang. He was in a daze, distracted, and had blurry eyes. He looked sleepy, but not sleepy.
"Who instructed you to do this?"
Nanxiang asked softly.
"Mrs. Chuntao from Changshou Palace."
After hearing the eunuch's words, Nanxiang couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. It turned out that the person who made the move was not Concubine Xian, but the Queen Mother.
He is really cruel. He even attacks his own grandchildren.
Doesn't this old man even understand that even a tiger won't eat its own cubs?
When Nan Xiang thought about this, her anger grew even stronger and she could no longer suppress it.
I thought I had caught another spy of Concubine Xian, but I didn't expect it was the Empress Dowager's.
There are many details about her Yanxi Palace, including those from all the palaces.
"What did she ask you to do?"
"Let me drug the prince and princess. Let them die slowly..."
The eunuch's words made Nanxiang feel slightly suffocated. She didn't expect that Gu Chenyu's enthronement as the crown prince would have such a great impact, and things that threatened the two of them had already begun to happen.
The person who took action was the royal grandmother of the two.
How would they feel if the two knew about this? If Gu Junshen knew about this, would he punish the Queen Mother?
Nan Xiang guessed that it shouldn't happen, because no one would be willing to harm their own mother, especially Gu Junshen, a well-known filial son.
At most, I'll give her and her two children some compensation.
"So what method are you going to use?" Nan Xiang asked. She was already beginning to be curious about what methods this spy, who had been planted for nearly a year before taking effect, would use.
"Yes! Put psychotropic drugs in the water that the prince and princess drink. Cook food that can easily cause problems for children. Feed them half-cooked beans..."
After hearing this, Nanxiang couldn't help but feel scared and almost wanted to cover her ears to avoid being contaminated. However, in order to accumulate more knowledge and experience, she still listened to the end.
At the same time, she was secretly glad that even if she discovered it, if she discovered it later, it might have affected the development of the two children.
Then she looked at the eunuch in front of her with some hatred. She would not let go anyone who wanted to harm her child.
"Why do you want to do things for her?" Nan Xiang asked curiously.
"Because she promised to let me leave the palace in three years. My mother is old, and I want to go back to fulfill my filial duty."
Nanxiang just felt funny after hearing this, "Jinxiao?"
Was it obtained at the cost of the lives of others?
By doing this, aren’t you afraid that after the old man dies, he will live an uneasy life in the afterlife because of his son’s behavior?
After finding out what he wanted, Nanxiang gestured to Kikuhei, who then came in with a few eunuchs and dragged the man away.
He was dragged into the yard and poured a basin of cold water on him to wake him up.
Looking at the hostile eyes around him, he couldn't help swallowing.
He thought about how he had been with these people for more than a year and had some friendship with them. "What happened? Why am I here?"
"Why are you here? Don't you know?" Kikuhei asked with a sneer, and then took him into the hall according to Nanxiang's order.
Looking at the woman lying on the couch, looking at him as if she were a dead person, with a very indifferent and distant look, he said in a trembling voice, "Your servant greets the queen!"
"I already know about your affairs. Do you know that you have committed a capital crime?"
Nanxiang asked in a dignified tone, without any emotion and with a look of contempt.
"Slave...slave knows his mistake!"
At this time he was still a little confused, and he could no longer remember everything the other party had just told him.
However, after hearing that he had committed a capital crime, he realized in his heart that what he had done was likely known to Nan Xiang.
"Admit your mistakes? What's the point of admitting your mistakes? If admitting your mistakes is useful, your mother outside the palace won't even be able to see you for the last time."
Nanxiang sneered.
The man was stunned where he stood. He didn't expect that Nan Xiang even knew about this.
"Humph. You worked for the Queen Mother and did something improper to the princes and princesses. I already know about this. This is a capital crime. How do you want to die?"
Nanxiang raised the corners of her lips and looked at him with a smile.
The man was seen to be in a state of panic, his lips were trembling, and his face had turned pale and blue.
"I know I was wrong! I hope Your Majesty will forgive me!"
"Forgive? You attacked my child, just like someone attacked you. Will your mother choose to forgive?"
Nan Xiang immediately asked back, leaving the man speechless for a moment.
"But you still have a chance to see your mother for the last time. As long as you do to the Queen Mother what you did to the prince and princess, I will let you reunite with your mother." Nan Xiang said, and then added, "Don't think about leaking the secret! Or revealing my affairs. Your mother may have been controlled by my people at this time..."
After Nanxiang finished speaking, she covered her mouth to hide her laughter and waited for the eunuch kneeling in front of her to reply.
The eunuch in front of him was full of thoughts, but when he thought of his mother, he finally nodded.
I'll die no matter where I go, so I might as well use it to exchange for a chance to meet my mother.
"My servant is willing!"
……
Changshou Palace, before noon.
The eunuch pretended to come to report the situation and brought the news that the prince and princess had been affected.
Nanny Chuntao was delighted to hear this and rewarded him with some silver.
He did not leave, but after avoiding the sight of several people, he came to the palace kitchen and quietly sprinkled some mind-affecting powder on the meal eaten by the Queen Mother.
