[Quick Wear] Daily Cleansing of Trash

Chapter 526 The Queen is Crazy 10

Adhering to the principle of being more cautious than wrong, Mu Chong began to investigate Concubine Hui and her natal family, the Liu family, but there would be no results for a while.

Du Jingru became wary of Concubine Hui and paid close attention to the Qionghua Palace.

The weather is getting hotter and the sun is getting stronger. Only in the early morning and evening can we feel a little cool.

Du Jingru was too impatient to go out and bask in the sun, so she simply hid in the palace and slept every day.

In order to enjoy the ice, she found an opportunity to grab Jiayi and gave him a recipe for making ice using an ancient method.

Although Du Jingru changed her clothes, the words on her chest became "explosion", and she also adjusted the voice changer to that of Big Fat Orange, Jia Yi still recognized her at a glance.

"Thank you very much for the cowpox prescription, my dear gentleman!" Jia bowed deeply to her.

Du Jingru waved her hand and said, "This recipe was not invented by me. I'm just a porter." Then she was about to slip away.

Jiayi quickly called out to him, "Righteous man, our master wants to see you. I wonder if you can..."

Du Jingru: "No, I don't want to. I'm leaving!"

Without waiting for Jia to say anything more, Du Jingru flew into the shadows.

A1:......

"Forget it," Mu Chong sighed after hearing Jia Yi's reply, "If you're not happy about it, forget it!"

Although Mu Chong was interested in her talent, he didn't want to force her since she didn't want to accept his offer. So he changed the subject: "Tell me, what's going on with Concubine Hui?"

Jia Yi lowered his head and said, "A third-class maid named Xue'er in Concubine Hui's palace has a close relationship with Jincai, the deputy steward of the inner court. This afternoon, Jincai gave a packet of medicine powder to Xiaohong, a maidservant beside Princess Chaoyuan, who then gave it to Juxiu, a maidservant in the Huicao Palace. I ordered someone to take some."

As he spoke, Jiayi took out a small paper bag from his arms.

Mu Chong called his trusted imperial physician, who ran to the side with a small paper bag, looked at it, smelled it, and even put some in his mouth, smashing it and studying it intently.

It took a while for the other party to figure out what it was.

"Your Majesty, if I'm not mistaken, this is the secret medicine of the previous dynasty, 'Xu Yun San,'" the imperial physician reported, kneeling on the ground. "A woman who takes this medicine will become pregnant as soon as she has sex with a man. However, a child conceived with this medicine is doomed to die. By May, or at the latest, June, the woman will miscarry."

Mu Chong tapped his fingers on the table one by one, and light tapping sounds echoed in the room.

Jiayi and the imperial physician knelt on the ground, lowered their heads and dared not say a word.

After a long moment, Mu Chong chuckled, "What a wolfish ambition!"

…………

"What? Concubine Rong is pregnant?"

Du Jingru, who was lazily lying in a rocking chair, jumped up after hearing the news.

She touched her chin and felt that Mu Chong was still too idle.

Xia He looked at Du Jingru cautiously and said comfortingly, "Your Majesty, even if Concubine Rong is pregnant, she can't surpass you..."

Du Jingru was amused by this. She pinched Xia He's face, then lay back on the chair, swaying with her feet.

In the original plot, Mu Qing was involved in Concubine Rong's miscarriage and was sent out of the palace by Mu Chong.

Now, I wonder whether the baby in Rong Fei's belly can be born safely.

No matter what, Du Jingru would not let Mu Qing get close to her.

There was a festive atmosphere in Huicao Palace.

Rong Fei sat on the couch, carefully touching her belly which was not yet visible, her heart filled with the joy of becoming a mother.

Juxiu came in with some sliced ​​cantaloupe: "My Queen, have some cantaloupe to moisten your mouth!"

Rong Fei picked up a piece of melon with a silver fork and took a bite: "Hmm... This melon is good!"

Juxiu smiled and said, "This is a special gift from the Imperial Palace. The eunuch who brought the melons said that, besides the ones from the Emperor's Palace, the melons from our Huicao Palace are the best!"

Rong Fei was delighted to hear this, and said with a smug look on her face: "They are sensible!"

Juxiu flattered him a few more times before lowering her head.

In the days that followed, the things that the inner court gave to Huicao Palace were always the first among the concubines in the harem. Du Jingru's Zhiluo Palace and Huifei's Qionghua Palace received things of lower rank than Huicao Palace.

Mu Chong has few women and few children, so Rong Fei is pregnant, which is very precious.

Du Jingru could understand that the people from Zhiluo Palace were being detained and should not approach Huicao Palace unless necessary.

Oh, and don't come near if anything happens.

However, it was one thing for the concubines in the palace, but Du Jingru was a little surprised that the inner court dared to treat Mu Qing, a legitimate princess, in this way.

"Aunt, Concubine Rong is going too far. She really thinks she's some noble person!" Mu Qing was furious. "Those servants in the inner court are so snobbish. How dare they fool me with junk!"

Ten baskets of lychees were presented as tribute from the south. After a long journey to the capital, only one basket was left.

Mu Chong didn't like to eat this, so he asked the inner court to distribute it.

Therefore, the people in the inner court picked out ten of the largest, reddest and freshest lychees and sent them to Huicao Palace, and selected the rest and prepared to send them to other people.

Mu Qing's maid Bai Zhi went to the inner palace to get something and saw it. She went back and complained to Mu Qing, who immediately exploded.

"Bai Zhi said that the people in the inner court said that Concubine Rong is precious now, so naturally she should choose the best things." Mu Qing gulped down a cup of tea, angrily, "What do they mean by this? Only Concubine Rong is a treasure, and the rest of us are just trash?"

Du Jingru touched her chin and asked, "Have you gone to your father to complain?"

Hearing this, Mu Qing felt even more aggrieved.

She pouted: "Father told me not to bother with her and to stay away from her..."

The implication is, forget it.

Du Jingru frowned, feeling something was wrong.

She knew how important Mu Qing was to Mu Chong. How could Mu Chong sacrifice his own daughter for the sake of Concubine Rong and the unborn child?

There is a problem, there must be a problem!

Could it be that Mu Chong wanted to use Rong Fei's pregnancy to set up some scheme?

Can the baby in Rong Fei's belly be born?

She looked at Mu Qing's innocent appearance and worried that the girl would be dragged into this again, so she took Mu Qing's hand and said, "Princess, let's not argue with her. It's hot today, why don't you talk to the emperor and ask him to let us go to the imperial manor to escape the heat?"

Mu Qing became interested: "Okay, just the two of us, without those annoying people!"

Mu Qing takes action and is worth two people at once.

Mu Chong guessed that there really was some arrangement, and he agreed to Mu Qing's proposal without hesitation.

When Mu Qing suggested taking Du Jingru along, he agreed.

"Shu Fei is crazy and uncontrollable. It's better to send her away." Mu Chong looked at Jia Yi, "Go and tell Shen Ma to take Xiao Hong with you when you arrange the entourage."

Nanny Shen is Mu Qing's wet nurse and is loyal to Mu Qing.

"Yes." Jia Yi accepted the order.

Concubine Rong was envious of Du Jingru and Mu Qing for leaving the palace to escape the summer heat.

Pregnant women are afraid of heat, and summer is particularly unbearable. They have to change clothes several times a day.

But her belly was getting bigger day by day, and Rong Fei was afraid something might happen, so in the end she could only watch Du Jingru and others leave.
