Zi Daan did not stay in Jinting Immortal Temple for a few days. A few days later, an official and a nun from the Jin Palace came to her and asked her if she would change her name and join the palace to serve her.
When Ziqian saw the people coming to the Jin Palace, she seemed to be grasping at straws. She knelt down in front of them and cried, saying that as long as His Highness still cherished their old relationship, she would be willing to serve His Highness as a cow and a horse for the rest of her life.
She followed the palace's carriage, changed her name to Zi Yuan'er, and became a prostitute in the Jin Palace.
When Ye Lutang was reading the Bible, he felt extremely restless. The life experience she was forced to go through in her previous life was almost completely taken over by Zi Daan. Zi Daan seems to have become her substitute in this life.
"It's really your own fault!" Su Su couldn't help it anymore. She sat next to Lutang and scolded Zi Yun in a low voice for being ignorant: "Miss Third, it's obvious that she lived a confused life and ended up like this. She has the nerve to blame her. The second young lady? Someone came to pick her up from the Jin Palace today, and the young lady also gave her a lot of the second wife's property as a dowry. The young lady repaid her with kindness, but she didn't appreciate it at all. "
Lutang looked at the scriptures without saying a word, while Ling'er whispered from the side: "I heard from others that the Jin Palace has many domestic prostitutes. They usually entertain the officials in the palace or win over important officials in the court. The third lady's daughter, She was cheated by the King of Jin, and now she is being used as a prostitute and given to others to be raped. Such an animal thing is really despicable."
Xiao Yuanhui is a prince, but he is extremely unlucky to the women around him. Whether it was a concubine, a concubine, or a concubine, they were all disposable playthings in his eyes, and he had no regard for honor and dignity when he manipulated them.
Lutang lowered his head and thought about it. Back then, he had the intention of raping her first and then marrying her. He secretly communicated with Wen Hongyao and imprisoned her in the garden to play with her.
Later, he even molested Zi Yun in public without any shame. Even after Zi Yun became pregnant, he still did not restrain himself and did not treat her as a darling daughter at all.
Today, when he was practicing Wen Hong Yao, he was actually in the palace, in front of Concubine Chen and the princess, and killed Wen Hong Yao without any scruples.
Thinking again about the two fiancées who died young when he was young. It seemed that all the wives and concubines around him had no good end.
This is related to his ruthlessness, but it also has some surprising feelings.
In the early morning of the second day, Lutang wandered around the library in Jintingxianguan. In addition to the Taoist classics, there are also some other records here.
Lutang took out a few books at random and read them. It turned out that seven or eight years ago, the envoy from Beiyan came to the capital and brought the tribute girls to pay homage to the Holy Emperor. The tribute girl "Chen" in the record was the later Concubine Chen.
She suddenly remembered what happened to Concubine Chen yesterday, so she took the records and went downstairs to the library and looked at the sun carefully. At first glance, I couldn't help but be surprised.
The person who went to Beiguan to greet the Beiyan envoy was none other than King Xiao Yuanhui of Jin! The record also specifically states that when the Beiyan envoy arrived at Beiguan, due to bad weather, there was a plague in Beiguan, and both the envoys, deputy envoys and tribute girls were sick and stranded. The entire mission rested in Beiguan for a month before setting off for the capital.
Seven or eight years ago, Lutang's parents took her to live in Youzhou, which was very close to Beiguan. In her impression, there were no epidemics near Beiguan at that time.
The mission stayed for a month, and Xiao Yuanhui, who greeted the mission, had no record of traveling to and from the capital. It seems that he stayed in Beiguan with the mission for a whole month.
No wonder, he and Concubine Chen were the same party in the previous life, and they must have met when she came to Beijing with the mission.
Lutang saw this clearly, put the records back in the library, and came downstairs thoughtfully.
"Miss, the medical girl Miss Bai is here." Su Su came to the door of the library to report.
Lutang has nothing to do these days. She has transplanted the original medicinal garden in the Hou Mansion into the Xianguan Garden, but she still needs some medicinal seeds.
Xiao Yuanzhen was very concerned about this, and specially sent the palace doctor girl to help her select some valuable medicinal materials.
The medical girl Bai is in her twenties and has a calm and sophisticated manner. She brought some medicinal materials that Lutang had mentioned and chose them for her.
Lutang chatted with her while choosing medicine. Bai Shi is the medical lady in the palace. She has a very strict reputation and never mentions the illnesses of the nobles in the palace.
But while chatting, Lutang obviously felt that she was extremely interested in anti-carbuncle drugs, and this drug was used on children.
"Miss Bai, forgive me for speaking frankly. As for anti-carbuncle medicines, turmeric and panax notoginseng are excellent, but they are not suitable for children. It is better to try Millet Spatholobus and Salvia miltiorrhiza. It has miraculous effects on children's anti-carbuncle." Lutang said with a smile. .
Mrs. Bai pursed her lips and smiled, then paused and said: "It seems that the princess is not wrong, the master of Jinting is a famous doctor. To be honest, although Millet Spatholobi and Salvia miltiorrhiza are good for treating carbuncle in children, I can't use them." Because the patient’s Qi and blood are not coagulated, the bleeding is likely to stop.”
Lu Tang had a thought in her mind and had no choice but to ask: "Does the little prince in the palace have a problem with blood not coagulating?"
Seeing that she had guessed it, Mrs. Bai could only sigh: "Since you guessed it, I won't hide it anymore. The little prince was born prematurely and had congenital deficiencies. His blood has not coagulated since he was a child, so he has to be extremely careful. .”
"Oh?" Lutang asked casually in confusion: "Do the Holy Emperor and Concubine Chen also have this disease?"
Bai shook his head and said, "Sir, you don't have this symptom."
Although the two of them were chatting, they both felt that they had talked too much, so they had to smile awkwardly. Mrs. Bai put down the medicines she had been sent, and said that she still had errands in the palace, so she bowed and left.
When Lutang got the news about her, she felt extremely uneasy.
Her mother has been studying the disease of non-coagulable blood since she was young. It took a year or two to compile a book about the people who had this disease in Youzhou, and it was discovered that this disease is passed down from father to son.
This disease in children is by no means caused by premature birth and congenital defects. It is most likely passed on to him by his father.
She clearly remembered that in her previous life, Jin Wang Xiao Yuanhui had this disease!
Neither the Holy Emperor nor Concubine Chen has this symptom, nor does Qi King Xiao Yuanmu. It happened that the little prince born to Xiao Yuanhui and Concubine Chen had this problem.
After Concubine Chen entered the palace, she gave birth to a boy eight months later and was granted the title of Concubine. From this point of view, I am afraid that the father of the little prince is most likely Xiao Yuanhui!
When Lutang knew the secret, his heart was beating wildly.
If Concubine Chen really had an affair with Jin Wang Xiao Yuanhui, she might have done it deliberately when she broke up the meeting between Riwen Hongyao and Xiao Yuanhui in the palace.
Prince Xiao Yuanhui is the supreme prince, and it would be extremely difficult for Lutang to kill him for revenge. If this matter is exposed, it will definitely give Xiao Yuanhui a fatal blow.
Concubine Chen has been favoring the prince since she entered the palace, and has been fighting against the queen and the prince for a long time. It seems that this matter must be dealt with from the Queen in order to benefit.
With a thought in Lutang's mind, she immediately turned around and took out her mother's medical records and an ancient medical book from the previous generation.
For two days and one night, she integrated her mother's records of coagulation with ancient books and wrote a brand new medical book.
I took an antique name based on the medical skills of my predecessors. Lutang prepared the book and some medicinal materials, and when the medical woman Bai came back with Xiao Yuanzhen, she handed the book to her.
"If Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess wants to cancel her engagement with the Yan family, why doesn't she ask the Queen for help?" Lutang asked while serving tea.
"This matter was decided by the emperor's brother, and the emperor's sister-in-law is naturally in charge of everything. What can she say?" Xiao Yuanzhen can only put his last treasure on the lunar eclipse on the ninth day of October.
Lutang thought for a moment, pointed to the medical book in Bai's hand and said: "This book contains prescriptions and records for treating blood-qi non-coagulable diseases. My daughter found it extremely useful after reading it."
Bai Shi also said to Xiao Yuanzhen: "Master Jin Ting is very knowledgeable in medicine and pharmacology. The medicine instructions she gave to my daughter last time were also very suitable for the little prince's illness."
Xiao Yuanzhen suddenly realized that Lutang's words did not match the words at the end, and he asked in surprise: "The little prince is the child of the imperial concubine. He only suffered from congenital defects because he competed with the empress for favor, which led to miscarriage."
When Lutang heard her talking about this, she couldn't help but raise her eyes and glance at Bai. Bai quickly stepped back. Lutang smiled calmly and said, "I heard that His Highness the King of Jin also has this disease."
When Xiao Yuanzhen heard this, he couldn't help but turn his eyes and looked at Lutang in confusion.
Lutang lowered his eyes and said: "I dare not say anything about this matter. If the eldest princess feels that the information is useful, why not go back and ask a close doctor to explain and discuss it. If it is useful, you can report it to the Queen. If the Queen finds out the truth, she will definitely I will respond to Her Royal Highness the Princess’s requests.”
Xiao Yuanzhen is a very smart person. He already understood the reason at this point and couldn't help but sneered: "If this matter is true, it will be a major event that will shock the world. Are you sure?"
Lutang thought: "Back then, Concubine Chen gave birth to a child early, and no one in the hospital raised any objections. Now seven or eight years have passed, how can the ministers dare to mention the word "confidence" after hearing about the incident? But the little prince and the King of Jin suffer from the same problem. This disease is actually the case. The eldest princess may be able to take a chance on it."
Xiao Yuanzhen looked back at the medical woman and said thoughtfully: "Now that things have come to this, I naturally want to take a gamble. What you said just now is that Concubine Chen gave birth to a baby before the first term, and no one in the Imperial Hospital has any objections. What you said is wrong. Not long after she gave birth, a doctor from the Imperial Hospital died violently, and the assistant doctor was blamed. His Majesty was angry that the Imperial Hospital failed to take good care of her pregnancy, causing the little prince to be born prematurely. The doctor Bai just now is the daughter of Imperial Doctor Bai. "
I see!
With these things piled up together, it seems that there must be something fishy about this matter!
Xiao Yuanzhen and Lutang had discussed it at Jinting Immortal Temple, and Xiao Yuanzhen immediately returned to the palace.
Lutang checked the medical classics again and put together the records of this matter in many classics.
After finishing these things, it was already late at night. Only then did she remember that she had not seen Qi Wang Xiao Yuanmu for several days. So Susu was ordered to get up early tomorrow and go out to bring a message to King Qi, saying that he had important matters to discuss face to face.
In the early morning of the next day, before she got up, Ling'er went to the bedside and told her: "The news of the inn has reached the capital. Lord Wen Hou has died on the way to exile."
When his uncle passed away, Lutang just replied lightly, "I understand." Ling'er added, "In Prime Minister Yan's residence, the eldest lady's illness has become even more serious."
