Qiao Jianghong remained silent. Now it was he who was showing off to her, but she who was showing off to him. If he didn't go to her, I'm afraid it would be what she wanted.
An Qi'en was already committed to reconciliation. Wouldn't the situation be worse if this continued?
He didn't agree with Mrs. Qiao's idea, but he couldn't disobey his elders, so he kept silent.
Mrs. Qiao once again sowed discord and said: "The reason why the Hou Mansion is like this now is mostly due to her. Your official position was not good in the first place, but now you have become a toilet official and it has become a joke in Beijing. She has hidden all the things your Majesty has given you." Well, let me tell you, she has such a big idea, she might as well try again."
Qiao Jianghong was heartbroken, his eyes widened, and his panic reached its peak. He would not let her leave the Hou Mansion. Because of his love for En and the reputation of the two families, An Qi'en would die in the Hou Mansion!
"Grandma, is it so unforgivable for my grandson to take concubines? If she had come out to stop him, my grandson would not have taken so much!"
He was confused and confused. It was she who asked him to be nice to his aunt. She was reasonable, considerate and never jealous, but she stabbed his heart with a sword in the air and broke up.
Mrs. Qiao was too embarrassed to talk about the bastard things he did!
Block it? Even her grandmother couldn't stop his lust, let alone An Qien.
She said thoughtfully: "If you want Qi En to stay in the Hou Mansion forever, just listen to your grandmother. Don't go to her place recently, not even for meals. Over time, she will bow her head if she is ignored."
Qiao Jianghong suddenly felt enlightened and felt that what Mrs. Qiao said was reasonable: "My grandson listens to his grandmother."
Mrs. Qiao glanced at him with satisfaction, and then said: "The people from Yuhe Palace have come to send a message. Can you try to arrange some easy work for her? Yuhe Palace can't afford to offend her."
"Yes, grandma." Qiao Jianghong responded respectfully.
.....
After coming out of Anhe Hall, Qiao Jianghong stopped going to An Qien's. He couldn't bear it after holding it in for so long. It happened that Liang Wanru was out of confinement, so he went to Cunju Hall.
From then on, he returned to his true nature. Every day, his three aunts took turns to sleep with each other, and went to Ruying's room less frequently. Because she was pregnant, it seemed like it was the last time he entered the corridor, and he did not dare to treat a girl. Pregnant women act recklessly.
An Qien still lived her life leisurely every day, but she found that her legs were sore and weak after walking a few more steps.
Qingbi and Bailu also had this situation. In the past, this little journey was not a problem for them, but now the master and servant are all suffering from abnormalities in their legs!
It was only a few hundred meters from Qiushui Residence to the Garden. An Qi'en's legs were sore and weak, and she felt more and more that something was wrong.
Qingbi and Bailu also frowned helplessly. They gritted their teeth and helped An Qien go back.
Back in Qiushui, An Qi'en was sitting on the imperial concubine's couch to rest. The legs of the two maids were weak and sore, so she asked the two maids to move stools and sit in front of them.
Qingbi asked doubtfully: "Madam, is it because the weather is too hot? I have been very weak recently after walking for a long distance, and my legs are still sore."
Bai Lu echoed: "It's so strange that this slave also feels this way."
An Qien frowned and thought deeply: "Let me check your pulses."
Qingbi stepped forward first and stretched out her hand. An Qien's white hand was placed on the pulse point of her wrist. At first she couldn't find any pulse, but after careful examination for a few minutes, she found an abnormality, which was caused by poisoning!
An Qi'en looked solemn and immediately took her own pulse. It was difficult to get it at first. It is no exaggeration to say that if an ordinary doctor could not detect the pulse of their body, they would not be able to detect it.
An Qien's physical symptoms were exactly the same as Qingbi's. She took Bai Lu's pulse and found that all three of them were poisoned!
Qingbi saw that An Qien's face was not good and asked in confusion: "What's wrong, madam?"
An Qien looked solemn, with goosebumps all over his body, and his hair stood on end: "Poisoned! If this thing is discovered too late, the three of us, master and servant, will be bedridden for the rest of our lives, unable to stand up!"
Poisoned?
Qingbi and Bailu were shocked. How could they be poisoned? Every time the three of them eat something, they try it with a silver needle before eating it!
"Madam, who wants to harm you?" Bai Lu asked in horror.
Shen Shuli has been sent to Zhuangzi. Who else wants to harm An Qien?
An Qi'en's eyes deepened, and he said thoughtfully: "The prince has not come to have dinner recently. It is also during this time that our legs have changed."
She had been wondering before, thinking that Qiao Jianghong was bored because he didn't want to put his hot face against his cold butt, which had only recently made her cold.
At this time, they have problems with their legs, and the poison is slow to take effect and will only cause disability!
Who could it be! An Qien had the answer in his mind!
No wonder Mrs. Qiao doesn't look for trouble these days. This is where the problem turns out to be.
Qingbi suddenly realized and said in horror: "Old lady? Madam? Crown Prince?"
Only these three people can do it without anyone noticing.
An Qien analyzed it carefully: "My wife can't do well in housekeeping, how can she have such thoughts? The prince is simple-minded and only has a lustful heart, how can he have such a palace!"
Qiao Jianghong didn't do this, but he must have known about it, otherwise why didn't he come here during this time?
Bai Lu was horrified: "Old Madam... Young Madam, what should we do?"
An Qi'en looked indifferent. Finding out where the poison was was the most important thing at the moment. She said calmly: "It's okay if you can't detect the poison when you eat it, but that doesn't mean it's really okay. Just be more discreet and drink the food secretly." Everything I wear is checked one by one, and I still have to pretend to know nothing about it..."
"Yes." The two maids said in unison.
An Qi'en suddenly thought of something and said: "The raw materials also need to be tested. The toxicity of this thing is not easy to find out!"
"yes."
An Qien frowned and thought of a way to detoxify with a serious look on his face!
Taking medicine and brewing medicine in the Hou Mansion will definitely be discovered. She wants to catch the other party off guard, so taking the antidote cannot be done in the Hou Mansion!
She had no confidants in the house except Qingbi and Bailu. After all, it was inconvenient to do hidden things. After thinking about it, she said: "Let someone prepare the carriage. I'm afraid there is an informant from the old lady around us. We won't talk or do anything in the future." Pay attention, everyone, let’s go back to An Mansion.”
"yes."
Qingbi and Bailu rested for a while and their legs were no longer sore. After the two people prepared the carriage, they helped An Qien out.
The three of them all looked weak since they went out. An Qien deliberately said: "I've been unable to use my legs lately. It seems I'm lazy and I need to exercise more."
The mother-in-law hiding behind the wall saw this scene and immediately returned to Anhe Hall happily to resume her life.
"Old madam, the young madam's legs are getting worse day by day, and she just returned to An Mansion."
Mrs. Qiao asked thoughtfully: "Has she become suspicious?"
"No, even the silver needle can't come out. Although the young lady knows medical skills, this poison is something that the miracle doctor Dr. Fang didn't even detect the pulse before. Old madam, please relax."
