It was related to His Highness Prince Ding, even Grandma Wang couldn't help but turn pale.
No wonder the county magistrate wants to investigate.
No wonder the princess refused to inform the empress before she was sure.
"There was something wrong with Your Highness's original prescription?" Grandma Wang's voice became thin and thin, "Could it be that Your Highness called someone..."
The next words she dared not turn into words came out from between her lips and teeth.
Lin Yunyan held her hand and said: "Back then, was your Majesty ever suspicious?"
Grandma Wang closed her eyelids heavily.
The meaning is clear.
The Queen Mother had doubts.
"There's no proof," said Grandma Wang. "At that time, during the consultation at the Tai Hospital, if there was anything, one person couldn't tell, and the two couldn't tell either.
No one saw it, and no matter what the empress was thinking, she would never talk about it.
I don’t know where the princess got the recipe from, but you are right. It’s better to keep it a secret until you find out the accurate information.
Your Majesty's body is precious and she may not be able to withstand the ups and downs. "
After saying that, she said to Mother Ma: "Just go to the Royal Pharmacy and I will explain everything."
Throughout the afternoon, Lin Yunyan accompanied the Empress Dowager in the Cining Palace.
Mother Ma arrived at the Royal Pharmacy.
The waiter opened the warehouse door for her, and Grandma Ma moved a handful of spoons and sat in front of a high shelf, taking down the relevant old files and looking through them.
As the sun set, the waiter asked through the door: "Do you need to light a candle?"
"That's almost it. No need to bother."
Two-quarters of an hour ago, Grandma Ma had found the recipe she wanted.
After remembering it in her mind, she was not in a hurry to leave, and went through several files from different years and palaces.
Dust is knocked away and easy to clean.
In this way, even if someone comes into the warehouse, they will not know what she is looking at.
Mother Ma returned to Cining Palace.
Grandma Wang pulled her aside to talk: "Did you gain anything?"
"When His Highness was seriously ill, the Queen asked me to go over and prepare medicine for His Highness. I still remember it somewhat," said Mother Ma. "I remember it correctly. The prescription I'm reading today is indeed the same as what Your Highness used at that time." The prescription for thirteen days is quite different.
Sister, do you still remember? During that time, His Highness was already unconscious.
At that time, I was muttering that this prescription was too common, but I heard several imperial doctors discussing that His Highness's condition might not be cured, and this prescription would barely keep him alive.
What they said is indeed correct. After thirteen days, a new prescription was replaced, and in just two days, His Highness..."
Grandma Wang was recalling and listening, and she was surprised when she heard this: "You mean, if you continue to use that recipe, His Highness might be able to survive?"
Thinking of Mrs. Zhu Si's condition, Mother Ma shook her head: "I only have breath left. I can't wake up, I can't move, it's very painful."
Grandma Wang put her hands together and recited the Buddha's name.
It sounds like she is alive, but if it really turns out to be like that, can the empress really be happy facing His Highness who is in pain every day?
I wish I could replace it with my own body!
But he couldn't replace him, so he could only watch his son suffer.
I don't dare to cruelly let him die, but I don't want to let him suffer. This feeling...
"The imperial medical officer who prescribed this prescription that day is named Mao." Mother Ma said.
Grandma Wang was very impressed by the imperial doctor: "He has already aged a few years ago. He was born in Lingnan. It would be thousands of miles away to find him."
"I'm thinking of finding an old lady doctor," said Mother Ma. "If the cause of Your Highness's illness is really weird, then ask the old lady doctor to follow this life-threatening prescription and deduce what it is, what kind of poison, and what kind of poison it is. Your Highness’ illness can be managed with this prescription.”
"It is indeed an idea," Grandma Wang thought for a while, "Master An, the court judge, can let him try it."
The two talked softly.
Lin Yunyan came out of the main hall and heard Granny Ma briefly explain the results.
"Princess, where did you get this recipe?" Grandma Wang was really worried.
If it was not related to His Highness, she would not ask more questions.
The most important thing to do in this palace is unnecessary curiosity.
But it happened to be His Highness Prince Ding...
Lin Yunyan lowered her eyes and said: "The fourth lady of the British government has been hanged by this recipe for eight years."
Grandma Wang was stunned.
She had indeed heard about Mrs. Zhu Si earlier, but she had never thought about it.
"Are you saying that she and His Highness may have been hit by the same thing?" Grandma Wang said.
"Her initial symptoms were not exactly the same as what I heard about Your Highness's condition at that time. It seems that there may be a difference in dosage," Lin Yunyan said. "I just thought that since this possibility exists, I would conduct more in-depth investigations. check."
Grandma Wang said: "I don't talk about prescriptions, I just talk about actions. Those who can scheme against His Highness must be from the palace."
Lin Yunyan chose the "godfather's chamberlain" as the person.
At present, this person is related to Zhu Cheng and was born in the palace.
"What do you think of Li Mi?" Lin Yunyan asked.
I hadn't heard this name for many years, and Grandma Wang was in a daze for a moment.
"Your Royal Highness..." Grandma Wang opened her mouth, only to realize that it was inappropriate to call Li Mi that way, "The princess guessed that he was behind the scenes?
In Nunu's opinion, it's unlikely.
He is not the kind of person who is calculating and roundabout, he is very direct.
To put it bluntly, he is brave and foolhardy. If he really knows how to use his mind, he will not be demoted to a commoner at all.
His mother-in-law and concubine left early, his maternal family was not prominent, and his in-laws' family was ordinary, so no one could give him advice behind his back.
It's just that he was so clueless. The late emperor was already angry because of the matter of grabbing credit. After his death, His Highness said something that was not true, which completely disgusted the late emperor.
With his kind of temperament, he might not be able to see it even if someone else is placed as a dead soldier around him. "
Such words, given Grandma Wang's identity and position, are naturally overstepping her bounds.
But she knew that if she wanted to trace the past, someone would have to tell the princess some accurate information.
"You should investigate and be cautious," Grandma Wang warned. "Although he has been driven out of the capital long ago, it has been more than ten years since the Holy Emperor ascended the throne. All old things will return to dust and dust to dust." , but after all, the matter is serious, if something is involved and you step on the mud, although the queen will pull you, she will feel uncomfortable in her heart."
When we left the palace, the lights were brightly lit.
In the yamen of Shuntian Mansion, Shan Shen was leaning on the big chair, with a look of exhaustion on his face.
"Old, old!" He sighed lowly.
But because he hadn't rested well in the past few days and had to deal with some personnel matters during the day, he couldn't keep up his energy.
Ten years ago, this would not have been the case.
Thinking of this, he glanced at Xu Jian sitting on the other side.
An oil lamp was lit on the table, and under the warm yellow light, Duke Fu did not feel any tiredness.
Fuguo Gong is not as relaxed as him today.
Zhu Cheng was detained in the Yamen. How could the British government not respond at all?
The British Duke did not show up, but Zhu Cheng's three brothers came to the Yamen several times.
The case was clear. The Zhu family did not quarrel or make any fuss. They only said that if the Li family was found guilty of negligence, they should compensate the Li family three or four times the amount of money. However, Zhu Cheng should be moved back to the mansion to recuperate first.
Shan Shen refused, but he was several levels below others, and he only had the strength to hold on and not give in.
Fortunately, there was a statue of Bodhisattva sitting in the yamen, and Duke Fu Guo rejected all the requests from the Zhu family.
Of course, despite his status, he was a bit younger, and in Shan Shen's opinion, it was quite difficult to deal with it.
After all the hard work, I feel so energetic at the moment.
It is indeed good to be young.
Under the lamp, Xu Jian closed the case file and glanced at Shan Shen: "Sir Shan, we need to dig out some more information from Zhu Cheng as soon as possible.
The British prince's brothers have returned home in vain. If the British prince himself comes in a few days, I won't be able to stop them so hard.
Respect the old and love the young. If I say something harsh, he might go to the imperial court and scold me. "
Shan Shen didn't want to have long nights and many dreams, but the words "respecting the elderly and loving the young" sounded weird.
Huh.
There are so many messy cases in Shuntian Mansion, and the virtues of conducting oneself seem so unfamiliar.
It seems that when I have free time, I still need to read more from the sages.
Just recite it to children, it’s all about the principles of life.
I still owe an additional chapter of 10,000 coins, so please give me some time and try to make it up as soon as possible.
