In the Cining Palace, the atmosphere was so condensed that one could hardly breathe.
Most of the maids and chamberlains were dismissed by Grandma Wang as early as when the princess talked about the affairs of the British government.
Now, she and her father-in-law are the only ones left inside.
Eunuch Cao did not come in. Judging from the figure outside the curtain, he should be guarding the middle hall.
Younger's father-in-law didn't know the inside story, so he looked shocked this time, but this was by no means the time for him to speak, so he hurriedly lowered his head and stood aside respectfully.
Grandma Wang knows better.
Looking at the look on the Lord's face, she guessed that the poisonous prescription was not just the speculation of the imperial doctor, but also had conclusive evidence that it had been used on Prince Ding.
Thinking of this, Grandma Wang quietly glanced at the Queen Mother.
How sad the queen is...
But it is absolutely impossible to hide this kind of thing from the empress. The empress wants to know and must know.
Soon, the Queen Mother's voice sounded in Grandma Wang's ears.
"The British prince's daughter-in-law has been ill for eight years? Is her poison the same as A Cang's? The imperial doctor examined her in the morning and found out the clues behind it?"
After asking several questions in succession, the Empress Dowager grabbed the Holy Lord's wrist with great force, and asked the most concerned one: "Who poisoned Ah Cang?"
"Do you know this? Did Ning'an tell you?" The Holy Emperor remembered that Eunuch Cao had mentioned that the princess wanted to plead guilty to the Empress Dowager, so he said, "I will continue talking."
All the inside information was presented in front of the Queen Mother. She was extremely sad and clutched her chest.
Grandma Wang hurriedly stepped forward and stroked her back to comfort her.
The Holy Master took a cup of warm tea from Eunuch Yu's hand and let the Queen Mother moisten it after she recovered a little.
"My son is going to raid the British palace, and he plans to have people dig out Li Mi. We have to confirm whether it is him buried in the ground. He was born with six fingers on his right foot. Although it is not obvious, it is still a characteristic. The bones are easy to identify. As for Li Guna's son, he will be temporarily imprisoned in the inner palace for raising. After these cases are settled, his whereabouts will be decided." Seeing that the Queen Mother calmed down, the Holy Emperor continued to talk about his arrangements, "I'm here to discuss this with you. If you want to personally interrogate the king for six years, I'll bring him over."
The Empress Dowager smiled lightly, her smile was very weak and full of bitterness.
"It's so sudden. The Ai family really didn't expect it," her voice trembled. "The follow-up handling has been left to the Holy Spirit. Although it has been so many years, the Ai family can figure out the cause of A Cang's death and put it to bed. Things on my mind.”
"You..." The Holy One hesitated to speak.
In my memory, this was the first time the Queen Mother verbally admitted that she had doubts about the cause of King Ding's death.
After so many years, even when the incident occurred, the Empress Dowager was very restrained, so restrained that the Holy Emperor once wondered whether the Empress Dowager had never had the slightest suspicion.
"Are you surprised? The Ai family has always been worried about us," the Queen Mother sighed, looked at the face of the Holy Sage, and said, "Isn't the Holy Sage also worried about the leak of Dingguo Temple?"
The Holy Spirit did not deny it.
"The Ai family also hopes that one day we can find the answer together with the Holy One," the Empress Dowager took a few slow breaths, turned her head to the west, towards the direction of the west side hall, and said, "Ayun died there, the Ai family also wants to Give Yun Yan an answer."
It was not only Queen Xia who was in trouble that year, but also eight other people, including Shen Yun.
From the queen to the empress dowager, in the past ten years, she rarely commented on the affairs of the previous court, and only said a few words when the emperor took the initiative to ask for advice.
The Holy One was very grateful to her.
Although they are born apart, it is also the basis for their mother and son to live in harmony and have a harmonious relationship.
But now, the Holy Spirit suddenly had an idea.
At least, he and the Empress Dowager were allies regarding the Dingguo Temple matter.
Others may reach out to Dingguo Temple, but the Empress Dowager will not.
At that time, the father was seriously ill, and the eldest brother was even more sick than the father. The other brothers were watching eagerly, and the situation in the capital was changing. The empress had already worked hard just to stabilize the situation, so how could she still care about Dingguo Temple?
Furthermore, he could see how the empress treated Shen Yun and Ning'an.
"You..." Your Majesty considered the words, "I dare not say, 'Don't worry.' It has been too many years, and I am not sure that I will find the truth.
The progress in eldest brother's affairs this time was also due to chance.
Erchen can only say that he will not give up no matter what, and will try his best to find the answer. "
The Queen Mother nodded.
Compared with taking over everything and deserving more than the full moon, the Holy Sage's reserved statement made the Empress Dowager more at ease.
"The follow-up treatment, let's do it like this..." the Queen Mother said.
The Holy Emperor comforted the Queen Mother again and then stood up.
"That's right, look at the memory of the Ai family, they almost forgot important things," the Empress Dowager called to her Majesty and said, "That girl named Zhu Xiang, she has already fallen out with the British government. She is really a poor child.
Getting clues this time was also an opportunity she fought for with all her strength.
Leave a way for her, let her send her mother well and have a good future. "
Of course your Majesty will agree.
The Holy Driver left Cining Palace.
Lin Yunyan returned to the Empress Dowager.
The old man was leaning on the pillow, his brows filled with fatigue.
She waved to Lin Yunyan: "What a coincidence. Is it really such a coincidence?"
Lin Yunyan squatted down in front of Luohan's bed.
She knew early on that the Empress Dowager would be aware of the story here, not to mention that she acted through Grandma Wang.
She didn't intend to cheat, she was just waiting for an opportunity.
That's it now.
"Do you still remember?" Lin Yunyan asked softly, "Mama Ma, who you called to take care of me, used to be the female medicine officer of the Royal Pharmacy, and later worked for you.
Zhu Xiang discussed her mother's condition with me. I was curious about what kind of prescription could delay a person's illness for eight years, so I asked her to write one.
Mother Ma looked at it and found it familiar and impressive, so she recalled that His Highness Prince Ding had used it.
I couldn't help but doubt it, and I was afraid that I was overthinking it. Without conclusive evidence, I couldn't make an accurate estimate, so I asked Grandma Wang for help. Once I had the chance, I would definitely check out Zhu Xiang's mother's illness.
As a result, something happened at the Zhu family this morning.
Don’t blame Grandma Wang, I begged her..."
The Queen Mother shook her head: "What's the blame? The Ai family won't blame her, the Ai family only blames you.
Yun Yan, the Ai family knows that you are sincere, but they are afraid that they will miss the truth, and they are also afraid that they will be too eager to let the Ai family know. If they make a mistake, the Ai family will have a huge emotional ups and downs.
You were involved in this matter because of Ai Jia and Zhu Xiang, but you can't forget that you are also a half-grown girl.
Being a princess can make you tougher than others, but if you encounter someone who is really unreasonable, it doesn't matter if you are a princess.
You need to consider yourself when you act. If something unexpected happens to you, what will you do to Aijia? "
Lin Yunyan lowered her eyes and did not speak, but listened carefully.
The Empress Dowager held her hand and spoke with concern and firmness: "When something happens, please discuss it with the Ai family. The Ai family is old and their bodies are not as strong as they used to be. But the Ai family is not too old and can still handle things." .”
From the princess to the empress, and then to the empress dowager, it seems that she is moving forward steadily, but only she understands the bitterness and sorrow in it.
After working hard all her life and living until she is old, she just wants to protect her younger generation from the wind and rain, instead of letting them worry about her condition, otherwise, her life will be in vain.
Lin Yunyan gently responded "Okay".
In his heart, he shook his head.
Just as the Empress Dowager was toward her, how could she not be toward the Empress Dowager?
The old man said that she could handle things, but she was really not as mentally strong as before. After all these ups and downs, she was mentally exhausted and fell asleep.
Lin Yunyan stood up and covered the Queen Mother with a quilt. She stepped out and said to Grandma Wang, "Your Majesty is asleep. I'd better ask the imperial doctor to check for a safe pulse later. I'm afraid your Majesty will be ill for a while."
Grandma Wang glanced over her head and replied: "I'm old, this would have happened more than ten years ago..."
After that, Grandma Wang will definitely not say anything.
Not suitable.
But she knows the Queen Mother’s temperament best.
She was more than ten years young. During the reign of the late Emperor, not to mention interrogating the king's servant, the Queen Mother had to bring everyone in the British government before her eyes for questioning.
Time is really ruthless.
As Lin Yunyan expected, when the Queen Mother woke up in the evening, her body was burning hot.
The old man fell ill.
