Seeing Eunuch Gao calling to the guards behind him, he was about to take him away.
Ji Wanrong hurriedly summoned the gold ingots that were part of the dowry from the space, and took advantage of everyone's unpreparedness to secretly stuff them into the hands of the two high eunuchs.
"Wan Rong is unfamiliar with this place. In the palace, she has to rely on her father-in-law to take care of her. I dare to ask what happened to Eunuch Gao who invited me over so anxiously. This will help Wan Rong feel prepared."
Eunuch Gao shook the gold ingot in his hand. As the saying goes, don't hit someone with a smiling face. The two gold ingots were held in the palm of his hand. They were quite heavy. Looking at Ji Wanrong's respectful little face, he curled up his lips. .
"Princess, you should think about what you did the last time you entered the palace, right?"
After Eunuch Gao finished speaking, his high-pitched voice seemed to be humming from his throat.
"Don't worry that I didn't remind you. You won't be able to come back for a while after entering the palace this time. You have to report to Prince Han in the military camp."
When Ji Wanrong heard that Eunuch Gao had leaked the news, he didn't have time to think about it. He hurriedly followed his instructions and asked Siqin to go to the military camp to inform Mojie City.
As for herself, she took the palace carriage and was escorted into the palace by the guards.
The sun has not yet risen, and the sunlight cannot shine through the curtains. The dark curtains cover the entire carriage, making it gloomy and dull.
The carriage was dark, and Ji Wanrong was swaying as he sat in it, but he was thinking about the meaning of Eunuch Gao's words.
The things he did last time were nothing more than healing the Queen Mother and making a bet with Concubine Hua.
If something were to happen, it would be something happening to the Queen Mother.
Ji Wanrong felt a little confused, thinking over and over again whether there was anything wrong with the last treatment. After he was convinced that all his methods were correct, he felt strangely calm again.
The matter was urgent, and the guards in the palace were very fast, and they arrived at the gate of the palace in a short time.
Ji Wanrong changed the sedan chair at the entrance of the palace, and clearly saw the sedan chair heading towards the Queen Mother's Palace.
The sedan carriage stopped soon. Ji Wanrong looked at the silent palace, shook the hand of Jian Qing beside him, calmed down, and then walked in.
When Ji Wanrong's footsteps finally crossed the threshold, Jian Qing's gentle voice sounded in his ears.
"Master, don't be afraid. If Siqin is not around, I will protect you."
Ji Wanrong turned his head and looked at Jian Qing's face.
The sun had already risen at this time, and the morning glow stretched across the sky. The sunlight happened to shine on Jian Qing's face, illuminating her whole body with warmth.
Ji Wanrong saw the fear in her eyes, smiled at her, and crossed the threshold again.
There were many people gathered in the Queen Mother's Palace. The Emperor, Queen, Concubine Hua, and Princess Duan were all sitting in the Queen Mother's Palace with solemn expressions. However, they were not sleeping inside, but sitting outside.
Ji Wanrong stepped forward and bowed, but felt a little strange in his heart.
"My son, I have met my father, my mother, and my concubine Hua Guifei."
If the Queen Mother was sick, she would be summoned into the palace urgently, but the Emperor was sitting outside with no worry on his face, but with hidden anger, as if he was waiting for her.
The emperor's majestic voice sounded in front of her: "Princess Han, get up."
Ji Wanrong stood up with his head lowered. Before she could ask what happened today, the emperor had already spoken preemptively.
"I summoned you here today, but there is a question. I don't know if you recognize this thing."
The emperor said calmly and waved to the servants beside him, but his eagle-like eyes were fixed on Ji Wanrong's face.
The little eunuch quickly presented the tray in front of her.
The wooden tray was covered with a yellow cloth, and the yellow cloth seemed to be painted with blood in the shape of a talisman, as if it was suppressing something.
When the little eunuch slowly opened the yellow cloth, Ji Wanrong saw what was inside clearly, but his eyes suddenly shrank and his heart was shocked.
There was a small piece of bone in the tray. The bones had turned white, and there were some spells written on them with black paint that Ji Wanrong couldn't understand.
The spell was extremely strange, as if it was contaminated with evil spirits, making people feel chilling.
Ji Wanrong quickly raised his head and spoke decisively to the emperor: "Your Majesty, my daughter-in-law does not know this thing!"
But when the emperor heard this, he suddenly smiled. He slowly stood up from the chair and walked towards Ji Wanrong step by step.
The queen looked solemn but bit her lip, while Concubine Hua hurriedly shouted: "Your Majesty, be careful!"
It was as if the Ji Wanrong in front of him was some kind of savage beast.
"But I think your reaction seems to be that you recognize the thing in front of you. Is this thing yours?"
The emperor did not respond to Concubine Hua's words, but after taking a few steps, he cautiously stopped without approaching Ji Wanrong.
Ji Wanrong has studied medicine since she was a child and has a clear understanding of the bones and structure of the human body. She naturally knows what they are.
These are human bones!
It's human skull fragments!
Ji Wanrong couldn't understand the words on the skull, but thought it was probably a spell.
Practicing curse language.
Someone wants to use witchcraft to harm her!
When Ji Wanrong thought of this, she could even feel sticky sweat seeping out from her forehead. She slowly raised her head and looked at the emperor calmly.
"My daughter-in-law is proficient in medical skills and can recognize that the thing in front of her is human bones, but her daughter-in-law has never seen this thing before, and she doesn't know what the words on it mean."
As soon as Ji Wanrong's words came out, the entire palace fell silent, but after just one breath, the emperor burst out laughing.
"Yes, you are proficient in medical skills. But when did you become proficient in medical skills? I remember that the daughter-in-law of Nanyang Marquis Mansion was stupid since she was a child. Not only did she not understand poetry and writing, she also had no knowledge of medical skills."
"Ji Wanrong, are you using medical skills or witchcraft? What did you do to my queen mother to make her unconscious and the medicine and stone ineffective?"
The thunderous fury in the emperor's words made all the maids and palace maids present kneel down in fear. The Queen and Concubine Hua also knelt down.
The Queen Mother is unconscious and the medicine is ineffective?
Ji Wanrong's eyelids twitched. She knew she should kneel, but she did not. Instead, she slowly raised her head and looked directly at the emperor.
There were only two people standing in the huge palace.
"In the past, the Queen Mother was treated by her daughter-in-law. The Queen Mother said that her daughter-in-law was her lucky star. If something happened to her, her daughter-in-law would definitely be suspected. There is no one in the world who wants the Queen Mother to be healthy more than her daughter-in-law!"
Ji Wanrong felt the emperor's anger all over his body. The anger swept over him and made everyone in the hall tremble in their calves.
But she still said it sincerely, word by word: "If the Queen Mother is unconscious at this moment, someone must have deliberately tried to harm the Queen Mother, and by the way, her daughter-in-law. I sincerely ask Your Majesty to allow your daughter-in-law to go for diagnosis!"
"You harmed the Queen Mother once, do you want to harm the Queen Mother a second time in front of His Majesty?" Before the Emperor could speak, Concubine Hua spoke before the Emperor.
"You dare to perform witchcraft on the Queen Mother and revive her to prove your medical skills. Otherwise, you will use witchcraft to blind all of us! Otherwise, why did it take so long to get married, but King Han, who used to hate you, has nothing to do with it? I realize that if I am hurt, I will naturally not be afraid, but if I am hurt by His Majesty..."
"You, you, Ji Wanrong, you really followed the Taoist priests' advice three times and are a disaster! You should have been burned to death since you were born!"
