Chapter 167 Formal Showdown 1
Lianyi knew in her heart that why Rong Shijun turned from an ordinary cough to tuberculosis was due to his own contribution. Her own secret guards were very conscientious. When she drove back to the palace with these husbands and attendants, that The two volumes of scriptures also returned to Rong Shijun's dormitory.
In addition, he had not recovered before and had stayed in the dormitory for the longest time, so he was naturally affected by the scriptures the most. Secondly, the personal attendant beside him had also begun to cough at this time, but it had not turned into consumption yet.
"Mother Queen."
The eldest princess looked at her expressionless mother, and for some reason, her heart thumped.
"Are Nannan and the others okay?"
Ripple asked.
"Nanny and the others hid in the tunnel that day and were not discovered. They were also blindfolded when they came out, so they were not frightened. They are just very attached to me and my husband these days."
The eldest princess said immediately.
The eldest daughter Nannan is sensible and probably knows what happened, but after all, she didn’t see it with her own eyes, so she is still calm. Although the second son and third daughter are young, their faces were ugly at the time, and they had little animal instincts and they did not cry. No fuss, just stick to them very tightly.
"Call my daughter over and ask her to accompany me to see Rong Shijun."
"Yes, Queen Mother!"
Although she didn't know why the Queen Mother didn't mention anything about Mei Yuanzheng, the eldest princess still refrained from asking questions and asked people around her to take care of her eldest daughter Nannan.
Lianyi did not change out of her court clothes, but went directly to Rong Shijun's "Qingrong Palace" with her entourage.
"My granddaughter has met the royal grandmother!"
Nannan is wearing a lotus root pink skirt today, with a double-ring bun, and her hair accessories are very simple, just small pom-poms of the same color. She has a cute little face, as if she had been warned before she came, and her face is serious, like a little girl. Like an adult.
"My dear granddaughter, come to grandma."
Lianyi put away the serious look on his face when facing the little girl, and smiled kindly.
Nannan took two quick steps and came to the imperial grandmother who was wearing a court uniform and showing her majesty. She stretched out her little hand. After being held by her imperial grandmother, she also looked up and showed a smiling face.
Lianyi held Nannan's hand, pushed away the female officials around her, and took only the eldest princess into Rong Shijun's bedroom. Intermittent coughing came from behind the window curtain, and she seemed to hear movement. Rong Shijun asked softly:
"But He'er?"
"Father, it's me! The Queen Mother is here to see you, and she's still a daughter."
The eldest princess took a step forward and said.
"Don't get too close. Ahem, don't spread the disease to the Queen and my daughter. Ahem, don't come here recently."
Rong Shijun coughed twice after saying one word. It seemed that he was indeed seriously ill.
Lianyi didn't come close, he just sat on the chair by the window by the bed and waved to the eldest princess. The eldest princess immediately stepped forward and opened the window curtain, so that everyone could see Rong Shijun's face clearly.
Rong Shijun was wearing a white lining, with disheveled hair, a pale complexion, and sunken cheekbones. He looked lifeless. He was covering his mouth with a handkerchief and coughing. Because of the violent cough, there was something abnormal on his face. He was flushed, and when the itching in his throat stopped, he raised his head and looked at everyone.
When he saw the queen in court uniform, he felt a little nervous and stunned for some reason.
"Grandpa, how is your health? Nannan and the imperial grandmother came to see you."
Nannan's childish voice sounded, breaking the stagnant atmosphere in the room.
"Be good, grandpa is fine, he's just old. Don't get too close to grandpa, lest you get sick."
Facing his most valued granddaughter, Rong Shijun said with a gentle expression.
"Then my granddaughter will stay with you here."
Looking at Rong Shijun's face, Nannan seemed to understand a little, so she bowed and came to Lianyi's side. She leaned against the imperial grandmother obediently and looked at her father and grandfather with her big eyes.
Lianyi patted Nannan's back gently, comforted the little girl, and then said:
"Just after the morning court today, He'er came to beg the emperor to ask Meiyuan, who has retired, to come and treat your cough. I didn't reply to her at that time, so I thought it would be better to explain it to you in person."
Ripple's words made both father and daughter turn their attention to her.
"Since Mei Yuanzheng is old and she is old, don't toss her back and forth."
"Mother Queen!"
The eldest princess' face froze, and she looked at Ripple in disbelief.
"As for why Mr. Rong Shijun got this disease and what the cause is, I'm afraid only he knows best."
After hearing this, Rong Shijun even forgot to cough, and suddenly raised his eyes to look at the Queen, without even having time to cover up.
"Fengshou!"
Ripple gave a faint cry.
"My subordinate is here."
"Take the thing off."
Lianyi commanded calmly.
"yes!"
The next moment, a black figure jumped down from the beam in the room and placed two scriptures on the table next to Lianyi.
"Rong Shijun, can you recognize these two scriptures?"
When Rong Shijun saw that the two scriptures were taken down from the beams of his dormitory, he realized that it was too late.
The eldest princess's pupils shrank. She personally delivered these two scriptures to the queen. How could they appear in her father's room? She suddenly realized something and turned to look at her father.
"Why do you, Daomei Yuanzheng, retire and return home?
When these two scriptures were placed in my bedroom, Mei Yuanzheng noticed something was wrong. Although the scriptures were smelled by incense and candles, Mei Yuanzheng could still distinguish the harmful things contained in them.
This kind of thing will slowly invade people's internal organs and harm the lungs. However, if someone with poor medical skills is asked to check the pulse at first, it will be treated as an ordinary cold and cough disease, missing the best treatment time and entering the lungs. Later, it will slowly turn into tuberculosis and eventually become terminally ill. "
Anyway, Mei Yuanzheng has already retired and left the capital. Why did he discover that there was something wrong with the scriptures? Lianyip has the final say on any issues.
After her words fell, the eldest princess' legs softened and she knelt on the ground. However, Rong Shijun's face calmed down. After coughing twice, he wiped away the coughed up blood and smiled to himself. He opened his mouth and said:
"So the Queen asked Meiyuan to check my pulse, just to make sure that I had an ordinary cold or it was caused by this kind of chronic poison."
"Yes, I also found out that when you copied scriptures for me, you did so while covering your face. As for the small Buddhist temple, it is true, and it is a Buddhist temple far away from you. Three sticks of incense are used for daily prayers. It's not like the eldest princess said, you did it yourself, but the waiter next to you did it for you."
"So the Queen returned the original book to me and let me reap the consequences."
"Yes. After all, if there is news that you have committed regicide, both He'er and Nannan will lose the chance to inherit the throne."
Ripple said calmly.
These words made the eldest princess raise her head in shock, and Rong Shijun's coughing became even more urgent.
