Story of Yanxi Palace: Fu Ying's banner will never fall

“Not only that, afterwards, Your Majesty, you can also ask the people in the Fucha Mansion to find a few skilled folk doctors to enter the palace for you. The only thing you need to note is that these people must be loyal to Your Majesty.” Wei Yingluo continued.

"Yingluo, Yingluo, you are so considerate."

The Queen was very satisfied, her heart overflowing with gratitude towards Wei Yingluo. She held Wei Yingluo's hands tightly and praised her with joy.

"Yonglian should also thank Sister Yingluo. If it weren't for Sister Yingluo's extraordinary alertness, I'm afraid my life would be in danger."

Yong Lian's eyes were burning, and he wished he could get up from his sickbed immediately and bow deeply to Wei Yingluo to express his gratitude.

Wei Yingluo quickly grabbed Yonglian.

"Second Prince! This is all my responsibility, you don't have to worry about it. From now on, you just need to do your best. Only by protecting yourself first, you will have enough ability to protect the Queen in the future."

Then, Wei Yingluo added worriedly: "Although this 'poisoning' was just a pretense, it is inevitable that the prince will still suffer some damage to his body after taking the drug that pretends to be poisoned. After experiencing such torture of vomiting and diarrhea, he must be carefully recuperated. Queen, please give this conditioning prescription to someone that the prince trusts to boil on time."

After saying this, Wei Yingluo took out the prescription she had prepared long ago from her bosom and carefully presented it to the Queen.

The Queen took the prescription and replied softly, "Well, Yingluo, you have worked so hard. Let Yonglian's attendant Gao Wen do it."

Just as he finished speaking, Er Qing, who had just returned from the Imperial Hospital to get medicine, happened to step into the hall.

"Erqing, you must have been tired after traveling all the way. Give the medicine to me, and you and Mingyu will go back to Changchun Palace to rest first. Yingluo is with you here, so you don't have to worry."

The queen looked at Erqing tenderly with a faint smile on her lips.

Although Er Qing was extremely reluctant, she still bowed respectfully and then quietly left the palace.

On the way back, Erqing chatted with Mingyu as they walked.

At first, Erqing held Mingyu's hand affectionately, and the two seemed extremely close.

Although Wei Yingluo once reminded Mingyu to be careful of Erqing's possible ulterior motives, Mingyu, who got along well with Erqing at this moment, did not take these words to heart.

Seeing Mingyu in a good mood, Erqing took the opportunity to ask tentatively: "Mingyu, when did you know about what happened to the Second Prince today? You actually led people to catch the criminal in person, which is really amazing!"

There was deep envy in his words.

As expected, the innocent Mingyu took the bait without any preparation, and she answered with great interest.

"Oh, it was Yingluo who told me! She seemed to be able to predict the future. She asked me to bring people to wait in the tea room of the prince's residence in advance, saying that a suspicious person would definitely show up at that time."

Mingyu told him everything like beans pouring out of a bamboo tube.

"How could Yingluo be so foresighted? Not only can she see through everything, but she can also grasp the timing accurately... We have always been by the Second Prince and the Queen's side, serving them attentively for so many years, but we know nothing about this..."

Er Qing sighed with pretended emotion.

Er Qing intentionally pits herself against Mingyu and Wei Yingluo, wanting Mingyu to feel that Wei Yingluo is outdoing her in every way.

Mingyu curled her lips but said nothing. She thought to herself: Judging from the time we've been together, Yingluo is not that kind of person.

But... the queen really obeys her now, and doesn't even allow herself and Erqing to serve her.

"Mingyu, if this continues, the Queen will no longer trust us. What should we do?"

Seeing that Mingyu remained silent, Erqing became even more aggressive in spreading rumors.

"Oh, how is that possible! The Queen loves us the most. We have been with her for a long time. What does Wei Yingluo count for? She just knows a little bit about medicine."

Sure enough, when Mingyu heard Erqing's words, she got angry in an instant, and started walking quickly towards Changchun Palace, not allowing Erqing to hold her arm.

"Mingyu, walk slower, I can't catch up with you!" Er Qing shouted breathlessly behind him, but she felt very happy in her heart.

At the same time, in Chuxiu Palace, Concubine Gao had just coaxed the Fourth Prince Yongsheng to sleep.

She couldn't wait to discuss with her personal maid Zhilan the maid who had confused them all - Wei Yingluo.

"Who is this Wei Yingluo? She can actually see through the poison at a glance!"

Concubine Gao frowned and said suspiciously.

"Also, why did the people around the Queen suddenly become so smart? Previously, Jiapin tried to replace the cakes in the Imperial Tea and Food Room and successfully made the Second Prince eat the cakes mixed with croton, but no one noticed anything unusual from beginning to end. But in today's incident, the 'variable' in the Queen's palace is obviously this Wei Yingluo!"

The more Concubine Gao thought about it, the more she felt that something was fishy. She couldn't help but become very interested in Wei Yingluo, so she turned to Zhilan and asked, "I ordered you to send someone to investigate Wei Yingluo's background. Is there any result now?"

Seeing that Concubine Gao looked angry, Zhilan knelt down hurriedly and answered.

"Your Highness, I have found out that Wei Yingluo entered the palace two months ago. She was transferred to Changchun Palace to work because of her outstanding embroidery skills. However, she is only a bondservant and cannot be seen in public."

Hearing this, Concubine Gao felt a little relieved, but she was still wary of Wei Yingluo.

After all, the fact that a little palace maid could have such keen insight should not be underestimated.

At this time, Zhilan said, "Don't worry, Imperial Concubine. I don't think this person can cause much trouble. And with your status and power, are you afraid that you can't deal with a little palace maid?"

Concubine Gao nodded slightly, indicating that she agreed with Zhilan.

However, she was well aware that court struggles were treacherous and any slight change could cause an uproar.

Therefore, she decided to be careful with people like Wei Yingluo...

"Oh? She used to work at the embroidery workshop. Ask A-Man to come to Chuxiu Palace tomorrow. I want to see who this Wei Yingluo is."

Concubine Gao sat in the main seat and looked at Zhilan with cold eyes.

Zhilan, who was standing by, asked in confusion, "My lady, she is just a little servant, why do you care so much about her?"

Concubine Gao stretched out her finger, gently poked Zhilan's forehead, and sneered.

"Idiot! Didn't you see how confident the Queen was? After Wei Yingluo finished diagnosing her pulse, she immediately called the two captured servants. It was clear that she was well prepared."

After hearing this, Zhilan suddenly understood and said in surprise: "So that's how it is. Your Majesty is wise."

Concubine Gao frowned and continued, "They were able to see through Jiapin's carefully planned plot in advance. Their scheming and methods are far superior to Jiapin's. It seems that we have to be careful in the future. If it is not necessary, we must not act rashly, otherwise we may end up getting into trouble."

"Yes, my lady, I will remember it."

Zhilan nodded respectfully, but felt sad in her heart that she could not share the worries of the imperial concubine.
