Xiao Shanzi's eyes lit up immediately: "The emperor has conferred the title of Earl on you, is that Lord Wen?

Seeing Wen Shichu nodded, Xiao Shanzi immediately took him out.

Wen Shichu carried the medicine box and followed him without even asking about the situation.

However, when they reached a fork in the road, Xiao Shanzi hesitated again: "Master Wen, I wonder if I can go to Bitong Academy alone. I still have to go and invite the emperor."

Wen Shichu was anxious and said, "Okay." Then he turned and left.

Xiao Shanzi quietly reminded him from behind, "Sir, there are ambushes on the road. You must be careful! Be careful, the Queen is waiting."

He should have sent the person back, what if he got killed halfway... Forget it, the emperor is more important. When the emperor arrives, there will be so many imperial doctors.

So he turned around and ran towards Changchun Xianguan, but was stopped by someone when he reached the door.

Even though Xiaoshanzi explained the situation, the guard at the door refused to go in and report, saying that the emperor was drunk today and had already fallen asleep, and the imperial physician had instructed not to wake him up.

No matter what he said or how he begged, it was useless...

In Qingliang Palace, Concubine Hua and Cao Qinmo sat opposite each other in silence. Songzhi changed a cup of tea for them again.

"Your Majesty, the tea has been changed five times. I guess Concubine Ning won't be coming."

Concubine Hua's face turned pale: "Could it be that Concubine Ning dares to play tricks on me?

She was the one who said she was detaining Jiang Fuhai, but she didn't explain why. I've been waiting for her for so long, and she hasn't even said a word."

He turned to Cao Qinmo and said, "You've been thinking about it for so long, but you still haven't figured out a solution?" His voice was extremely stern.

Cao Qinmo was also sitting there trembling with fear. If she could think of a solution, she would have told him long ago and returned to the palace long ago. She didn't know if Wen Yi was sleeping soundly.

She couldn't cope with it and could only lower her head. When Concubine Hua saw her like this, she was furious, but she really couldn't wait any longer.

Pa, she slammed the table and stood up: "She is really arrogant. If she doesn't give me a satisfactory explanation today, I will not forgive her."

"Go to Bitong Academy,"

Then he said to Cao Qinmo: "Go back! You useless thing."

Concubine Hua also knew that the matter was of great importance, especially since Zhen Huan was still living in Bitong Academy. She secretly brought a few people with her and took a sparsely populated path.

When they arrived at Bitong Academy, they found something wrong. No matter how few servants there were serving in the palace, they shouldn't be so quiet that there wasn't even a sound of talking.

Even when she arrived, no one announced her arrival and no one greeted her.

When I entered the hall, I saw a maid guarding the bed.

Cai Xing hurried over and bowed, "Greetings, Concubine Hua."

Hua Fei came with full of anger, and when she saw Shen Meizhuang sweating profusely on the bed, her face extremely pale, and her breathing very weak, all her fierceness disappeared completely.

Caixing immediately moved a chair and placed it next to the bed.

Shen Meizhuang heard Cai Xing paying her respects to Concubine Hua, but she didn't have the strength to open her eyes. She could only ask weakly, "Your Majesty, are you here for Jiang Fuhai's matter?"

Hua Fei frowned and said unhappily, "At this time, you are still thinking about other people's affairs. You should be thinking about yourself first, okay?"

Shen Meizhuang twitched the corners of her mouth slightly.

Hua Fei immediately turned around, looked at Cai Xing and asked, "What's wrong with her?"

Cai Xing immediately felt aggrieved and said with a choked voice, "My queen has been exhausted since she came out of the palace banquet. She even seemed to have hallucinations during the whole process.

When I returned to the palace, I discovered that someone had lit a stick of incense, causing my queen's fetus to move violently. She was even showing signs of labor. The servants who went out to look for the imperial physician never returned.

Cai Xing, who had been trying to remain calm, didn't know if she felt that Hua Fei was her only hope. As she finished speaking, tears began to fall.

When Concubine Hua heard, "I feel weak all over and have hallucinations," she thought, "Isn't this the medicine she brought into the palace?"

Shen Meizhuang slowly opened her eyes. Now everything connected together, and she finally figured out all the links.

However, she did not mention the queen first, but asked: "Is there an antidote?"

Hua Fei immediately opened her mouth in surprise, Shen Meizhuang nodded,

"I will send someone to get it right away."

Shen Meizhuang reminded him, "There are people blocking the way on several roads outside my palace. Were you discovered when you came here?"

Concubine Hua rolled her eyes proudly: "Do you think I'm stupid? Your palace still has Concubine Wan living in it, so I came here quietly, taking the small path.

Although, I did encounter someone, I have already ordered someone to lead him away."

After saying this, he raised his chin proudly.

Shen Meizhuang: "Be careful when you go out."

So Songzhi hurriedly gave the order.

Seeing that the problem was solved, Shen Meizhuang's heavy mood eased a lot. As long as the poison was detoxified, she would be able to give birth safely.

She was in a good mood and had a good chat with Concubine Hua: "My Lady, let me tell you a story first.

Once upon a time, there was a concubine who married into the palace of a prince and became his concubine. She also gave birth to the prince's eldest son. But one day, her elder sister came to visit the palace and unexpectedly fell in love with the prince.

Hua Fei immediately interrupted, "Isn't the story you're telling about Queen Chunyuan?"

Shen Meizhuang nodded and continued, "But on the day that my elder sister was diagnosed with pregnancy, my younger sister's eldest brother died of a high fever due to untimely diagnosis and treatment.

The strange thing is that after a few days, this concubine sister was smiling and helping her elder sister to take care of her pregnancy.

During the birth, the baby of my elder sister was covered in bruises and died immediately after birth. My elder sister died within three days.

And this concubine's sister was pushed to the position of legitimate wife."

Concubine Hua finally realized something was amiss: "Are you saying that the death of your legitimate sister is related to your concubine sister?"

Shen Meizhuang nodded again: "Jiang Fuhai in your hands is the insider."

Concubine Hua was puzzled and couldn't help asking, "What does what you said have to do with me?"

Shen Meizhuang forced a smile and said, "Have you heard, Madam? The best way to cover up the current incident is to create a bigger one."

Hua Fei immediately smiled in appreciation: "Ningpin is indeed smart.

This time you helped me, and although I didn't want you to be poisoned, I became an indirect accomplice.

Tell me, what do you want? I will satisfy you."

Shen Meizhuang took a long breath, endured the contraction and said: "Okay, after this time, you and I are even.

My request is very simple. The servants of Bitong Academy are all missing. Please help me find them, Concubine Hua."

Concubine Hua looked at Shen Meizhuang in disbelief: "That's it? You're just going to use a few servants to settle this favor for me?"

To prevent Concubine Hua from reacting and settling the score with her later, Shen Meizhuang explained to her in detail: "Another, bigger incident is not so easy to create.

If you bring up Queen Chunyuan, the Emperor will be furious, and the Queen will hold a grudge against you. Your future life may not be any easier than it is now."

Concubine Hua was indifferent: "Things have come to this point. She dared to plot against me, so why should I let her go? What you said today had better be true, otherwise, I will not forgive you either."

After saying this, Concubine Hua stood up and was about to leave.

Shen Meizhuang finally reminded her, "Don't let anyone know about my visit to Bitong Academy tonight. Tomorrow, when I go to apologize to the Emperor, it must be after I give birth."

Hua Fei turned around and said unhappily, "Why should I tell others about this?

Although I don't know why I have to wait until you give birth, I have decided to trust you this time."

After saying that, he left, shaking his handkerchief.

As soon as Hua Fei left, Wen Shichu stepped out from the shadows carrying a medicine box.
