After rebirth, the abstinent prince wants to marry me every day
Chapter 91: The Queen Mother is poisoned by the double poison, the ethereal fairy grass is broken an
"This humble woman pays her respects to the Queen Mother!"
Yang Chaoyan lowered her eyebrows and knelt respectfully in the cold hall to pay her respects.
Zhu Qing'an knelt beside her aunt. She looked at her aunt's face carefully and felt that her aunt seemed to be getting more and more haggard in recent days, and her anxiety was getting heavier.
"Aunt, this is Miss Yang. She has been practicing medicine since she was young and has excellent medical skills! Qing'an asked Miss Yang to come to the palace today because she wanted her to take your pulse!" Zhu Qing'an explained.
The Queen Mother tapped Zhu Qing'an's forehead and said, "You, you're so worried even at such a young age! The imperial physician comes to pay his respects every day. I'm in good health!"
"Now that everyone is here, why don't you let Miss Yang take a look?" Zhu Qing'an coaxed.
In fact, she herself didn't have much hope. After all, even the imperial physician couldn't see anything, let alone the young Yang Chaoyan.
But she was unwilling to give up any hope.
"As you wish!" the Queen Mother agreed, then casually asked, "This Miss Yang, I suppose, is the daughter of the Yang family in Lingzhou?"
Yang Chaoyan hadn't dared to look up, but upon hearing the majestic voice, she quickly replied, "Yes, I am the legitimate daughter of the Yang family of Lingzhou!"
"You and your father are different!" The Queen Mother said with hints.
Zhu Qingan said with a flattering smile, "Miss Yang is fine, you can't make things difficult for her just because of this!"
"You! I was just asking a question, but you protected me! Miss Yang, please get up!" As the Queen Mother spoke, a palace maid brought a cushion and placed it under the Queen Mother's wrist. After placing it properly, she bowed and retreated.
"Miss Yang, please come and take my aunt's pulse!" Zhu Qing'an urged.
Yang Chaoyan knelt beside the empress dowager in small steps, stretched out her hand and began to feel her pulse, while the empress dowager and Zhu Qing'an continued to chat.
She was clearly the most honorable Empress Dowager in the Heavenly Family, but when she spoke to Zhu Qing'an at this moment, she acted more like a kind and open-minded elder.
"Have your father and mother divorced?" the Queen Mother asked with narrowed eyes.
It seems that she rarely cares about the family affairs of Wen'an Marquis Mansion, but in fact, nothing can be hidden from her, and she has her own thoughts.
"Well, my mother has left Ancheng now!" Zhu Qing'an replied.
"That's good. After all these years of entanglement, it's finally over! But with your mother's love-brained personality, I'm afraid she can't wait to find her young man!" The Queen Mother had a speechless look on her face.
She had disliked this sister-in-law since she came into the family. She acted aloof and affectionate, but she took all the benefits.
If it weren't for her love-brained brother who insisted on her, the Queen Mother would have killed Shui Shiyu long ago. To deal with a woman like that, the Queen Mother didn't even need to take action herself.
Hearing the Queen Mother's words, Yang Chaoyan lowered her head even lower. After all, her father was a so-called young man.
"My aunt always predicts things, and mother has gotten what she wished for. What happens to her in the future will be her own fault! As far as I know, Mr. Yang has never had peace in his backyard in recent years. I wonder how long my mother can have a good life after he brings her back home!" Zhu Qing'an talked about his mother as if he was talking about an outsider.
It was at this moment that Yang Chaoyan suddenly raised her head and stared at the empress dowager's face with a somewhat frightened look.
This action was indeed a bit disrespectful, but before the palace servants beside her could reprimand her, Zhu Qingan suddenly stood up and said, "Miss Yang, is there anything wrong?"
At the same time, the palace commander ordered all the palace maids to leave the palace.
Yang Chaoyan frowned quickly, and then said, "Please allow me to feel the pulse of your other hand, Your Majesty!"
Yang Chaoyan's words made the empress dowager's eyes, which were originally slightly narrowed, open slightly. She handed her left hand to Yang Chaoyan, while Zhu Qing'an swallowed nervously.
She expected Yang Chaoyan to be able to see what was wrong with her aunt's health, but she was also really afraid that there was something wrong with her aunt's health. She was very conflicted.
Yang Chaoyan took the pulse of the empress dowager's other hand, this time taking a little longer.
After Yang Chaoyan released her hand, she continued, "Please, Queen Mother, allow me to examine your eyes, nose, mouth, and tongue!"
Normally, imperial physicians would diagnose a patient’s pulse through a handkerchief, but Yang Chaoyan seemed to be different.
Yang Chaoyan also knew that her actions were very bold and that the Queen Mother could take her life with just one word, but as a doctor, she naturally had to be cautious.
I thought I would be scolded by the Queen Mother, but I didn't expect that the Queen Mother would agree without even considering it.
Yang Chaoyan stood up and carefully observed the empress dowager's mouth, nose, eyes and tongue. It was only then that she discovered what the empress dowager looked like.
The Queen Mother had a very regular appearance, a full forehead, superior bone structure, and was extremely attractive. She had a powerful and noble aura.
After a careful examination, Yang Chaoyan first glanced at Zhu Qing'an, and then continued, "Please allow me to take your pulse, Princess!"
The empress dowager, who had always been calm, now straightened up slightly, with a hint of worry in her expression, not for herself, but for Zhu Qing'an.
Zhu Qing'an was very puzzled. Yang Chaoyan was clearly taking her aunt's pulse, so why was she taking her own pulse now?
But Zhu Qing'an didn't ask too many questions and handed over his wrist.
After a long time, Yang Chaoyan's face was solemn. He knelt on the ground and reported, "The Queen Mother has been poisoned!"
Even the Queen Mother was a little surprised when these words came out. Zhu Qing'an couldn't wait to ask, "What kind of poison did Auntie get? Is there an antidote?"
"The poison the Queen Mother was poisoned with is called Shuang Jue. It's a rare poison. I only learned about it when I accompanied my master to a small border town many years ago. It's a slow-acting poison, and the most surprising thing is that it doesn't affect the victim directly, but rather those closest to them!"
After hearing these words, Zhu Qing'an's face turned pale. She seemed to understand Yang Chaoyan's action of taking her pulse.
The Queen Mother's face was calm. "You mean, someone poisoned Qing'an with Shuangjue? Is this poison harmful to Qing'an's health?"
At this point, the Queen Mother is no longer concerned about her poisoned body, but is still most concerned about her niece.
She had no sons or daughters in her life, and she treated her niece as her own daughter. She raised the young Zhu Qing to adulthood, and the Queen Mother spent as much effort as any other mother.
"This poison is not fatal to the princess, but it will make her body weaker than that of an ordinary woman! In recent years, the princess often feels tired without doing anything? Intermittent headaches, or even chills?" Yang Chaoyan asked in a very serious manner.
Zhu Qing'an nodded. She had all these symptoms. Her aunt had asked the imperial physician to take her pulse, but the physician couldn't find anything wrong.
Zhu Qingan herself also thought that it was because she was a woman that her body was like this. After all, many women nowadays have weak constitutions.
"What about my aunt?" Zhu Qing'an was most concerned about his aunt's health.
"In my humble opinion, this poison must have been lurking in the bodies of the princess and the queen mother for at least five years. Fortunately, it was discovered in time. If it had been discovered a year or two later, even the gods would have been powerless to save them!"
After hearing this, Zhu Qing'an breathed a sigh of relief, as long as there was still hope, it would be fine.
"This poison is rare, and the symptoms are no different from everyday fatigue and cold. If I hadn't seen it by chance, I wouldn't have recognized it. I imagine the Queen Mother is often feeling weak and drowsy all day long. This is the early symptom of the poison!"
The Queen Mother carefully recalled her condition during this period and realized that this was indeed the case. She attributed it to her busy schedule and her age. The Imperial Physician also examined her pulse daily, and the Queen Mother had never expected that she had been poisoned.
"I can cure this poison, but it requires two extremely rare medicinal herbs. As far as I know, I have never heard of anyone possessing these herbs!" Yang Chaoyan mentioned the most difficult problem.
"What medicinal herb is it? I will definitely find it for my aunt!" Zhu Qing'an asked.
Now that he knew his aunt was poisoned, Zhu Qingan was extremely anxious and wished he could detoxify his aunt right away.
"To cure the Shuangjue poison, a total of eight medicinal herbs are needed. Four of them can be found by common women, and the other two should not be difficult to obtain given the Queen Mother's status. The rare ones are two of them, called Kongling Xiancao and Duanshenghua!" Yang Chaoyan replied.
After these words were spoken, the Queen Mother and Zhu Qing'an fell silent.
With their knowledge, they have seen all kinds of precious medicinal herbs. Even if they have not seen them, they have heard of them or even read about them in books.
But the two medicinal herbs that Yang Chaoyan mentioned were something they had never heard of.
"I will definitely find them for my aunt!" Zhu Qing'an was determined that no matter how rare these two herbs were, she would definitely find them. She couldn't let anything happen to her aunt.
"Miss Yang!" Zhu Qing'an suddenly came to Yang Chaoyan and bowed.
"What is the princess doing?" Yang Chaoyan hurriedly supported Zhu Qing'an's arm. "As a doctor, this is all part of my job! I will do my best to detoxify the Empress Dowager!"
"I will always remember Miss Yang's great kindness. If you have any requests, just ask!" Zhu Qing'an also made his own promise.
Yang Chaoyan smiled. She didn't want any thank-you gift. Besides, she still felt guilty towards Zhu Qing'an in her heart. Now that she could help Zhu Qing'an, she would naturally do her best to help.
"Miss Yang, how should I and the princess cooperate next?" asked the Queen Mother.
"The antidote hasn't been prepared yet, so I can only prescribe medicine and use acupuncture to stabilize the toxicity for the Queen Mother. Princess, please try not to have any contact with the Queen Mother. The closer you are to the Queen Mother, the faster the poison will take effect!" Yang Chaoyan explained.
"Then I'll trouble Miss Yang!" The Queen Mother said, and then said, "The poison in the princess' body..."
"As for the princess, I will naturally prescribe medicine for her as well. However, the princess is young after all, and she was only the trigger of the poison. She is fine for now. She can only recover after the poison is detoxified!"
While Yang Chaoyan was speaking, Zhu Qingan, who had been standing next to his aunt, retreated to a distance away from the entrance of the hall.
Zhu Qing'an looked at her aunt who was in a high position. Even though she tried her best to hide it, her eyes still turned red uncontrollably.
"Miss Yang will stay in the palace for the next few days! Palace Master Guan, take Miss Yang down there first!" the Queen Mother ordered.
After expressing his gratitude, Yang Chaoyan looked at Zhu Qingan worriedly before leaving the palace.
From the first moment she saw Zhu Qing'an, she was calm, as if nothing could move her. Even in the face of her biological mother's difficulties and favoritism, she could remain so calm.
This was the first time Yang Chaoyan saw Zhu Qing'an looking so helpless. She tried hard to hold back her tears, her eyes filled with guilt and uneasiness.
Even Yang Chaoyan could feel her panic.
At this moment, Yang Chaoyan really wanted to hug Zhu Qingan and comfort her, but she could do nothing and could only lower her head and retreat.
"Qing'an, come here!" The queen mother sat there and waved to Zhu Qing'an. There was no fear of being poisoned in her expression, but more of helplessness, and her eyes were full of doting.
Zhu Qingan shook her head. She didn't want to cry, but she couldn't help it in front of her aunt.
"No, I will implicate my aunt!" Zhu Qing'an said stubbornly with tears streaming down her face.
At this moment, Zhu Qing'an felt that she was about to be overwhelmed by guilt. She lowered her head slightly and did not dare to look at her aunt. This emotion made her limbs stiff and her body trembled constantly.
She never imagined that she was the culprit who caused her aunt's poisoning.
Then my aunt's sudden death in my previous life was also due to me. If it weren't for me, my aunt would have been fine.
Thinking back on all these years, she had stayed by her aunt's side, accompanied her for meals, and rested on her aunt's lap. All those times together became her aunt's death warrant.
"Silly child!" The queen mother stood up and walked towards the crying little girl step by step.
At this time, Zhu Qing'an was stepping back, with a worried look on his face, "You, don't come near Qing'an!"
But before Zhu Qing'an could escape, the Queen Mother quickly came to Zhu Qing'an and took her into her arms.
She was no longer as tall as Zhu Qing'an remembered. In fact, she was as tall as her aunt, but her embrace was as warm as ever.
"You are stupid, and you really are! What does this matter have to do with you! Those people wanted to harm me, but without you, they would have started somewhere else! And I am grateful to you. If it weren't for you, I would have died without knowing that I was poisoned!" The Queen Mother patted Zhu Qing'an's shoulder, and every word she said was soothing.
She had never blamed Zhu Qing'an, and she understood that all the faults lay with those who secretly poisoned him. She didn't want Zhu Qing'an to feel guilty about this matter.
"But..." Zhu Qing'an sobbed and couldn't utter a complete sentence.
"Since the poison can be detected, there will be a chance to detoxify it in the future. Even if I really don't have long to live, there is nothing to regret. I have done many things I wanted to accomplish in my life, so it's worth it!" The Queen Mother said very open-mindedly.
She doesn't care much about life and death. Everyone will die, and no one can escape it.
In the past, what she was most worried about was her niece, but now she sees that her niece has grown up and can face any situation calmly in the future.
What's more, what she and Bian Jingsheng had planned was still going on. In the future, Bian Jingsheng would definitely be able to protect Zhu Qing'an and the Marquis Wen'an's Mansion, so she had nothing to worry about.
More importantly, Bian Jingsheng inherited her ambition. If he can really sit in that position in the future, he will definitely benefit the people of Xuanlong Kingdom.
What is there to be afraid of if someone else continues what she couldn't do?
