"Your Majesty, Feiwen was slapped as punishment on the day Concubine Xi gave birth, and she harbored resentment from that day. Furthermore, she has always been disliked by the Master in Yongshou Palace, so I don't think she would lie to me."
"What did she see?"
Jianqiu frowned upon hearing this. "Your Majesty, Feiwen said that a few days ago, she brought the second daughter of the Zhen family into the main hall of Yongshou Palace and accidentally saw Imperial Physician Wen Shichu, while examining Concubine Xi's pulse, turn up his sleeve to reveal a five-petal bamboo leaf pattern."
"Five-petal bamboo leaves?"
The Queen murmured in confusion, then added, "Why is Zhuye associated with Zhen Shi? This is probably inappropriate."
"My Lady, we have to do a blood test after all..."
Perhaps because someone had told her everything, the queen became much more rational at this moment.
"You and I know exactly what a blood test is used for. If we're not careful, we could be doomed..."
The Queen hesitated for a long time, then said, "Have someone watch Prince Guo's mansion, and report any unusual movements immediately."
Jianqiu didn't understand what the Queen meant, but she immediately bowed her head and replied, "Yes, I understand."
……
Let’s not talk about what’s happening in the palace.
After returning to the palace, Qingying had to pay her respects to Fucha Langya first.
With just a few words, she said that keeping A Ruo in the palace was the Empress's favorite, and Fu Jin had nothing to say.
After returning to Qinglan Courtyard, Qingying dismissed her attendants and sat alone in front of the dressing table.
He reached out and took the bracelet given by his wife, and also held a golden hairpin in his hand.
After a few movements, a hidden grid opened with a slight sound.
There were a few more small noises, and more than ten black pills, not much bigger than sesame seeds, appeared on the table.
"Linglingxiang..."
Although it is not as pungent and overbearing as musk, its fragrance is subtle and can hardly be detected, and its effect is not much worse.
It is really a good method for wealthy families.
She casually took a handkerchief, wrapped up the Linglingxiang and put it aside. Qingying did not put on the bracelet immediately.
You always have to find some good stuff to soak overnight before this thing can get close to you.
"It's just that... it's impolite not to reciprocate. Fucha, since you've given me such a good thing, I naturally have to return the favor, only then will I be considerate."
Qingying muttered something, and already had a plan in mind.
After a detailed discussion today, I have learned the origins of Fucha from the Queen.
The other party is a smart person, so he probably won't have to hold Hongshi hostage.
Who wouldn't want to support the more promising Fourth Prince and provide more security for their future?
Now is a good time to take control of the backyard of the palace.
And as long as the queen is still there, he will have his support.
It is even simpler and easier to do it.
After thinking for a long time, Qingying turned around and called惢心 in.
There are only three people in the backyard now, and all of them have just entered the mansion. Even if they are very capable, it is probably not so easy to bribe the mansion doctor.
But you don't need to say this to others.
"惢心, who is the current court doctor? Do you know him?"
"Master, there are two doctors in the mansion now. One is surnamed Li and the other is surnamed Zhao. Master came to the mansion yesterday, and we haven't hired a doctor yet, so I don't know them."
"Have they been in the mansion for long?"
"Yes, Master, the prince has established his palace and clinic for some time. These two palace doctors must be Wang Qin, who serves as the prince's assistant. They were arranged by the eunuch Wang himself."
Qingying frowned and asked, "Do you know this Wang Qin?"
As soon as these words came out,惢心 frowned.
It seems that he really dislikes this person.
But her face suddenly turned red, and she looked like she didn't know how to start.
Qingying looked at him puzzledly. "Why is he like this? Could it be that Wang Qin is really dishonest?"
Qingying spoke without restraint, and惢心 also became bolder.
"Master, I'm not saying anything bad about Eunuch Wang, but he's truly unbecoming. He's relied on his position as the chief eunuch in the presence of the prince to have frequently made advances on the servants in the mansion..."
"Hands on?"
Qingying's face was full of disbelief.
What the hell is this place?
Can such a servant serve the prince personally?
What's more, this prince is very likely to be the future emperor!
But if that's the case, Qingying will have even less worries.
They all say birds of a feather.
How can the court doctor arranged by such a person be any good?
"After paying respects tomorrow, please ask the court physician to come to Qinglan Courtyard."
When Qingying said this, Suo Xin suddenly became anxious. "Master, are you feeling unwell? Why do you have to wait until tomorrow? I'll go get the palace doctor right away!"
Qingying reached out and grabbed惢心, "Don't worry, I'm fine, but..."
"No need to wait until tomorrow. Today, estimate the time when the prince will return to the palace, go and call the palace physician, and then pass the news to the front yard."
Looking at the way the prince spoke to me last night, regardless of what Qingying's original feelings were towards him, I think the prince still has some feelings for Qingying.
If you are not feeling well, you can probably ask the other person for help.
惢心 seemed to understand something. "Yes, Master, I will do it right away."
"Well, go ahead and call Xiu Xia in."
Suoxin left and Xiuxia followed her in.
"Greetings to the master."
Qingying raised her hand to decline Xiuxia's gift and stared at her for a moment.
When I was the queen, there was no such person around me.
But now that he has been assigned by that aunt to be by my side, there is no doubt that he is loyal.
But in addition to assisting himself, the other party must have also taken on the responsibility of looking after himself for the queen.
But now he is alone and helpless, so even though he understands this, he has no choice but to take the other party.
With these thoughts in her mind, Qingying said, "I forgot to tell you something when I entered the palace today."
"My aunt placed you with me to facilitate communication. The palace physician is incompetent, so I'll trouble you to send a message back to the palace and arrange for another competent physician."
Xiuxia lowered her head and did not show any intention of refusing Qingying's words.
She bowed respectfully and said, "Yes, I understand. I will send a message to the Empress as soon as possible. However, before leaving the palace, Jianqiu told me that from now on I belong to the master and my loyalty will only be to the master. Please rest assured, master."
The sudden display of loyalty did not surprise Qingying too much.
After all, what I just said has already made it clear, both explicitly and implicitly, that I don't really trust Xiuxia.
But even if the other party expressed his loyalty, Qingying naturally would not believe it completely.
She smiled and raised her head, saying, "Aunt and I are aunt and niece. I naturally trust your people. I have just entered the palace and I am blind to everything. From now on, you will be by my side, just like惢心, and receive the share of a first-class maid in the palace."
"Perhaps it can't compare to the allowances in the palace, but now that you've left the palace, everything is naturally incomparable. Are you willing?"
Xiu Xia never raised her head, but her tone was very sincere.
