The newlyweds were replaced with new wives, and the medical concubine entered the palace and killed
Chapter 13 The human heart is sinister
The smell of the medicine was very faint, so faint that if she hadn't been dealing with herbs all year round, she wouldn't have noticed it.
Gu Lingyue didn't doubt it and smelled it carefully again.
She discovered that the smell of medicine actually came from the bracelet on her wrist.
She took off the bracelet, put it under her nose and smelled it carefully.
"Princess, what's wrong with you?" Yun Jin asked in confusion.
"I smell something herbal."
She frowned and thought carefully about what kind of herbal smell it was. There was a hint of pungent in the smell.
Yun Jin sniffed hard upon hearing this and said, "I don't smell anything."
Finally, she simply leaned closer to Gu Lingyue and smelled again, but there was still no smell.
At this time, Gu Lingyue remembered what the smell was.
This is the smell of thunder god vine.
Thinking of this, her face turned cold.
The Queen Mother gave herself this set of jewelry. Did she do it on purpose or did she not know that there was anything wrong with it?
She remembered that the Queen Mother said that this set of jewelry was given to her by the late emperor when she first entered the palace. So did she discover the secret of this set of jewelry?
Gu Lingyue thought that if she hadn't discovered it, the Queen Mother would never be able to have children if she kept wearing this set of jewelry.
But according to the original owner's memory, the Queen Mother not only gave birth to the current emperor, but the Prince of Xiang was also the Queen Mother's son.
That means either she didn't know that the jewelry was poisonous, or she was the one who poisoned it.
Gu Lingyue checked all the other accessories again and found that the entire set of jewelry given by the Queen Mother was poisonous.
What a vicious old witch! I thought she looked so friendly and was a good person, but I didn't expect her to be so hypocritical.
Yes, how can someone who can survive in the harem and reach the position of empress dowager be a kind person?
I was careless. It seems I need to be more vigilant in the future. When it comes to this matter with the royal family, they are all ruthless people, including the queen. She looks like she and I have a deep affection for each other, but she is actually plotting against me in her heart. Do they think I don't know?
She just wanted to mind her own business and didn't want to get involved in their calculations. However, if they came to cause trouble for her, she would not be easily messed with.
She now doubts whether her decision to become Princess Jing was right.
However, what puzzled her was that Prince Jing was clearly unconscious, but the Queen Mother still gave her a pair of jewelry soaked in medicine. What was her intention?
Since she couldn't figure it out, she stopped thinking about it. Anyway, the truth would eventually come out, so she would just go to the palace less often in the future.
So, Gu Lingyue put the bracelet back into the box and said to Yun Jin, "Put it away. No one should touch it in the future."
This is a harmful thing. If women come into contact with it for a long time, it will cause ovarian failure. It is best not to touch it.
Even for the girls around her, she hopes that they can find someone they like in the future, get married, have children, and live a happy life.
Yunjin was also a smart girl. When Gu Lingyue said this, she knew that the jewelry had been tampered with, and her face turned gloomy.
She didn't say anything, but kept it in mind, picked up the jewelry box and left, ready to tell her master about it later.
At this time, Qiu Tong came in with half a basin of water, Yun Shu came in with food, and two maids came in with food as well.
"Miss, please wash your hands and eat first. The hot water will be ready soon. You can take a shower after you finish your meal." Qiu Tong said.
"it is good."
When Gu Lingyue was washing her hands, Yun Shu and the two maids had already placed the meal on the table. The two maids secretly glanced at Gu Lingyue and then stepped back.
"Princess, please take a look at these dishes and see if they suit your taste. If there is anything you want to eat, tell this servant and I will ask the kitchen to prepare it for you later."
It was almost time for dinner today, and her princess had not returned yet. In the morning, her princess had not said what she liked to eat, so she took the initiative to bring some of each over.
After wiping her hands, Gu Lingyue handed the towel to Qiu Tong and walked to the table and sat down.
She looked at the food on the table thoughtfully.
She thought the breakfast was rich enough, but she didn't expect the lunch to be even richer.
Gu Lingyue counted them and found there were twelve dishes in total, including four main dishes, and the rest included chicken, duck, fish and meat, as well as a few vegetarian dishes.
"Is this... for me alone?" She raised her head and looked at Yun Shu, asking uncertainly.
"Yes. If there is anything you want to eat, I will ask the kitchen staff to make it for you now." Yun Shu said again.
Gu Lingyue shook her head. "It's not that I don't like it. I'm not picky about food. It's just that I can't finish all the dishes by myself. You guys should sit down and eat together."
As she spoke, she looked at the dishes on the table and felt emotional.
It seems that this palace needs to be reorganized. It would be such a waste to have a whole table of food for each person.
This is just about food; the other aspects are not much better.
When Prince Jing dies one day, everything here will be mine, and every ounce of silver that was wasted will be mine.
"This... How can this be possible?" Yun Shu quickly shook her head and said, "You are the princess, the master of this palace. How can we servants sit down and eat with the master?"
At this time, Yunjin also put away the jewelry box and walked out of the inner room.
She also heard what Gu Lingyue said and quickly said, "Yun Shu is right. This is absolutely not allowed."
Seeing this, Gu Lingyue had no choice but to leave a bowl of rice, two meat dishes, one vegetable dish and a soup, and let the three of them take the rest away and eat.
Yun Jin liked the mistress even more when she saw her like this.
"The princess is still the mistress of our palace, but she only left four dishes. The woman in Haitang Courtyard has six dishes for every meal." Yun Shu muttered softly as he walked out.
Upon hearing this, Yun Jin quickly glanced at Gu Lingyue. Seeing that Gu Lingyue had already started eating and was not looking at them, she whispered, "Just say less."
She knew that the mother and daughter princesses in Haitang Courtyard would find out sooner or later, but the princess was eating now, and she didn't want her princess to know at this time and affect her appetite.
Besides, her master has woken up now. If there is anything, her master will tell her, so they should not make trouble.
Gu Lingyue frowned. Could it be that Prince Jing had a concubine?
However, she felt relieved when she thought that she just wanted the title of Princess Jing to make things easier for her.
If Prince Jing remains unconscious or dies, she will continue to be the Princess of Jing. As for the concubines in the backyard, she will pretend that they don't exist. As long as they don't cause trouble for her, everything will be fine.
If Prince Jing wakes up, I will divorce him after I finish what I need to do.
Thinking of this, she was somewhat glad that she had asked for a condition from Emperor Tianqi. At that time, she thought that if the original owner's mother wanted to divorce and Gu Shuo disagreed, she would use this condition in exchange for the original owner's mother's freedom. Now it seems that this condition cannot be used lightly. As for the matter of the original owner's mother, she still had to meet with her before discussing it carefully.
After dinner, Gu Lingyue took a comfortable hot bath, and then took Yunshu and Qiutong to Zizhuxuan.
At the same time, inside Zizhuxuan.
Ye Xinyu was eating and said, "I'm starving. I should have let Yun Hao go earlier."
Long Shang looked at Ye Xinyu who was eating voraciously, and wondered if that girl was in trouble in the palace, otherwise, why would she come back just now.
Ye Xinyu looked up and saw Long Shang distracted, his heart trembled.
Could it be that his senior brother really likes that idiot?
Thinking of this, he didn't dare to think any further, and felt that the food in front of him was no longer fragrant.
When he heard his senior brother say yesterday that there was no need to go to the palace to see the emperor, he knew that his senior brother did not hate that idiot. Unfortunately, when he rushed to the main hall, the ceremony had already been completed, and there was nothing he could do.
He hasn't told his senior brother about this yet. If his senior brother knew about it, he would definitely be punished.
How could he know that Wang An actually admitted his negligence in that matter and had already confessed his guilt and accepted the punishment before Long Shang.
Ye Xinyu, with a strong desire to survive, put down his chopsticks and said thoughtfully, "Master has been looking for a solution since you fell into a coma, but there has been no news since then. Yun Yi has not been heard from for nearly a month. I plan to go to Xishu myself to take a look."
This was not an excuse. Although the poison in his senior brother's body was temporarily suppressed, it was still a disaster and had to be resolved as soon as possible.
And there was their master. Although he knew that his master was a martial arts expert and few people could match him, his master knew that his senior brother was in a coma and there had been no news for the past six months. He couldn't help but worry.
Before, his senior brother was in a coma and he couldn't leave. Now that his senior brother has woken up, he wants to go find his master and find the host of the mother Gu.
Long Shang knew that Ye Xinyu was thinking about him. In his current condition, it was unrealistic for him to go there in person, so he said, "Bring more people with you. Don't be careless."
"I know. Don't worry."
He would be leaving tomorrow, so even if his senior brother knew that it was the rooster that got married on his behalf, he would not punish him now.
Thinking of this, he breathed a sigh of relief and felt that he was not full yet, so he continued eating.
At this moment, Yun Hao's voice was heard outside.
"Madam Wei, please stop."
"Guard Hao, Yingying misses the prince. I brought Yingying to see the prince." A clear and gentle female voice came over.
Long Shang frowned. He actually forgot about Wei.
