Chapter 14 Someone poisoned
Concubine Yao walked over with Ying'an in her arms and joked: "I still think of you as your sister and you don't plan to see me anymore."
As she said that, she raised her eyes with a pout and rolled her eyes at Chang Zhiyu.
Chang Zhiyu burst out laughing for a moment, raised a handkerchief to cover his mouth and said, "I'm already a mother-in-law, but you're still so careless. Be careful that after Ying'an, you will become like you, naughty and dishonest."
Concubine Yao also laughed.
Hong Yan, the personal palace maid behind Chang Zhiyu, also joked: "Your Majesty, you know our little master best. When you came here a few days ago, she almost had a hole in the window. No, you are here today." After a while, she couldn’t sit still and had to come out to greet you in person.”
Chang Zhiyu frowned and looked back at Hongyan, then pretended to hit her sleeve with his hand.
Coquettishly insulted: "You are the only one who talks too much."
Concubine Yao watched the master and servant bickering and bent over with laughter.
Ying'an was also in Concubine Yao's arms, looking curiously at the beautiful lady in front of her, thinking about the characters in the book.
Suddenly, she remembered.
[Chang Zhiyu in the book is a proud woman. As the only daughter of the Duke of Dingguo, she has a bright future. She is about to marry a good man. She has a safe and smooth life, and the couple is loving. However, Emperor Ling is cruel. Unable to bear it, he forced her to enter the palace as a concubine. 】
[Although being the emperor's concubine is the best way out in this capital, in Chang Zhiyu's view, this means becoming a concubine and bending her waist. But as the daughter of a minister in the court, for the sake of the family , she had no choice. 】
[The book focuses on describing her origins, but briefly mentions her results. She spent half her life in the harem. After the death of Concubine Yao's daughter, she was disheartened and ended her remaining life with a glass of poisonous wine. 】
Listening to Ying'an's thoughts, Concubine Yao's heart trembled.
She originally thought that Yizhiyu's character would allow her to be a transparent person in the palace. Although she was not favored by the emperor, she would still live a stable life.
But she didn't expect that she would take the sisterhood between them so seriously.
The palace door was wide open, facing the cool autumn breeze, and she actually shed two lines of tears.
Chang Zhiyu's heart trembled when he saw two lines of tears, and he hurriedly said: "Sister, what happened? Could it be that you suffered some injustice in this palace?"
Concubine Yao raised her hand and stroked her tears: "Nothing, I just thought of some sad things and felt some feelings."
In the Lianxin Palace, Chang Zhiyu played with Ying'an for a few minutes, and even asked Hongyan to take a gold lock from the jewelry box.
While putting it on Ying'an, she said: "The golden lock keeps you safe. I wish our little Ying'an will be safe, smooth and worry-free in the future."
Concubine Yao raised her lips and looked at Chang Zhiyu, feeling touched in her heart.
"Did you hear about Concubine Chun a few days ago?" Concubine Yao suddenly spoke.
Chang Zhiyu paused with his hands and nodded: "Although I don't go out, Hongyan will talk to me about everything in the palace, especially the matters related to Concubine Chun. I know all the details, no matter how big or small."
Concubine Yao thought carefully and said: "That day in the cold palace, I heard that you had a fetus in your belly..."
Chang Zhiyu hugged Ying'an, teased her little hands, raised her eyes to the top of her head, and tried hard to control her tears from falling.
"I know it was her, but sister, I can't do anything. I can only be sad and sad in this palace, chanting sutras and praying for the dead fetus."
Concubine Yao felt very uncomfortable looking at Chang Zhiyu's appearance.
That day when she left the cold palace, all the concubines and concubines went to Chengqian Palace to congratulate her. Only Zhiyu didn't arrive, so she guessed that the miscarriage that day had hit Zhiyu so hard that she couldn't bear to care about it.
But looking at this appearance, for Zhiyu, the incident still has not passed.
Ying'an tried her best to hold Chang Zhiyu's hand, and continuously transferred the divine power in her body through her fingers to Chang Zhiyu's body to cure her hidden diseases caused by miscarriage.
Looking at her desolate expression, her thoughts were heavy.
[Looking at Chang Zhiyu’s appearance, in addition to a hidden illness, she also seems to be suffering from postpartum depression as mentioned in the storybook. If she is allowed to continue like this, I am afraid it will lead to a big mistake. Let me think about how to resolve it. ] Concubine Yao raised her eyes to look at Ying'an, her eyes full of shock.
What is postpartum depression?
Could it be that imperial doctors often said that weak pulse is related to bad mood and depression?
She coughed lightly, thought over and over again, and spoke to persuade Chang Zhiyu: "Zhiyu, you are still young, you will have children, so don't worry about it."
Chang Zhiyu took a deep breath and said: "Thank you for your concern, sister. It has been so long, and I have figured it out. It is probably because the fate between me and the child has not come yet, so she... abandoned me."< br>
As she spoke, she shed two lines of tears.
She originally thought that she would not shed tears today and not worry Sister Yao He, but when she thought of her child who died before he was born, she couldn't help but feel sad.
As soon as he finished speaking, the eunuch entered the room and knelt down and said: "My lord, the doctor has come to ask for Ping'an's pulse."
Chang Zhiyu handed Ying'an to Concubine Yao and said solemnly: "Let him come in."
Concubine Yao stood up with Ying'an in her arms and said calmly, "Then we won't disturb you anymore. We'll see you another day."
Chang Zhiyu stood up and knelt down to salute: "Best farewell to my sister."
Concubine Yao looked up at her, nodded and smiled, then turned and left.
Coincidentally, she happened to have a photo with the imperial doctor who came over.
The imperial doctor bowed and said, "Concubine Yao."
When Concubine Yao saw the person coming, she frowned and asked, "Mr. Zhao? Why is it you? Why do I remember that it is Dr. Ma Hongma who has been checking Zhi Zhaoyi's pulse?"
Imperial Doctor Zhao did not stand up and replied: "Back to Concubine Yao, Imperial Physician Ma suddenly suffered from a serious illness in the Queen's Palace just now. She has diarrhea. Now she has taken leave and gone home. The Empress heard that Imperial Physician Ma has been here since Zhi Zhaoyi had a miscarriage. I was looking after him, and I happened to be in the palace, so I sent him to ask for peace of mind.”
Concubine Yao frowned slightly, looked back at Hongyan, curled her lips and said with a smile: "Oh, I didn't pay attention. I just talked to Yu for so long, and I'm a little thirsty. Hongyan, go and give me a cup of tea." , I also want to taste the tea in Lianxin Palace.”
Hongyan glanced at Imperial Physician Zhao pointedly, lowered her eyes and responded: "Yes, Concubine Yao."
Concubine Yao held Ying'an and walked into the house again.
Seeing Concubine Yao come in again, Chang Zhiyu was about to speak, but Concubine Yao frowned and signaled her not to talk too much, so Chang Zhiyu swallowed the words in her mouth again.
She had just been distracted thinking about her deceased child, so she didn't hear what happened at the door and knew nothing.
I only saw Doctor Zhao guessing about 70 or 80% when he followed in.
Imperial Physician Zhao has always been on the Queen's side.
But since she gave birth, she has always kept her peace and has never offended the queen?
Doctor Zhao put away the things and began to take Chang Zhiyu's pulse.
Seeing his expression becoming more and more solemn, Concubine Yao also changed her face.
"Physician Zhao, could it be that something happened to Zhi Zhaoyi's body? Why this expression?"
Doctor Zhao knelt down and replied: "Back to Concubine Yao, Zhi Zhaoyi's body seems to be..."
Concubine Yao saw that something was wrong and said sternly: "Tell the truth! If you dare to tell lies, I will report it to the Emperor and the Queen and convict you!"
Doctor Zhao kowtowed in fear and said in a muffled voice: "Zhi Zhaoyi, it seems that he has been poisoned."
