45, life and death go hand in hand
Jiang Yingyue had planned everything and immediately took action. In the first few days, she could not get close to Wanyan Bupo, and even Anshun, the gate of the main hall, did not allow her to approach at will.
Jiang Yingyue gritted her teeth and continued to do the rough work she had, with a meticulous attitude, and even if no one supervised her, she would do it seriously.
As time went by, more and more people fell ill in the palace, and there were only a few imperial physicians, and they were all closely related to the emperor's condition. Is it really apart? I was exhausted and could only move the sick palace people to one place and let them lie down and die.
There were fewer and fewer servants who could be driven, and more and more work was assigned to Jiang Yingyue's head, and heavier work, from preparing meals for the palace servants to cleaning, gradually to treating the dirt and washing clothes for Wanyan without breaking it.
She used her hard-working attitude to wipe out Anshun's wariness bit by bit, and got closer to Wanyan Bubo step by step.
On this day, the most skillful and capable palace maid finally fell ill. Anshun had to take care of the emperor and manage the huge palace in Mount Li, and was exhausted. Seeing the newly selected palace maid feeding the emperor with medicine tremblingly, half of the medicine was fed, half of the medicine, which made the already weak emperor even more embarrassed, Anshun frowned fiercely and whispered, "Okay, go out, the family will come by themselves!"
The palace maid was as if she had received a general amnesty when she heard this, and ran away as if she had escaped. Anshun stared at her back, and her eyes flashed with cold light. Then she picked up the medicine bowl and walked to the bed to feed the emperor medicine.
Holding a full tablespoon of medicine and handed it to the emperor's mouth, Anshun realized that the emperor, who had finally woken up, fainted again and could not drink the medicine again!
An Shun was depressed and pinched the emperor's jaw and barely took the medicine. However, two-thirds of it was poured on the mattress and pillows. The emperor's clothes were also covered with yellow-brown medicine juice, which was a bit more embarrassed than the palace maid who was feeding the medicine.
Anshun put down the empty medicine bowl, wiped his face, hurried to the outside of the hall, shouting loudly, "Come here, bathe and change the emperor, and change the sheets and bedding."
The hall gate where two palace maids should have been guarding was empty and no one answered.
An Shun was stunned and felt quite desolate in her heart.
"Eunuch An, they are all sick and have just been carried down. If there is no one available, can I allow the servants to come and serve me?" Jiang Yingyue passed by with a pile of dirty clothes in her hand. Seeing An Shun's sad expression, she knelt down at the right time to beg.
"You?" An Shun hesitated and lowered his head to ponder. Now he was indeed no one available, and all the capable people fell ill. The rest were all new servants. How could he serve the emperor?
"As soon as I entered the palace, I was trained in the Imperial Medicine Department, proficient in medical science, and would definitely be able to take good care of the emperor. If it doesn't work, I would like to be buried with the emperor." The implication was that her life was hanged on the emperor, and she dared not do anything to survive for her own life.
Anshun looked at her for a moment, and saw that she had a sincere expression and clear eyes, and she was telling the truth, so she finally nodded slowly.
Jiang Yingyue suppressed the excitement in her heart, put down her dirty clothes, and went into the hall to serve Wanyan Bubo's bathing and changing clothes.
She carefully checked Wanyan Bupo's situation. Seeing that the bed was covered with medicine, she knew that Wanyan Bupo had not drunk much. She quickly said to Anshun, "Please ask Dad An to decoct another bowl of medicine. I have a way to let the emperor drink it."
An Shun looked at her and saw that she looked confident, she nodded and agreed. She walked outside the hall and sent the eunuch who specialized in medicinal materials to boil a bowl of medicine and brought it over.
Jiang Yingyue waited for the medicine to cool down slightly, and at Anshun's instructions, she took a sip to try the poison.
After a while, Anshun saw that she was fine, he nodded, half-helped the emperor up, and pinched his jaw to facilitate Jiang Yingyue to feed the medicine.
Jiang Yingyue took the medicine bowl and slowly poured the medicine into the emperor's mouth, while rubbing several acupoints in his throat. The acupoints were stimulated and restored their swallowing function. She drank the medicine all night without splashing a drop.
Anshun took the empty bowl and glanced at Jiang Yingyue. His stereotyped expression remained unchanged, but his eyes were much softer.
With Jiang Yingyue's care, Wanyan Bupo's condition finally stabilized and she woke up for a long time every day.
When he woke up, he saw that Jiang Yingyue was taking care of her. He didn't say anything, but his nerves were tense at any time and was very alert to her. As for An Shun, he must watch from the side and keep a close eye on her every move. Whenever Jiang Yingyue had any abnormal movements, An Shun could kill her on the spot.
Jiang Yingyue knew the two of them were wary of her, but she looked ignorant and ignorant. She served her every day and did her best, and did not dare to slack off. As time goes by, not to mention Anshun, even Wanyan Bupo was touched. At this time, who can not be afraid of dirt or fatigue? She took care of him so thoughtfully and meticulously with the threat of death? Only Anshun, who had followed him for half his life, and the woman in front of her.
Jiang Yingyue was a loyal or a traitor, and he was a little confused, but seeing that the other party fed him food, medicine, scrubbing his body, and even cleaning up the filth of his vomiting, his suspicion of Jiang Yingyue was gradually fading away, and his attitude towards her was gentler every day, and he became more respectful as before.
Jiang Yingyue saw it and smiled satisfied in her heart. She took care of Wanyan Bupo and became more considerate, just to the point of meticulousness. She believed that when Wanyan Bupo recovered and the Lishan Palace was released from ban, she would eventually turn the world and change the world.
In her proud position, Wanyan Bubo's condition worsened again. More and more palace people fell ill every day, and even two imperial doctors lay down. The aura of despair once again enveloped Mount Li.
At this moment, when I went to Beijing, the news that the emperor was infected with typhoid fever came out from some corner, and spread throughout the capital overnight. The princes in the capital were ready to move, and all the court officials were in danger.
The Prime Minister and Prince Zhongshun mobilized 50,000 troops to gather in the suburbs of Beijing, issued a decree to kill those who were unauthorized, and killed hundreds of those who were unmoved on the spot to serve as a warning. The Empress Dowager also immediately put down the wives, concubines and children of King J and King Wei, and the legitimate wives and sons of the princes were also detained in Cining Palace and were not allowed to leave.
After a series of iron-blooded means were implemented, Shangjing finally returned to peace.
This is the tranquility before the storm. The Queen Mother knew very well that if the emperor died, there would be a bloody storm in the capital. But if she really reached such a situation, she would no longer be able to control it. Therefore, she did not think deeply and only focused on the person who leaked the news. If this person asked her to find out, she would definitely make the other party worse than death.
The empress dowager turned over the secret investigation report handed over by the guards and sneered coldly. What a Rou Concubine. Since she can't control her tongue, she'll cut it!
After thinking about it, the Empress Dowager threw the secret investigation report on the table and ordered the guards, "Go, tied up Concubine Rou, cut off her tongue, throw it into the cold palace, and declare it all over the palace. This is the end of those who are witch-spoken!"
The guard nodded and took the order and left. Not long after he left, a message of "The Crown Princess's request for a visit" came from outside the hall.
The queen mother raised her eyebrows, looked surprised, raised her hand and ordered, "Please hurry up."
Ouyang Huiru hurried into the hall, without waiting to stand firm, knelt at the foot of the empress dowager, kowtowed and cried with tears in her eyes, "Grandmother, is it true that the father is seriously ill? Is the father still in Mount Li? Huiru is willing to take care of her father, please send Huiru over!"
She hadn't seen Wanyan Bupo for half a month, and she felt a little ominous premonition. At this moment, rumors of the emperor being infected with typhoid fever were rampant, and she remembered the plot of Wanyan Bupo in the original drama.
Unexpectedly, the plot would come so suddenly. Half a month passed, and she didn't get any news. Although she knew that Wanyan Bupo would be fine and Jiang Yingyue would take good care of him, her hidden pain, longing, and worry in her heart did not decrease at all.
At this time, she didn't expect to destroy Jiang Yingyue's plan. Her first reaction was that she had to accompany her father and watch him heal with her own eyes. Therefore, she ran to Cining Palace without thinking and made this request.
"Silly child, do you know what you are talking about? The emperor has typhoid fever, not wind and cold." The empress dowager helped Ouyang Huiru up, wiped her tears away, and said with heartache.
"The granddaughter-in-law knows. The granddaughter-in-law is not afraid. The emperor and grandmother, please!" Ouyang Huiru nodded firmly and begged.
The father was able to protect her with all his might in times of crisis. It was unreasonable that the father was in trouble, but she fled far away. Although there was also the idea of obstructing Jiang Yingyue, this thought flashed in her heart and soon disappeared. She was thinking about her father's body, thinking about whether he had lost weight, whether he had a fever, and whether he could sleep peacefully. He was worried about one thing after another, and he accumulated more and more. If she didn't watch it with her own eyes, she thought that she would be crazy by these random thoughts.
Only then did she realize that over the past few months, her feelings for her father had become so deep that she had lost the convenience of life.
The Queen Mother stared at Ouyang Huiru's sincere eyes, and the great wizard's words "destined to be a noble man" slid across her mind like lightning. The Queen Mother smiled slightly, gave up the idea of persuading her, patted her shoulder lovingly, and said warmly, "Okay, the Ai family will send someone to you now."
Standing in front of the palace gate, watching Ouyang Huiru's carriage go away, the empress dowager's eyes empty and murmured, "Eqi, is the Ai family too selfish? What if there is something wrong with this child..." Between the parent-child and the granddaughter-in-law, the empress dowager still chose the parent-child. She felt a little regretful, but had to suppress it.
"Don't worry, the Empress Dowager, the Crown Princess is very happy, and there will be no trouble. With the Crown Princess' care, the Emperor will not be troubled. They will definitely be able to return to the palace safely." Madam Eqi comforted.
The queen mother was in a happy heart and smiled, "Yeah, you're right. Xiaoru is the destined nobleman of the emperor. At this time, she can abandon life and death and follow the emperor with all her heart. E Qi, this is the woman worthy of standing by the emperor. Our Dajin Zheng needs such a mother of the country!"
E Qi lowered her head and did not dare to comment, but her heart was overturned. Then a flash of inspiration flashed and she suddenly realized: The Queen Mother actually had such an idea! No wonder she has made frequent moves to rectify the harem recently! This is paving the way for the Crown Princess!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ouyang Huiru, with a large number of attendants who were proficient in pharmacology and a few carriages, rushed to the Lishan Palace with a horse and whipped it. She took the empress dowager's handwriting and walked through the heavy guards of her personal guards, and stepped into the palace gate without hesitation.
With the empress dowager's instructions, she arrived at Qiankun Palace unimpeded.
"Too...the princess?" Anshun, who was stepping out of the hall gate and preparing to go to the pharmacy to check, suddenly met Ouyang Huiru who was walking over Feng Fenghuohuo. She was stunned for a moment, rubbed her eyes, and asked hesitantly.
At this extraordinary moment, how could the Crown Princess come? Didn’t she know that this trip was extremely dangerous and life-threatening? In this Lishan Palace, how many people were thinking about escaping from the scene, so how could they come to die? He might have heard too much of the emperor’s dream of calling the Crown Princess at night and had hallucinations, and must be!
After Anshun called him, he didn't even politely. He walked towards the pharmacy with a blank face.
"Anshun, what's wrong with Father?" Ouyang Huiru was anxious to know the situation, and did not care about the gains and losses. She stepped forward and grabbed his arm and asked.
The force on the arm was very fierce, and it hurt to pinch Anshun, which shows the eagerness of the visitor.
Is the Crown Princess real? Not an illusion? An Shun was a little surprised.
Seeing that Anshun was just staring blankly and did not answer, Ouyang Huiru shook his arm away, lifted up the hem of her skirt, threw away all the etiquette and rules, and ran towards the inner hall with great strides.
"Father!" Running into the inner hall and pushing away the palace maid who was serving in front of the bed, Ouyang Huiru knelt down beside Wanyan Bubo's bed, tightened his palm, and shouted with a choked voice. As soon as the voice fell, big tears slid down from her jade-like cheeks and slapped on the back of Wanyan Bubo's hand.
