Chapter 1072 The great cause has not been completed
"Your Majesty, Aunt Xu just came back and said that she had copied the letter that the Crown Princess had hidden in her dressing box."
The queen's eyes lit up: "Send it up."
After the news about the Guanyin Temple reached Kunning Palace, the queen asked secret agent Xu Gu to investigate the queen.
Xu Gu was very skilled and secretly sneaked into the princess's bedroom and found a stack of secret letters.
I was just worried about being discovered, so I didn't read the letter carefully.
When the queen heard this, she naturally didn't want to miss anything suspicious, so she asked Aunt Xu to find another opportunity to get the letter back.
I saw her reading nearly ten letters quickly, and her face became increasingly angry. She slapped the armrest suddenly, "This is unreasonable! What does the Crown Princess want!"
The confidant nanny asked cautiously: "Mother, these letters..."
The queen sneered, "What are written on these dozen pieces of paper are all poems and articles written by the late prince!"
The Crown Princess was originally intended to be betrothed to the former Crown Prince as a concubine. She and the Left Prime Minister had already had a verbal engagement. When the Crown Princess got married, the royal family officially issued a decree to designate the Crown Princess as the former Crown Prince's concubine.
However, before the crown prince had a hairpin, something happened to the former crown prince. But she did not want to miss the power behind the left prime minister, so after Yan'er returned to Beijing, she sought the emperor's will to make the left prime minister's daughter the crown prince.
But who would have thought that after so many years, the Crown Princess would still collect poems and articles written by the former Crown Prince?
Could it be that the Crown Princess refused to give birth to an heir with Yan'er because she had always cared about the late Crown Prince?
No wonder the fortune-teller in the Guanyin Temple says that what the princess wants is to sign the fortune! What is the use of such a princess?
The queen was so angry that her face turned ferocious. If she hadn't been worried about the left prime minister, she would have wanted to delete the crown princess from the royal ultimatum! It's really hateful!
"Your Majesty, what should I do about this matter?" My close confidant was shocked.
The queen glanced at her: "Now is not a good time to deal with this matter."
Yan'er's great cause has not yet been accomplished, so she should not act rashly. However, she will not forget this account. There will always be a day of reckoning.
Two days later, as expected, many officials in the court wrote to the prince to participate in the Cuju competition that day.
The emperor had a headache, so he ordered the prince to enter the palace to meet the emperor.
At the same time, the Empress Dowager also sent people to the Prince's Mansion to spread the message, and Xuan Ye Fuxun came to the palace to see him.
The two simply took a carriage into the palace together. When they arrived at the gate of the palace, their father-in-law was already waiting: "His Royal Highness, Concubine Ye Fangfei, and Emperor Xuan will go directly to Cining Palace."
Ji Yannuo nodded: "Concubine Ye is pregnant, can you please invite a soft sedan?"
The father-in-law responded with a smile: "Your Highness, don't worry, the Queen Mother has already asked someone to prepare a soft sedan. Please ask the concubine to get on the sedan."
The group of people went to Cining Palace. The last few times Ye Fuxun went to Cining Palace, he always met with the Queen Mother and the Emperor at the same time.
This time when I entered the main hall of Cining Palace and saw the Queen Mother and the Emperor sitting on the main seat, I was not surprised at all.
She followed Ji Yannuo and bowed respectfully, and saw the Queen Mother looking at her with a smile and saying, "Axun is now three months pregnant. Is your health okay?"
"Thank you, Queen Mother, for thinking about me. I hope everything is fine with you."
Since she became pregnant, the Empress Dowager sent a lot of nourishing supplements to Mingyue Palace, and Ye Fuxun thanked her by the way.
Then the Queen Mother smiled and nodded: "Come here quickly to check the emperor's condition."
Ye Fuxun respectfully stepped forward to check. After this check, his face gradually became serious.
Looking at the Queen Mother and Ji Yannuo, I couldn't help but feel heartbroken.
The Emperor frowned slightly: "I have had occasional attacks at night recently, but has the poison spread?"
He knew his physical condition very well and was slightly mentally prepared.
Ye Fuxun frowned and thought for a moment: "Your Majesty, can you show me your recent food records?"
"Eunuch De." The emperor signaled to Eunuch De, who quickly left.
Not long after, a thick booklet came out: "Fei Fangfei, here are all the emperor's recent food records. Please check carefully."
Ye Fuxun nodded and took it, while Mr. De was so nervous that he wiped his sweat with his sleeves.
He is responsible for all the emperor's food and daily life, and all the meals he eats every day are inspected before being served. Is there any loophole that could be taken advantage of? His heart was beating wildly.
Ye Fuxun looked at it carefully, and his eyes suddenly focused on one place: "Eunuch De, the water chestnut pulp you drank after the meal, according to the records, you drank it three times in the last seven days?"
Eunuch De was excited: "Hui Niang, it is indeed true. This water chestnut is a tribute from the East China Sea. It has been inspected by the imperial physician. The water chestnut is mild in nature and the juice is sweet and rich. It stimulates body fluids and stimulates the appetite. It is most suitable to be made into pulp."
"The water chestnut is a good thing, but it is not suitable for the emperor to eat." Ye Fuxun put down the thick booklet, looked at the emperor and said, "Eating water chestnuts may cause toxicity in the emperor's body, so the emperor will feel unwell in recent days and nights.
"
The emperor suddenly sat up straight. The water chestnut is a fruit abundant in the East China Sea. Every year, several large carts are sent as tribute. Is this unintentional or intentional? However, now is not the time to delve into this matter.
"What is the current impact of the poison on the Emperor? Is there a way to solve it?" The Queen Mother looked tense.
Ye Fuxun nodded: "Back to your Majesty, the Emperor only drank the water chestnut pulp three times, so the problem is not serious. I will prescribe a prescription and you only need to take it for three days."
"In addition, I would like to make a list of foods that should not be eaten, and please go back and check it carefully."
Eunuch De nodded repeatedly, "It's over now." The emperor led Ji Yannuo out of Cining Palace and back to the imperial study.
"Did you know that in the past two days, three courtiers have written to express their opinions on the fact that you violated the Cuju Competition between Gu, Yan and Qi for the sake of Concubine Ye?"
The emperor walked behind the dragon case and sat down, throwing three booklets in front of Ji Yannuo.
Ji Yannuo took it, read it over and put it aside: "On that day, the eldest princess of Qi openly instigated her maid to pour the fruit tea in the tray on Ah Xun. Her thoughts were evil and her behavior was bad. Her ministers stepped forward to stop her behavior.
What's wrong?"
The emperor looked at him and said: "I know that you are concerned about Concubine Ye's health, but at that time King Qin happened to be passing by and came to the rescue, so why did you abandon the game and rush over? Wouldn't it be better to pursue this matter after the game is over?"
"I don't want anyone to bully Ah Xun." Ji Yannuo responded dully.
At that time, he was kicking a Cuju ball into the goal. He didn't want to turn around and see Ah Xun in chaos, so he couldn't care less.
"You..." The emperor smiled instead of getting angry, "Aren't you worried that you will undermine the eldest princess's face in public and affect the peace talks between Yan and Qi?"
"Impossible." Ji Yannuo looked at the emperor, "The hundred-year peace treaty was already agreed upon before the death of Emperor Qi Ren. The new emperor of Qi will never break the treaty. Father, there is no need to worry."
The emperor looked at Ji Yannuo with firm eyes and couldn't help but frowned: "I heard that in your prince's palace, Concubine Ye is the only one who has your heart?"
