Mu Siyu opened her eyes and saw Lu Zhiyun crying, and she immediately sat up anxiously.
"Who bullied you?"
Lu Zhiyun wiped away her tears and said, "No one bullied me. I just saw how hard it was for my mother to be pregnant with my little brother, and I felt bad when I thought about how hard it was for my mother to be pregnant with us."
"Silly boy..." Mu Siyu breathed a sigh of relief, "As a mother, being pregnant for ten months is not a hardship, but a blessing from God. Think about it, the child grows up slowly in your belly during this time.
, when he is born, will the feeling of blood connection be particularly happy? This is something that men can never empathize with."
"Mom, are you hungry? I'll get you something to eat."
"Not hungry."
Mu Siyu frowned.
Why does she still have no strength?
Logically speaking, after resting for so long, I have already recharged my energy, so I shouldn't be so exhausted.
"Where's your dad?"
"Still in the study."
"I'll go see him."
They were hiding something from her.
There is something wrong with her body. This is definitely not a symptom of pregnancy. Even if she is carrying twins, triplets, or even quadruplets, this should not be the case.
"Mom, I'll call dad over here. Don't go over there." Lu Zhiyun grabbed Mu Siyu and shouted outside: "Here comes someone..."
Lu Yi rushed over and saw that Mu Siyu was awake. He touched the broken hair beside her ear and asked, "What do you want to eat?"
"Xiao Yun'er, you go back to your room first. Mom has something to say to your father."
"I want to be with my mother."
Lu Zhiyun felt particularly insecure at this time.
She wanted to ask Lu Yi about the antidote, but in front of Mu Siyu, she did not dare to reveal that she already knew the truth.
"Your mother also needs to rest. Be obedient and come see your mother tomorrow," Lu Yi said.
Lu Zhiyun was reluctant to leave, but finally left.
As soon as she left, Mu Siyu got straight to the point: "What did you hide from me?"
Lu Yi expected that he wouldn't be able to hide it for long. He never thought of hiding it from her forever, after all, she was so smart.
Now that the antidote has been found and the crisis has been resolved, telling her won't have much impact.
"You've been poisoned."
Mu Siyu was calm.
At least it's calm on the surface.
"What did the doctor say?"
"This is a chronic poison, and the antidote is being prepared. But don't worry, there will definitely be no problem."
"That's fine."
Lu Yi pinched her face: "I didn't want you to think wildly, but you are so calm, are you too arrogant?"
"I believe you! If you say there is an antidote, that means I can't die. Since I can't die, there's nothing to worry about."
"The poison comes from your hairpin. That hairpin was given by me. You wear it often, so it gradually poisons your hair. Hairpins are not something that everyone can come into contact with. Your two girls are the most suspicious, but they are both
It was carefully selected by Xia Kun. After this period of observation, there is no sign of cheating. Think about it, besides your girl and you, who else has touched your hairpin?"
"Hairpin..." Mu Siyu touched the top of her head.
It's already empty.
She put down her arms and said: "Since you gave me that hairpin, I have worn it every day. I usually dress up in Chanyi and Shangzhi, and other girls have no chance to touch it."
"Have you ever forgotten to wear it?"
"No."
"Don't think about it, I will investigate clearly."
"I remembered something." Mu Siyu said, "Not long ago, I just completed the task of the small Buddhist hall. Qin Meiren from Ganlu Palace asked me to help her open a box. I opened it with a hairpin."
"Beautiful Qin..."
The imperial doctor's antidote hadn't been prepared yet, and Mu Siyu's health was getting worse and worse, and it looked like she couldn't even get out of bed.
Lu Yi did not dare to leave Mu Siyu for a moment.
However, there was a rumor in the palace that he had to enter the palace.
Not long after entering the palace, he came out again.
It turned out that there was a problem with the moon viewing platform in charge of the Ministry of Industry, and the adults in charge of the project were fined and imprisoned. The emperor somehow thought of Mu Siyu and asked Lu Yi to bring Mu Siyu into the palace.
She is in charge of this project.
Of course Lu Yi refused.
"You rejected the emperor, wouldn't the emperor want to blame you?"
"I said you are sick and can't get out of bed. No matter how stupid the emperor is, he can't send someone to carry you into the palace, can he?"
"Master, someone is coming from the palace." The eunuch's voice came from outside.
Lu Yi frowned and looked at Mu Siyu: "I'll go take a look."
"It seems that I have a crow's mouth. I am afraid that I am right, and the people in the palace really carried me into the palace."
"You can't move now." Lu Yi held her shoulders, "Listen to me, I won't let them take you away."
Mu Siyu's poison has not been cured yet, and she is already very weak. If she continues to suffer like this, she may not be able to leave the womb even with the child in her belly.
Not to mention that it wasn't solved, even if it was solved, she wouldn't be able to move around casually for a while.
Lu Yi went to deal with the people sent by the palace.
"Chanyi, go to the lobby and take a look. If you have any news, remember to report it."
"yes."
After a while, Chanyi came back and said: "The master tripped the eunuch, and within about a moment of burning incense, someone else came from the palace and called the eunuch back."
"It seems I don't have to enter the palace."
"Yes."
"The master is so powerful," said Shang Zhi, "He said that my wife does not need to enter the palace, so my wife does not need to enter the palace."
"You can't say these things outside." Mu Siyu lay back, "Besides, you go and see how the imperial doctor is doing. I don't know if Dao Dao is telling the truth, so you can go and find out."
"What? Could it be that my husband would lie to you?" Lu Yi opened the door and came in.
"No..." Mu Siyu stretched out her hand towards him, "Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Lu. Tell me, how did you drive him away?"
"As long as the people in the palace have no time to look after the moon viewing platform." Lu Yi said calmly, "The emperor has taken too many pills and often feels uncomfortable. If he is not feeling well, how can he be in the mood to admire the moon?"
"treacherous."
"This is wisdom." Lu Yi said, "Lie down quickly and don't run around anymore."
If this fatuous emperor had not been of great use to him, he would not be here today.
If the emperor angers him one day, I'm afraid his emperor's destiny will come to an end.
"Zhiqian, go and urge the imperial doctor." Lu Yi said, "Ask him what else he lacks. If there is nothing missing, hurry up and prepare the antidote."
Lu Zhiqian rushed to the imperial doctor's residence.
That night, the imperial doctor gave Mu Siyu the antidote.
The imperial doctor stayed in the Lu Mansion and waited in the guest room next door, observing her body's reaction. On the second day, the imperial doctor could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
He had a premonition that if Mrs. Lu was cured, he would enjoy endless glory and wealth in his life. If he had not cured Mrs. Lu, he was afraid that his life would end today.
"Doctor, the child in my belly..."
"Don't worry, madam, there will definitely be no problem." The imperial doctor said, "During this period, I will use dietary therapy to eliminate the remaining toxins and replenish the child's body."
"Then I'll trouble you."
The imperial doctor continued to treat Mu Siyu for half a month, and the remaining poison was finally eliminated, and Mu Siyu could move around normally.
At this time, Qin Lian'er touched her cheek, looked at herself in the mirror, and screamed.
"ah……"
She brushed the mirror off the table.
"My face..."
Her face was severely ulcerated and she looked like a ghost. If she had such a face, let alone being favored, she would be beheaded by the emperor soon.
The maid next to her looked at her tremblingly.
"Master, calm down. Let's ask the doctor to come and take a look. He will definitely be cured."
Qin Lian'er clenched her fists: "Why? Why is my face like this when she is not dead?"
"Who's not dead?" A cold voice sounded.
"Who?" Qin Lian'er looked around warily.
An old nun walked in and said to Qin Lian'er: "My lord asked me to convey this to the girl. This is just the beginning. The girl must hold on, otherwise it won't be fun."
"Lu Yi?!"
"It seems that you have not wronged the girl. Mrs. Lu's body is your fault, so you don't have to worry about dealing with the wrong person." The old woman said, "Is the girl getting tired of living? Mrs. Lu has nothing to do with you.
Qin Wuqiu, why did you want to harm her? But that's not important, even if you are willing to stop now, I won't let you go."
"Master..." the maid said, "Why did you offend Mr. Lu? What should we do now?"
Qin Lian'er's face was ferocious: "You should step back first."
After the maid left, Qin Lian'er took out something from the cabinet.
"It's on fire..."
There is a fire in the palace.
The most favored Qin Meier in Ganlu Palace was burned to death in a fire.
To the emperor, she was just a woman and left no trace at all.
To other palace people, an ordinary beauty could be as much or as little as the palace wanted, and soon no one cared about such a thing.
Lu family. Lu Yi learned the news from the palace and asked: "Have you seen the body?"
"I saw it." Lu Zhiqian said, "The news came from the palace that Qin Mei'er couldn't bear the blow after being disfigured, so she stayed alone in the room, and then she set fire to herself."
"Check again." Lu Yi said, "The fire came in a strange way, and the man died in a strange way."
He set fire to himself as soon as he was exposed. It seemed that he was so afraid of him that he burned himself to death, but Lu Yi did not feel that he had such intimidating power.
Xia Kun came to investigate this matter personally.
"The fire in the palace was indeed strange. It is certain that the man set the fire by himself, but it has not been found out so far whether he escaped from the palace. One thing is certain, that is, the man did not die.
Although that corpse is very similar to hers, there are records of fractures on that corpse, and Beauty Qin has no fractures, so it is not her corpse."
"There is someone behind her."
"Of course. Without someone, she wouldn't be so favored among so many women. Although her appearance is pretty good, there are still people better than her."
"Check again."
"I have actually found some clues, but I can't find her and there is no way to confirm it. Do you want to listen to what I found?"
"Tell me and listen."
"That Qin Lian'er is not the real Qin Lian'er. One of the medicines she often takes is to maintain her appearance. In fact, she has changed her face, and her true identity..."
"Don't show off."
"That person is an acquaintance of yours," Xia Kun said, "Mu Sijiao, do you remember her? In terms of blood, she is our Madam Lu's cousin."
"It's her!" Lu Yi was really surprised this time.
Xia Kun took a sip of tea and said calmly: "It's her. I just wanted to ask her to confirm this matter this time, but it turned out that you didn't have anything to do. You went to scare her and just scared her away. Now I don't know what happened."
Looking for her."
"I originally wanted her to have trouble sleeping and eating, and she would live in fear every day after that. I never thought that she had some tricks up her sleeve, so she just set fire to the place and faked her death to escape my surveillance."
"How did a little village girl become the emperor's woman? Have you ever thought about what this Mu Sijiao has experienced in these years, or who arranged her?"
The prince? The second prince? Mr. Jiang? Or those important ministers who want to fight for power?
"She won't go far, at least she won't leave the capital." Lu Yi said, "If she is ambitious enough, she might still be in the palace. The most dangerous place is the safest place."
Mu Siyu squirted out a mouthful of water.
She wiped the water stains from the corner of her mouth and looked at Lu Yi in disbelief.
"You said that Beauty Qin is Mu Sijiao?"
Is it possible?
The two faces are completely different.
That Qin Lian'er's appearance is more beautiful and pure, in modern terms, she is the innocent school beauty type. Mu Sijiao is just a village girl, with average appearance and vulgar temperament.
The way Qin Lian'er spoke softly came to her mind.
"Actually, if I think about it carefully, when I first met her, I always felt that the way she looked at me was sinister." Mu Siyu said, "She disguised herself very well after that. She tried her best to get close to me.
He tried to find a way to gain my trust, but it turned out that everything was done to make me take it lightly, and then he poisoned my hairpin without anyone noticing, almost killing me and two others."
"What she didn't expect was that there would be someone around you at any time. Not to mention the two girls' good skills, but also the secret guards secretly protecting you. She didn't have a chance to do anything, so she used poison to hurt your body. She also
I know you very well and know how you turn on the switch, otherwise I wouldn't have directly smeared poison into the keyhole of the box and passed the poison to the hairpin."
After Lu Yi left, Mu Siyu got out of bed and walked around slowly.
My belly is already so big that I will be able to unload it in another two months.
She was quite relaxed at first, but after experiencing this incident, she began to become nervous.
Like most mothers, she was thinking wildly, worrying that the poisoning incident would affect the health of the child in her belly. At this time, she could not relax for a moment unless she gave birth to him and confirmed that there was nothing wrong with his body.
"Madam, we have recently hired new servants in our house." Chanyi said, "We also have two more servants in the yard."
Mu Siyu stood in front of the window, looking at the unfamiliar servants outside.
"Why is there still a girl?"
"My master arranged it," Chanyi said. "My servant guesses that my master is deliberately luring the snake out of his hole. But don't worry, madam, I will definitely keep a close eye on you and won't let anyone get close to you."
