Chapter 361 It turns out that Luo Jiuli was already prepared
"Is it possible that we have to wait until the imperial concubine is unconscious, her mouth and eyes are crooked, and she is hemiplegic before giving heavy medicine?"
The imperial doctor was frightened and hurriedly knelt down towards the Queen Mother.
"Wei Chen dare not."
The Queen Mother's face was gloomy and her heart was filled with hatred.
Just as he was about to speak, the emperor suddenly said:
"Just make the medicine according to Luo Jiuli's prescription. I spend money to support you trash, but it's not as good as a female doctor."
Luo Jiuli: Your Majesty! I thank you for always being able to make the final decision at the most critical moment.
The imperial doctor didn't dare to reply, so he nodded and said yes. He stood up and was about to go out, but Luo Jiuli stopped him again.
"Wait a moment."
Luo Jiuli waved his hand at Nan Zhu behind him.
Nan Zhu placed the medicine box on the table and opened it immediately.
Luo Jiuli took out a white cloth bag from the bottom of the medicine box, opened the bag, pulled out a long silver needle, and looked at the imperial doctor with a pair of shining smiling eyes.
"As the saying goes, a serious illness requires a big needle. The silver needle in my hand is called a long needle."
"If the imperial concubine has not woken up after taking the medicine, use this silver needle to prick the imperial concubine's human acupuncture point. It can wake up the imperial concubine and open her orifices, reconcile yin and yang, calm the nerves, relieve spasm and open the meridians."
"A two-pronged approach will ensure that the imperial concubine can wake up."
When the imperial doctor saw the long needle, some unknown panic flashed in his eyes.
Long needle, use a seven-inch long needle to prick the human center point. This Miss Luo Er is really smart.
But the Emperor and the Nine Kings were in front of him, and although he belonged to the Queen Mother, in this situation, he did not dare to say a word.
Xiao Mingxuan looked at the imperial doctor with a cold expression.
"What? Is it possible that we still have to wait until the emperor speaks?"
The imperial doctor glanced at the livid Queen Mother and stretched out her hand tremblingly.
"Snapped!"
Your Majesty, the Queen Mother couldn't bear it and she accidentally broke the tea cup in her hand.
Outside the palace, the moment Marquis Chongyang heard the sound of tea cups breaking, more than twenty guards from Changchun Palace were about to enter the palace.
He was blocked outside by the emperor's five shadow guards holding swords.
"Anyone who dares to enter the palace will be killed without mercy."
The leader of the Royal Shadow Guards wore a mask, and his appearance could not be seen clearly, but his voice was extremely cold.
Chongyang Hou raised his arm to stop the footsteps of the guards behind him.
Although the number of the Shadow Guards is small, each of them is a carefully selected strong person.
In addition, Qin Yin and Mo Han were brought in by Xiao Mingxuan on the other side, as well as Nan Zhu and Nan Xing beside Luo Jiuli.
If they had a big fight today, they wouldn't be very powerful.
As Chongyang Hou waved his hand, all the imperial guards behind him retreated.
"Coward."
Mo Han rolled his eyes at Marquis Chongyang and still stood upright.
Inside the palace.
The emperor looked at the broken tea cups and tea on the ground, put his hands behind his back, and stood up without saying a word, his expression cold and unpredictable.
"Mother, as you get older, you must respect yourself and maintain your moral character so that you can live your life well."
In front of so many people, the emperor's words were a slap in the face, which made the queen mother's face burn with embarrassment.
The emperor seemed to think that the slap was not harsh enough, and said nonchalantly:
"Otherwise, I'm afraid my mother won't be able to bear it if a white-haired person gives a black-haired person another chance."
When the Queen Mother heard this, her face instantly turned pale. If she wanted to speak a lesson, she was choked in her throat and could no longer utter a syllable.
After the emperor finished speaking, he turned around and left without even looking at the queen mother's face.
As soon as the concubines saw that the emperor had left and what was the use of staying here, they stood up one by one, hurriedly saluted, and went after the emperor.
Xiao Mingxuan and Luo Jiuli looked at each other and stood up.
"I forgot to tell the Queen Mother that a mourning hall has been set up in the Sima Mansion. If the Queen Mother has nothing serious, I will take Li'er to the Sima Mansion to express my condolences."
After saying that, he pulled Luo Jiuli, turned around and followed him out of the palace gate.
In the Changchun Palace, the air was stagnant for a long time.
The maids and eunuchs serving in front of the palace were kneeling on the ground, all of them with awe-inspiring hearts and pale faces.
While everyone in the palace was thinking in fear, Green Hairpin, who was waiting closely for the Queen Mother, suddenly shouted.
"Queen Mother."
While sitting down, the Queen Mother was so angry that she fainted for a moment.
The entire Changchun Palace was suddenly in chaos.
——
Compared to the chaos in Changchun Palace, Luo Jiuli's mood at this time was extremely smooth.
"very happy?"
Xiao Mingxuan lowered his head and looked at her, raising her eyebrows excitedly and looking relaxed and happy.
"Of course I'm happy. When I was leaving the house, I was still thinking about whether I should do something treasonous if the Empress Dowager pressed me every step of the way when I arrived at Changchun Palace."
Xiao Mingxuan lowered his eyes slightly.
"Oh! Something treasonous? What is it? Tell me."
Luo Jiuli looked at him.
"Your Majesty, do you really want to hear it?"
"Um."
Xiao Mingxuan nodded.
Luo Jiuli didn't intend to hide it from him, so he took out a transparent tube of liquid smaller than his thumb from his lapel.
"What is this? Poison?"
Xiao Mingxuan behaved extremely naturally. He even reached out to take the liquid in the hose and looked at it repeatedly.
He knew that Luo Jiuli had a secret. After all, the medicines and tools in her medicine cabinet were only increasing, and they were never used up no matter how much they were used.
Even things that didn't exist before will appear out of thin air just by turning around.
He once had suspicions and wanted to go and pry.
But that was only in the past. Now, he doesn't have any extra thoughts to pry into her secrets. He just wants to help her keep it and help her hide it.
Luo Jiuli shook his head.
"It's not a poison, it's a hallucinogenic drug."
After Luo Jiuli finished speaking, he took the potion from Xiao Mingxuan's hand, lowered his head and put it into the medicine box.
"I was thinking that a person with a gloomy mind like the Queen Mother has been struggling in the harem for most of her life, and even the former empress was defeated by her."
"Presumably, her hands were stained with blood, and she was involved in a life-threatening lawsuit."
"It's just that she was the Queen Mother, and the people who died in her hands were of low status, with no way out, and people who had no mercy from heaven, especially those eunuchs and palace maids."
Luo Jiuli's voice was low.
In this society, people are divided into three, six or nine grades. Men are slaves and women are maids. They are always at the bottom of society.
As for the eunuchs and maids who served their masters in the palace, they lost their most basic personality and freedom after entering the palace. They were dependent on others for life, dedicated to taking orders and working for others, and they were often purchased at one time.
discontinued or completely free of charge.
It can be said that once people in this era become slaves, they are more like "private objects" for the "master" to play with at will than living people.
"I am not one of those eunuchs. The palace maids let her learn from her."
"Don't push me too hard. If you really push me too hard, I'm afraid the dignity and filial piety that the Emperor has established for others will be destroyed by my own hands."
Fortunately, we didn't go that far today. With the emperor and the concubines present, and Xiao Mingxuan accompanying him, the Queen Mother was also wary.
