?
After sending Lu Wushuang away, Xu Huiru pretended to be relieved and looked at Ye Zhen with a smile. "Princess, it must be the Imperial Consort who asked you to come here."
Ye Zhen smiled faintly and looked at Xu Huiru's face. "I don't know what is wrong with Imperial Consort Xian? Why didn't you ask the imperial physician to take your pulse? "
Xu Huiru's eyes flashed. How could she say that it was because Mo Rongzhan still refused to let her serve him in bed? She was so stifled that she became ill. If she went to the Imperial Physician for treatment, wouldn't that expose her virginity?
"I'm just a little tired. It's nothing serious." Xu Huiru said.
"Or, I'll take your pulse. If there's nothing wrong, it's fine." Ye Zhen felt that Lu Yaoyao's face did not look tired. She should be sick somewhere.
Xu Huiru thought that Lu Yaoyao was only a female doctor now, so she probably didn't have the ability to know that she was still a virgin from her pulse. It was good for her to take her pulse, and it could also shut people's mouths. Xu Huiru stretched out her hand.
Ye Zhen put her hand on Xu Huiru's pulse. It was slow and … She was secretly shocked. Why was Xu Huiru still a virgin?
"Yao Yao, how is this consort?" Xu Huiru asked with a smile.
"Oh, it's the Imperial Consort's monthly letter that came recently. I feel a little tired and have abdominal pain. If you don't want to call the imperial physician, just drink some brown sugar water." Ye Zhen quietly retracted her hand. She could probably guess why Xu Huiru was unwilling to call the imperial physician to see her.
Did she not want people to know that she was still a virgin? But why? Didn't Mo Rongzhan dote on her very much?
Ye Zhen was a little flustered at the thought of Mo Rongzhan.
Xu Huiru smiled and nodded. "This consort will let someone make some brown sugar tea in a while."
"Your Imperial Consort should pay more attention to rest." Ye Zhen smiled hastily and suppressed the chaos in her heart. She turned to look at the blood swallow next to her and frowned. "These blood swallow … are not for the Imperial Consort Xian. If Imperial Consort Xian wants to eat them, be more careful."
"Thank you for the reminder. Although the blood swallow is precious, this consort does not lack it." She would not eat the blood swallow sent by Lu Wushuang.
When Ye Zhen heard Xu Huiru's words, she knew that she was wary of Lu Wushuang. "Then I will not disturb your rest. I will take my leave first."
Xu Huiru personally sent her to the door. Watching Ye Zhen leave the palace, she turned around and took out the blood swallow. "Qian Lan, check if this blood swallow is poisonous."
Qianlan nodded lightly. "Yes, Your Highness."
Ye Zhen left Xinhe Palace and returned to the Lu family. She was not even willing to see Lu Wushuang. In the evening, news suddenly came from the palace that Consort Xu Xian was poisoned and unconscious. Her palace maid pointed out that she was poisoned by the blood swallow sent by Lu Wushuang. Lu Wushuang was arrested and interrogated by the Empress Dowager.
Lu Wushuang insisted on seeing Mo Rongzhan. When Mo Rongzhan arrived, she said that the blood swallows were not hers. They were given to her by Lu Yaoyao and she gave them to Xu Huiru.
The news quickly spread to the Lu family.
Old Madam Lu immediately asked someone to call Ye Zhen to the upper room.
In addition to Old Madam Lu, Lu Shiming, his wife, and Lu Lingzhi were all there. When Ye Zhen saw this scene, she guessed what happened.
Old Madam Lu told her what happened in the palace and asked with some concern, "Grandmother believes that you will not poison the Imperial Consort, but what is going on with those blood swallows?"
Lu Wushuang really poisoned those blood swallows! Ye Zhen chuckled. "Grandmother, I have been in the medical women's institute for so many days. Where did I get the blood swallows for the Imperial Consort? When I was about to leave the palace today, the Imperial Consort called me and said that she was going to visit Consort Xu Xian and asked me to accompany her. "
"Those blood swallows have nothing to do with you?" Lu Lingzhi frowned and looked at Ye Zhen. If anything happened to Consort Xu Xian, Yaoyao would surely be implicated.
Ye Zhen smiled faintly and said, "Eldest brother, do you think I am a fool? What kind of place is the palace? How can I bring these things in at will? Before I see the Imperial Consort, these blood swallows will be found out by my aunt in the palace. "
"What about what the Imperial Consort said?" Lu Shiming asked. Murdering a consort in the palace was a capital crime. He did not believe that his daughter would do such a thing.
"Isn't it obvious? Lu Wushuang wanted me to be a scapegoat. She murdered Xu Huiru and was afraid of being discovered, so she called me over. Unfortunately, the idea was good, but it was too stupid. "Ye Zhen said coldly.
Lu Lingzhi looked up at her, "Yaoyao, there may be a misunderstanding in this matter."
"What misunderstanding?" Ye Zhen asked faintly. Lu Wushuang knew that if the Lu family had to choose between them, they would definitely choose an Imperial Consort instead of her.
"Yan Zhi, you go to the palace." Old Madam Lu said wearily, "This matter is not up to Shuang 'er. Yaoyao has not been out of the palace for a few days. Where did she get the blood swallows? If those blood swallows are Shuang 'er's, the Ministry of Internal Affairs will ascend the throne and we will know it. "
They really spoiled Shuang 'er too much. Not only did she murder other consorts, but she also didn't let go of her own sister. Old Madam Lu felt physically and mentally exhausted. She was extremely disappointed with Lu Wushuang.
Lu Lingzhi was also in a complicated mood at this time. He knew very well that this matter had nothing to do with Yaoyao. But if Yaoyao was innocent, then Lu Wushuang was certainly not innocent. It was not easy to make her an Imperial Consort.
"Yaoyao, you also go to the palace and explain to the Empress Dowager and the Emperor." Pei Shi said. Her heart was burning with anger. What was wrong with Lu Wushuang? Didn't she know that by wronging Yaoyao like this, Yaoyao's life would be in danger?
She was simply too hateful! Did she think that the third branch was easy to bully?
"Third Aunt, I will go to the palace. It's so late. Yaoyao should stay at home." Lu Lingzhi said.
"Since this matter is related to Yaoyao, she naturally has to explain herself. She can't be wronged by others." Lu Shiming said in a deep voice.
Ye Zhen looked at them gratefully. When such a thing happened, they did not think of the honor of Imperial Consort Bo, but of her innocence. They would rather give up glory, splendor, and wealth to hold her. How could such care and sincerity not be moved?
Old Madam Lu said, "Let Yaoyao go with you."
Even if the Lu family wanted to protect Lu Wushuang, it was impossible. Stupidity was incurable. This time, Yaoyao was sacrificed to save Lu Wushuang. Next time, the whole Lu family would be buried with her. Although she was old, she still knew who to save and who not to save.
Lu Lingzhi looked at Ye Zhen and saw that the little girl's eyes were cold. She seemed to be hostile to him. He smiled bitterly in his heart. "Well, Yaoyao and I will go to the palace."
As soon as they walked out of the upper room, they saw Madam Lu running over with disheveled hair.
