Chapter 296 Dam Burst
Jixiang followed Wang Yu's words and didn't care about riding horses or anything else. He took the four people that Wang Yu had selected and rushed to the palace.
In order not to attract the attention of Concubine Qi, before returning to the palace, Jixiang specially asked the four people to change into eunuchs' clothes, as if they had brought back four eunuchs from the Prince's Mansion.
After returning, he handed the person over to Minglu and asked him to secretly arrange these four people.
When Jixiang returned to Su Qingqing's palace, it was already dusk. Su Qingqing was having dinner and saw her come in with a gloomy face, "Where did you go to play? Did you go to Wang Yu to play horse racing again?"
Jixiang didn't mention the matter of the guard, but told Su Qingqing everything about the bracelet.
"… Madam, don't worry about whether this thing was brought in by Concubine Qi. Anyway, the person who made this bracelet must have known that you were pregnant, and she intended to harm the child in your belly."
Although Su Qingqing had always had the idea of aborting the child at a critical moment since she became pregnant, when she heard Jixiang's words, she subconsciously touched her lower abdomen and made a protective gesture.
She can choose to sacrifice her child for the sake of her family and country, but that doesn't mean others can care about her child like this.
A mother is strong.
This sentence has never changed from ancient times to the present.
Her desire to protect the child was completely aroused the moment Jixiang said this.
"You should go out of the palace tomorrow and find the mother of Suihonglou and ask her to make me another bracelet exactly like that one." Su Qingqing's eyes were cold and there was a kind of sneer on the corners of her mouth.
Jixiang had fought several battles with Su Qingqing, and she knew that every time Su Qingqing had this expression, it meant she had the intention to kill.
I immediately accepted the order.
The girls in Suihonglou can be regarded as the top girls in the whole capital. Their food and drink expenses are no worse than those of the ladies in the noble mansions. Not to mention the expenses for clothes, even the pearl flowers on their heads are custom-made by craftsmen asked by Mother Du.
Later, as more and more custom-made items were placed, Suihonglou simply hired its own craftsmen to make all kinds of jewelry specifically for the girls in Suihonglou.
The four top stars of Suihonglou are proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. When they have nothing to do, the four of them like to get together to design some styles and have the craftsmen make them.
It only took two days for the bracelet to be delivered to Su Qingqing again.
Rong Que looked at the coral red bracelet on Su Qingqing's wrist, and couldn't help but hold her hand, and whispered something shy in her ear, "...When we do it tonight , wear this."
Su Qingqing raised her foot and kicked him aside, "Have you finished reviewing all the memorials?"
Rong Que hugged the man with a smile, "Reviewing memorials won't stop me from thinking about a wife. I'm a young man, isn't it normal to think about these things? If I can't eat real meat, can't I eat vegetarian meatballs?"
Su Qingqing almost doubted whether the throne was poisonous. How could a good person become a gangster after ascending the throne?
Being held by Rong Que, Su Qingqing leaned against his strong chest, feeling the fiery heat on her back. She wanted to talk about the child several times, but she swallowed the words back every time. "She should be planning to do it at the Hundred Flowers Festival banquet."
Rong Que rubbed his chin on Su Qingqing's hair, and held her hand to look at the bright red coral beads. "It's better to move. She has been so quiet all the time, which makes me feel uneasy. If she moves, we can know more clearly what she is going to do. It's settled then. She will wear this tonight."
Su Qingqing stepped on Rong Que's foot. How could she change her mind in any way?
"Is there any progress with Doctor Sun?"
Rong Que, the woman in the cold palace, was handed over to Doctor Sun and has been recuperating for a few days.
"Doctor Sun said that we can interrogate him tomorrow. Let's see what happens tomorrow. Will you go with me?"
As the two were talking, auspicious voices rang out from outside, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"
Her voice was anxious and full of urgency. Rong Que was stunned, and then he loosened his arms around Su Qingqing and sat down on the chair next to him like a normal person.
Su Qingqing glanced at Rong Que, straightened her hair and the collar that was messed up by Rong Que, and said, "Come in."
The outer door was pushed open, and Jixiang did not go directly into the inner room. She hurriedly reported through a beaded curtain, "Your Majesty, Madam, it's not good. Doctor Sun sent a message saying that something happened."
Doctor Sun passed on the message, and it was obvious who had gotten into trouble.
Rong Que's face suddenly changed and he stood up abruptly.
Su Qingqing was also surprised.
These days, on the surface, it was the director of the Imperial Medical Bureau who was still treating the woman in the cold palace, but in fact, the medicine that the woman drank was all prepared by Doctor Sun.
Rong Que brought Su Qingqing and went straight to the residence of the director of the Imperial Hospital with great fanfare.
Rong Que allocated a small courtyard specifically for him in the palace.
As soon as they entered, they smelled a strong smell of blood. The director of the Imperial Hospital stood in the yard with a pale face. Rong Que and Su Qingqing were together. He staggered forward with weak legs, knelt on the ground, kowtowed and admitted his guilt.
Rong Que didn't give him time to say anything and went straight into the house.
In the house.
The body of the woman in the cold palace was lying on the ground, with blood spilling onto half of the floor. Her eyes were wide open, her face full of fear, and black blood was oozing from the corners of her mouth. Su Qingqing was behind Rong Que and could see the body through the gap between Rong Que and the door.
The blood basically flows out from under the body.
This is like...
Heavy bleeding?
How could that be!
Su Qingqing suddenly turned to look at the director of the Imperial Hospital. The director's face was pale and trembling. "It's not metrorrhagia, but the symptoms are similar . She was poisoned."
Rong Que also retracted his gaze and looked grimly at the director of the Imperial Hospital.
On the surface, especially at this time, it is not appropriate to involve Doctor Sun in the accountability, so as to avoid putting the family of the Director of the Imperial Medical Bureau, young and old, who are controlled by Duke Xue, in danger.
The director of the Imperial Medical Bureau also understood Rong Que's intention.
The more grateful you are, the more regretful you will feel.
"You are responsible for all her food and expenses. You have to keep an eye on her twelve hours a day. How did she get poisoned?"
Minghe stood nearby, his expression also not looking very good.
He was responsible for the safety of the palace maid.
Now, people are dying right under his nose.
He watched the palace maid drink a glass of water, and after drinking it, she vomited blood and died suddenly.
He didn't even have a chance to save her. Large mouthfuls of blood gushed out of her mouth like a fountain, and the blood under her body was like a waterfall.
Rong Que glanced at Minghe. Minghe lowered his head and pursed his lips into a straight line.
Su Qingqing stood by and waited for the director of the Imperial Hospital to speak. Suddenly, something flashed through her mind and she turned around to look at the corpse inside again.
Rivers of blood!
Rivers of blood!
Isn’t this the same as the blood sacrifice back then!
Su Qingqing suddenly grabbed Rong Que's arm. Rong Que turned to look at her. Their eyes met. Su Qingqing shook her head very slightly, then she turned to the director of the Imperial Hospital and scolded him, "If you can't explain clearly how the accident happened... Minghe!"
Minghe was suddenly called by Su Qingqing. He was startled and fell to his knees.
He thought Su Qingqing was going to punish him.
"Go and transfer all the family members of the Imperial Hospital Director to the Heavenly Prison for me!"
The director of the Imperial Hospital was stunned for a moment, then he looked at Su Qingqing with gratitude, tears streaming down his face.
