Chapter 255 Encouraging My Mother to Pursue True Love 7
When Ji Qiancheng learned of the fifth prince's death, the hairpin in her hand slipped and shattered into pieces.
"how come?"
She murmured, "How could the Fifth Prince die?"
In the book, this younger brother finally ascended the throne. How could he die so suddenly?
If he dies, will the new emperor who ascends the throne still support her?
Before she could figure it out, Liu Huan'er from the palace sent a message asking her to come to the palace.
Ji Qiancheng thought that Liu Huan'er wanted to discuss the matter of the fifth prince with her, so she didn't bother to fight with the virtuous king and hurried into the palace.
When she saw Liu Huan'er, she was hugged by her. Her neck was wet with tears. She couldn't help but hide away in disgust.
"Cheng'er, your brother died of poisoning."
"That poison is called a swindler."
He kept having the most terrifying dream of his life in his sleep, and died in pain after twelve hours. There was no medicine to cure it.
When her prince died, his skin was covered in blood, his mouth was wide open, and his face was distorted.
The machine.
Ji Qiancheng was shocked. How could she remember that this was a poison secretly hidden in Prince Xian's mansion, which Prince Xian obtained accidentally. It was extremely toxic and there was no antidote.
How could it be... a machine?
Her mind was in a mess, which Liu Huaner thought meant she was guilty.
A cold look flashed in her eyes, then she showed a kind smile and touched Ji Qiancheng's head.
"Cheng'er, mother hasn't asked you yet, how are you doing in the Xianwang Mansion?"
"I'm doing well. My husband treats me very well."
Ji Qiancheng answered subconsciously.
She started to believe it after hearing it so many times.
Liu Huan'er's smile became softer. "That's good. I'm relieved that you're doing well."
Ji Qiancheng stayed in the palace until the hour of You before returning. Liu Huan'er kept talking to her affectionately, and the mother and daughter seemed to have returned to the time before the marriage.
When Ji Qiancheng left the palace, she was no longer worried.
The fifth prince was dead, and she had already hinted to Liu Huan'er to have another child. After all, her father was in his prime, so there was still enough time to raise another prince.
When the new royal brother is born, she will be able to cultivate a good relationship with him and make him support her as the royal sister.
As for how to get pregnant and how to give birth to another prince, that is Liu Huan'er's own business. As a concubine, she can't even do this, which can only be said to be incompetent.
When Ji Qiancheng returned to Prince Xian's mansion, he was upset to learn that Prince Xian was still fooling around with those maids.
She actually used to think that the wise king was affectionate, bah!
It was not until she got married that she found out that the virtuous prince did not have a princess, but all the good-looking maids in the virtuous prince's mansion were his concubines.
Although the emperor had many concubines, at least they were well fed and well-drinking, and were served by palace maids and eunuchs when going out. The virtuous king's women warmed the bed at night and worked during the day. This was simply a way to squander the fighting power of men, just like modern old men marrying nannies to save money and effort.
How could such a scumbag be worthy of me?
Ji Qiancheng felt very aggrieved.
But no matter how aggrieved or how much she looked down upon the virtuous king, she was now the virtuous king's wife and would never allow other women to share a man with her!
Ji Qiancheng was very angry. When he woke up the next day, he found that there were many small pimples on his face. They were not obvious, but they were densely packed and looked scary.
The local doctor came to take a look, and he said that it was caused by excessive liver fire, internal heat, and external toxic evil.
After a few days, the pimples on her face disappeared, and Ji Qiancheng recovered and went to the virtuous king with her maid.
Everyone in the palace knew that she, the princess, was not favored by the prince and had not yet consummated her marriage with the virtuous king. They often laughed at her behind her back.
The couple argued for a while. When they came back, the pimples on Ji Qiancheng's face that had disappeared quickly reappeared, becoming bigger and redder than before.
Ji Qiancheng's heart was trembling as he looked at the bronze mirror.
"House doctor! Quick, go find the house doctor!"
This time, the court physician could not diagnose the cause and tactfully suggested that she go to the palace to see the imperial physician.
As a result, the imperial physician came and said that she was poisoned.
"This poison needs to be applied several times a day to allow it to fully absorb into the skin. Princess, think carefully about who gave you this poison."
Ji Qiancheng couldn't recall, and then he heard the imperial physician say, "This poison is called Peach Blossom Tribulation. It's a beautiful name, but it's extremely vicious. If we don't find an antidote, the poison bumps on the princess's face will grow larger and larger until they ulcerate and break through the skin. Wherever the poison flows, her body will rot. In the end, there will be no healthy flesh left on her body, and she will die of stink, pain, and itching all over."
"This peach blossom disaster is just like its name, it is the fragrance of peach blossoms."
"Peach Blossom..."
Ji Qiancheng's eyes suddenly widened: "Peach Blossom?"
A few days ago, she went to the palace because of the Fifth Prince's affairs and stayed at Liu Huan'er's for almost the entire day, returning only in the evening. During this time, Liu Huan'er had repeatedly touched her face, and it carried a faint scent of peach blossoms.
The imperial physician wiped his sweat and retired.
He didn't understand this poison. It was recorded in the ancient medical book that the emperor gave him a few days ago. Who would have thought that he would encounter it today? The antidote for this poison can only be prepared by the person who poisoned it. The ingredients and dosage of each peach blossom disaster are different. If they are not prepared according to the proportion, it will only accelerate the death of the poisoned person.
Ji Qiancheng caused such a big commotion that the virtuous king also got the news. When he stepped into Ji Qiancheng's yard for the first time, he thought to himself that this woman must be so happy.
Ji Qiancheng was seen covered with a white veil, preparing to enter the palace, cursing something obscene.
Listening carefully, I found that he was actually scolding Liu Huaner.
How could this wise king tolerate this?
"Shut up, my king!"
"Shut up?"
Ji Qiancheng sneered: "Why, do you think Liu Huan'er is a good person? She poisoned me! She even poisoned her own daughter! She is a vicious woman with a heart of a snake and a scorpion!"
"presumptuous!"
The wise king slapped her in the face, knocking off her veil. Seeing her face full of uneven bumps and red pimples, he shuddered in disgust.
"Why did you become like this?"
Ji Qiancheng's face flushed red, and her fingers gripping the veil so tightly that they turned white.
"Don't you just like Liu Huan'er? Don't worry, when I come to the palace this time, I will help you publicize your feelings in front of the emperor. Maybe when the emperor is in a good mood, he will give Liu Huan'er to you."
This is complete bullshit.
If the emperor knew about his affair with Liu Huan'er, both of them would be killed.
The virtuous king ordered his men to stop Ji Qiancheng and not let her go out.
"You crazy woman, what are you talking about? This prince and Xiurong are innocent, how can you slander us like this?"
"Just stay in the courtyard and reflect on yourself. In my opinion, the pimples on your face are a reflection of your evil mind! I'll have someone bring a Buddha statue over. If you eat vegetarian food and chant Buddhist scriptures every day, maybe you'll feel better."
After saying that, he turned around and walked out, ignoring Ji Qiancheng's angry scolding.
He couldn't help but rub the palm of his hand that hit Ji Qiancheng on his robe. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he felt his palm was very itchy.
Ji Qiancheng was unable to enter the palace to ask Liu Huaner for the antidote, and was very anxious. The imperial physician said that only the person who poisoned her face had the antidote.
She gathered the servants she brought from the palace and prepared to force her way out, but at this moment the eunuchs from the palace came to her door.
Liu Xiurong from the palace died.
