Chapter 517
King Zhao: “…”
He opened the door silently and found Ji Yunqing's maid: "Go get some clothes for your master!"
"Here it is!"
Hemerocallis hurried over with a set of clothes in her hands.
She had prepared it long ago, but she was just anxious and couldn't get it in.
Without asking anyone else, King Zhao took the clothes in himself.
The time goes back to when King Zhao went to get his clothes.
Ji Yunqing glanced at the vase next to her. She wanted to make sure that the poisonous insect inside had not escaped.
The result was that with just one glance, she actually saw that the poisonous insects that were originally crawling out in all directions were actually crawling towards her.
She was suddenly startled.
Quickly shake the insect to shake this thing in.
However, the poisonous insect still persisted in crawling towards her.
Looking at the brazier in the middle of the room again, it had gone out. Ji Yunqing watched all the poisonous insects being burned to death.
These poisonous insects weren't fighting so hard just now... Ji Yunqing was thinking casually, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind.
"and many more!"
Seeing King Zhao walking towards this side, Ji Yunqing shouted.
Her loud shout surprised both people in the room.
"what happened?"
Ji Yunqing quickly placed the vase between the two of them, and then he saw this scene: the poisonous insects scrambled to crawl towards King Zhao without even looking at Ji Yunqing.
Seeing this scene, King Zhao understood what Ji Yunqing meant.
"Where did these bugs come from?"
Ji Yunqing didn't intend to fool him, and pointed directly at the brazier and said, "It crawled out from the clothes I was wearing before.
Look, there are quite a few of these dead bodies on the edge of the brazier over there."
When Ji Yunqing said this, he took his clothes, walked into the room, and changed his clothes quickly.
Then he opened the door and found the daylily from the door: "Go find a clean small bottle, I need it"
King Zhao went to see the brazier and saw that there were indeed many dead insects crowded together. There were also traces of burnt clothes and a strong smell lingering in the room.
It can be seen that Ji Yunqing did not lie.
His heart sank, and he looked at Ji Yunqing who had returned, and looked him up and down: "Do you have anything else on you?"
“It should be gone.”
Ji Yunqing shook his head: "But I still plan to take a shower."
She glanced at the brazier and said comfortingly, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. These things should be aimed at you. I just tried it and they didn't go into my body."
Concubine He who was listening on the side said: "..."
What kind of comfort is this?
Ji Yunqing is too bold.
I couldn't help but help to make up for it: "Your Majesty, Concubine Ji means that she will be fine, you don't have to worry about her"
After saying this, Concubine He wanted to slap herself in the face.
Why is she so talkative?
Fortunately, King Zhao did not intend to care about it. He continued to observe and found that the facts were indeed as Ji Yunqing said, and he did not climb up to Ji Yunfeng. He was slightly relieved.
I started to question her: “Why do you have these things on you?”
"I met Concubine Liu today."
Before King Zhao could get angry and question him, Ji Yunqing told him everything.
One sentence extinguished King Zhao's questioning fire.
"Seen in the mansion"
When we saw her in the palace, it turned out that Concubine Liu had sneaked in by herself, and the palace guards did not notice her.
Of course, the more likely possibility is that Concubine Liu had lived here for a period of time and bribed some people, which allowed her to come in.
Seeing Prince Zhao's unhappy expression, Ji Yunqing thought, the guards in the palace will definitely be very strict in the future, right?
Concubine He learned from Ji Yunqing's words that these insects should have been the work of Concubine Liu.
She couldn't help but feel cold: "Did she do anything else?"
"There shouldn't be anything else," Ji Yunqing reasonably guessed, "and this time Concubine Liu's move should be aimed at the prince, killing with a borrowed knife."
She is the unlucky knife.
Tu
It’s just that some people are really annoying. They are good at superficial things and seem affectionate and affectionate on the surface, but actually they want her dead behind her back.
After understanding the whole story, King Zhao was sure that Ji Yunqing had not lied to him.
After all, he had just received news that he had someone keeping an eye on the servants in the mansion who were involved with Concubine Liu had made unusual movements, so he hurried back.
What I didn't expect was that Concubine Liu entered the palace herself.
King Zhao looked at Concubine He and asked, "What are you doing here?"
Concubine He lowered her head and explained: "I am here, but there is nothing wrong, just a small matter."
She dared to make a scene in front of Ji Yunqing, but she didn't dare to disturb the prince.
King Zhao nodded and said: "It's just a small matter, why rush? Go back."
"Yes"
Concubine He said this and was about to leave.
"and many more"
Ji Yunqing stopped her and said, "Take out the letter."
Concubine He was confused. How could she dare to do that in front of the prince?
But when she saw King Zhao looking at her coldly, her heart tightened and she took out the letter hidden in her sleeve.
"This was found by the maid at the gate of my yard."
Ji Yunqing nodded, put a handkerchief on the envelope, took it over, and did not give it to King Zhao, but held it a little closer.
Sure enough, I smelled that faint fragrance again.
When Concubine He saw this, she couldn't help but shed the corners of her lips. Is she so disgusting?
Ji Yunqing had no time to comfort Concubine He's fragile heart. She asked Concubine He, "Did you use incense today?"
Concubine He shook her head and denied: "No, it has not been used recently."
Ever since I got pregnant, I stopped using all these perfumes and waters.
Later, when the child was born, Concubine He was depressed because she had no child and had no intention of using the child.
Only then did Ji Yunqing confirm it.
"Your Majesty, there is something on this letter. Ask the court doctor to come and take a look."
King Zhao wanted to go and receive it, but Ji Yunqing dodged.
"Your Highness, you'd better not take it yet. Think about it, that bug just now was going after you. What if this one has a similar effect?"
King Zhao did not insist, but said: "Put the letter on the table." She couldn't take it either, what if it was some medicine that was not so effective?
Ok.
Ji Yunqing listened to him, but in fact she didn't want to take it.
These are all risky things.
But she couldn't let King Zhao die in her hands.
In this way, she estimated that those who followed her would also be sent to death.
King Zhao's men came to invite him, and the palace doctor arrived quickly.
He first looked at the insect and shook his head.
"Your Majesty, I am not very knowledgeable and cannot recognize what kind of poisonous insect this is."
King Zhao was not surprised and asked him to read the letter.
The court doctor went to see the patient as instructed.
He picked up the envelope, looked at it again and again, sniffed it gently, and finally used some medicine powder and sprinkled it on a corner of the envelope.
He also specifically asked: "Your Majesty, can I open this letter and see if there is any problem in it?"
King Zhao nodded in agreement.
The court doctor wiped his hands and then opened the envelope with great caution.
Then his expression became much more serious.
