Rebirth of the Queen in the Harem

Chapter 274 The Secret of Mercury

"See the Queen, may the Queen be blessed and safe."

Seeing Yi Xiu coming over, Feng Ruozhao hurriedly said hello. Her voice was sweet and sweet, like the sound of nature, making people want to hear more.

"Get up, I'm passing by. I haven't come to see you for a long time, and I also want to see how my fifth brother is doing at your place."

Although the relationship between Yi Xiu and Feng Ruozhao was already as close as that of sisters, they still had to show some superficial skills to outsiders. He raised his hand and asked Feng Ruozhao to get up.

The two walked in and sat down indoors. Yi Xiu arranged for Wen Shichu to be invited over.

"Jianqiu, please invite Doctor Wen over."

"Yes."

Feng Ruozhao on the side looked at Yi Xiu's movements and was full of doubts, but he did not ask any questions. He just stayed with Yi Xiu quietly. The two of them sat quietly without saying a word.

"I am here to see you, the empress, and to pay my respects to my concubine."

Wen Shichu came very quickly, and he had in mind the purpose of Yi Xiu calling him here this time.

"Get up."

After Wen Shichu got up, Yi Xiu looked at him and Jian Qiu understood and took all the irrelevant people out of the palace.

"Mr. Wen, it's inconvenient for me to stay in Jingren Palace, so I can only say it here."

Yi Xiu made the words clear and clear. Wen Shichu also understood and told everything he found out.

"Weichen read through ancient books and found out that if mercury is used together with shellfish, toxins will be produced over a long period of time and the fetus will be deformed, which is what people call freaks.

Wei Chen also went to the imperial kitchen to seek confirmation. He said that since Mr. Qi became pregnant, he heard from somewhere that eating more shellfish can ensure the birth of a boy, so he eats it almost every day. Such a development must be strange. fetal. "

As soon as Wen Shichu said this, Yi Xiu didn't have much reaction, but Feng Ruozhao on the side was shocked. She knew that something must have happened to Yi Xiu, but she didn't expect that the matter was so big. After hearing Wen Shichu's words, she , the blood on his face faded, and he was as pale as a piece of white paper.

Her lips trembled violently, and she wanted to say something, but she couldn't. She looked straight at Wen Shichu, as if she wanted to see through him, trying to find the slightest flaw on his face to prove that none of this was true.

However, Wen Shichu's face was only calm, as if he was saying something ordinary. His eyes were firm and calm, without the slightest flinch or dodge, so Feng Ruozhao could not find any comfort or hope in his eyes.

Yixiu sat there quietly, saying nothing. Her face was still pale, but she looked calmer than Feng Ruozhao's panic. Her eyes were fixed on Wen Shichu, as if waiting for him to continue speaking.

Wen Shichu took a deep breath, and then said slowly: "Empress, everything I said is true. If there is even half a lie, I am willing to be punished."

"Wei Chen retire."

After hearing what he wanted to hear, Yi Xiu waved his hand and asked Wen Shichu to leave. After all, if he stayed too long, he would probably arouse suspicion. If Yinzhen discovered it, even Feng Ruozhao would be suspected.

"Mother.........................this......................this............ .What on earth is going on!!”

As soon as Wen Shichu left, Feng Ruozhao couldn't help but ask Yi Xiu what the situation was.

"Previously, Concubine Duan saw someone in the palace of the noble Fucha sneaking away something at night, and Concubine Duan picked it up. I always felt that the child of noble Qi had been murdered, and again In addition to Concubine Duan's words, I will ask Imperial Physician Wen to find out what is going on."

"So.........that is to say...Qi Guiren's child is... .....It was the noble Fucha who harmed him??”

Yi Xiu nodded, Feng Ruozhao's eyes widened and he looked at Fucha Peiyun in disbelief. She simply couldn't believe that Fucha Peiyun had such courage and dared to murder the emperor's heir.

The emperor's heirs are the future and hope of the royal family, and the foundation and pillars of the country. Their safety and health are related to the rise, fall, honor and disgrace of the entire dynasty. Any murder or harm to the emperor's heirs is a betrayal and blasphemy against the royal family. It is a crime and treason against the country.

"Then...do you need to tell the emperor about this matter now?"

"I am still hesitating. After all, we have no evidence. What's more, the emperor has not said that he wants to investigate this matter. When the time comes, he will do bad things with good intentions."

Yi Xiu had thought about this problem from the beginning, but she quickly figured it out. At this time, Yinzhen was suspicious of her, and Yinzhen didn't say that he wanted to investigate the matter. If she told Yinzhen the truth about the matter, Zhen was afraid that his doubts about him would only become bigger. Yi Xiu thought, if it was still the case, it would be better not to tell Yinzhen.

"Then what are you going to do?"

Feng Ruozhao nodded, agreeing with Yi Xiu's approach. After all, Yi Xiu also said just now that there is an unclean person in Yi Xiu's Jingren Palace. I'm afraid that Yi Xiu arranged for that person to go in. In this case, don't say anything. That's fine.

Fucha Peiyun wanted to take action against the child, so Yixiu not only had to strengthen the palace's security measures to ensure the child's safety. At the same time, she must also find a way to make Fucha Peiyun lose her status and influence in the harem, so that she cannot have another chance to harm the child.

"Otherwise, I'm afraid it's time for all the children in this harem to turn into freaks for no reason."

Yi Xiu's tone was full of helplessness and grief. She knew that she couldn't let this happen, otherwise Yinzhen would think that she was not suitable to be the queen.
