Chapter 326 The Imperial Concubine is Pure and Elegant (Part 75)

Ji Shilan looked up and took a close look at the furnishings in Chengqian Palace. The Cui family had a profound heritage, and the dowry given to Cui Li was priceless. There was nothing in Chengqian Palace that was not precious, but it was just that it used to be more in line with the tastes of Cui Li, a young lady from a noble family.

Now most of the ornaments have been replaced. They are less cold and restrained, and more warm. Many of them have profound meanings, including cloth tigers, Taiping drums, tiger-head shoes and other items for children. They are definitely prepared for unborn children.

Although she was the queen, the emperor and the queen mother did not trust her and even hid Cui Li's pregnancy from her.

Now that the Empress Dowager is willing to let her in, she must no longer be hiding it from her. I guess Concubine Cui's pregnancy is stable.

But when she thought of Cui Li's beautiful face, she couldn't feel any resentment, because beauty always makes people more patient.

Liang Sheng was silent for a long time, and finally remembered to ask about Queen Qiao Zhi's illness.

Qiao Zhi: "Your Majesty, the Queen has been poisoned. The poison is called Heart-piercing."

Liang Sheng: "Why did this poison appear again? Li Yuanzheng, please check the Queen's pulse and confirm whether she has been poisoned by the Liang Palace's secret medicine, the Heart-piercing Medicine."

"What? Heart-wrenching? This has been lost for decades. If Your Majesty trusts me, why not let me take your pulse?"

Ji Shilan smiled bitterly. She was already in this situation, so why shouldn't she trust Li Yuanzheng? She had never used Li Yuanzheng before, but it was just that she trusted her clansman, Doctor Ji, more.

Besides, she had been taking fertility medicine, so it was not convenient for her to see Doctor Li, who was the emperor's person.

It is now obvious that Doctor Ji may not be worthy of her trust. She has already written a letter and had it secretly sent out of the palace to investigate the background of Doctor Ji and her four senior palace maids.

Li Yuanzheng took the pulse and his beard stood up. He could hardly control his expression. He glanced at the calm Qiao Zhi and slowly calmed down.

Qiao Zhi: "Li Yuanzheng, has the Queen been struck by a heartache?"

Li Yuanzheng said nothing. He trembled as he carefully observed the queen's condition, comparing it with the medical books he had read in his mind. Finally, he nodded heavily, not daring to speak nonsense.

He had no idea how much the Queen knew about his physical condition, and he was afraid that if the secret was leaked, the Queen would not be able to bear it, as it would be too much of a blow.

"Your Majesty, I will discuss the treatment with Court Judge Qiao. Imperial Concubine Cui's medicine will be ready soon. When the time comes..."

Liang Sheng: "I will personally feed the medicine, you can go down and discuss it first."

After paying his respects, Li Yuanzheng slowly left the inner room and pulled Qiao Zhi to the side room, trembling as he walked.

Liang Sheng looked at the queen with a sad face and comforted her with a few words.

Liang Sheng: "Don't worry, I will give you an explanation. Those who plotted against you will not be able to escape. However, the people behind this are plotting something big, so they may need some planning. You need to be patient for now."

The queen shook her head. She knew that she couldn't alert the enemy. Perhaps the people behind the scenes still had some tricks that they hadn't used yet. She pretended to be relaxed and joked.

Queen Ji: "What if Concubine Cui is the one who harmed me?"

Liang Sheng: "Impossible. In fact, it was the Imperial Concubine who suggested that Qiao Zhi come to see you."

Empress Ji: "Noble Concubine? Didn't Your Majesty send Qiao Yuanpan to treat me?"

Liang Sheng: "A few days ago, Le Chang reported to me that you had been suffering from a long-standing cold. The Imperial Concubine happened to hear this and, upon asking, discovered that you had been taking medicine every day. She was very puzzled as to why your illness had not healed. She thought it was because the Imperial Physician was using the wrong medicine. Coincidentally, she valued Qiao Zhi's medical skills very much, so she asked him to see you."

Liang Sheng: "I think she has a point. You previously changed the imperial physician from Li Yuanzheng to Ji Taiyi, and I have not let Li Yuanzheng see you since then. This time, I will take the opportunity to let Qiao Zhi go. Now it seems that this imperial hospital needs a thorough investigation."

The Queen didn't know Qiao Zhi had taken her pulse; it was Cui Li who had suggested it. She closed her eyes, not knowing whether it was a psychological effect or a reaction to the poison, but she felt a genuine pain in her heart, which made her unconsciously press her hand to her heart.

Ji Shilan rubbed her eyebrows, wondering if it was the right decision for her to marry Liang Sheng back then.

Everyone thought that she was favored by the late emperor because of the Ji family.
