Evil Doctor Princess - Chapter 198
Chapter 198 The History of Harem Battles
“What do you mean?” Shui Fei Yu asked in shock.
Bai Junzhuo calmly pointed at the piece of paper with Qianqianyu and said, “Literally.”
Shui Fei Yu raised the paper and the five words on it were: “Shen Wu Jie is not dead”. She asked anxiously, “Why did you say he wasn’t dead? Where on earth is he?”
“You want to know?” Bai Junzhuo picked up the stool and signaled for her to sit down, “Tell me a few things first, and then I’ll tell you where Shen Wujie is.”
Shui Fei Yu sneered, “How do I know if what you said is true or false?”
“I did. Believe it or not, it’s up to you.” Bai Junzhuo didn’t care. He ate a piece of cake and thought it was not bad. He picked it up and asked Shui Lingyu, “Do you want to try it too?”
“You!” Shui Fei Yu was a little angry at her attitude, but she always felt that Shen Wu Jie wasn’t dead. And what Bai Junzhuo said today was like a spring breeze, and the hope that buried her deep in her heart was blown away. She gritted her teeth, sat down, and said to Bai Junzhuo, “What is it? Ask.”
Bai Junzhuo swallowed the food in his mouth and asked, “I remembered what you said about Fu Yunyue that day. You were only a few years old when those things happened in the Fu Clan, weren’t you? How did you know?”
“I listened to my mother.”
“As expected.” Bai Junzhuo nodded and asked, “Does your mother often tell you about other people’s family background?”
Shui Fei Yu was a little angry and asked, “What does it have to do with you? Just ask what you want to ask.”
“Alright, then I’ll ask directly.” Bai Junzhuo’s expression turned serious as he asked, “Do you know when my Ninth Prince’s mother, Concubine Chu, died?”
Shui Fei Yu thought for a moment and replied, “I heard from my mother that Imperial Concubine Chu had just given birth to the Ninth Prince and had contracted a serious illness. She passed away in less than half a year.” I still remember when my mother told me this, she told me that the Ninth Prince was probably as weak and sickly as her mother and told me not to interact with him too much. That’s why my mother betrothed me to Shen Wujie instead of the Ninth Prince. ”
Bai Junzhuo secretly complained. Fortunately, the Empress Dowager had been drugging her Master Yin. Otherwise, if Shui Lingyu took a fancy to her, where would she cry?
“So you didn’t die from dystocia?” Bai Junzhuo asked.
“Of course not,” Shui Lingyu said, “but I heard that another imperial concubine died in the palace due to difficulty in giving birth. It was that imperial concubine’s mother, Imperial Concubine Liu. Imperial Concubine Liu is the pitiful one. After giving birth to the second prince, the second prince died because of a loss in the fetus.”
“It’s the Second Prince?” Bai Junzhuo was puzzled, “Why did I hear others say that Imperial Concubine Liu gave birth to the First Prince?”
“What does that person know!” “My mother has known all the people in the palaces since she was in Xuchang. The concubines in the palace know her, so what she knows is the most accurate information. Back then, Imperial Concubine Liu and the Empress Dowager gave birth to a prince at the same time. Imperial Concubine Liu’s child was half an hour earlier, so she is the second prince.”
“That’s why.” Bai Junzhuo nodded his head and thought to himself, what was the purpose of the emperor’s granny calling the second prince the eldest prince? Could it be that she remembered wrongly?
“What else do you want to know?” Shui Lingyu asked impatiently.
Bai Junzhuo moved closer to her and pointed at Nurse Huang, who had entered the courtyard to pick up some things. He whispered, “Do you recognize this person?”
Shui Fei Yu looked at Nurse Huang and said, “How could I know such an aunt?”
“I don’t think you know either.” As Bai Junzhuo spoke, he smiled and said, “I only have these small questions to ask you. I didn’t think of anything else. I’ll come find you another day.”
“Another day?” Shui Yingyu stood up and said anxiously, “Tell me, is Shen Wujie really dead?”
“Not dead.” Bai Junzhuo looked at her calmly. “Didn’t I say I wasn’t dead?”
“Where is he? I want to see him!”
“Sure,” Bai Junzhuo nodded. “Come back to me tomorrow, and you’ll see Shen Wujie.”
“Really?” Shui Lingyu was filled with joy, but he was somewhat skeptical.
“Really.” Bai Junzhuo also leaned on his waist and gently patted her shoulder. “But remember, Shen Wujie is a dead man in everyone’s eyes. If someone who shouldn’t know finds out that he’s still alive, I’m afraid …” Bai Junzhuo said.
“There’s no need for you to remind me. I know.” Shui Lingyu coldly refuted her, “Since that’s the case, I’ll come back tomorrow.”
With that, she turned around and left.
After she left, Xingzi came over to Bai Junzhuo and said, “This Princess Shui is too scary. She just talked a lot, but this servant didn’t even have the chance to interrupt!”
Bai Junzhuo shook his head and chuckled, “I haven’t seen Shui Lingyu for so many days, but he is still very powerful. If you have time, you must personally pay a visit to Chen Cang’s mansion.”
By the time Ju An returned, the sky was already completely dark. When Bai Jun Zhuo saw Ju An’s worried expression, he knew that it was as he had expected. He asked her, “How is it? Did you get the item?”
Ju An forced a smile and said, “I got half of it. The files of the Liquid Court Bureau were deliberately destroyed by some people, and the records of the Taiyuan Hospital were destroyed in the fire many years ago. However, when Consort Shu heard that the princess wanted these things, she went to find someone to sort them out for a long time and handed the remaining records to this servant, letting this servant bring them to the princess.”
Bai Junzhuo took the hard-earned items and raised his head to Ju An, “Thank you very much. Thank you for your hard work.”
Actually, she was only looking for this file to see if Nurse Huang had served the Empress Dowager before, and if she was someone from the Empress Dowager. She flipped through it casually. Originally, she didn’t have much hope, but after flipping through a few pages, she was attracted by the records about Duke Bai.
It turned out that the news he heard in the Chamber of Commerce that day was all true. Bai Gonglu was really from the Taiyuan Hospital, and he was also the chief imperial physician who served Imperial Concubine Liu and the Empress Dowager back then.
Bai Junzhuo frowned slightly. She suddenly had a bad premonition that what happened back then must have involved a lot of things. Moreover, the fire that had burned all the imperial physicians to death seemed to have been deliberately done. Since that was the case, why did Bai Gonglu escape? More than twenty years later, did Duke Bai’s death have anything to do with this matter?
She closed the personnel records and flipped through the other half of the records regarding Imperial Concubine Gong’s medication. The records of Imperial Concubine Liu and Empress Dowager seemed to have been purposely erased, and they couldn’t find any clues at all. However, one could see the records of Imperial Concubine Chu, Yin Xun’s mother. Imperial Concubine Chu’s body had been fine until she was pregnant, and she gradually became weak. The imperial physician who served her nourished her while helping her settle the fetus.
It’s just this tonic recipe …
Bai Junzhuo was watching attentively when Yin Xun walked in from outside. Ju An and Xingzi were about to bow when Yin Xun waved his hand and told them to leave first.
After the two of them left, Yin Xun sat beside Bai Junzhuo and asked curiously, “What are you looking at?”
Bai Junzhuo was dazed when he heard his voice. He raised his head to look at him and did not reply.
Yin Xun did not continue to ask. Noticing that the incense burner in the middle of the room was gone, he asked, “Where is the incense Mother gave me?”
“Throw it away.” Bai Jun replied.
“Why throw it away?”
Bai Jun hesitated for a moment before he said, “Zisu, the cold poison in your body is most likely caused by this incense.”
Yin Xun wasn’t surprised at all. He smiled and said, “Is that so?”
When Bai Jun saw his expression, he asked in surprise, “Aren’t you surprised or sad? It’s very likely that the Empress Dowager wants to harm you!”
“I already knew.” Yin Xun said calmly to her, “From childhood until now, she has always been on guard against me. Her kindness and kindness towards me are just for outsiders to see.”
“So you already knew this,” Bai Junzhuo’s heart ached. He stroked Yin Xun’s cheek and said, “I always thought that you didn’t know. I thought that you and the Empress Dowager really had a deep relationship.”
“Mother and son love each other deeply?” Yin Xun held her hand and smiled faintly, “There are still many truths that you don’t know. If you knew, you wouldn’t have said that.”
Bai Junzhuo’s heart congealed. Could this “many truths that he didn’t know” be referring to his mother and imperial concubine?
Bai Junzhuo thought about it carefully and asked, “What other truth is there?”
Yin Xun shook his head slightly, “You don’t need to know about these things. Don’t worry about them anymore. Didn’t I say that? Right now, all you need to do is settle down properly.”
Bai Junzhuo leaned forward and sat up straight. “Zisu, since I’ve already asked, you can tell me. Otherwise, I won’t be able to be at ease.”
He did not speak, as if he was still unwilling to answer.
Bai Junzhuo looked at him for a while and no longer asked. He picked up the file in his hand and showed it to him, “Your mother, Imperial Concubine Chu, was in good health before conceiving you. Basically, she didn’t take any medicine from the Grand Hospital.” After conceiving you, your body isn’t that bad. At first, you only felt a slight pain in your lower abdomen. This is also very normal. You just need to relax your emotions properly and adapt slowly. However, the diagnosis of the imperial physician is that the fetal image is unstable. After that, he began to give Imperial Concubine Chu nourishing medicines. There was no problem with the prescription, but there were a few medicines that were too large. “It’s a third poison. Imperial Concubine Chu’s body was dragged down by this overdose of medicine. After giving birth to you, she bled endlessly. She passed away in less than half a month.”
Yin Xun took the file and frowned silently.
“When did Imperial Concubine Chu enter the palace?” Bai Junzhuo suddenly asked without thinking.
Yin Xun replied, “My mother entered the palace late. She entered the palace when my royal brother was five years old.”
“That’s it,” Bai Junzhuo nodded. “When Imperial Concubine Chu was pregnant with you, Imperial Concubine Chu was already burned down by the fire five years ago. The damn imperial physicians were all burned to death in that fire, and then there were a new batch of imperial physicians. I guess this imperial physician who gave Imperial Concubine Chu too much medicinal ingredignity should be from the Empress Dowager, right?”
Yin Xun quietly listened to him and shook his head for a long time. “The truth of the past wasn’t like that.”
“Oh?” Bai Junzhuo was slightly surprised and asked, “What’s that like?”
