Chapter 1086 The mother who caused trouble
Bai Ruozhu remembered reading a sentence in her previous life, which said that there is no such thing as a perfect crime, it's just that you didn't find the flaw.
People who poison will always show flaws, but they still need to be investigated carefully.
At this time, the eunuch from the outer palace came to report, "The Queen Mother is informed that the Queen and Mrs. Dingguo are visiting."
The Queen Mother looked a little surprised, "Why did the mother of the Ai family come with the Queen?"
"When I went back to the Queen Mother, I seemed to have met her on the road." the young eunuch said.
"Invite them to go to the main hall. The Ai family will be there soon." The Queen Mother said with a hint of exhaustion in her tone.
Bai Ruozhu quietly observed everything and murmured in her heart that the Queen Mother was really not as carefree as in those novels and TV shows. She could even listen to politics behind the curtain. The Queen Mother in front of her seemed to have a lot of helplessness.
Before the Queen Mother could go to the main hall, an old woman with gray hair rushed in hurriedly. She was followed by a large number of people. Among them, wasn't the one who was luxuriously dressed and wearing a phoenix crown the Queen?
"My wife is here to see the Queen Mother." Mrs. Dingguo was about to salute when she saw the Queen Mother, but the Queen Mother hurriedly helped her up.
"There is no need to be polite, mother." Although the Queen Mother did not allow Duke Dingguo to salute, her tone and address were very polite.
It was no longer appropriate for Bai Ruozhu to avoid it at this moment, so he quietly took a look at the Queen Mother's mother, Mrs. Dingguo. Her eyebrows were somewhat similar to the Queen Mother's, but her eyes were sharp and her face was serious. At first glance, she was a somewhat harsh person. .
Thinking of the fact that the Queen Mother was in love with Yao Yuxuan back then, but married the then-Prince for the sake of the family, there must have been some conflict with her mother, so the two were so estranged.
At this time, the Queen stepped forward to salute the Queen Mother. Due to the lack of etiquette, Bai Ruozhu had no choice but to salute the Queen and Mrs. Dingguo.
"Isn't Mrs. Jiang taking care of Le Bin's body? Why did something go wrong again?" the queen asked, not questioning much, but she was obviously doubting Bai Ruozhu's medical skills.
Mrs. Dingguo frowned and shouted sternly: "Ms. Bai, you are just a woman, and you are not very old. What kind of medical skills can you have? You must have deceived the Queen Mother with your monstrous words and delayed my granddaughter's health!"
"Mother, Ruozhu has real medical skills..." The Queen Mother explained to Bai Ruozhu, but before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Mrs. Dingguo.
"Queen Mother, you are too soft-tempered and trust people too easily!" Mrs. Dingguo's voice was not soft, and she also had a hint of hatred that iron cannot be transformed into steel.
The Queen Mother's face was livid with anger. If the person who spoke was not her own mother, she would have been dragged away long ago.
Bai Ruozhu saw everything in her eyes and couldn't help complaining about Mrs. Dingguo's strength. How could her daughter be so powerful in front of her daughter-in-law? Is this still my mother?
She was so shocked by Madam Dingguo that she even forgot that she was originally targeted at her.
"Mother, be careful what you say!" The Queen Mother frowned. She lost her husband before she was forty. Although her son ascended the throne smoothly, he had to face pressure from all sides. She herself was also a soft-tempered person who didn't like fighting, and even She lacked some dignity, and her own mother still embarrassed her like this, which was really difficult for her.
"Okay, okay, now you can't listen to others' advice!" Duke Dingguo's face turned red with anger. After saying this, she started coughing, as if her lungs were about to come out. The Queen Mother had no choice but to give her a pat on the back. Suddenly, her momentum was overwhelmed again.
"Mother, Ruozhu has checked that Wen'er was poisoned. If the situation has stabilized, Ruozhu can detoxify her in the next few days." The Queen Mother explained softly.
"What? Someone dares to enter the Cining Palace and poison me?" The queen cried out in surprise, and then suddenly knelt down, "Mother, it was my concubine who failed to manage the harem well, and something like this happened. Now I can catch the poisoner. People?"
"Get up. There are a lot of people in the palace, and the Ai family will have people check it out." The Queen Mother raised her hand and motioned for the Queen to stand down.
Speaking of which, the Queen Mother did not trust the Empress either. Concubine Le's pregnancy would inevitably arouse the jealousy of many people in the harem. The Empress had only given birth to one daughter, so how could she want others to usurp the position of the Emperor's eldest son?
Duke Dingguo's wife snorted coldly, "If we didn't catch the person who poisoned her, wouldn't it mean that Bai could just say whatever she said? Whether she used the wrong medicine or was poisoned, the Queen Mother should have someone find out! "
"The imperial doctor was completely helpless. It was Ruozhu who saved Wen'er's fetus. Now that Wen'er is resting, it's better for the mother not to disturb her. The Ai family can decide this matter freely." After the Queen Mother said this, her tone became much tougher.
Duke Dingguo's lips trembled with anger, "Well, my wife, let's see how you check today and what results you can get!"
Bai Ruozhu didn't know why Mrs. Dingguo thought she was a quack as soon as she came in and thought she was the one who harmed Le Bi. At this moment, she was being stared at coldly by Mrs. Dingguo, so she could only continue to think of ways to investigate.
"Does Le Bin go out of the house on weekdays?" Bai Ruozhu asked the palace attendant next to her.
"As for Mrs. Jiang, Le Bin will go out for a short walk every morning to get some fresh air." The palace maid replied.
"Ask the other palace attendants in Cining Palace to bring their clothes for the past two days to the front hall." Bai Ruozhu thought for a while and said.
Without waiting for the Queen Mother's instructions, her close female officer immediately arranged the matter. She understood the Queen Mother's attitude. If the Queen Mother issued an order, Mrs. Dingguo would not know what to say.
Soon, everyone in the palace gathered in the front hall. Bai Ruozhu checked one by one, and finally stopped in front of a rough maid.
"She is the palace maid in charge of cleaning? Did Le Bin pass by her when she went out for a walk in the morning?" Bai Ruozhu asked.
The maid who was serving Le Bin thought for a moment and soon showed surprise, "Mrs. Jiang is right. I remember that this girl was sweeping the house this morning and last morning. Although Le Bin didn't talk to her, she never spoke to her. She passed by her, and no one who had come into contact with her before had thought of her."
The little palace maid was so frightened that her legs became weak, and she knelt on the ground with a thud, "I don't know anything, and I didn't do anything."
Bai Ruozhu looked into her eyes. The little palace lady was frightened, but she didn't hide it. She seemed to be really unaware.
She pulled out a handkerchief from the sleeve of the little palace maid, "Yes, it's the one on top."
The Queen Mother glared at her fiercely, "Tell me, where did the veil come from?"
Mrs. Dingguo snorted next to her and said, "You can smell it just by sniffing it with your nose? Could it be that he is a dog? We need to call the imperial doctor to take a look at it!"
The Queen Mother was suffocating in her heart. Seeing Bai Ruozhu nodding in agreement, she had no choice but to ask someone to go to the Imperial Hospital.
At this moment, the little palace maid who was sweeping the room had revealed the origin of the veil.
"Empress, I am really unjust. That veil was given to me by Sister Dongqing from Fuyun Garden. Sisters in the palace often give each other handkerchiefs and purses. I really don't know that the veil is poisonous." The little maid said. started crying.
