The Duke of Zhenguo was a favorite of the late emperor.
Today's young emperor has just ascended the throne, and he trusts and respects his favorite ministers such as the late emperor, so the process of Duke Zhenguo's request to see the emperor went smoothly.
In the Hall of Qinzheng, the emperor, who was only fifteen years old, was sitting behind the Dragon Table, holding a scroll in his hand. His handsome face made it difficult to tell whether he was happy or angry: "Do you have a stomachache?"
"Yes." Duke Zhen Guo knelt on the ground, "The Shen family has been in troubled times. I hope the emperor will forgive me."
The young emperor said calmly: "But are the symptoms of poisoning?"
"I don't know." Duke Zhenguo smiled bitterly, "I asked a doctor. After reading it, the doctor said it was not poisoning and the cause of the disease could not be found."
"That's really strange." The young emperor smiled faintly, his dark eyes filled with a somewhat unclear luster, "Let Dr. Sheng do what you want, he is best at difficult and complicated diseases."
"Yes, thank you for your grace, Your Majesty." The Duke of Zheng thanked him repeatedly, and then led him to the Imperial Hospital by the young eunuch.
"It seems that the Duke Zhenguo's mansion is not peaceful either." The young emperor stood on the steps of the palace with his hands behind his hands, watching the Duke Zhenguo leave, with a gloomy look in his eyes, "Yesterday the eldest daughter was humiliated, and today the second daughter has abdominal pain... What's wrong with this? A sign?"
The personal eunuch stood behind him with a bow, not daring to speak.
There are many eyes, ears and eyes in Beijing, and most of them are well-informed people.
The news that Duke Zhen Guo invited Doctor Sheng to his home to diagnose his second daughter's pulse soon spread among the princesses and the noble ladies of the aristocratic family. At that time, Princess Jiahe was inviting several noble ladies to enjoy the flowers in the garden, and was actively discussing the affairs of the Shen family. superior.
"Yesterday, the eldest daughter was insulted and her innocence was ruined. Today, the second daughter has severe abdominal pain for no reason? What on earth is the Zhenguo Government doing?"
"Hush! You can't say this again if you ruin your innocence. Anyone who mentions it again under the orders of the Regent will suffer disaster."
A woman in luxurious clothes leaned on the railing and smiled coldly: "If innocence is gone, it is gone. If everyone's mouths are sealed, the facts will no longer be facts? It's really ridiculous."
"Princess, be careful what you say!"
"What are you afraid of? At the wedding ceremony in three days, I will definitely ask Shen Ning how she still has the face to survive in this world. I want her to end her life with a white silk ribbon as soon as possible."
"I heard that Young Master Qin's arm was broken by her. Is it possible that... Shen Yan's abdominal pain was also caused by her?"
"Sisters turn against each other?"
"Who knows, maybe the Zhenguo Palace planned to let the second daughter marry as a substitute. Shen Ning was worried that her marriage would be robbed, so she poisoned Shen Yan in a rage..."
It was getting late, and the setting sun passed through the window.
Two hours of restful sleep made Shen Ning's sleepiness dissipate, and the shadows under his eyes faded a lot. After washing, his face looked even more bright and stunning.
The gossip outside had already turned upside down, but she had no desire to care at all and called Lanzhi and Lanhua in.
"I'm hungry, you go to the kitchen and get some food."
"Yes." Lanzhi turned around and left.
Lan Hua stayed in the room and made tea for Shen Ning: "Physician Sheng from the Tai Hospital just came and took Miss Shen Er's pulse carefully, but the cause of the disease has not been found yet."
Shen Ning didn't say anything, but sat in front of the window and drank tea quietly.
Of course, the imperial doctor could not find out the cause of the disease, because Shen Yan was not sick at all and was not poisoned.
The meal that Shen Yan sent her at noon only contained Mongolian sweat medicine and a little love medicine, which can make people fall into a temporary coma, causing them to become unconscious and do something that is disgraceful to their reputation.
As for why she did this, there must be an ulterior conspiracy.
Shen Yan didn't want to eat because she was worried that she would fall asleep after eating, or even lose her temper, which would lead to the failure of the plan.
However, what she didn't know was that the sweat medicine and love medicine had no effect on Shen Ning. At most, they only made her sleep deeper and more soundly.
As for Shen Yan's abdominal pain...
Shen Ning turned to look out the window, a strange luster flashed across her eyes, and the arc of the corners of her lips revealed a coldness.
"Shen Ning, what is your heart made of? Yan'er screams repeatedly, but you are here asking for food and drink. Are you still a human being?" Shen Shi'an barged in and was so anxious that he scolded Shen Ning. , probably for a long time, he was extremely anxious, "Yan'er, what's wrong with you, are you so cruel to her?"
Shen Ning looked back and looked at him coldly: "Do you need me to take her to Dali Temple with her so that the Dali Temple Minister can judge this case?"
"You -" Shen Shi'an hesitated, then gritted his teeth, "If you didn't poison her, why did she suddenly have abdominal cramps?"
Shen Ning said coldly: "If she hadn't bribed the bandits yesterday, how could I have been insulted?"
"What did you say?" Shen Shi'an looked at her in shock, "Shen Ning, what are you talking about? What does this matter have to do with Yan'er? You..."
"So what does her abdominal pain have to do with me?" Shen Ning's eyes were as cold as blades, "Didn't you mess around with me first?"
Shen Shi'an's face froze, and he was too blocked to say a word.
"go out."
Shen Shi'an clenched his hands tightly, clearly believing that this matter had something to do with Shen Ning, but he was suffering from the lack of evidence.
Even the imperial doctor couldn't diagnose the cause of the disease, and Yan'er wasn't poisoned. How could he blame Shen Ning?
Whether it is poisoning or other reasons, the reason must be found before a conviction can be made.
Shen Shi'an had a sullen face and said in a low voice: "Yan'er is your sister after all..."
"If you are willing to kneel in the yard outside for two days, Shen Yan's abdominal pain may be cured by the day I get married." Shen Ning's tone was calm, as if giving him a chance to choose, "You You can try it.”
"So you did something wrong?" Shen Shi'an looked at Shen Ning angrily as if he had finally caught the handle, "Why are you so vicious? Shen Ning, you are the eldest daughter of the Shen family, and Yan'er is your sister. Is this how you treat your relatives?"
Shen Ning's eyes were cold and hard, staring at him for a moment, as if there were layers of frost waves surging in his eyes, and there was a faint bloodthirsty air.
Shen Shi'an felt chilled in his heart when she saw her: "I..."
"Get out."
Shen Shi'an clenched his hands tightly, turned around and walked away.
As expected, Doctor Sheng was also at his wits' end after he arrived.
He checked Shen Yan over and over three times. He tried all the tests, but he couldn't tell what was wrong with Shen Yan at all.
There was even a sense in her words that Shen Yan was pretending to be ill.
After hearing this, Duke Zhen looked at Shen Yan with a bit of suspicion.
"Father, I...I didn't..." Shen Yan was trembling with pain, and the sharp pain in her heart became worse than the last wave, torturing her to the point of death. "I hurt, my daughter really hurts...ah!"
Duke Zhen frowned and saw that her face was pale and her forehead was dripping with cold sweat. It really didn't look like she was faking it, so he had no choice but to suppress his anxiety and send Imperial Doctor Sheng out in person.
Everyone was helpless and could only watch Shen Yan in pain.
Shen Ning will get married in three days, and the Zhenguo Palace is busy preparing her dowry, so there is no time to take care of Shen Yan.
Shen Shi'an had no choice but to come to Haitang Courtyard again in the evening. Looking at Shen Ning sitting in front of the window reading a book, she gritted her teeth and said, "How do you want her to not be in pain?"
Shen Ning said nothing, as if she couldn't hear him.
"You have lost your innocence and Qin Yanshu is still willing to have you. It is your luck. I don't think my father and mother have done anything wrong, but my attitude is indeed not very good. I will admit my mistake to you." Shen Shi'an said coldly, "If I If you are willing to kneel down for two days, will you be able to calm down?"
Shen Ning lowered her eyes and read a book without saying a word, her expression indifferent and calm.
"I hope everything will end within these two days." Shen Shi'an said to himself, "If you are still dissatisfied, you can have someone whip me. I will never resist, but after two days all grievances will be wiped out. , From now on, you are still the daughter of the Shen family. You are not allowed to ruin the reputation of the Zhenguo Palace outside, and you are not allowed to do anything that is harmful to the interests of the Zhenguo Palace. Can you agree? "
Shen Ning turned over the pages of the book and ignored his self-righteous request.
"Shen Ning——"
"Master Shen, please don't be rude to the princess." Lanzhi came over and warned sternly, "If you do this again, I will report the truth to the regent."
Shen Shi'an said coldly: "Why would it hinder the regent if I talk to my sister?"
Lanzhi reminded her in a neither humble nor arrogant tone: "Miss Shen is now the regent. Her dignity comes first, and her brothers and sisters follow behind."
"You -" Shen Shi'an gritted his teeth, turned around and walked out, lifted his robe and knelt down in the yard, "Shen Ning, I am willing to be punished, and I hope you will keep your promise!"
