Wishful Things

Emperor Qingming held the teacup and held it close to his lips.

However, with such a little force, the knuckles of the fingers suddenly felt extremely painful, which seemed to be exactly the same as the pain coming from the knee, making his fingers tremble uncontrollably——

"Snapped!"

The flower-and-bird teacup fell from his hands and shattered under his feet, the tea soup splashed out.

"..." The voice made Concubine Rong tremble violently, her pupils shrank instantly, and the tense strings in her head burst, and she almost instinctively squatted down to clean up the broken porcelain tea.

"Ah, Your Majesty!" Li Ji on the side hurried forward and hurriedly wiped the tea on Emperor Qingming's body.

Emperor Qingming's eyes fell on Concubine Rong.

"It's just a cup of tea, why is Aifei so nervous?"

Concubine Rong paused as she put away the broken porcelain, and hurriedly said: "...the tea delivered by my concubine must be too hot, it's all due to my concubine's carelessness!"

"Really." Emperor Qingming's eyes flickered: "If that's the case, shouldn't Aifei first check to see if I've been burned?"

"Yes...it's strange that the minister and concubine got confused in a moment of anxiety!" Concubine Rong raised her head, trying her best to look calm and concerned, but she didn't know that her face was already as white as snow: "Your Majesty...are you burning?"

Emperor Qingming looked at her quietly for a moment.

Concubine Rong was stiff all over, but she didn't dare to avoid this gaze, for fear of showing a guilty conscience.

At this moment, she has realized that her behavior is too abnormal——

But this is regicide...

The heinous crime with the most serious consequences that can exist in the whole world!

She just came from an ordinary boudoir daughter's family, and she has never hurt anyone's life with her own hands, but this time she just didn't do it, and she picked the biggest one when she did it!

Even if you have made up your mind, it is the courage that can only be obtained by thinking about the benefits after the event is completed. If you talk about fear, how can you not be afraid or panic in your heart?

The sound of the teacup falling just now was like a thunderous explosion in her mind. Her first thought was to cover up the evidence, and she didn't even have time to think that this move might be self-defeating...

At this moment, she could even hear her own heartbeat clearly, one sound getting heavier and heavier, as if it could jump out of her chest in the next moment.

But at this time, she saw the emperor in sight suddenly showing a gentle smile.

"..." Seeing this, Concubine Rong tugged at her stiff cheeks.

"Help the imperial concubine up quickly." Emperor Qingming instructed Gong'e: "The broken porcelain is sharp, if you hurt the imperial concubine's hand, what should I do?"

The tone was as concerned as ever.

Gong'e responded "Yes", and bent over to help Concubine Rong up.

"Concubine Ai's complexion looks a little bad, please sit down."

"Thank you, Your Majesty..." Concubine Rong felt slightly relieved, and sat down on the chair beside Fu, and said softly: "The concubine was just too worried about Your Majesty's dragon body, so she lost her composure for a while..."

"I understand." Emperor Qingming ordered Gong'e again: "Pour a cup of tea for the noble concubine quickly, so that the noble concubine can calm down."

Concubine Rong Guifei, who had just felt the slightest relaxation in her heart, suddenly fell into an ice cave.

Gong'e followed her advice and lifted the teapot.

The red tea soup is slowly poured into the teacup, and the sound is full of leisurely Zen.

"Ma'am."

Seeing the tea that Gong'e held in front of her eyes, Concubine Rong took it calmly.

The cup wall was warm, which made her fingers cold.

Her whole body was covered in cold sweat, the pores of her bristling skin fluttered open, and her mind was completely blank.

"Why doesn't Aifei drink?"

The emperor's overly calm voice reached her ears, but it made her tremble.

"Your Majesty..." She met those eyes and opened her mouth dryly, but she didn't know what to say, and she could find any excuse to cover it up.

She has clearly noticed that the emperor is suspicious!

At this moment, the hall was surprisingly silent.

Li Ji lowered his eyes and looked at the mess on the ground that hadn't been cleaned up yet, and he was not in a hurry to get the servant Gong'e to clean it up.

The silent atmosphere was brewing, like the tension of a tall building about to fall.

Just when Concubine Rong's hand holding the teacup began to tremble, almost unable to sustain herself in this breathless atmosphere, an inner eunuch suddenly walked in.

"Report to Your Majesty, Imperial Physician Zheng has arrived."

"Your Majesty's body is very important..." Concubine Rong said, "Quickly invite Imperial Physician Zheng to come in and see His Majesty!"

However, the inner eunuch faintly sensed the strange atmosphere, and stood still for a moment.

Until Emperor Qingming said: "Xuan."

The inner supervisor responded and withdrew.

Imperial Physician Zheng walked in quickly, saluted, and then asked: "I wonder what's wrong with Your Majesty?"

Just looking at his face, it's really not good.

However, the emperor said: "I'm not in a hurry, it's better for Dr. Zheng to test the cup of tea in the hands of the noble concubine first, and take a closer look to see if there is anything wrong—"

Tea……

Doctor Zheng looked over, feeling a little puzzled—what's wrong with the tea in the Taimiao?

And looking at Concubine Rong's expression again, she felt a little strange, so she stepped forward.

Seeing that Concubine Rong didn't hand it over, she respectfully stretched out her hand: "I also ask the empress to give this tea to the minister for inspection."

Concubine Rong's forehead had already started to drip silently with cold sweat, and she realized that the gaze had been fixed on her, so she slowly handed the teacup into the hands of Imperial Physician Zheng.

Doctor Zheng observed the color of the tea, then sniffed it carefully, his eyes changed slightly.

As a fairly motivated imperial doctor, ever since Sun Taifei wanted to poison the queen mother in the Lingshan Palace, he would often consult with Luo imperial doctor, who was firmly in the position of veterinarian, about toxicology, and spent a lot of time studying it.

After coming and going, the drug testing materials in the medicine box became more and more complete.

After some inspection, Imperial Physician Zheng said solemnly: "Your Majesty, this tea contains a highly poisonous... This poison is called Fanqianshuang. Enough weight, it can take a person's life within two hours!" - If the emperor is like this, maybe one hour is enough!

Concubine Rong's eyes trembled, and the last trace of luck in her heart was also broken.

The eunuchs and maids in the palace were all shocked.

Especially Gong'e, who was beside Concubine Rong, was even more terrified. This pot of tea... was brewed by her mother herself!

"It's highly poisonous." Emperor Qingming nodded clearly, and looked at Concubine Rong.

"I don't know if the imperial concubine has already drunk this tea?!" Imperial Physician Zheng came to his senses and asked hastily.

Li Ji glanced at him.

Hey, why don't you understand the situation?

"The noble concubine didn't touch it." Emperor Qingming smiled and said, "Since it is a good thing specially prepared for me, how can the noble concubine touch it?"

Concubine Rong was completely panicked, she immediately left the red sandalwood lamp hanging chair, and knelt down in front of Emperor Qingming: "Your Majesty, my concubine... I don't know that this tea is poisonous!"

Emperor Qingming acted as if he hadn't heard of it, a chill appeared on his face, he leaned slightly closer to her, and asked word by word: "Why did the imperial concubine want my life? Is there anything I can't do to you?"
