The Salted Fish Concubine of the Qing Dynasty

Eunuch Quan almost ran his legs off, and led the court doctor straight to the Lanyuan. Doctor Chen was sweating profusely, carrying the medicine box. Before he could catch his breath, a young palace maid opened the curtain and invited him in.

A palace maid was kneeling on the ground and talking, "The princess said she had no appetite at noon, so she only had thin noodles with wild duck soup, and ate two green bean cakes in the afternoon, paired with the Anji white tea you gave me the other day..."

Doctor Chen bent his waist even lower. This new favorite, Princess Geng, was indeed extraordinary. The fourth prince, who always valued rules, could not wait to send someone to report, and now he personally interrogated such a small matter. I think he really took it to heart.

Seeing the doctor coming, the Fourth Prince waved his hand, and Su Peisheng carried the grapes to the side room. Yu Jinzhong, who was standing by, naturally could not escape either. Even Xiao Xizi, who was taking care of the cats and dogs, was taken to another room by Eunuch Quan. It seemed that they were going to be interrogated separately.

Doctor Chen secretly groaned in his heart. He was not afraid of seeing a doctor, but if he was involved in the private affairs of the mansion, even more lives would not be enough. Unfortunately, he had a hard-working mother and a crying child to feed. If he died, he didn't know if his wife could handle so many things alone.

Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes observation, auscultation, questioning and palpation. Doctor Chen did not feel the pulse, but first looked at the complexion of the person on the bed. She was whiter than snow, and her lips were as bright as a crabapple. Even with her eyes closed, she was still radiant, which made people feel distracted.

Doctor Chen only took a glance, then looked away and dared not look again. He lowered his head and stared at the white wrist covered by the white handkerchief, feeling the pulse from his fingertips.

After a while, Doctor Chen withdrew his hand and said, "Your pulse is disordered, your lips are bright red, your inhalation is long and your exhalation is short, which is a sign of poisoning. Fortunately, you are born with a strong physique, and the poisoning is not serious. If you can vomit out the contents of your stomach, I am afraid you will get better in a moment."

The Fourth Prince showed no emotion on his face, and only asked, "Can you tell what kind of poison this is? And when did she get poisoned?"

Doctor Chen carefully distinguished the snacks presented by the servants, and felt the pulse again, and then said carefully, "The poisoning time is not long, it should be the flower poison of the bamboo peach, as these snacks have not been found yet, so I don't know how the noble lady accidentally ate this poison."

The poisoning time is not long, the flower poison...

Could it be the flower that she bit in her mouth when she was painting? The Fourth Prince ordered people to take out the things kept in the study.

Doctor Chen took a look and said, "It is this flower."

Of course, someone went to find the origin of this flower. Geng Qingning on the couch also woke up slowly at this time. She just swallowed a little juice accidentally. With the blessing of +1 physical strength, she had recovered some consciousness when she moved just now. If she didn't wake up now, she would be induced to vomit by acupuncture.

She wanted to avoid being spoiled, but she didn't think of hating the Fourth Prince.

"What's wrong with me?" Geng Qingning asked knowingly, and wanted to sit up weakly, but the Fourth Prince held her hand.
