Dressed as the villain's stepmother

Southern Xinjiang Gu magic.

When Jiang Lianzhu heard this, she thought of someone—Liu Qingqing.

In addition to the ordinary medical skills that doctors know, Liu Qingqing and her father Liu Zi also know some strange "crafts".

For example, controlling a beast.

The reason why Liu Zi and Liu Qingqing are so well-informed has a lot to do with their ability to control beasts.

Jiang Lianzhu once heard Liu Qingqing mention that everyone in their clan has their own unique skills. The Liu family is best at controlling beasts, and among their clan members, there is a group of compatriots with pure blood. They settled in Southern Xinjiang, and the people of that bloodline were best at the art of Gu.

"Mr. Li, is the medical sage Sun Qi you call still studying voodoo in southern Xinjiang?"

Jiang Lianzhu asked about the exit.

"Mrs. Liao, actually, I don't know where Master has gone now. What I just told you is also the news I got five years ago. What Master likes most is to travel around the world and learn all kinds of wonders in the world. medical skills."

Doctor Li sighed with emotion.

"When my master heard that I stayed in the capital and worked as a physician for the royal family, he still disapproved of my ambition."

Sun Qi, the medical sage who likes to travel around the world, can't figure out why someone would be willing to stay in a palace with restricted movement.

"Now that I think about it, maybe Master's ideal is right."

He was in this palace, treating and consulting the members of the royal family. Many years passed in a flash, and his progress in medical skills was almost negligible.

"Everyone has his own ambitions. Traveling around and staying in the palace are just choices. Doctor Li, you don't have to be so harsh on yourself. The hospital now respects you. This also proves your ability, Doctor Li."

Jiang Lianzhu comforted Dr. Li.

With the help of others, Dr. Li gradually recovered from the pain.

"Mr. Li, there is something I don't understand. Is His Highness the Crown Prince's pulse as dismal as that of anyone with the same symptoms as him?"

Jiang Lianzhu thought of Concubine Xi and asked one more question.

She is not very good at diagnosing pulses with traditional Chinese medicine, but now Dr. Li is the dean of the Taiyuan Hospital, and Jiang Lianzhu hopes to get answers from Dr. Li.

"His Royal Highness has a pulse condition that ordinary patients do not have. Madam Liao, why do you ask this?"

The prince's pulse condition is not universal.

Jiang Lianzhu understood clearly.

Previously, Liao Xiaoping discovered that someone had poisoned the East Palace. If the prince was seriously ill due to other external factors besides his innate frailty, does that mean the same thing was happening around Concubine Xi?

At this moment, Jiang Lianzhu thought of many things.

"Mrs. Liao?"

Doctor Li looked at Jiang Lianzhu and asked.

"I'm not very proficient in medicine, so I specifically want to ask Dr. Li for advice."

"Mrs. Liao, you are humble. Your medical skills are obvious to all in Kyoto. If not for Mrs. Liao's intervention, His Royal Highness would not be able to say goodbye to His Majesty soberly."

"If anything, Doctor Li is very complimentary."

There was no proof of everything, so Jiang Lianzhu naturally couldn't speak frankly to Dr. Li, so she randomly found an excuse to excuse her.

She is not a member of the palace, so she will leave the palace at sunset.

Before that, Jiang Lianzhu went to the East Palace and wanted to take Liao Xiaoping out of the palace together.

Now, His Royal Highness the Prince has passed away, and Liao Xiaoping's status as the Prince's companion has also existed in name only. Jiang Lianzhu was worried that Dabao was overly worried in the palace, but Dabao insisted on staying.

"Mother, I want to stay in the East Palace to accompany His Highness and do what I can for His Highness. I ask my mother to help you."

Do your best for your friends.

Liao Xiaoping didn't want to have any regrets about this matter.

"Okay, a good boy taught by Mrs. Liao."

His Majesty was very pleased to hear what the mother and son said. He stepped forward and touched Liao Xiaoping's shoulders, with admiration in his eyes.

"Liao Xiaoping is loyal to the prince, how can I not be loyal to him?"

"The prince is young, has never married, and has no heirs. Liao Xiaoping, are you willing to kneel in front of the prince's coffin for him?"

The emperor granted Liao Xiaoping the grace of kneeling down, which was a favor only given to the prince's blood heirs.

As the son of a minister, Liao Xiaoping has this honor, which is naturally due to his majesty's love and affection.

"Your Majesty, Xiao Ping is willing to give the Crown Prince a ride!"

Liao Xiaoping saluted solemnly.

Having said this, Jiang Lianzhu, a mother, naturally had no reason to stop him. Although she was worried about Dabao's safety, His Majesty valued Dabao so much that no one in the palace would attack him rashly.

Moreover, Jiang Lianzhu just couldn't stay in the palace. Tomorrow, she would still have to re-enter the palace as a third-grade imperial concubine.

So Jiang Lianzhu stopped worrying and returned to Lihua Garden alone.

The next day.

The news of the prince's death spread throughout the capital, and all the ministers in the court came to pay homage to the prince's coffin according to their rank.

As a third-grade imperial concubine, Jiang Lianzhu paid homage to the prince's coffin together with the imperial concubines from other families in the capital.

Jiang Lianzhu saw her son Liao Xiaoping in front of the coffin. Although his expression was sad, his back was still straight.

In this way, Jiang Lianzhu was relieved.

Although she can enter the palace to pay homage, it is only for today.

As women, they can only kneel and worship for one day during the royal funeral.When Jiang Lianzhu stood up and walked out, she was grabbed by someone. Looking back at her captor, Jiang Lianzhu's eyes were filled with surprise and joy.

The ones who came were none other than the Second and Third Treasures.

"Why are you here?"

"Mom, Master said that you have returned to Beijing. My sister and I miss you, so we begged Master to bring us to see you."

Liao Xiaoan explained to Jiang Lianzhu affectionately.

Why doesn't Jiang Lianzhu miss her two children?

"Mom misses you too. You go to pay homage to the prince, and then go home with your mother."

Liao Xiaoan and Liao Xiaole were very happy to hear Jiang Lianzhu say that they no longer need to live in Zhenbei Marquis. However, today's occasion was not suitable for looking happy, so they calmed down their expressions, followed Jiang Lianzhu, and went to give gifts to His Highness the Crown Prince. Kowtow.

When the second and third treasures saw their brother's eyes full of sadness, they also became sad.

So, the two of them wanted to step forward to comfort their brother. Unexpectedly, Liao Xiaoan was shocked as soon as he patted Liao Xiaoping on the shoulder.

"what happened?"

Jiang Lianzhu asked quickly.

"Brother, there are... bugs on him!"

Liao Xiaoan was not afraid of anything but bugs. Jiang Lianzhu put the little bug in the palm of her hand and looked at it with confusion in her eyes.

"Son, all the clothes on your body have been folded and incense-scented. How come there are bugs?"

Liao Xiaoping didn't know the reason either.

"I have been in the East Palace these days, maybe I was brought out from there...".
