An Lingrong's Rebirth: Red

Upon hearing that Concubine Duan's nightmare was getting worse, Ling Rong thought about putting the medicine that Yu Ying'er used in her previous life to cause Zhen Huan to almost become dementia into Concubine Duan's medicine jar.

After all, Concubine Duan is suffering from nightmares now and needs the help of these medicines to help her sleep well.

It's just that this matter is too risky. But if Concubine Hua takes action, wouldn't it be convenient?

After all, this trick was originally thought up by Concubine Cao, so using the same trick again in this life would naturally be a natural outcome.

Originally, Lingrong was still thinking of asking Fu Changzai to come over and ask her to say some guiding words when paying her respects.

Unexpectedly, Fu Changzai came to the door herself and told Lingrong the story of Concubine Duan in detail.

How could Ling Rong not understand that the person behind the scenes was instructing her to have more contact with herself? If something happened one day, she could be blamed for the murder of Concubine Duan.

Who else but the Queen could have made such a plan?

But they all forgot that their nightmares were extremely serious and they had started to seek treatment from the imperial physician several days ago.

What was written on the pulse record was crystal clear and no one could find any fault with it.

On the contrary, wherever Fu Changzai went to, the concubines in that palace would be troubled by nightmares. It sounded like she was a plague god, which was really scary.

"Sister, I didn't expect Concubine Duan to be so resourceful that she could actually seduce the Emperor to stay overnight.

But her body was too weak, and she fainted after the emperor only called for water three times."

Lingrong never thought that Fu Changzai would be so unabashed about matters in the boudoir. She looked embarrassed and finally managed to stop Fu Changzai.

"Sister, it's fine as long as you know these matters in your heart. There's no need to talk about them like this."

Lingrong didn't feel shy, but continuing to discuss this topic would not lead to any result.

Could it be that I was going to tell Fu Changzai that I was particularly knowledgeable about the art of sex and that everyone here was scum?

"Sister has not been favored by the emperor for a long time, and she is embarrassed to even hear this."

Fu Changzai's smile was quite ironic. She completely ignored the fact that Lingrong was not in favor now because she was pregnant.

"Now that I'm pregnant, how can I serve the emperor?" Ling Rong replied casually, but her eyes deliberately looked at Fu Changzai, "Even if Fu Changzai is eager to win favor, she should be careful during her pregnancy."

Fu Changzai finally showed a slightly embarrassed look. She rubbed her nose and finally changed the subject.

Lingrong looked at Fu Changzai's expression and guessed that Fu Changzai had indeed seduced the emperor when she was pregnant, but she only became more courageous as the month went by.

"But Concubine Duan is now suffering from nightmares due to the effects of the drugs and has no intention of snatching the child away."

Fu Changzai's face was full of joy. After all, the baby in her belly was safe and would not be taken away by anyone.

But Ling Rong poured cold water on him. She said in a bland tone, "Nightmare disease will be cured sooner or later. Do you really think you can rest easy?"

Lingrong saw clearly that Fu Changzai was not very smart and could only take one step at a time and follow the Queen's instructions.

But Fu Changzai was completely unaware of this. Only after being reminded by Ling Rong did she realize that she had only solved a temporary problem.

"Sister, what should I do..."

Ling Rong waved her hand and interrupted Fu Changzai directly, "Isn't it known to me that the master behind Fu Changzai has never helped you?"

"The Queen...is unwilling to do it herself." Fu Changzai sighed. The Queen only provided some medicine and was completely unwilling to help.

Lingrong showed an angry expression on her face, but in her heart she was mocking Fu Changzai.

How could the Queen be willing to help her with her own affairs? Even though Concubine Duan had no children and was so sick that she seemed to be dying at any time.

After all, with her body like this, she can still occupy the position of concubine, which is an extremely rare thing.

The Queen would not let Concubine Duan fall so easily, and she even hoped that she could compete with Concubine Hua.

Fu Changzai had nothing to give the queen except a child. Besides, the queen only had eyes for her eldest prince, so she had no intention of raising a slave girl's child.

Even if he had to choose, he would only choose the current "eldest son" the Third Prince.

"It's not that the Queen doesn't have a solution, I'm just afraid of you, it's not that important."

Lingrong spared no effort to sow discord between Fu Changzai and the Queen. After all, it was much better to keep a restless person by the Queen's side than a loyal dog.

Fu Chang was staring at Lingrong. She stopped calling her sister and suddenly called her "Young Master" again.

"My lady, if you hadn't allowed me, how could I have gotten rid of my status as a slave and become the emperor's concubine?

Now that I finally have a child, a traitor is plotting to take it away, and the emperor has acquiesced, I... I really have no other choice."

When Lingrong heard Fu Chang calling her "young master", she felt a tingling sensation on her back. She cleared her throat and said, "Okay, crying is useless.

If you have the energy, you might as well go find the emperor and have a good cry."

Fu Changzai knew that crying in front of the emperor was useless, but seeing Lingrong's face full of impatience, she had to wipe away her tears.

"Since Concubine Duan has a nightmare, she will naturally try to find a way to cure it. If there is a medicine that can cure nightmares and turn people into fools, wouldn't that kill two birds with one stone?"

Ling Rong stopped there. Seeing Fu Changzai's puzzled expression, she had no choice but to add, "As for the medicine to cure the disease, you should think of a way."

"I see..." Fu Changzai nodded as if he had suddenly realized something. "Then, does sister have this medicine?"

"I've already given you an idea. As for the medicine, why don't you think of a way and ask the Queen?"

Lingrong didn't want to get herself into trouble, so she had already thought of a way for Fu Changzai so that she wouldn't put herself in danger and help Fu Changzai set up the trap.

Fu Changzai hesitated for a long time before she obediently left Chengqian Palace with Baoyuan, who was standing outside the door.

"My lady, this Bao Yuan seems to be no ordinary person." Zhao Shui fetched water for Ling Rong to wash her face, "While she was standing at the door, she kept talking to Zhi Zi.

In his words, he was asking whether the emperor had told the young lady that he wanted to give the child to Concubine Duan. "

"Fu Changzai ordered this. She didn't believe that the emperor wanted to give her child away as a gift. She always thought I was lying to her.

But... this maid is called Bao Yuan, which is quite interesting."

"What the young lady means is..." Zhaoshui thought of Baojuan and Baoque. Could it be that the queen particularly likes to give them such similar names?

"I guess she is the Queen's person." Ling Rong now felt a headache whenever she heard that the girl's name was from the Bao generation.

One or two of them are queens, so how could she dare to trust these innocent-looking palace maids?

"Then why don't you approach her and try to pass some false news to the Queen?"

Lingrong shook her head. Whatever she revealed would seem a little deliberate. The Queen was not stupid, and she would reveal her true colors if she wasn't careful.

"Let's deal with the matter of Concubine Duan first. Concubine Duan slept with him three times in one night. Concubine Hua will definitely not tolerate this and will try every means to plot against Concubine Duan.

Maybe Concubine Hua will solve the problem for her without Fu Changzai's help."

As Lingrong had expected, after Concubine Hua learned that Concubine Duan was serving her in the imperial court, she became very emotional. She called Concubine Cao to the Yiku Palace and scolded her for a long time, forcing her to think of some way to deal with Concubine Duan as soon as possible.

Just like in her previous life, Concubine Cao asked Concubine Hua to use the lucky star to put medicine on and off the medicine cover. However, within a few days, Concubine Duan's nightmare was cured, and it was replaced by drowsiness.

However, the servants serving Concubine Duan thought that their master was too tired in the past few days and needed a good rest to recover her energy.

Fu Changzai, on the other hand, was very quiet. She had not been to Chengqian Palace since that day. Lingrong did not dare to confirm whether it was Concubine Hua or Fu Changzai who did it.

But no matter who it was, being able to make Concubine Duan stay in the palace obediently and not come out to snatch other people's children was enough for Lingrong to secretly praise her a thousand times.

But after a few days, Jixiang still discovered something unusual. After all, Concubine Duan's sleeping time far exceeded her awake time.

She invited Imperial Doctor Wen to Chuxiu Palace, and easily found out that Concubine Duan had been poisoned.

If this medicine is used too much, it will make people sleepy and eventually lead to dementia.

It was obvious that Concubine Duan had been severely poisoned. Even Doctor Wen could only try his best to detoxify her.

Although Doctor Wen did not conduct in-depth research on detoxification, he had a deep knowledge of the subject and after several days of research, he finally found a way to detoxify.

However, it seemed that someone did not want him to cure Concubine Duan so quickly. One day when he was returning home from his night shift, someone covered his head with a black cloth, dragged him into an alley, and beat him for a long time.

Fortunately, those people did not want to take Wen Shichu's life. They left him with a breath of life and sent him back home by kind-hearted people.

As a result, Concubine Duan's illness was delayed for a few more days. It was not until Wen Shichu woke up at home that there was a chance to send the antidote into the palace.

However, the antidote alone is not enough. A bathing solution is also needed. Concubine Duan should take a medicinal bath for seven days to completely detoxify herself.

But this bathing method provided convenience for Concubine Fu. She chose the time to pretend to visit Concubine Duan and asked Baoyuan to find a way to put the medicine powder into the water used by Concubine Duan.

Baoyuan had no choice but fortunately they calculated the time well and happened to meet the eunuch who was fetching water.

While the eunuch was paying his respects to Fu Changzai, Bao Yuan poured a sufficient amount of medicine powder into the bathing water.

Unfortunately, Concubine Duan left a loophole on purpose. The moment Baoyuan poured the powder in, she was caught by the young eunuch and taken to the main hall.

At that time, Concubine Duan had already used Wen Shichu's medicine to recover her body. The so-called seven-day bath was a trap set up by her and Wen Shichu in order to lure out the person behind the scenes.

Fu Changzai is slow to act, but he is very fast at jumping into traps.

When she saw Concubine Duan sitting in the upper seat drinking tea, cold sweat immediately broke out on her face.

Bao Yuan was already pressed to her knees on the ground. She struggled hard, "My lord... My lord, save me!"

"I don't know what Concubine Duan means. Why does she treat Bao Yuan like this?"

Concubine Duan smiled and put down her tea. She raised her chin and asked the eunuch to let Bao Yuan go. "Why don't you ask your maids what you put in the water I bathe in?"

"My lady, I didn't do anything, but this eunuch suddenly held me down and dragged me into the palace."

Bao Yuan cried loudly. She rolled up her sleeves, revealing the red marks on her wrists. "It hurts so much when I was pinched. They are too bullying, my lady."

Fu Changzai didn't seem to expect Baoyuan to be such a good actress. She frowned and wished she could cover her ears.

It’s a pity that Baoyuan didn’t see Fu Chang’s disgusted expression. She continued crying loudly until her mouth was blocked by the eunuch.

"Won't Fu Changzai explain it?"

"What can I explain? Baoyuan has already said that she didn't do anything. You can't say Baoyuan wants to harm the queen just based on this eunuch's one-sided statement, right?"

Fu Chang was still calm at this time, but she was extremely panicked in her heart and tried hard to find a way to cover up the matter.

She originally wanted to hold on to the incident that only the young eunuch saw and accuse the eunuch of framing her.

However, she didn't expect that Concubine Duan would directly ask Jixiang to go out and check to see how many people saw Baoyuan take action.

After a while, three or four people stood in the hall, and they pointed out that it was Bao Yuan who sprinkled the powder in the water.

Fu Chang was a little stunned. She glanced at Bao Yuan and said, "Why not let Bao Yuan go and listen to what she has to say."

Baoyuan finally let go. She wanted to burst into tears, but was frightened by the cold looks from Concubine Duan and Concubine Fu and shut her mouth.

After a while, she spoke tremblingly, repeatedly saying that she did not sprinkle any powder.

"These people are from the palace of Concubine Duan, so they will naturally obey her orders." Bao Yuan still refused to admit it, "My lady, you can't believe what Concubine Duan said. I am really innocent."

"Empress Duan, what do you think?"

Concubine Duan shook her head and smiled. Looking at the master and servant trying to explain themselves, she despised them from the bottom of her heart.

He doesn't even have the brains to harm others, no wonder he can poison people so brazenly.

"auspicious."

Jixiang responded, she grabbed Baoyuan by the collar, and quickly searched her body and found a piece of yellow paper wrapped in medicine powder.

There was a faint layer of white on the yellow paper. Jixiang glanced at Concubine Duan, and after getting permission, he put the paper to Baoyuan's mouth.

Baoyuan struggled to push Jixiang away. She dodged backwards in fear, but was held down by those people.

"You were the one who sprinkled this powder into the water. If it wasn't poison, why would you be so scared and avoid it?"

Concubine Duan turned her head and looked at Fu Changzai. Her eyes were cold, which made Fu Changzai a little frightened.

"Why don't you give it a try too, Fu Changzai, to see how effective this medicine is?"

Fu Changzai fell silent. No matter how Concubine Duan pressed her, she refused to say another word. The next moment, she collapsed on the chair and began to groan.

"My stomach...my stomach hurts..."

Concubine Duan suspected that Fu Changzai was pretending to have abdominal pain to escape, but she was pregnant after all, so Concubine Duan had to take it seriously.

She ordered Jixing to lock up Baoyuan, and told the young eunuch to go to the Imperial Hospital and invite Doctor Wen over.

"Remember, Doctor Wen must be here." Concubine Duan did not trust others. She reminded them deliberately, but her eyes were looking at Concubine Fu.

However, Fu Changzai did not show even a second of hesitation, and Concubine Duan became a little anxious at this time.

"Go!"
