Ji Chengyin was right. After Chen Yinu was poisoned and sent back to the palace, the Queen Mother was indeed furious.

Her anger was different from bluffing. It was a precursor to real murder.

"A female doctor whose origin is unknown?" She spoke slowly, with a calm tone that carried a stormy atmosphere, "What a courage."

"Queen Mother, calm down." The beautiful eunuch hurriedly came forward to serve, with a soothing tone in his voice, "It's just a grown-up girl. If the Queen Mother wants to kill her, it's just a matter of talking."

"Killing her is a small matter. I am concerned about whether Ji Weiyu's poison can be cured." The Queen Mother lay on the phoenix couch, kneeling at her feet. Two beautiful maids were lowering their eyebrows and patting her legs. "Send a message to the Grand Duke tomorrow morning and ask her to take time to go to the Phoenix Palace. I don't know whether the woman is really capable or just pretending to be mysterious."

"Yes."

The Queen Mother closed her eyes slightly, enjoying the service of the palace servants. "If she doesn't detoxify, she will be beaten to death on the spot in the name of deceiving the emperor."

The light tone was like casually deciding what to eat for dinner tomorrow, without any bloody smell of taking someone's life.

"Yes." The eunuch agreed, "If she detoxifies..."

If she doesn't detoxify, do you need to ask more?

She must be killed.

In short, the woman will not live.

"How is Anzhi?"

The female doctor Chen's name is Chen Anzhi, and she is one of the eight female doctors in the Queen Mother's palace.

"The situation is not good." The eunuch frowned, "The imperial physician has carefully examined her, but has not yet found out what caused her to be unable to speak."

The queen mother's expression was gloomy: "Could it be poisoning?"

The eunuch replied: "The imperial physician said it is not a symptom of poisoning."

"That's really weird." The queen mother sneered, "Could that female physician be good at evil magic?"

The eunuch did not dare to answer again.

The queen mother stared at the exquisite armor on her fingers, thinking that this woman was really tired of living. Not only did she dare to save the people the queen mother wanted to kill, but she also dared to attack people in her palace.

"Changqing, what kind of death do you think I should arrange for her?"

"The Queen Mother has always been kind, elegant and noble, so she naturally doesn't like bloody methods." Meng Changqing smiled respectfully, "Why not send her to the Jiaosifang and let the maids there carefully train her for a period of time. If she can't survive under the maids, then she will die young. If she is lucky enough to survive..."

The Queen Mother raised her hand and gently stroked her forehead: "Forget it, let Mingzhu teach her a lesson first."

"Yes."

The Queen Mother closed her eyes and her voice became more lazy. "If she is good-looking, send her to the Jiaosifang. If she is ugly, let Mingzhu take her back to feed the wolves in her mansion."

She is just a grown-up girl, not worth her extra thought.

"The Queen Mother is wise."

The Queen Mother has many eyes and ears, and many people running errands around her. As soon as the palace gate opened the next morning, someone passed the news to the Grand Duke's Mansion.

The Duke of Chu, Ji Mingzhu, had not slept all night and was drinking and having fun with several young men in the mansion. Hearing this, he raised his eyebrows and said, "Are you a grown-up girl?"

"Yes."

"The sun really rose from the west. In broad daylight, there are people who are so aggressive and want to die?" Ji Mingzhu smiled arrogantly, "I have never seen such a daring woman. Let's go and meet her."

The person the Queen Mother wanted to kill, someone actually dared to save?

The key is that he can really save her.

Ji Mingzhu became interested, stood up, and ordered people to undress. Two beautiful young men immediately stood up to help the Duke change clothes and make up.

After a while, Ji Mingzhu, dressed in gorgeous clothes, was surrounded by many maids and young men, and went to the Phoenix Palace in a mighty manner.

Unfortunately, the Phoenix Palace is no longer the same as before.

"See you, Grand Duke." The guard leader led his men to guard the gate of the palace tightly, with a respectful and fearful attitude, "The Phoenix King has not yet stood up, I will inform the Grand Duke?"

Ji Mingzhu sat on the sedan chair, and said in a cold tone: "I don't need to inform you when I go in and out of the palace. Is the Phoenix Palace so powerful now?"

"Please forgive me, Grand Duke. After waking up last night, the Phoenix King became irritable and angry. He punished several maids and guards in the palace who were negligent in their work, and issued a strict order that anyone who dares to neglect his duties again will be beaten to death without mercy."

Ji Mingzhu narrowed his eyes: "When did Ji Weiyu have such courage?"

Issued a strict order, and all were beaten to death?

Why doesn't this sound like Ji Weiyu's style?

"To reply to the Grand Duke, His Highness the Phoenix King did say so." The guard bowed his head respectfully, "But it was because he was poisoned before and his life was at stake, so..."

Oh, Ji Mingzhu understood.

Scared to death.

She smiled coldly: "In this case, I won't make it difficult for you, go and report it."

"Yes, thank you, Grand Duke."

The guard hurriedly turned around and arrived at the God's Palace. Yan Qing was handing the freshly boiled medicine to Ji Weiyu. Hearing this, he couldn't help but ponder: "Who is this Grand Duke?"

"The emperor's biological daughter, the first princess in the royal family, born to the imperial concubine, the most favored by the queen mother." Ji Weiyu held the medicine bowl, with a bit of disgust on her face, "Because she has a similar style to the queen mother, both like to raise beautiful girls."

Yan Qing sighed, the royal family of Chu is so open?

"Speaking of which, Your Highness raised several young ladies in Suzaku City." Ji Weiyu turned to look at Yan Qing, her tone somewhat subtle, "But Your Highness's way of raising them is different from hers."

The Queen Mother and the Grand Duke raised beautiful young ladies purely to satisfy their own desire for pleasure, while Yan Qing was training them to be loyal ministers and generals in the future.

They are both princes of the royal family, but they are completely different from each other.

"The royal family of Chu State is really special." Yan Qing twitched the corner of his mouth, "Yin is rising and Yang is declining?"

The Queen Mother and the Duke were both so arrogant, but the Emperor and the other emperors all behaved with their tails between their legs, which really gave people some insight.

"There is no way, the Queen Mother alone is enough to subvert the court. The Grand Duke is her favorite granddaughter, so naturally she will condone everything. Except for a few upright officials in the court who dare to file memorials for impeachment, other ministers dare not speak out." Ji Weiyu smiled lightly, "There are still some people who are complicit and would rather be the lackeys of the Queen Mother."

The royal family took the lead in bringing trouble to the court. The Queen Mother and the Duke blatantly supported male favorites and ignored the rules of etiquette. The whole country of Chu was now in complete chaos.

"The rule set by our ancestors that 'no politics is allowed in the harem' is indeed reasonable. The Queen Mother's control of government affairs will plunge the country into dire straits." Ji Weiyu's eyebrows turned cold, "This is what the Queen Mother desperately wants to put her to death. reason."

Because the royal family has always followed the system of male superiority and female inferiority, the Queen Mother felt that women were no weaker than men, so she tried to change the system of Chu State by herself, and wanted to break the convention and become the Queen of Chu State.

The Chu State, from the king and ministers to the common people, all swore to death for the Queen Mother's behavior of disrupting the court order.

"I admire her a little." Yan Qing walked to the side and sat down, holding his chin lazily, "Dare to think, dare to do, and almost did it - From this point of view, who is the man in Chu State? Comparable to her?"
