Chapter 117 Who is it?
Chapter 117 Who is it?
Cui's life is in the hands of the Cui family.
Lin Qingyang gave various instructions in Cui's courtyard. The other courtyards were not far away, so they naturally knew about it.
"She is a maid from the countryside, but she can treat illnesses. She even asked the emperor to order her to treat Cui. Look at how capable she is. She is so powerful in the prince's mansion!"
Lin Meir was dissatisfied in her own yard.
Lin Qingyang naturally had no idea what Lin Meir was thinking at this moment.
After the maids boiled the water and prepared the bathtub, they gave Cui Jiaojiao a bath under Lin Qingyi's command.
Lin Qingyi would not do it herself. She just put a pill of medicine that Aying gave her in advance in the water, so it was the maids who gave Cui Jiaojiao a medicinal bath.
The maids saw that the water for washing had become cold, and asked Lin Qingyang if she needed hot water.
Lin Qingyang touched the water in the tub and said, "The medicinal bath is almost done. Go get the ice cubes you prepared."
The maid didn't dare to question and had to go get some ice.
When the ice cubes were brought, Lin Qingyang asked someone to pour them directly into the bathtub.
The maids looked at each other.
This person is still sick. Wouldn't it make his illness worse if he uses ice cubes right after taking a hot bath?
Lin easily saw through their confusion and said, "The things I asked you to prepare are for her treatment. If you don't listen to me, then there's no need for me to stay any longer."
Several maids looked at each other. Even though they had doubts in their hearts, they just listened to her since she was here to see a doctor.
Several maids poured ice cubes into the tub, quickly filling it up.
Cui Jiaojiao seemed to be frozen. She had some reaction but did not wake up.
"Just let her soak like this. She can come out when the ice melts. Remember to dry her body and keep warm. She will sweat. Just wipe her. She can't eat anything except the food I let her eat."
Lin Qingyang gave the instructions and went out to explain them again to the nanny.
When they returned to the front yard, the prince and Prince An had been waiting there for a long time.
When the prince saw her coming out, he asked, "Thank you for your hard work, Princess An. Is Cui in danger of her life?"
"We'll know in a few days whether she has any, but I've told the servants not to eat anything other than the food I prescribed. Keep an eye on her these few days. As for whether the medicine can be prepared, it depends on her luck."
Ah Ying lowered her head behind.
"I'll come again tomorrow." After saying that, Lin Qingyang prepared to leave with Xiao Anwang.
The prince would never agree to that!
"You've been busy in my house for so long, I have to treat you to a meal!"
Prince Xiao An quickly stopped the prince's behavior.
"We won't have dinner here. The food is ready at home. Besides, it won't be too late to invite you when your concubine is well."
So the prince did not try to keep him.
Cui was certain that she was poisoned, and it was the same "disguised" poison as in the previous times.
Who is this person who poisoned?
In the carriage of Prince Xiaoan's mansion, Prince Xiaoan stared at Ah Ying seriously for the first time and asked in a low voice: "You should know who poisoned her, right?"
Ying looked up, frowned, and nodded slowly.
"Poisoning incidents keep happening in the capital. If someone finds out about you, you'll be in trouble, and it will also bring trouble to the Yang family. So, who is the person who poisoned you? Where is he?"
Ah Ying once briefly explained some of her information to Lin Qingyang, but she was reserved.
"Since the person who was poisoned is a concubine of the Prince's Mansion, then the person who poisoned her should also be related to the Prince's Mansion. I'm sure you and the Prince have some suspicions!"
Of course the prince had his doubts. Cui, who was poisoned, did not have any fatal problems and was not the first choice for the crown princess. All the problems happened on the night of the football game.
If someone didn't want her to go, then all the concubines in the Prince's Mansion might be possible, especially Xiao Caihe who replaced Cui Jiaojiao the next day.
But if the person who poisoned her was not targeting Cui Jiaojiao, then who was he targeting?
First, there is the Queen Mother. Anyone who can bring poison into the palace must be of extraordinary status. Azhu has no grudge against these people, but the people behind Azhu are the most crucial.
"Are you going to the Prince's Mansion tomorrow?"
Xiao An Wang asked Ying.
Ah Ying still nodded and replied, "Yes, I'll go there in the next few days, maybe I can find something."
Ah Ying is sensitive to poison. If someone who poisons someone passes by her, she can tell the difference. However, this skill may not be understood by others.
For three consecutive days, Cui Jiaojiao first took a hot water medicinal bath and then an ice bath.
The servants strictly followed Lin Qingyang's requirements and prepared diet for Cui Jiaojiao. Although she was not awake yet, she could drink soup.
Cui Jiaojiao's complexion gradually returned to normal.
On the third day, after seeing the patient, Lin Qingyang told the nanny: "It is estimated that Cui will wake up today. When she wakes up, you must pay close attention to her and make sure she does not eat the wrong food."
"Yes"
The prince's people, seeing how busy Princess Xiaoan had been for the past three days, initially doubted whether she could cure Cui at such a young age, until Cui's complexion improved.
After each treatment, Lin Qingyang would go from Cui's courtyard to the front to report to the prince. Fortunately, Prince Xiao An accompanied her every time.
Today, Lin Meir, who must have figured out the pattern, made inquiries in advance and met Lin Qingyang halfway.
Lin Meir's arrogant temperament will never change.
"Princess An has come to the Crown Prince's Mansion several times, but I haven't been able to see you. You're so busy. But Cui is lucky. She got sick and you came to treat her. I wonder what disease she has. Is it contagious?"
As he said this, he deliberately took a step back, as if he was disgusted.
Lin Qingyang felt a little tired after each treatment. Seeing Lin Meir, he didn't want to say much, but something suddenly flashed through his mind.
He walked to Lin Mei'er, stopped, and whispered, "If Cui's illness is not because of you, you'd better be less ostentatious recently, otherwise both you and I will be implicated. By the way, don't go to Cui's room recently, especially when someone asks you to go."
After saying that, Lin Qingyang turned and left.
Lin Meir didn't understand what he meant. What did he mean by "Cui's illness was not caused by you"? She wasn't caught in the rain and wasn't injured. She was just sick because of her poor health. Why was she blaming others?
Could it be that Cui is sick?
When Lin Meir thought of this, she felt scared.
If Cui was not sick herself, then it meant that someone had "murdered" Cui, and someone would have used the same method to murder herself.
This was the first time that Lin Meir had been so scared since she was a child. Although she didn't want to hear what Lin Qingyang said, it was a matter of life and death, so she hurriedly took her maid back to her own yard.
"Did you notice anything just now?" Lin Qingyang asked Aying.
Ah Ying shook her head. "It's not her. At least the person who just appeared next to your sister should be fine."
