Transmigrating into a Demon Spirit to Blow up the Entire World-Chapter 132.2
The gaze in Yuwen Yin’s eyes just then immediately made Qi Wang recall yesterday night’s nightmare. Ning Shi also had this cold and disdainful gaze when she looked at him in the dream, as if he was a dirty and penniless* mud on the ground. So, how could he still have the mind to care about others in the midst of his raging temper? The only thing he wished to do now was to gouge those eyes that dared to look down on him.
*good-for-nothing
Xu momo and the imperial guards returned at this time.
But no one saw that apart from the two imperial guards following her, the fluffy and white little quilt had also followed suit. Even though it walked in an adorably crooked and klutzy way, but it still kept pace with her, and had never lagged behind.
When Xu momo went in the small courtyard Yuwen Yin lived in, the little quilt was still dazedly sleeping in on bed, and was thoughtlessly rolling and unrolling itself. But when it started to unroll itself for entertainment, the approach of unfamiliar footsteps could suddenly be heard from outside, that it quickly stopped rolling itself up, and motionlessly slumped in a corner and started to play dead.
After stepping in the room, Xu momo had the same reaction as the little quilt, having an expression of unconcealed astonishment to the simple and crude interior of the room. When she bent over to whisper to the Empress Dowager, she naturally didn’t forget to realistically report this bit of information. But the food Yuwen Yin buried in the flower pot had already stayed overnight, and was also stained by a layer of flower soil, so the possibility that imperial physician Song could still detect something wasn’t promising at all.
The little quilt couldn’t help but be somewhat anxious. In ancient times, there was only one method to test for poison, and there weren’t any scientific instruments as well. Imperial physicians could only depend on sight, hearing, and inquiries. They weren’t immortal cultivators, so they might not be able to detect the problem through the naked eye like him.
But Yuwen Yin wasn’t in a hurry. He was naturally well-aware that the possibility of detection wasn’t promising at all. Since Qi Wangfei placed the poison, she would definitely do so without leaving a trace, not to mention that it really wasn’t a highly poisonous substance that could discolor the silver needle. So, after Imperial physician Song checked the food for a long time over there, he undoubtedly shook his head, “This humble official couldn’t find any common poison. But……”
However, imperial physician Song paused at this juncture, then hesitantly told the Empress Dowager: “But this official found an arisaema erubescens and safflower flower. If these two were eaten together, then they can become a very strong abortive agent, but the heir is a man……”
After hearing this, the little quilt inevitably became extremely flabbergasted. But a brief curvature inconspicuously flitted by the corner of Yuwen Yin’s lips.
–Although the imperial physician couldn’t detect the poison, but he can let the imperial physician detect other things.
There were currently a lot of concubines. Looking around the room, there were a lot gorgeously dressed woman bedecked with glittering jewels, headed by madam Zheng, the most favored concubine in recent years. She had a very dignified and proper sitting posture. After thinking about her pregnancy the doctor had diagnosed the day before yesterday, she couldn’t help but slightly raise her head a bit. But her expression underwent an abrupt change before imperial physician Song could finish speaking. In the next instant, she straightforwardly directed a gaze full of hatred to Qi Wangfei!
Madam Zheng had already concluded that this abortifacient drug was originally something Qi Wangfei had meant to give her.
As to why this drug was sent to Yuwen Yin’s place, this was most probably wrongly placed by the subordinate due to a momentary lapse. This was because madam Zheng had a miscarriage five years ago due to Qi Wangfei’s schemes. The unborn child was already 5 months old at that time, and could already be smoothly born in a while. However, the power of Qi Wangfei’s family was so strong, that there was no possibility of fighting against each other. It hadn’t been easy for her to get pregnant again, yet for the other party to actually intend to repeat the same trick again, was truly very vicious!
But this matter was really not Qi Wangfei’s fault.
Yuwen Yin happened to catch sight of madam Zheng’s personal maidservant secretly leading in an unfamiliar woman from the side door after school the day before yesterday. The other party’s behavior was slightly different from that of an ordinary woman. She also had the smell of chuanxiong rhizome on her body, and was obviously a female folk physician. Which inferred the fact that madam Zheng might be pregnant. Yuwen Yin, who had limited resources, would not be able to obtain any precious medical ingredients. Only the relatively cheap common safflower flower, as well as the Sichuan pepper, which had a similar scent to arisaema erubescens. So the safflower flower and Sichuan pepper were boiled together, then poured all together to the food buried in the flower pot.
The monstrous hatred of having once lost a son in addition to the instinctive desire to protect oneself actually made madam Zheng swiftly kneel down to the ground in a sharp turn of thoughts, as she tearfully kowtowed towards the Empress Dowager: “Beseeching the Empress Dowager to take charge! Beseeching the Empress Dowager to save the life of the child in this concubine’s stomach!!”
As soon as this words came out, not only the Empress Dowager, but even Qi Wang had been shocked still. He hurriedly asked his favorite concubine with a pleasantly surprised yet shocked expression: “Are you really pregnant?”
Madam Zheng nodded, and said in a pitiful-looking way: “This concubine had just been confirmed to be pregnant the day before yesterday. Seeing as Wangye was busy making preparations for the arrival of the Empress Dowager, this one resisted from saying anything, and wanted to wait for the Empress Dowager’s arrival in order to give a pleasant surprise to the elderly. However, the matter of Ershizi being poisoned by someone broke out today first, then after hearing that imperial physician Song had detected abortifacient drugs……”
After mentioning this part, madam Zheng’s tears immediately continued to fall like beads, as she mournfully said: “This concubine suddenly remembered the lost of the first unborn child 5 years ago, and even the methods used were practically the same. Moreover, although the abortifacient drug had been sent to Ershizi place, but this concubine, on the other hand, had received the real poison!”
