The Village Girl Who Jinxes Her Husband Is Filthy Rich Chapter 1229: Medicinal Reaction

Chapter 1229: Medicinal Reaction

While Yuwen Ling drugged Jiang Zhennan, another oppressive and dark atmosphere seemed to be brewing in the Imperial Palace!
"Your Majesty, the soup is here!"
In the royal study, Noble Consort Zhou, dressed in a noble purple-red dress, came in with a tray.
It was obvious that there was a bowl of soup on the tray!
Yuwen Longyan watched Noble Consort Zhou enter and put down the memorial in his hand. He smiled at Noble Consort Zhou and said," My beloved consort's cooking skills have improved greatly recently! The soup you make is getting better and better. I miss it every day!"
Imperial Consort Zhou's heart couldn't help but thump when she heard this. Why did she feel that she was feeling the same way every day?
This made her heart panic!
However, she still smiled calmly and replied," Is that so? Your Majesty likes my cooking, and it makes me feel honored! Come, Your Majesty, drink the soup!"
As she spoke, Noble Consort Zhou handed a bowl of ginseng soup to Yuwen Longyan!
After Yuwen Longyan finished drinking the soup, Noble Consort Zhou immediately ran back to the Moon Palace. When she saw Qin 'er, she immediately ordered," Qin' er, I want to drink the soup again. Get the imperial chef to make it!"
Qin 'er immediately answered, "Yes, Your Highness!""
After Qin 'er left, Noble Consort Zhou's exquisite face sank. She immediately instructed Qi' er in a serious and cautious manner," Qi 'er, take this Queen's token and go to the Imperial Academy of Medicine to secretly find Principal Zhang. Tell him that I am not feeling well! Remember, this must be done discreetly. Don't let anyone find out, especially not Qin 'er!"
When Qi 'er heard this, she was very puzzled.
Hasn't the Noble Consort been doting on Qin 'Er? Why would she suddenly ask for the imperial physician and hide it from a little palace maid like Qin 'Er?
Although Qi 'er had her doubts, this was her master's order, so she could only do as she was told.
Soon, Qi 'er brought Principal Zhang, who was carrying a medicine box, over.
After Principal Zhang arrived, Noble Consort Zhou immediately ordered the servants to leave.
When only Principal Zhang and Noble Consort Zhou were left in the hall, Noble Consort Zhou's expression immediately became somewhat anxious. She stretched out her hand and said," Principal Zhang, check my pulse!"
Principal Zhang was very puzzled.
On the first day of every month, the Imperial Academy of Medicine would check the pulse of the masters of the various palaces to confirm that their bodies were safe and sound or whether they had any children.
It was just past the tenth day of the first lunar month.
Generally speaking, Principal Zhang was only responsible for the Emperor's health. Then, for each rank of concubine, there would be a royal doctor responsible for checking their pulse.
However, because Principal Zhang and Noble Consort Zhou had a friendship, and Principal Zhang was deeply in love with Noble Consort Zhou, he was very attentive to Noble Consort Zhou.
As long as Noble Consort Zhou looked for him, he would definitely be there at the ready!
Noble Consort Zhou secretly found him, and she seemed to be very anxious.
Principal Zhang took out a piece of silk and placed it on Noble Consort Zhou's wrist. Then, he very seriously felt Noble Consort Zhou's pulse.
A moment later, Noble Consort Zhou asked impatiently," Principal Zhang, how is my health? Is there a problem?"
Principal Zhang replied," Your Majesty, you are very healthy!"
When Noble Consort Zhou heard this, her eyes lit up. The anxious and worried expression on her face slowly disappeared. However, she immediately asked suspiciously," Is what you said true? Is my health perfect?"
"Yes! This lowly subject does not dare to hide anything from the Noble Consort!" Principal Zhang said seriously.
When Noble Consort Zhou heard this, the uneasiness and panic in her heart finally eased a little.
"Mistress, the soup is here!" Just then, Qin 'er's voice came from outside.
Noble Consort Zhou looked at the door, then opened it herself. She took the soup from Qin 'er's hands and instructed," There's nothing else for you to do now. You may leave!"
"Yes, Mistress!" Qin 'er looked through the crack of the door in confusion and saw a figure, but it did not look like the Third Prince.
"What are you looking at? Get down!" Imperial Concubine Zhou noticed Qin 'er's movements and shouted sternly.
After Qin 'er left, Noble Consort Zhou came to Principal Zhang with the bowl of soup and said to him," Principal Zhang, help me check this bowl of soup!"
Principal Zhang looked at the soup in front of him. He first looked at it, then brought it under his nose to smell it. Finally, he took out a silver needle from the medicine box and dipped it into the soup.
"How is it?" Noble Consort Zhou asked.
Principal Zhang said, "There is no problem with this bowl of soup!"
Then, he asked doubtfully,"Noble Consort, do you feel anything wrong?"
Otherwise, why would she secretly find him to take her pulse and check her soup?
When Noble Consort Zhou heard this, she frowned and said," I've been enjoying this soup a lot lately. I only like to drink the soup that Qin 'er brings over. It's like I'm addicted to it! I feel uncomfortable if I don't drink for a day!"
Then, she looked at Principal Zhang very seriously and said," I suspect that this soup was drugged. But now you're telling me that everything is normal! Could it be that I am overthinking?"
Principal Zhang thought for a moment and said," Your Highness, in that case, this humble subject suggests that Your Highness stop drinking the soup, especially the soup Qin 'er brought over! We'll see how it goes in two days!"
Noble Consort Zhou thought about it and could only nod." Alright then!"
After Principal Zhang secretly left, Noble Consort Zhou instructed her confidants to monitor Qin 'er's every move 24 hours a day.
Although Principal Zhang didn't find anything wrong, it made her feel even more uneasy!
Two days later
"Ah, ah." A series of painful screams came from the Moon Palace.
"Ah, Mistress, what's wrong with you?" The palace maids and eunuchs immediately rushed forward in panic to support Noble Consort Zhou, who was lying on the ground and wailing in pain." Get the imperial physician, quickly get the imperial physician!"
"Send someone to find Principal Zhang!" Noble Consort Zhou grabbed her hair and shouted at her confidant with a twisted expression.
"Ah!" Noble Consort Zhou suddenly pushed away the palace maids and eunuchs who were supporting her, grabbed her head, and slammed her head against the wall!
"Mistress…" The palace maids and eunuchs were panicking as Noble Consort Zhou tried to commit suicide by slamming herself against the wall.
If anything happened to the Noble Consort, none of the servants of the Moon Palace would survive.
However, with her appearance, was she crazy?
Qin 'er saw Noble Consort Zhou's inhumane, ghostly, and miserable appearance, and her entire face turned deathly pale.
She knew very well that Noble Consort Zhou had stopped taking her medicine.
When Principal Zhang arrived at the Moon Hall, he saw seven or eight palace maids and eunuchs holding down Noble Consort Zhou.
Noble Consort Zhou's hair was disheveled, her clothes were in a mess, and her face was twisted with madness. There was blood on her forehead, and her strength seemed to have become incomparably strong in an instant. The strength of seven or eight people could not suppress her madness!
Principal Zhang's pupils constricted, and his expression was one of shock. He immediately went forward to check on Noble Consort Zhou's condition.
