Chapter 180 Nodding and Shaking Head
The two old women were already filled with hatred.
After hearing Yu Yuanzheng's question, they all nodded.
"Did they do something while the princess was giving birth?"
The two looked at each other before nodding.
It was done by the two of them together, and they will remember it for the rest of their lives.
Now they are not far from death.
It was a blessing from heaven that before they died, they gave out the person who harmed them, their former master.
"Did you two do this for Aunt Qing at that time?"
The two nodded again.
"The old princess died three years later. Was it because of any illness she had during childbirth?" Yu Yuanzheng continued to ask.
But the two shook their heads.
Now Yu Yuanzheng was a little confused.
No? Then why did he die in three years?
Seeing that Yu Yuanzheng was confused, the two old women began to gesture.
An inaudible sound came out of his mouth.
Although Yu Yuanzheng didn't understand, she could tell from their expressions that she had misunderstood.
After thinking about it again, I understand.
"Were you already out of the palace when the princess died?"
The two nodded.
Oh, that’s why I shook my head just now because I didn’t know.
It’s really troublesome not being able to speak.
But at least we know that the second old lady really took action against the old princess, and she did it when she was giving birth.
"Did you two do anything to the ginseng slices that grandma ate?" Shangguan Ziqi interrupted and asked.
He thought of the second old lady's mumbling in her sleep that the secret guard heard: two pieces of ginseng sent her to the underworld.
The two old women then turned to look at Shangguan Ziqi, who had remained silent the entire time. They hadn't dared to look at him before.
Both were shocked.
so similar.
This is the prince!
Of course, this prince refers to the old prince.
The prince nowadays is actually not as good as the one in the game of chess.
The two of them knelt in front of Shangguan Ziqi at the same time.
He kept kowtowing.
Yu Yuanzheng saw their fear.
"Okay, get up quickly. This is the old prince's eldest grandson." Yu Yuanzheng introduced him to them.
Only then did the two of them stop kowtowing.
When she got up, she was in tears again, and the fear was still there.
Shangguan Ziqi repeated the question again.
The two nodded heavily.
The matter is clear.
When the old princess gave birth, she was killed by the second old lady who used tampered ginseng.
Yu Yuanzheng is a doctor, and it was also mentioned in the novels I read.
The ginseng may have been treated with other medicines, most likely soaked in saffron water.
Thinking of this, she asked directly.
Then the two old women nodded.
Everything is clear.
The prince slammed his fist on the table beside him.
Then the table fell into pieces and was scrapped.
The two old women were so scared that they hugged each other and trembled.
He never imagined it would be this way.
He was taken to the outer courtyard by his father to be raised when he was very young.
The Second Old Lady was in charge of the household affairs of the palace, but this was limited to the inner courtyard. The outer courtyard was managed by the chief steward and my father, and the Second Old Lady was not allowed to interfere.
If not, he might have died.
Later, Aunt Wang came and had a third brother, and her focus again became jealousy.
He grew up safely.
Thinking of this, the prince closed his eyes tightly and took a deep breath.
When I opened my eyes again, I had calmed down.
"Ziqi, wife, see if you can cure them?" The prince looked at Yu Yuanzheng without changing his expression.
"Daughter-in-law, take a look first."
Yu Yuanzheng began to examine the two old women in front of everyone.
Take their pulse and check their throat.
Finally, he shook his head helplessly.
"Father, it's been too long. Their throats are completely damaged. It's not just a simple poisoning, but they've been completely destroyed. Over the years, the poison has been slowly eliminated by their own regulation."
The prince was somewhat disappointed after hearing this, but he also knew that the possibility of a cure was very slim.
"Father, my daughter-in-law has an idea. If you want them to be witnesses, you can ask them to write it down."
The prince raised his eyes.
This is also possible.
As a result, the two old women shook their heads violently.
"You can't read?" Yu Yuanzheng understood immediately.
The two nodded.
Alas, another road is blocked.
"Do you want to bring those who harmed you to justice? And avenge the suffering you have endured for so many years?" Yu Yuanzheng began to guide again.
nod.
"You guys are probably under sixty now, right?"
"They are fifty-five years old this year." An Qi said.
"Father, they have suffered so much and have been punished. If they testify and bring the Second Old Madam to justice, can you let them go?" Yu Yuanzheng had to know the prince's attitude first.
"If they can really provide evidence, I can let them live. I'll let them do some work on the farm to earn a living."
He is already quite old and won't live long, so the prince naturally has this tolerance.
With the prince's promise, Yu Yuanzheng could express her thoughts.
“You have heard that your father does not care about your past, but you must be good witnesses.
You are not fools. You can learn to read and write, even if it's a little slow. Just learn some common characters. Then you can go to the palace and write down everything you know in front of all the masters. You will leave Concubine Qing with no chance to refute it, and then you will succeed."
After hearing this, the two old women looked at Yu Yuanzheng in amazement.
This is too difficult for them.
"What? Don't you want revenge? Think about the hard times you've had. Think about how the person who hurt you is still working as a high and mighty old lady in the palace. Are you willing to accept that?"
The two looked at each other again, and the hatred in their eyes surged again.
They both nodded at the same time.
“Okay, since you agree, you can’t back down halfway.
I will arrange someone to teach you how to read tomorrow.
I hope you can learn it sooner and don’t keep your father waiting too long.
If you can't learn a few words in six months, there's no point in living."
Yu Yuanzheng gave sweet dates and then beat him with a stick.
Although the prince was eager to succeed, the two of them were not in a good condition to come into the palace to testify.
Let that old guy have some fun for a while longer.
If it weren't for the fact that she gave birth to two children for the Shangguan family, he really wanted to kill her with a single sword.
But that would be too quick a death.
Moreover, as the head of the palace, it is impossible for him to solve the problem with just one sword. He has to make the second house irrefutable, otherwise he will be criticized.
The prince didn't have much memory of his biological mother as he was too young at that time.
It took him so many years to find out that she was murdered.
As a son, he is unfilial, extremely unfilial.
At this time, the prince also felt a little hatred towards his father.
It was he who failed to take good care of his mother.
At the same time, he hated his maternal grandparents, wondering why they had to bring concubines as a dowry.
In the end, he failed to establish a relationship with the royal palace and save the Jiang family, and eventually ended up in ruin.
If that woman had not followed him into the palace, none of these things would have happened. He would have grown up with his mother by his side.
"Ziqi, from now on, there will be only one woman, Yuan Zheng, in your backyard. Take care of yourself." The prince left these words and strode away.
I feel confused when I hear Shangguanziqi.
He had never thought about having a few women in the backyard. He didn't need his father's reminder.
Yu Yuanzheng and Shangguan Ziqi looked at each other, not understanding why their father said this.
Could it be that he has also figured out that having too many women means more trouble?
Yu Yuanzheng comforted the two old women for a while. When she examined them just now, she found that both of them were in very poor health. If they were not treated properly, they would not live long.
To be a good person to the end, Yu Yuanzheng wrote two prescriptions under the light and gave them to An Qi.
And explained a few words on how to use the medicine.
An Qi was also afraid that the two old women would die before they could testify, so he gave the two old women some medicine on the way back.
The prince returned to the palace, picked up a pot of wine, and went up to the highest roof of the palace, which was also the roof of the main courtyard.
An Yi stood behind him, guarding.
