Chapter 244 Why is my forehead so hot?
During this time, he would hear news about her from time to time.
She asked Meng Qihuang to treat the epidemic, she made epidemic prevention booklets, and she created a tea to clear heat and strengthen the body...
She, she, she!
Everything she did, without missing a single detail, reached his ears.
She's everywhere I go!
The more he learned, the more amazed he became.
He knew she was talented, proficient in both poetry and painting.
But I never expected that she also knew medicine. Even something as difficult as an epidemic could be handled calmly and well.
A thought suddenly popped into Gao Xian's mind.
What would it be like if Qin Jiuwei were to manage his harem...?
The idea excited him, but it also terrified him.
Once the thought of fear takes root, he will be completely out of control and do irrational things that he will regret.
So I buried it deep in my heart, trying not to think about it.
But he wanted to bestow upon her the highest possible reward.
Eunuch Liang hurriedly replied, "Your Majesty, the Marquis's residence has received the decree, and everyone in the residence is very grateful to Your Majesty."
Gao Xian nodded, and after a moment of silence, he was about to ask a few more questions.
A palace maid rushed over and knelt down to report: "Your Majesty, Consort Chen is experiencing another unusual condition. The imperial physicians request your presence."
Gao Xian frowned immediately, and his original intention to ask more questions was instantly withdrawn.
He glanced at Eunuch Liang and said, "You may leave now."
After saying that, he turned around and strode towards Mo Qingkui's bed.
The Marquis's Residence, Qinglan Courtyard.
"Miss." Xiaohe rushed in, her face showing some anxiety.
Qin Jiuwei looked up, her pen pausing slightly: "Any news?"
After returning from the main courtyard, she sensed something was wrong and quickly sent Xiaohe to investigate.
Xiaohe nodded vigorously, her voice filled with shock.
"It's Consort Chen, she...she's been poisoned."
Poisoned!
Qin Jiuwei's heart skipped a beat.
Her brows furrowed, and a complex emotion flickered in her eyes.
Unexpectedly, the same thing happened again in this life...
In her previous life, Consort Chen was also poisoned once.
At that time, she suddenly developed a high fever, her whole body burning hot as if her bones and blood were being evaporated.
However, because Consort Chen was poisoned, all the imperial physicians were summoned to Consort Chen's palace.
Her condition was ignored.
Xiaohe knelt anxiously before the Imperial Concubine's palace, pleading desperately. Snow fell on her, crushing her back.
Gao Xian declared that if Consort Chen could not be cured, not a single imperial physician could leave.
Xiaohe knelt for a day and a night, until she couldn't even make a sound anymore.
That high fever almost cost her her life; her clothes were soaked with sweat, one after another.
In her dazed state, she thought she was going to die.
In the end, Lin An couldn't bear to see it anymore and secretly handed over some medicine.
The medicine tasted so bitter it almost brought tears to her eyes, but she still forced herself to swallow it.
It took her a full six months to recover from this illness.
Later, Lin An told her the truth: this illness had shortened her lifespan by nearly twenty years.
It was after that illness that she devoted herself even more to studying medical books.
Later, I developed the Qingqi Fuzheng Tea and gained a better understanding of medical principles.
Qin Jiuwei sat down by the window, feeling that everything from her past life now seemed like a dream.
The Imperial Palace, Hanzhang Hall.
Consort Xian leaned against the chaise longue, her eyes revealing undisguised joy.
Su Yun respectfully offered tea and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, Consort Chen is definitely not going to make it this time. Our move was truly ingenious. Who could possibly suspect us?"
The virtuous concubine smirked, "That vile woman should have died long ago! It's only because of my mercy that she's still alive!"
Qin Le'an stood to the side, also very happy, his eyes full of excitement.
Now that Consort Chen is dead, she will be the most favored woman in the palace!
She's one step closer to becoming empress!
That vile Consort Chen treated her like a dog before, and she deserves her current fate!
As Consort Xian sipped her tea, her gaze drifted intentionally or unintentionally to Qin Le'an beside her, and the smile in her eyes suddenly deepened.
The Marquis's Residence, Qinglan Courtyard.
A cold wind was blowing outside, causing the window frames to tremble slightly.
"Miss." When Song Mama came in, she saw Qin Jiuwei leaning against the window in a daze and couldn't help but feel worried.
He quickly grabbed a thick cloak, walked over to her, and carefully draped it over her shoulders: "It's cold outside, come inside."
Qin Jiuwei shook her head slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but she couldn't speak.
As soon as she stood up, she felt a dizzying sensation, her vision went black, and she almost lost her balance.
"Miss!" Granny Song exclaimed immediately and reached out to support her.
I instinctively reached out and touched her forehead, and was immediately startled.
"Miss, why is your forehead so hot!"
"Someone come here! Someone come here quickly!" Granny Song shouted loudly without thinking twice.
The maids rushed over and helped Qin Jiuwei back to her inner room.
Her face was flushed, and there was an abnormal heat emanating from between her brows. Her breathing was also more rapid than usual.
Qin Jiuwei was just helped back to the inner room, her head still spinning.
Before she could figure out what was going on, Xie Jue's voice suddenly rang out from outside the door.
"Mommy, please open the door!"
Xie Jue stretched out her small hand and patted the wooden door in front of her.
But after he patted the door twice, it remained tightly shut, and there was no response.
He was puzzled; what was going on?
So he raised his voice and called out again, "Mother—"
Before he could finish speaking, his mother's weak voice came from through the crack in the door.
"Jue-ge'er, Mother is a little tired and wants to rest for a while." Qin Jiuwei swallowed hard, forcing herself to speak.
Does Mother want to rest?
Xie Jue was a little worried, but still nodded obediently.
She said in a childish, high-pitched voice, "Then Mother, you should rest well! I'll come see you again tomorrow!"
After he left, Qin Jiuwei closed her eyes.
The thought of my sudden fever made my heart tighten again.
The early symptoms of the epidemic include a persistent high fever...
Her hand, gripping her sleeve, suddenly tightened, her knuckles turning slightly white.
"Immediately send someone to invite Doctor Meng Qihuang over," Qin Jiuwei said slowly, each word seemingly uttered with all her might.
Granny Song panicked instantly, her voice trembling, "Miss, you don't suspect..."
