Chapter 127 Fu Cha Yi Xin 03
The people around her were startled by Songzi's sudden action. No one dared to step forward for a while. It was Jianqiu who reacted first and immediately reached out to drive Songzi away.
But now Songzi had gone mad and was very strong. He scratched Jianqiu's arm, leaving several bloody marks.
Others also reacted, whether they were there to watch the show or those who truly cared about the queen, they all came to the queen's side to check on her condition.
Especially Concubine Hua, who had never been on good terms with the Queen, so she took advantage of the chaos and stomped hard on the Queen's feet several times. The force she used was not small at all, and it was obvious that the Queen's feet must have been injured by her.
As soon as Zhen Huan squatted down beside the Queen, Song Zi, who jumped up from the Queen's face, scratched her neck several times. She cried out in pain and quickly covered her neck.
After Matsuko left, the queen touched her face and found her hands covered in blood.
"Ah!!!" The queen screamed miserably, and then she felt the pain in the back of her head. She couldn't accept it for a moment and soon fainted.
"Queen!"
When the concubines saw the queen faint, they all showed anxious and worried looks on their faces.
But Concubine Hua did not restrain her expression at all, her face was full of gloating: "Tsk, the Queen's face is probably going to be disfigured, what bad luck!"
Jianqiu ignored the bloodstains on her arm. She immediately had the Queen moved to the palace and also asked someone to invite the imperial physician.
Despite such a major event as the Queen's injury, the concubines did not leave but instead went into the palace.
There was quite a commotion here, and the Queen Mother of Shoukang Palace also knew what happened here, so she immediately came to Jingren Palace.
As soon as she entered the palace, the Queen Mother called the concubines and walked to the Queen's bedside.
At this time, the queen had taken off the crown on her head and was lying on the bed with her hair loose. After the blood on her face was wiped off, the wounds caused by pine nuts' scratches were clearly visible and looked eerie.
Her face was covered with wounds, on both sides of her cheeks and forehead. The most serious ones were the ones from her brow bone to the corners of her mouth. The deepest wounds were still bleeding even after being wiped several times.
The queen might have had a nightmare, and she was mumbling to herself. When her mouth moved, the wound on her face was pulled, making her whole face look even uglier and unbearable to look at.
When the Queen Mother saw her like this, she frowned unconsciously.
She looked at Concubine Qi standing beside her and said, "I heard that the queen was scratched by a cat, so I hurried over. What happened? How could she be scratched out of nowhere?"
Concubine Qi tightly grasped her handkerchief, feeling uneasy. After all, she was the one who gave Songzi, the cat, to the Queen. What if it suddenly went mad and hurt the Queen? What if she was blamed? Now she could only clear herself. The Third Prince still needed her care, and she couldn't let anything happen to him. So she knelt in front of the Queen Mother and said:
"Queen Mother, the Queen is so pitiful. The cat in the Queen's palace got angry and suddenly jumped on the Queen's face. The Queen was hit and fell to the ground. Because the cat was not driven away at the time, the Queen was severely injured. By the time the cat was driven away, it was too late, so...that's why the Queen is injured like this now."
"Empress Dowager, I often come to the Queen's Palace and have seen Songzi many times. It has always been docile and would never suddenly go crazy and hurt people. It must be... someone must want to hurt the Queen, so they used Songzi. I beg the Queen Dowager to thoroughly investigate this matter."
At the critical moment, Concubine Qi's brain became much more flexible. Songzi suddenly went crazy, and someone must be using it to harm the queen.
She has never done such a thing, so it will definitely not be blamed on her.
Jianqiu was listening nearby and felt very panicked. She really didn't expect that the usually stupid Concubine Qi could actually say such words. If the Queen Mother really found out something, the Queen Mother would definitely be scolded by her.
Jianqiu was confused and wanted to say something, but her movements were too hurried and she didn't notice that she suddenly touched the wound on her arm. Only then did she feel the belated pain and couldn't help but make a sound in her throat.
She ignored it and walked out of the inner room. Before the Queen Mother could speak, she suddenly said, "Your Majesty, the Imperial Physician has finished treating the Queen."
This sentence was too abrupt. There were many smart people present, and they all realized something after hearing it.
The Queen Mother was the champion of the previous palace fight. After hearing what Jianqiu said and seeing the unconscious nervousness in her eyes, she understood something. It seemed that Songzi's sudden madness today must have something to do with the Queen. She just wanted to hurt someone but failed, and ended up getting what she deserved.
But after all, Yixiu was her niece, so she couldn't say anything.
"Matsuko will suddenly go crazy. As for whether someone is using it to hurt the queen, let's wait until we catch him." The queen mother said perfunctorily, and then continued: "The most important thing now is the queen's injury. Let's listen to what the imperial physician says first."
The imperial physician stepped forward and replied respectfully, "Your Majesty, the wound on the Empress's face has been bandaged by me. However, the wound on the Empress's face is too deep and may leave a scar. Also, the Empress's foot was injured and she needs to rest well."
Hearing that the Queen's foot was also injured, Concubine Hua couldn't help but want to laugh, but because the Queen Mother was present, she didn't do so. She just covered her mouth with a handkerchief to prevent others from noticing her upturned mouth corners.
Yi Xin, who was sitting on the other side, also heard the results of the imperial physician's examination of the queen. It was she who did it because Songzi fell on the queen.
Before she went to the corridor, she inadvertently sprinkled something on the queen. It had something in common with the incense made by An Lingrong that could drive cats crazy. Her stuff could also drive cats crazy, but it was more powerful and more attractive to cats.
That's why Matsuko was attracted by the smell of the Queen on the way to pounce on her, and instead pounced on the Queen. After pounced on her, the smell on her body further caused the cat to go crazy and become stronger. This is why Jianqiu didn't wave it away immediately, but was injured instead, and the Queen was also more seriously injured by Matsuko.
Don't think she didn't see the malice in the Queen's eyes when she looked at her belly, and the pride in getting rid of her child. This was just an appetizer she gave to the Queen.
She was not in a hurry. Besides, the original owner didn't want the queen to die easily. There was still a long time, and the queen would suffer in the future.
As for Songzi, after hurting someone, she used some things to help it run away. She used her plant ability to check and found that it was now hiding in a safe place, so there was no need to worry about being caught. Presumably, it would not be executed this time.
