Zhen Huan finally caught Liu Qi and found evidence that Concubine Nian framed Shen Meizhuang . At the beginning, the emperor did show that Concubine Nian wanted to punish Concubine Nian.
It’s a pity that Zhen Huan was deceived by the emperor’s superb acting skills in the end. He gave Concubine Nian enough time to prepare. What’s more coincidental is that the two confidant imperial physicians under Nian Fei, Jiang Cheng and Jiang Shen, happened to find the prescription for treating and , which was formulated by the imperial physician . With this prescription, Concubine Nian escaped the difficulties. The emperor also understood and revoked the punishment.
But the stolen things were not their own after all, so they soon missed them and took advantage of the opportunity of the epidemic to treat the epidemic and demanded a bribe. However, after learning the news, the emperor did not follow the normal process to cure them. Instead, he sent out a mysterious organization - Blood Drops...
Yang Jiaofeng talks about " The Legend of Zhen Huan " Issue 50: The Legend of Zhen Huan: The emperor wants to eliminate Jiang Cheng and Jiang Shen, just order directly, why use Blood Drops?
1,
These little masters in "The Legend of Zhen Huan" are indeed not easy to survive in the harem. Without a few confidants, it will be difficult to get to the end!
For example, Zhen Huan, she was actually in danger several times, especially in her health, and she relied on her little Wen Shichu. Even her good sister Shen Meizhuang survived the epidemic because Zhen Huan asked for help from Wen Shichu.
Similarly, as the leader of the harem, Hua Fei , also needs to raise a few confidants. For example, the lame eunuch may have been lame because of Concubine Hua. Otherwise, a lame man would have been a bit unconsistent with Concubine Hua's character. Of course, Hua Fei also has two confidants, the two imperial physicians mentioned above, who are brothers, named Jiang Cheng and Jiang Shen.
But these two brothers are different from Wen Shichu. They are childhood friends with Zhen Huan and have had a deep relationship since childhood. It was only after the Nian Concubine entered the palace that she won over these two people in the Imperial Hospital. Her loyalty was far less than Wen Shichu and Zhen Huan.
The reason why they depend on Concubine Nian is very simple:
1 is Concubine Nian. Although she is usually domineering, she is still quite generous to her own people. For example, after the child of Fucha Guiren was knocked out by pine nuts, Zhen Huan was suddenly found to be pregnant. While Nian was envious and jealous, she also asked her brother to find an outsider to to take the pulse of . As a result, they gave the doctor a hundred taels of silver as soon as they met. It is conceivable how much silver did Jiang Cheng and Jiang Shen usually get from Concubine Nian?
Second, as an imperial physician in the Imperial Hospital, it is normal for him to stay with him and have a backer to gather with Concubine Nian.
Of course, the most important reason is that these two imperial doctors are not simple at all. To put it bluntly, they are not actually standing on the side of Concubine Nian, but are on several boats.
2.
As the little masters in the harem, especially those with ambition, they must have a confidant imperial physician no matter what.
On this point, whether it is the emperor or the empress dowager, he also acquiesced the concubine Nian's support for Jiang Cheng and Jiang Shen. On the one hand, in order to make her feel at ease, on the other hand, Concubine Nian had a trustworthy imperial physician and would not doubt Huanyixiang given to her by the emperor.
As a famous doctor in obstetrics and gynecology, Jiang Cheng's medical skills will naturally not be false. Even the doctor invited by Nian Gengyao can see the problem of Nian Fei. As an imperial physician, Jiang Cheng would not be unclear. For example, once Jiang Shen asked Jiang Cheng, saying that every time he asked Concubine Nian for Ping'an's pulse, he was worried and sighed. Why?
Jiang Cheng changed the topic and confronted Jiang Shen:
"Precaution your mouth and do your business!"
This shows that Jiang Cheng has found problems, but due to the situation, he dared not say it. Either the empress dowager, the emperor or the queen told him around the bush, threatened him and prevented him from telling the truth. Either Jiang Cheng thought he had a stronger backer, such as the emperor or the queen mother, who was a double-faced spy with Hua Fei.
However, judging from the later encounter of Dr. Chen who was sent to the palace by Nian Gengyao, there was musk remaining in Hua Fei's body, which was a well-known secret in the Imperial Hospital.At that time, Dr. Chen first went to the Imperial Hospital to transfer Hua Fei’s medical files. The old doctor in the Imperial Hospital told him that almost all the Imperial Hospital had treated Hua Fei.
When Dr. Chen gave Hua Fei such a pulse, he found that the root of the disease was easily detected. Why can't the Imperial Hospital find out that there are so many Imperial Doctors in the Imperial Hospital find out?
Later, I was scared by Aunt Zhuxi, and Doctor Chen could only hide this secret in his heart forever.

Although the two imperial physicians Jiang Cheng and Jiang Shen concealed Hua Fei's infertility, they still did their best to frame others.
For example, framed Shen Meizhuang for "fake pregnancy". Although Hua Fei is the mastermind behind the scenes and Liu Qi is the main culprit, Jiang Cheng is also a link between them. When Zhen Huan brought Liu Qi to the emperor, the emperor was stunned:
"Why are you?"
On the one hand, he was confused. The Nian family is also a general's family. If Liu Qi was instructed to frame Mei Zhuang, the root cause was not eradicated afterwards. On the other hand, I was also puzzled, why didn’t Zhen Huan stay in the harem well, and why did she interfere in the matter and arrest Liu Yan?
Because of this, he suspected that Zhen Huan had colluded with Liu Qi and came to find trouble for Concubine Nian.
But after some inquiry, the emperor decided to believe Zhen Huan, but when dealing with Concubine Nian, he was careless. At that time, he ordered Su Peisheng to come in, and then issued two orders:
"Go to the Imperial Hospital to issue an order, Jiang Cheng and Jiang Shen were given death! Hua Fei Guo seized the title and demoted to nobles... Slowly, Guo seized the title and demoted to concubines!"
It was very interesting here. When Su Peisheng heard that he wanted to give Jiang Cheng and Jiang Shen to death, he was obviously stunned and looked disbelief. On the one hand, as we inferred just now, Jiang Cheng and Jiang Shen are very likely to be the emperor's people. He sent the concubine to implement the "Huanyixiang" plan last year. On the other hand, Su Peisheng knew that Jiang Cheng and Jiang Shen were the people of Concubine Hua, so it would have a great impact on executing them like this.
In fact, this is true, because Su Peisheng then sang a double act with the emperor, delaying the time for Concubine Hua:
"It's just that the Empress Hua's resignation is late tonight, and I'm afraid the whole palace will be alarmed!"
4,
Later, the emperor just said that the resignation of Concubine Hua's resignation will be postponed to tomorrow, but did not say that the destiny of Jiang Cheng and Jiang Shen was postponed. Why didn't Su Peisheng go to pass the order?
So, the decision to execute the two imperial physicians Jiang Cheng and Jiang Shen is probably for Zhen Huan to see. Su Peisheng may have even visited the Imperial Hospital in person through other ways and passed the news.
Because he left enough time for Concubine Nian to do something, the emperor knew that she had a way to escape the blame when he woke up. This was also his deliberate complaint before Su Peisheng went to Yikun Palace to to pass the imperial edict:
"Every day I am worried about the epidemic, I don't know when it will be the end?"
At the same time, it also corrected the reason for Su Peisheng's intentional call of Concubine Nian Nian, because he knew that the relegation could not be executed:
"I didn't say it, don't call Concubine Nian Nian!"
Of course, the emperor had a hundred reasons to remove Concubine Nian, and there were also a hundred reasons not to remove Concubine Nian, after all, he still expected her brother Nian Gengyao to fight on the front line. If Concubine Nian was moved at this time, it would be unfavorable to the overall situation.
However, Jiang Cheng and Jiang Shen, two obstetricians and gynecology doctors, came up with the prescription for treating the epidemic. Of course, this was also the prescription they stole from Wen Shichu.
Although the emperor knew that this was a bit strange, he naturally would not investigate it in order to get Nian Fei to escape from the crime. In other words, although Jiang Cheng and Jiang Shen framed Shen Meizhuang, they were not the main culprits after all, and they had their merits and demerits.
However, when Zhen Huan later revealed that the prescription for the treatment of the epidemic was not original by Jiang Cheng and Jiang Shen, but from Wen Shichu. And when these two people used their positions to ask for property, they were determined to kill themselves?
5,
If the emperor wants to kill Jiang Cheng and Jiang Shen, there are a hundred ways, and even like the previous time, he just needs to send Su Peisheng to pass on a message and he can be sentenced to death, but why do he use the Blood Drops to secretly organize it?
We use the exclusion method:
First of all, the two imperial physicians Jiang Cheng and Jiang Shen framed Shen Meizhuang, which was confirmed when Liu Qi was caught. The emperor also sent an order to die at the beginning, but this order was not implemented. If the emperor really wanted to die for them because of this, he would not choose Zhen Huan to complain again.
Moreover, Hua Fei also accepted the matter of framed Shen Meizhuang. The reason why she was fine was because of her merits and demerits, not because she was confused. Then if the emperor turns up old accounts and executes two imperial physicians, he can go through the normal process and just give him death. There is no need to use blood droplets.
The two imperial physicians Jiang Cheng and Jiang Shen accepted bribes in private, and those who gave money were treated, and those who didn't give money were not treated. This was told by the emperor. In fact, such things in the palace are too common. They are not arrested very much. If the emperor is serious, he can also be directly sentenced to death.
Blood Drops are a secret organization after all, mainly used to deal with more important people. It would be a bit of a big deal if the two imperial physicians used this organization because they accepted bribes. As for what the emperor said, the epidemic is not clear at the moment, so it is also a lie to not be able to kill them.
After all, he said that according to Jiang Cheng and Jiang Shen’s method of treating the epidemic, the epidemic cannot be cleared at all. Even if the prescription belongs to them, hasn’t it been submitted to the emperor before? It’s not impossible to treat the medicine if you change the prescription.
6,
So, is it because Zhen Huan complained that Jiang Cheng and Jiang Shen stole Wen Shichu's prescription that the emperor made up his mind?
Of course, we are not saying that the previous reasons are not just reasons. When the emperor considered getting rid of these two imperial physicians, he naturally considered all these reasons. Sometimes I don’t want to kill myself because of one thing, but because several things happen one after another and accumulate to a certain level, I get to the point of killing myself.
However, the emperor probably did not rehabilitate Wen Shichu for this matter, otherwise the following scene would not have happened:
Because Jiang Cheng and Jiang Shen were suddenly assassinated by blood droplets, the two imperial physicians were killed by robbers when they left the palace and returned home. The emperor also thought about the two who were responsible for the treatment of the epidemic. On the one hand, he strengthened the investigation of the thieves, and on the other hand, he also gave 100 taels of silver and gave him a grand funeral:
"Recalling the two of them's contributions during the epidemic, I would like to express my praise and specially gave 100 taels of silver to hold a funeral for him!"
Because Zhen Huan recommended Wen Shichu to the emperor, the person in charge of the epidemic during the treatment of the Imperial Hospital transformed into Wen Shichu, although Jiang Cheng and Jiang Shen also stole his prescription before. However, at this time, the imperial physicians at the Imperial Hospital believed that it was because the two imperial physicians Jiang Cheng and Jiang Shen died, and the prescription for the epidemic was handed over to Wen Shichu and he improved it.
However, the people in the Imperial Hospital did arouse hatred. The two "respected" imperial physicians died in a bad life. They all came to congratulate Wen Shichu on his rise. It was really worth the hatred of Concubine La Nian for Wen Shichu.
So, because Fang Zi was not original by Jiang Cheng and Jiang Shen, the emperor was angry and killed them, and this reason was not sufficient.
7,
In fact, the emperor sent the blood droplet to get rid of Jiang Cheng and Jiang Shen after careful consideration. The reason is very simple:
Since they were the two imperial physicians who sent the blood droplet to get rid of it, it proves that the emperor does not want others to know that these two people were killed by themselves. The other person who wants to hide from is not someone else, but the Nian concubine who has a close relationship with these two imperial physicians.
Although everyone in the Imperial Hospital knows that, just like Aunt Zhuxi said:
"The Imperial Hospital has the same tongue..."
But after a long time, no one can guarantee that no one will let it go. As Jiang Cheng, Jiang Shen and Concubine Nian get closer and closer, the emperor's suspicious personality will naturally arise. Because he could not guarantee that Jiang Cheng and Jiang Shen would not reveal anything to Nian Fei. Once the secret of "Huan Yixiang" was told, it would destroy their great plans.
Although Zhen Huan said that if he killed two imperial physicians, Jiang Cheng and Jiang Shen, it would give people an illusion that the emperor only likes to kill heroes. After all, in the opinion of the time, the epidemic was indeed cured by them. That's why the emperor said that if you want to get rid of them, there are so many ways to do it.
But the emperor has never killed the heroes. Didn’t Nian Gengyao get rid of all the later ones? Do you still care about the two little imperial doctors?
The real reason, in addition to the secret of "Huanyixiang" mentioned above, another reason is that the emperor cannot punish Jiang Cheng and Jiang Shen's crimes.
If it is because of framed Meizhuang, then the master Hua Concubine will be implicated. If it is because of stealing the prescription, it is also implicated in Hua Concubine. If it is because of accepting bribes, to be honest, you will not be punished until you die, and there is no need to use blood droplets.

Because Zhen Huan suddenly asked the emperor, why did the emperor love children so much and favor Concubine Hua so much, but she has no children?
As a result, the emperor spoke:
"She will not have children!"
When Zhen Huan asked the reason again, the emperor stopped talking, and then changed the topic and went to Yangxin Palace to find the person in charge of the blood droplets.
Even Zhen Huan saw that Concubine Hua was not pregnant was very strange. Does Concubine Hua herself doubt it? In addition, Nian Gengyao also sent Dr. Chen to take the pulse a few days ago. The emperor naturally became even more worried that Jiang Cheng and Jiang Shen would reveal some information about Concubine Hua. After all, they both followed Concubine Hua to do a lot of bad things.
: It is obvious that they were eliminated, and Hua Fei naturally became suspicious. It would be better to kill them secretly. It would be reliable to finish them all.
The death of Jiang Cheng and Jiang Shen also tells us:
In the workplace, it is better to speak less and do more, but not to do things that damage professional ethics; of course, no matter which industry you are in, following the right leader is important, and whether the leader you follow is following the right leader is more important; you must have a bottom line in your life, not that you cannot take it, even if you steal it for the time being, you must pay it back sooner or later; and you must be low-key in doing things, and the glory is unlimited for the time being, but it is just because no one can replace you for the time being. Once you have a spare tire, you will be killed immediately...
More importantly, it is best not to inquire randomly, let alone let the leader know that you have the little secret of the leader in your hands!
I wanted to please both sides and get some oil and water, but I didn’t expect to be blinded by the lard and lost my life in a confused way. Alas!
