Chapter 43: The Return of the Ace Pigeon
That night, Liu Yunxiang came to the Queen Mother's bedroom and knelt down until dawn.
Mama Su walked out of it, shook her head and said, "It's really a stubborn temper, but this is the palace, Mama still has to persuade you to endure it." ”
Liu Yunxiang raised his head: "Mama, I'm not a soft persimmon." ”
"What can you do?"
"Since there is a pool of muddy water in this palace, please clear it. ”
"Do you have what it takes?"
"How do you know if you don't try?"
Mama Su sighed, "You go in with me, the Queen Mother didn't sleep much this night." ”
In the dormitory, the Queen Mother was wearing a middle coat, sitting on the warm floor, rubbing her forehead with her hands, and her complexion was extremely bad. Hearing the movement, she glanced up at Liu Yunxiang, and when she saw that she was about to kneel down and salute, she waved her hand.
"Okay, there are no outsiders, come and sit. ”
Liu Yunxiang still saluted, and then sat down on the warm couch opposite the Queen Mother.
Remember https://m in a second.
The Queen Mother looked at her scalded hands, although they were wrapped in muslin, but the blood was oozing out, which made people's hearts hurt.
"I asked you to follow this palace into the palace to avoid trouble, but it hurt you. ”
Liu Yunxiang shook his head, "Disaster can't be avoided, and Yunxiang doesn't want to hide either." ”
The Queen Mother lowered her eyes: "What you said outside, this palace heard it, and it was really a little overwhelming." ”
"Yun Xiang doesn't know what he can do, but he is willing to stir it up desperately, which is better than this water being muddy all the time. ”
"Heh, the seventh can't help you outside. ”
"Between women, he will only help more and more, just take care of the children at home. ”
The Queen Mother smiled, "You are very similar to this palace when she was young." ”
Liu Yunxiang raised his head, feeling that this sentence had been exaggerated, and he was a little embarrassed.
"The same stupidity!"
Liu Yunxiang pursed his lips, how could he scold himself.
The Queen Mother smiled, leaned over and whispered: "But this palace is now the Queen Mother, so this palace has won." ”
The Queen Mother got up, walked to the window, and looked at the day, although it was bright, it was a cloudy day, and it was still drowsy.
"In fact, the harem battle is also a continuation of the partisan struggle in the vestibule, and you have been dragged into this chaos, and you really can't escape. ”
The cold palace is in the southwest corner of the palace, where there is a dilapidated courtyard with high walls and a locked courtyard gate. The cold palace is always empty, not because there are few people who are beaten into the cold palace, but because the people who are thrown here, whether they are masters or minions, die in a short time.
When you die, you clean it out, and it's empty again.
"Snakes, ants, mosquitoes in summer, dripping into ice in winter, eating glutinous rice and drinking dirty water, no matter how strong a person is, he can't stay up for long. Zhou Lihuai said as he walked.
Liu Yunxiang turned around and asked Zhou Lihuai, "You often walk in the palace, so what kind of person do you think Concubine Liang is?"
"Good people. ”
"Just good guys?"
"Don't fight or grab, accept it, and steal your life, this is also a way to survive. Otherwise, how do you think she would have survived until now with her weak nature? ”
But she couldn't escape after all. ”
"So this place is not a place where you can just grit your teeth and endure it. ”
When he came to the cold palace, Liu Yunxiang said that he was ordered by the queen mother to take the imperial doctor to treat the leg of the concubine, and the guard opened the door.
There was a barren grass in the courtyard, only a path in the middle, and Liu Yunxiang and Zhou Lihuai walked in one after the other. This yard is quite large, with a row of main houses, but the doors and windows of each room are broken, and there are black holes inside.
Liu Yunxiang only paid attention to the front, did not pay attention to his feet, accidentally kicked something, looked down and saw that it was a hand bone, and he was so frightened that he took two steps back.
Zhou Lihuai glanced at it, "The grass grows tall, and the people outside are lazy and refuse to look inside, so the corpse rots and finally turns into white bones." ”
Liu Yunxiang couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, that is to say, there may be how many corpses are in this grass!
This time she looked at her feet, quickened her pace, and hurried up the steps.
In the room facing the path, the door was wide open, but I didn't have to look for it, and at a glance I saw the person lying in the open room, just motionless, as if he was dead......
Liu Yunxiang and Zhou Lihuai went over, turned the person over and lay on his back. Zhou Lihuai probed his breath, shook his head and sighed.
"Dead?"
"Not almost. ”
"Then don't hurry up and save people!"
Zhou Lihuai treated Concubine Liang's legs, Liu Yunxiang cleaned the room a little, went back and brought a futon, removed the broken wooden windows from other rooms, lit a fire in this room, and set up a kettle.
The room was a little warmer, and she and Zhou Lihuai carried the person to the bed together.
Liu Yunxiang poured hot water from the kettle and fed it to Concubine Liang with a spoon, first she couldn't drink it, and it flowed out along the corners of her mouth, so she fed it little by little, and still drank some of it.
They couldn't stay here any longer, leaving behind the medicine, water, and food.
The next day, Liu Yunxiang came over, and Concubine Naliang had woken up and was lying on the bed, staring at the roof with dull eyes.
Liu Yunxiang walked over, but she didn't seem to hear it, and she was still motionless.
"Concubine Liang, the slave maid is called Liu Yunxiang. ”
“……”
Liu Yunxiang was silent for a moment and said, "The slave maid is the palace maid in the queen's mouth who saw you sprinkling water on the steps. ”
Hearing this, Concubine Liang slowly turned her head, and her dull eyes suddenly became fierce, but she was too haggard, so she was not afraid.
"I don't know you......" she said in a hoarse voice, struggling to speak, "why...... Hurt me ......"
Liu Yunxiang smiled, "I'm a little palace maid, what are you doing?"
"Behind your back...... Who is it?"
"Niangniang, who is behind me, then you need to think carefully. ”
Liu Yunxiang lit the brazier, poured the rice porridge in the food box into the pot, and heated it on the fire.
"Niangniang, if you want to die, no one will stop you. The people who hurt you will even cry for you, crying to gain a good reputation while scolding you for being stupid in your heart, dying unclear, and being weak for the rest of your life. ”
"You!" Concubine Liang trembled with anger.
After Liu Yunxiang finished speaking, Concubine Chong Liang smiled proudly, then turned around and left. Coming out of the cold palace, Liu Yunxiang noticed that a grandmother in a cyan palace dress had been following her.
She hurried to speed up, and was stopped by two guards as she turned the hallway.
She hurried to another fork in the road, but as she went up the steps, she was struck by a guard with the hilt of her sword, and then leaned forward, tripped her foot on the steps, and fell heavily to the ground.
She braced her arms to get up, and the grandmother stepped forward and stepped on her scalded hand.
"Hmm!" Liu Yunxiang snorted.
That foot was actually grinded a few times, and the pain made Liu Yunxiang almost faint.
"Liu Yunxiang, right? The grandmother squatted down and clamped Liu Yunxiang's chin, forcing her to raise her head, "Tsk, she is indeed a beauty, especially these eyes, which are really similar to our master." ”
"yes, I don't think so...... Hmm!"
The grandmother's hand slammed into force, almost crushing Liu Yunxiang's mandible.
"Our master has good words to reward you, if you want to survive in the palace, one is not to meddle in things, and the other is to learn to wag your tail like a dog when you see your master. To put it bluntly, you can climb into the bed of the Seventh Highness just because of this kind of resemblance, the master allows you, you have to know gratitude. ”
This grandmother shook off Liu Yunxiang and stood up: "Concubine Liang's affairs, don't interfere anymore, there's nothing to look at in the mirror and see clearly what kind of shitty thing you are!"
Liu Yunxiang collapsed to the ground weakly, and looked at his hand again, blood had oozed out of the thick muslin wrapping man.
