Chapter 565: Rumors
Shoukang Palace is burning with smoked cages, the newly fu pine branches are scorched and fragrant, and several pots of blooming white camellia are in full swing, and they are placed on the flower stand in a staggered manner, which is still the pure and elegant atmosphere of the past.

The sound of the red sandalwood cloisonnΓ© enamel bell on the ground is slow, like the passing of an hourglass, and everything looks like the quiet appearance of the years. It's just that it's not commensurate with the calm and calm of these years, and Mama Bai and several palace people are a little unrelenting, just forced to be calm.
Guo Shanggong was even more sure in her heart, she picked up the teacup and took a sip gently, then stood up elegantly and said: "Don't dare to disturb the peace of the Queen Mother, I still have to take care of the banquet in the imperial dining room for the day after tomorrow, so I will leave." If the Queen Mother saw that these things were inappropriate, she asked them to change them immediately. β
"The old slave can be saved, and the palace has a heart", Mama Bai stood up and gestured to the palace people on the side to offer their purses. Before Guo Shanggong moved, he saw the curtain inside, and a palace maid hurriedly walked out and whispered a few words in Mama Bai's ear. Mama Bai didn't care about saying hello to Guo Shanggong again, so she lifted the curtain and walked inside.
A pair of nominal godparents, no matter when and where, always feel more polite and a little less close.
Guo Shanggong casually called his godmother, but he didn't hear much respect in his words, and now that Mama Bai abandoned her, she didn't necessarily care a little.
The wind seemed to be blowing harder outside. With the curtain raised by the palace maid, as soon as Guo Shanggong came out of the warm pavilion, he was suddenly chilled by the cold wind outside, and he couldn't help wrapping the dark purple embroidered silk silver dahlia cloak on his body tightly.
Although the body is cold, a heart is full of blood. In the past few days, the entire imperial city has been full of vegetarian eyes.
As soon as she thought of cooperating with her master's actions so perfectly, the smile on the corner of Guo Shanggong's mouth gradually spread, permeating in the cool wind of early winter, and fluttering in her heart.
From the evening, the atmosphere in the palace is strange. A wisp of rumors quietly blew out of nowhere, but it took more than half an hour to blow all over the palace.
It is rumored in the palace that the queen mother is not accidentally infected with a cold, but suddenly fell ill and came extremely fiercely, and now she is unconscious.
When the news came to Fengluan Palace, Queen Chu was happily having dinner, raised her eyes and instructed Banxia: "Spread the word outside, only say that Fengluan Inner Palace, the palace is so anxious that she can't sleep all night." Then it was rumored that Ronyan came in to speak, remember, to cover up, and he happened to fall in the eyes of others without paying attention. β
Banxia Gong agreed, and walked out quietly. Qin Yao twisted the handkerchief, handed it to Queen Chu, and said with a light smile: "Mama Bai's trick is really good, Su Guangfu never imagined that she would turn against her." β
Queen Chu covered her lips and sighed softly, her slender phoenix eyes were bright, like ice and transparent.
She said in a deep voice: "Lost and returned, good is great, she was not a traitor and evil person in the first place, in the final analysis, the Queen Mother was fortunate to have her to protect her that day." β
Rumors are like the wind, and naturally they are intensifying. Not only were the people in the harem panicked, Banxia deliberately arranged it, the Tai Hospital was brightly lit, Luo Nayan visited Queen Chu from Fengluan Palace, and was directly sent to Shoukang Palace, still living in the room where he treated the Empress Dowager that day.
At the second watch, Guo Shanggong's maid slipped into Guo Shanggong's room quietly, with a smug smile: "Lord Shanggong is really clever, the slave maid just showed her tone in the imperial dining room, and now there are many discussions in various palaces." Even the queen couldn't hold her breath, and ordered Luo Nayan not to leave the palace these days. β
Guo Shanggong was afraid of the cold, and hugged the small hand stove as soon as winter came. At this time, he put the hand stove on his lap, while feeling the warmth of the silver silk frost charcoal in the copper gilt hand stove, and the other hand leisurely stroked the mutton fat jade Ruyi on the kang table, showing a smug smile.
As she spoke, she untied her cloak, stood beside the charcoal stove and warmed her cold and hard fingers, and threw some freshly peeled orange peels and pine branches into it with tongs.
After drinking another cup of hot tea to warm up, she smiled slightly, and she said: "Concubine Xu Xian and Concubine Meng Shu couldn't sit still, and the two of them went to visit the sick together, wanting to serve the queen mother, but they were blocked back by Mama Bai. β
After a general description of the situation outside, Wu'er took out a piece of paper from her arms and handed it to Guo Shanggong: "I quietly entered the Tai Hospital under the pretext of looking for some cinnabar, and when I saw that it was a mess, I took advantage of the chaos to copy their prescriptions. β
Guo Shanggong gently picked up the prescription and browsed it carefully, although he didn't understand pharmacology, he also knew that this was by no means a prescription for treating wind and cold, there were cinnabar, heavy buildings, safflower and other things, and it was about the idea of fighting poison with poison.
The solemn and decent Guo Shanggong had a sinister smile on her face, she looked at each other with Fu'er, crumpled the letterhead in her palm, and lifted the lid of the stove and threw it in, watching the confetti turn to ashes.
Sitting cross-legged on the edge of the kang, she took the hand stove handed by Guo Shanggong, warmed her gradually stretched fingers, Wu Nong's soft words were mixed with a faint Beijing accent or two, and said with a smile: "Shanggong has made a great contribution this time, and the sect leader and his old man must be rewarded." β
Guo Shanggong lightly brushed the hair on his forehead, and his lips curled slightly: "How do we divide each other, it is because of your blessing that things can go so smoothly." β
Su Ri's gentle and obedient Zhu'er now has eyes like a sharp blade, and sneered: "What kind of big birthday do you have no intention of doing in your spare time, the old woman has lived too long." Don't worry about it, let's still pretend not to know, and tell the Shanggong Bureau what to do. β
The corners of Guo Shanggong's lips curled, obviously very careful, and replied casually: "That's natural, the six departments and twenty-four divisions are too busy to stop now, how can they have the leisure to pay attention to the outside affairs?"
The two of them were complacent here, and Yu'er suddenly asked, "Have you sent the flowers of the Bright Wei Palace today?"
"Don't worry, two pots of green lilies, this morning on the warm pavilion of the Bright Wei Palace, the tassel girl must be seen between the entry and exit", Guo Shanggong's eyes were also shining with stars, and his tone was slightly excited: "My lord, we have been waiting for many years, and we are finally looking forward to today." β
"Silence", she heard her call inadvertently, her eyes sank, and she scolded him: "Be careful that the wall has ears." We are all in the palace, and the more we get to this time, the more we should be cautious. β
Guo Shanggong knew that he had lost his mouth, and hurriedly changed the topic: "I know, you go back and rest, I'll go see Tassel and hear what news she has there."
The two got up at the same time, Guo Shanggong casually took the blue satin black fox wind cloak on the shelf, covered himself tightly, and went out, blowing the cold wind in the middle of the night, frowning slightly.
It is still the weeping willow in the small building of the moon and caressing, the red bean is wearing a lotus blue dark veined big cloud, and the hand is holding a pale pink lotus palace lamp, which evokes a slight halo, and has long stood there waiting.
