Chapter 33: Turnaround
King Ning has made great contributions to the management of the great drought in the north, and will return to the dynasty in the near future. Although the Queen Mother didn't like Chu Tianyou very much, due to the conventions of the royal system and the cold pressure exerted by Chu Tianze, she finally planned to discuss holding a celebration banquet for Chu Tianyou.
In Chu Tianze's view, this is not only a celebration banquet for Chu Tianyou, but also a reception banquet, and it is not only this time. Last time, Chu Tianze ignored the opposition of the ministers and the Queen Mother, and took a tough attitude to let Chu Tianyou come back. Under the pressure of the emperor, everyone reluctantly agreed, but no one really believed Chu Tianyou. In that case, Chu Tianyou naturally rejected Chu Tianze's idea of holding a reception banquet for him. And this time, Chu Tianze is bound to make up for him in a beautiful way, so that he can come back openly and dignified.
Guanguan slept after taking He Pingning's medicine the night before, and had a good night's sleep.
"Master, it seems that the medicine of Imperial Physician He has a good effect, and you look much better today. Yin Qiu has been worried about Guanguan's condition for the past two days, and he has hardly smiled, but at the moment, he is really happy to see that Guanguan is in a good state.
Guan Guan also felt that he was in good spirits, knowing that Yin Qiu had been worried and taking care of himself very hard in the past two days, so he gave her a grateful smile back.
"I boiled the medicine last night, but I didn't smell the medicine much, and the young lady didn't say it was bitter after drinking it, I thought that Dr. He was a quack, and he prescribed a prescription casually, but I didn't expect it to have this medicinal effect!" Liu Liu said curiously.
Guan Guan glanced at Liu Liu: "You, you love to speculate like this without evidence." You can just talk about these speculations in the house, but don't talk about them outside, lest you offend anyone. ”
"Okay Miss, I know. Liu Liu said coquettishly, "Come, I'll dress you up beautifully and go to the banquet." As he spoke, he put Guan Guan in front of the dressing table.
"Little Nizi, don't play haha, remember what I said. Although Guan Guan said this, he sat down in front of the desk in a compromise with Liu Liu, "Don't put too much thought into it, just don't be rude." ”
"Miss, how can you be willing to waste such a beautiful face and such a good temperament!" Liu Liu sighed deeply.
Guan Guan said with a smile: "Are you so boastful?" and then looked at Liu Liu with complaining eyes, "Alas, in our Liu Liu's heart, how unsightly her young lady usually is!"
Where could Liu Liu stand Guanguan's eyes and tone, pouted in defeat, and said with a smile: "Actually, you don't need it, Miss, you look good without powder, you can dress up casually and dominate the audience!"
Guan Guan didn't hold back and laughed.
Yin Qiu watched the two bickering and felt funny. On weekdays, he is calm and calm, and occasionally shows his coquettishness and liveliness in private, but this master is very good at hiding his edge.
This month's monthly banquet was held in advance, and the news that Guanguan received early in the morning was said to have been proposed by Chu Tianze, in order to discuss the matter of celebrating the merits of Chu Tianyou, the king of Ning, and receiving the wind.
After Guan Guan cleaned up himself, he went to Fang Rou's. When she arrived at Ling Xuezhai, the palace maid said that Fang Rou was resting inside.
"Sister, are you here?" Fang Rou's spirit looked better, but her body was still a little weak.
"Is my sister feeling better?" Guan Guan stepped forward and said worriedly.
Fang Rou patted Guan Guan's hand lightly and soothed: "Yesterday was not very good, but later a little later, a doctor came to prescribe a prescription, saying that it is also godly, a dose of medicine will go down, and it will be better today." ”
Guan Guan was also relieved when he heard it, it seemed that the Imperial Doctor He had come. I thought he would only open a prescription, but I didn't expect to be so attentive and come to Lingxuezhai in person. Guan Guan was full of gratitude to that Imperial Doctor He.
"Sister, I was lazy yesterday and didn't come to accompany you, you won't blame me!" Guan Guan said guiltily.
"Why, you took care of me all night the day before yesterday, and I was worried that I would be sick to you, but now I see that you are fine, and I am also relieved. Fang Rou said sincerely.
Liu Liu, who was on the side, really wanted Fang Rou to tell the truth, but Guan Guan reminded her in advance, and he didn't allow Fang Rou to say more about her illness, not even about the imperial doctor. Liu Liu was very uncomfortable in her heart.
Fang Rou noticed Liu Liu's abnormality and said with concern, "What's wrong with Liu Liu?"
Guan Guan glanced at Liu Liu and hurriedly glanced at him. Liu Liu pursed her lips, so she had to pretend to smile perfunctorily and said, "I'm fine." ”
Guan Guan was a little embarrassed, and the other party said softly: "Liu Liu is having a temper with me, it's okay." ”
Seeing that Fang Rou nodded, probably believing it, Guan Guan changed the topic: "Sister, your body is not yet well, today's monthly banquet ......"
"That's what I just received, and I'm worried about this. I'm afraid that my body won't last long, and I still won't spoil the atmosphere. It's just that I haven't gone to the Queen Mother to breathe a sigh yet, and I don't know if she will be unhappy. Fang Rou said worriedly.
Guan Guan thought for a moment and said comfortingly: "Sister, you just have to rest well and take care of your body." The Queen Mother, I'll try my best to explain. ”
"Will this cause you trouble?" Fang Rou was still a little worried.
"What my sister said, it's just a matter of the way, don't think about it. "Guanguan consoled.
Fang Rou thought about it, nodded, and said a little embarrassed: "Then it's troublesome for my sister." ”
Since coming out of Ling Xuezhai, Guanguan has nothing to say all the way. Liu Liu knew that Guan Guan was angry with him, and he was a little cramped, so he silently followed behind Guan Guan.
After walking for a while, the two still had no words, and the quiet atmosphere made Liu Liu feel very uncomfortable, and finally couldn't help it.
"Miss?" Liu Liu called tentatively.
Guan Guan, who was walking in front, was not really angry, he compromised when he heard Liu Liu's voice, stopped his steps, turned his head to look at her, and sighed: "Liu Liu, you ......"
Liu Liu knew what Guan Guan wanted to say, so he quickly admitted his mistake and explained: "Miss, I'm sorry...... I just think that you are sick because of taking care of Miss Fang, which is already aggrieved enough, and now you have to hide it from her for the sake of her love, blaming yourself for not taking care of her, and secretly helping her ask for a doctor without saying anything, it is too aggrieved. ”
Guan Guan also understood that Liu Liu was really good to her, and it was false to say that he was not moved, but he still had to make it clear to her: "Liu Liu, there are some things in this world that don't need to be calculated so much, who you really are good to is voluntary, and there is no need to let the other party know." For Sister Fang, I really like and treat each other sincerely. Although the people in this palace are complicated, and there are very few people who can really become friends, I still have the luxury. If there is only intrigue left in life, it will be too tiring. ”
Looking at the sadness revealed by her own young lady, Liu Liu was also very sad, and said in a low voice: "Miss, I know, I won't do this again next time." ”
Guan Guan didn't answer, and touched Liu Liu's head: "Let's go, it's too late, we'll be too late." ”
