The rumors in the palace were rampant and intensified.

Even Li Shuci smelled a trace of unusual smell in it, and as soon as he walked by, he could hear the palace maids and attendants gathering together and muttering, and when he saw someone coming, he hurriedly dispersed. "At first, it was just a few jokes, why did it only take a few days to spread like this?"

Xia Xing has become one of the few people who inquire, although he didn't dare to expose it too much, but the gossip is still quite well-informed: "I heard that Zhu Daguan has personally reprimanded him several times, and he has sent a few, but he has not subsided. This morning has reached the ears of the king, and the king has lost his temper and dismissed it as nonsense. specially called Wei Concubine to come over and give a lecture, and asked her to raise the Nine Emperors and the Fifteenth Princess well. ”

"Concubine Wei is frightened." Li Shuci could also think of Wei Concubine's virtue with his toes.

"But no, I've been crying with a sad face for the past few days, and I've been sick when I went back from Junshang, and I called the imperial doctor to ask for the pulse, saying that I was worried and thoughtful." Xia Xing was speechless: "However, if you say that she is scared and sick, I don't believe it." In this palace, she now occupies a concubine position, with the highest rank, which is not enough for her to show off. Today, I sued the noble people from the Queen Mother, which made the noble people not very good. ”

"I'm not worried about Wei Concubine, but I always feel that there is something else behind this rumor." Li Shuci was bored and entered the Bixin Palace, and his heart was always a little hairy, as if he hadn't thought of something.

The Bixin Palace is much more lively than before, and there are many palace maids and attendants. As soon as he saw Li Shuci, he immediately stepped forward to greet him. When Duan Min heard that she was coming, he happily stepped forward and grabbed her, "You are here, I am still talking about you, but I don't dare to look for you." Although Duan Min was treated by the king, the Queen Mother was still indifferent to her. As soon as the Queen Mother saw her, she could think of Princess Chi Yue, which was also something that could not be helped.

Li Shuci glanced at Mama Hua, who was standing silently on the side, and teased her: "Do you have anything good to tell me in a hurry?" Look at your pleasure. ”

"It's that the sixth brother is coming back, and I'm so happy in my heart. You don't know, since I was a child, I was most looking forward to the sixth brother coming to see me. When he comes, good things will happen. Duan Min pulled her to sit down, chattered, Li Shuci listened to her with a smile, suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, nodded and said, "Your tea is good." ”

Duan Min was a blessing in disguise because of the incident in Kangyang, but it made Emperor Xuwen feel a little pity and love for her, and he didn't forget to add anything to her. Duan Min also gradually revealed her lively and lovely nature, and when she saw that Li Shuci didn't answer her words, she shook her arm and pouted, "You are really." Can't you promise me a few words? ”

Li Shuci knew what Duan Min was happy about, not only the six princes were coming back, but the Jin Ting, who had long been in love with Duan Min, was said to be coming back. "You're smiling like this, so do you need me to add color to it?"

Duan Min suddenly held her face with both hands, stared at her with a pair of round apricot eyes, and said, "Ah Ci, I really like you, but it's a pity that you already have a marriage contract, otherwise if you can become my sister-in-law, no, it's my sixth sister-in-law, it would be fine." ”

Li Shuci was startled, and hurriedly slapped her claws away, "Nonsense." ”

Duan Min said seriously: "No nonsense, my sixth brother is good, no one else knows, if anyone becomes her imperial concubine, it is really a blessing that has been cultivated for several lifetimes." Of course, if anyone can marry you, it will be a blessing for several lifetimes. I just want to say that my sixth brother has suffered a lot, and I really hope that he can find a good girl and make a good marriage. ”

Li Shuci looked at her, not knowing how to explain the complexity to her, if the six princes are in power, it is better not to think too much about the couple, "Okay, you don't have to think about it, I see, you just want to find a sister-in-law who has a temper with you, and there are many people who spoil you!" ”

Duan Min grinned, as if he had never experienced the pain and filth of the past, as pure and beautiful as a baby in his heart. Li Shuci patted her, "Don't worry, we will definitely be able to achieve what we want in the future." ”

Mama Hua, who was standing behind the two of them, moved her eyes and showed a little warmth.

Even in winter, Da'an Palace is full of magnificent scenery. The white snow and red plums bloom all over, looking at it from a high place, it is more light and the sky is harmonious, and the jade Yu Qiong Building.

The eighth prince Jin Yu stood on the top of the Qinghua Palace Pavilion, but he didn't have the heart to enjoy the beautiful scenery in front of him, his whole face was almost screwed together, listening to the chatter of the noble people, crying non-stop, he couldn't help but smash the porcelain cups and saucers on the table in anger, and went out of the palace to the imperial garden, he is already twelve this year, he should understand a lot, and he should not know one or two, it is the age of desire to win. Unexpectedly, his foreign family was once broken, and even his mother concubine was no longer as noble as before, where could he, the so-called 'most favored' prince, be glorious!

"Why did the concubine start crying again today?" The Liang family said that it would fall, and there was no omen, Concubine Hua didn't do anything, she became a phoenix in the water, where can she stand the stimulation, it is a little abnormal at the moment, these days are sometimes good and sometimes bad.

Liu Li, the chamberlain who was beside him, saw that his face was not good, and hurriedly told him about the battle between the noble man and Wei Concubine two days ago, and said: "Today, the Queen Mother asked for peace, and Wei Concubine sued again, and the noble man was reprimanded by the Queen Mother, and he must not feel very good in his heart." Your Highness, don't blame the slave for talking too much, the noble man has been greatly stimulated, if you want to say it smallly, it is better to cure the nobleman's illness first, otherwise it will ......"

"You mean to say that it's my mother's fault that there was a conflict!" No matter how embarrassed the noble man is, in the end it is his biological mother.

"Ah...... Slaves don't dare! How could the slave think that it was the nobleman's fault......" Liu Li looked at the master's face carefully, sweating profusely: "The slave means that there are only two concubines in this palace, and the monarch is not a woman-oriented person, and the beauties who entered the palace in Daxia were all rewarded to the ministers. Concubine Hui fell with one move, the harem can't go on like this forever, no one can take charge of things, if Niangniang can get better, wouldn't it be the only one in this palace......"

Liu Li saw that he listened to it, so he continued: "His Royal Highness is the most favored prince of the king, and the nobles are naturally better than other concubines in the eyes of the monarch at the beginning. Noble, this is a heart disease! ”

"That's it! I know! "Jin Yu himself knows in his heart that if he doesn't cure the illness of the noble people, if he makes frequent mistakes, he will be affected even when the time comes." That old thing in the hospital is a bunch of rubbish! kept saying that the mother's illness could only be raised. Don't you know that this prince can be raised? ”

"Your Highness, the slave was in his hometown when he was a child, and he had seen similar diseases, why don't we go and find some folk remedies, maybe it works?"

Jin Yu stood up and frowned, "How dare you use things outside casually?" Let's think about another way. He paused, only to realize that he had unconsciously gone off, so he stopped, looked up, there seemed to be someone in front of him, he squinted, and pointed to the two figures in front of him, "Who is that?" How sneaky! ”

Liu Li looked at it, "The slave is looking at it, like the grass in the palace of the concubine and the apples beside Concubine Yi in the past." ”

"Wei Concubine?" Jin Yu remembered the few white marks on the faces of the noble people a few days ago, and couldn't help but say, "Follow up and take a look!" ”

Jin Yu approached quietly, but the two palace maids had already finished speaking, and each left in a different direction. dispelled the idea of listening, and thought that the pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses born to Concubine Yi were being raised by Concubine Wei at this time, so he said: "Zuo is just Concubine Yi who asked her to secretly take care of the ninth brother." Let's go back and leave it unbusy. ”

Liu Li saw that the palace maid returned to the palace of the concubine from a corner gate, but said on the side: "Your Highness, isn't she the palace maid beside the concubine?" Why did you go back to your palace and sneak in from the back corner door? ”

Jin Yu hesitated slightly, then followed forward in a few steps, half-pushed the corner door and looked in, and wondered: "Why doesn't there seem to be anyone in this palace?" Jin Yu was stunned for a moment, and leaned forward again, indeed there was no one guarding it, what did this concubine do in the palace during the day? When I thought about it, I became bolder. If you can catch the mistake of Concubine Wei, it can be regarded as revenge for the concubine.

He is not an adult prince yet, even if people see him in the palace of Wei Concubine, he will say that he will come to see the imperial brother, and no one will be able to say any gossip.

Seeing that Huan Cao looked around, tightly pinched his cuffs and entered the main room, Jin Yu felt more and more that something was wrong, and hurriedly took two steps forward to see what was going on. While thinking, he waved his hand to let Liu Li follow, and he quietly probed forward, but no one answered behind him, and when he looked back, Liu Li didn't follow at all. A bad feeling suddenly rose in his heart, and he turned around to pull the corner door.

The vermilion red like a corner gate seemed to be resisted outside, and at this time, it was like the gate of the Hades Palace, which was blocked in front of Jin Yu, and he lowered his voice and said urgently: "Liu Li! What's going on! Liu Li, you dog! Open the door. Liu Li! ”

At this moment, a terrible scream in the inner sanctum pierced the silence of the palace.

What happened? Jin Yu was stunned on the spot, and pressed his body tightly against the corner door, after all, he was still young, and his legs and feet were a little weak when he landed, and he couldn't stand up straight. He swallowed a few times in his throat, and then saw Huancao running out of the house, and shouted, "Oh no! Someone! Wei Concubine Niangniang...... Something happened to the mother! ”

Hula, I don't know where the people came from, there were voices in the east and west wings, and in the ear room, and the palace maids and maids all ran to the courtyard for a while, "What's wrong?" Hey? Eighth Prince, why are you here! ”

Jin Yu was just a child, and he was already stunned at this time, "I don't know anything!" I don't know anything! ”
