Chapter 580: Beauty Hurts the Body
The master and servant went out and found that Mama Wei had also changed into a dark green fitted palace dress and was standing by the carriage waiting, and when they saw Rong Xi coming out, they hurriedly saluted, and came over to help Rong Xi get into the carriage with Xiao'er.
The carriage drove steadily and quickly, and soon arrived at the gate of the palace, and after layers of checks, it was finally considered to be in the palace of Wei Guifei.
As soon as Mama Liu, the manager, saw Rong Xi arrive, and saw Mama Wei coming with her, a little smile suddenly appeared on her face, and she walked over quickly and saluted: "The old slave has seen the princess." β
"That's it," Rong Xi nodded, "What about the concubine?" β
"Back to the princess, the mother is inside, and she is preparing to eat snacks, which are all the princess's favorite food." Mama Liu hurriedly said, and as she spoke, she led Rong Xi inside.
Rong Xi smiled and said, "The concubine has a heart." β
When the group arrived inside, Wei Guifei was really arranging a small plate of food by herself, and when she saw Rong Xi, the smile on her face suddenly bloomed like a flower, "Rong Xi, come on, how about seeing these?" I guess you're almost up to the time, it's all freshly made in the kitchen, and it's still hot, come and try it. β
With a smile on her face, Rong Xi walked to the table, saluted, and said, "The mother concubine has worked hard, how dare the daughter-in-law take care of it?" β
"Alas, you child," Wei Guifei sighed, her eyes turned red, and when she saw it, Mama Liu, who was in charge, immediately waved her hand at the other palace maids, and the others withdrew.
"The matter of the clothes...... Wei Guifei didn't hide it, after these two things, she also understood that it was better to talk to Rong Xi about the twists and turns, "It's better to talk to Rong Xi openly, "After all, it's the mother concubine who can't stand you." β
As soon as her words fell, Mama Liu knelt on the ground with a "plop", kowtowed and said: "Princess, the poison on the clothes Niangniang really doesn't know, Niangniang also specially instructed the old slave to send it in person, refusing to borrow the hands of others, but the old slave is stupid, and he is careful to follow the way of others, and asks the princess to punish him, and the old slave must not have a word of complaint." β
Mama Wei was stunned when she heard it, and she was cold, she naturally knew about Mama Liu's delivery of clothes, but she didn't know what kind of poison the clothes were, and now she suddenly heard it, and she couldn't help but feel a little overwhelmed.
Rong Xi glanced at her and said, "What are you doing in a daze?" Why don't you help Mama Liu up? β
"Yes, yes." Mama Wei came back to her senses and hurriedly stretched out her hand to help.
Mama Liu hesitated and refused to get up, she didn't know what Rong Xi meant, and so far, she hadn't heard Rong Xi say a word about this matter.
"The daughter-in-law has already heard the prince say that the poison on the clothes is not about the mother's concubine, in fact, she was planning to wait until Dabi to explain it to the mother, presumably the prince is here, and there is a lot of offense, and I hope the mother will not blame the prince." Rong Xi's voice was light and calm, without any ups and downs, which formed a huge contrast with Wei Guifei's excitement and Mama Liu's panic.
Wei Guifei's eyes lit up slightly, and she pressed the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief and said, "Where did Xi'er say that?" The mother concubine looked at Xiu'er's expression, she was really nervous about you, seeing that you have a deep relationship, the mother concubine is not happy for you, where is the reason to blame? What's more, this kind of thing will make anyone anxious, let alone Xiu'er's hot-blooded temperament. Besides, whether it was anyone's fault or not, it was always ...... Fortunately, you are smart, if it really hurts you, how can the mother concubine be good? β
Wei Guifei said sincerely, Rong Xi breathed a sigh of relief, but she didn't say anything more, she just secretly felt sad in her heart, Wei Guifei and Leng Yixiu, the mother-son relationship between the two of them, I'm afraid it can't be deep anymore, if Leng Yixiu is really treated as a son, then how can there be this today? I won't stand here and listen to her say these words that contain "full" feelings.
Rong Xi didn't want to continue on this topic, she picked up her chopsticks, pointed to a piece of osmanthus nectar puff pastry cake on the plate and said, "This looks good?" Can you try it? β
Wei Guifei hurriedly smiled and said, "Taste it, quickly, how about it taste?" β
Rong Xi took a piece, put it to his mouth and took a bite, "Well, it's really good, it's sweet and delicious." β
Wei Guifei was also very happy to see her praise, "If you like to eat, it's good, and if you like it for a while, you can bring some back." β
Rong Xi nodded, "Thank you, Concubine." β
At this time, Mama Liu reminded in a low voice: "Niangniang, it's time to drink medicine." β
"Okay, let's bring it up," Wei Guifei said.
Mama Liu turned around and walked out of the house, Rong Xi's eyes flashed slightly, and she turned her head and asked Wei Guifei, "Mother, can Rong Xi ask, why do you drink medicine often?" But is there anything wrong with your body? β
Wei Guifei smiled shallowly, lowered her eyes slightly and said, "It's not that there is any big discomfort, it's just that sometimes I don't sleep well, I heard that ...... This recipe can calm the nerves, so I boiled it and drank it, and the effect was really good. I kept drinking. β
"Mother, it is a three-point poison, no matter how good the medicine is, it cannot be drunk for a long time." Rong Xi looked at Wei Guifei's face, looked at her expression in her eyes, and her crystal like jade skin, although she said that she was old, but this skin was completely like a girl who was so tender that she could pinch out the water, if she said that she was a concubine and well-maintained, this would make sense, but it was so good that this kind of Cheng dΓΉ seemed to make people feel a little unbelievable.
When Wei Guifei heard Rong Xi's words, she thought that she was concerned about her safety, and gave her a reassuring smile and said, "What the concubine knows, it's just ...... At some ages, if you always don't sleep well, you will inevitably look haggard, and you will have no energy during the day, if your father is here, if you don't serve well, it will be a sin. β
Although she said it cryptically and implicitly, Rong Xi also understood what she meant, it was nothing more than being afraid of old age and decay, and love would be late due to decay, she just wanted to keep the emperor's affection, keep her wealth and glory, and keep her status in the harem.
Rong Xi was thinking about it, Mama Liu had already come in with the medicine, Rong Xi raised her nose, and sure enough, there was a faint sour smell wafting in the air.
Wei Guifei took the medicine bowl, the dark brown medicine liquid shook slightly in the jade jade bowl, reflecting her flower-like face, the bowl was slowly handed to her lips, and her delicate lips were about to touch the bowl.
"Wait!" Rong Xi suddenly spoke.
Wei Guifei was startled by her, her hand shook slightly, and the liquid medicine almost spilled, she turned her head and looked at Rong Xi suspiciously, "What's wrong?" β
"Mother," Rong Xi sighed, she finally decided to say that it was not for Wei Guifei, but for Leng Yixiu.
Rong Xi slowly stood up and walked to Wei Guifei's side, she reached out and took the bowl from Wei Guifei's hand, put it under the tip of her nose and sniffed it.
The faint sourness became clearer. Sure enough, it was the smell of the thing he got, and it was also what Li Haijiang said came from the secretion of that deep-sea plant.
"Xi'er? What happened to you? Wei Guifei also stood up involuntarily, she looked at Rong Xi's expression, and suddenly felt a little nervous in her heart.
She couldn't help but be nervous, this medicine, she had been drinking it for not the first day, how long it had been, she couldn't remember for a while.
Mama Liu's face also turned white inch by inch, and she didn't care about humility for a while, staring at Rong Xi without blinking, for fear that she would say something else as soon as she opened her mouth.
"Mother," Rong Xi put down the medicine bowl and turned his head to look at Wei Guifei, her eyes were clear, but they were as deep as the sea, without a trace of waves, such a look made Wei Guifei's heart panic.
"You can't drink this medicine anymore." Rong Xi sighed lowly, "There is something in this medicine, if a woman drinks it, it can make the skin crystal like jade, getting better and better, and there is anti-aging growth, which is really a rare beauty and beauty thing." Just ......"
When Wei Guifei heard her say this, her face couldn't help but blush slightly, and she inadvertently raised her hand and touched her face, looking at her expression and movements, Rong Xi knew that her judgment was good, and she really relied on this thing to beautify her face.
"Just what?" Hearing her words, Wei Guifei's face changed slightly.
"It's just that this thing is more harmful than good to a woman, although it can be beautiful, but it hurts the woman's body very much, making the qi and blood weak, until it ...... Killed. β
"Ahh When Mama Liu heard the last two words, she couldn't help but scream, covered her mouth with her hand, and then stared at Wei Guifei, tears suddenly overflowed in her eyes, "Niangniang, this ......"
Wei Guifei's face was not much better, her body was weak, she sat on the chair, her eyes looked blankly at the void, she shook her head and said, "No...... No...... This is not true. β
Rong Xi didn't say much, she knew that Concubine Wei was in a mess at the moment, she needed time to calm down, and she needed to think about it.
The room was quiet, and the breathing of several people could be heard clearly, Wei Guifei's face became pale, her lips trembled slightly, and the hand in her wide sleeve was tightly held and slowly released, like this.
"Mother Concubine," after a long time, Rong Xi saw that she seemed to be calmer, and slowly spoke: "This recipe, did you get it from Princess Qi?" β
Wei Guifei's eyes were cold and sharp, and the other expressions on her face had long been gone, the corners of her lips were slightly raised, and she nodded: "Exactly." β
Rong Xi narrowed her eyes slightly, she had to admit that Wei Guifei's love was recovered quickly, and her ability to suppress the feelings in her heart was indeed not something that ordinary people could do lightly.
has been up and down in this harem for many years, and step by step in conspiracy and calculation, he has reached such a position where he is now, and he has forced people's hearts to the extreme.
"But why did she do that?" Mama Liu couldn't help wiping her tears and said, "Niangniang has no grudge against her, let alone ...... The old slave heard that she also drank this medicine herself. β
