318: Woe to you
"Ma'am."
Du Ruo's soft voice came from behind him, disturbing Xia Ruan, who was reading.
The trees in the courtyard had long since withered and yellowed, and Xia Ruan sat on a soft chair under the trees, looking at the depression around her.
Winter is coming.
Du Ruo couldn't see Xia Ruan's expression, so he could only continue, "Master Hou sent a lot of medicinal materials into the palace, saying that they were for Concubine An Gui's mother, but it was just ......."
Xia Ruan put down the book in his hand, but still didn't turn his head: "Just what?" ”
"Concubine An said that there were too many medicinal materials, and she couldn't use them up alone. Moreover, it also takes up space on her side. Du Ruo said lightly, "So Concubine An accepted some of them, and some of them were brought back by the slaves." Madam, what do you do with these medicinal herbs? ”
Speaking of this, Du Ruo paused.
Her expression became a little embarrassed, and she quietly raised her head to look at Xia Ruan, and saw that Xia Ruan was not abnormal, so she continued, "Ai Ye also sent some silver into the palace. ”
At this time, a gust of autumn wind blew, and the yellow leaves on the trees fell, and they happened to land on the book that Xia Ruan was resting on the side.
Then, Xia Ruan turned his head sideways and smiled: "The medicinal materials returned by Concubine An Gui Niang, if I can use them, I will use them, and if I can't use them, I will send them to the doctor." Put the money where you want it first, and I'll let you get it when it's time to use it. ”
"Yes." Du Ruo slowly breathed a sigh of relief and took the order.
At this time, the sky was a little gray, Xia Ruan inadvertently put his hand on his lower abdomen, and then showed a faint smile.
She knew that there were some things that couldn't be hidden from Xiao Jiu.
This man is too smart.
Even if you know. but to pretend to be confused and cooperate with her.
If you can't hide it, you can't hide it, in fact, it's okay, there shouldn't be too much concealment between husband and wife. She was just afraid that Xiao Jiu would worry, but fortunately, this person's actions were very calm now, and he just sent some medicinal herbs in.
When Concubine An Guifei was collecting medicinal materials, she was naturally a little surprised why Xiao Jiu would send so many medicinal materials in. It took Concubine An a long time to understand that some of these medicinal materials might have been really given to her, and some were given to Xia Ruan and Concubine Xun.
During this time, Xia Ruan's face was too pale, and people with a clear eye could see it. It can be seen that Xia Ruan's body is weak.
Thereupon. An Guifei accepted everything on the surface, but actually withdrew some of it.
Quitting these, Xia Ruan took them back politely, and kept some for himself. Some let the imperial doctor be given to Concubine Muddy for use.
I want to get medicine from the hospital. Everything that is precious. will be documented.
This is also why, the Imperial Doctor Association secretly took some medicinal materials to Concubine Xun in private, so that the people in the Imperial Hospital thought that the medicinal materials were lost.
Xia Ruan wants to hide the fact that she is pregnant. You have to be careful.
Everything in this palace seems to be calm, but in fact, there is an undercurrent on it.
In two days, she will give the Queen Mother an answer.
Xia Ruan knew that the Queen Mother might not be able to get the answers she wanted from her, because there were some things she had already done.
Xia Ruan didn't think about it for too long, when he saw Du Lan hurriedly walk in: "Madam, it's not good...... Zeng Guifei she...... She went to Cining Palace. ”
"What if she went to Cining Palace?" Xia Ruan stood up from the soft chair, and Duran hurriedly supported Xia Ruan, "She should go too." ”
Du Lan didn't understand the meaning of Xia Ruan's words, but continued: "Just now, the slave maid met the people from the Tai Hospital, and many of them hurried to Cining Palace. As soon as the slave maid saw it, Concubine An Guifei also left, and it seemed that they all went to Cining Palace. ”
Xia Ruan exhaled slowly and looked at Du Lan: "Don't worry, these things have nothing to do with us." ”
Seeing Xia Ruan say this, Du Lan still frowned.
Last night, Concubine Zeng had been outside trying to meet Xia Ruan, but Xia Ruan kept saying that she was sick and didn't want to see her. In the end, Zeng Guifei made a big noise outside the palace, and Zeng Guifei's words were as ugly as they were. Xia Ruan sat in the room and didn't say a word, just holding the book and not speaking.
It's just that Duran also noticed that not a single page of the book in Xia Ruan's hand has been turned.
Zeng Guifei was probably tired of scolding in the end, so An Guifei came forward to let Zeng Guifei go back.
It is said that on the way back to the dormitory, Concubine Zeng met Concubine Hui again.
Concubine Zeng used to be a high-ranking person, and the eldest prince was about to become the crown prince, so he stepped in with a concubine and the sixth prince halfway. Concubine Zeng naturally hated Concubine Hui.
Concubine Hui is obviously no exception, when she looks at Concubine Zeng, her eyes are also quite weird.
So the two enemies were very red when they met, and the reality was sarcastic to each other. In the end, Concubine Hui didn't know what to say, and the angry Concubine Zeng Guifei picked up the hairpin and poked at Concubine Hui, although she didn't hurt Concubine Hui in the end. However, Concubine Hui was also frightened and fainted......
In the end, this incident alarmed the emperor who was with the Queen Mother in Cining Palace.
Although the emperor was furious, he only asked Zeng Guifei to apologize to Concubine Hui, and finally reprimanded Zeng Guifei fiercely and comforted Concubine Hui for a while.
Strangely, the emperor did not put Concubine Zeng under house arrest.
Today, Concubine Zeng went to Cining Palace to cry in front of the Queen Mother, but she didn't know what she said, but the angry Queen Mother suddenly vomited blood.
The people in the Tai Hospital were in a hurry, so they hurried towards Cining Palace.
"We're going back soon." Xia Ruan looked at everything in the courtyard and felt that the strangeness made her feel uncomfortable, "I didn't take Concubine Zeng's words to heart last night, and you don't have to take them to heart." ”
Du Lan pursed his lips: "How can you not take it to heart, even if she is a noble concubine, she shouldn't say this about you, Madame." Moreover, her words are simply unbearable. ”
Regarding Du Lan's words, Xia Ruan could only smile helplessly.
Zeng Guifei is also forced to be anxious now.
As long as people are in a hurry, all wisdom will be left behind in an instant, and they will act impulsively.
Obviously, Zeng Guifei is like this now.
All the pressure was on Zeng Guifei.
But everything, it's all because of the Zhang family-
Zhang Yuelang, the young master of the Zhang family, forced Xiao Jiu's sister Xiao Yixue to marry, still as a concubine. Nan Xiao's people can't resist. Xiao Jiu wanted to stop it, but Xiao Yixue forced her to die, if Xiao Jiu intervened, she would die in front of Xiao Jiu. Xiao Yixue did this, not because she really liked the young master of the Zhang family, she wanted to sacrifice her happiness in exchange for the stability of her mother and younger siblings.
But such a good girl was driven crazy by the people of the Zhang family.
The Zhang family relied on the Yang family in Beijing.
Yang Ge Lao's only son, Yang Han, married Zeng Guifei's sister-in-law, so he was in the capital. The Yang family is also lawless.
Especially in the years when the eldest prince was in power. What Yang Han did made people feel angry and terrifying.
After Xiao Jiu dealt with the Zhang family, he dealt with the Yang family...... If you want the Yang family to be completely uprooted, then you must also get rid of the Zeng family.
But get rid of the Zeng family. It's not that simple.
This. Xiao Jiu made a good choice.
Because of getting rid of the Zeng family. He didn't have to do it himself at all, he just needed to fan the flames and spread some rumors. At that time, the suspicion was very serious, and the emperor was very sick. Because he wants to get rid of the eldest prince, he will behead the Zeng family.
Xiao Jiu doesn't have to waste a single soldier, let alone stand in a conspicuous place.
Zhang's family, Yang's family, Zeng's family...... It's gone.
Xia Ruan didn't know why, and remembered the princess of Qingnan who loved Mo Yan......
Princess Qingnan did not die in this catastrophe, but she ...... in the coming day Xia Ruan thought about Princess Qingnan, and felt that it was too difficult for a woman to decide her future.
"You don't need to be angry with those who don't deserve your attention, the last thing in this world is the mouth of outsiders." Xia Ruan told Duran what was in his heart, "Just remember this. ”
Duran nodded: "The slave knows." ”
……
Inside the Cining Palace.
Concubine Zeng knelt outside Cining Palace with her hair disheveled, without saying a word.
"Concubine An Gui Niang arrived, Concubine Hui drove to ......"
The little eunuch's voice sounded, and Zeng Guifei's originally numb expression was a little more throbbing.
She turned her eyes to look at the people walking towards her, and they were two faces that she was familiar with and could not be more familiar.
"Isn't this Sister Zeng Guifei?" Although Concubine Hui's face was a little pale, "The emperor loves my sister so much, but what my sister did today really broke the emperor's heart." ”
Zeng Guifei smiled coldly, and then looked at Concubine Hui with hatred: "Slut, if you hadn't provoked it, how could this palace do these things." ”
Concubine Hui smiled in surprise, then took a step back, pretending to be pitiful.
"Sister Zeng Guifei, this thing can be eaten indiscriminately, and it is impossible to talk nonsense." Concubine Hui smiled innocently, and the whole person seemed to be the cleanest existence, "If my sister doesn't like my sister, I don't have to frame my sister like this." ”
Zeng Guifei gritted her teeth angrily.
However, she was indeed irritated by Concubine Hui's words, and this matter was in front of her.
An Guifei didn't speak, just glanced at Zeng Guifei, and then at the smiling hypocritical Concubine Hui, and walked towards the hall.
At this time, Emperor Jianguang looked sad.
"Your Majesty, the concubine is late." Concubine An Guifei looked at the tea cup that fell off the ground, and said to the little eunuch beside Emperor Jianguang, "Go and change the cup of Longjing before the rain, don't be too hot." ”
The little eunuch hurried back as if he had been pardoned.
Emperor Jianguang raised his head slightly at this time: "You are here." ”
"The concubine is here." Concubine An Guifei obediently walked to Emperor Jianguang's side, "The Queen Mother will definitely get better, your Majesty, don't worry." ”
Emperor Jianguang was silent, and Concubine Hui couldn't help but laugh in her heart when she saw Concubine An's appearance.
At this time, Concubine An said these words, obviously deceiving the emperor.
After all, the Queen Mother is already old, and with Zeng Guifei's words, it is difficult not to be angry to death.
And Concubine Zeng was supposed to be under house arrest, but today she can appear here with the Queen Mother, and the person to blame is the emperor himself after all.
This is an order from the emperor himself.
Concubine Hui pretended to be aggrieved, and also approached a little: "Your Majesty, you pay attention to your body, the concubines are very worried about you." ”
Emperor Jianguang raised his head and looked at Concubine Hui's appearance as if he was smiling. (To be continued......)
