Chapter 18: What Should I Do?

Wan Xin's big eyes blinked, and she went away with a smoke. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Wanxin's temperament is dexterous, and the popularity is good, and after a while, he inquired clearly and came back, saying that yesterday the emperor invited King Jing to enter the palace to play chess, and a game of chess was not finished, and Yu Guiren was unwell and invited the emperor to go to Yuxiu Palace, because the chess was not finished, and the emperor left King Jing to live in the palace, and he wanted to continue to play today.

It turned out to be King Jing.

Qingling was still in the boudoir, and I heard that King Jing was free and uninhibited, an idle prince who was proficient in music, rhythm and poetry, and was also a handsome husband who was admired by his daughter in the imperial capital.

She sneered in her heart, if it weren't for her father's humble official position, presumably her stepmother Wang would not have let go of the Jingwang Mansion with such a reputation, let alone be willing to let Qing Mo marry her to the Shilang Mansion for her. How can a three-grade squire compare to the hereditary royal marquis.

"Wanxin, breakfast is still there, go eat it." Qingling pointed to the food on the table.

Suddenly, my stomach churned, and I vomited incessantly, and finally even jaundice vomited.

"Sister, what did you eat in the morning? But you ate the wrong thing and broke your stomach? Wan Xin stared at the millet porridge on the table, "It's just a small bowl of rice porridge, there shouldn't be a problem." ”

Breakfast was sent by a little eunuch with an eye, Qingling saw that it was the same millet porridge nest as yesterday morning, so he ate it, could it be that there was a problem with the rice porridge?

"Wanxin, it's okay, your share is still there, go find a doctor girl to come and have a look," Qingling's face turned pale and struggled to say, "Wan Xin, take the bracelet that the queen mother rewarded in front of you, go to the hospital to find the doctor girl, go quickly!" ”

Wanxin hurriedly walked out of the side hall of the Buddha Hall, trotted out of Renshou Palace, and met the emperor who came to greet the queen mother.

The emperor walked over with a cold face, swept Wan Xin with a cold gaze, turned around and asked, "I remember that you are the palace maid in Renshou Palace, what's wrong with you in a hurry?" ”

"Back to the emperor's words, slave maid... Slave maid..."Wan Xin thought of something, and didn't know whether to tell the truth or not, and there were already beads of sweat on her forehead under the emperor's cold and arrogant gaze.

Gui Yu bent down and asked gently, "The emperor asked you something, according to the truth." ”

"Yes. The slave maid returned to the emperor, the palace maid Qingling of Renshou Palace vomited after taking a mouthful of rice porridge, and the slave and maid were in a hurry to ask for a doctor, so they walked in a hurry, and blocked the emperor's holy drive in a panic, asking the emperor to atone for his sins! Wan Xin gritted her teeth and told the truth.

Cold air gushed out from the emperor's eyes, Wan Xin didn't dare to look at it anymore, hurriedly lowered his head, and let the cold sweat on his head drip on the ground.

"Your Majesty, vomiting doesn't stop, it's not a big deal, then go to the hospital and find a doctor girl to take a look, but the palace maid in Renshou Palace said something else, and the slave knew that the medicine girl Hua Yang's medical skills were quite passable, so it was better to ......" Gui Yu bent down towards the emperor and asked for his life.

"What's your name?" The emperor asked coldly.

"Back to the emperor, slave Jiang Wanxin."

"Since you are the palace maid in the mother's harem, you should go to the hospital Hua Yang to see the disease." The emperor dropped a sentence and walked towards Renshou Palace.

"Yes, the slave and maid thanked the emperor!" Wanxin's eyes rolled and a teardrop slipped out of her eyes, sure enough, the emperor values his own young lady, the young lady is both talented and beautiful, and she should have won the favor of the emperor a long time ago, but who knows that after several hardships, she almost died, and the hard life of the young lady should come to an end. She got up and quickened her steps and ran towards the infirmary.

The emperor took a few steps forward, turned to look at the palace maid Wanxin who was running away and gradually moving away, and the coldness between his eyebrows struck.

In the medical hall, the medical girl Hua Yang was originally a little-known little person, and no one looked for her on weekdays, she went to Renshou Palace, and did not attract anyone's attention, only said that she had a bad stomach, and it was fine, and she would be fine after taking medicine for a few days.

In the evening, Hua Yang's family quietly entered the Qianqing Palace, knelt at the emperor's feet and carefully reviewed Qingling's condition, "Your Majesty, the palace maid Qingling has eaten for half a summer by mistake. Taking a small amount of Banxia can numb the mouth and tongue, and a large amount will cause burning and swelling, inability to make a sound, salivation, and vomiting. In particular, eating on an empty stomach causes numbness, sluggish and irregular breathing, cramps, difficulty breathing, and finally paralysis and death. Fortunately, the palace maid Qingling had an upset stomach the night before, and she only took a few mouthfuls of breakfast, and the amount of Banxia was not enough to eat by mistake, otherwise it would be difficult to save Hua Tuo's life if she was reincarnated. ”

The medical girl Hua Yang quietly withdrew, retreated from the palace people who served left and right, and Gui Yu followed the emperor to the dormitory of the Qianqing Palace.

"Gui Yu, I almost killed her last time. I thought that without grace she would be safe and sound, I deliberately stayed away from her, ignored her, who knew that there were still people who deliberately wanted to harm her, I ......" The emperor clenched his fists with anger, and his bones gurgled.

"Your Majesty, I think of the events of the year again, the deceased has passed away, the emperor can't hurt his body because of this......" Gui Yu bowed his body, with a sadness in his voice that could not be concealed.

"The whole world is mine, but I can't protect a woman, I want to protect her, I want her to live, but what should I do?" The emperor raised his head, and the bright candle flame made him squint his eyes, and tears seemed to flicker in his eyes.

"Your Majesty, since the death of the queen, there are few confidants around the emperor, but she is just a palace maid, and in this harem, everyone can handle her." Gui Yu squeezed his eyes and choked up to convince him.

"That's why I don't worry about her, and I can only feel at ease when I see her safe and sound every day. But now there are still people who can't get along with her, Gui Yu, take me to see her. The corners of the emperor's mouth twitched violently, he had endured it for a long time, and he didn't want to endure it anymore.

Gui Yu knelt down and grabbed the emperor's clothes, "The person the emperor likes is at ease when he is in front of his own eyes, but the old slave risked his life to persuade the emperor, you can't go now, otherwise the emperor's hard work will be ruined, the emperor, you have to be patient for a while." ”

"Okay, Gui Yu, let Hua Yang pay close attention to her diet, and don't make any more mistakes." The emperor closed his eyes, took a deep breath, opened his eyes, his face returned to his previous coldness, and his eyes flashed with cold arrogance.

One night a few days later, after Mama Ji slept after serving the Queen Mother, she quietly went out of Renshou Palace, and in a secluded place, she met Gui Yu's father-in-law beside the emperor.

"Mama Ji, you and I entered the palace in the same year, the old slave remembers that we are still Xuzhou villagers."

"Grandpa Gui, isn't it? When you entered the palace, the slave maid was twelve, and you were only fifteen. ”

"More than 20 years have passed in the blink of an eye, and you and I have been in this palace for a lifetime. Yesterday, the emperor promoted your mother's nephew to be the commander of the guards, congratulations, old slave! I heard the emperor say, how many offspring are there in your mother's family! ”

"Slave and maid, thank the emperor for Longen!"

"It's a pity that the old slave is an orphan, and he has only been on an errand for the emperor wholeheartedly in the palace all his life, unlike Mama Ji, there is a large family at home, but I can't plan for them!"

"Thanks to the Empress Dowager, the old slave should do his best. The emperor means ......"

"The emperor's thoughts, can he hide it from others, but can he hide it from Mama Ji?"

After the two exchanged pleasantries, they dispersed, which was a common thing in the palace.

On this day, the emperor went to Renshou Palace. In the courtyard, there was a stray of red pomegranates in full bloom, wilting and drooping their heads under the scorching sun.

The emperor came diligently every day, and Quan Youde, the chief eunuch of Renshou Palace, had already knelt down to greet him with a few palace people with faces.

In the scorching summer, the high temperature was unbearable, the emperor's face was cold, and his cold gaze moved from Quan Youde's face to the pomegranate flower, and then from the pomegranate flower to Quan Youde's face.

Quan Youde was so frightened that he couldn't stop shaking, the emperor came up on weekdays, and he didn't pay attention to these flowers and plants, what's wrong with him today, didn't he find him when he saw the flowers?

Anyway, people are emperors, but you can't just serve the slaves who have served in Renshou Palace for most of their lives for a few flowers, so how about it, and the people suddenly knelt on the ground and trembled and said: "The emperor is angry, let the slaves return, the pomegranate flowers that the queen mother likes were only brought from the flower room early this morning, but the scorching sun is scorching, the flowers are delicate, and they can't stand the sun, so they are a little wilted." ”

The emperor still had a cold face, and reprimanded: "The queen mother's body has always been weak, you slaves dare to take advantage of loopholes and be lazy, and even this queen mother's lovely flowers dare not care about it." Since the flowers are all drying under the sun, you minions should accompany you. ”

As soon as the emperor's words were brushed, Quan Youde's body had already shaken into a sieve, just this day, he didn't want to dry for a second, and he was drying with the flowers, didn't he want his old life? Beads of sweat and tears fell, grinning and begging for mercy: "The emperor is gracious, the slave knows that he is wrong, and the slave will never dare again!" ”

The emperor ignored him, snorted coldly, and entered the main hall.

There are two worlds in the main hall and outside, five or six pots of ice are placed in the hall, and several palace ladies are holding fans and slowly fanning. On the table carved from purple nan wood, there is a bottle of half-opened foxtail lily, and the room is filled with a fresh air with a floral fragrance, which is exceptionally cool and comfortable, and the fragrance is pleasant.

"I'm here to say hello to the Queen Mother." Seeing the Queen Mother, the emperor showed a kind and easy-going smile on his face, so that the Queen Mother had a momentary loss of consciousness without a cold face, since he died of illness at the age of eight, she was almost used to the emperor's cold face.

"Rui'er, you're here!" The queen mother propped up her body lying on the soft couch and called the emperor affectionately, yes, the relationship with the emperor has been very harmonious recently, and she involuntarily called the emperor's name.

Mama Ji, who was waiting on the side, waved her hand, and the palace ladies in the palace retreated silently.

"Queen Mother, your body and bones are better, I haven't heard you cough in the past few days, but the imperial doctor has changed the prescription, right for the queen mother's illness?" The emperor sat on a chair carved from purple nan wood and covered with a soft mat closest to the queen mother, and asked gently.

"It's okay to mourn the family's illness, but the weather is hot these days, the emperor has to pay more attention to recuperation, the things of the previous dynasty are complicated, everything has to be decided by you, no wonder you are irritable. What are you angry with the minions in the yard, you don't have to hurt the dragon body for these eyes that don't have long eyes. The queen mother looked at the emperor she raised lovingly, although the emperor was a little irritable about the slaves, but she was very happy in her heart, and felt the emperor's filial piety to her from these little things.

"The lesson of the queen mother is that the queen mother has worried about me all her life, and now she can live for a long time, but these slaves are slacking off because of the queen mother's love, can I not be angry?" The emperor's eyebrows were covered with a layer of coldness.

"Emperor, the mourning family is nothing here, you don't have to see the sky to talk to the mourning family, but the concubines go to the palace more, the mourning family is now old, and there is only one emperor grandson, the mourning family hopes that the emperor can be wet with rain and dew, spread branches and leaves for the royal family, and reproduce the blood of the ancestors." The Queen Mother had a motherly heart, and he said this to the emperor once a day.
