Chapter 117: Promoted to the Throne of Concubine

On the second day, Imperial Doctor Lin did not come as promised, and the cuttlefish waited for him for a long time in Xianfu Palace, but he never saw him, so he had to send Shungui to the Tai Hospital to find a lie down to see what this Lin Jianren was going to do.

After Shungui came back, not only did he not bring Imperial Doctor Lin over, but he also said a surprising news.

Lin Jianren is dead.

Shungui went to the Tai Hospital to investigate, and learned that Taiyi Lin couldn't sleep after returning home last night, and he never woke up in bed, so he died inexplicably, seemingly because he drank too much wine.

The cuttlefish couldn't believe it, "Drinking? Could it be that he is using alcohol to kill his sorrows? But a doctor went to his house to check and see what the reason was that a big living person would be gone if he said no. ”

Shungui was a little embarrassed, shook his head and replied, "No, their family has transported his body back to his hometown overnight, and there is no way to investigate the cause of his death, besides, he has always been unpopular, and not many people will care about his life or death. ”

The cuttlefish was shocked and stunned, sat on the chair with a butt, stared at a pair of big apricot eyes and couldn't speak anymore, she thought that with Imperial Doctor Lin testifying for her, she would have the opportunity to seek justice for herself, but she just had a little hope, and she was poured a basin of cold water again and was hit back.

Imperial Physician Lin was the only witness she could find, if he died, who else could she go to? I'm afraid this clue will be broken from now on.

The cuttlefish slammed the table in frustration, scolding while beating, "Lin Jianren is really a straw bag, he can even drink a wine to kill him, what else can he do!" I've wasted all my efforts! ”

Shungui went over and put a cloth cushion under her hand and comforted, "Master, don't be angry, don't be angry with your body, this Imperial Doctor Lin is very strange, think about it." He is doing things for Concubine Xi, how can he easily agree to your request? Now that he is dying so unclear, this is not a simple matter. ”

His words alerted the cuttlefish, who narrowed its eyes in confusion. The hatred in his eyes was surging like waves, perhaps, Imperial Physician Lin really died, or perhaps, this was planned by Concubine Xi again......

At lunchtime. The emperor is here, these **** often come to Xianfu Palace for lunch, nothing more than to accompany the cuttlefish, the cuttlefish is in a bad mood, and the emperor rarely chats with her, often sitting opposite but without any words.

The emperor sat at the table, and several palace people behind him put the food on the table, these dishes were made in the imperial dining room, which was better than the small dining room of Xianfu Palace, and the cuttlefish glanced at it. Snorted softly and didn't walk over.

"Why, humming for no reason, I see that you are getting bolder and bolder, and you don't even squeak when you see me." The emperor picked up the chopsticks and deliberately knocked them on the table, "If you don't come again, I will eat alone." ”

Only then did the cuttlefish come over slowly, and muttered, "Didn't you let the concubine exempt from this salute during this time." Why complain again, duplicity! ”

The emperor was choked up, shook his head helplessly, and had no intention of arguing with her on the lip service.

The cuttlefish did it next to the emperor. Looking at the table full of dishes, he rolled his eyes, "Are you embarrassed to ask the concubine what is it?" Then tell me, what do you mean by bringing your own food today, you have served so many things from the Heart Cultivation Palace, but you don't think the things in the Xianfu Palace are not delicious. If you dislike it, don't come in the future. ”

With that, she picked up the spoon and filled a bowl of soup and drank it with a gulp.

The emperor looked at her and pursed his lips, "You don't have to be cheap and sell well, and you can have this treatment in the whole palace." Don't just drink soup, you can't eat anything else when you're full, this time I specially brought you a fish shoot soup, you can taste it. ”

In front of the cuttlefish, there is a large bowl of milky white soup, which has large pieces of fish meat and bamboo shoots, which smells very fragrant and looks very nutritious.

She scooped a big spoonful into the bowl and ate it by herself, not noticing that the emperor had been staring at her, and for a while, when she was almost done, the emperor suddenly opened his mouth and asked about the previous few days.

"I heard that you punished Li Changzai for kneeling for a day, but is there such a thing?"

The cuttlefish was about to reach out for the pigeon cake, her hand paused, then retracted it, and replied confidently, "Yes, the concubine did this, and the concubine was extremely sad at that time, and she dared to come over to provoke, shouldn't she be punished?" Punishing her for kneeling for a day is just a warning to her, and it's not a big deal, but did Li Changzai come to you to sue later, can you comfort and comfort her? ”

The cuttlefish squinted at the emperor, his eyes were not profound, the emperor sighed, held his forehead, "What is there to comfort her, aren't you talking nonsense, you know that I will not give her a good face, no matter what happens, I will be on your side." ”

Hearing this, the cuttlefish snickered in her heart, but her face did not show Xiàn, she just looked up at the emperor, triumphant.

The emperor thought for a moment and said in a low voice, "However, it seems a little inappropriate for you to do this in front of everyone, you are just a nobleman, how can you have so much power, it will make people think that you are pampered and arrogant!" ”

"But......" The cuttlefish's face changed slightly, and she endured the words to justify, she looked at the emperor aggrievedly, and waited for the emperor to continue.

The emperor drank the last spoonful of soup in the bowl and wiped his mouth, "Otherwise, I will seal you to the position of concubine, so that your status is higher, and others will be jealous of you, and you will be able to avoid a lot of trouble, what do you think?" ”

When the emperor said this, his tone was extremely calm, as if he was talking about something very ordinary, but the cuttlefish was taken aback when he heard it, and his heart set off all kinds of waves.

She is still young, if she becomes a concubine now, she will naturally be a great honor, and she will definitely attract the attention of the six palaces.

The cuttlefish lowered his eyes, a little flattered, "The concubine has only been in the palace for a few years, and she has not been able to make a difference, how can she afford such a great glory, if the emperor really promotes the status of the concubine, I am afraid that he will favor the concubine too much, and it will provoke everyone's criticism." ”

The emperor smiled lightly, "What can't you afford, you are the best woman in the palace, just a concubine, how can you not afford it, I just prefer you, and others still care about the love between men and women?" You don't have to shirk it anymore, it's settled. ”

There are only two concubines in the palace, Ning Concubine and Yu Concubine, it's time to add another one.

"Thank you for your grace." The cuttlefish lowered its head and its cheeks were crimson. (To be continued.) )
