Chapter 143: Everything is quiet
Shen Xiang is an old man in the Qingyan Palace of the Ma Palace, he has been in the palace since he was a child, and now he is in his twenties, what else is he not clear about in this palace? It's just that he takes care of his identity, is old and serious, keeps his mouth shut about everything, has goods in his stomach, but is steady in his mouth. Therefore, the people of Ma Gong value him quite much, and give him a few small sums from time to time, and often send him some errands.
The little princess's illness has not been a day or two, only out of the confinement, she often has a hot cough, the emperor was troubled by Deng Guiren's affairs at that time, and he didn't come to see it often, so he only found a doctor to come and prescribe some medicine to eat, and the emperor hid it.
After Deng Guiren fell out of favor, although the emperor often walked in the palace, the emperor didn't like to listen to the people of the Ma Palace because they always said something sour and vinegar, although they still valued the little princess, but the people of the Ma Palace were indifferent and did not move around diligently. The matter has been put on hold, except for the people in the Qingyan Palace, few people know that the little princess is sick.
He was a little yellow door in the palace, and he was only a little yellow door for a short time, and the people of the Ma Palace often patted the horse and said a few good words, and the people of the Ma Palace also valued him more, and he was indispensable for big and small things.
On this day, he ate a lot at noon, and in the afternoon, his stomach began to fight, five meat and six vegetables were stirred, and he ate two pieces of ginger, but he still didn't do anything. I had to go to the east toilet again and again. At night, it was even more powerful, only to feel that the whole body was about to be dehydrated, and there was no strength at all, so I gritted my teeth and went to the Magong people to ask for peace. Seeing that the little princess was asleep, it was fine, the people of the Ma Palace were embroidering a belly pocket, and several maids around her were serving well. I was relieved, and ran to the east toilet a few more times, knowing that if I continued like this, I had to lie down, so I gritted my teeth and endured it. His face was blue, but he still got up and walked towards the east toilet.
After squatting for half an hour, I felt that my stomach was looser, and I lifted my pants and looked up at the sky. It turned out that it was already cloudy at some hour.
A cool breeze hit. Zeng shuddered a few times, and looked up to see that the lights in the Magong people's bedroom were still on, and he felt strange. It's so late, why hasn't she slept yet. So he turned around and came to the door, and was about to go in, but he heard "Bang!" inside. The sound of something shattering. Then I heard the voice of the Ma Gong people: "What's so good about you being so stubborn?" It's a big deal, everyone is dead. I can't live, and neither can you! β
Zeng was taken aback, who was so bold and dared to pester the people of Ma Gong, and his curiosity rose sharply for a while. Thinking about it, I'm running my stomach right now anyway, so I might as well just stay outside for a while. By the dim light, he crept to the window of the dormitory. Pick a corner of the curtain with your fingers and look inside.
The light inside is dim. Several copper horn candlesticks were extinguished, but there was an oil lamp lit on the desk next to the bed, and the flame of the lamp was as bright as a bean with a faint green light, which looked a little miserable. Zeng squinted for a long time, only to see that the Ma Gong people were sitting on the bed, the little princess was held in her arms, sleeping sweetly, her little face was red, and she still had a high fever.
Next to the couch stood a very tall man, with his back to the window, his face could not be seen clearly, and he could only hear his voice. He was dressed like a doctor, but he didn't know who it was. At this time, I heard the man say, "I am not pestering you, but this child has been born, and you will not mention the matter between you and me." I have my own heart, but you have no intention, where do you let my heart go? β
Ma Gongren seemed to have made up his mind, raised his face and stared at him coldly: "At the beginning, you took the opportunity to see a doctor to occupy my body, and this child is your blood and bones, do you still need to talk about this?" At this time, the emperor has recognized her as a princess, and she will be glorious and rich in the future, and I will also be a nobleman. If you are a physician, you have great ability, can you be the emperor? β
The man sneered: "I can't be the emperor, but if you become a nobleman or a queen, you have to take care of me, I heard that you are active in the Taiyi Bureau, and you want to drive me out of the palace in the name of making a mistake in the use of medicine and not curing the little princess, but is there such a thing?" β
Ma Gongren put the child on the couch and said in a low voice: "You don't care what you say, the little princess is your biological daughter, and you can take good care of her in the Taiyi Bureau, how can I drive you away?" β
"Don't prevaricate me with such words, what are you thinking in your heart, don't think I don't know. Once our affairs are revealed, it will be a big deal, not to mention that the emperor has no face, and we are also guilty of the life of the nine clans. You and I don't know, drive me away, you stop being your nobleman, the queen, is what you think in your heart. But today I said to the end, if you want to get rid of me, there is no door, and I have to pull you as a cushion even if I die. We'll see! The man let go of the cruel remark, turned his head, and looked out the window. Zeng Ji was already stupid when he heard it, his eyes were so frightened that his eyes were straight, his mouth was wide open, his whole body was drenched in cold sweat, and he was frozen outside the window like a stone man, unable to speak! Seeing that he suddenly turned around, he still couldn't see clearly with the light behind his face, but he clearly recognized that the person was Guo Jin, the imperial doctor who had been treating the little princess.
"What do you want?" He heard the low roar of the Ma Gong people and knew that she had moved.
"What am I going to do? I still think that the profession of being a Tai Doctor is too low, you think of a way, I want to be a Tai Yi Ling! He looked extremely impatient.
"No, I can't do it, you also know that the emperor is not so good to me. Otherwise, you won't be taken advantage of by this thief! β
"Can't do it? Well, give me five thousand dollars, I've been a little tight lately. Guo Jin sneered, and suddenly hugged Ma Gongren's body.
"Get out of here, get out of the way, don't touch me!" Ma Gongren struggled to get rid of his clutches, but he still held him in his arms.
"Not touching you? Is it possible? If the emperor doesn't come in the future, I will come to see you every day in the name of watching the little princess? Guo Jin put his mouth up and kissed the people of the Ma Palace.
"The little princess's illness will be cured!" Ma Gongren pushed Guo Jin away and shrunk his body into the bed.
"Will it be good? Hehehe! Guo Jin sneered in an ugly voice, "She'll be sick all the time." I'm not going to let her be okay. β
"What did you do to the little princess? She's your flesh and blood! Ma Gongren's eyes widened in horror and looked at Guo Jin in disbelief!
"I didn't do anything, I just added something to her medicine and kept her burning. Don't worry about eating it, I'll put it every other day. She doesn't have anything to do, but she is sick, so I can come to you every day. Baby, come, let me kiss it. Guo Jin threw himself on the bed. The Ma Gong people screamed and dodged. But the more she hid. The more Guo Jin wanted to hug her. Suddenly, Ma Gongren felt that he was pressed against a soft thing, and only a muffled voice came to him, and his heart tightened. Desperately pushed Guo Jin away and looked down, but saw that the little princess's neck had been crooked to the side, and the flush on her face was slowly subsiding.
She screamed and picked up the baby. The voice was already trembling, "You." You, crushed the child! β
Guo Jin was also startled, and hurriedly brought the child over to check, but saw that she was no longer breathing. Frightened, the child fell to the ground.
"Ahh The Ma Gong people let out a sharp cry and picked up the child in tears. I almost fainted.
Guo Jin took a few steps back, like a wooden man. Far away, Ken leaned closer, only stunned to watch the Ma Gong people crying.
Suddenly, he ran a few steps, knelt down in front of Ma Gongren, and slapped his face hard, crying: "What a bastard, the child is a father who can't stand you!" β
A cold wind blew outside, blowing the window crackling, and the Ma Gongren raised his head weakly, looked at the window, and said in a low voice: "The child is dead, dead, you killed her with your own hands." β
Guo Jindao: "Ronghua, God knows this matter, you know it, I know." Don't get into trouble again, I meanβ"
He whispered a few words in the ears of the people in the palace, and said: "Ronghua, if the emperor knows about this, my family and your family will die without a place to bury, and the emperor will definitely break us into pieces." So, you have to do what I say. β
Ma Ronghua hit a spirit, only to realize that the terrible scene just now, the terrifying scene was not a dream. She suddenly came to her senses, Guo Jin was right, she had to be decisive so as not to cause death. So he put the child back on the couch, took a deep look, and said to Guo Jin: "You go quickly, when you come up tomorrow morning, I just say that I will ask the princess for peace, and then it will be up to you who is the one who bears the blame!" β
Zeng Ji's first thought was to leave this place of right and wrong. He saw Guo Jin walking towards the door through the window screen, so he carefully moved his two cold and numb legs, and slowly left the window against the root of the wall, and heard the voice of the Ma Gong people coaxing the child in a low voice, "My good child, go to sleep, sleep well, my mother will accompany you!" β
Zeng Ji's whole body was cold, and he turned around the dormitory to pass through the breath, his heart was pounding wildly, rushing to the sound of ear drums, and subconsciously rubbing his stomach, it didn't hurt at all, but his steps were empty, his head was dizzy, and his legs trembled as if he was about to faint.
When he arrived at his door, he saw Guo Jinzheng staring at him coldly, and he was so frightened that he said "Mom", his heart was in a trance, and he collapsed to the ground.
When I woke up, I was already lying on the couch, the lights in the room were dim, and I only saw a figure sitting next to the bed, and when I looked hard, it was Shen Xiang, who struggled to get up and said, "Lord Principal, I-"
Shen Xiang waved his hand and said, "Needless to say, I know everything, what are you going to do?" β
His calm voice made Zeng Ji's heart relax, but the scene he saw just now was like a nightmare, making him tremble. He screamed in despair, covered his face and said, "I don't know either, it's terrible!" β
He didn't expect how Shen Xiang knew the story here. I just feel safer in the dark.
Shen Xiang stood up and walked a few steps in the room, "Actually, I have long known about the affairs of the Ma Gong people and Guo Jin, but everyone has turned a blind eye to these things and refused to say them clearly. How could the palace maid of the Ma Palace people not know the strangeness in this, but since there is no East Window matter, it is treated as if it is nothing. It just so happened that you knew the truth at this time, and what was even more terrifying was that you also saw the scene when the little princess died, and Guo Jin knew who you were, and now you have become meat on the chopping block, and they will kill you at any time. β
"So, the person I saw before I fainted was really Guo Jin?" Zeng asked with a few shudders.
"Yes, if I hadn't deliberately made a little noise, I'm afraid you'd be a corpse by now." Shen Xiang sighed, looked at the bean-like light, rolled his eyes, and finally gritted his teeth.
"Zengji, do you want to die or live?"
"Of course I want to live!"
"Then listen to me, early tomorrow morning, you go to Guo Jin and tell him that you are a person from the Ma Palace, you will never reveal secrets, and you can help them." He shook his steps slowly, but his voice seemed unusually firm. (To be continued)
