Chapter 146: Serving the Sick
The great Dharma of Daxiangguo Temple was done for three days and three nights, and the people were like participating in the temple fair, and they were addicted.
Master Shi Jia earned enough eyeballs, fame, and silver. Because the queen mother was ill, he had to give up the matter of summoning him into the palace, and he got five hundred taels of silver sent by Chang Yi, the chief manager of Yongxin Palace, and one thousand taels of silver sent by Li Mingfeng himself.
Cui Keyin handed the card into the palace, but the Queen Mother was not summoned.
There began to be rumors in the clan that the Queen Mother did not like Cui Keyin, and even the fact that she was snubbed at the beginning of the year was turned over. Just when everyone thought that the next time they saw Cui Keyin, they wouldn't have to be so respectful, and if they had the opportunity, they could step on it by the way, Cui Keyin was ordered to enter the palace to serve the sick. The clan's eyes fell to the ground.
It has been four or five days since the Queen Mother's diarrhea, Wang Zhongfang changes the prescription every day, the imperial dining room changes every day to make delicious food, and every morning eats a cup of blood swallow sent by Zhou Heng, and the Queen Mother's body has almost recuperated.
When Cui Keyin entered the warm pavilion of Kunning Palace, the Queen Mother leaned on the big pillow, holding the diora sent by Zhou Heng yesterday, and she was very happy. I didn't move every day, and the concave flesh on her face had grown back, and she looked good.
"I've seen the Queen Mother." Cui Keyin finished saluting and looked at her quietly.
Anyway, the suspicion already exists, so don't bother to please, Cui Keyin is very calm. In the future, no matter what the Queen Mother says or does, she will deal with it indifferently. Besides, she wasn't the startled woman, and she wasn't too afraid.
The Queen Mother smiled between her eyebrows, put on a straight face, and said: "The mourning family has been sick for many days, and you have not waited in front of the bed once, and now everyone outside says that you are not filial." Mourning for the family. Thinking about it, no matter what, you can't be summoned to the palace because you let people poke Ah Heng's backbone and let people say that his daughter-in-law is unfilial. Do you grieve your family? ”
Obviously handed over the sign, you refused to let me enter the palace, who would show such a tall image to? Cui Keyin sneered and looked at the Queen Mother in silence.
The Queen Mother was displeased: "What, do you have an opinion?" ”
"No, the daughter-in-law obeys the arrangement of the queen mother." Cui Keyin said.
The Queen Mother stared at her for a while, but she really didn't see any anger in her face. I couldn't help but feel a little unhappy. said: "You are the daughter-in-law of the mourning family, you should always decoct a decoction for the mourning family, right?" ”
"Yes." Cui Keyin's face was still calm, and she said, "Daughter-in-law will go." ”
The palace man led her to the pharmacy where the decoction was made. There was no burning dragon in the room, it was cold and cold. It smells of medicine. A thirteen or fourteen-year-old palace man sat in front of a small tandoor and fanned the fire. See her come in. Hurriedly threw down the fan and stood up to salute.
Cui Keyin nodded and sat down on the small pestle. Said: "Don't pay attention to me, you are busy with yours." ”
Let her sit in front of the small tandoor and shake the fan to fan the fire, it's not impossible, but with the Queen Mother's attitude towards her, she will definitely not do this.
The palace people were on an errand in Kunning Palace, and they were more confident than elsewhere, so they confessed, sat down and continued to get busy.
Cui Keyin didn't know that when she came out of the warm pavilion, Li Xiuxiu walked out from behind the screen, smiled sweetly, and said, "Niangniang should be like this." ”
When the Queen Mother saw Li Xiuxiu, she immediately smiled and said, "You kid, you have a seven-trick heart." What do you want to do when you transfer Choi's away? ”
Li Xiuxiu knelt in front of the bed, beat her legs for the Queen Mother, and said, "Niangniang just watched." Cui's looks so good, he can't stand that King Jin is a man. Men, how can there be anything that doesn't steal? ”
The Queen Mother thought of Emperor Zhi'an, although she favored Shen Mingzhu, but she was still a concubine who was fortunate to say goodbye, and couldn't help laughing.
Li Xiuxiu smiled flatteringly and said, "The dispensary's Dilong, the concubine let people stop, I'm afraid that the Cui family will stay in it for two hours, and if I go back, I will get frostbite." ”
The Queen Mother was in a better mood. Cursing her with a diorama, causing her to be poisoned by Ma Liang, causing her to lose a henchman who has been with her for 30 years, and almost dying of diarrhea, what is it to make Cui Keyin sick for a few days?
The two of them laughed when they didn't have a match.
Lu Ying stuffed a few big red seals and still couldn't get the hand stove, and she wanted to go out of the palace to get it in the carriage, and without a waist card, how could she go out at will? Seeing that the room was as cold as an ice hole, I was about to cry.
Cui Keyin said: "You want to send a letter to Yongxin Palace, as long as the queen can take a trip over, it's fine." ”
The Queen Mother made it clear that she wanted to rectify her, who in this palace dared to be kind to her? There are many people in the palace who are used to stepping high and low, who will lend a hand at this time? It would have been nice not to step on her feet.
Green Ying burst into tears.
The palace man who was on fire looked back at her, stood up and said, "The hour is almost up, the slave maid will go to get the medicine and ask the princess to help take care of it." ”
Cui Keyin responded.
The figure of the palace man had just disappeared at the door of the pharmacy, and an attendant flashed in, handed Cui Keyin a burning hand stove, a pot of hot tea, and a plate of snacks, and didn't speak, just put it down and left.
This chamberlain is tight.
Cui Keyin took it silently, she didn't dare to drink the tea, and she didn't dare to eat the snacks, so she only held the stove in her arms.
The chamberlain walked to the door and looked back to see her putting the teapot and snacks on the low cabinet, hesitated slightly, came back quickly, and said in a low voice: "The slave has received great favor from the king of Jin." These, all clean. ”
Is he Zhou Heng's person? Cui Keyin looked up, and the waiter was already running away.
The tea was hot to the touch, apparently just brewed.
Cui Keyin has been blowing cold wind here for a long time, and her whole body seems to be immersed in ice water, and she has already been very cold. It's great to have a cup of hot tea.
Zilan took out the silver needle and tried it, but it was not poisonous.
Cui Keyin sighed: "There are a lot of poison silver needles that can't be tried, so we can only take risks." ”
Like the laxative in the Queen Mother, you can't try the silver needle.
Zilan frowned and said, "I don't know if the prince will enter the palace to visit the queen mother's condition?" ”
If Zhou Heng arrived at this time, Cui Keyin's crisis would have been solved.
Cui Keyin shook her head and said, "The Queen Mother trapped me here, she has a deep meaning, although I don't know what she wants to do, I don't think I will let the prince go to Kunning Palace." ”
Zhou Heng has a waist card to walk in the palace of Emperor An, and he can enter and exit the palace gate at will during the day. The Queen Mother did this, but she was afraid that it would be unfavorable to Zhou Heng. It's just that what she wants to do, is there a figure of Li Xiuxiu in it?
Zilan said: "We have to summon it out." ”
When the princess entered the palace, she always only took her and Lu Ying or Mo Yu, but now that she is in danger, she must be closely protected and cannot leave. Who's going to be arraigned?
The two of them thought of the chamberlain just now, and wondered if he could be summoned.
At this time, the palace man walked in with a bag of medicinal herbs in his hand, ignored the hand stove in Cui Keyin's arms, the tea and snacks on the low cabinet, sat down in front of the small clay stove after saluting, and said, "Oops, the medicine has spilled." ”
The three of them were in a hurry, how could they think of taking care of the medicine furnace? The lid on the copper kettle shrugged one after another, and the jet-black medicinal juice overflowed from the cracks in the jumping lid, dripping on the red-hot charcoal fire, making a "snort" sound.
Cui Keyin guessed, this palace man should also be Zhou Heng's person, right?
At the same time, in the palace of the king of Jin, the hosta opened a package of medicinal powder and put the white powder into a cup of tea with his fingernails. (To be continued......)
