Chapter 86: King Qin's Fatherly Love
Tian Tianyu is obviously using estranged words to prove the fact that I am not very close to her.
She wants to take such a route, and I have to cooperate with her.
"It's fine, but I just remembered the king's previous teachings, and asked the slave concubine to walk around with Mrs. Yu, and I happened to be passing by today, so I took the liberty to visit." In this face, only by taking out Yingzheng can we calm the public, but I pray that Yingzheng will not tear down my platform.
Once again, all the attention in the hall was focused on Ying Zheng, quietly waiting for Ying Zheng's reaction!
Suddenly I feel sorry for Yingzheng, I deliberately stayed away from him in my heart, but indiscriminately put the responsibility on him, will he be angry and ignore my two-sided nature?
After drinking two glasses of wine in a row, Ying Zheng put down the glass, looked at me unhappily, and also swept all the people in the hall with a cold gaze.
"Hmmβthe widow and the wife are all a family, and it is a common thing for them to move around each other, so why do you discuss this?" Ying Zheng was full of disgust.
For a while, everyone in the hall was in danger, and they were silent.
"Yes, we are all our own sisters, and it is the greatest honor of sisters to serve the king, regardless of you and me. Your Majesty, my sisters are just joking, chattering, you have to talk to me, don't be angry. β
Mrs. Jing became a peacemaker again.
It was also thanks to Mrs. Jing's harmony that the tense atmosphere in the hall was drained, otherwise the stalemate might stimulate which nerve of Yingzheng would be angry.
However, it seems that many people are not convinced by Mrs. Jing's "plea" status of staying out of the matter.
"Sister Jing said this, we didn't say anything no, you said that, it seems that we are troublesome." Mrs. Li smiled helplessly, and her tone was also respectful and soft to Mrs. Jing.
Mrs. Jing looked at Ying Zheng, unwilling to be in such a prominent position placed by Mrs. Li, and was about to say something to Mrs. Li, when Tian Tianyu made a faint voice.
"The sisters are all joking, and the concubines know it in their hearts. It was a blessing for him to be recognized by the king and his wife for his demeanor today, but it was also because of the affection of his own family that he was so accommodating. Chestnut is a little indebted, and he should follow the example of the king and his brothers, and work harder. β
Mrs. Jing and the others heard Tian Tianyu say this, and it was difficult to answer in front of Yingzheng, and the hall was quiet again for a while.
"The slave concubine thinks about the subtlety, if there is anything thoughtful about teaching Li'er and Lifeng, I hope my sisters will advise." Tian Tian Yu is cold, she is trying her best to redeem it.
I have no intention of being in a difficult situation by myself and watching the excitement of others, since I have achieved the goal of saying "like" to the blue-robed woman, it is time for me to withdraw. The expression of grievance covered the whole face, and my heart was full of a real sense of loneliness, and I took advantage of the gap between everyone's conversations to ask Ying Zheng to return the salute from afar.
"Your Majesty, all the ladies, the concubine is unwell, dare to retreat first, please ask the king for permission!"
I was depressed just to gain some sympathy and disgust: to let them know that I was now misunderstood, and that I couldn't keep up with their words, and to ask them to let me go quickly.
"Why do you suddenly feel unwell, but you need to see an imperial doctor?"
Ying Zheng's voice was crisp, not mixed with those soft concerns, and he knew why I was suddenly unwell.
Even if there is no affection for concern, I would like to thank him for his inquiry. "Thank you for your care, the concubine is fine, and it will be fine to go back and lie down for a while."
Ying Zheng didn't force him to stay, maybe he thought I was superfluous at this banquet, so he agreed quite happily.
"That's right. Zhao Gao, you instruct the Imperial Pharmacy to take a good look at Mrs. Xi. β
Zhao Gao bowed down to receive the order, and behaved in a well-behaved manner. "Whoa!"
I withdrew my gaze from Zhao Gao and walked out with Luo Onion's support. Walking in the heat of the scorching sun, I felt that I was getting colder and colder about life, but I was numb and painless.
The people of the Imperial Pharmacy did not dare to slack off when they received Yingzheng's order, although they did not find out that I had any symptoms, but they also came every day to ask for a pulse, and every day they boiled a special tonic for me to drink all the tonics.
I didn't resist and was at their mercy.
"Mrs. Qiyu, Mama Wei asked to see her, saying that she wanted to maintain the fox's soft fur."
After receiving the report, I said to the imperial doctor who was waiting to see me drink the medicine, "Go down." β
The imperial doctor's face was embarrassed, "Mrs. Xi forgives me, slave..."
I understand that because Yingzheng personally ordered the Imperial Pharmacy to treat me, they are conscientious in everything and provide perfect service.
I picked up the medicine bowl, blew it lightly, and drank it in small sips.
Mama Wei is the person next to Ying Zheng, she comes, maybe she can reflect what new trends Ying Zheng has, whether it is beneficial to me or not, I must carefully investigate and face it.
After drinking the medicine, I stretched out the empty bowl to the waiting imperial doctor, helped him complete the task, and said, "Go down." β
The Imperial Physician no longer disobeyed my wishes and took orders.
"Whoa!"
Taking the bowl where I drank the medicine, Luo Cong carefully wiped the remaining medicine stains on the corner of my mouth for me, and said: "Madam, there are still two days to come, Mama Wei will come to collect the fox skin and clean up the fine hair. β
Yingzheng's fox fur is soft and has a special person to clean and take care of it regularly, and the interval between winter maintenance is longer, and in this spring, summer and autumn, the interval is shortened to once a month. Because Ying Zheng did not order the fox to evacuate from Qixi Palace, Mama Wei has been coming to pick it up in person once a month.
"What do you think of?" I also vaguely felt that something was wrong, and after Luo Onion's reminder, my heart was even more unsteady.
"Mama Wei is cautious, it is impossible to remember the time wrongly, and she will not disturb Madame's purity out of nowhere. She behaved abnormally like this, the slave maid thought, could it be what King Qin meant? Seeing my doubts, Luo Cong added: "Madame left gloomily at the banquet where all the sons gathered the day before yesterday, could he not be at ease and specially ordered Mama Wei to come to see Madame's love?" β
I bluntly rejected Luo Onion's conjecture.
"You have too much heart, am I that important? It's not that you don't know that I avoided him first, and he should be annoyed with me later. β
"But King Qin, he seems to care about Madame very much..."
"Shallot!"
I don't want to get too close to the terrible Yingzheng who only needs a thought and is cold and terrible to kill people, and I'm even more afraid that I will inexplicably owe him any emotional debts, and some things are not the best, so I choose to have no thoughts, no feelings, and no advice.
Seeing me looking out of the hall, Luo Cong knew that I didn't want to continue the topic, so he asked someone to pass on Mama Wei.
"See Lady Creek!"
Mama Wei brought three or four palace maids in, just like in the past to pick up and deliver fox fur. The difference is that after Mama Wei finished asking for peace, she raised her eyebrows and looked at my face after receiving the pardon I said "forgive".
My heart moved, and my whole face was yin like when I came out of the Qiongyang Palace, and I was about to overflow with tears.
"Mama Wei worked hard." I said coldly: "Luo Cong, you take Mama Wei to the dormitory to get the king's hair." β
Luo Cong took a step forward and was about to answer, but Mama Wei opened her mouth first.
"Mrs. Xie Xi. Is Lady Creek all right? β
Sure enough, as Luo Cong expected, Mama Wei came on a mission, otherwise, why did she come early and say more greetings?
"It's fine!" I looked back at Mama Wei, who must have been staring at my face, and urged with a strict tone: "Luo onion." β
Knowing that I didn't mean to greet her, Mama Wei thanked me with interest and followed Luo Cong to the dormitory.
