Chapter 44: Punishment
Cai Wei was right, the next afternoon, someone came to spread the word, asking the palace masters to go to Fushou Palace with the concubines.
Su Qinghui walked halfway, and met He Qi'er, who was dressed up in flowers and branches, wearing a peony smoke skirt and a thin gold silk smoke and green yarn. The butterfly hairpin in the hair walks and shakes. There is also a little master in green clothes beside her, wearing a dress similar to He Qi'er's color, but the material is clear to people who can see the difference.
Su Qinghui turned his head sideways and asked Cai Wei: "The one next to Concubine Shu is the mother of which palace." ”
Cai Wei said: "Back to the master, it is Concubine Shu in the palace." ”
Su Qinghui nodded, no wonder the two stood together, looking like imitations, it turned out to be the same furnace.
After a false greeting, He Qi'er glanced at Su Qinghui's dress and sneered: "Why, my sister has only been in the palace for a few days, and she is so diligent and thrifty." ”
Su Qinghui secretly rolled his eyes in his heart, and smiled politely on his face: "Yes, my sister looks better than a fairy, and my sister knows that no matter how she dresses, she can't compare to her sister, so it's simpler and complacent." ”
He Qi'er's face eased, and Su Qinghui praised again: "I heard that the saint has been going to the sister's palace for a few days in a row, and this dress today is also appreciated by the saint, it is really a sister." ”
Seeing Su Qinghui's enmiring expression, He Qi'er smiled proudly: "Of course, even if you have eyes, Concubine An, let's go." ”
Su Qinghui sighed and finally sent the big Buddha away. However, the concubine next to He Qi'er was just delicate at first sight, and after a few more glances, she realized that her eyebrows and eyes were very gentle and atmospheric, but she was a lovely person.
In Fushou Palace, Su Qinghui glanced at the person on the bed, dressed in plain clothes, and simply picked up the green silk with only a hosta.
Wei Wanzhou stood on the side of the bed and said softly: "Queen Mother, you are in better health today." ”
"It's much better, by the way, the mourning family heard from the emperor that a newcomer came to the palace a few days ago."
"Yes, you were unwell a few days ago, and the concubine didn't say anything, so I brought it to you today."
Wei Wanzhou said and looked at Su Qinghui and Wen Yunyi and beckoned.
"The concubine has seen the queen mother."
"Come closer to the mourners."
Compared with Wen Yunyi's timidity and cringe, Su Qinghui smiled generously.
"Okay, you are all lovely people, since you have entered the palace, you must serve the emperor well and open up branches for the royal family as soon as possible."
The Queen Mother looked at Su Qinghui again and said: "You are the girl of the Jiang family, you are really beautiful, you have worked hard in the Jiang family Beppu in the past few years, it's good to come back." ”
Su Qinghui lowered his eyes, Beppu? Isn't this a copy of her previous in Su Mansion? No wonder when she asked Jingyu about this that day, he just said a few sentences, as if he didn't need to say more, she could do this drama herself.
Thinking of this, Su Qinghui said softly: "Lishu is fortunate to have the mercy of the Queen Mother, and he will follow the teachings carefully." ”
"Okay, since that's the case, the mourning family is more relieved."
Saying that, the person on the bed coughed lightly, and the maid on the side said softly: "Queen Mother, the medicine is ready, the slave maid will serve you to drink the medicine first." ”
After the words fell, a little maid walked in with the medicine, Su Qinghui hurriedly reached out and pulled Wen Yunyi, took her to the side, and made way for Wei Wanzhou.
Who knew that the concubine's hand hadn't moved yet, but Concubine Shu jumped out anxiously and took the bowl in front of the bed. Su Qinghui was in the afterglow, and Wei Wanzhou moved lightly under his sleeves.
"Queen Mother, the concubine is waiting for you to drink medicine."
"It's Concubine Shu, I heard that the emperor has been to your palace a few times recently, you have to cheer up and serve carefully."
He Qi'er smiled: "Yes, the emperor has been busy with the affairs of the DPRK and China recently, and the ministers have been coming and going, and the concubines are also distressed, so the concubines are waiting every day, and they also ask the dining room to change the tricks every day, for fear that it will not meet the emperor's taste." ”
"Really? It's good that you pay attention. The man on the bed said that he raised his hand lightly and touched the medicine bowl.
"Ah, my clothes."
"Queen Mother, are you hot?"
The two exclamations overlapped and rang out at the same time, and everyone in the room was stunned.
Wei Wanzhou reacted first, and immediately took out an embroidered handkerchief pad and commanded on the cuffs of the Queen Mother: "Quick, go get some ice cubes." ”
He Qi'er finally realized it and stammered: "Too, the queen mother, it was the concubine's negligence, how are you, but, it's hot." ”
The Queen Mother frowned, withdrew her hand and said, "Okay, concubine, there is Pingshui to serve, the mourning family is tired, you can take them out." ”
Out of Fushou Palace, Su Qinghui looked at the back of the depressed person who walked away, with an indifferent expression.
"Respect for Concubine Niangniang"
Hearing that gentle and soft voice, Su Qinghui turned around with soft eyes.
Wen Yun also lowered his head and said softly: "Last time, last time, Yi'er didn't have time to thank Niangniang, and today I troubled Niangniang to mention it." She said and took the box in the hand of the maid next to her and said, "This is what I made with my own hands, if the mother doesn't dislike it, just accept it." ”
Su Qinghui lifted the lid, a burst of meat fragrance filled her nose, and she smiled and said: "Your thank you gift came in time, then I won't push you off, Cai Wei, accept it." ”
Seeing that Su Qinghui was willing to accept it, Wen Yunyi's face became less nervous, he added a little smile, and asked softly, "By the way, it's been cold recently, is there any warm charcoal in Niangniang's palace?" ”
"It's offered, it was just delivered yesterday, what's wrong?"
Wen Yun also breathed a sigh of relief, and her long eyelashes were curled with a layer of soft light: "It's nothing, it's good to have it, then Concubine Jingniang, Yi'er will go first." ”
"Good"
Turning the corner, Su Qinghui casually asked Cai Wei: "Yesterday you went to fetch charcoal and met Concubine Qi." ”
"Yes"
Su Qinghui pulled the corners of her mouth, this little girl was born with a soft heart and kindness, and she was in this palace full of dangers and ignorance, no wonder her sister was so protective.
After that, Su Qinghui was cold for a few days, and he waited for that person.
When Jing Yu stepped into the Shaohua Palace, the cold wind was howling outside, and in comparison, the empty palace was even colder.
He glanced at the eunuch beside him, Zhao Pu received that gaze, understood it, and immediately shrank down to arrange.
Cai Wei was stunned, and when she saw someone coming, she was shocked and said: "Your Majesty, the slave and maid will go to pass on the mother." ”
Jing Yu waved his hand: "No need, you guys go down." ”
When Jing Yu stepped into the house, Su Qinghui's green silk was scattered, without powder, his face was a little pale, sitting in front of the desk with his eyebrows and eyes focused, and he was tinkering with something in his hands.
Jing Yu walked in, only to see that she was braiding the rope. He stretched out his hand and knocked on the table, Su Qinghui frowned and raised his head: "I said it, nothing else" As he said that, he looked up and saw the person who came, and instantly stopped complaining, and returned to indifference: "The emperor is here." ”
Jing Yu raised his eyebrows: "This is the way you talk to me. ”
"The emperor wants a new tea warm room, soft and soft, out of this Shaohua Palace is everywhere, why come to me to find an attitude."
"Heh, he's so used to you, even if you don't hold back."
Su Qinghui stopped his movements: "What, the emperor didn't forget to mention that person every time he came here, did he want to find a sense of accomplishment in front of me?" ”
Jing Yu glanced at her and sneered: "What can you do now except for a few quick words." ”
"How? Isn't this what the emperor is here for? ”
"Looks like you know what you've done."
Su Qinghui added another line to go in, and said without raising his head: "Then it's better for the emperor to list a name first, and I'll pick and choose which thing it is." ”
Jing Yu frowned: "Concubine Shu, didn't you do it." ”
Su Qinghui chuckled lightly and raised his eyebrows: "What, she's unlucky." ”
"Sure enough, it's you."
"Wait, I didn't think I did it."
Jing Yu said in a deep voice, "Do you think I'm joking with you? ”
Su Qinghui put down the object in his hand and said, "Joke? Concubine Shu is arrogant and arrogant, relying on her favor to speak freely in front of everyone, does the emperor think that she still needs me, a newcomer who has just entered the palace, to remind her? ”
After silence, Su Qinghui stood up and said, "It's better for the emperor to leave earlier, it's cold here, so as not to damage the dragon's body." ”
She didn't take two steps before she was pulled into her arms from behind by Jing Yu.
Su Qinghui's face changed, and he said angrily: "Let go"
A chuckle in his ear: "It seems that you are here with me, and you can only talk as fast as you want, but since you like the harem of chaos so much, then I will help you." ”
Jing Yu let go of his hand as he spoke, ignoring Su Qinghui's changing face, and said lightly: "Take it and tie it to me." ”
Su Qinghui twisted his eyebrows, hated to grab the braided rope, just take this trip for white today, and add it tomorrow.
Between the royal robe and jade pendants, the braided rope around the waist is twisted together, which is even more abrupt.
After Jingyu left, Cai Wei came in and whispered, "Niangniang, someone is from the consular room." ”
"Delivering something?"
"Yes"
Su Qinghui leaned back in his chair and sneered, he was really a good hand at seeing the wind and rudder: "I know, tell them to put down and leave." ”
"Yes"
"By the way," Su Qinghui asked, "Has the emperor been in Concubine Shu's palace recently?" ”
Cai Wei said: "The master may not know in the palace every day that Concubine Shu has been unwell recently, and the respectful room has withdrawn Concubine Shu's brand. ”
Remove the brand? It seems that the concubine has made a ruthless move this time.
Su Qinghui turned his head sideways and asked, "Unwell?" Is it a wind chill or something. ”
"I heard that I was infected with some strange disease, the rash on my body continued, and it became more serious after taking the medicine, and the Queen Mother was afraid that she would pass the illness to the saint, so she only told Concubine Shu to recuperate."
Su Qinghui closed his eyes, it seems that this He Qi'er is really the worst move of the He family, and he was first defeated by the Queen Mother before he made a move. Oh, it's not easy to be inside or outside.
In the next few days, although Jing Yuren did not come every day, the ceremony did not break for a day, and there was a momentum to fill the Shaohua Palace. Su Qinghui looked at the room of gifts and had a headache.
Su Qinghui originally thought that He Qi'er was easy to praise, but she couldn't resist two words of praise, and she would miss her thoughts and get into trouble, but she didn't speak at all, in front of the Queen Mother, not only did she involve politics, but she also planned to Mu En alone. However, Su Qinghui was lucky, fortunately he borrowed the name of the queen mother this time, otherwise that person would not have let her go like this.
After all, that person used the name of Concubine Shu to win over the He family, and the He family counted on this daughter to give birth to a prince in order to find a way out.
Su Qinghui opened her eyes and saw that the charcoal fire in the furnace was red, and the surroundings gradually warmed up, she lifted the blanket and got up, and the wind was raging outside.
Don't you want to know which time and him will admit defeat to you first? Soon, you'll know.
