Chapter 21: How to Die

At night, it was pouring rain outside the window, thunder was incessant, and lightning streaked as if it were about to tear the sky in half

The roaring wind roared in my ears, and the windows slammed.

Ye Yan'er stood on the inside of the window, barefoot on the ground, staring at the dark night for a moment.

"Concubine Fang, it's cold on the ground, go in quickly."

Lu Zhu found a cloak and put it on Ye Yan'er's shoulder, and reached out to pull her back.

Ye Yan'er stubbornly raised her head: "Is the door locked?" ”

"No, the slaves and maids dare not forget the orders of the side concubine."

If the lock is not locked, why hasn't that person come yet?

She is most afraid of rainy days, every time the weather changes, Xiao Wang is always around, takes her into his arms and pats her carefully, and coaxes her to sleep.

Why hasn't it been so long since such a strong wind today?

"Did you go to Danqiong Garden?" Ye Yan'er said to Luzhu: "You go and inquire." ”

Lu Zhu glanced at the rainstorm outside the window, and subconsciously didn't want to go, and met Ye Yan'er's dark and dark eyes, she didn't dare to refuse, and nodded.

Candles were lit early in Danqiong Garden, the doors and windows were closed, and Beibei nested in Chu Yunning's arms, listening to the story of the seven dwarfs comfortably.

"Princess, the slave just saw Lu Zhu holding an umbrella and wandering under the porch." Bi Xiu was drenched after just going out for a while, let alone Luzhu at the moment.

Chu Yunning raised his eyebrows: "What about the prince?" ”

"The prince went out this afternoon and never came back, could it be that Concubine Ye thought that the prince was here with us, so she sent Luzhu to inquire?"

Bixiu smacked her tongue, if this is the case, then the green bamboo is too unlucky, and the umbrella can't cover the storm at all.

"Let her go."

Chu Yunning didn't care at all, Ye Yan'er's face couldn't be stunned for a few days, once she used the medicine of Hanxiang Pavilion, she would need to spend expensive medicine to maintain it in the later stage. She wants to see Ye Yan'er's confidence and how long she will last.

The next day, the ceremony was over, and Chu Er's spiritual seat was taken to the Jade Buddha Temple for worship.

After a heavy rain, Xiao Wang's Mansion returned to tranquility.

The air after the rain was mixed with the smell of earth.

There are also many small puddles on the ground, which people are cleaning in an orderly manner.

When King Xiao returned home, there was still a lot of mud on the hem of his clothes, and his boots had already been soaked, and he stepped on the dry ground under the porch to make footprints.

"Where's the side concubine?"

King Xiao was the first to visit Ye Yan'er.

Lu Zhu was guarding the door and saw King Xiao, and was surprised and delighted: "The side concubine is inside, the prince come in." ”

Ye Yan'er heard the movement but didn't open her face, her face hadn't recovered yet, and she still needed to wear a veil.

I didn't sleep all night, and I couldn't hide the dark blue under my eye sockets.

"Yan'er."

Ye Yan'er sniffed, turned her head to look at King Xiao after putting on the veil, and choked up: "Yan'er asks the prince for peace." ”

"Yan'er, when did you and I become so estranged."

King Xiao stopped Ye Yan'er and was about to explain where she went last night, but Ye Yan'er took the lead in speaking: "Where the prince goes is the prince's freedom, Yan'er is just a small concubine, and she has no right to ask the prince about his private affairs." ”

Bang, a basin of cold water buckled on the top of King Xiao's head.

King Xiao was detained in the palace yesterday, and he hurried back as soon as the morning dawned, but he didn't expect to get such cold words.

Ye Yan'er regretted her words, but she stubbornly refused to give in, thinking in her heart that as long as King Xiao said soft words again, she would forgive King Xiao.

King Xiao slowly stood up: "You are not well, don't catch a cold." ”

"Is the prince going to the princess again?" Ye Yan'er couldn't hold back her jealousy, and asked silently.

King Xiao frowned.

"Lord, there is still Beibei under the princess's knees, the chanting has been continuous these days, and Yan'er thinks of the child who didn't have the opportunity to meet....."

Ye Yan'er was scared, she was annoyed that her impulsiveness would annoy King Xiao.

So he gritted his teeth and put away his pride, and had to follow King Xiao's thoughts.

King Xiao let out a long sigh when he heard this, and bent down to sit down again.

"At that time, Wen Po said that he was also a boy who had become a type....."

Ye Yan'er couldn't cry silently, and King Xiao took the person into his arms in distress: "It's all over, don't cry, crying hurts the king." ”

King Xiao has not forgotten the pain of losing two children in a row during that time.

It's just that Chu Er is alive and he sees it, so he feels even more.

"Lord Wang!" Ye Yan'er threw herself into King Xiao's arms and cried bitterly.

For several days, King Xiao stayed at Ye Yan'er's.

"Princess, Concubine Ye has obviously fallen out of favor, why did the prince go over there again?" Bixiu was puzzled.

"After being spoiled for so many years, how can you say that you will give up and give up."

Chu Yunning was not surprised at all.

When King Xiao appeared holding Ye Yan'er in the early morning of the next morning, Chu Yunning's appetite was mostly gone.

"Princess." Ye Yan'er obediently saluted Chu Yunning.

She was wearing a plain long skirt, with only a few small flowers at the hem, few jewelry between her temples, and a pair of raindrop-like earrings on her ears, and her whole temperament was very gentle.

Even the eyebrows are soft, and the slender figure is thinner than before, as if a gust of wind has been blown away.

Chu Yunning took a sip of the tea in his hand, moistened his throat and put down the tea: "I haven't seen Concubine Ye for a few days, Concubine Ye is even thinner, is it that the people in the big kitchen don't care?" ”

"The princess misunderstood, it's my bad appetite, and it has nothing to do with the people in the big kitchen, the princess must not punish innocent people because of Yan'er."

Ye Yan'er regained her usual yin and yang weirdness.

After King Xiao sat down, he pulled Ye Yan'er to sit down, with a somewhat relieved smile on his face: "It's rare that Yan'er is willing to come out and walk around, and the princess is in good order in this mansion, how fortunate this king is." ”

Chu Yunning rolled her eyes, she didn't want to be one of them.

Looking at the two of you, you and me, I didn't look at it, picked up the handkerchief and wiped the corners of my mouth: "The two of you enjoy it slowly, I have to check the shop outside today, I am very busy, so I won't accompany you much." ”

At this time, the palace sent someone to see which nobleman in the palace was the eldest duke, and there were several little eunuchs behind him.

Chu Yunning's eyelids suddenly jumped violently.

"Princess Xiao, the slave is the one who has begged you for Lingzhi at the behest of Concubine Defect."

Flawed concubine?

Chu Yunning didn't have any impression of this person, how could he be embarrassed to open his mouth to ask for Ganoderma lucidum?

"Princess, the flawed concubine is newly sealed by the emperor, and she is very favored, you better take out the lingzhi, don't make it difficult for the prince."

Ye Yan'er took the lead in agreeing for Chu Yunning: "Father-in-law, don't worry, the princess will never embarrass her father-in-law." ”

The father-in-law of the Xuan Zhi smiled and said: "Thank you Concubine Ye." ”

Chu Yunning raised her eyebrows, Lingzhi is her own, why did Concubine Ye agree to be a good person for herself?

"Princess?" The father-in-law cleared his throat and reminded: "The concubine is still waiting for our family to go back." ”

This posture did not ask her for any money.

A stranger came out and asked for her Lingzhi, how big is the face?

Chu Yunning's eyebrows glanced at the smug smile in Ye Yan'er's eyes, and instantly guessed something.

"Princess, you shouldn't be reluctant to give up Ganoderma lucidum, why do you take silver so seriously."

Ye Yan'er gloated, she didn't believe that Chu Yunning dared to hold the lingzhi and not give it.

Then she will offend the flawed concubine, and there will be no good fruit to eat.

Chu Yunning smiled: "It's not that I'm stingy, this Ganoderma lucidum is really rare, I originally planned to dedicate it to the Queen Mother......"

Ye Yan'er didn't believe this: "Why have I never heard the princess mention it before, the lingzhi has been cut off to my aunt, how can the princess give the mutilated one to the queen mother, is it that the princess doesn't want to give it to the flawed concubine, and deliberately said so?" ”

When the words fell, the father-in-law immediately changed his face.

"The princess is deliberately trying to embarrass the concubine?"

Chu Yunning didn't take this concubine who had never met in his eyes at all, and said with a smile: "Father-in-law, this Ganoderma lucidum is divided into three parts, one has been sold to the eldest princess, and one I want to honor the Queen Mother, and the rest of this is no matter how much silver the flawed concubine Niangniang spends to buy Ganoderma lucidum, I don't take any of the silver I get, and donate it all to the treasury." ”

"You!" The father-in-law's face changed suddenly.

Chu Yun would rather not be stupid, the eldest princess spent money, but she gave it to the flawed concubine for nothing, isn't this obviously offending the eldest princess?

"The Princess.....

"If Concubine Ye wants to honor the flawed concubine, she can buy it for the flawed concubine."

Chu Yunning hates people who don't do things and take others as favors.

Ye Yan'er's little face stiffened slightly.

"Didn't my father-in-law come out with any money?"

Chu Yunning can't get used to people who are used to white prostitutes, and they are still so arrogant.

It's like the whole world owes her.

Xuanzhi's father-in-law nodded, how could he know that Chu Yunning was so uninteresting.

"You are the person next to the flawed concubine, and you represent the flawed concubine, as long as you are willing to sign the note and have the prince as a witness, I can take the lingzhi first and let my father-in-law take it back to pay the errand."

It is impossible to prostitute for nothing, she would rather sell favors to the emperor.

The competition for favor in the harem is changing rapidly, who knows if there will be another Li Guifei and Zhang Guifei tomorrow.

Only the person sitting on the throne has the right to kill and cannot afford to offend.

Xuanzhi's father-in-law widened his eyes and looked at King Xiao in disbelief: "The noble concubine is deeply favored by the emperor, and it is just a lingzhi, the prince should not condone the princess so absurd, right?" ”

King Xiao choked.

"This Ganoderma lucidum was purchased by me with a lot of money, no one can say it, if the concubine Niangniang has to take it by force, then I can only give the Queen Mother's share to the concubine Niangniang."

Who wouldn't be kidnapped by morality? If she is willing, she can give as much as she wants.

If she doesn't want to, no one can take a penny from her.

"Bixiu, go and wrap the Queen Mother's share of Ganoderma lucidum."

The father-in-law hurriedly stopped him, and forced out a smile: "The princess misunderstood, how dare the concubine dare to fight with the queen mother, this Lingzhi ......"

No one answered, and the father-in-law was a little embarrassed.

The flawed concubine has been losing blood these days, and I happened to hear that the eldest princess got a 10,000-year-old Ganoderma lucidum to treat the legs of the prince, which has a miraculous effect, and the flawed concubine also wants to use the medicinal effect of Ganoderma lucidum to conceive a dragon heir as soon as possible.

So I asked my father-in-law to come to King Xiao's mansion to ask for it.

"This Lingzhi is going to be in this palace!"

The voice of the eldest princess came from far and near.

The maid behind him was still holding a stack of thick silver tickets.

"Princess Xiao, except for the one dedicated to the Queen Mother, the rest will be given to the palace."

The eldest princess couldn't wait to come, and the effect of Lingzhi was enough to expel the residual cold in the body of the prince.

The doctor said that if you take it a few more times, it will be of great help to the son.

Chu Yunning looked embarrassed: "Eldest princess, it's not that I don't give it, but the Lingzhi is limited, and there are only two copies left, and the flawed concubine is also waiting to ask for it." ”

"You brought the silver?" The eldest princess condescendingly squinted at her father-in-law, domineering, and was so frightened that her father-in-law shook his head.

"There is no silver, of course, it is on a first-come, first-served basis, if the concubine is displeased, even if she sends someone to the eldest princess's mansion to reason with the palace!"

The eldest princess is the emperor's aunt, how can she take the concubine in her eyes.

The father-in-law dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, and watched as the eldest princess took half of the Ganoderma lucidum.

"Didn't the princess just say that she would donate the silver from the sale of Ganoderma lucidum to the treasury, wouldn't she not count it?"

Ye Yan'er looked at so many silver tickets, and her eyes were really red.

Chu Yunning was also in pain, and generously handed the silver ticket to Bixiu: "Go and donate the silver, and donate it to the treasury in the name of the eldest princess." ”

Pushed the boat and sold a favor to the eldest princess.

The eldest princess looked at Chu Yunning in surprise, and there was more appreciation in her eyes, who said that Princess Xiao was stupid and stupid, isn't this very clever?

"This palace has accepted Princess Xiao's kindness."

"The eldest princess is polite."

The eldest princess came to King Xiao's Mansion to take a look at Ye Yan'er by the way, and when she saw her standing beside King Xiao, her mental state was not bad, and she smiled: "It's still the princess who is generous, and Concubine Ye can recover so quickly." ”

Ye Yan'er frowned.

"The eldest princess praised, after all, she has been in a relationship with Concubine Ye for so many years, and she should take more care of her."

Chu Yunning shamelessly accepted the praise.

"Yes, thanks to the care of the princess, the princess is surrounded by many talents, and there are also skilled medical personnel, and the wound on my face has recovered in just a few days."

Ye Yan'er said and unveiled, her little face was white and flawless, and her skin was as smooth and delicate as a shelled egg.

The recovery in such a short period of time is better than before, and the eldest princess was amazed when she saw it.

So Chu Yunning was pushed to the cusp.

The eldest princess immediately said: "Princess Xiao has such a talented person around her, can you introduce it to the palace?" ”

Chu Yunning's eyes were dark.

"Yo, Princess Xiao is so powerful, shouldn't that capable person also need a lot of money to show up?"

Xuanzhi's father-in-law was deflated just now, and when he found an opportunity, he began to fall into the well.

"Eldest princess, the cost of letting this healer come forward to save the world is not low." Ye Yaner added.

As long as Chu Yunning refuses, he will not look down on the eldest princess.

Shizi has been sick for so many years, and no number of doctors have been able to heal her, so she doesn't believe that Chu Yunning can find a capable person who can heal Shizi's leg!

If she can't get her boast of Haikou, she wants to see how Chu Yunning rounds.

The eldest princess said heroically: "As long as you can heal the prince, no matter how much it costs, the palace doesn't care." ”

Being stared at by several pairs of eyes, Chu Yunning sighed in his heart, so he said: "I do know a master who knows medical skills, but she is a little weird and doesn't like to show up, I can help introduce her, but whether it succeeds or not, it depends on the sincerity of the eldest princess." ”

She hadn't seen Shizi's legs, so she didn't know if she could heal them.

Ye Yan'er said happily: "Auntie, since the princess has agreed, she will definitely heal the son." ”

"If you can really heal the prince, this palace will have a lot of thanks, Princess Xiao, this palace is waiting for your good news!"

Half an hour later, the eldest princess and the father-in-law left in turn.

Chu Yunning was in no mood to inspect Zhuangzi, his eyes fell on Ye Yan'er's white and flawless little face, and he looked envious: "Concubine Ye looks better than before, congratulations." ”

Ye Yan'er touched her face, the medicine of Hanxiang Pavilion was really good.

In just a few days, her face has recovered to be more delicate than before, and King Xiao was very sorry when he saw her yesterday.

Ye Yan'er also regained a lot of self-confidence, and generously thanked Chu Yunning: "Thanks to the tonic sent by the princess, Yan'er thanked the princess." ”

The truth is clear to both of them, but no one has broken it.

Chu Yunning explained that Bixiu packed the remaining Ganoderma lucidum and sent it to the palace to present it to the Queen Mother.

The Queen Mother treats her well, and she has taken care of her openly and secretly over the years, and it is natural for her to honor the Queen Mother.

In the evening, the Queen Mother looked at the Ganoderma lucidum worth 10,000 taels and was quite moved.

"Don't look at her usual arrogance and domineering, but her heart is real, such a valuable thing was given to the mourning family, and it was not in vain that the mourning family loved her."

The Queen Mother looked at the Ganoderma lucidum in the box, with a relieved smile on her face.

"Queen Mother, Concubine Fang is also waiting for Ganoderma lucidum to be used in medicine, if you don't get Ganoderma lucidum today, will it make trouble?" Aunt Rong said.

The Queen Mother sneered: "This year, she was too presumptuous, occupying the emperor's favor, resulting in no good news in the harem......."

Her biggest wish now is to hold her grandson.

The emperor is not young, and he has no children until now, there is no successor to the country, and the foundation is unstable, how can he not worry.

"Queen Mother, the slave maid heard that Princess Xiao knows capable people and is very good at medical skills, if she can enter the palace to give a few little masters conditioning and conditioning, maybe there will be good news soon." Aunt Yung suggested.

This sentence reached the heart of the Queen Mother.

There is nothing to come out of the harem these years, she has tried her best, she has been drafted several times, and there are all kinds of beauties, but none of them are competitive.

"Don't be in a hurry, it's not too late to mention it when there is movement on the eldest princess's side."

"What the Queen Mother said is extremely true."
