The man's eyes flashed, and he slowly let go of the hand that had been holding her shoulder.

The man in front of him was dressed as an assassin who broke into the Forbidden Palace at night, but the strange thing was that Ye Jin's subconscious reaction was not to call for help, but to turn his head and look around to see if anyone found him.

"Don't worry, no one will find out about me." The man seemed to know her thoughts, and said something to reassure her, and then said in a low voice: "If you want to solve Concubine Mei's predicament, find the medical book left by your mother." ”

"Why are you ......" Ye Jin was about to ask him how he knew that her mother had left a medical book for her, but before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by a sound not far away, and the man jumped on the eaves in vigilance and disappeared.

The person who came was Mama Li, she saw Ye Jin alone in a daze with the eaves, asked for a pleasant, and asked softly: "It's hard to see that the crown princess hasn't slept all night guarding our mother, are you tired?" ”

"I'm not sleepy after squinting for a while, why did Mama get up so early?"

The sky was about to dawn, Ye Jin got up and walked to the dormitory, Concubine Mei was lying quietly, Moon Shadow was lying on the side of the bed and napping, she slowed down.

"When people are old, they feel less."

Mama Li followed Ye Jin into the dormitory, raised her eyes and glanced at the already sleeping bamboo shadow on the ground, and said hatefully: "It is said that this cheap hoof has been serving in Lengwu Palace for three years, and I didn't find out that she had this ambition before. ”

"Mama has served Concubine Mei for a long time, right?" Ye Jin asked along with Mama's words.

Mama Li looked at Concubine Mei lying quietly on the bed distressedly, and couldn't hide her blame in her reply: "Although it hasn't been for a long time, it's been more than ten years, and it's really my dereliction of duty to be a slave and maid to suffer today." ”

"Mama doesn't have to blame herself, fortunately, the mother's heat has faded."

Mama Li's worried eyes did not leave Concubine Mei: "The heat is subsiding, but I don't know when Niangniang will wake up." ”

"It's about to dawn, I wonder if Mama has prepared my mother's breakfast?"

"The princess doesn't know, Niangniang has always been asleep all these years, rarely eats, only uses decoction to continue, and breakfast has never been on time, so Niangniang is so thin, and the illness is always bad, alas, ......" Mama sighed.

"Moon Shadow, this girl is not sensible, let her take care of Concubine Mei, she actually fell asleep by herself, bothering Mama to take care of Niangniang, I'll take her to prepare some breakfast that Niangniang can use."

Ye Jin took the moon shadow out of the dormitory, whispered a few words in her ear, and saw her disappear outside the palace gate, and came to the dining room alone.

Ye Jin's family background is actually not good, she is used to eating coarse tea and light rice at home, Yun Sanniang is okay when she is in good health, she has good craftsmanship, and the ingredients can make a good taste in her hands, but since her body collapsed, Father Ye is idle and careless at home, and the days are not as good as day by day, and the sisters often have no stomach, but now they can't help but feel desolate when they look at the scene in Lengwu Palace, it turns out that even in this flowery palace, they are worse than the common people.

Picking and choosing, he finally boiled out a bowl of medicinal food that could be eaten, and when he returned to the dormitory, he saw that the medicinal food was still hot, so Ye Jin went to fetch some water to freshen up and wipe Concubine Mei.

Slowly fading Concubine Mei's clothes, Ye Jin looked at her carefully for the first time, she didn't see the sun all year round, her skin was so white that it was almost transparent, her pale face showed that the scars on her face were hideous and terrifying, her cheeks were thin, her eye sockets were sunken, the hair hanging on her shoulders was dry and yellow, and after the high heat faded, her body was cold, although there was a stove in the hall, her hands and feet were still as cold as iron.

Ye Jin covered her hand in the palm of her hand and rubbed it for a long time and didn't see the temperature, so she simply took a wooden bucket, poured hot water, mixed some warm-up medicine into it, stripped Concubine Mei's clothes, put her in the bucket, put a cloth towel behind her head for her to lean on, and moved the stove closer to let her soak quietly.

The cold wind blew in through the crack in the window, and the coolness lifted her sideburns, Concubine Mei suddenly shrank and slowly opened her eyes, this is a pair of eyes that amazed Ye Jin, which are somewhat similar to Ming Zisu's eyes, cold and indifferent, but it seems to hide a thousand words.

Concubine Mei actually has a pair of talking eyes, her eyes are circulating, her eyelashes tremble slightly, and she seems to have a thousand sorrows hidden in her eyes.

After looking at each other silently for a moment, Concubine Mei closed her eyes weakly and fell asleep, but Ye Jin's gaze turned to the center of her eyebrows, which was pale red, like a red mole and a flower, and she couldn't tell the difference.

Having an understanding, Ye Jin began to check Concubine Mei's body, and sure enough, she found a total of six such pale red places on her body, one in the center of her eyebrows, one in each wrist, one in the center of her feet, and one in her heart, the color was pale red, just like that, she quietly dressed Concubine Mei and lay back on the bed.

As soon as the sky was bright, Ye Jin commanded Mama Li and Father-in-law Qi to clean up and down the Lengwu Palace, after cleaning, the entire palace looked much cleaner, but in the end, it was close to the end of the year, the autumn scene was depressed, the cold wind was wheezing, and the last bit of spring in the courtyard was blown off.

At noon, Moon Shadow came back, and Ye Jin asked Mama Li to guard Concubine Mei, and she took Moon Shadow to the Floating Fragrance Garden.

The best scenery in the floating fragrance garden is the plum blossom that is bright red and dazzling, the red plum in the snow is the most amazing, the branch smells lightly, the fragrance refreshes the nose, the flowers fall into the mud, the fragrant dust is crushed, the skirt corner is lightly rolled, and the incense soul is startled.

Ye Jin remembered that her mother loved plum blossoms the most, when she was still in good health, she opened up a plum garden in the backyard with her own hands, and planted a few when she was free, year after year, the plum garden became bigger and bigger, wantonly occupying the entire stretching mountain, every flowering period, plum blossoms stretched into a sea, thousands of plum blossoms, Yun Sanniang's face was like peach blossoms, her eyes were like water, she looked down at the little Ye Jin, but her eyes passed through her ethereally, condensed in a place of nothingness, and there was a deep nostalgia and forbearance in her eyes. It seems to be sending an old man who can never see each other again.

"Jin'er, look, how beautiful!"

The young Ye Jin still can't understand what a beautiful scene this piece of reckless domination of all the branches is snow-white or red, in Yun Sanniang's eyes, but she knows that if she nods, Yun Sanniang will laugh, and her smile is more beautiful than the plum blossoms all over the mountain.

So she nodded obediently: "It is indeed beautiful." ”

The mother really smiled, led her and began to walk, every tree, every branch, every flower, every petal, every fragrance, she admired it carefully.

The little Ye Jin followed her, looking at the corners of her skirt, the colorful fallen flowers rolled gently, and the pink and cute little face was also full of smiles.

It is a more beautiful scenery than the Floating Fragrance Garden, but unfortunately no one has taken care of it since Yun Sanniang was sick, and it gradually withered, and when it comes to flowering, I can only see mottled flower shadows, and there is a sound of conversation on the stone path not far ahead, which interrupts Ye Jin's thoughts.

Moon Shadow followed Ye Jin quietly, unconsciously holding the budding plum branch in her hand, feeling Ye Jin's side gaze, she lowered her head and sped up her pace, suddenly there was a shrill whistling behind her, followed by a heavy sinking of her back, and a white shadow quickly rushed out from behind her, flashed into the depths of Merlin in an instant, and disappeared.

"Silver Snow!" Chu Yue was shocked and hurriedly chased in.

Moon Shadow was caught off guard by being hit, her center of gravity was unstable and she threw herself forward, falling to the ground in embarrassment, and the plum branch in her arms took off her hand and smashed it on the face of the oncoming Fang Guiren, making her delicate makeup.

"Oops!" Fang Guiren took two steps back with a disgraced face, covering his chest with one hand, protecting his slightly bulging lower abdomen with the other, raising his eyebrows and glaring at Moon Shadow, and the eunuch who followed beside him raised his hand to slap him, "snapped", Moon Shadow's face was beaten to the side, and he immediately knelt down and pleaded guilty: "The slave and maid didn't mean it, please spare your life." ”

The eunuch scolded viciously: "Which palace maid are you, so ignorant of the severity, if you hurt the mother's dragon fetus, can you afford it?!" I have to send it to the court of sin to see the blood, and I have to learn the rules carefully! ”

Chu Mo's face sank slightly: "In front of the dragon fetus, Father-in-law Ying, please be cautious." ”

"It's... Be... What Mo Gongzi taught was that the slave lost his words. The British father-in-law bowed down in disagreement.

Chu Yue had already retrieved Yinxue, came to Fang Guiren's side, and smiled gently: "Your noble, please forgive your sins, Yinxue is very docile on weekdays, and the Queen Mother also likes it, so she brought it into the palace to ask for peace, I don't know what happened today, I actually rushed into the nobleman, I don't know if the nobleman is unwell?" ”

"Bengong feels panicked at the moment, and I'm afraid that the makeup will be spent." Fang Guiren secretly glared at the moon shadow kneeling on the ground, and said unwillingly: "That's it!" Hurry back to the palace! ”

Chu Yue said: "Noble and slow, at this time, I am afraid that the emperor has just finished discussing things with Lord Meng, and he is going to Ningkang Palace to accompany the Queen Mother for lunch. ”

"This ......" Fang Guiren made a difficulty, and Gonggong Ying immediately stepped forward and said in a low voice: "Master, Ningkang Palace does not dare to disturb, this place is far away from the concubine's residence, and only Lengwu Palace is closest to here, so it is better to ......"

"This palace won't go to that bad place!" Fang Guiren raised his eyebrows and covered his nose, his face was full of disgust, and he shouted in a low voice.

"Miss Ke Yue is right, today the emperor is discussing with Lord Meng in the imperial study, this is counting the hour, the emperor is only afraid that he has already left the imperial study and is coming here, in case he meets ....." Ying Gonggong carefully persuaded.

Although Fang Guiren was reluctant in every way, he was also worried about the loss of honor in front of the emperor, so he had to reluctantly go to Lengwu Palace, cover his nose and enter the side hall, and the personal maid re-tied his hair in a bun and reshaped his appearance.

Chu Yue stood quietly holding Yinxue, looked at the eyebrows of the noble man Fang and asked, "What the noble man painted today is the moon eyebrows?" The courtiers have learned a new kind of peach blossom, which is beautiful and smart, and the eyebrows drawn by the nobles today are very commensurate, and the nobles are willing to give it a try? ”

"Then let's try it." Fang Guiren said lazily.

"Yes, the nobles will wait a while, and the courtiers will go and get some things." Chu Yue Yingying bowed and stepped back.
