Chapter 309: Winter Reminiscences of Autumn
In the blink of an eye, autumn is over, a north wind is cold, and winter can't wait to come.
"Magpie, is the medicine boiled?" asked Shuang'er as she ran to the courtyard wall in the backyard and asked the little palace maid who was fiddling with the stove.
"It's almost right, it's almost enough, Sister Shuang'er, don't rush, cough cough......" The magpie was fanning the fire, and coughed straight from the smoke.
"This stove is all smoking, and the fire is not rising, how can you boil medicine, you get up, I will come." Frost pulled her aside.
The magpie rubbed his uncomfortable eyes that were smoky, "It's not my fault, Sister Shuang'er, it's not that I can't make a fire, it's just that it's too windy outside......"
Frost didn't argue with her, squatted down to play with the coals in the hearth, and blew on the sparkling place, and in a short time the fire really ignited.
"The master's illness is always good and bad, but what should I do? ”
"In my opinion, the master is too worried about the prince, didn't the doctor also say it, worrying about it. ”
"What does it mean to be worried?"
"It's just that I'm worried in my heart, and a little illness will never get better, because it's heart disease that is difficult to treat. ”
"Oh. "The magpie doesn't seem to understand.
"If you want to say it, the prince has been gone for several months, so why don't you send a message back. ”
"The prince went out to do big things, and it is estimated that it is inconvenient to send a message back, otherwise his whereabouts will be revealed, in case the bad guys know? If you want me to say, it's all your fault, tell the master about those dirty things in the palace, isn't the master more and more worried?"
"I'm also afraid that the master will be bored, so I said it. ”
"Okay, okay, you look at the medicine, and when it's ready, bring it to you. I'm going to the dining room to see if the meal is ready. ”
"Isn't the meal all watched by Mr. Kim?"
Shuang'er looked at no one around, then she grinned and said in a low voice, "Mr. Jin has gone to be a flower thief." ”
"Huh?" the magpie looked stunned with its mouth wide open.
"Don't be surprised, I heard that there is a plum blossom in the garden in the palace, and the head of Jin wants to steal a few branches, and also add some fun to the master's room. ”
"Oh," the magpie breathed a sigh of relief, "it turned out to be a folded flower." ”
"yes, what do you think it is?"
"Nothing, nothing. The magpie shook his head.
It's all because of Shuang'er's nervous appearance, it's just folding flowers, it's so mysterious.
However, this flower is not indiscriminately folded, it is indeed not suitable to be passed on, this has just entered the winter, it is estimated that the plum blossoms, maybe only a few branches, the masters of each palace must go to appreciate, you break the flowers, the tree is not good-looking, naturally to steal.
Frost was gone, and the magpie stayed by the stove and looked at the medicine jar, smelling so bitter that it was difficult for the master to drink it.
Speaking of which, the illness of the fish butterfly began in the autumn.
An autumn rain and a cold, a few rains, the sky gradually cooled.
Yu Die'er accidentally drenched a little rain outside during the day, and when twilight fell, she started a fever, and the doctors prescribed a prescription, boiled medicine, and got better after a few days, but the fever again occurred in two days.
I have been drinking tonic medicine and recuperating my body, it stands to reason that I shouldn't be so bad, and I am so sick in a rain.
Since then, the illness has been one after another.
There's no need to pretend to be sick now, it's really sick, the imperial doctor comes to report every day, and everyone in the palace knows that Princess Jin is sick.
Fortunately, it's not a serious illness, it's just a cough, no appetite, no energy, or fatal and uncomfortable.
I was afraid that the medicine would stain the dining room with the smell of medicine, and the food would smell like it, so even the medicine slave took the stove and ran to the secluded yard to boil.
Yu Die'er didn't have much energy, and she didn't have the heart to go out, and the magpie was afraid that she would be bored, so he told her something new about what had happened in the palace recently.
is in the palace, I don't know what is going on outside, I can only talk about things in the palace, and what can I do in the palace, it is meaningless to be intrigued, jealous and noisy.
On that day, as soon as she opened her mouth excitedly, she was interrupted by Feng Zhu, "Which concubine has been courteous to the emperor today? Did she send soup or sew winter clothes to protect her from the cold? Or which one of them was punished again?"
It was taboo to talk about this, but behind closed doors in the house, Yu Die'er didn't care about them so much, but Jin Song scolded them, "Master is lenient, after a long time, you have been bold, don't say anything about indecency, have you forgotten?"
The magpie bowed his head, "The slave and maid know that they are wrong, the slave and the maid are afraid that the master will be bored, and they will not be able to get out of this door, so they will talk about something new to relieve their boredom." ”
Feng Zhu also bowed his head in confusion.
"Forget it, it's okay to talk in your own house, but you can't talk nonsense when you go out, otherwise, no one will save you. Yu Die'er frightened, saying that it was rude, but the news in the palace spread so fast, who didn't say anything in private. So I don't want to embarrass them, but it's not good to talk nonsense, and if someone catches it, it's a disaster.
"Thank you, master. The magpie blinked, "But this time it's really not those things, this time, it's something big." ”
"What's the big deal?" Yu Butterfly frowned.
The magpie looked at Jin Song, and Jin Song glared, "The master asked, don't say it quickly." ”
Jin Song can't help but be strict, the master is too kind, if he is kind, he can't suppress the minions. The minions are not afraid, and they must not get into trouble. Therefore, if he did something wrong, he would punish him mercilessly.
So the minions were afraid of him.
Seeing that he agreed, the magpie spoke, "Concubine Rong, you know, right?"
"Are you talking about things, or are you talking about books? You will still hang your appetite, and if you say something useless, you just say, what's wrong with Concubine Rong?" Jin Song couldn't help but be impatient when he saw that she was slow and reasonable.
"Concubine Rong gave birth and gave birth to a prince. ”
"That's a good thing, there is a little prince in the palace, but it's a happy event, and there will definitely be a banquet at that time, but it's a pity," Jin Song glanced at Yu Die'er, "It's a pity that our master can't go." ”
"It's not like I haven't eaten good. "Yu Butterfly doesn't care.
"That is, the master eats it, and no one else can enjoy it. "This is the truth, there is silver to open the way, what good does the food supervisor dare to hide and tuck, the specification is too high.
There is no shortage of good things in Haoyuezhai's dining room.
When he said this, he just wanted to make a few funny words, so that the master could talk more, and the patient could also mobilize his emotions by talking more, so that he could have spirit.
"But Concubine Rong is gone. ”
"What?"
The magpie said that the concubine was a concubine, and Jin Song and Yu Butterfly were shocked, and the minions in the house were also shocked.
After a while, Jin Song said, "Giving birth to a child has always been a disaster, alas, it can only be said that she is blessed, she is pregnant in October and gives birth, but people have gone, and the fate is thin." ”
Although Yu Die'er didn't recognize Concubine Rong, maybe she knew it before, anyway, she can't remember it now, so she shouldn't recognize it.
Listening to Jin Song's words again, I felt that it was not easy to be a woman.
"What time is it?" she asked.
"It happened a few days ago. ”
Jin Song opened his mouth and said, "This time you are strict-mouthed, I only said it today." ”
"No, I only heard about it today. The magpie thought that he was not strict-mouthed, and as soon as he heard something outside, he couldn't wait to come back and tell his master.
"Then sew your mouth shut, don't talk nonsense when you go out, the royal affairs are cut and sorted out, don't give yourself away because of this. Jin Song kindly reminded. After several years of life in the palace, he understands too well the twists and turns, and Concubine Rong's affairs are not simple.
"Don't worry, the slave didn't say a word outside, just listened to what others said. ”
"That's good. Jin Song nodded, "I'm all for your good." Although he was strict, he hoped that everyone under him would be well.
"But the slave maid thinks that this matter is not simple, we must also pay attention, the palace may not be peaceful recently, try not to let the people of Haoyuezhai go out.
"Why?" the fish and butterflies were puzzled.
Jin Song was also surprised by the magpie's words, "Isn't there anything else you heard?"
The magpie nodded, "Rumor has it that Concubine Rong probably didn't die naturally." ”
Jin Song sighed clearly, Concubine Rong's death might really be strange.
The prince is so easy to give birth. And Concubine Rong is arrogant, and she has no good popularity. If anyone wants to make trouble, there will not even be one who will turn to her.
However, Yu Die'er frowned, "It's not a natural death, is it possible that someone killed you?"
It's horrible.
"That's what they said, what they said was very wide-ranging, and it was not possible to make a big change in the palace, and they said that the emperor had already ordered the Sentencing Department to intervene in the investigation. The magpie said worriedly, "So the slave thinks that we will live behind closed doors, and we must not be mixed in." ”
"You're right, you're right. Jin Song approvingly, "The prince is not here, so it's good that we can take care of ourselves." ”
"This matter has nothing to do with us, do we need to be so vigilant?" Yu Die'er said softly, not understanding why Jin Song was so nervous.
"Master, the affairs in this palace are too complicated, who knows who the black hand will blame on the crime, and it is the best policy to be careful and prevent trouble. Jin Song's face was solemn.
Some things don't mean that if you haven't done it, you won't have it, and it doesn't mean that people who have done it will definitely have something.
"Okay, then pass the word, the people of Haoyuezhai don't go out recently, just be quiet. "Anyway, Haoyuezhai has always been well-behaved, and Yu Die'er thinks that it has nothing to do with Concubine Rong's affairs.
No matter how dark it is, you can't refer to a deer as a horse, right?
The princess is not in good health, and it is reasonable to say that she does not go out anyway, so the minions are naturally waiting in the palace. It is also separated from the ups and downs outside.
The dishes are sent by the food director, the medicine is sent by the drug director, and the minions of Haoyuezhai are closed unless necessary.
Even the magpie is rarely quiet, so he stays in Haoyue Zhai, and he can't get news from outside.
Except for the imperial doctor who came to see Yu Die'er every once in a while, no one came. Maybe everyone else is too busy to take care of themselves.
Jin Song secretly wondered, to say that this kind of thing had not happened before, but the emperor had never moved the people like this.
The case was not settled until two months later.
The people in the palace were unanimously silent, and even those talkative minions automatically shut up.
Jin Song learned the result from Qingyu's mouth.
It turned out that it was the servants of the drug supervisor who Xue Baolin bought to change the medicinal materials, and the bowl of tonic soup that Concubine Rong drank after giving birth to the prince was a soup that could make people die of blood after giving birth.
