Chapter Twenty-Four: The Regent
Jin Se vomited in shock, and successfully made the Chongyang Palace banquet with each thought instantly silent and fell into a strange coldness.
In an instant, the air between Shanggong Bai and Jin Se almost condensed into ice, freezing people's hearts with fear.
In the dead silence where the needle fell and could be heard, everyone forgot to say and looked at the brocade in a daze. Shanggong was expressionless, and his cold eyes revealed indescribable coldness. Everyone looked at the tall and handsome side face of the regent, and from the calm waves, the ghost made the scalp tingle, and then realized that there was some kind of indescribable cold undercurrent.
In a trance, I don't know who swallowed the saliva, and suddenly threw the wine glass in his hand, "Oh, the imperial concubine Niangniang forgive me, the courtiers are not strong enough to drink, and it is late today, so I won't disturb the mother's rest!" ”
Jin Se looked over in a daze, the willow waist was flowery, the peach cheeks were tide and red, and he said "um" for some reason.
This subtle movement seemed to open some mechanism, and there was an endless stream of retreats in Jinse's ears.
"Speaking of which, there are still some medium-fed medicines in the house, and the courtiers are afraid that they won't be able to stay for a long time."
"The little girl is still waiting for me in the house, and I'm afraid she will cry when I go back late......"
"Yes, yes, I also have an old mother in my house to take care of......"
Jin Se couldn't hear clearly, his body was so soft that he was in a mess, his stomach was turning over the river, but he still remembered where he was, suppressing his heartburn anger, and leaning close to Ah Yang, "That dog, dog than ...... Gone? ”
Ah Yang covered her mouth violently, her expression was almost frightened, and she raised her head in horror, using all the courage she had accumulated in the first half of her life to keep herself from losing her temper on the spot.
She swallowed her saliva, not daring to look at Shanggong Bai's expression at all, "Today, today's banquet is over, Niangniang is a little unwell, since you ladies and ladies are here, there is no reason to return empty-handed." Niangniang spoke, when you leave the palace, you can choose a pot of golden autumn chrysanthemums in the garden to commemorate. ”
Everyone understands that this is to buy people's hearts, and they are asked to control their mouths and not spread rumors that they shouldn't have.
However, how dare they!
Go out and say that the imperial concubine vomited on the regent? Do you not want to live anymore, or do you feel that life is going too smoothly and want to have some "fun" for your family? Ah Yang let them leave this time, but he also kept them away from danger.
"Thank you Imperial Concubine Niangniang, Niangniang is a thousand years old!"
Mrs. Yang Guo was the first to leave the table, and then everyone also randomly chose the pots and flowers that were still eye-catching, and asked the maid to take them away, and they didn't dare to delay for too long, and in the blink of an eye, the banquet in the entire imperial garden was empty.
The flowers were in the sky in an instant, and the women and nobles didn't blink, and even the troupe and some of the guards with knives left in a hurry, as if the air in this imperial garden was poisonous, and it would suffocate people if they stayed for a second longer.
Ah Yang rushed to the palace in embarrassment and sneered, "Regent, you see...... Niangniang was drunk, and she said some wine and wine, what 'the life and death of the country is profitable' haha......" The voice became lower and lower, and Ah Yang was anxious and broke out in a cold sweat for Jinse.
Shanggong Bai glanced at her lightly, and Ah Yang suddenly kept silent, and the soles of his feet were cold.
Jin Se didn't notice it, leaned on the table softly, raised his willow eyebrows, a tall figure was reflected in his eyes, his eyes were full of autumn water, and his teeth bit his lips, as if he was extremely aggrieved.
She was very uncomfortable, Jin Se, who had been focusing on health since becoming the attending doctor, had not been so drunk for almost ten years, and this feeling of uncontrolled body and organs spasmodic in the body was too bad.
It's not like drunkenness, it's a bit like allergies.
She couldn't hold back her retching, cold sweat oozed from her body, and she instinctively reached out to pull Ah Yang, "Ah Yang, Ah Yang...... Go and prepare the decanting soup, glucose ......"
She has heard of decanting soup, what is glucose? Sugar made from grapes?
Ah Yang was anxious and afraid, and looked at Shanggong Bai sadly, "Lord Wang......"
If it is delayed any longer, the mother is afraid that she will die of discomfort.
Shanggong Bai's eyes flashed slightly, and after a while, he said, "...... Give me something. ”
Ah Yang was stunned, his cheeks were crimson, and he took out a piece of overlapping handkerchief from his sleeve and respectfully stepped forward, "The prince is angry, Niangniang, she is also desperate to make this decision, please don't blame Niangniang." ”
Shanggong Bai Mu took the towel away with a face, and did not open it to look at it, but looked at Jin Se with his hand, and said after a while: "Don't take it as an example." ”
Jin Se muttered something, Ah Yang didn't hear it clearly, but he felt the pressure on his body and immediately beckoned Yuan Yuan to come up and help people leave. Jin Se seemed to have no bones on his body, and he didn't resist when he was helped up, he obediently leaned on Ah Yang, and smiled like a little fool.
The little fool was interested, stroked his cheeks, and the tips of his pink fingers made a "eight" on his chin very narcissistically, "Ah Yang, look at my face, is it beautiful?" ”
"......" Ah Yang awkwardly sped up his movements, and pulled people out of the pavilion as if he was fleeing, while saying perfunctorily: "Beautiful, the mother is all over the country and the city, there is no one in ten thousand, and there are no women in the world." ”
"Of course!" Jin Se tilted his head and smiled, "This look is really amazing, amazing, let me tell you, I used to be like a yellow-faced woman...... If you have this face, you can't even hate being angry......"
"Mother, you can settle down." It's nonsense again.
Shanggong Bai was not in a hurry to leave, and the silence after the excitement did not affect him at all, but made him feel at ease. He opened the towel in his hand, looked at the dark fabric and squinted, turned on the standing palace lamp next to him, and placed the fabric on the candle flame.
The flames ate away at the cloth little by little, engulfing the golden thread pattern of the lion and tiger battle on it, and Shanggong sneered and threw the cloth that burned between his fingers into the wine glass.
……
Jin Se was helped back to the palace, the maid prepared hot water and sobering soup in an orderly manner, she was helped back to the bed in a groggy state, and Ah Yang wiped her body with a hot cloth.
In a trance, Jin Se saw Ah Yang crying silently, she opened her mouth to comfort her, but she didn't want to spit it out again. Shaohua Palace was noisy for a while before it quieted down, and the palace room smoked a light lotus fragrance, refreshing people's hearts.
Putting down the bed curtain, Ah Yang led the people to retreat, stood at the door for a moment, sighed and turned around.
However, Jin Se did not sleep peacefully, and in the middle of the night, the sobering soup worked, and she covered her head and woke up, and her mouth was dry and wanted to ask for water.
"Someone is ......coming," she rubbed her forehead, her mouth glowing with the bitter taste of Coptis chinensis, "bring a cup of cold water to this palace." Cold water woke up, she didn't like her confusion very much.
However, after waiting for a long time, it was as if there was no second person in this palace, not even Ah Yang. Jinse shook her head with great effort, and did not get angry, but got out of bed to pour water by herself in a daze, but the room was dim, and she couldn't find where the table was, but accidentally knocked open the window.
The breeze entered the house, Jin Se was excited, and he was awake for a few minutes, and looked up to see a bright and round moon, as well as a brilliant galaxy that had not been seen for a long time in modern times.
Jin Se was stunned, and with a shocked illusion, he leaned out half of his body.
"Wow, if only I had a camera......"
She sighed in a low voice, she was so busy in the hospital in her last life that her feet didn't touch the ground, and most of the time her life was three points and one line, not to mention traveling to see the stars, even the number of times she went out of their city was only a handful.
But thinking of being the imperial concubine now, trapped in the palace, her life is in jeopardy, and there are always people around her, and even God is against her, it seems that the situation is even worse.
As soon as his brain was hot, Jin Se was very unhappy when he looked at the high wall again, "You star!" ”
Wall: "......"
"Stare again! The old lady is the attending doctor on the top ten floors of the second hospital in Hengshi City! Want to lock me up? No way! ”
Wall: "......"
Jin Se was angry, and the smell of wine was on her head, as if there were really a pair of eyes on the wall watching her, and she rolled over and fell out of the window.
With a click, he fell under the beam, and his five bodies fell to the ground.
She raised her head, looked left and right with a clear sense, looked at the one-person high palace wall, took two mouthfuls into her hand, rubbed her palms, lifted the hem of her skirt, and staggered towards the palace wall......
It's night, and the stars are sinking.
The cold feast of the leftovers has dissipated, but there are still people in the imperial garden who are pouring themselves drinks, like a lonely ghost and a wild ghost, bound in the iron wall of bitter chrysanthemum.
The autumn breeze was bleak, the cold was cold, and the wine was already cold, but he didn't care at all, just stared at the stage that had not yet had time to be dismantled.
The palace door had already been locked, but no one rushed to disturb him, and the palace maids and eunuchs who passed by panicked after seeing it, and the swordsmen guarding the palace city did not see it, as if they didn't see this person at all.
Shanggong Bai spent the night in the palace not once or twice, this was where he grew up, and it was also the place where he spent all night reviewing the folds. The little emperor was close to his cousin, and asked him to stay and speak many times, and even the imperial history was too lazy to continue to impeach.
This is a tacit fact in the palace - the regent is free to enter and exit the palace, even if the palace gate has already been keyed.
The chrysanthemum stuffed crab sent from the dining room was already stunned, and the beautiful crab shell was dismantled and reassembled, as if it was as beautiful as before it came out of the steamer. But after putting it for a long time, it is inevitable that there will be a fishy smell of ginger oil, and Shanggong Bai put down the wine glass and felt dissatisfied.
He stood up, walked down the Yuhua Pavilion in the moonlight, and turned around to leave the palace, but suddenly a miserable white slender but flying figure suddenly floated in front of him.
The figure staggered, his steps reversed from side to side, no powder and no coat, shaking into a sieve in the night autumn wind, becoming another ghost in the imperial garden besides him.
The ghost laughed as she walked, coming in the right direction.
Suddenly, Jin Se stopped, his eyes stayed on him for a moment, his eyes brightened, meaning that he inexplicably used his gaze to walk up and down his body. That gesture made Shanggong Bai successfully think of the children of the women of the good family who were flirting on the street.
The corners of Shanggongbai's mouth twitched.
In the middle of the night, lonely men and widows, and there was a woman like a wolf and a tiger opposite, Shanggong Bai thought about his innocence, if he was discovered, no matter how he defended, he would not be able to escape the charge of rebellion.
He is not afraid of impeachment and coercion, but he feels troublesome and does not want to spoil his purity.
So Shanggong Bai quickly turned around and walked away, his speed was fast, as if he was avoiding the plague god.
Jin Se was dazed for a moment, always feeling as if he had seen this scene somewhere. And I don't know why, she suddenly felt very unhappy and wanted to catch up and beat people up, why?
Jin Se's mind flashed the pale picture of Shanggong Bai sleeping on the bed, suddenly woke up, rolled up his sleeves aggressively, and roared, ", skip the doctor?!" ”
"Stand in front of you, you're already surrounded! Come back to the bed with me! "Waste of medical resources! Why are there so many fools in this world who don't respect the doctor's advice? The more Jin Se thought about it, the more angry he became, "You run one more step!" The old lady turned around and turned over it, believe it or not! ”
Shanggong Bai's feet were in chaos, and he was caught off guard and collided with the rockery.
Behind the rockery, the stubborn palace guards were full of confusion, as if they had been struck by lightning.
The emperor and the imperial concubine said that he wanted to ...... Why is the regent coming?
