Chapter 34: The Empress is seriously ill
Xiao Cui saw that Concubine Li seemed to be very tired, so she sighed softly and went out, and the little eunuch outside the door greeted her early: "But you want to tell the general about this?" I think the general will definitely administer justice for his mother. ”
Xiao Cui slapped him on the head and lowered his voice to reproach: "The general didn't put you next to Niangniang to let you call the shots, Niangniang said that she didn't want the general to get involved, just go and tell the truth, don't exaggerate!" ”
The little eunuch touched his head and was a little helpless: "Niangniang is suffering a big grievance and doesn't let people say it, be careful that the general knows about it and will tie you up and beat you!" ”
Xiao Cui's eyes widened, and he grabbed his ears and whispered reproach while going to the root of the wall: "Xiwang, you kid is amazing, you have been disobedient since you entered the palace, and now you dare to question even Niangniang's decision, you honestly explain whether you listened to someone's nonsense!" ”
Xiwang grinned and begged for mercy in a low voice, and glanced nearby: "Auntie, what did you say!" Is there anyone else who doesn't know about our master's affairs? Isn't this also for the sake of the master! ”
Xiao Cui yanked his ears hard when she heard this, and muttered a complaint in her mouth: "The master is very concerned about this matter, and you are not slapping the master so obviously here!" All these years the food has been eaten in the dog's belly. ”
Xiwang had no choice, he spread out his hands and whispered helplessly: "Then what do you say, now the general also knows, now the master has given this order, don't say it's me, even if you go, you have to ask the general to come out!" ”
Xiao Cui sighed and threw the handkerchief in her hand on the ground regardless of it: "This is all something you made, if you can't settle it, you can see if the master can spare you!" ”
Xiwang went out with a sad face, Xiaocui stood in place and sighed, and after a while, a little palace maid came in outside, Xiaocui was stunned for a moment before remembering that this little palace maid was in the queen's palace.
"What are you doing here? But what does the queen command? ”
The little palace maid smiled when she heard this: "What did Sister Cui say, the queen is already difficult to protect herself, I came here just to find a way out for myself, I think Concubine Li has long been dissatisfied with the queen's order, I want to come to my sister to ask for a favor!" ”
Xiao Cuixin said What is this mess, Niangniang's order hasn't gone out yet, how do you know what she means.
The little palace maid was a little panicked for a while when she saw that she didn't speak, and Xiaocui couldn't bear to look at her like this, so she patted the ash on her body and sighed: "Don't say that I don't care about you, it's really what Niangniang means, I can't be the master, you wait here for a while, I'll help you ask." ”
The little palace maid hesitated for a while, but nodded and stood there without moving, Xiaocui hurriedly walked a few steps, and when she arrived at the door of Concubine Li's bedroom, Concubine Li seemed to have known for a long time, and said nonchalantly: "Now that I am seriously ill and short of spirit, I will not keep her, this kind of ungrateful thing will be sent to the Internal Affairs Office!" ”
Xiao Cui lowered her head and said yes, the little palace maid didn't dare to say more when she saw that her expression was not very good, she turned around and wanted to leave, Xiao Cui made a look at the two people at the door and blocked the door, and the little palace maid squeezed out a smile when she saw this: "Sister, what are you doing, I'm just here to come and see, but there is no disrespect at all." ”
Xiao Cui said coldly to the two people: "This palace maid should be sent to the Internal Affairs Mansion, just say that she is ungrateful to the Lord, and let the Internal Affairs Mansion take care of it." ”
The movements of the two people were very clean, and the little palace maid didn't even say anything, and Liu was taken away.
Unlike the Liyun Palace, there was chaos in the Queen's Palace.
The imperial doctor kept coming and going, Qin Zhao also ran in tightly, Cai Wei saw that the emperor hurriedly saluted, Qin Zhao helped her up and asked a little urgently: "What's the matter, isn't it okay in the morning?" ”
Cai Wei touched her tears and cried: "The slave doesn't know, the maid just said to take a break, and she didn't want to be able to get up when it was time for dinner. ”
Qin Zhao didn't want to say anything more at this time, and was about to ask clearly, when Zhang Dequan behind him made a voice: "Your Majesty, the general asked to see him, saying that he had been waiting in the imperial study for a while." ”
Qin Zhao thought about it and sighed: "You stay here, and the queen will tell me when she wakes up." Cai Wei nodded quickly. Qin Zhao didn't care about the etiquette at this time, and hurriedly walked to the study.
If there is anyone in the palace at this time who can influence the situation, it is undoubtedly this general, but it is a pity that he has offended him because of Concubine Li, otherwise this matter can save a lot of trouble, Qin Zhao couldn't help but pause when he thought about it: "But Concubine Li invited?" ”
Zhang Dequan shook his head secretly: "The slave doesn't know, but it doesn't look like it, Concubine Li has already rushed over from Liyun Hall when she got the news, and she thinks it's earlier than Your Majesty arrived!" ”
Qin Zhao nodded uncomfortably, Zhang Dequan looked at the queen's palace and reminded in a low voice: "The slave thinks that the queen's mother's illness is really strange, and it looks like someone has made a move!" ”
Qin Zhao glanced at him and said in a solemn tone: "It's not as good as a day in this palace now, tomorrow you take the secret guards to clear the palace, don't let people find out, as for the queen's palace, don't worry about it!" ”
Zhang Dequan cautiously put the lantern close to the ground, and the dim light made Qin Zhao's face a little gloomy: "If you have anything to say, just say it!" After following me for so many years, I will not blame you for some trivial things. ”
Zhang Dequan smiled: "Your Majesty, the slave really doesn't understand, obviously the queen's mother has a problem with anyone with a discerning eye, why doesn't Your Majesty investigate it thoroughly!" There won't be any big deal this time, what will happen next time, it's better to find out once and for all! ”
Qin Zhao shook his head and still didn't let go: "This matter is not so simple, now that the general has come after getting the news, Concubine Li can't care about my grounding, which completely shows that this matter is not theirs, but this is also an opportunity, as long as I don't let go, they have to be vigilant everywhere, but it is much faster than we come ourselves." ”
Zhang Dequan shivered, and Qin Zhao turned his head to look at him funny: "What, I'm scared?" ”
Zhang Dequan squeezed out a smile: "How come?" The slave was shocked by His Majesty's strategy, so it seems that the Queen Mother has done His Majesty a great favor. ”
Qin Zhao knew the meaning of this sentence when he heard his words, he understood that Zhang Dequan thought that he was calculating the queen to make room for Concubine Li by the way, and he was in a bad mood at the moment, and he was inexplicably a little weak-hearted, but he didn't want to explain anything!
