Chapter 50: Rebuke
The people who have been on errands in Yanxi Palace for the past two days have all been very energetic.
The door of the room was open, and several palace maids sat around waiting for the lamp. The northwest wind blew for a day, blowing the whistle tiles on the eaves and whimpering, like someone who had been wronged but did not dare to cry. The clouds were heavy, the twilight was vast, and before the hour came, the room was already dark, and only shadows could be seen to make an outline. On the top of the eaves, the snow has accumulated a thick layer, and the wind occasionally lifts a corner, and the snow foam flies on the ridge of the roof, jumping over the horns raised by the top of the mountain, revealing the mottled bright yellow and emerald green glazed tiles below.
Cuizhi opened the cotton curtain and entered the door, put down the paste in his hand, held his hands and sighed, stomped his feet and rushed inside, "Who is on duty in front of you today?" Just now the Ministry of Internal Affairs came to deliver medicine, seeing that the door pair was blown crooked by the wind, and no one answered, I hurriedly agreed, climbed up to straighten it, and a few pieces of Changxin paper were about to blow the horns, so I hurried to paste it again. "Cuizhi is the most serious on duty. She came in, and a few of the people around the brazier made way for a place.
"The master has been sick for the past few days, and the corners of his mouth are blistering, who is so ignorant of life and death, and still running blindly when he is on duty? I bumped into it and supported it. Be careful, don't make yourself uncomfortable. Cuizhi didn't forget to ask again. In the past few days, I don't know how many times I have said these words, but I still have to go wrong.
Shunzi was roasting her hands around the brazier, her face was baked red by the charcoal fire, and she hurriedly responded, "Aunt Cuizhi, I was on duty, just inside Aunt Rong called to send a letter to the queen's master, I went to run and came back, and the person froze into an ice lump, so I came in to roast." Isn't there still Xiao Anzi outside? ”
Rongzi is the aunt in charge of Yanxi Palace, and Cuizhi is a second-class aunt, Rongzi has been busy inside these days, and Cuizhi has taken care of the outside.
Cuizhi sighed, covered her ears with her freshly baked and slightly hot hands, and chirped, "Not here then?" As long as there is an errand, it is not there! Look, if the reward is released, it will run faster than anyone else! And they are all waiting, all in a hurry, I can't take care of this journey, and when the mother is safe, I will settle accounts with you one by one! ”
Junko flattered her and brought her a cup of tea, "Auntie drink some hot tea, warm and warm." Hey, who said it wasn't, I still think that this year's master is the most favored, let's follow it to please more, last year I also rubbed a silver coin of two taels at the little master of the concubine! This year, I'm so busy that I'm about to boil into a red-eyed chicken, and I haven't even caught a shadow. Auntie, look, I haven't slept for a few days and nights. ”
Shuangxi, the palace maid who was waiting for the hot water, was listless and slowly rubbed her braids on the ear, "Sensei said that I gave a reward, so I just sent the court to our palace, and I don't count on anything else." As long as I can eat the pot tonight, I haven't even eaten dumplings for the New Year. When I was at home, the family was reunited and made dumplings, alas, now I want the taste of dumplings. ”
After entering the palace, he couldn't return home for at least eight or nine years after leaving the palace. It's also normal for people to be homesick during the New Year, that is, if you can't go back, that dumpling is a thought. Her words aroused everyone's hearts, and she was silent. There was no one in Shunzi's house for a long time, and the eunuch entered the palace, and he didn't expect to go out in this life, so he was impatient for others to mention this stubble, at this time, he smiled and ridiculed Shuangxi and said, "Don't count on it, it's probably still porridge at night." The master is not good, you are just thinking about drinking wine and eating meat, and you have no conscience. ”
Shuangxi was annoyed, and wanted to scratch the shunzi, but he heard someone outside come to lift the curtain, "It's time to hold the lamp, hurry up, long live the master, the master will come in a while!" When the black light is blind, look at the loss of your heads! A group of people were busy going to get the guys, and the palace maids held a long pole in their hands, carrying a glass wind lamp, one by one, to the top of the lamp, and hung it on the iron hook. The lanterns lit up next time were connected to the other palaces, and the lanterns on the ground and the lanterns under the corridor formed an orange fire dragon, coiling the East Sixth Palace in a whole circle.
As soon as the eunuchs clapped their hands outside, the emperor's shoulders arrived. Everyone was busy kneeling at the dripping place under the porch. The emperor hurried and went straight into the dormitory.
This is the third time I've come here.
The concubine's little face was pinched, the originally small face was pointed, the water color was gone, dry and wrinkled, and it was yellow.
The emperor became even more agitated. It's been three days, and there has been no improvement at all, but people are wilting and losing their spirits.
"Where's the Imperial Doctor?! Didn't you say three days would be fine? When the emperor arrived at the conservatory, he saw the queen who had arrived in a hurry.
The imperial doctor is naturally there, trembling and waiting for the above to ask.
Imperial Physician Chen only took the lead and kowtowed to the ground, the words were said by himself, but he was not sure, it was difficult to say whether this life was still in his hands at this time.
Fu Lun came with the emperor, and he was also waiting outside to see the excitement at this time. How could he leave such a big thing alone. It is our duty to serve the master. At this time, listening to the emperor's angry voice, I knew that I might be unlucky today. The concubine has always been bad, and the imperial doctor is the first to bear the brunt.
During the Chinese New Year this year, even I was cautious and didn't dare to be careless. In case the master asks for something, and the internal affairs government does not provide it in time, he will also be implicated. He stood under the dripping water on the porch outside the window, a little worried, and thought about his errand, and felt that there was nothing wrong, so he turned his ears sideways and listened intently to the movement inside.
Suddenly remembered that if the concubine couldn't escape this catastrophe, she would have to prepare for the future. Foran was holding his heart and playing a small drum in his heart.
There are also ready-made coffins in the treasury, which were originally prepared for the noble old lady. It was a good old golden silk coffin, which had been prepared since ten years ago, and it was painted once a year, and it was painted more than a dozen times, and the old lady was stunned and alive. If it doesn't work, I will give this coffin to the concubine for use first, anyway, this time the concubine took the fetus away, and the emperor must be very sad. Your old lady, let's touch a pair of boards again. She doesn't need to complain, this is her great fortune, is it possible that she still grabs the coffin board with others.
Inside, I only heard Imperial Doctor Chen kowtowing, even calling himself incompetent, the emperor kept scolding angrily, and after listening to it for a while, the corners of Fu Lun's mouth were slightly raised, pinching the jade wrench on his thumb, listening to the excitement.
The queen saw that she was going to make a fuss, and at this time, killing the imperial doctor could not make the concubine get better and give birth to a child, and the emperor's temper was too impatient.
She said softly, "Master, don't be angry, your dragon body is important." Under the New Year's Day, those who fight and kill are also not good for the concubines and children. The slave thought that they would not dare not be unsatisfied when they found out the happy letter of the concubine. I'm afraid that there is something strange, let them calm down and think carefully before thinking about it. ”
When the emperor heard that it was bad for the child, he came back to his senses. Pregnancy is a happy event, and you can't hear about such a thing as killing your head. It's easy to kill people, if you really kill these people, where can you find someone to treat his concubine for a while?
The queen turned her head to look at Imperial Physician Chen kneeling on the ground, and felt a sense of weakness. "Tell me, what's the matter? Is it a lack of people or a lack of medicine? said that it would work for three days, but what went wrong was there, and I carefully pondered the reply. At this time, you are still so secretive, do you still want the head on your shoulder? ”
