Chapter 22: She's Not a Rice Bucket

"Your Majesty, the concubines are worried about you." The queen's face changed.

"Get out of here!" Emperor Yuanqing was a little impatient.

Father-in-law Lu hurriedly came over and said with a smile: "Queen Mother, the slave will take care of the emperor, Niangniang will go back to the palace to rest first, don't be tired." ”

glanced at Xia Jinse again, and the queen went out unwillingly.

Xia Jinse seems to have discovered some secret, is the relationship between the emperor and the queen not good? How could this be.

In the courtyard, when Queen Xiao just came out, the concubines immediately surrounded her.

"Queen Mother, how is the emperor?"

"Then Miss Xia is really a doctor, and she can treat injuries?"

"The emperor is not seriously injured, but I am worried about the dead, can the concubines go in to see the emperor?"

Empress Xiao frowned, she was unhappy, but she didn't want people to know that she was kicked out, so she only said: "The emperor is fine, he just needs to recuperate, and no one is allowed to disturb the emperor without permission." Let's go back and read more scriptures, copy some scriptures, and pray for the emperor. ”

The emperor didn't allow her to serve, and she couldn't let others go, so she stayed in her palace honestly.

Concubine Yu said lightly: "The concubine naturally won't bother the emperor, but it's useless to read scriptures and copy scriptures, if God wants to bless you, the emperor won't be assassinated." ”

"What do you mean?" Empress Xiao's face sank.

"What does it mean to dare a concubine? It's that the emperor was suddenly assassinated, and the real culprit behind the scenes must be found out as soon as possible, the queen, isn't what the concubine said right? Concubine Yu looked directly at Empress Xiao with deep meaning in her eyes.

"The emperor has already asked the Nine Princes to investigate who is behind the scenes, no matter who it is, no matter how deep it is, it can't be hidden." Empress Xiao also said meaningfully, looking at Concubine Yu with a hint of imperceptible vigilance in her eyes.

The Manchu Dynasty is civil and military, who doesn't know that only the eldest prince and the second prince can become the crown prince?

Now that the emperor has been assassinated, it is even more necessary to establish the candidate for the crown prince, and who is the main messenger behind this assassination is almost ready to be revealed.

Queen Xiao was originally the honor of the harem, and it stands to reason that her son is the eldest son and should be the crown prince, but in the past few years, the emperor has been more and more favored by the jade concubine, so that the second prince of the jade concubine has also begun to emerge, and has the momentum to keep pace with the eldest prince.

The DPRK and China are secretly divided into two factions, and they do not give in to each other, and they all want to fight for this merit from the dragon, and now the assassination suddenly happens, which can't help but make people not suspect anything.

When the other concubines saw that Empress Xiao and Concubine Yu were facing each other, they immediately stopped talking.

Neither of these two is the master they can afford to mess with, so it's better to talk less.

The intrigue outside, Xia Jinse naturally didn't know, she finally changed the medicine for Emperor Yuanqing, and prescribed some internal medicine to Gonggong Lu, telling them one by one which medicines to take when, how much to take, what to taboo and so on.

"This is medicine?" Grandpa Lu looked at the various small pills in the bottle and was very surprised.

He followed Emperor Yuanqing, and he was also well-informed, but it was the first time he had seen this kind of 'medicine'.

It's so small, it's like sugar.

Xia Jinse said seriously: "This is a refined medicine, which is easy to take and has good efficacy." She peeked at Lan Beichen as she spoke, he didn't react at all, and he didn't seem surprised at all what she took out.

When she was on Qingyang Mountain, she wondered about his receptivity, obviously it was the first time she saw these strange things, but she didn't ask much at all. Even now, even if she was treating Emperor Yuanqing's injuries, he wouldn't find these things weird.

What a rare person!

Yuan Xiao was very curious, and stared at the medicine in Gonggong Lu's hand for a long time, looking like he wanted to ask but couldn't speak.

When it was Emperor Yuanqing's turn to take the medicine, the master asked while sending the medicine to his mouth: "Don't chew, just eat?" ”

"You don't have to chew, it's going to be bitter." Xia Jinse said.

But it was too late to say this, Emperor Yuanqing's mouth made a rattling sound, he had already changed his face, and he almost spit it out when he opened his mouth.

"Your Majesty, don't vomit, this is medicine." Xia Jinse hurriedly said.

"Water Water Water ......"

"Your Majesty, water!"

Emperor Yuanqing snatched the cup and gulped a few mouthfuls, and finally swallowed it with the dregs, but his face was still wrinkled into a rag, and his teeth were clenched.

It's so unpalatable! He had never taken such bitter medicine.

"Why didn't I know there was such a medicine? It looks good, but it tastes stinky and bitter, and it was also taught to you by military doctors? ”

"Yes." Xia Jinse sneered.

"Which military doctor is so powerful? It seems like I should transfer him back. ”

Why do you think Emperor Yuanqing has the intention of revenge? Do you want to transfer the military doctor back to punish the crime, blaming him for refining the medicine that almost killed him?

Xia Jinse didn't dare to say in detail, so he could only bow his head and not answer.

"Miss Xia also gave me a blood transfusion yesterday, this technique is also magical, and it was also taught by a military doctor?"

"Yes......"

"Judge Xiao, do you know this thing?" Emperor Yuanqing gestured to the blood pressure monitor next to him.

Xiao Yuan judged: "Back to the emperor, Wei Chen saw it for the first time, and he didn't recognize it. ”

Emperor Yuanqing: "Miss Xia, this is also made by a military doctor?" ”

Xia Jinse: "......"

Do you want to ask so carefully? If she was suspicious, she said directly, and she would consider whether to recruit or not. But if you recruit it, you are afraid that you will be considered an alien, and you will be tortured and served, and you may even be burned to death, but if you don't recruit, you can only end up resisting and being strict, and you will sit in prison.

Just when Xia Jinse was upset, Lan Beichen spoke: "Your Majesty, the little eunuch yesterday, the person behind it has found out. ”

When Emperor Yuanqing heard this, he immediately shifted his attention: "Who sent it?" ”

He just asked, and then said, "Father-in-law Lu, take Miss Xia to eat and prepare more." ”

This kind of secrecy, Xia Jinse is not interested, and he does not dare to be interested. Finally Lan Beichen helped her out of the siege, she breathed a sigh of relief and followed Gonggong Lu towards the side hall.

When she entered the palace early in the morning, she hadn't eaten yet, and she had been delayed for half a day for Emperor Yuanqing's follow-up, Xia Jinse was really hungry.

But when the meals were served, Xia Jinse was stunned.

There are eight bowls filled with all kinds of millet porridge, pastries, chicken noodle soup, puff pastry, etc. The fragrance is fragrant and appetizing, but it's too much, isn't it? I'm afraid it's not feeding pigs?

Xia Jinse asked carefully: "Father-in-law Lu, are these for me to eat alone?" ”

Father-in-law Lu said with a smile: "Yes, didn't the emperor just say, prepare more?" There were four dishes last night, Miss Xia hasn't eaten enough, right? ”

Xia Jinse fainted...... She somehow carried the reputation of a rice bucket?

Those dishes are really small, just enough, right? But now she can't finish eight kinds of breakfast!

……

In the side room of the warm pavilion, Emperor Yuanqing listened to Lan Beichen's words and looked blank.

After a long time, he sighed: "I didn't expect it to be her ......"

After so many years, she still hasn't gotten rid of her hatred, and she has always wanted him to die. He also forgot that yesterday's special day was the day he broke with her.

No wonder she chose to do it yesterday, because she wanted him to repay the debt that he couldn't solve in this life, right?

"Your Majesty, do you want to do it?" Lan Beichen asked.

Do it, is he willing to do it?

If she was really to blame, she would have died ten years ago.

Emperor Yuanqing closed his eyes and sighed: "No need, just treat this incident as if it didn't happen, and end it as soon as possible." ”

Lan Beichen said: "Okay, then I'll arrange it casually, just to knock some people." ”

Grandpa Lu just came in, and his heart jumped when he heard the words, oh no, someone is going to be unlucky...... He could only pretend not to hear, and came over and whispered: "Your Majesty, Miss Xia said that she can't finish eating, can she take it back?" ”

Emperor Yuanqing waved his other hand weakly: "Let her be." ”

When Xia Jinse took the carriage and returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, although Xia Yanxiu had already prepared in her heart, she still didn't expect that she would bring back the reward of Emperor Yuanqing.

When he watched the little eunuchs who came with him holding trays one by one and bringing in the rewards one by one, he was stunned, unable to tell whether he was surprised or delighted.

Lu Wang smiled and said, "Congratulations to Xia Xiang, Miss Xia saved the emperor, and the emperor is no longer in trouble." No, there are so many things to reward Miss Xia. ”

He personally carried a red food box in his hand, handed it to Aunt Yao, who greeted him, and said, "This is the food that the emperor specially asked the imperial dining room to make, and I knew that Miss Xia liked to eat, so I asked her to bring some back." ”

Even the Imperial Diet is available?!

Xia Yanxiu was already shocked and didn't know what to say, so he only said in a loud voice: "Thank you for the emperor's grace." ”

He stared at these rewards, there were jewelry, ornaments, satin cloth, and even the four treasures of the study, all of which were practical. Especially the imperial dim sum, which is only the emperor's most favored minister, can only be rewarded when he is in the best mood.

"There is Father-in-law Lao Lu, go back and help me thank the emperor. Uh......" As soon as Xia Jinse finished speaking, she almost burped, and she quickly covered her mouth and bowed her head.

I almost died of what I ate just now, but I didn't dare to waste it, so I was cheeky and said that I would bring the rest back, but I didn't expect Emperor Yuanqing to agree and reward so much.

It's okay to let her father see it, and dare to punish her with a cold face.

Sending off Gonggong Lu, Xia Yanxiu is no longer the serious face of yesterday.

"Jinse, did you really cure the emperor?"

"Father still doesn't believe it?"

Xia Yanxiu was choked by Xia Jinse's rhetorical question, but no matter how unhappy she was, she couldn't be angry with her casually. Otherwise, Xia Jinse will be summoned in the palace tomorrow, what if she deliberately misses a sentence?

Today, the emperor rewarded these, but he didn't give him a hint, don't be too harsh on his eldest daughter.

The more Xia Yanxiu thought about it, the more he felt that Emperor Yuanqing's move had a deep meaning, originally Xia Jinse was one of the candidates for the future princess, although she was disfigured and gave the emperor a bad first impression, but she couldn't stand her later merit!

Or a life-saving grace!

What if the emperor intends to make her the princess?

It seems that his plan needs to be adjusted, and he will be ready with both hands.

Just as Xia Yanxiu was planning, he didn't expect that two days later, the Prime Minister's Mansion ushered in a distinguished guest. The second prince, Lan Hongzhuo, came in person, and also brought the reward of the Jade Concubine, saying that he would thank Xia Jinse in person.

In the Wind Lotus Garden, Xia Mengyao was excited: "Quick, comb my hair and change my clothes, the second prince is here!" I have to dress up beautifully to make the second prince like it. ”
