Chapter 94: Make Up Your Mind
Li Shenlan's words pierced Yin Chen's heart like nails, and he didn't reply for a long time. Li Shenlan only acquiesced to everything, and indifferently tilted his head aside, which was even more ironic for Yin Chen. In the next second, I saw that he suddenly became ruthless, his body suddenly sat up, his hands moved forward, and he pinched Li Shenlan's chin precisely and forcefully, forcing her to look directly at him.
"You're hurting me."
Yin Chen didn't relax or even pushed harder, but in a moment, his skin that was originally as white as jade was pinched red by Yin Chen. Li Shenlan frowned painfully, but the frost-like indifference in her eyes never changed.
"The Lu clan has been imprisoned by me, how long are you going to make trouble!"
Yin Chen roared, it could be seen that the skin on the tips of his fingers was already very red, and his body was unconsciously relieved after all.
Li Shenlan looked at the man in front of him who was almost angry at this time like a clay sculpture wooden man, and this reaction was not only a mockery for Yin Chen, but also like a slap in the face.
"Is the concubine making trouble? Why did Lu Xin come out of the cold palace and why did he appear in my cell with poison, Your Majesty, do you really know anything? ”
Li Shenlan's tone was light, and the sentences seemed to float to Yin Chen's ears, and the instinctive Yin Chen let go of his hand and sat there in place. For a moment, he seemed to see Dong Siwan, and she looked at herself indifferently like Li Shenlan, telling him that she knew everything.
Yes, they know everything......
Yin Chen looked at Li Shenlan, who was indifferent on the bed, and felt as if someone had torn off the fig leaf for a moment, and he didn't hide it. In the next second, Yin Chen got out of bed directly, hurriedly put on his boots and walked out of the Lilan Hall as if he was fleeing. Li Shenlan just looked at his fading voice, and the bitter smile overflowed into a voice, and the bitterness lasted for a long time.
The moonlight outside the house sprinkled in, like warm and cold, and it seemed so dazzling in the dark.
Is it hope? Li Shenlan looked at the beam of light, and only felt that it was just the last light before despair.
Yin Chen never came to the Lilan Hall again, and everyone knew that Lan Guifei had fallen out of favor again. However, this time, everyone in the palace dared to snub any errand in Lilan Palace, after all, Li Shenlan had fallen out of favor intermittently and won favor I don't know how many times, so naturally it was difficult to guarantee that she would not return to favor this time.
The days passed so peacefully for almost two months, during which Li Shenlan often heard that Yin Chen went to various palaces, and it was really rain and dew.
"Two days ago, the emperor just sealed a palace maid to make a promise, and early this morning there was a promotion to a nobleman. is really without the Queen Mother, he is becoming more and more unpresentable. ”
Concubine Xiang scolded angrily, she always felt that something was wrong, and now Yin Chen made her feel strangely tight, and she lived like a faint king. What made her feel even more terrible was that Li Shenlan really seemed to see it, no matter what she said about Yin Chen, she was indifferent. It's as if the two of them have never had any affection, and Yin Chen has never let her down.
"I heard that Bang Chun is going to give birth in a few days, do you really plan to go over and accompany her?"
"I'm also panicking in the palace left and right, even if it's good to accompany her in the past."
Concubine Xiang was a little helpless, Li Shenlan's stomach was only a month's thing, and she was really not at ease to let her run around. But as soon as she proposed to accompany her to the Qin Mansion, Li Shenlan directly refused.
"After Empress Rensi leaves, the big and small things in the harem will be handled by you, and these two Japan will make a lot of trouble for the emperor's change, and if you leave again, it will not be a mess of porridge?"
"Okay, anyway, I don't have the good luck of yours to go out if I want to. But it's not a problem that you're always bored in this palace, so it's okay to go out for a walk. When the time comes, I'll let Wen Po accompany you, and if something really happens, it's good to be in a hurry. ”
Li Shenlan didn't refuse, after all, Sheng Ping was born early, although it was because of the medicinal effect, it was difficult to guarantee that there would be no habitual premature birth.
Yin Chen didn't put his mind on Li Shenlan for a while, Li Shenlan only asked people to pass the word for himself and hurried out of the palace.
"Your Majesty, this Concubine Lan is also a little unruly, and it is really too much to leave the palace without consulting you about such a major event."
The one who spoke was the most favored newcomer Yuan Guiren in the past two days, who was originally a palace maid and served people, but he had a very good set. It's just that if the old people look at that face carefully, they will always look a little like Li Shenlan or Dong Siwan.
After all, because he is too favored, Yuan Guiren really thinks that he can still point fingers at the affairs of the harem. Moreover, Li Shenlan is a noble concubine, she is just a little nobleman, and she really dares to chew her tongue in front of the emperor, but she doesn't know that Yin Chen is angry about Li Shenlan's attitude for a while. Now that she was angry with what she said, she threw the wolf in her hand directly on Yuan Guiren, so frightened that she immediately knelt down, trembling and breaking out in a cold sweat.
"The concubine is also something you can discuss, get out!"
Where did Yuan Guiren know the reason for this, and when he saw that Yin Chen was angry, he hurriedly ran out. Yin Chen was even more angry when he saw that, and when he thought of Li Shenlan's attitude towards him, he was even more angry and threw all the things on the table to the ground.
"No, she doesn't look like anything but her face!" Yin Chen thought in his heart, and saw that there was still a handkerchief left by Yuan Guiren on the ground, so he gave an order directly in anger. So the grace of this noble Yuan came and went faster, but in a few days, he changed from a noble person to an official woman.
No one knows how the Yuan family made the emperor so angry, only that the Yuan family met a short-eyed dining room eunuch on the road after coming out of the Heart Cultivation Palace, and as soon as the two bumped into the basket of skinning knives that the eunuch was holding in his arms, they all flew to Yuan's body. There were wounds all over his body, and the most important one or two scratched Yuan's face. Because she fell out of favor and was unpleasant on weekdays, most of the people in the hospital were reluctant to come for treatment. Over time, Yuan's face was completely wasted, and he had been shrinking in the room on weekdays and didn't dare to show his head.
Li Shenlan, who stayed in the Qin Mansion, didn't know anything about the palace at all, and she was finally in a much better mood after accompanying Bang Chun in the past two days.
"Niangniang, I have been dreaming that I am sleeping well for the past two days, and suddenly this child falls to the ground, which scares me so much that I can't sleep every night."
Li Shenlan smiled a little helplessly, and knew in her heart that this was because of Bang Chun's nervousness.
"You just think about it day by day, you still have to react when this child really gives birth, how can you say that it falls off. By the way, yesterday I saw a good cloth shop on the other side of West Street, and I'll go over and take a look later. ”
"Then I'll go pack up, and we'll be on our way in a while......"
"No need, I just want to go and relax, your body is too heavy, so you can rest in the house. I'll just take a look, and I can't do it for an hour. ”
Bang Chun was still a little worried, but Li Shenlan was resolute, she couldn't say anything, plus her body was really lazy in the past two days, anyway, Luo Bai Jue was still behind, and Bang Chun finally agreed.
The bustle and prosperity of West Street is no worse than that of East Street, and the sound of selling and bargaining on the street comes and goes. However, most of the low-level families in Beijing live on West Street, so the things bought in the shops are also very simple, and even the surrounding air makes Li Shenlan feel a little more fireworks. There are very few official carriages coming in and out of West Street, so Li Shenlan's carriage caused quite a stir as soon as it arrived on the street, and people were speculating which nobles came out.
"Harvest autumn, let's get out of the car and take a walk, I look at them really uncomfortable, it's really uncomfortable to be watched all the way."
Harvest Qiu also felt the strong restraining gaze outside, and naturally responded, saying that because Li Shenlan wanted to come to Dongjie to Bangchun, the Qin Mansion specially prepared an inconspicuous carriage, but he didn't expect it to cause a lot of commotion. Li Shenlan ordered the groom to find an alley with no crowds to park, and then pulled Shuqiu to walk down the street, passing by a crowd of people, and from time to time he could hear them talking.
"I look like the carriage of the Qin Mansion."
"That Qin Mansion? Is it the one who is related to the concubine in the palace? ”
"It's not no, no, who else in this capital can have such a good style besides his family, I heard that Mrs. Qin and Concubine Lan are good sisters who marry Jin Lan......"
"That's the carriage of the Taiwei Mansion that you haven't seen, that's called grandeur and luxury."
"Eh, there is no Taiwei Mansion now, be careful not to be arrested and imprisoned as the rest of the Li family......"
A few people, you and I say that it is very lively, and for them, these are just words to chew on the root of the tongue after dinner. It's just that the speaker has no intention of listening, and Li Shenlan only feels that the world is impermanent, and the old man of the two dynasties, who once envied the world, is now a broken family, and even the common people have to sigh when they talk about it.
The two walked away again, but Li Shenlan suddenly said that she wanted to eat rock sugar gourds and asked Shuqiu to buy them, but Shuqiu, who was crowded with people, could only help Li Shenlan to stand in the alley on the side first, and then hurriedly went to sell rock sugar gourds. But what she didn't know was that as soon as she ran out with her front foot, Li Shenlan went out of the alley with a big belly on her back foot.
The beautiful woman with a big belly walked down the street, and even the most eye-catching thing was that people were talking about which son of a good family could marry this beautiful and delicate daughter-in-law. Along the way, people pointed and gossiped, and if it was replaced by the ladies in the real palace, I was afraid that they would have already wanted to find a crack in the ground to drill into. It's just that Li Shenlan used to live in the countryside before, and she didn't say that she was disgusted by such an atmosphere, but felt a little kind.
She walked into a pharmacy in a grand manner, and saw that the boss opened his mouth to ask for frankincense, salvia, and saffron.
At first, the boss only felt that he had met a wonderful pregnant woman, but after listening to what Li Shenlan reported, he was directly stunned.
"Girl...... Ah no, ma'am, these drugs are all sharp weapons for hurting the fetus, what are you doing with these when you are pregnant? ”
Li Shenlan seemed to know that this would be the case, and then slowly explained: "My cow is sick and not in good health, but at this time, I don't know which bison I have bred with and conceived a cub." My mother-in-law thought that if she didn't give birth, she could farm for a few more months and earn a few catties of white flour money, but if she gave birth to a cub, she was afraid that she would die. When the time comes, the beef will be unlucky, no one will buy it, and no one will be able to raise it without cows. So I thought about buying these medicines and adding them to its feed, and quietly wept. ”
The boss also felt justified when he heard it, but he just wanted to turn around and get the medicine but felt that it was wrong.
"Madam, these medicines you want are quite expensive medicinal materials, and if you use them for cattle, the effect of the medicine may not be achieved, isn't it a waste. Why don't I prescribe you a special abortion medicine for livestock, so that this cow cub can't give birth. ”
Li Shenlan shook her head with a smile, "Mr. misunderstood, there was also medicine for livestock at home, but I thought that the cow was already weak, and if I used such a rapid medicine, I was afraid that my body would not be able to stand it, so it was also contrary to what we thought at the beginning." Therefore, it is natural to use medicine for people to say that it is done, and it is also gentle and does not hurt the body. If it doesn't work out, then it means that the mother and son are in love, and it just follows its wishes. ”
The boss had never seen such a kind daughter-in-law, and he couldn't stop praising him for a while, and he was busy with his hands.
"It's three taels of silver, and since you're going back to give it to the cow, I've put twice as much medicine in it as usual. You must use it all at once when you go back, otherwise you will be punished if you are accidentally eaten. After the boss finished speaking, he deliberately looked at Li Shenlan's stomach, for fear that she would not be able to think about anything.
"Thank you."
Li Shenlan didn't care if she looked at it or not, she took the things and gave them the silver, and hurriedly went out and disappeared into the crowd. She had to get back to that alley before the harvest came back, and if she couldn't go back, she wouldn't find out where she was staying. Fortunately, the harvest was slow to buy, and she was unfamiliar with the road on West Street, so she waited around and around to return to the alley, and Li Shenlan had been standing there for a long time.
"Master, there are too many people on this road, if you still want to eat, why don't you go back to the house and ask someone to buy it? This person is crowded, and it would be terrible if he bumped into you. ”
The things that should be done have been done, and there is no need to stay here anymore Li Shenlan nodded, and got up and went back to the Qin Mansion.
"Niangniang, what are you buying, it smells weird."
"It's nothing, it's not good to sleep for the past two days, I bought some soothing herbs, and when I go back to the palace, soak my feet."
"If you find it difficult to sleep peacefully, why don't you try it today? If it's useful, it's good to give Sister Bang Chun a try. ”
Where can it be done, Li Shenlan was a little embarrassed by the stupid kindness of the harvest. Besides, if this thing is really used in the Qin Mansion, if something happens, Yin Chen will not let Qin Ye and his wife go.
"This thing may not be useful for Bangchun, I bought it because I used it, otherwise how dare I easily give myself medicine?"
After thinking about it carefully, the two of them chatted about whether they had a ride or not, and the carriage arrived at the gate of the Qin Mansion.
As soon as the two got out of the car, they saw the little man at the door rushing forward, and stammered: "Concubine Niangniang, my wife seems to be about to give birth, and we don't really know what to do when Wen Po is not in the house!" ”
