Volume 2 Heavenly Ladder Xi Fuyi Chapter 12 Xiao Gong (I)
The imperial study, which was originally specially used to review the chapters and discuss politics privately with the courtiers, was also found to contain poison in the ink prepared on the case!
Ji Shencai's expression that relaxed because of Mu Bi's slight words suddenly became fierce!
Rong Hu has always been calm, and after this time, he hid to the side without saying a word!
Mu Bi lowered her head slightly and was silent, her brows furrowed......
Under the short silence, the atmosphere in the hall was strangely tense, as if there was a string, which had been pulled to the extreme, and it only needed to be touched lightly to explode with a bang!
At this moment, a small chamberlain quickly turned out from behind the screen, his face was worried, and as soon as he turned out of the screen, he lifted his robe and knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, Nie Sheren is awake!" ”
Everyone sighed!
Ji Shen didn't have time to answer, so he stood up and walked quickly behind the screen!
Because this side hall is very close to the Dongnuan Pavilion, Ji Shen insisted on changing the place for reviewing the chapters from the imperial study to here, but it was also to call Nie Yuansheng to approve the chapters, so it was convenient for him to summon the palace concubines in the Dongnuan Pavilion as usual, so there was no bedding in the palace, but the emperor's couch was far wider than the usual one.
The people outside the hall heard the sound of the blue and white beauty breaking into the hall to check, and saw Nie Yuansheng fainting on the couch, knowing that he was Ji Shenxinchen, not to mention that there was no other place to place nearby, so he waited for Rong Huan to come to the couch for treatment, and after Ji Shen arrived, he only moved a screen next to him to come over for a while, and he couldn't wait to ask the reason on the spot.
Seeing that Ji Shen went to visit in person, Mu Bi pursed her lips slightly, turned her feet, and followed.
Behind the screen, he saw Nie Yuansheng lying on the couch, covered with a brocade quilt, his eyes had been opened, but his face was pale, frowning from time to time, as if he was resisting some pain, seeing Ji Shen coming over, he struggled for a while, as if he was about to get up and salute, but was stopped by Ji Shen waving his hand, and asked in a deep voice: "How are you now?" ”
Before Nie Yuansheng could answer, Ji Shen turned his head to look at Rong Huan, who also followed up, Rong Huan didn't talk nonsense, stepped forward and took a pulse, and sighed: "Back to Your Majesty, it's okay to give up people, it's just that your body is weak, you need to recuperate carefully for a few days, don't be tired!" ”
Ji Shen didn't want to think about it and instructed Zhuo Heng: "Go to the inner library and take the thousand-year-old blood ginseng and use it!" ”
Zhuo Heng carefully replied yes, and Nie Yuansheng said strongly: "Your Majesty, the thousand-year-old blood ginseng is too precious, and the minister is in the prime of life, so there is no need for this." ”
"You just have to use it!" Ji Shen said solemnly, "I am the Son of Heaven!" What do I want to reward you, who dares to talk more? ”
"Minister...... cough cough ......" Nie Yuansheng frowned, as if he was about to excuse himself, but after saying a word, he suddenly coughed, Rong Huan hurriedly instructed Zhuo Heng to hand over his medicine bag, took out the golden needle and pricked him a few times, Nie Yuansheng's face immediately flushed, and after a while, he relieved his breath and said with a wry smile, "The minister is incompetent, let Your Majesty worry about it!" ”
Fang Cai Lei Mo also said that he was incompetent, which only made Ji Shen more and more angry, if it weren't for Mu Biwei to ease up, he would have been killed on the spot, this would have Nie Yuansheng the same three words, but Ji Shen sneered from the bottom of his heart: "Yuansheng is to prevent disasters for me, if it weren't for this, it would be me who is lying on the couch now!" How can a loyal courtier be so humble? The huge Xuanshu Palace, the palace people are like clouds, the Manchu Dynasty is civil and military, everyone keeps saying that they want to share their worries for me and protect the community, but they don't want me to live in the emperor's palace, and they still encounter this matter! If you often go back and forth between the inner and outer courts, wouldn't you have gone to see the first emperor early! ”
Hearing Ji Shen's last sentence, everyone was shocked, except for Nie Yuansheng, who was unable to move on the couch, they all knelt on the ground and pleaded guilty in unison: "I am incompetent, please ask Your Majesty to surrender!" ”
Ji Shen ignored them, squinted his eyes and ordered: "Zhuo Heng, let someone open the palace gate, knock on Ganquan, and then send people all the way to pass on the left and right phases, Shangshu Ling, and all Shangshu into the palace!" ”
Zhuo Heng knew that tonight's wind and rain Cui Wei was inevitable, and he responded tremblingly, and was about to leave, but Nie Yuansheng's face changed, and he said sharply: "Slow!" ”
Without waiting for Ji Shen to speak, he turned to Ji Shen and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty will first make someone hide this matter, and Rong Chen will tell you alone!" ”
Although Ji Shen had always trusted him, he was also angry at this moment, and he brushed his sleeves and said angrily: "The dignified Son of Heaven was victimized by the Nine Emperors!" The innocent people of the close ministers are poisoned! What is there to hide from such a ridiculous thing! ”
"Your Majesty!" Nie Yuansheng sighed, "How can you not hate the people behind you when you die?" However, this matter is very important, and I beg Your Majesty to ask the ministers to plead alone for a while, and you will know that the loyalty of the ministers can be seen! ”
He previously insisted on mediating for Ji Shen in the court because of the cold, so that his condition worsened and he passed out in a coma, Ren Yangkuan personally visited the diagnosis and treatment, and rushed to the Xuanshu Hall to write for Ji Shen before he recovered, so he was invaded by the poison hidden in the ink on the imperial case, and now he pleaded earnestly, Ji Shen's face was depressed for a long time, and he gritted his teeth and said: "I will give you a pillar of incense time!" ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Nie Yuansheng's voice fell, and Mu Biwei had already bowed and said: "The concubine has retired, I hope Your Majesty will take care of your body, and I also wish Nie Sheren a speedy recovery!" ”
Nie Yuansheng replied weakly: "Minister Xie Xuanhui Niangniang Jiyan." ”
In the side hall, a group of people retreated with interest.
……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Out of the side hall, the oncoming cold wind was blowing, Mu Biwei couldn't help but shiver, Ah Shan hurriedly shook off the cloak and added it to her, and said in a low voice: "Niangniang, Wang Cheng will already be on the way to Hualuo Palace." ”
"Shen, this stupid woman, she can't speak, but wants to drag me into the water!" Mu Biwei's face was gloomy, and she said, "If it weren't for Daddy and eldest brother who were in the previous dynasty, it would not be appropriate to offend the Shen family, so I would have been able to take her life with Your Majesty's hand!" ”
"It's good to be able to borrow Zuo Zhaoyi's hand." Ah Shan said softly, "If there is a gap between the Qu family and the Shen family over this matter, it will be better for Ah Lang and Da Lang Jun to do things in the previous dynasty." ”
Mu Bi sighed slightly, and suddenly remembered something: "What about the little Gong family?" Why didn't you see her by His Majesty's side? ”
Ah Shan whispered: "The Shen family ran to the Dongnuan Pavilion so aggressively and openly wanted to compete for favor, how old is that little Gong and what has he seen?" Listening to the people who were waiting over there said that she was so frightened that she hid in the tent and trembled, Your Majesty was about to attack the Shen family, but her fate was good, Zhuo Heng found that Nie Sheren was in a coma here, and he didn't dare to delay, so he hurriedly went to report, His Majesty came in a hurry and didn't care about calling the little Gong family, and now I'm afraid that he is still in the Dongnuan Pavilion? ”
"Really?" Mu Biwei was thoughtful, and after a while, he said, "It won't be far from left and right, go over and take a look." ”
The people in the Xuanshu Palace, even Shen Shinu called her to the Dongnuan Pavilion, and naturally they didn't dare to stop Mu Xuanhui, who looked at her with a pleasant face but even Youzhaoyi was quite jealous.
Dongnuan Pavilion is also familiar to Mu Biwei, she took Ah Shan to the front of the pavilion, the palace people guarding the door were busy saluting, Mu Biwei said warmly, and said softly: "There are some things in the side of the palace, Your Majesty has been busy in the past, and the palace can't help anything, thinking that the little Gong family is serving Your Majesty for the past two days, it's a pity that Gong Shiwei has no children, and her sister is not used to the habits that she doesn't know in this palace?" Hongu took advantage of this meeting to come and have a look. ”
The palace people didn't dare to stop it, but because of the previous Shen family's incident, Ji Shen's attitude was obviously protecting the little Gong family, but they were also worried that Mu Biwei would embarrass her, so after thinking about it, he smiled and said cautiously: "Xuanhui Niangniang came to see Gong Niangzi in person, which is naturally Gong Niangzi's blessing and dignity, but it's just ...... When Shen Shinu came over, the commotion was a bit big, and Gong Niangzi was very frightened, so His Majesty didn't ask Gong Niangzi to follow when she left, and now she seems to be still crying inside, I'm afraid it's inconvenient to be a detective of Niangniang. ”
The words of the palace people were euphemistic, but they pointed out that the Shen family, who was also favored, had already come over to make trouble, and Ji Shen's attitude was biased towards Xiao Gong's, so I hoped that Mu Biwei could be afraid of Ji Shen's attitude.
"What you said, do you think our Xuanhui Niangniang is like that Shen's vinegar jar?" Because Mu Biwei tasted as a female official in the Xuanshu Palace, the two palace people in front of her were also old acquaintances, and Ah Shan didn't scold her, but just scolded with a smile, "Niangniang originally wanted to go back to the palace, thinking about Shen Shinu. There was such a fuss, even the mother stood in the corridor over there and heard it, don't be frightened by the Gong girl, Your Majesty may not have time to appease her tonight, so she kindly came over to comfort her a few words, so as not to be scared out of illness at a young age! ”
Ah Shan said this, and the two palace people had nothing to say, so they had to apologize: "Xuanhui Niangniang is magnanimous, Min Qingyi is not strange, the slaves and maids are also because of Shen Shinu, Xuanhui Niangniang is known as a virtuous person in the palace, and His Majesty also praises Niangniang for being considerate and gentle, but the slaves and maids are confused!" ”
Mu Bi smiled lightly and said, "In that case, why don't you open the door soon?" ”
When the two palace people were still waiting to go in and ask Xiao Gong to come out, they mentioned a few words to her by the way, but they didn't want Mu Biwei to give them this opportunity, but they wanted to go in directly to visit Xiao Gong, and when they saw this, they didn't dare to stop them very much, so they had to open the door and said loudly: "Xuanhui Niangniang, please come in!" ”
It's already late at night, and although Ji Shen is in a hurry in the East Warm Pavilion, the lights outside are still on, but the lights in the inner room are obviously extinguished.
Mu Biwei walked in the door and heard a cry from the inner room, full of grievances and fear.
She frowned unconsciously, thinking to herself that little Gong didn't know if she was crying until now, or did she start crying when she heard the sound of herself coming in?
"You stay outside, Ah Shan will accompany the palace in." Mu Biwei commanded.
The palace people didn't dare to disobey, and bowed their heads and said, "Yes!" ”
Mu Biwei raised her chin to Ah Shan, Ah Shan understood, took a lamp from the outside in his hand, lifted the tabernacle, and walked inside.
Because of hearing the sound and seeing the firelight, the crying in the inner room suddenly stopped, and a timid and even childish voice asked uneasily: "...... Who? ”
