"Oh, I heard that the sixth child's face was cured by you?" The emperor asked with a smile.

"It's a people's daughter, I didn't know the status of the six princes at that time, but I still dared to do it." Zhang Youtao cautiously replied.

"You girl, you don't leak a drop of water." The emperor looked at her with a smile, "If you don't know how your family affairs are, take it out and say that you are a noble girl, I'm afraid some people will believe it." ”

Zhang Youtao's heart couldn't help but rise again, how can you answer this? Is this ironic? Or is it just chatter?

"Back to my father's words, this is because the sons have long identified Miss Zhang in their hearts, so they found a grandmother who went out of the palace to follow her early and teach her royal etiquette." Without waiting for her to speak, Jiang Yiling directly took the words.

"You kid, you know that the first strike is the strongest, and you set people early, but you have a bit of my style of acting, not bad." The emperor didn't want to delve into anything, and smiled and followed Jiang Yiling's words.

Concubine Xian Guifei followed and joked a few words, this scene seemed to be a father's kindness and filial piety, and he was happy, but Zhang Youtao only felt that she was in a cold sweat, and she had to think about it for a long time when she said a word, for fear that she would do something wrong.

When she stepped back, Zhang Youtao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but she didn't want the virtuous concubine to come out with her.

The three of them walked together awkwardly for a distance, Zhang Youtao looked at the mother and son left and right, hesitated, and chose to be silent.

"Yiling, you go back first, this palace is Miss Zhang talking." It was the virtuous concubine who spoke first to break the silence.

"Youtao is a civilian woman, she doesn't know the etiquette, I'm afraid she will bump into her mother." Jiang Yiling didn't think about it, so he directly opened his mouth and refused.

Concubine Xian smiled bitterly, "Don't worry, this palace will not do anything to hurt her, it is not easy for our mother and son to get together, this palace will not do what you hate." ”

At this point, ordinary people should not be able to say anything about refusal, but Jiang Yiling is not an ordinary person," the mother concubine laughed, and the sons didn't dare to think about it, but the young peach didn't know how to be polite, and the sons didn't dare to let her go. ”

Zhang Youtao could feel the embarrassment of the virtuous concubine, hesitated, she stepped forward and said, "The folk girl sends the maiden back to rest, the six princes still have important things to do, you might as well go and get busy first, and wait for the folk girl to have dinner with you in the evening." ”

Jiang Yiling frowned and looked at Zhang Youtao, and after seeing her nodding to him to indicate that she was okay, he hesitated and relieved, "Okay, then you must be careful, don't be rash and impulsive, don't bump into the concubine or other nobles." ”

When she said this, Zhang Youtao had the heart to choke him, but when she saw the virtuous concubine on the side, she still held back the words that came to her mouth.

"I see, you can go." She had a smile on her face, but there was a hint of threat in her tone.

Jiang Yiling didn't say anything more, turned around and strode out of here.

"Alright, concubine, let's go." Zhang Youtao said with a well-behaved smile.

Concubine Xian chuckled and nodded, her gentle and demure appearance caused Zhang Youtao to look at her several times.

I don't know, how could such a weak woman give birth to a son with such a tricky and mean character as Jiang Yiling, if there was no thing on his face, would Jiang Yiling be such a character?

Zhang Youtao couldn't help but make up for Jiang Yiling, a polite gentleman, in her own brain, and finally found that that person was suitable for arrogance, and if he changed his personality, he would no longer be him.

"Can you tell me how Yiling found you? The palace has lived in seclusion for many years, and I don't know a lot of things. When she arrived at Concubine Xian's residence and waved off all her subordinates, she spoke softly.

Zhang Youtao, who looked at her with a little cautious tentative eyes in her eagerness, softened for a while, although the mother and son couldn't see each other all year round, but she really cared about Jiang Yiling.

"Guifei Niangniang, sit down, I'll talk to you slowly." Zhang Youtao helped her sit down, and after thinking about it for a while, she talked about the previous incident, and even focused on Jiang Yiling's state when she almost died.

A lot of things, if you don't say it, others will never know, the crying child has candy to eat, she doesn't want to play any drama that I hide from you and don't let you worry about me.

Everyone knows that feeling sorry for this man is what Zhang Youtao wants to do now.

"My son, over the years, has really suffered." Listening to the whole part, the virtuous concubine had tears in her eyes, and she choked up and said this.

Zhang Youtao smiled lightly, "Those have passed, and now he is doing well." ”

Concubine Xian quickly restrained her emotions, and patted Zhang Youtao's hand with emotion, "It's his blessing that my son can meet such a good girl as you." ”

"But, Niangniang, the folk girl has no family status, I'm afraid I can't give any help to the six princes, he is actually more suitable to find a girl from an official eunuch family." She said tentatively.

"You're wrong." Concubine Xian Guifei didn't want to think about it, so she directly shook her head and vetoed, "Yiling is not suitable for any powerful young lady, he is in an embarrassing situation, if he doesn't meet you, it is more suitable for him to live alone." "Ivy

Zhang Youtao listened for a moment, "This? The folk girl didn't understand. ”

"Now he, any suspicion is fatal." Concubine Xian said this paradoxically.

"Okay, let's not talk about this, this palace called you over, mainly to ask you a few words." She directly changed the topic, "The water in this palace is deep, if you are not careful, you may be doomed, Yiling can't always be by your side to protect you, you have to learn to protect yourself." ”

This advice makes sense, Zhang Youtao nodded thoughtfully, if someone had told her this earlier, maybe there wouldn't have been so much trouble before.

"Although you live in seclusion, but you and the imperial concubine and queen's entanglement, this palace also knows a little bit or two, although there is no way to say that you can be protected from harm for the time being, but you still have to try your best." Although Concubine Xian's expression did not change, that look made people feel a chill.

"What do you mean?" Zhang Youtao asked tentatively.

Concubine Xian chuckled and opened the food box on the table, "This is the dim sum brought by the imperial concubine, in order to show her generosity, she specially gave a share to each master who came with her." ”

Zhang Youtao looked at her a little blankly, as if she didn't understand what she meant.

"Although there are many people, and if something goes wrong, they can't bite her directly, but the queen has been eyeing her, if there is a chance, these two will definitely make a big fuss, but this is the provincial capital of the autumn hunt, and I am afraid that if there is a trouble, I will lose the royal face." Speaking of this, the virtuous concubine looked at Zhang Youtao meaningfully.

After making up the picture in his head, Zhang Youtao followed in a low voice, "In order to save the royal face, the best way to deal with it is to cover up this matter, send the relevant people to the palace, and then send it down." ”

"Sure enough, it's a smart kid." Concubine Xian said and directly picked up a piece of pastry and wanted to stuff it into her mouth.

Zhang Youtao hurriedly raised her hand to stop, "Niangniang, don't, you have injured 1,000 enemies and 800 yourself." ”

"The palace has just been canonized, and if something happens at this time, it can have the best effect, you know the reason, why stop it, you just need to help the palace find the imperial doctor as soon as possible, and the palace will be fine." Concubine Xian chuckled and patted her hand, as if she had made up her mind.

"No, no, this, poisoning is okay, but you don't need to play really." Zhang Youtao hurriedly explained.

This tongue twister seems to be a good word, and the virtuous concubine is a little confused, "What does this mean?" ”

Zhang Youtao took off the pastry she was holding and pushed the food box far away, "I'm a doctor, I can save people and poison, it's absolutely okay to pretend to be sick and poisoned, you don't need to eat real poison, hurt your body." ”

As she spoke, she put the pastry under her nose and sniffed it gently, her originally casual expression gradually becoming serious.

"Niangniang, please ask the maid to call Jiang Yiling over, be quick." After repeatedly confirming what kind of poison it was, she said in a serious tone.

Although I don't know what the reason is, looking at Zhang Youtao's serious expression, Concubine Xiangui didn't say a word and directly opened her mouth to order.

The maid's words were unclear, as soon as she heard that there was an emergency, Jiang Yiling rushed towards the imperial concubine's residence, and the cruel appearance made the maid afraid for a while.

Opened the curtain and went in, and when he saw the two women sitting there unscathed, Jiang Yiling's heart relaxed.

Coughing lightly to hide his embarrassment, he stepped forward and saluted the virtuous concubine, and then asked, "I don't know why the mother concubine is in a hurry to find her son." ”

"It's me, Jiang Yiling, this pastry is poisonous, it's a Tibetan sea flower, the virtuous concubine said, this is the pastry distributed by the imperial concubine, I need you to arrange someone to secretly steal the pastries of other masters, maybe this is a breakthrough." Without waiting for the imperial concubine to speak, Zhang Youtao directly took over the words.

Hearing this, Jiang Yiling's expression also became serious, "It's a Tibetan sea flower again, are you sure?" ”

"There's no mistake, I've been working on this thing lately, and it couldn't be clearer." Zhang Youtao responded without hesitation, soaking in the pharmacy every day is not a joke.

"I'll arrange for someone to do it, you be careful in everything." Jiang Yiling instructed on his lips, but his heart was full of doubts, this matter is really becoming more and more elusive, and these people who were poisoned don't seem to have any connection.

Concubine Xian listened to it, hesitated for a moment before asking, "What will this poison behave in?" ”

"If the dose is small, there will be loss of appetite in the early stage, sleep time will be longer, and if the dose is large, the human body will quickly fail and die, and enter a state of suspended animation. Zhang Youtao was thinking about things in her heart, and she answered the words of the virtuous concubine.

"Is there a big dose in this pastry?" Concubine Xian then asked.

Zhang Youtao pinched the pastry and sniffed it again, and then replied, "It's not big, it should be going to continue to eat." ”

"Perhaps, this palace has been eaten a long time ago, and this is not impossible." Concubine Xian chuckled.

It's not impossible, Zhang Youtao hurriedly turned her head and grabbed the hand of the virtuous concubine, and quietly took the pulse for her.
