Chapter 274: Temporary Evasion

Updated: >

Seeing that the thick black medicine came to his mouth, the bitter taste had not been eaten, but it had already caused the bitter taste of the saliva on the tip of Xiaoruo's tongue.

This time, Xiao Ruo directly stretched out his hand and pushed away the medicine bowl and said, "I just used the porridge, but I feel that I can't eat anything else now." Otherwise, you can leave the porridge and the decoction here, and I will use them when I have an appetite, and I think you have other things to do, so don't delay with me. ”

Fu'er still wanted to persuade a few words, but seeing that Xiao Ruo's eyes were full of sleepiness, she began to slowly close it with some malaise. No, Fu'er put down the medicinal soup, helped Xiao Ruo cover the corner, and said: "Auntie doesn't want to use it anymore, so let it go, but if my aunt is in better spirits later, it's better not to forget to use medicine, after all, good medicine is good for disease." ”

With that, Fu'er sighed and turned to leave the room. She only felt that Xiao Ruo's illness was a little dangerous this time, if she refused to take medicine well, maybe someone would report the matter, and her aunt couldn't even live in the single room of this Lan Xiao Palace, and she would definitely be sent out. The palace maid who was sick and didn't get well for a long time, and then was thrown to no one to fend for herself, is there still a few, but the one she met was so afraid of medicine that she didn't care about her body.

When he heard the sound of the door closing, Xiao Ruo, who was supposed to be resting on the bed, opened his eyes, and there was no sleepiness in his eyes at all. The look on her face was a little tired because of the pale color, but the clarity in her eyes made her look much more energetic.

It's not that she recklessly disregarded her life because of the bitter and unbearable smell of medicine, but she drank two pills, but her body became worse and worse, so what reason was there to continue to take it, maybe she would be in a coma for a few days

Xiao Ruo looked at the decoction not far away, it was still steaming, and the air was filled with a strong smell of medicine. Is it a coincidence or is there something wrong in it at all, Xiao Ruo's mind showed the seemingly kind face of Concubine Shu, but the meaning in her eyes was unknown.

It's not that she thinks too much, it's just that she thinks a little less in this harem, and there is an abyss behind her. That day, when she knew that Le'er's mother and daughter were dead, Xie Danniang had already torn her face. For them, she is just reluctant to kill, but not unable to kill. This killing is only a matter of time or time.

knew that there would be such a day, she should have learned a medical skill like Yichu, so that she could know if there was really that cat in this decoction, and whether someone really wanted to kill her in an inexplicable coma.

But even if she really let her know that there is a cat in this decoction, how can it be difficult for her to question the imperial doctor who treated her, or directly question Xie Danniang or her aunt, Concubine Shu

With a wry smile, Xiao Ruo closed his eyes. If you want to know if her health has deteriorated because of this potion, you will find out later

The sun had begun to set a little, and the sunlight that shone into the house was no longer the harsh light, but like a warm veil on the earth, it became much softer.

When Xiao Ruo woke up, he found that the dirty clothes on his body were already tightly attached to his skin, and his neck, torso, and armpits were even more drenched in sweat. Xiao Ruo breathed a deep sigh of relief, he felt that he had a low-grade fever when he was cold that day, and now he was sweating so hard, it should be good.

Remove your arms from the quilt and slowly close your fingers into a fist. Xiao Ruo felt that his strength had recovered a little, and he no longer needed someone to help him even get up like he did in the morning.

In this way, it shows that there is really something wrong with the "good medicine" that the imperial concubine "specially" ordered by the imperial concubine this night. They didn't dare to poison themselves all at once, arousing Lan Shikang's suspicions; didn't dare to kill herself openly, for fear that after she guessed it, she would go to Lan Shikang and tell her what they had done. Therefore, they thought that they would die on this inconspicuous wind and cold so secretly, that even if she wanted to do something, she would not have the strength to do anything at all.

Her eyes moved from the decoction to the bowl of clear porridge that had cooled, she had used half a bowl before, if she even had a problem with the clear porridge, then she should still be in a coma at the moment. remembered that when she pushed but didn't want to use the medicine just now, Fu'er didn't say anything, thinking that Concubine Shu and Xie Danniang shouldn't have thought about letting more people know what they did. Fortunately, Fu'er doesn't know anything.

"My aunt woke up early today." Xiao Ruo listened to the sound of pushing the door, and knew that Fu'er was coming again.

"I used your porridge before, but now I smell it, and my stomach starts to make trouble. You say, how can I not wake up in time" Facing a person who had not harmed himself, Xiao Ruo shook off some dark thoughts in his mind, and looked at Fu'er with a smile and quipped.

There was only a bowl of porridge and some side dishes in the tray in Fu'er's hand, and there was no soup used in the morning, obviously Xie Danniang and they thought that they should sleep hard for several days after drinking the medicine, so they only told Fu'er to fry the medicine once a day.

"Auntie, why haven't you drunk any of this medicine, how can you get better like this" Fu'er put down the tray and saw that the soup sent in the morning was still a full bowl, and the remaining half bowl of porridge had not been touched at all.

"I think your half bowl of porridge is much better than that decoction, look at me, I've slept for a long time, but it's much better" As he spoke, Xiao Ruo slowly got up from the bed.

Fu'er only praised Xiao Ruo, and when she looked at Xiao Ruo's face carefully, she found that Xiao Ruo's complexion was indeed much better than in the morning. Although it was still a little weak face, it was not as white and scary as before.

"Eh, how can this be," Fu'er said in surprise.

Xiao Ruo smiled meaningfully: "Where would I know why this is happening, just eat half a bowl of porridge and sleep up, it's already like this." Otherwise, how could I praise that porridge so much?"

Fu'er's eyes swept over the decoction, and she suddenly understood: "This imperial doctor is really incompetent, my aunt is just a small wind and cold, and she was cured of a serious illness by him." Wait for the slave maid to tell the imperial concubine Niangniang at this time for you, and see how Niangniang rectifies him."

Jiang Ruyue's death, although Fu'er was involved, she always thought that Xiao Ruo found out that Le'er had two hearts, and asked her to stare at Le'er and find out some news, but she didn't know anything else, and naturally she wouldn't know about the entanglement between Xiaoruo and Xie Danniang and Concubine Shu, so it was even more impossible to think of anything else. Only this time, it was the Tai Doctor who saw Xiao Ruo who had poor medical skills, or it was just a violation of Yang Feng Yin.

"Fu'er, it's good to listen to me" Xiao Ruo took Fu'er's hand and said: "You see that my body is getting better now, the decoction is not good, I don't eat it, I want to rest for a few days, and my body will be healed, so why bother the imperial concubine with such a trivial matter."

Fu'er's expression was a little indignant, and she said: "The imperial concubine praises her aunt a lot, if she knows, she must feel sorry for her aunt." That kind of quack doctor should let the imperial concubine Niangniang arrest him, so as not to harm others in the future. ”

Xiao Ruo shook his head slightly and said: "As soon as the queen died, the affairs in the harem should have been handled by the mother herself, but the emperor took pity on the imperial concubine Niangniang who was pregnant, and it was not appropriate to work too hard, so he let Gonggong Zhang take over those trivial matters." In this way, if I take such a trivial matter to bother the imperial concubine, I am afraid that it will reach the ears of the emperor, and I will become the sinner. ”

"Besides, you also know that I am a halfway monk, although the imperial concubine Niangniang can afford to be promoted to serve by her side, but the two people around Niangniang are brought by Niangniang from her mother's family, and the intimacy is naturally far from being comparable to us. These days, seeing that I am favored, they have long been resentful. If it's really as you say, they should say that I took Qiao with the favor of my mother, and you have been with me for some time, so you should know that I am really not that kind of person. ”

Fu'er pursed her lips, thinking of the way the two aunts commanded and commanded their group of little palace maids on weekdays, that was to be pampered and arrogant. is also serving by the side of the imperial concubine, why the dumb aunt is much better than the two of them

When the aunt said this, the slave and maid did not report the matter to the mother, so as not to make it difficult for the aunt to behave. It's just that if my aunt is uncomfortable, she must tell the slave maid as soon as possible, and the slave maid can also let the maid replace the quack doctor" Fu'er responded to Xiao Ruo's words, but still said with some unease.

"My own body, of course, knows it. There's just one thing, I hope you will hide it for me. Halfway through the goal, Xiao Ruo continued to look at Fu'er and said, "The imperial concubine Niangniang invited a doctor for me, which is kind. In the future, if the imperial doctor sends you medicine, you can fry it as usual and send it over, so as not to attract the suspicion of the mother. When I get better, I will naturally go to my mother to explain this matter clearly. ”

"What's so difficult about this, anyway, the slave maid also happened to use the decoction to deliver medicine, and I was lazy for a while, and I hope my aunt won't drive me out." It's just a trivial matter, and as she spoke, Fu'er made a grimace at Xiao Ruo.

Xiao Ruo breathed a sigh of relief, so that she had a reason to continue hiding in the house. She can't leave the palace now, and she doesn't know what Yichu's situation is, she just hopes that she can hide here in silence as she thinks, waiting for the news to come in from outside the palace.

The truth that blessings and misfortunes depend on each other can be understood by anyone. If Xie Danniang knew what they had done, not only did she not achieve her goal, but instead gave Xiao Ruo an excuse to avoid the edge for a while, I don't know how much she would regret it.
