Chapter 57: Faking Illness

Inside the carriage, Dan Tang and Lu Lin looked at Xiao Xuan, who was holding two small bamboo boxes and smiling beautifully, and looked at each other without speaking.

If you want to talk about Xiao Xuan, she was definitely raised by brocade clothes and jade food. She grew up in the palace, she has never seen any rare treasures, no expensive clothes and jewelry, she has the same temperament as Emperor Liu, and she never likes gorgeous and luxurious styles.

Xiao Xuan has learned everything about piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but he has learned to deal with people, and he is not proficient in it.

Her only hobby is to eat pastries and sweets, and when she was a child, she almost broke her mouth full of teeth because of the transition between Emperor Chu and her two brothers. Since that time, Emperor Liu's concubine has strictly controlled her to eat these things.

Entering the second palace gate, the attendants of Yihua Palace had already brought a soft sedan chair and waited in the door.

Dan Tang and Lu Lin got off the car first, carefully helped Xiao Xuan get out of the carriage, and sat in the soft sedan chair.

"Wait a minute." The soft sedan chair was lifted up, and just about to move, Xiao Xuan suddenly said loudly.

"Princess, what's wrong?" Dan Tang on the side of the sedan chair stepped forward and asked.

"Dan Tangerine, you run for me, talk to my father about the eldest sister, and say that I have to ask the imperial doctor to go to Famen Temple to diagnose the pulse of the eldest sister in two days, if the eldest sister's condition worsens, I implore my father to take the eldest sister back to the palace in advance to recuperate." Xiao Xuan finished instructing Dan Tangerine, turned his head and said to the green forest standing on the other side. "In the same way, Green Forest will go to Yuxiu Palace. Concubine Chen remembered her eldest sister's body, so she told Concubine Chen about today's events. ”

"Yes." Tangerines and Green Forests lead the way.

When the soft sedan car was about to arrive at the gate of Yihua Palace, Xiao Xuan saw a small figure guarding the door of Yihua Palace.

"Go fast." Xiao Xuan smiled and instructed the attendants who carried the sedan chair.

The attendants got Xiao Xuan's order, and their steps immediately became much faster, and in the blink of an eye, the kung fu soft sedan chair stopped at the door of Yihua Palace.

King Yujun got up late today, and when he washed up, he searched around the palace but didn't find his favorite little aunt. King Yujun ran to Concubine Liuhuang with his calves, climbed on the shoulders of Concubine Liuhuang and asked earnestly, where did the little aunt go?

Emperor Liu's concubine said that the little aunt went out of the palace today and may not be able to come back until the afternoon.

The king of Buyu County got up from a nap, and immediately led the nurse and the palace maids to the gate of Yihua Palace to wait for the little aunt to come back.

"Brother Yu." The soft sedan chair stopped steadily, but Xiao Xuan was not in a hurry to get off the sedan chair, leaned sideways on the edge of the soft sedan chair and called King Yujun with a smile.

After waiting for a long time and not seeing his little aunt come back, King Yujun was bored buttoning the pattern on the doorpost, and suddenly heard the voice of his little aunt talking, King Yujun raised his head in surprise and followed the voice, and sure enough, he saw his little aunt come back.

"Little aunt~~~" King Yujun immediately straightened up, shouted, and stumbled down the steps in front of the door.

"Your Royal Highness the King of the County beware." King Yujun rushed down the steps, and the nurse and palace maid behind him were afraid that he would fall down the steps if he stepped into the air, so they hurriedly shouted behind him.

Xiao Xuan didn't hurry to get off the soft sedan chair, and King Yujun jumped in front of her in two jumps, and pounced to save her calf.

"Little aunt~~" King Yujun hugged her and asked in a milky voice. "Where have you been? Why did you come back so late? Why don't you take Brother Yu with you? ”

"Alright, alright." Xiao Xuan carried a small bamboo box and shook it in front of the tip of Yujunwang's nose, and the sweet aroma that continued to seep out of it penetrated into Yujunwang's nose. "Look, what's in my little aunt's hand?"

"Well, it smells good!" King Yujun smelled the sweet aroma, jumped up and down happily, and said happily. "It's sugar!"

"Brother Yu is so powerful, you can know it when you smell it." Xiao Xuan carried two small boxes in one hand, and held the little hand of King Yujun in the other, and the two stepped on the steps together.

Concubine Liu Huang sat in her hall, listening to the frolicking sound of King Yujun and Xiao Xuan outside, and then got up to greet her.

"Didn't you just send things over today?" Concubine Liu stood at the doorrail with a smile and asked. "Why did you come back so late?"

"The eldest sister has a cold, and the things and medicinal herbs I brought with me must be settled before I can come back. My father told me to do things, and I had to do it well. Xiao Xuan led King Yujun to Concubine Liu Huang and said.

"What's in your hand?" Concubine Liu Huang saw the small box that Xiao Xuan was carrying, sniffed lightly, and said. "Eating candy again. When you are old, if you eat more sugar, you will lose your teeth, and if you grow into a fat princess, I think you can do it? ”

"Mother, it's just such a small box, it's only two boxes, where can I get fat." Xiao Xuan was in a hurry. "Besides, I'm not afraid even if I become a fat princess, I'm the daughter of my father, no matter how fat I am, I can find a wishful husband."

"Listen to you, is it what a daughter's family should say? I'm not ashamed. Emperor Liu said, raising her hand and scratching Xiao Xuan's face. When you usually run around the palace, you don't eat a lot of candy and snacks, and you don't know if I don't go out with you? ”

In the past, knowing that Xiao Xuan was sweet like his life, not to mention that Xiao Yu and Xiao Jun would often have some in the palace, and several other imperial palaces would not lose her, not to mention Emperor Chu, who had always doted on Xiao Xuan the most.

In addition to placing the folds and pen and ink on Emperor Chu's desk, he also set aside a special place for snacks prepared for Xiao Xuan. In addition to the tea that Emperor Chu likes to drink every day, Emperor Chu's Lingyun Hall will prepare some fruit tea that Xiao Xuan likes to drink every day.

Therefore, no matter how closely Concubine Liu looked at it when she was in Yihua Palace, day after day, the older Xiao Xuan gets, the more plump her cheeks become, and she is a sweet person who smiles very cutely.

"Brother Yu, don't learn from your little aunt in the future?" Concubine Liu was too lazy to take care of her daughter, so she went straight to the king of Yujun and went back.

Xiao Xuan didn't think it was a pestle at all, and followed Emperor Liu into the hall with a smile.

Waiting for Emperor Liu's concubine to sit down with King Yujun, she came to sit down next to Emperor Liu's concubine, and deliberately sat next to her.

"Is your big sister really caught the cold?" After sitting down, Emperor Liu's concubine was so amused by Xiao Xuan that she lost her temper, so she had to ask about Xiao Xuan's exit from the palace.

"Well, it should be. I saw that my eldest sister had a bad face and was mentally exhausted, so I left the cold medicine prepared by the Meitai Hospital in advance. Two days later, I thought about sending the imperial doctor who invited the peace pulse for the eldest sister on weekdays to go out of the palace to Famen Temple, and if the eldest sister's condition was not good, I would ask my father to take the eldest sister back to the palace as soon as possible. Xiao Xuan replied. The other clothes, bedding, etc. were all prepared by Concubine Chen yesterday, and I just brought them over today. When I returned to the palace, I sent Dan Tang and Lu Lin respectively, and went to my father's Emperor and Yuxiu Palace to tell me everything. ”

"Okay, you're doing a good job." Concubine Liu touched Xiao Xuan's cheek and said with a little approval. "After your eldest sister came out of Qingjingxuan a few years ago, she was much more well-behaved and obedient on the surface. In addition, this time Concubine Chen was seriously ill, she had to stay on the ground day and night, and offered to go to Famen Temple to pray for the deceased old lady of Ding'an Hou and Concubine Chen, and she had a good impression in front of your father. Your father was originally a child-hearted person, your brothers were not spoiled by princes, and you and she were the only two princesses in front of Your Majesty. As long as she doesn't make as much noise as she used to, your father will love her more. ”

"So I heard that my father was worried that my eldest sister would have a hard time in Famen Temple, so I took the initiative to mention that I went out of the palace to visit my eldest sister for my father."

"It's best if you can think of these." When it comes to pleasing Emperor Chu, Emperor Liu's concubine never had the slightest worry about Xiao Xuan. "No matter what happens to your big sister in the future, you just have to be yourself."

"Well, I made a note of it." Xiao Xuan nodded. "Mother."

After Xiao Xuan left, the mandarin duck went out for a long time before returning to Xiao Lu's room.

"Princess, princess." After the mandarin duck came back, he glanced at Brother Parrot, and Brother Parrot immediately understood, and when the mandarin duck walked to Xiao Lu's bedside, he closed all the doors and windows.

Hearing the mandarin duck's continuous call, Xiao Lu, who seemed to be sleeping soundly on the bed, suddenly opened a pair of eyes and looked at the mandarin duck.

"People are far away?" Xu really caught a cold, and when Xiao Lu spoke, her voice was extremely hoarse.

"Back to Princess, yes." Seeing that Xiao Lu opened her eyes, the mandarin duck hurriedly took the big pillow in the corner of the bed, helped Xiao Lu to sit up, and put the pillow behind Xiao Lu's waist so that she could lean on. "The slave watched the second princess get into the carriage with her own eyes, and came back when she saw that the carriage was far away."

"Okay, tonight is still according to the arrangement of the previous two days, and I will wash my body with cold water as usual before going to bed. When the lights go out, you take them down and cover them for me in the morning. Xiao Lu looked at the mandarin duck and said. The medicinal herbs she brought, you should be careful to avoid the group of the pennant guards to dispose of, so that no one can see them. Two days later, the Imperial Doctor came to check my pulse, and the Imperial Physician had to confirm that I was ill. ”

"Yes, Princess." The mandarin duck responded and said again. "But seeing that the weather has become colder and colder in the past two days, the princess is tossing her body like this, I'm afraid it will hurt the jade body."

"It's okay, I'm not like Xiao Xuan's sick seedling, I'm very weak when I hit a small body." Xiao Lu's eyes were weak but firm. "When I left the palace, I didn't expect that my father would arrange a team of pennant guards to follow me, and I couldn't even go out of Famen Temple. At present, my mother's illness is almost better, and there is no point in me staying in Famen Temple any longer. I couldn't take the initiative to mention going back to the palace in advance, so I had to pretend to be sick and let Xiao Xuan send a message back to the palace, so that my father could take me back to the palace to recuperate. ”
