Chapter 30 Renovation of the East Palace

If Old Man Lu's prophecy is true, then the crown princess will definitely ascend to the phoenix throne in the future, and the mother will be the world.

If he pulls the princess at this time, when the princess regains his favor, he will inevitably have his benefits.......

What surprised him even more was that on the way back to the palace from the Temple of Heaven, the prince personally carried the princess back to the palace. Seeing that day, the imperial doctor diagnosed the crown princess, and the prince's expression was obviously full of regret. It's not surprising that others can't see it, how can he serve His Royal Highness when he is a child and not know how much the prince cares about the crown princess.

For so many years, the prince has never cared so much about any woman except for being a little gentle with Xiaoshuang.

Li Chuntang is a good person in the palace, so he naturally knows who to help.

"Bengu knows, you go down." After Shen Mushi threw this sentence at him lukewarmly, he buried the first batch of relictions.

The ninth day of the wedding.

The night was cold, and the body temperature of both of them burned again, and it remained high. Xin'er and Jing'er were full of sadness, and the two of them picked them up together, reluctantly fed her some water, and then untied her single clothes and dipped them in cold water with a cotton towel to carefully wipe off the sweat on her body.

"It's been burning for five days, and the master is still unconscious, how can it be good to go on like this! His Royal Highness doesn't feel sorry for his master, he hasn't been here once!" Xin'er looked at the unconscious princess worriedly, bent down and picked up the wooden basin to change the water.

"What nonsense are you talking about! Okay, you take a good look at the master, I'll go to the imperial doctor! Jing'er put down the cotton towel in her hand, and after explaining uneasily, she hurriedly ran out.

"Go and come back! I'll go change the water first. Xin'er also walked quickly to the dust pit in the inner hall with a wooden basin.

When Shen Mushi stepped into the Weiyang Palace, the Weiyang Palace, which was lively in the past, was silent, deserted and bleak, and it was not sad.

Walking into the inner room of the warm pavilion, I saw Lu Shuangshuang lying alone on the wedding couch.

It was cold on the autumn night, she didn't have a quilt, her thin clothes were half-open, and there was not even a person around to serve.

He frowned, and stepped forward to grab her half-open coat to put it on her, only to find that her clothes were wet.

Originally, her fine hair between her temples was like hair, and she looked delicate and cute, but now it was all stuck to her cheeks, and she looked particularly haggard and thin.

He stretched out his fingertips and brushed away his hair, and his fingertips touched the flesh to realize that his cheeks were hot, and he was taken aback, and put his hand over his entire forehead, which was hot and hot.

I didn't expect what Li Chuntang said to be true, she was really sick.

Since she is sick, where have all the palace people who served her gone?

His handsome eyebrows froze.

Shuangshuang felt the coldness on his forehead and muttered, "Daddy...... Why ........" The voice is like crying, low and inaudible, but in the silent Weiyang Palace, it is so clear.

The night breeze is blowing, and it is slightly cool.

Shen Mushi's brows frowned even tighter, he got up and took off his outer robe and single clothes, and then put his soft body against him, as soon as he hugged her, he noticed that her body temperature was extremely high, not like the ordinary wind and cold.

Both of them were confused, and began to murmur again: "I want to go home....... Father........ Mother........ "Tears slipped from the corners of her closed eyes.

Shen Mushi watched her shed tears, and when he heard her broken babble, his brows furrowed deeper, and his arms tightened slightly.

After a while, he remembered the way his grandmother comforted him when he was sick when he was a child.

Hesitating, Shen Mushi patted her back awkwardly and softly, "Good shuangshuang....... Shrewd........ When you wake up, I'll let you go home........"

But before he said this, he immediately regretted it, and there was an indescribable sourness in his heart.

There was a loud bang, and an inopportune sound came from the door.

Shen Mushi raised his head and stared coldly at the core of the wooden basin that had been knocked over by mistake at the door.

"Your Highness's forgiveness! The slave and maid will clean it up. Xin'er didn't expect the Prince's Palace to leak and come to Weiyang Palace, and she was holding the Crown Princess naked.

"Why isn't there anyone in the temple?"

Shen Mushi looked at Xin'er who was kneeling on the ground, his eyes darkened, and he asked coldly.

"Back to Your Highness, Jing'er went to ask for a doctor, and the others ...... The others ........." Xin'er's tone was slurking, and her body on the ground kept shaking.

Shen Mushi knew it in his heart, and his eyes became more and more cold.

"Call Li Chuntang and tell him to bring everyone to the main hall."

Shen Mushi rarely didn't get angry, but just commanded lightly.

But Xin Erleng heard a hint of bloodlust in his usual words, and she knew that those who neglected their duties tonight were about to come to a great disaster.

"Yes, the slave maid will clean up first." Xin'er hurriedly got up and went to pick up the rolling wooden basin.

"What else to pack up, go and call Li Chuntang and that bastard!" Shen Mushi roared impatiently.

"Yes! Slave and maid, go now! ”

Xin'er escaped from the inner room and ran tremblingly to the third courtyard where the palace people lived.

After a while, a group of people knelt down in front of the Weiyang Palace, all of them lying on the ground and shivering.

Shen Mushi wore a dark green embroidered golden chrysanthemum robe, lazily sat on the soft couch in the warm pavilion, and looked sideways at the imperial doctor to check the pulse of the two people.

Li Chuntang bent down and stood beside him, and whispered: "Your Highness, there are a total of forty people in the Weiyang Palace. There are three sleepers, three palace maids and eunuchs, and three palace maids on duty. There are four chefs and two people on duty. One master of ceremonies and one person on duty. There are 16 palace people, 8 palace maids, 8 eunuchs, and 4 people on duty. The rest are the five people who sweep the palace.........."

"Getting to the point." Shen Mushi interrupted Li Chuntang's chatter.

Li Chuntang hurriedly said: "There should be nineteen people on duty tonight, and nineteen people who are not in the palace. ”

Shen Mushi felt like a mirror in his heart, it must be that these Diao slaves thought that the crown princess had lost power, and they began to slack off one by one. Seeing that the crown princess was sick and had no one to call the shots, she was too lazy to enter the palace to serve.

"Eighty rods were given, the nails of the index fingers were plucked out, the hair was shaved, and the scalp was permed with slave characters, and then sent back to the court. If the Sixth Bureau asks, it will be said that in the future, people will be selected from the main palace and sent to the Sixth Bureau for training. ”

Shen Mushi's voice was cold, and he couldn't hear his emotions, but such a cruel punishment made everyone shudder.

And those palace people who were punished didn't even dare to beg for mercy, they lay on the ground one by one and didn't dare to come out, and even worse, they were already so frightened that they fainted.

Once those slaves are printed with the word slave, whether they stay in the palace or outside the palace in this life, they are the lowest lowly status, and they cannot be redeemed in this life.

Shen Mushi's trick was extremely clever, and he immediately sent out all the dog slaves in the East Palace who were bullying people and eating inside and out, so that the rest of the people would naturally be honest.

"Yes." Li Chuntang replied respectfully.

"In addition, you have all heard clearly to the main palace, the east palace of the main palace does not need disloyal minions. Bullying the Lord, laziness and slackness will end up the same as them. ”

Shen Mushi's tone was not stern, but the volume of his voice was enough to reach the outside of the hall to shock everyone.

Li Chuntang walked outside the hall, escorted nineteen people to the third courtyard to receive the punishment, and ordered everyone to be quieter, don't disturb the princess's rest.

Seeing that the palace people had retreated, the imperial doctor next to him dared to come over and reply:

"Your Royal Highness, the reason why the crown princess has been having a high fever is mainly because her arm is injured and inflamed, and her sad and tired body is difficult to heal. Wechen has prescribed a few prescriptions to calm the mind and nourish the body. In addition, the rosewood and cedar incense are opened, but in two days, the princess will wake up. ”

"There's Dr. Lao Zhou."

Shen Mushi had a gentle smile on his face, and his tone was calm and waveless, just like the ruthless appearance just now.

"Don't dare, this is Weichen's duty." The imperial doctor had just seen the means by which His Royal Highness the Crown Prince punished the palace people, so he was naturally extremely careful and did not dare to slack off.

After the imperial doctor left, Shen Mushi stepped into the inner room, and at this time, Jing'er and Xin'er had already changed into dry bedclothes for both of them, and were about to serve her to sleep.

"Your Highness, it's okay to have slaves and maids here, can you go and rest?" Xin'er saw Shen Mu's face with tiredness, and cautiously persuaded.

"Who wants you to talk too much? Shen Mushi's eyes were cold and cold.

"Your Highness......." Xin'er didn't know that she had said the wrong thing, and was stunned.

"I won't protect the Lord, but I will cause trouble. Go to Li Chuntang to receive the punishment, ban for 20 days, and transfer to Hanxian Hall to serve tomorrow. ”

Shen Mushi had already listened to Li Fuquan's announcement, and knew that it was not the crown princess who was going to Hanxian Hall that day, but she made a lot of noise to attract the palace people to enter the palace to report.

"Your Highness spares your life! Your Highness spares your life! ”

Xin'er was shocked after hearing Shen Mushi's words, and fell to the ground in fear and kowtowed to beg for mercy.

She arranged the frost attendant at the gate of the Hanxian Palace that day, and the frost attendant must have already known, and now she is transferred to the Hanxian Palace, wouldn't she want her to die?

"If you spare your life, the master's life is not your life?" Shen Mushi sneered.

He already knew the ins and outs of the whole thing, although he injured Lu Shuangshuang, but the whole thing started because of this person. If she is left with the crown princess, I am afraid that she will cause trouble.

"Your Highness spares your life! The slave knows that she is wrong, and the slave will definitely change! I beg Your Highness to give the slave another chance! Xin'er's face was as pale as a dead man, and she kept snorting her head, and her forehead was swollen.

If Shuangshuang saw it, he would definitely intercede for her, but unfortunately, when he met the hard-hearted Shen Mu, it was useless at all.

Seeing that begging for mercy was useless, Xin'er suddenly pounced on Jing'er, who had never dared to raise her head, and begged: "Sister Jing'er, please save me, help me intercede with His Highness, I will really change it in the future!" ”

Jing'er herself had just walked away from the ghost gate, where did she dare to touch Shen Mushi's moldy head. She didn't dare to look at Xin'er at all, cold sweat was dripping on her back, she only hoped that Xin'er wouldn't make any more trouble, in case she disturbed the princess's rest, it would be a real dead end.

"Wu Shengping, drag her down."

Shen Mushi called out coldly, and the eunuch at the door dragged Xin'er out and shook his sleeves, as if he wanted to shake off something dirty.
