Chapter 276: Concubine (3)

On that day, Shen Wan fell ill, and Xichen sent someone to invite the imperial doctor to come over, but he did not come to visit in person. After seeing it, Imperial Doctor Jiang said that Shen Wan was just depressed, there was no serious illness, as long as she relaxed her heart.

As the saying goes, heart disease requires heart medicine, but this heart medicine is probably not so easy to get. It seems that you can only take the medicine first.

Cui Shanggong sighed and said to Chun'er: "When Niangniang is better, let Qingyue bring the Third Highness over, and when you see the Third Highness, Niangniang's illness may be better sooner." ”

Chun'er pouted and agreed, but kept complaining: "If there wasn't that concubine, Niangniang wouldn't be sick like this!" ”

She had only said this tonight, and the next morning, Concubine Ruo came to say goodbye.

Cui Shanggong smiled at this sincerely frightened girl and said: "If the little concubine comes early, the queen is sick, I'm afraid I won't be able to see the little concubine." ”

Ruo Concubine hurriedly said: "The concubine just came to greet the mother, and the concubine also knew that the mother was sick, not to bother, but just yesterday...... Yesterday was all the fault of the concubine, the concubine has no eyes, I don't know the treasure of the mother, the concubine is really guilty and deserves death. ”

Cui Shanggong was stunned, why was this concubine so frightened? Was she really afraid that the queen would punish her? But the queen is already sick, and she is still worried about something. Cui Shanggong coughed lightly, and said with a smile: "If the little master of the concubine really doesn't need to care, Niangniang has already said yesterday that the little master is also unintentional, and he doesn't know the true identity of the little master, so Niangniang will not blame the little master." ”

"Really? Are you sure? Ruo Concubine raised her head and looked at Cui Shanggong timidly.

Cui Shanggong nodded helplessly, only to see that Concubine Ruo breathed a sigh of relief and said: "I thought that the queen mother was sick because of me, and I was relieved to know that the queen mother did not blame me." ”

Chun'er just came out of the inner room, and happened to hear this sentence, and immediately became angry, and rushed out and scolded: "Don't blame you for whom!" If it weren't for you, our mother wouldn't be angry! It's all because you rely on the emperor's favor and don't take your mother in your eyes! ”

Ruo Concubine looked at her in surprise, Cui Shanggong glared at Chun'er, and shouted in a low voice: "What nonsense! Don't go get your medicine yet! ”

Chun'er pouted, glared at Concubine Ruo fiercely, and walked out angrily.

Cui Shanggong said to the frightened concubine: "Don't blame the little master, Niangniang is sick, we are naturally very worried, so we ...... it."

Ruo Concubine hurriedly waved her hand and said, "No, no, no, I know actually...... It's all my fault......" She lowered her head, as if she was about to cry at any moment.

Cui Shanggong sighed secretly and said to her palace maid, "You can send the little master back first." "Stay here again, she will walk out with the rain like a pear blossom, as if she has been greatly wronged in the palace! It will be even more unclear when the time comes!

If the concubine was helped out, Xiangming stepped forward and asked, "Shang Gong, do you think this little master of Ruo Concubine is really so innocent, or is it a trick?" ”

Cui Shanggong frowned, pondered for a long time, and then said: "I can't see it, if you want to say that she is innocent, there has never been an innocent person in this palace, if you say that she is not true, but it makes people unable to grasp the suspicions." After thinking about it, he said: "Fang Cai Chun'er's girl is really dead, she is just a palace maid, and Ruo Concubine is the emperor's new favorite, if Ruo Concubine really has the heart to retaliate, Chun'er is only afraid that her life will be lost!" ”

"If you don't protect it, you won't protect it, I just can't get used to her cheap and obedient face!" Chun'er held the medicine in her hand and said angrily.

Cui Shanggong looked at her and said slowly: "Then do you know, just now you treated Ruo Concubine like that, if the concubine goes back and tells the emperor, the emperor will only blame Niangniang, if you think that it was instructed by Niangniang, you will be in trouble!" ”

Chun'er was stunned, and Xiangming sighed: "That's it, you are this temper, don't say a few words in the future, quickly bring the medicine to Niangniang to drink, don't tell Niangniang what happened just now, so as not to add another illness." ”

Chun'er said with red eyes: "Yes." ”

Xiangming said to Cui Shanggong again: "If Concubine Ruo is really a scheming person, this matter will definitely not be hidden from the emperor, and the emperor will probably think that the queen mother did it deliberately." ”

Cui Shanggong nodded and said, "Then, let's take a closer look at Shen Mengxuan's movements!" ”

Xiangming also nodded: "Exactly." ”

In the evening, Xichen went to Shen Mengxuan again as usual, but saw Ruo Concubine crying in the mirror, he was busy asking the little palace maid on the side, the little palace maid wanted to speak and stopped, and finally under Xichen's questioning, he said that Ruo Concubine went to the queen to say goodbye today, but was reprimanded by the palace maid next to the queen.

If the concubine told the palace maid to shut up, she sobbed and said: "It's the concubine's fault, it annoyed the queen, and she was taught a lesson or two by the people around her, and that's it." ”

Xichen frowned slightly, and said coldly: "You are a palace concubine, she is a palace maid, what qualifications do you have to teach you?" I have someone send her to apologize to you. ”

Ruo Concubine hurriedly knelt down and said, "The emperor can't!" The queen is still sick, if the people around her are transmitted, I'm afraid she will be worried, Ruo'er is a little wronged, it's nothing, as long as the queen no longer blames Ruo'er, the illness can get better quickly, Ruo'er is not afraid of anything. ”

Xichen helped her up, gently touched her hair, and Ruo Concubine snuggled softly in his arms. But in this way, Xichen felt that something seemed to be different. If the concubine's performance is very general, but ...... He was not relieved or happy at all, but felt that something was missing, and he couldn't tell how he felt. It's just that every woman who enters the palace will become like this?

Xichen didn't stay here tonight, and as soon as he left, Ruo Concubine began to be disappointed, and said to the palace maid: "Didn't you say that if you say this, the emperor will definitely favor me even more?" Why did the emperor leave instead? ”

The palace maid replied: "The emperor must have gone to the palace to punish the palace maid!" The emperor must feel in his heart that you are noble, generous and understanding, and will be impressed by you. ”

Ruo Concubine immediately became happy and said, "Is what you said true?" ”

The palace maid smiled: "Of course, the mother has a degree of advance and retreat, and the emperor will naturally like it." ”

Ruo Concubine was happy to hear this, and then rewarded her with a jade bracelet, and did not mention that the emperor did not stay here, and happily went to wash and sleep.

Xichen walked around outside, and before he knew it, he walked outside the gate of Chengong again. The cold moon in the sky is like a hook, hanging obliquely, and the night is clearly silent. He stood with his hands in his hands, and saw that the palace under the waning moon was like a huge black shadow, and since the use of items was halved, the lighting in the palace was also dimmed. In the past, the palace was as bright as day.

"The queen's illness is nothing serious, right?" Xichen asked Xiaoshizi.

Xiao Shizi hurriedly said: "Imperial Doctor Jiang said that it was nothing, but he was depressed. "But in my heart: You always care so much about your mother, just go in and take a look, maybe you can get better after taking a look!

Xichen looked at it quietly for a long time, but he didn't go in, didn't say anything, and turned around and left.

Xiao Shizi sighed in his heart and followed.
