Aunt Ying can listen to one flute after another, this set is simply too professional, is there any?

Concubine Xi laughed, and hurriedly asked Xia Yue to write down Xiao Jinzi's words, and then went back to find a purple clay pot to put on it.

"Do you have any requirements for Pu Fan?" Concubine Xi asked.

"It's best to use a bamboo fan, or straw, just don't make it of cloth." Little Gold patiently explained.

Xiao Jinzi is actually puzzled in her heart, could it be that a woman is pregnant, she is really moody? Compared with the crying and laughing of this concubine, Liu Lifei is simply at the level of boiling noodles.

"The emperor drove to ......"

Emperor Zhou Sheng entered the inner room and saw that the originally delicate concubine actually had swollen eyes like lanterns, and there were mottled red spots on her face, which looked terrifying.

Concubine Xi didn't expect the emperor to come up so quickly, and she was unconsciously overjoyed.

"What the hell is going on?" Emperor Zhou Sheng raised his hand, motioned to the palace maids kneeling in the house to get up, pressed Xiao Jinzi's shoulder and let her continue to sit, looked at Concubine Xi who was half lying on the bed, and asked with concern.

Concubine Xi is still smart in this regard, she didn't add oil and vinegar, but just bluntly said that Concubine Xian lined up with a powerful imperial concubine to "visit" herself, and she had to admit the "assassination" incident in the woods last time, but she didn't know that she was inexplicably allergic.

"Your Majesty, the concubine really didn't assassinate you, that matter, the concubine...... The concubine ...... "Concubine Xi cried with a whimper."

Xiao Jinzi hung his head and sighed in his heart, these tears are too worthless to silver, right?

Concubine Xi wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and looked at the emperor's hand on Xiao Jinzi's shoulder, did this little palace maid already have the emperor's blue eyes? But at her age, it seems that it will take another year to catch up, right? When did the emperor like such a small girl?

Concubine Xi was not jealous, because she didn't have the time to be jealous, and her mind now was completely focused on finding another partner!

You must know that surviving in the palace, especially the concubine, is completely impossible without partners! By the favor of the emperor? Even Concubine Min is so favored, she has partners like Concubine Shu and Concubine De, let alone herself?! Concubine Liu Lifei is very light to everyone on weekdays, and she is a little suspicious, which is naturally inappropriate; Virtuous Concubine? It's impossible, and after today's incident, it's even more impossible, the "sisterhood" in the past has all been burned; Empress? Min Fei? Concubine De? Lady? Don't even think about it, there is still the rest, there is no contact at all on weekdays, after Li Zhaoyi gave birth to the sixth prince, she lived in a simple place, plus the mess in the Zhongyi Marquis Mansion, the emperor almost never visited her in her bedroom again, occasionally, because of the six princes, and a polite word or two to her, just care for it.

"You can raise the fetus with peace of mind, the matter of the assassination, Dali Temple will naturally investigate clearly, and I and the prince will definitely not wronged anyone, so don't think so much about it."

seemed to hear the impatience in the emperor's tone, and seemed to remember his current description, "wow", Concubine Xi thought of it later, and her current ugly appearance had been seen by the emperor.

"Ahh Concubine Xi quickly lifted the quilt and buried herself in the quilt.

The emperor and Xiao Jinzi sitting on the small pestle, as well as Yinggu and Xia Yue, who were standing behind, were almost frightened half to death by Concubine Xi's sudden movements.

"Don't look at me, Your Majesty, the concubine is indecent now, you go back first, and when the concubine is well, you can come to see me again." Concubine Xi covered the quilt and muttered in a muffled voice.

Emperor Zhou Sheng chuckled, he had accepted the advice of his beloved third son, and was ready to leave a way for this simple-minded and stupid concubine to live, which can be regarded as accumulating virtue, people are like this, the older they get, the more they can tolerate many things that seem to be intolerable at all, as long as it is not about the stability of the national body, and it is not shaking the foundation of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the rest can be turned a blind eye, take a look, pass, forget it.

"Okay, then I'll come to see you another day, you take care of your body, what is missing, tell the queen that is." After speaking, he looked at Xiao Jinzi and said gently: "You help Yu'er to see how to recuperate, go back and write the prescription, discuss it with Imperial Doctor Ye, and after a while, go back to another courtyard with me." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Xiao Jinzi wanted to get up and salute, but was pressed back by Emperor Zhou Sheng, "You sit down, have a good chat with Yu'er, and then ask Aunt Ying to take you to Tai Hospital and find Imperial Doctor Ye." ”

Xiao Jinzi nodded obediently.

Emperor Zhou Sheng patted her little shoulder with satisfaction, and then turned around and walked out of the inner room.

After a while, "Is the emperor gone?" Concubine Xi was still in the quilt, covering her head and asked.

"It's gone, let's come out." Xia Yue replied with a smile, "Niangniang, are you thirsty?" Doctor Ye has instructed you to drink more water. ”

Concubine Xi then tore off the quilt covering her head, exhaled, and said, "Don't you say that I don't think I think so, but I'm really thirsty." ”

Xia Yue smiled and went to pour water for Concubine Xi, Concubine Xi tilted her head and looked at Xiao Jinzi, before she could say what a fool, Xiao Jinzi smiled and said to her first: "Niangniang, the slave maid made some small gifts for you, don't look at it yourself, the slave maid will explain to Sister Xia Yue in a while, you just remember, if the virtuous concubine Niangniang comes to you again, you will say that your body is not well raised, don't go to see her, everything has the emperor to call you the shots, you can relax, take care of your body, you are in good health, Only a child can be healthy. ”

Emperor Zhou Sheng walked out of Peixi Palace, the smile on his face gradually retracted, and became obscure, and the chief manager Deng, who had been following and waiting, followed him cautiously and quietly, but he was secretly frightened in his heart, that black wooden little man like a child, which made people feel creepy when they looked at it, how could they just let a palace maid bring it to the harem? It's himself, the old man who has been in the palace for nearly forty years, and he can be regarded as having seen countless lives and deaths, and at first glance, he will tremble with fear......

"It's not up to you, so don't worry about it." Emperor Zhou Sheng's voice floated smoothly above the head of Chief Manager Deng, and Chief Manager Deng was frightened, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the old slave didn't see anything." ”

"Hmm." Emperor Zhou Sheng hummed at this time, nodded, and did not take advantage of the excitement, but walked back to the main palace where Empress Chen was.

Emperor Zhou Sheng returned to the main palace and said to the people who saluted: "Since Concubine Xian doesn't admit it, then, for the sake of fairness, I will also give Yu'er an explanation, and Imperial Doctor Ye ......."

"Wechen is here!" Imperial Physician Ye knelt and said.

"Get up first, get up." Emperor Zhou Sheng raised his hand, signaled everyone kneeling on the ground to get up first, then took the queen's hand, returned to the top and sat down, and continued to instruct: "Imperial Doctor Ye, I ordered someone to take people, search your body first, and see where the pollen of the thorny rose flowers is hidden." Whoever it was, all of them were carefully examined by me! After speaking, the voice was unusually stern, and the emperor's majesty was fully displayed.

Imperial Physician Ye hurriedly surrendered his hand and received his life!

Chief Manager Deng had already received the holy order and rushed to the Tai Hospital to find a number of medical women.

Hearing that she was going to check her body, Concubine Xian didn't have any fear on her face, and she didn't even have a little bit of a thief's weak look, and Emperor Zhou Sheng naturally saw it in her eyes.

After waiting for a cup of tea, the medical woman who went to check on Concubine Xi came back and said: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother, His Royal Highness the Prince, and Concubine Xi Niangniang's palace do not have any prickly rose pollen, not even flowering plants. ”

Emperor Zhou Sheng raised his finger and pointed.

The medical lady said to Concubine Xian: "Concubine Xian, please." ”

Concubine Xian was arrogant, she was afraid of Emperor Zhou Sheng, and she didn't dare to show any anger in front of him, but glanced at Emperor Zhou Sheng with grievances, and then followed the doctor to the side hall for examination.

The crown prince Zhou Minchang became nervous, what if it was really the mother concubine......? Seeing that Concubine Xian's back turned around and disappeared, she hurriedly looked back at Emperor Zhou Sheng, and screamed uneasily.

"Father......?"

Emperor Zhou Sheng glanced at him lovingly, "Don't worry, this is also a test for you, during this time, you have done a good job, I am very satisfied." ”

Probably, as a father, he loves his children, whether they are competitive or honest, right? But as an emperor, he needs to observe every child indifferently and calmly, without any emotional color, and then, for his own country and his own people, choose the only suitable person to inherit the position under him.

It was the first time that the crown prince Zhou Minchang had received such direct praise from his father, and he was so excited that he couldn't help himself, since he was in charge of the country as the crown prince, he was really tired, both physically and mentally.

When Emperor Zhou Sheng saw him like this, his heart was sour, don't look over, don't look at him anymore.

Empress Chen quietly reached out from under the armrest of the chair and shook Emperor Zhou Sheng's hand.

Soon, the medical lady returned that there was no pollen on the body of the virtuous concubine, but her personal palace maid Lan Zhi and the old palace maid Gui Shanggong had this kind of pollen, and the other palace maid did not have this kind of pollen on the body of the other palace maid.

Concubine Xian listened to the reply of the medical lady in shock, and yelled anxiously, "Impossible! It's impossible! ”

"Mother!" The crown prince Zhou Minchang just stood up, pulled the angry concubine, and persuaded: "You...... Alas...... has his own father and the emperor, and his mother is the concubine! ”

Concubine Xian turned her head and patted Zhou Minchang fiercely and pulled her arm, "They are united, why don't you understand?" Why are you so stupid? They're hurting us! ”

"Don't stop me yet!" Emperor Zhou Sheng picked up the teacup on the table, fell to the ground with a "snap", glared at the virtuous concubine who had lost her mind, and pointed at her: "My prince, can you beat casually?" Honest and untrustworthy! Come on, take down Concubine Xian! ”

The crown prince Zhou Minchang was a little stunned by Concubine Xian, and when he saw a few eunuchs rushing in, he pulled away Concubine Xian, who was still waving her arms, turned her head to look at Emperor Zhou Sheng, was stunned, and knelt down with a "bang", "Father, spare ...... Spare the concubine this time. ”

Zhou Minrui hurriedly stood up, knelt down beside Zhou Minchang, kowtowed and begged: "Father, just spare the virtuous mother and concubine this time." ”

Empress Chen also stood up and curtsied at Emperor Zhou Sheng: "Your Majesty, Concubine Xian's sister is also confused, so you can ...... Forgive her this time, let her go back and think about it behind closed doors! ”

Concubine Xian couldn't listen to Queen Chen's fake tone, and scolded angrily: "I don't need your fake kindness!" Perhaps, today's event was planned by you! ”

Concubine Xian broke free from the eunuch who was holding her, ran to Emperor Zhou Sheng's leg in a few steps, hugged Emperor Zhou Sheng's leg, and cried: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it's their ......" raised her hand and pointed at Empress Chen on the side, looked at Emperor Zhou Sheng, and said: "It's them who are trying to harm me, Your Majesty, you have to investigate clearly, the concubines are wronged, the concubines are wronged." ”

Emperor Zhou Sheng closed his eyes in disgust, and then opened them again, indifferent and clear, "Oh, you said they were using tricks to harm you?" Why do they want to hurt you? Even your son, do you doubt it? Or are these palace maids around you all bought by 'them'? ”

"Your Majesty, the concubines don't know about this prickly rose pollen, but if the Guishang Palace and Lan Zhi around me have this pollen, why will the concubines be fine? To say, the concubines have been with them for the longest time, right? Moreover, they have to help the concubines with their concubines every day, and they will also come into contact with a lot of people, why is everyone else fine, but Concubine Xi's sister and that Zhao Shanggong will have something? "This matter, Concubine Xian is indeed wronged, first, this thorny rose, because she was banned by Emperor Zhou Sheng a few years ago, she has not been in contact with it again, for fear that one is not good and dyes herself, and besides, if it is really Mama Gui and Lan Zhi, then why are the two of them fine, and she has helped them all the way, how can she be fine? Maybe, it was Concubine Xi who colluded with the queen, a cheap woman, to deliberately strangle herself, right! It must be so!

The crown prince Zhou Minchang also came back to his senses, and his heart was also full of doubts, could it be that the mother concubine was really wronged? Could it be the ...... of Concubine Xi?

"What Concubine Xian said has some truth, Imperial Doctor Ye, tell me, why is that palace maid and Guishang Palace fine? Concubine Xian is also the one they have the most contact with, and it is impossible that they have not touched it today, so why is everyone fine, just Concubine Xi and the Zhao Shanggong next to her? Emperor Zhou Sheng looked at Imperial Physician Ye and asked.

Seeing the emperor asking, Imperial Physician Ye hurriedly knelt down and replied: "If you go back to the emperor, this prickly rose pollen actually falls on ordinary skin, there will be no problem, the problem is, if it comes into contact with watery skin, this water, whether it is tea, or water, or tears, as long as it comes into contact with watery skin, it will be irritating, causing skin allergies, plus, Zhao Shanggong was slapped twice, and this pollen will spread with this tear, naturally, this Zhao Shanggong is the most serious one." This is also the reason why Lan Zhi, Mama Gui and Concubine Xian will be fine. ”

Prince Zhou Minchang's straight neck loosened, it seems that this is really what the mother concubine did, Lan Zhi and Mama Gui have been following the old man who served her since she was not married into the royal family, to say that she was bought? That's impossible, Mama Gui's son is still on an errand in the Wu Mansion, Lan Zhi's husband is now also the big housekeeper of the Wu Mansion, how could he leave his husband's son and be bought? Besides, they followed their mother concubine, and they were not short of money, and they had not heard of their family, and some people were good at gambling or something, so naturally they would not be coerced......

"Brother Prince, you have to be stronger." Zhou Minrui didn't know how to comfort Zhou Minchang, so he had to walk a few steps on his knees, get closer to him, and comfort him in a low voice. The evidence is all in front of her, no matter how much Concubine Xian quibbles, it is a fact that cannot be denied.

Zhou Minchang nodded lightly, turned his head to look at Zhou Minrui, who was worried about him, and said, "Third brother, don't worry, I'm fine." ”

Concubine Xian was stunned at the moment, whether it was pollen or allergies, she didn't know anything, she really didn't know, but the evidence was so conclusive, how could she argue?

"Your Majesty, it was they who jointly framed the concubines, this Lan Zhi and Mama Gui must have been bought by them, Your Majesty, the concubines were wronged......" On her mouth now, there is only this weak argument left.

To outsiders, this is almost all an excuse for her to excuse herself.

Lan Zhi and Mama Gui had already been taken down by the eunuchs, so naturally they couldn't hear such ruthless words from their masters who had been loyal for decades.

"The female officials in the palace of the virtuous concubine are good at using forbidden flowers, although the virtuous concubine said that she did not instruct her subordinates to do so, but it is a fact that the rule is not strict, so contempt for the emperor's order, contempt for me, it is really disrespectful, go to the virtuous word of the virtuous concubine, for the sake of the prince's face, demote one level, and call it the martial concubine in the future."

Concubine Xian raised her head suddenly, looking at Emperor Zhou Sheng in astonishment.

Emperor Zhou Sheng didn't look at her, but at Empress Chen, and said: "The rest, let the queen deal with it, I have to rush back to the other courtyard, Li'er's mood is not very good recently, I don't worry about her." ”

Empress Chen nodded, "Well, help me bring it for Sister Li'er, I won't give her anything, you can take care of it more." ”

Emperor Zhou Sheng smiled and patted Empress Chen's hand, turned his head to look at Concubine Wu who was kneeling on the ground and was still babbling in her mouth, raised her eyes, looked at Zhou Minchang and said, "Prince, you send your mother back to the palace first, talk to her well, and don't let her get into trouble again." ”

Emperor Zhou Sheng took the little gold and returned to the royal courtyard.

This night, there was another incident in the palace, Concubine Xian Niangniang was frightened by the ghost of Zhou Minxiang, the fourth prince of Xiao Li Meiren, who had been dead for nearly ten years.

Xiao Li, who hadn't shown up for a long time, was instantly pushed to the forefront.

His father, Master Li, a scholar of Dongkaku University, also became the focus of private discussions among the courtiers.

Master Li, a scholar of Dongge University, who was sitting in the study room of General Wuda's mansion, looked at General Wuda sitting at the top anxiously and worriedly, and said worriedly: "General, that wooden puppet is really not made by my daughter. ”
