Chapter Seventy-Seven: Inextricable Threads (1)

Jiao Changqing had just sorted out the prescription in the Tai Hospital, and when he saw Meng Xilan's one again, he couldn't help but be secretly distracted.

Just thinking about it, I heard that someone from Cining Palace came to pass on the imperial doctor, and the person who came was a high welfare. "Master Jiao...... Something has happened to my master, please go over and take a look. ”

Jiao Changqing pursed his lips when he heard this, and seemed a little unhappy. He didn't rush to move, he just shook the prescription in his hand and asked lightly, "What's wrong with Princess Wenning?" ”

Because of the previous two times, he also increased his memory and kept an eye on it. He reminded himself that he could no longer be taken advantage of because of a moment of soft-heartedness.

Gao Fuli looked anxious, bowed his waist slightly and said, "The sedan chair that my master was sitting on fell and threw her down." Your Excellency, please hurry up......"

Fell?! Jiao Changqing frowned, picked up his medicine box, and hurried to Cining Palace in great strides. Gao Fuli followed behind him, and although he walked fast, he still couldn't catch up, so he could only follow at a trot.

Meng Xilan's fall was really not light, but it was just a cup of tea, and her feet were swollen.

Mama Kong was about to inform the Queen Mother, but she stopped her: "Mama don't worry, it's just a trivial matter, and it can't make the mother worry." ”

Mama Kong looked at her feet and shook her head again and again: "What a trivial matter is this." Hurt your muscles and bones for a hundred days, you can't be careless. ”

Meng Xilan couldn't persuade her, so she could only let her go. Once the Queen Mother knew about this, the little eunuchs who carried the sedan chair were afraid that they would not be able to escape the catastrophe.

Meng Xilan shook her head secretly, instead of blaming those eunuchs for not worrying, it is better to blame Zhou Shili for not appearing...... After thinking about it, Jiao Changqing came in from outside, still with a cold ice face and a heavy medicine box, his steps were a little hurried, and he almost collided with Mama Kong.

Mama Kong was slightly startled, and when she saw him coming, she breathed a sigh of relief and said, "My lord came just in time, let's help His Highness take a look." ”

Knowing that the injury is not serious, I can talk back to the Queen Mother.

Jiao Changqing came to the front and saluted slightly, not looking at Meng Xilan's face, only leaning over to see her exposed right foot.

Women's feet are the most taboo, how can they be shown casually. Meng Xilan subconsciously shrank her legs into the quilt, who knows, Jiao Changqing immediately raised his head and glared at her, his eyes were a little dissatisfied, and seemed to say: Didn't you let me come? What else to hide?

Meng Xilan's cheeks were a little feverish, and she carefully restored them to their original state.

Jiao Changqing didn't think much about it originally, but as a result, because she had just hidden, she also had a strange feeling in her heart. How so? It's just a little awkward...... It was also the first time in his life that he saw his daughter's feet...... In the past, he had only treated his naughty younger brothers in the family for fall injuries, and had never touched girls. Her feet don't seem to be in serious trouble, but the ankles are a little red and swollen, whether they hurt their muscles and bones, and we have to explore to find out.

Jiao Changqing glanced at her again: "Weichen needs to check it, it may hurt a little, please bear with me." ”

Examine? Meng Xilan opened her mouth slightly, and if she refused, before she could say anything, she saw that Jiao Changqing had already taken out a white handkerchief, lightly covered her ankle, and reached over.

"You ......" Meng Xilan opened her mouth, as if she was going to look angry.

Jiao Changqing's hand paused, but he still held her ankle directly, slightly forced, and moved left and right.

Meng Xilan gasped in pain, bit her lower lip, and couldn't speak.

A handkerchief is enough to cover the little foot, but the handkerchief is thin, and the texture and temperature of the palm are still very clear. Jiao Changqing raised the corners of his eyebrows slightly, quickly let go of his hand, and suddenly felt that his throat was itchy, and he wanted to cough but couldn't cough up.

"Hmm...... His Royal Highness only sprained slightly, did not hurt the bones, and the bones were not misaligned, and there was no major problem, but he could not walk on the ground for the time being, and he could not be forced. With that, he turned around and took out a medicine bottle and a long roll of white cotton from the medicine box. Wei Chen will help His Royal Highness apply medicine to reduce swelling. ”

Mama Kong breathed a sigh of relief: "This is very good, the old slave will go and inform the mother." ”

After she left, Meng Xilan suddenly spoke: "Let Zhulu help me take medicine." ”

He is a man after all, and his skin is similar, which is too inconvenient.

The corners of Jiao Changqing's eyes flickered, and his eyes flashed, as if he looked at her dissatisfied. In fact, he also knew in his heart what she was minding, whether men and women were intimate or not...... However, he thinks she's thinking a little too much!

Meng Xilan didn't know that her face was flushing, so she only said, "Since it's no big deal, let Zhulu come." ”

Zhu Lu stepped forward at the right time and looked at Jiao Changqing's face.

He just took a step back expressionlessly, handed the thing to Zhulu, and then explained in a light tone how she applied medicine, how to bandage, and how to apply hot compresses...... Zhulu listened carefully and didn't dare to forget a word.

Meng Xilan looked at her right foot wrapped in a white cloth and sighed secretly.

Jiao Changqing was beside him, packed up his things, and prepared to leave.

Before leaving, he looked at Meng Xilan meaningfully, and said softly: "Your Highness's days in the palace are still long, I hope you can take good care of yourself, treat others carefully, and watch the road carefully." ”

He said this a bit too much, and besides, his tone was not good, and there was sarcasm in the open.

Jiao Changqing also didn't hold back for a while, but felt that since Meng Xilan was full of scheming, she shouldn't have been "stumbling" like this every day, and besides, isn't she very smart? Smart people don't always let themselves get hurt.

Meng Xilan smiled at him, her smile slightly bitter. "It's a blessing or a curse, it's a curse that can't be avoided. Haven't you heard this phrase? ”

She didn't mind his sarcasm, not at all, because he had helped her.

Jiao Changqing, on the contrary, was made a little regretful by her indifferent attitude, opened his lips slightly, and finally chose to leave in silence.

Gao Fuli waited outside, and when he saw Jiao Changqing coming out, he lifted the curtain and came in and said, "Master, this thing is definitely not right." Alas! It's all because the minions were careless and didn't rush over to pick you up in time, so that the little cubs who don't know whether they are alive or dead hurt you. Minions damn ......"

Meng Xilan moved her body slightly, "I'm not a big deal." Don't always talk about "dead" and "alive" and listen to it. ”

Gao Fuli hurriedly snorted, "Yes, the slave will never mention this stubble again." However, the little eunuchs outside, the servants have to be interrogated first......"

This road has been smooth and slippery, and I fell at the gate of the palace, saying that it was an accident, who believes it?

Meng Xilan shook her head gently, "They are all scared to death this time, what can they ask?" Besides, Fang Cai Zhulu can see it clearly, you let her talk about it first. ”

Zhulu really looked at it carefully, lowered her head and said, "Master, the slave thinks they didn't mean it......"

Gao Welfare did not follow his words: "How is it possible? There must be ghosts in this! ”

People who have been in the palace for a long time will inevitably think about things more, and they always feel that there is something hidden behind them.

Zhu Lu looked at Meng Xilan with an embarrassed expression: "Master, after suffering such a crime, the slave and maid are also distressed, but the slave and maid think about it carefully, there is really nothing suspicious." ”

If it were someone else's words, Meng Xilan might not believe it, but if Zhu Lu said it, she would definitely believe it.

"Well, since it's not a heart, forget it." As soon as the words fell, Mama Kong's reprimand came from outside the courtyard: "A group of useless things, how many heads dare to make such a big mistake!" ”

Seeing that the words were wrong, Meng Xilan hurriedly asked Zhulu to invite Mama Kong in to talk.

Suddenly, the person who came in was not Mama Kong, but the Queen Mother.

Meng Xilan hurriedly sat up straight and muttered, "Queen Mother......"

The Queen Mother frowned, looking at her eyes in addition to distress or distress.

Meng Xilan hurriedly smiled and said, "It's just a little thing, it doesn't matter." ”

"These idiots, they can't even carry a sedan chair, what's the use of keeping them!" The Queen Mother was obviously angry.

Meng Xilan followed and persuaded: "It happened to have just rained today, and the ground was slippery, so there were some mistakes for a while." It is my blessing that my mother feels sorry for me. However, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is about to get married, and the whole palace is full of joy, and the harmony should not be broken for such a trivial matter. ”

In less than ten days, Chu Jingwen will enter the palace. The Queen Mother was thinking about this in her heart, and when she heard this, she also felt reasonable, and turned her head and instructed Mama Kong: "Let each of them go down and get twenty boards." ”

Mama Kong hurriedly responded: "Niangniang is kind." ”

If you accidentally injure the master, you will be punished according to the palace rules, and you will definitely die for life. Twenty boards, this is already their best luck.

In the eyes of the Queen Mother, Meng Xilan is an old poison that has not been cleared, and a new wound has been added, and she is distressed, so she can't help but think about it.

This child, since he entered the palace, has been in a bad situation, and almost gave his life. Could it be that something unclean is contaminated?

Recently, there has been a ghost incident in the Changqing Palace, which has been making a lot of noise and causing panic. The most important thing in the palace is the ghosts and ghosts, so everyone is afraid in their hearts.

"Hello to recuperate, next month, the mourning family will take you to Xiangguo Temple to burn incense and pray for blessings, and when the time comes, you must ask Abbot Huineng to do a ritual for you."

The Queen Mother was worried that Meng Xilan was contaminated by the resentment in the palace, which is why she caused so many disasters.

Ritual ...... Meng Xilan's eyes flickered slightly, she naturally understood the meaning of her words, and couldn't help but feel a tense in her heart, how could she be haunted by grievances? If she hadn't been reborn, she would have been nothing more than a wisp of grievances now.

The Queen Mother personally pointed at Jiao Changqing and asked him to take care of Meng Xilan's body, and it seemed that she had already decided that he was a trustworthy and reliable person.

When Meng Xilan heard this, she couldn't help but think about it. It seems that Jiao Changqing has no way to draw a line with her. In this way, it is good to recognize the reality as soon as possible, so that you can have peace of mind as soon as possible.

Although Jiao Changqing had expected it, he still felt a little upset when he heard this.

In the Tai Hospital, he has the least qualifications, but he has the highest background, everyone thinks he has a bright future, and they didn't expect that he would be able to win the love and trust of the Queen Mother so quickly, and it is estimated that it will not be long before he can be promoted again. It's just that he never thought that he would be so "reused"!
