Zhou Youchen smiled faintly, looked at the tribute orange in front of him, reached out and took one, lowered his head and peeled it quietly.

The orange peel exuded a faint fragrance, and Zhou Youchen divided the peeled oranges into petals one by one, and then placed them side by side on the table, as if he was not ready to eat them.

After singing the song, Wu Xue'er slowly got up, looked at Zhou Youchen with bright eyes, and saw that he was looking at herself, so she hung her neck slightly and said, "Your Majesty, the slave and maid just sang, are you still satisfied?" ”

Zhou Youchen smiled silently, only took a petal of orange from the table, handed it to her, and said, "Good singing." ”

Seeing this, Wu Xue'er was slightly stunned, then stepped forward to take the orange with both hands, and bowed again: "Thank you for the emperor's reward." ”

"Taste it, sweet or not?" Zhou Youchen said lightly.

Wu Xue'er was overjoyed when she saw that the emperor took the initiative to talk to her.

She took the orange into her mouth, and it was sweet.

Wu Xue'er smiled softly at Zhou Youchen, "It's very sweet." ”

Zhou Youchen looked at her pretty face that was enough to make men in the world feel sorry, and slowly got up and said, "If you like it, eat more." ”

Gao Fuli saw that the emperor got up, so he raised the dust in his hand and said, "The emperor is driving." ”

Wu Xue'er was stunned for a moment, puzzled by what she meant.

Song Huaiyu breathed a sigh of relief, and she got up to send off the emperor.

Zhou Youchen came and went in a hurry, as if he had lit a fire on the tip of Wu Xue'er's heart, and immediately extinguished it with a basin of cold water.

The loss in her heart cannot be expressed in words.

Song Huaiyu saw that she was stunned and didn't leave, so she said, "If you like the oranges on the table, take them all." ”

This ordinary sentence made Wu Xue'er red-faced, angry and annoyed in her heart.

"Sister, what do you mean by that? Sarcastic me? ”

Song Huaiyu looked at her with a smile: "I don't have the leisure to sarcastically mock you." Since my sister likes it, I just want to be a favor. ”

Wu Xue'er was in a bad mood, and snorted coldly: "The emperor can come today, all because of my singing." It's time for my sister to work hard. ”

Song Huaiyu turned his back and didn't look at her: "Thank you sister for reminding me." ”

Zhou Youchen came strangely today, I don't know why?

She looked out the window and sighed deeply.

She always knows those rumors in the palace now, are they true or false?

Why did Wen Jieyu deliberately pretend to be crazy and stupid? As the queen's mother, why did Song Wenxiu murder the prince? Most of them are because of the helplessness and anxiety in their hearts.

The life in this palace is simply overwhelming, and it can drive people crazy sooner or later!

……

The Meng family's big house was in front of Meng Xilan, and after frowning, they returned home, and they really settled down a lot.

Meng Zhengxue was watched by the Zhou family every day, and she didn't allow him to go out for half a step, let alone interact with those friends outside.

Meng Zhengxue is a person who is used to spending money to play, and if he doesn't go out for a day, he will be itchy all over his body and have trouble sleeping and eating.

Seeing him like this, Zhou was even more angry in his heart.

"Master, you might as well share it. What kind of person is the Queen Mother? We can't go against her! ”

Meng Xilan that day was enough to subvert all her previous impressions of her.

Before she knew it, she had become a terrible person, a truly terrible person.

Meng Zhengxue frowned and said, "What if she is the queen?" She was born as a member of the Meng family, and died as a ghost of the Meng family! I have always been her elder. ”

Hearing this, Zhou glared at him and said, "Master, just listen to my advice." Don't go and get along with your mother, if you make a big fuss, our situation at home will only get worse and worse! ”

Meng Zhengxue knew that she was reasonable, but he still didn't want to listen, patted the table, got up and said, "Don't be verbose!" I am the eldest son of the Meng family, who dares not to listen to the rules of the ancestors? ”

"Old man......"

Zhou blocked the door and didn't let him go out: "Master, just bear with it for a few days." Don't get into trouble anymore......"

The noisy voices of the two attracted the attention of the people in the courtyard.

Everyone in the Meng family knows what kind of temper the uncle is.

They hurried to the main courtyard and told the old lady.

When Mrs. Meng learned that her son and daughter-in-law were noisy again, she couldn't help frowning.

Meng Zhengxue is her eldest son, but he is the most uncompetitive son.

Feng Shi persuaded her not to be angry: "Old lady, it's not the first time that the big house has been noisy. It'll be fine in a while......"

The old lady rubbed her stuffy chest and shook her head again and again: "I don't know the boss's temper!" He had this evil fire in his heart, and he didn't know what bad water to hold back in his stomach. ”

She's fed up with his vexatious fuss.

Mrs. Meng held Feng's hand and came all the way to the courtyard of the big house.

Before entering the door, I heard Zhou's aggrieved cry.

Mrs. Meng pushed the door in, only to see Zhou lowering his head and wiping his tears, while her uncompetitive son was restlessly circling around the room, his face was flushed and his brows were furrowed.

"Have you had enough trouble?"

The old lady scolded lightly, causing the two of them to be slightly startled.

Zhou quickly got up and stopped his tears.

Meng Zhengxue saw his mother, his face changed slightly, and he bowed and said, "Mother......"

Old Mrs. Meng stared at the two of them and looked at them again: "Do you have the face to call my mother?" I ask you, when have you ever taken my mother to heart? ”

Meng Zhengxue's face stiffened when he heard this, but he didn't dare to refute, he only lowered his head.

Old Lady Meng stared at him and said, "Boss, if you still want me to live for two more years, you can stop a little." Since you don't have the ability, let's stay at home honestly. No matter what time it is, an outsider is always an outsider, and only the family will tolerate you and tolerate you. ”

After saying this, she looked at Zhou again: "I know how to cry and wipe tears all day long." How? Are you looking forward to our Meng family's bad luck, aren't you? ”

Zhou choked and shook his head: "Of course...... It's not ......"

Mrs. Meng interrupted her: "Next time you make such a fuss!" I'll let your mother's family persuade you! See if you're ashamed! ”

Zhou lowered his head when he heard this, knowing that the old lady was not just talking angry.

The short-lived turmoil is finally over.

At dinner time, Meng Zhenglu knew that his mother was angry because of the eldest brother's matter, so he couldn't help frowning and said, "Mother, your health is not good, you really shouldn't worry about such a trivial matter!" ”

Mrs. Meng closed her eyes slightly, leaned on the couch, and knelt beside her a maid who was beating her legs. "Small things can also become big things, I don't worry too much, go back and let them make trouble in the palace again, it's not good to make the mother upset."

Before, because of her poor health, the big house was in a lot of trouble at home and outside. Now that her body is better, she naturally can't let them hang around at home anymore, making a fuss and not talking about it, and letting outsiders follow and watch jokes.

……

It's almost August, and the weather is getting cooler day by day.

When she got up in the morning, Meng Xilan coughed slightly, and Zhu Qing invited Jiao Changqing.

Jiao Changqing will ask for peace for her every month, and the day of this month has not yet arrived.

"Niangniang's pulse is peaceful, and there is no big problem."

I haven't seen him for half a month, Jiao Changqing looks a lot thinner, and Meng Xilan can't help but be surprised: "Master, why have you lost so much weight recently?" ”

Jiao Changqing nodded slightly and said, "The minister is fine, please don't worry about it." ”

Meng Xilan listened to his answer, and said more in her heart: "Master, are you uncomfortable?" Or sick? ”

Jiao Changqing smiled lightly when he heard this: "Niangniang, the minister is the imperial doctor, if there is something in his body, the minister can heal himself." ”

Although he said this with a smile, Meng Xilan was so careful that he still discovered his abnormality.

She stared at his face, looked carefully, and found that his face was very unsightly, white and yellow, and even his lips were slightly annoyed by the whiteness.

Something wasn't right, he looked wrong.

"Master!" Meng Xilan said in an accentuated tone: "If you don't tell the truth, this palace won't let you go back." ”

When Jiao Changqing heard this, he looked up at her, and saw that she looked serious and her eyes were burning, so he said helplessly: "Niangniang, the minister is really fine......

Meng Xilan frowned slightly, and replied: "Okay, then the palace will send someone to invite other imperial doctors to come over, and take a look for you, master." ”

In the hospital, he is not the only doctor.

She must know that he is okay before she can feel at ease.

Jiao Changqing's face changed slightly when he heard this, he took a step forward and saluted: "Please don't be so excited." Minister, it's not because you're sick that you're ......."

Seeing that he was finally willing to tell the truth, Meng Xilan looked concerned and said, "Master, what's wrong with you?" ”

Jiao Changqing lowered his eyes and said: "Chen's father has been sick recently, and Chen has been worried about his father's condition. ”

"Oh? When did you get sick? Why doesn't Hongu know? ”

Jiao Changqing said in a low tone: "Such a trivial matter, why does it make the mother worry about it?" ”

"How can this be a trifle?" Meng Xilan stood up and walked in front of him: "Master's affairs, as far as this palace is concerned, it is a big matter. If the master needs anything from this palace, please be sure to speak, and don't be restrained and careful. ”

Jiao Changqing was grateful: "Thank you Niangniang for your thoughts." Chen's father is also a doctor, he knows his body very well, and Chen already knows the cause. For the time being, there is no place where I need my mother's help. ”

"Master...... Can this palace ask, what kind of disease does Master Jiao have? ”

Jiao Changqing frowned deeply, and said in an extremely heavy tone: "What my father got was heartache. ”

These days, he has used all the methods he can use, but his father's condition is still getting worse and worse.

Heartache...... Meng Xilan was slightly stunned.

This disease is very serious and troublesome, and it can easily take a person's life in an instant.

Meng Xilan opened her mouth slightly, wanting to comfort her master for a few words, but found that she had nothing to say.

There is no cure for this disease, and it is very dangerous.

As the saying goes, it is difficult for a doctor to heal himself. Mrs. Jiao has been a doctor for decades, and she doesn't know how many patients she has cured, but now she can't heal herself.

Jiao Changqing didn't want her to see her sad expression, so she lowered her head and said, "Niangniang, if you don't have any instructions, the minister wants to leave first......

Meng Xilan sighed softly: "Master, there is nothing that this palace can help, but as long as you say a word, no matter how difficult it is, this palace can do it for you." ”
