Chapter Twenty-Eight: Making Enemies

After Empress Dowager Liu's birthday, she became ill, and she only felt stuffy in her chest and abdomen every day, and she didn't think about eating. The imperial doctors came and went, but they couldn't make a conclusion.

Emperor Xiao ordered the dining room to cook all the world's delicacies, but the Empress Dowager Liu just had no appetite, so for half a month, people gradually lost weight, and their spirits began to burn out.

On this day, Guan Yong held a bowl of white fungus lotus seed soup and persuaded for a long time, and the Empress Dowager Liu easily drank two sips, and it didn't take half an hour, but she spit it out.

"Guan Yong, is the mourning family about to come to an end?" Empress Dowager Liu sat leaning on the brocade quilt and asked weakly.

"The Queen Mother Hugh said such a thing, but she is slightly ill, and it will be fine in three or five days." Guan Yongqiang couldn't help but feel sad and smiled reluctantly.

At this time, there were palace maids going back and forth, and the cold division of the division asked to see him.

"Hurry up and call her in, these days, the mourning family is thinking about the paper kite that she played with when she was a child, she came just in time, Guan Yong, quickly bring a pen and paper, I said, let her draw it down, make one for the mourning family, in order to relieve the pain of the mourning family's love."

Empress Dowager Liu instructed Guan Yong.

Guan Yong agreed, and ordered someone to bring calm in.

Calmly walked in with the palace maid and asked the Empress Dowager Liu to say goodbye.

Empress Dowager Liu ordered her to come closer, took her hand, and said with a smile: "Silly child, it's a pity that your skillful hands can't be used by the mourning family anymore." ”

"The Queen Mother Hugh said this, and the Queen Mother will live for a hundred years." Smiled calmly.

Guan Yong prepared a pen and paper and came over to summon calm down to paint.

Calmly following the meaning of the Empress Dowager Liu, she drew the drawings of the paper kite, handed it to her to look at, and looked like she wanted to speak and stopped.

Empress Dowager Liu saw what she meant, and said with a smile: "If you have anything to say, just say it directly, follow me, what are you polite about." ”

After a pause, he spoke in a dumb voice: "Ancestor, if the slave and maid say the wrong thing, your old man is elegant and will not deal with the slave and maid, huh?" ”

"Say it quickly." Empress Dowager Liu reached out and poked her forehead.

"The slave's uncle is a little bit of ambiguity, and when he was at home, he taught some to the slave, and the slave remembered that there was a prescription for treating chest and abdomen stuffiness and not thinking about eating, but, just 。。。。。。" Calmly muttered and refused to continue.

Guan Yong pushed her and said angrily: "If you have a recipe, say it quickly, the Queen Mother will never blame you." ”

"It's just that this prescription is ordinary, but the medicine is strange." The calm voice was lowered.

"What kind of medicine is it? The Queen Mother is the mother of a country, and no matter how weird the medicine is, she can get it. Guan Yong said loudly.

"This medicine is induced, yes, flesh and blood of relatives of flesh and bones, or flesh and blood of no relatives, father-in-law, flesh and blood of husband are also acceptable." The calm voice was so low that it was almost inaudible.

"Ridiculous! The emperor is the true son of heaven, how can his flesh and blood be cut at will, this prescription is not needed. Empress Dowager Liu laughed and waved her hand again and again.

Guan Yonggu pursed his mouth and did not speak, but his eyes turned quickly.

"Ancestor, slaves and maids are nonsense, and what they know is only folk earthwork, and the Queen Mother forgives her sins!" Calmly kneel down and kowtow and beg for mercy.

"Get up, this drawing is very good, it fits my heart, you go and make this paper kite well, the mourning family looks at the paper kite here in childhood, this disease is good."

Empress Dowager Liu handed the drawings to Calm and said with a smile.

Calmly agreed, took the drawings, and said goodbye.

Just went down the steps, but was stopped by Guan Yong, who followed out.

Guan Yong pulled her aside and asked in a low voice: "You just said that this medicine leads, in addition to your own flesh and bones, your husband's flesh and bones can also be, what do you mean?" You obviously know the identity of the Queen Mother, her husband and her own flesh and blood are both precious as the Son of Heaven, and it is impossible to use your own flesh and blood as a medicine guide, why do you say this? ”

"Aunt Guan, there is also a person's appointment, but the slave doesn't dare to say it." Calmly whispered.

"You mean the Nine Emperors?" Guan Yong sighed and frowned.

Calmly nodded.

"Husband's flesh and blood, it turns out that this is what it means!" Guan Yong sighed again and shook his head: "You give me the prescription, the Queen Mother has issued an order, and their mother and son will be executed at the end of this month, and then the flesh and blood of the Nine Emperor Princes can be used in medicine." ”

"The Queen Mother is afraid that she will not be able to survive the end of this month, this is the prescription, it is clearly written on it, the flesh and blood of the dead are not good, only the living can do it.

In fact, Aunt Guan, the slave maid still has a sentence to say, if the flesh and blood of the Nine Emperor Princes are used in medicine, they will really cure the Queen Mother's stubborn illness, and then kill their mother and son, are you afraid that the Queen Mother and her old man will not have a mean and vicious reputation? ”

Calmly asked.

Guan Yong straightened his eyes.

She knows Empress Dowager Liu.

Empress Dowager Liu wanted to kill Concubine Guan's mother and son, not all for the sake of her son's throne. What's more, Concubine Guan may know the Queen Mother's secret!

"Calm down, this medicine led you to the heavenly prison to get it, if it is done well, the position of Shanggong Bureau Shanggong is yours." Guan Yongzheng color road.

Calmly took two steps back, speechless.

"Calm down, since you dare to say this prescription in front of the Queen Mother, there must be a way to get the medicine guide, people must be killed, and the medicine guide must be taken.

Only you know about this matter, and if it is spread out, I will ask you. Guan Yong's voice became extremely cold.

calmly sighed heavily: "Aunt Guan, the concubine should be damned, the idiot is innocent, if the Nine Emperors can really save the life of the Queen Mother, would it be good to leave his life?" ”

Guan Yong glanced at the hall behind him and nodded slightly: "The Queen Mother is only afraid of the concubine, as for the Nine Emperors, although she is eighteen years old, she only has the intelligence of a five- or six-year-old child, presumably the Queen Mother will not be too persistent." ”

"Thank you, Aunt Guan, it will be fulfilled." Calmly thank her.

Guan Yong stared at her curiously: "You are doing this not only to save the Queen Mother, but also to save the Mother and Son of the Concubine, why is this?" ”

"Because the chicken bottle was sent by the slave to the mother and son of the concubine. The slave maid has been uneasy in her heart, maybe the slave maid inadvertently damaged the bottle on the way to deliver it?

If that is the case, won't the slave and maid be at ease for the rest of their lives? He said calmly and boldly.

Guan Yong swallowed his saliva, and a mocking smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Calm down, you are really too kind, people like you, if you want to live well in the palace, I'm afraid it's not easy, so it's good to know what to do." ”

Calmly saluted her and slowly left.

She originally thought that only this idea would probably save Concubine Guan's mother and son.

can listen to Guan Yong's words, Empress Dowager Liu's idea of killing people is resolute, and it is by no means just related to the battle for the throne.

The Nine Emperors are a fool, since Emperor Xiao ascended the throne, although he has not made any achievements, often does not go to the early dynasty, and does not take care of political affairs, but Sima Nan and the courtiers are on his top, and now the world is still peaceful, so the throne is also stable.

It stands to reason that the Queen Mother should not have this obsession with the Nine Emperor Sons, Mother and Son.

"Leng Sishe, it's hot, why are you so impatient, how about coming over and chatting with me over a cup of chrysanthemum tea?"

Calmly passing by the Imperial Garden, he was stopped by Emperor Xiao, who was sitting in the pavilion drinking tea.

Calm down, I had to come over and say goodbye.

Emperor Xiao personally pulled her up, his fingers swept over her neck, and he stroked her twice as if inadvertently.

"Come, sit down beside me." Emperor Xiao stretched out his hand and pushed Concubine Ying, who was standing beside him fanning, to the side, pulled her over and pressed her to a chair to sit.

Concubine Ying was pushed by this coldness, caught off guard, and fell straight to the ground, her face hit the leg of the chair, and her skin was broken.

Calm wanted to get up to greet him, but was held down by Emperor Xiao.

"Leng Sishe, drink tea, you don't drink the tea I poured myself?" Emperor Xiao held a cup of tea in his hand and handed it to Calm.

"Your Majesty, mother, she seems to have fallen and injured herself." Calm down.

"I want you to drink tea, what does it have to do with that slut's fall?" Emperor Xiao asked with a displeased face.

Calm had to shut up, picked up the teacup, and took a sip.

"Go, call Pei Cairen and ask the two sisters to give me a sheng flute ensemble." Emperor Xiao instructed the eunuchs around him.

"Your Majesty, the slave and maid have something to do, I'm afraid I'm going to disturb the emperor's Yaxing." Calmly whispered.

Emperor Xiao's starry eyes flashed a few times, he looked up to the sky and smiled, and nodded: "Interesting, really interesting, since I ascended the throne, no woman has dared to speak to me like this." ”

"Can the slave go?" Calm down.

"No, since I have made an order, how can I take it back." Emperor Xiao sneered.

"Your Majesty, the concubines will also blow the flute." Concubine Ying got up from the ground, covered her broken face with a handkerchief, and carefully spoke.

Emperor Xiao glanced at her coldly, and his voice was cold: "A woman who has ruined her appearance, and she dares to dangle in front of me, are you looking for death?" ”

When Concubine Ying heard this, she fell to her knees with a thud and began to cry.

"Xiao Ying'er, go back to your Pearl Pavilion, if your face is not cured, you won't have to see me, it's not to blame me, if you want to blame Leng Si for setting it up, if it weren't for her, I wouldn't have pushed you down, wouldn't I?"

Emperor Xiao's voice became lazy and lifeless, and as he spoke, he looked at the calmness sitting beside him.

Of course, he didn't mean to listen calmly, because Sima Nan had walked over.

According to Sima Nan's ears, he will be able to hear this.

Emperor Xiao just wanted him to hear it, he wanted him to be sad, and he wanted to set up countless enemies for calm in this harem, and see how this Sima general could protect this confidant.

"Your Majesty, the scholars have been waiting in the study for many places, please ask the emperor to go over and discuss matters." Sima Nan walked over and asked.

Emperor Xiao took a sip of tea, stood up, stretched his waist, and mocked: "If there is something to be decided by the old zombies in the cabinet, what to discuss with me." Obviously don't accept me, don't listen to me, but I still have to respond day by day and be this puppet.

Sima Nan, you come with me, I'm afraid that they will fight again, and I won't be able to control it. ”

Sima Nan responded, lowered his head and followed him, leaving the Imperial Garden.

Seeing them go away, Concubine Ying hurriedly walked to calm down, stretched out her hand to slap Calm, calmly turned her head and turned around to leave.

Concubine Ying grabbed her sleeve and sneered: "Don't be too complacent, what kind of character the emperor is, this palace knows best, otherwise there will be no three thousand harems, only this palace is favored by it." You wait, this palace must make you die well. ”

"Niangniang, let's go back quickly and find the imperial doctor to take a look at your face, it's the hot summer, if you are infected, you can really leave a scar." Said calmly and quietly.

When Concubine Ying heard this, she unconsciously raised her handkerchief to cover the injury, and stared at her fiercely.

"Niangniang, if the imperial doctor's prescription does not work for a long time, there is a folk earthwork here for the slave maid, and it is the most effective way to heal wounds and scars, if you don't dislike it, just let people take it."

Calmly saluted her, tore her hand away, and walked slowly out of the pavilion.

Concubine Ying looked at her back, her face was full of anger, she screamed, and swept all the teacups on the table to the ground with her sleeves.
