Chapter 139: Actuation
"Who's standing there, what the hell is going on?" Pei Shuang shouted, startling a little eunuch not far away who almost lost his soul.
Coming out of Qixiang Palace to listen to the play, the sky was already dark. Concubine Zhuang accompanied the emperor back to Yonghe Palace. Ruyue took Concubine Cheng's hand and walked slowly on the palace road, which was a walk.
As soon as he turned into the path of the Imperial Garden, Pei Shuang saw a figure swaying not far ahead. "If Concubine Niangniang and Concubine Cheng are here, don't you come over?"
The figure was in a panic, and ran over in three or two steps, and puffed to kneel in front of Concubine Ru. "The slave is the little sixth son of the lantern vault, who is on an errand in the imperial garden, to see where the lanterns need to be added, so that the ladies and little masters of the palaces can enjoy the scenery at night. I don't want to alarm the concubine, and I hope that the mother will forgive her sins. ”
"Of the lantern vault?" Pei Shuang was extremely displeased, lowered his head and sniffed, and inevitably put his hand in front of his nose: "How can this be reasonable, when you are on duty, you dare to drink too much." In front of the palace rules, are they all fictitious? Let's say that at this time, you are alone in this hidden place, where is the appearance of an errand? Is it so easy to fool Aunt Ben? ”
Xiao Liuzi panicked all of a sudden, and kowtowed again and again to ask for guilt. "The slave should die, the slave should die, please be kind to the concubine." It's just that because the errand of the lantern library is too light, Xiao Liuzi is depressed, so he hides in this imperial garden to drink to kill his sorrows. How could he have predicted that Concubine Ru would pass by at this time, and how could he know what kind of disaster his small negligence would lead to.
A heart trembled, and Xiao Liuzi didn't know what he could do except plead. The concubine in front of her is so high-minded, not angry and arrogant, how can she care about her own cheap life!
In the midst of loss, Xiao Liuzi suddenly felt that he was certain to die.
Sure enough, Concubine Ru just gave a light look. Pei Shuang raised his eyebrows awe-inspiringly, and said to Le Xi'er behind him: "Go, send it to the Criminal Division." The thirty boards taught him to be obedient, and it was up to him to see if he would dare to drink and collide with his master when he was on duty in the future. ”
Le Xi'er didn't dare to delay, and immediately dragged the little six sons back together with the two little eunuchs.
Between the resentments, Xiao Liuzi's drinking strength has finally passed, and he can't be sober anymore. He recognized Pei Shuang's appearance, and suddenly remembered the extremely cold and snowy day in winter.
"Sister, don't worry about this, it's just the negligence of the minions." Concubine Cheng looked at Ruyue's face gloomy, and persuaded politely: "If you say that you have to work hard, such a big Forbidden City and such a big palace, there is always a heart that can't be finished." But how to say, we are also ordinary people, where do we have so much mental energy. It's just a matter of getting by. ”
Ruyue was a little reluctant, and stroked her smooth and silky cheeks: "Sister's words, Ruyue doesn't understand." But just like that, we never know what will happen next. There are never peaceful days in the harem, and it is even more difficult to stand outside of right and wrong. I don't want to get by! ”
Looking at Concubine Ru, who was full of sadness but did not lose her demeanor, Concubine Cheng thought of a lot of past events and was ashamed of herself. "In the past, when I woke up, I regarded you as a fierce enemy. If nothing else, it is the extreme jealousy of your innate appearance. That's a congenital deficiency that others may not be able to make up for with their best efforts, but you are so blessed, how can I not complain? ”
I rarely think about the past, and when I listen to it now, Ruyue also misses it a lot. At that time, the girl's feelings had already decreased with the passage of time. What is left now can be regarded as pure sincerity? "Why did my sister suddenly remember the past?"
"Maybe I'm at this age, and I'm always sentimental. I remember the good times at every turn. Concubine Cheng smiled faintly, and held Ruyue's hand more and more hard: "You know, I slept for a few years." When I woke up, I was already different. Once upon a time, I thought that the queen would be able to support me through the rest of this life. At least, with the shade of the queen's big tree, life is not so sad.
But I don't want to, when my life was hanging by a thread, it was you who saved me regardless of my past suspicions. Looking back at my actions, I feel really sad in my heart. Since I mentioned it, Sister Ruyue, I have to sincerely apologize to you. All the things in the past are not my sister, I hope you don't take it to heart. ”
Ruyue stopped her steps and held Concubine Cheng's hand back: "I don't remember all the past Ruyue has long remembered, why should you put it in your heart, sister." Besides, isn't it great now! ”
Concubine Cheng nodded, and she was not ready to mention those unbearable past events. "It's cold at night, let's go quickly."
The two of them walked side by side tacitly. Xu is has someone by his side to accompany him, and the palace road with few people seems not so empty and silent.
When Mei Guiren returned to Changchun Palace, he felt that his stomach was not so comfortable. After tossing this day and suffering a lot of dislikes, her heart couldn't calm down. At this time, all kinds of discomfort stirred her heart up and down. She didn't dare to say it in front of others, and even her concubine couldn't trust it.
Now everyone around her is so good to her, isn't it just relying on the protection of the emperor's heir? What if...... This child really can't be saved, so how ugly should these red-topped and white faces become?
Zijia came in with a hot decoction, and when she saw Mei Guiren lying on the bed covered in cold sweat, she was so frightened that she almost knocked over the medicinal soup: "Nobleman, what's wrong with you?" Don't you feel uncomfortable, let the slave maid pass on the imperial doctor for you? ”
"I'm fine, you close the door first." Mei Guiren bit his lip flap so much that he was about to ooze blood, but he was unwilling to give in: "To change the clothes of the palace, I want to go to the imperial pharmacy by myself." ”
"It's too risky, and if something happens along the way, the slave can't afford it. If so, if you don't trust Imperial Doctor Shi, the slave just needs to invite someone else! Zijia knew that Shi Qianmo was a concubine, and her nobles were afraid that they would not be able to communicate with each other.
When the noble man heard this, his heart softened. In addition, the pain in my abdomen continues unabated, and I don't know if my decision is the right one. "It's not that I don't trust Imperial Doctor Shi, the dragon fetus in my womb is not good, I'm afraid our lives will not be long. If the concubine has long hated me to the bone, if she invites someone to come to the palace to see at this time, she will definitely alarm the concubines.
The concubine knows, and I'm afraid the emperor will know too. Once the emperor comes, the concubine will also come. I'm afraid that my situation can't compete with Concubine Ru.
Besides, don't look at it, the concubines treat me very well all day long, but if there is a difficulty, it must be as clear as you can be, and as much as you can leave. For fear of affecting themselves, why don't they immediately invite the emperor to come and see! Zi Jia's victory and defeat are here, I can't let the emperor know that the dragon fetus is unstable, do you understand? ”
Saying this, Mei Guiren seemed to strengthen his heart again. "Quickly change my clothes and take me to the Imperial Pharmacy. You have to find a credible person to read it, so that you can rest assured. ”
Zijia was also flustered, not knowing whether to listen to the words of the nobleman. "Noble, I'm afraid that if something goes wrong, we will be passive. The slave has no idea, how can this be good? ”
Mei Guiren took a few deep breaths and tried to calm himself down: "Don't mess around! My own body, I know it. I'm going to get through it. Hurry up and change my clothes, hurry up ......"
"Yes, slaves and maids listen to you, nobles." Although Zijia has not served Sula for a long time, this noble man treats him really well. Xu She was originally a slave and maid, and she can always understand people's difficulties. After coming and going, Zijia was also a little sincere. At this time, it is really difficult to see the noble people, and I feel the general sadness.
The two of them put on black cloaks and quietly walked out through an extremely inconspicuous side door of Changchun Palace.
Xu is spirit is support, Mei Guiren feels that she is not so uncomfortable, as if the child in the womb is particularly sensible, knowing the hardships of her mother, she is as obedient as possible.
Pressing his hand on his abdomen, Mei Guiren took a long breath: "Zijia, I feel much better, let's go quickly." Hurry up and find a royal doctor to see what the hell is going on. Whether Shi Qianmo has been lying about the situation of the dragon fetus, or whether he doesn't want me to give birth to a child smoothly at all, it will threaten the status of Concubine Ru. ”
Zi Jia listened to the voice of the charming nobleman, which was not as smooth and weak as Fang Cai, and she also had confidence in her heart: "Nobleman, you should relax, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain." I believe that we will be able to get through this difficulty. If others have any bad intentions, they can't eat and walk around. ”
Although this is an old truth, it is exactly what the nobles are thinking. "You're right, no matter how hard it is, this palace will hold on. Gotta hold on. Every step under her feet was extremely powerful, and Sula took Zijia's hand and clenched it hard: "No one knows how painful and difficult my journey has been.
You can't give up at this time, you can't throw in the towel at this time. Child, for the sake of Eniang, you must hold on. ”
