Chapter 240: The Sand in the Eyes

Lingxi's soft sentence contains too many different feelings. Hearing this, Mrs. Situ was stunned, and then looked at Lingxi's eyes with tears.

Lingxi smiled lightly, withdrew her hand from Mrs. Situ's arm, pointed to the pear wood carved chair and said, "Mrs. Situ, please sit down, I know in my heart that you still have to go to the noble concubine, but I still want to leave you for a cup of tea before leaving." ”

Mrs. Situ sat down on the position of Lingxi's finger, and immediately served a white jade teacup with a cigarette.

Lingxi sat back on the main seat, pointed to the tea cup on the table next to Mrs. Situ and said, "I don't know what kind of tea Mrs. Situ likes, before you come, the palace ordered someone to make a pot of jade Guanyin, and Mrs. Situ tasted it." ”

Mrs. Situ glanced at Lingxi, lowered her head slightly, and replied in a soft voice with a moderate volume, "Concubine Ying is polite." ”

After that, he picked up the white jade teacup and ate it.

Seeing that Mrs. Situ picked up the teacup and took a bite, Lingxi smiled and picked up the teacup offered by Qiaozhu, and drank the amber tea soup in the teacup into her mouth.

With a smile, Lingxi frowned slightly.

After putting down the teacup, Lingxi smiled again, "It's really a good thing that can't stand the time, this good Jade Guanyin should be sweet, but after a long time, it is extremely bitter and difficult to swallow." ”

Mrs. Situ didn't dare to look directly at Lingxi's smiling eyes, and said with a restrained smile, "It's okay, it's okay." ”

"Let's change it." Lingxi lazily waved his hand at Qiaozhu, raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Mrs. Situ is a distinguished guest, how can she drink this extremely bitter thing with this palace?" Just change, flower tea? Lingxi looked back at Mrs. Situ's slightly dodgy eyes and asked, "What kind of tea Mrs. Situ likes to drink, maybe there will be one in this hall of Xu Ben Palace." ”

"Flower tea is fine." Mrs. Situ's face was already slightly pale, and she said to Lingxi, "Niangniang's body, the things in the Niangniang Palace must be excellent." ”

Smoke and jade came up, and replaced the jade Guanyin that had been soaked for hours with the tea cup filled with flower tea.

Lingxi leaned back in the chair and said with a smile, "This palace has been lacking recently, so it's good for Mrs. Situ not to be surprised if you lean on it like this." ”

Mrs. Situ shook her head again and again, and said, "If the concubine doesn't dare, the mother is comfortable." ”

Lingxi asked Mrs. Situ to drink tea again, and when Mrs. Situ put the tea cup close to her mouth with trembling hands and drank it, Lingxi said with a smile, "In the past, the palace waited in front of Xiaohe and the Empress Dowager, and what was done was to serve tea and pour water. The Empress Dowager's favorite is the flower tea made in the palace......

"Concubine Ying is clever and intelligent, and the Empress Dowager must like it very much." Mrs. Situ said with a smile.

"Yes, the Empress Dowager is merciful, and other minions who do wrong things are rewarded with a precept to learn the rules. If this palace does something wrong, it is just to go to the Buddha hall to punish and kneel and think......"

The smile on Mrs. Situ's face could no longer be hung up.

Lingxi didn't see Mrs. Situ's face different, and continued to sigh, "This palace is an orphan, I grew up beside Xiao and the Empress Dowager, although I am a slave and a maid, but I have always been filial piety and the Empress Dowager is the grandmother of this palace, hey, Mrs. Situ, why are you crying?" ”

Mrs. Situ hurriedly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with the handkerchief in her hand, pulled a smile at the corner of her mouth, and said, "Concubine Yingniang saw a smile, and before entering the hall, there was sand in her eyes, and she grinded it badly......."

Lingxi stood up with the lotus leaf's hand in surprise, and Mrs. Situ quickly stood up when she saw this.

Lingxi Yingying walked in front of Mrs. Situ, looked directly at Mrs. Situ's reddish eyes, and said with a concerned face, "Into the sand?" It must have hurt a lot. Come and show the Hongu ......"

Lingxi let go of the lotus leaf's hand and raised Mrs. Situ's jaw slightly with her left hand. Looking at Mrs. Situ's pupils with her own figure, she smiled, "No, it's such a big grain of sand." This is a pain in the eyes for a while, if it falls in the heart, how can it be good? Isn't it going to hurt for the rest of your life? Lotus leaf ......"

The lotus leaf took a plain handkerchief at the right time and put it in the outstretched hand of the Lingxi.

Lingxi held a cotton handkerchief in his right hand, and his expression was serious, and he tapped at the corner of Mrs. Situ's eyes, and exhaled like an orchid, "This palace will wipe off this grain of sand for Mrs. Situ, so as not to provoke Mrs. Situ to cry again." ”

Mrs. Situ's eyes closed, and tears fell from the corners of her eyes, falling even harder.

Lingxi held the handkerchief for a moment, let go of Mrs. Situ's jaw, and said softly, "Mrs. Situ, don't cry anymore, if you continue to cry, the concubine still thinks that this palace is embarrassing her biological mother......

Mrs. Situ opened her eyes and looked at Lingxi Ruhua smiling, and choked up, "Over the years, I have suffered you ......."

"No," Lingxi turned sideways and didn't look at Mrs. Situ, the steps on her head swayed slightly because of her movements, "The palace is very good, with fine clothes and jade food, holy grace in the body, and the child is young but he was crowned king early." This is something that no number of people can ask for......"

"But I, but the concubine heard that Niangniang's body ......" Mrs. Situ's eyes looked at Lingxi's body, as if to confirm that her words were true.

"Hongu's body is also very good." Lingxi held the hand of the lotus leaf, sat down on the main seat again, and said to the guest, "It's not too early, I think I'm already in a hurry to come to Xian's concubine, Mrs. Situ should go to her." If you and I are destined, we will definitely meet again in the future......"

Mrs. Situ didn't dare to disobey Lingxi's intentions, so she could only retire with tears in her eyes. When she turned around and walked to the door of the hall, she heard the lotus leaf say to Lingxi, "Niangniang, it's time to take medicine......

Mrs. Situ clutched her chest, her heart was broken, she wanted to cry but was afraid that her tears would cause unnecessary trouble. could only endure it and leave with the little eunuch who led her.

After returning to the inner hall, Lingxi took the decoction that replenished qi and blood, and swallowed it with a frown.

After drinking it, he rinsed his mouth before he asked the lotus leaf, "The person who delivered the medicine said that he didn't say how long he would drink this medicine?" ”

Lotus Ye handed the white jade bowl with a little medicine left to Han Yan, shook his head and said, "The medicine boy left a seven-day amount of medicine, and said that Imperial Doctor Wang said that this medicine is the most nourishing, and it is better to drink it often." ”

"It's too bitter." Lingxi frowned and said, "Didn't you say that the medicine was three points poisonous?" I drink like this every day, I'm afraid that the qi and blood will make up for it, and other problems will come again. ”

Lotus Ye hurriedly snorted a few times and said, "Niangniang, you are in good health." When you replenish your qi and blood, you won't have any discomfort. ”

Qiaozhu took a bowl of slightly iced pear water and handed it to Lingxi, and said with a smile, "Niangniang, the slave knows that you are afraid of hardship." So I prepared this iced pear water early in the morning, and you drank some to suppress the sourness in your stomach. ”

Lingxi took the white jade bowl, drank the yellowish pear water in the bowl slowly, tasted it, and said with a smile, "Slightly sweet, just cook some for the five princesses and the five princes to drink." ”

Qiaozhu said, "I boiled a cup and sent it to the fifth princess and the fifth prince earlier." Because it was ice, I didn't dare to let them drink more, after all, the weather was cold. ”

The master and servant talked and laughed for a while, and Xiao Dezi came in from outside, bowed his head and said to Lingxi, "Niangniang, Mrs. Situ came out after staying in the Half Moon Pavilion for less than half an hour, although the expression on her face was calm, there was a faint anger in her eyes. ”

Lingxi raised his eyebrows, and said slowly after a moment of silence, "Is it because I'm in a hurry?" Did I poke her scar too much today? ”

"Niangniang, Mrs. Situ is already ashamed of you in her heart. No matter what you do today, Mrs. Situ can't calm down in her heart. Lotus Ye said softly, "One is her biological daughter who was lost since she was a child and survived several lives and deaths in the palace, and the other is an adopted daughter who grew up in Situ Mansion and has been soaked in honey, how can she feel good in her heart in comparison?" ”

"This is the heart of a mother." Lingxi leaned on the bamboo couch, pointed to the big fish tank in the courtyard that had broken the lotus, and said, "Xiao Dezi, move those big fish tanks." It's only been a few days, and this night the lotus has been defeated......"

Xiao Dezi said yes, and went down.

Emperor Yong'an's three letters were sent to Fengyang Palace, as if they had fallen into a quagmire, and no news was returned.

By the end of September, the concubines of the harem speculated that Xiaohe and the Empress Dowager might not return to the palace. After all, the Empress Dowager Xiaohe is now in her seventies, so the toss of Fengyang in the capital is better to quietly retire in the Fengyang Palace for the rest of her life.

Concubine Ying is the most enjoyable of all the concubines, but she is also the most gnashing of teeth.

Xiaohe and the Empress Dowager do not return to the palace, she is the most powerful woman in the harem, although she is not in the back position, but after all, she is the assistant of the six palaces and is respected as the head of the four concubines.

Gritting her teeth was to welcome Xiao and the Empress Dowager back to the palace, and she spent a lot of silver to clean up the Yongshou Palace. Even the Luomei Xuan at the back of the Changle Palace, which specializes in flowers and plants, has sent craftsmen to take care of it again.

Xiaohe and the Empress Dowager did not return to the palace, and all the flattering actions she did were in vain, and it was inevitable that the concubines would mutter a few sarcastic words in the back.

In early October, only the golden chrysanthemum and the snow-like wood hibiscus remained in the small garden of the Deyang Palace.

The concubines in the harem are also like those delicate flowers that have been beaten by autumn frost, and they all bow down like flowers one by one.

Emperor Yong'an has not entered the harem for more than two months.

Without the emperor's favor, what are they fighting for? What else do they have to show off?

Concubine Ying went to Taihe Palace to persuade her very righteously at the end of September, but the final result was that she was invited back by Emperor Yong'an before she entered the Zichen Palace.

No one knows what Emperor Yong'an asked Gonggong Feng to pass on to Concubine Ying, but Concubine Ying has not been there since.

In the harem, when everyone was worried about grace, the Deyang Palace began to be haunted again.

On the night of the second day of October, the 'ghost' that Lingxi had been waiting for for for half a month finally appeared. The ghost floated to the dormitory where the five princesses lived in the middle of the night, and the five princesses screamed in fright, and fell ill the next day.

On the fifth day of the first month of October, the 'ghost' stood outside the window of the main hall of the Deyang Hall with a bright red tongue, and was so frightened that the smokey eyes of the night guard rolled and fainted.

On the seventh night of the first month of October, when many palace people were sleepy, the 'ghost' floated to the dormitory where the five princes lived......
