Chapter Seventy-Four: The New Favorite (1)
Such a rude act, even a clay figure will give birth to some blood, Jiang Shi stabilized his body, and said coldly: "I don't know what sister means by this!" Although my sister's background is not as good as my sister's, she is also the same wife as my sister, so how can I allow these rough people to come to my room and rummage around. ”
The words were sonorous and powerful, Zheng's heart was annoyed, she thought of her dignified prime minister's wife, and finally had to sit on an equal footing with a foot-washing maid, but fortunately, now Lan Xin has entered the palace, and her daughter may not be stable when the time comes, thinking of this, Zheng's smile is indeed more and more gentle, she said apologetically: "I'm really sorry, it's not that my sister wants to be embarrassed for my sister, it's just that a few days ago, Xin'er said that she dropped her earrings in her sister's house, and she hasn't found them, and she will enter the palace in a few days, and this child is very anxious, I had no choice but to tell my master. I got permission to come to my sister's palace to look for it. ”
Jiang's chest continued to rise and fall, as if something was about to explode, she stared at Zheng's eyes and said word by word: "That sister has to look for it carefully, after all, Concubine Hui has just entered the palace, and many things still need the help of her mother's family." ”
Zheng seemed to be dismissive of Jiang's words, and let his servants command those rough subordinates to constantly rummage, if it weren't for Jiang's status as a flat wife, maybe they would have to find the bed, Jiang's face was bruised, embarrassed and embarrassed, but he had to endure it.
Suddenly, a mother-in-law called out loudly: "Big lady, I found it, I found it." ”
Zheng glanced at Jiang Shi, snorted coldly, and said to the people below: "Since you have found it, go back, the things in the courtyard of the eldest lady have not been cleaned up yet." ”
Immediately turned around, looked at the mess in the room, and said apologetically: "Look at these people, they are clumsy, and they have turned my sister's house upside down, but I don't have enough manpower here, so I'll bother my sister to tidy it up by herself." ”
After speaking, he smiled and walked to his yard with the help of the maid.
Jiang's fingers were almost embedded in the door, and the personal maid beside her said in a stalk: "Isn't it just to enter the palace and become a concubine, the eldest lady is also too deceitful, the second lady, we must send a letter to the queen's mother, you look at the appearance of the eldest lady and the eldest lady, it is obvious that they want to cross the queen's mother." ”
Jiang Shi didn't say anything, and instructed the little maid to tidy up the things that were discarded everywhere in the house, while thinking carefully about how to see Lan Ruo.
On June 16, the day when Lan Xin entered the palace, it was not a big deal, but because of Lan Xin's different identity, the queen specially held a flower viewing banquet to celebrate Lan Xin. The palaces received the news.
When the news arrived at the Hehuan Palace, He Xi was holding the pear juice stewed by Mama Yu herself, which was mixed with finely crushed ice, which was the most refreshing.
After eating half a bowl, and wanted to eat it again, Ruyi snatched the bowl in He Xi's hand, and complained in a low voice: "The little master is not in good health, and he is still greedy for cold all day long, and if he has a leg disease, His Majesty will blame us slaves again." ”
When the ugly child came back from outside, she heard Ruyi say this, and then said: "Sister Ruyi is right, little master, you should let the slaves and maids worry less." ”
If you think that the ugly child also said so, nodding with concern, He Xi clapped his hands, and said helplessly: "If you don't eat, you won't eat, but although you don't let me eat, but I'm still a good master with a conscience, Mama Yu has made a lot, and there are two bowls for you to chill, go eat it, go to the heat." ”
The two maids glanced at each other, responded delicately, turned around and went out.
Looking at the figures of the two, He Xi suddenly felt a sense of happiness in her heart, Ruyi's cautious temperament but also with the delicate character of a girl, it can be regarded as cheerful and ugly, because of that incident, she has always lived in hatred, but there are many gloomy and lifeless things that her peers do not have, and it is rare to see her smile like this.
Her mood relaxed.
In a short time, the two girls returned happily, and before they could enter the temple gate, they could hear the laughter of the two of them like silver bells. At this time, Tuoba Chen in the Hehuan Hall looked back and said: "Concubine Ai's palace is indeed more casual and relaxed than other places, but you can't see such a situation elsewhere. ”
"It's all child's nature, and I'm used to playing around on weekdays, and Your Majesty doesn't blame the concubines for not being strict." Tuoba Chen pulled He Xi to sit beside him, and said softly: "Obviously they are a few years old, but they are old-fashioned when they talk. ”
He Xi lowered his head and didn't speak, Ruyi and Chou'er saw such a scene when they entered the hall, the two sat next to each other, He Xi seemed to hang his head a little shyly, and Tuoba Chen's eyes were gentle.
Ruyi hurriedly put a playful look on her face, and waited respectfully, but the ugly child was in the same place, she had seen this situation thousands of times, and her vision was a little blurred, Ruyi noticed the abnormality of the ugly child, and couldn't help but pull the sleeve of the ugly child.
The ugly child also hurriedly put her look aside, the white porcelain bowl in her hand was filled with a little frost, and the wall of the bowl became slippery and sticky, she could only hold it firmly, for fear that she would fall in the next second.
"What's wrong with your leg problem?" Tuoba Chen put his hand on He Xi's knee, He Xi endured the nausea, and by getting up, she dodged it, she took out the prescription that Lu Chuan had prescribed for herself from her makeup, turned around and returned to the front of the case, and sat opposite Tuoba Chen very naturally, and said softly: "Thanks to the hot spring in the Lu Taiyi Hospital, it has been much better, this is the prescription prescribed by the Lu Imperial Doctor to the concubine, and the concubine is also very effective when she drinks it." ”
Tuoba Chen didn't know medical skills, and he only knew the medicinal materials on it, he picked it up and looked at it carefully, and said with a smile: "Lu Chuan is the holy hand of medicine in my calendar, and there are no incurable diseases that he can't see." Aifei will rest assured. ”
He Xi seemed to have thought of something, rolled his eyes, and said again: "The concubine heard that there is also a Wei Zhongliang in the Imperial Hospital, Imperial Physician Wei, and his medical skills are not under Imperial Physician Lu, but there is such a person?" ”
Tuoba Chen nodded and said: "But there is this person, but he is the queen's imperial physician and the queen's trust." He didn't say anything, but his tone lacked the full appreciation and pride when he talked about Lu Chuan.
"How did Concubine Ai know about him?" He asked casually.
He Xi said with a smile: "It's also a coincidence, when the concubine's slave maid went to the Tai Hospital to get medicine, she once heard that the imperial physician Wei went to the sea, and she was going to take the position of the envoy of the Tai Hospital within a few years, so she thought that she had real ability." So the concubine asked. ”
But he didn't want Tuoba Chen's expression to become colder and colder, but he didn't say anything, and He Xi didn't say it anymore.
At this time, Tuoba Chen looked up and saw that the portrait of the sleeping beauty that He Xi had hung on the wall before was gone, and asked suspiciously, "Why is that painting missing?" ”
He Xi said with a smile: "The concubine sent the painting to Chuxiu Palace. ”
Tuoba Chen's expression was dazed, and his face seemed to be a little displeased, but He Xi added: "The concubine wants to trouble Sister Bai Zhi to embroider a group fan for the concubine, this is full of palaces, presumably only Sister Bai Zhi can do this." ”
Tuoba Chen softened his face a little, and said: "Her embroidery is indeed the best, don't forget to show me after embroidery, if I am satisfied, I will reward her well." ”
He Xi got up first, bowed softly to Tuoba Chen, and said gently: "Then the concubine will thank Your Majesty for the reward of the concubine." ”
But before He Xi got up, a panicked little eunuch ran in outside, and the ugly child was the first to react, stopping the little eunuch at the door and whispering: "What's wrong with the panic?" Your Majesty and the little lord are inside, don't be disturbed. ”
The little eunuch didn't expect Tuoba Chen to be there, his expression was a little hesitant, and he said after a while: "Sister Chou'er, the little one is from Chuxiu Palace, and the little master sent me to invite the little master of Xi Concubine, saying that the painting is dirty-"
The ugly child's eyes didn't understand, but he just nodded and said, "I know, you go back first, and I will report to the little master." ”
After speaking, he turned around and walked in the direction of the inner hall, and the little eunuch ran towards Chuxiu Palace without stopping.
He Xi looked at Chou'er and asked, "What's wrong with Fang Cai?" Panic in front of Your Majesty, what does it look like! ”
The ugly child replied respectfully: "Little master, something happened to Chuxiu Palace, and the little lady said that the painting you sent before was dirty." He Xi shook suddenly, took a step forward as if in disbelief, and said coldly: "You said at the time, this painting is ......."
"Back to the words of the little master, the slaves and maids have all said, this painting is His Majesty's imperial pen, reminding talented people to keep ......" The ugly child hurriedly knelt down, looking sincerely frightened.
He Xi felt a bright yellow figure stand up, only to hear Tuoba Chen say in a deep voice: "Just take a look at what happened, Fuqing, set up the Chuxiu Palace." ”
Tuoba Chen and He Xi walked towards Chuxiu Palace in a sedan chair one after the other, and on the sedan chair, He Xi's expression was faint, and he didn't see the anxious look at all, but he looked like he was in a good place.
When he arrived at Chuxiu Palace, Ruyi helped He Xi get off the sedan chair, followed behind Tuoba Chen, as soon as Fang entered the palace, he saw Bai Zhi with the palace people coming out to greet the salute, her skirt was stained with a water stain, it should be too late to change clothes, her eyes were red, she bit her lip tightly, and said in a trembling voice: "The concubine sees Your Majesty, the little master of Xi Concubine." ”
He Xi glanced around, and sure enough, she saw that the personal maid beside Bai Zhi was kneeling behind her with a pale face at this time, and her body couldn't help but tremble slightly. And sure enough, she did.
"Get up, I heard that you defiled Concubine Xi's paintings?" Tuoba Chen looked in the direction of Bai Zhi without a trace of emotion, Bai Zhi's face turned pale, and he hurriedly kowtowed: "The concubine is guilty, the concubine deserves to die, and please spare your majesty's life." ”
He Xi took half a step forward and stood behind Tuoba Chen.
