Chapter 42: The Protector's Lotus
"Why does my sister have to do this? In the future, they will all be a family, and they really don't need so many courtesies. Concubine Li smiled softly.
She even reached out to pull Shan Muxi.
Suddenly being courted like this by a woman in the palace, Shan Muxi was not used to it, and subconsciously retreated.
Xianghe gently pushed Shan Muxi from the side, making her and Concubine Li closer, and reminded Shan Muxi with her eyes not to refuse Concubine Li's kindness.
Concubine Li pretended not to see these small movements of the master and servant, and she still smiled on her face: "Knowing that my sister is not in good health, I ordered the small kitchen to make a big tonic soup for my sister." I sent it to my sister. ”
Can you drink it?
Shan Muxi is someone who has watched a few episodes of palace fighting dramas!
She was suspicious, but she still said thank you lightly.
Entering the Wutong Palace, Concubine Li first disliked that there were only chrysanthemums here for a while, which was very monotonous, and then told Xiao Fangzi to wait and pick some good flowers.
In fact, Fang Muxi only likes chrysanthemums, and when the eunuchs rearranged the Wutong Palace, she told her that only chrysanthemums are needed now. However, Concubine Li immediately showed her goodwill, and she couldn't refuse, so she had to thank her obediently.
"Ahem"
Xiao Fangzi faked a cough and raised the food box in his hand to remind his master.
Concubine Li patted her head: "Look at my memory!" The soup I made for my sister was almost cold. ”
After saying that, Xiao Fangzi took out the soup cup in the food box very knowledgeable.
Seeing that the soup cup was not small, Xianghe took two bowls and divided the soup into two bowls.
Concubine Li looked at the two bowls of tonic soup and took a deep breath: "Well, it's good, it's quite fragrant." I asked the small kitchen to simmer for two hours, which not only tasted good, but also helped my sister to replenish her body. Sister, let's drink the soup quickly. ”
Do you really want to drink it?
Shan Muxi glanced at the soup, which was based on black chicken, with a strong aroma, but he didn't know what medicinal herbs were added, and even the soup was blackened.
Capturing Concubine Xian's gaze, Shan Muxi always felt that her smile was a little creepy.
It was rumored in the palace that Concubine Li was gentle, but yesterday Shan Muxi saw that Punch Yu's face was a little bruised.
She asked the punchline what was going on with her face. The punchline was a little flustered, saying that he accidentally bumped into the door, and the injury on his face was caused by himself.
But it was obviously five finger prints.
Fighting a dog depends on the face of the owner, except for the master, no one in this palace will beat the palace maid of the emperor's favorite concubine.
Concubine Li, who was at the gate of the Wutong Hall just now, was not so kind to the two cats, which made Shan Muxi feel that her tea polyphenol content was a little high.
On the surface, who is not a virtuous lady in the palace who is not pretending to be virtuous and knowledgeable? Only in one's own turf can one be truly oneself.
At this time, looking at these two bowls of black medicinal soup, Shan Muxi thanked him in his mouth, but did not reach out to pick it up.
Concubine Li saw her suspicions, and still smiled like that, it really seemed to be the kind that could make people's bones crispy: "My sister is about to drink this medicinal soup, and she will be ten years younger if she drinks it!" ”
This tone is seductive.
Shan Muxi also smiled: "My sister doesn't want to be ten years younger alone, my sister also drinks, is it okay for one of us to be five years younger?" ”
Aren't there two bowls of soup? Shan Muxi wanted to pull Concubine Li to drink together.
The smile on Concubine Li's face was a little stiff: "...... Sister this is ......"
didn't expect Shan Muxi to openly show his distrust of her, the new emperor's favorite concubine, and Concubine Li was a little displeased.
Suddenly the scene was a little cold.
Shan Muxi tilted his head and looked at Concubine Li smiling without saying a word.
"Oops......"
Xianghe suddenly screamed, her feet were weak, and she almost fainted.
Xiao Fangzi held her up, and asked reproachfully, "Xianghe, what are you doing?" So careless! Disturbed the master, and the ass is ready to bloom! ”
Xianghe's face was full of guilt: "Xianghe didn't mean it, the girl's family came to menstruation, the amount was a bit much, and the doctor said that my body was too weak." ”
Shan Muxi immediately understood what Xianghe meant: she wanted to drink the medicinal soup for Shan Muxi!
At that moment, Shan Muxi was a little flustered: "You girl! If you are weak, go back and rest! If you fall before us, it will be as if someone had meant you! ”
But Xianghe didn't listen to her words and retreated, her eyes were still looking at the two bowls of medicinal soup on the table: "Beauty, the emperor personally regulates your body for you, saying that you are weak and can't eat too much." Why don't you give that bowl of medicinal soup to Xianghe? ”
"You ......" Shan Muxi looked back at her, with anger in his eyes: "You gluttonous girl!" The broth was given to me by Concubine Li! How can I reward you again, ignoring Concubine Li's kindness to me! ”
Xianghe didn't speak, her eyes were begging, and she looked at Concubine Li pitifully.
Concubine Li, who hadn't spoken for a long time, finally smiled reluctantly: "Oh, what are you doing with the master and servant?" Since my sister is not replenished, then I will be the master, and this soup will be given to Xianghe! ”
"Ignore this girl! It's only been a few days, and I've spoiled her......" Shan Muxi also tried to stop it.
Xianghe smiled, and couldn't help but get up and drink the two bowls of medicinal soup as quickly as possible.
She choked on the way, but she didn't even bother coughing.
Shan Muxi's heart was hairy, and the hands under the table were nervously clenched into fists, and the palms of his hands were sweating.
After Xianghe drank the medicinal soup and kowtowed to thank him, he walked out.
Concubine Li looked at her back with a smile: "Sister is really blessed, this girl has only been with you for a long time, and she gets along like a sister." is also bold, and dares to take the initiative to ask you for rewards. ”
Shan Muxi knew that she had something to say, but she was worried about Xianghe, so she had to smile reluctantly, which could be regarded as a wake-up call for Concubine Li: "This girl dares to take the initiative to ask me for rewards, she has the courage to borrow it from the emperor, she has served the emperor for many years, and the emperor is quite accustomed to her." ”
Concubine Li was stunned for a moment, and glanced back at Xiao Fangzi: "Look at it, why do people like the master so much?" It's not like you, who followed Grandpa Li for so long, but was thrown into garbage by Grandpa Li! ”
Xiao Fangzi laughed dryly twice and didn't speak.
At this time, Jiangzhu came back from picking flowers outside, recklessly entered the hall, and saw Concubine Li here, panicked for a while, and quickly knelt down: "The slave sees Concubine Li's mother." ”
"Get up!" Concubine Li glanced at the flower basket in her hand with a look of disgust: "Why are all white chrysanthemums?" Do you have a little bit of appreciation? ”
These white chrysanthemums were picked by Shan Muxi.
Jiang Zhu grinned: "What level of appreciation does the slave have?" Slaves, what the master likes, the slave likes. ”
Concubine Li, this is a little embarrassing.
Where did Shan Muxi have the heart to listen to what they said, he was anxious, but he still had to tell Jiang Zhu with an unchanged face: "Hurry up and find Xianghe, and go with her to the imperial doctor to grab some prescriptions to stop the bleeding." The girl's family will come every month, and she will always work so hard to drag her body down? ”
Jiangzhu nodded, and was about to go out, Shan Muxi instructed again: "You must ask Xianghe to go with you!" Her body is only clear to herself! ”
Jiangzhu went down, but Shan Muxi became more and more uneasy.
Concubine Li actually saw it, so she got up and said goodbye.
As soon as he came out of the Wutong Palace, a cold smile appeared on Concubine Li's kind face: "Xiao Fangzi, this little slut is very wary of us!" ”
Xiao Fangzi lowered his head and smiled: "Niangniang, you can rest assured that I will do things!" ”
