Chapter 22: It seems to add sea water to the uterine drain

Hongli came in with the imperial doctor, standing far away on one side, it seemed that he was very different from Concubine Xi and Hongday, and it was difficult to integrate into the picture scroll of filial piety of mother and son. He didn't know whether he should be happy or sad, he entered the palace at the age of ten, and was taught by his grandfather, Emperor Kangxi, and pampered on his knees.

This is a blessing that others can't ask for, but because of this, he really broke off the mother-son relationship between him and Eniang. And Hongday, it seems that God specially arranged it to make him jealous.

The three imperial doctors are all experienced national players, and they have received the will of Concubine Xi and cooperate with each other to administer needles to the emperor.

Concubine Xi looked at the silver swaying needletips, silently stabbing into the acupuncture points on the emperor's body, and there was an inexplicable tingling pain in her heart. When the imperial doctor explained to her that the emperor's illness could only have a glimmer of life if the needle was administered as soon as possible, she did not allow it immediately, but dragged people to invite the two elder brothers over. seems to be a calm decision, is it for the sake of the emperor, or is it ......

In the box behind the Zhengda Guangming plaque in the Qianqing Palace, should the holy decree be taken out? Concubine Xi closed her eyes gently, not letting people see the faint and sensible light in her eyes, and she suddenly hoped that her Hongli could ascend the throne as the emperor peacefully. On this day, she has been looking forward to it since the day Hongli was born, and it is also a straight way Now, she finally feels very close to "wishing to be fulfilled".

But will he really wake up? Will he really get better after the injection?

Concubine Xi turned her face, only to see Hongtian twisting her eyebrows at her side nearby, with a heavy and frightened look, which made people feel distressed. "Don't worry, your Emperor Ama will be fine." She comforted him and said something insincere.

Hongyang nodded lightly: "Erchen saw that Xi Niangniang has lost a lot of money, and it must be difficult to live in the bedroom these days." Go back and ask someone to send some good ginseng to replenish your body. ”

Hongli couldn't help but smile, it was a kind of alienated smile that maintained his identity, and the politeness would make people think that he was an outsider at all.

And such a smile, Concubine Yu clearly fell into her eyes, and her heart suddenly panicked. The medicine bowl in his hand couldn't help but be crooked, but fortunately, he held it in time, and only spilled a little. She calmed down, calmly took the decoction, walked in slowly, and blessed Concubine Xi: "Niangniang, the emperor's medicine can be boiled." ”

Hongli and Hongday saluted at the same time to greet Concubine Yu, but no one said anything, for fear of disturbing the imperial doctor, causing the position of the needle to be shifted.

Concubine Xi was different, she turned around worriedly, smiled and said to Concubine Yu: "Just let the palace people do these things." It's hard for you to do it yourself, be careful in everything. ”

Concubine Yu put the medicine on the round table, breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a wry smile: "Concubine Lao is worried." Even if the concubine rests in her own palace, it is difficult to be peaceful, so it is better to find something to do and save her crankiness. ”

Nodding, Concubine Xi turned back again, and a chill flashed on her calm face: "In the past half a year, the emperor has been lingering on the sickbed, and the only one in the harem who can do his best for the palace is Concubine Yu." ”

This seems to be a thoughtful sentence between sisters, and it can even be described as a confidant. However, Concubine Yu's heart couldn't help but tremble, and the corners of her lips stiffened so that she couldn't smile. Fortunately, she was only unnatural for a moment, and then regained her calmness: "The concubine is really incompetent, and she can't help anything, and what she can reach out for is the kung fu of decoction and medicine." Thanks to the presence of Concubine Xi, the harem will not be chaotic. ”

If you say that there is no arrogance, presumably Concubine Xi will not believe it. But when she was young, she couldn't fight her anymore, not to mention that at this time, the emperor may not be able to wake up, how can she fight for favor. Didn't the power of the harem be held in the palm of her Concubine Xi early in the morning?

Concubine Yu tried her best not to show her feelings, and she didn't even dare to look at Hongday. If there is anything else that makes Concubine Xi feel uneasy, it must be Hongday. If the emperor returns to heaven, only Hongli can threaten Hongli's status, so how will Concubine Xi treat Hongli? Will you miss all these years of nurturing?

Her heart was trembling, Concubine Yu was really afraid, and her fair face revealed a cold blue light. has been suppressed by Concubine Xi over the years, and she has tried to save her life, just because she still has the memory of Hongday. That's all her hope and sustenance, don't ask him to be the emperor once, but just ask him to be safe.

But will Concubine Xi believe her and Hongday? What kind of mind does Hongtian himself have? Concubine Yu didn't dare to think about it anymore, closed her eyes in pain, and secretly prayed to the gods to bless her, so that what she was worried about would not happen.

After Imperial Doctor Chen administered the last injection, a smile appeared on his serious face: "Concubine Xi, please rest assured, I want to come to the emperor for the time being, there is no big problem." The old minister will prescribe another prescription, with acupuncture and moxibustion, to dredge the meridians for the emperor, remove the cold poison in the body, and restore the emperor's vitality. ”

Imperial Doctor Zhang is not as optimistic as Imperial Doctor Chen, and he does not completely agree with what he said: "Concubine Xi Gui Niangniang, please forgive the old minister's outspoken sin, the emperor has been sick for half a year, even if the foundation of the dragon body is good, it is now extremely weak." Although the meridians have been dredged, they are ...... after all If there is any accident during the period, I am afraid that ......"

"So what the hell is going on?" Concubine Xi's voice was cold, and her tone could show her impetuous mood at the moment.

The three imperial doctors were all shocked, knelt down tremblingly, and said in unison: "The ministers must do their best to protect the emperor and the dragon's health." ”

Concubine Xi sighed lightly, and her tone was gentle: "That's it, as long as the emperor is safe and sound." You are waiting in the ear room outside the Xinuan Pavilion in turn, so that you can treat the emperor at any time. ”

"Huh." The three of them responded respectfully and slowly retreated.

Hongli stepped forward to serve the decoction and medicine, wanting to feed the emperor in person, and do his best. Before his hand touched the medicine bowl, he heard Concubine Xi instruct Yafu: "The emperor should also take medicine, look at the medicine soup is still warm!" ”

Yafu nodded, and took the bowl before the fourth elder brother: "Don't work for the fourth elder brother to do it, let the slave and maid come." ”

Retracting his hand, Hongli didn't know what to do. Hongtian kindly stepped forward and said with a smile: "The fourth brother rushed over all the way, and his mouth must be dry. Xi Niangniang has the best Pu'er here, do you want to try it? ”

Hongli thanked him politely, and Wu Zi stepped forward and said to Concubine Xi: "Since the imperial doctor has already administered the needle for the emperor's ama, there is no big problem in thinking about it." Erchen did not delay Concubine Xi's rest, and retired first. ”

The five words "Xi Guifei Niangniang" have a heavy weight, pressing on her chest like a heavy mountain. Do the sons of his relatives have to be separated from himself like this? Concubine Xi smiled slightly and nodded kindly. It's rare to see him, and he must be reluctant to leave Hongli like this, so he said: "It's not too late to drink tea to moisten your throat and go back." ”

The little palace maid holding the tea cup respectfully served the tea in front of Hongli, which was no different from the one in Hongday.

"Thank you for your kindness." Hongli was still smiling, not letting people see her sincerity: "This tea is the fifth brother's favorite, how can the sons win people's favor." Quit. Turning around, Hongli resolutely did not look back. If he doesn't look back, he must not be able to see the loss in his mother's eyes.

Concubine Yu opened her mouth, a little embarrassed and didn't know what to say.

On the contrary, Concubine Xi quickly concealed her sincerity, and said to Hongday: "It's rare for you to enter the palace once, send your Eniang back to the palace to rest, and talk well." The emperor is here, accompanied by the palace. ”

"Thank you, Lady Gui." A trace of joy flashed in Concubine Yu's eyes, shallow like a sparkling wave, and quickly swept away.

"Xi Niangniang, the minister has taken his leave." Hongtian arched his hand, cheerful and smiling, revealing neat teeth.

"Go ahead." Concubine Xi's loving gaze is very gentle, looking like the afterglow of autumn, which inexplicably makes people feel the fruitful autumn and the desolation behind it. I feel more and more that she is a mystery at all, a mystery that no one can guess.

"Why don't you refuse the kindness of the concubine?" Walking out of the Heart Cultivation Palace, Hong Tiancai asked coldly.

The attendants and the inner attendants followed the two from a distance, keeping just the right distance, and they couldn't hear the fifth elder brother's question.

Concubine Yu sighed silently, and then slowly said after a sigh of relief: "It's rare for Eniang to be able to talk to you, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

"To see or not to see, aren't I here for good?" Hongtian was slightly impatient, and anxiety and anger faintly emanated from his body, so that others did not dare to get close to him.

Originally, she didn't want to say it, but Concubine Yu couldn't help but say it softly: "Do you hate Eniang so much?" ”

"Hate?" Hongtian glanced at Concubine Yu coldly: "I can't talk about it." Wu raised his head and looked at the sky, white clouds, clear sky, everything was so far away. The more and more he was very small, and the insignificance made him afraid. It's like a speck of dust suspended in the air, and it may be a matter of a snap of a finger when it disappears with the wind.

"You don't know that the only thing the emperor values most in his heart is Concubine Xi. If you hadn't been raised under her knees, how would you have been okay so far? Concubine Yu said this, full of sourness: "Eniang is useless, and it is not easy to barely be promoted to the concubine position." I can't help you anymore...... Make your wish come true. E-Niang wants to persuade you, peace is a great blessing, covet what should not be coveted, just afraid of provoking fire......"

Hongday's face was extremely gloomy, thinking that he had endured to the bottom line: "The beloved son of parents has far-reaching plans." You're not optimistic about it, do you still expect others to help? ”

"Hongday." Concubine Yu bit her lip, and her reproach was full of worry: "In the past, when Kangxi Ye was alive, he valued the fourth elder brother Hongli. The emperor loves the house and Wu, and his mind must be roughly like this. Going against the sky is not good after all. What's more, what's wrong with the idle prince, the palace is a big cage, and no matter how many people want to break free, they can't escape, why do you ......"

"Concubine Yu, take care, Hongtian has retired." As soon as these words came out, Hongday did not want to stay for half a minute longer, and brushed his sleeves away.

"The fourth elder brother is not as simple as you think, Hongday, Eniang will not harm you." Concubine Yu's voice was very soft, and it was quickly blown away by the wind, leaving no trace.
