Chapter Ninety-Eight: Come Prepared (I)

The thick decoction smelled in a delicate bowl of silver and stone, and I flipped through the art of war in my hand, but my mind was completely absent from it, and I could not read it in the slightest.

The maid brought the decoction and stirred the hot liquid with a spoon.

The reason why I use silver is to prevent others from poisoning, I am on the cusp of the storm, I am the target of everyone, and the slightest sloppiness will put me in danger. This was also said by Bei Yuliang.

But what he didn't know was that in addition to poisoning, there were endless ways for people who wanted me to die, and anyone with a little brain would not use poisoning to provoke himself.

I set the book aside, and the maid quietly stepped back.

The most critical thing in the harem should be that Bei Yuliang also disobeyed everyone and named me a concubine, but he never invited me to sleep in the past half a month, and he even never came to Jinyun Palace.

Sometimes I think I know him well, and sometimes I realize I don't.

He has the same blood in his bones as Beiyu Jinchen, so I can't understand him.

He got what he wanted, but did nothing.

The moon tonight is as soft and beautiful as it is seen on the mountains during the Chinese New Year.

I stood by the window and listened to the whispers of the palace maids outside.

They are talking about some trivial things, as well as expectations for future marriage. I suddenly remembered that when I first entered the palace, I followed Mu Han and was lazy and noisy during the day, listening to her describe the appearance of her future husband.

"Eh, haven't you heard, the youngest daughter of the Zuo Xiang family is back."

"The first beauty of Beiyan who came back to life? I know, I've seen it. ”

I wanted to close the window and go back to my room, but what they were talking about had to stop me from what I was doing.

"You said, Prince Xuan has a continuation, but the former princess is back, so who is the princess? Do you think you will end up as a flat wife? ”

"What are you, this will offend the two families. In my opinion, when Prince Xuan married Mincha, it was the marriage referred to by the first emperor, but Mincha died three days before they got married, no, it was a fake death. Then, Prince Xuan recorded her as his beloved wife in the family tree to express his longing, which shows that in fact, the marriage between the two of them is in name only, and it is not established. The current Princess Xuan is the real princess......"

"Do you know that our mother seems to have a very different relationship with the prince."

"You're crazy! Dare to talk about our mother, ten heads are not enough to cut ......"

"Ahem...... Xia Xiying coughed twice, the two palace maids were frightened, looked up and saw me, and knelt down in unison and shouted for mercy.

I waved my hand and told them to go down. I closed the window casually, and I felt a little dizzy.

Xia Xiying put the stove in my arms, took the medicine that had been warmed up again, and sighed: "Your body is not fully well, drink the medicine." Don't think about some things, just live the moment. ”

"I didn't think about it, and I won't think about it in the future, last night, it was the last time."

I tested the temperature with my tongue, and I tasted a little sweetness on the tip of my tongue, very light and light, almost imperceptible, but this sweetness seemed to come from herbs, and it blended seamlessly with the decoction. If I hadn't tried to test the temperature, I wouldn't have felt it. "Xiying, did you add sugar to your medication?"

She was surprised and said, "No, the imperial doctor said that you can't add anything to the medicine, it will affect the efficacy of the medicine, I have candied fruit on my body, but I'm afraid that the medicine is too bitter for you to drink." ”

I silently put the medicine down, this is definitely not the first time, it is possible that something has been added to what I have drunk for so many days.

"Something wrong with the medicine?" Xia Xiying took the medicine and tasted it a little, and after a while, she said, "Sure enough, there is a little other taste, but I can't tell what's weird." I'm going to call the Imperial Doctor. ”

"Wait." I stopped her and poured all the potions into the pot, and the gray-brown dirt instantly absorbed all the potions. "Maybe the imperial doctor has a problem. I need you to do something for me right now. found such a person in the Tai Hospital, who practiced medicine in the palace for decades but was not promoted and made a fortune, was suppressed by others everywhere, and could only see a doctor for the palace maid, and he had never treated a high-ranking official or nobleman. ”

"What is this?"

"I need someone like this to help me, and I can't sit still anymore."

Xia Xiying smiled and sighed with relief: "You have finally come out of the past soberly. ”

It's not just the past. I want the whole future to be mine.

Early in the morning, the sun is just right.

The maid held the rose juice in her hand and dripped a drop of it in the water, and the rose-red and light purple color blended in the water to create a magnificent flower.

Washing hands and faces, a set of complicated procedures, all the sleepiness has been awakened.

Choosing a set of dark bilo skirts, covered with a plain gauze coat, a rabbit velvet shoulder vest on top, and a soft belt around my waist, I know more and more what kind of clothes to wear and what colors to please others, I am more and more like, like all the women in the harem.

"Today, we will wait for him on the way to the emperor's court, and you will prepare everything." I inserted the hairpin back into my hair and put on a pair of jade earrings before I put it away.

"Mother." Xia Xiying whispered with some concern, "Are you sure that in this way, the emperor will let us out of the palace?" I heard that this morning, the ministers all knelt outside the Longcheng Palace, and asked the emperor to abolish the position of concubine......"

"I'm not sure, but this battle is still going to be fought, and those old guys have nothing to do because they've been idle lately." Waiting for the war together, where did they take care of the trivial affairs of the harem. "Let's go, let's welcome the emperor."

"Yes."
