Chapter 234: There Are Ghosts
In fact, sometimes, the flowers become more and more charming, and the things in front of you will not be able to see clearly.
Cen Muning was a little curious, why didn't Zhuang Chenchen tell her about the Chu family directly. Is it afraid that she will open her mouth to intercede for the Chu family, or because he has decided to completely pull out the scourge of the Chu family, so there is no need to talk to her.
Either way, it's not optimistic.
"Don't worry, my children won't be so weak. Although Zizhou is still young, I believe he can survive it. Zhuang Chenchen gently hugged her in his arms. As soon as it dawns tomorrow morning, I will announce that Doctor Hu will enter the palace to diagnose Zizhou. β
"Okay." Cen Mu nodded slightly, and didn't say anything more.
She sat on the edge of the bed, his hand running through her hair and resting on her shoulder. The fresh smell on the wrist is not as strong as the incense powder used in the past, but it is not cool in it. It smells so good that people can't help but sniff and sniff.
"Your Majesty, it's not too early, you have to go to court tomorrow morning. Zizhou is fine now, and the concubines are fine, so the emperor should go back to the palace to rest first. After all, the government is important. Cen Mooning pretended to be good for him, and found this reason to ask him to leave.
"I want to spend a little more time with you." It was rare for Zhuang Chenchen to see her temperament softened, and she was a little reluctant to leave.
"If you damage the dragon's body because of this, the concubine is afraid that the crime will be extremely evil." Cen Muning frowned slightly, and her tone was full of doubts: "Actually, I don't hide it from the emperor, there is another thing that makes the concubines feel very strange." β
"You mean...... Azusa's disease. Zhuang Chenchen glanced at her, and she had to worry about it.
"Yes." Cen Muning nodded: "How cautious the concubine is, you know it, Your Majesty." The disease was contracted suddenly, and the concubines were always uneasy. β
"I'll let Yin Li check carefully. You are relieved. Zhuang Chenchen shook her hand.
Cen Muning nodded slightly: "Then please leave it to the emperor." β
She was as gentle as a kitten, leaning submissively on his body. Sometimes the closer two people are, the more wary they have to be of each other.
After a long time, Zhuang Chenchen reluctantly left.
Cen Muning asked Bingling to summon Helian over: "I have already poured two pairs of medicines for the nurse." When can I give milk to Zizhou? β
"Anytime." Helian said with some concerns: "The premise is that His Royal Highness, the eldest son of the emperor, can drink it." β
"What do you mean by that?" Cen Mu looked at him puzzled: "What do you mean to be able to drink?" β
"If the high fever does not go away and you fall into a coma, you will naturally not be able to drink milk." Helian walked over and reached out to stroke the child's forehead, his face was a little bad. "I'm afraid that I need acupuncture to straighten out the veins, and wipe the whole body with warm water to wet the silk to cool down."
"If it's difficult, come quickly." Cen Muning summoned the nurse to help with Qingli and Bingling, and this busy work came to noon on the second day.
Except for Zizhou, who was chilled because of the high heat. The rest of the people were wet with heat.
It's just that the doors and windows are inconvenient to open, and the smell of the inner room is a little unpleasant.
"Let's all go and change our clothes. Bingling, you go to the Tai Hospital, get some medicinal herbs, and take a change of clothes for the deputy hospital judge. During this time, he had to stay in the palace to take care of Zizhou. Cen Muning glanced at Zizhou, who had not yet woken up, and felt a little bored: "Go and go back quickly." β
"Yes, the slave knows." Bingling led the nurses away.
Cen Muning also followed Qingli to his room to bathe and change clothes.
Bingling went to get the clothes and came back, handed them to Helian with his own hands, and saw that there was no one else around, so he asked. "How sure is the judgment of the vice court that it can cure His Royal Highness the eldest son of the emperor?"
"Fifty percent." Helian glanced at him and said calmly.
"More than that." Bingling frowned slightly: "If it's a natural disaster, fifty percent is excellent." But if it's a man-made disaster, you don't have 100% certainty, so you just do it, aren't you afraid of affecting the queen? β
"As I said, I have absolutely no involvement in this matter." His expression was slightly stagnant, and Helian frowned: "Anything, I don't want to drag the queen mother." This is just like you. β
Bingling vaguely heard footsteps coming this way, so he changed his words: Then the adult hurry up and change clothes, I am taking care of it here. β
"Thank you." Helian grabbed his clothes and bowed away from her.
Not long after, Cen Muning came.
"The Queen." Bingling saluted her: "Your Highness's fever has subsided a little. β
"That'll be fine." Cen Muning stared slightly: "Call the nurse to prepare." When Zizhou woke up, I fed him some milk. β
When Bai Shuo was about to enter the inner room, he happened to be bumped into by Helian who had changed his clothes.
Helian immediately blackened his face and pulled him towards the chamber where he was housed. "Can you get some score? It is said that you should find an excuse to leave the imperial city and don't enter the palace again, why don't you listen. Do you know how ...... situation in the palace is right now?"
A punch slammed into his chest, and Bai Shuo used some strength.
Helian frowned in pain, clutched his chest and didn't speak for a long time.
"I know what I'm doing, and I hope you know what you're doing. If you were useful, take her out of the palace long ago. Since you're useless, don't get in my way. Bai Shuo's tone was majestic: "Otherwise, don't blame the teacher for being ruthless." β
"Master, I'm afraid that you will be self-defeating." Helian lowered his voice and said: "The Chu family is not good, and Cen Xiang and the queen mother have a knot. At this time, if you are doing something, I am afraid that not only will you not be able to help the queen, but also ruin her future. β
"What a bullshit future." Bai Shuo said: "If you were willing to listen to me and join forces with me, let alone a cheap maid, what is so difficult about washing the entire palace in blood." It's because you're cowering that you're ......"
"I'm not cowering." Helian interrupted Bai Shuo, his fists clenched: "Can't you see it?" The queen mother really cares about her husband's child, what is the reason for this, haven't you thought about it? Yes, it was indeed the emperor's biological mother who killed Mrs. Cen at the beginning, but don't forget that the emperor is now her husband. If you want to kill him, you have to ask her if she wants to! β
Bai Shuo was stunned here, and he didn't say anything for a long time.
"Master, I ask you to think more about her no matter what you do?" Helian said with some distress: "She has suffered too much, since Mrs. left." Now it may be insignificant in our eyes, but it is the stability she wants in her heart. β
Bai Shuo stood there stunned, silent for a long time.
Until Helian left the chamber, he was still thinking. What if Mu Ning really likes Zhuang Chen?
Kill him for revenge? Or is it for Mu Ning's sake, spare him?
He can spare him, but will he let Mu Ning go?
"Where did the emperor go last night?" Cen Muning asked inadvertently.
Bingling and Qingli glanced at each other, but neither of them said a word.
"How?" Cen Muning turned her face and saw that the expressions of the two people were a little strange, and she couldn't help but hook her lips. "Why can't you say it yet?"
"I heard that I went to Jinlai Palace." Qingli smiled slightly, and wanted to turn the page: "Queen Mother, the slave maid saw that His Royal Highness's face was not so red, and the fever must have subsided." β
"yes. It's not burning much now. Cen Muning seemed to be unintentional: "Concubine Liao's incense powder tastes very special." β
Bingling couldn't help but step forward and smile slightly: "Niangniang is thinking about those incense powders sent by the Internal Affairs Bureau, right?" With His Royal Highness the eldest son in our palace, you are afraid that he is not used to those smells, and he has not used them for a long time. When you go back and wait for Your Highness to get better, the slave will personally mix some fragrant powder for you that smells light and will never damage your body. β
"It's not all because Zizhou is here. Women are the ones who please themselves, and the emperor and I seem to be close, but there is an invisible river in the middle. The river is sometimes meandering, sometimes meandering, sometimes gentle, sometimes turbulent, and it is difficult to cross it. Cen Muning waved his hand: "That's it, don't talk about this." Go and see why the deputy judge and the miracle doctor didn't come. Their absence is always unsettling. β
"Slave and maid, go now." Bingling's deep uneasiness in her heart was not revealed. But this kind of uneasiness stirred her upset.
In addition to the emperor's favor, what else can the queen mother count on? How can we gain a foothold in this deep palace?
Under the scorching sun, Joor was thrown back into the front courtyard of his dormitory like a puddle of mud.
The palace door was heavily locked. The palace people around her were all dragged down and punished because they didn't watch her. In the huge courtyard, she was the only one crying weakly.
"Why can't I be asked to take care of my children...... Emperor...... That's my child. Even if you don't have any affection for me, you shouldn't deprive me of ...... The right to be a mother. She couldn't make a sound anymore, as if she was about to faint. That kind of despair hurt more than stabbing her directly in the heart, and she didn't have the strength to resist.
"Whoa-" A basin of cold water fell from the sky, and it was all sprinkled on her body without any waste.
The scorching heat met the sudden cold, and the whole person was excited, and Ruan Er suddenly raised his head, only to see a person with a covered face.
"Who are you......" Her voice was a little hoarse, and she looked at each other in surprise.
"Your child was deliberately harmed by the queen in order to avoid trouble. She's certainly not going to let you ruin it. As soon as the other party spoke, it was a woman's voice.
Ruan didn't care who she was, and her head was buzzing: "What did you say?" The queen mother deliberately harmed my child? This is impossible, she has no children of her own, and she is counting on my children to compete for favor and preserve her posteriority. β
"Don't be so naΓ―ve." The other party said coldly: "In this harem, you are not the only one who will give birth." If your child dies, she will give birth to a son-in-law. When the time comes, even if you cry to death, it will be impossible for the emperor to seek justice for your child. It's better to strike first. β
"First?" Rouer raised her head, the dazzling sunlight made her dizzy, even if the other party didn't cover her face, she couldn't see her clearly at all.
"The nurse specially arranged by the queen, before entering the palace, her child died of pox, and it was more than a month."
The woman threw down the words, and she was gone.
"The nurse's child died of pox, so she ...... She fed Zizhou......" Ruan Er gritted her teeth, stood up strongly, and wanted to rush out of the palace to see the emperor, but as soon as this thought started, it was suppressed.
"No, I won't believe anything I say now, the emperor. He would just think that I was mad in a hurry for Zizhou...... No way...... I've got to figure out a way to get the evidence. Trembling, she went to the inner chamber and scattered the pigeons.
