Now the families of those ministers in the court and the central government still despise more than flatter Miss Yumo in the prime minister's mansion, and when they meet at the palace banquet on weekdays, although they are all polite, they are just in front of the prime minister and dare not show it.

Although Mrs. Xue knew in her heart that she had a pure temperament, but she was a little pampered by the prime minister when she was a child, and now she is quite restrained, and her temperament is very different, just in case, she still explained a lot to her in a serious manner, and only hoped that she could get the favor of Concubine Mei on this trip, so that she and King Qin could go further.

"Alright, mother. Mo'er remembers it, don't worry, Mo'er won't embarrass her mother and father if she goes! Jiang Yumo leaned against Mrs. Xue's waist, thinking that it would not be long before she could see the person who thought about her day and night, and a faint flush had already appeared on her cheeks.

Madame Xue nodded with satisfaction, and was about to explain a few more words, but saw that the maid had already come in with a basin of water, so she hurriedly combed a light and playful Feixian bun for her, and inserted the pink hosta on the dresser obliquely between the buns, matching her pink face, which looked particularly charming and lovely.

Chenshi, Ruyi Temple.

The air was filled with a strong medicinal fragrance, and the maids methodically picked out the herbs sent by the Taiyi Garden, originally these jobs should not be done by the maids in the palace, but the emperor cherished Concubine Mei, and did not worry about the eunuchs in the Taiyi Garden.

The main hall, the inner chamber.

An Desheng bowed his head and knelt in front of Concubine Mei's couch, holding a bowl of steaming decoction in his hand, and heard Xuanyuan Che on the side of the couch say coldly, "Serve medicine!" After that, he hurriedly raised the medicine cup in his hand higher.

"Your Highness, be careful of the burn!" Anderson reminded his master softly.

I saw Xuanyuan Che holding the medicine cup, bowing his head and blowing lightly, and taking a sip, after noticing that it was no different, Fang looked back and motioned to the maids serving in front of him to slowly help Concubine Mei up on the couch.

I saw Concubine Mei's face pale, her eyes cloudy, and she coughed lightly from time to time.

When Xuanyuan Che gently scooped a spoonful of medicine and was about to send it to Concubine Mei's lips, he was stopped by a pair of plain white thin hands, he couldn't help frowning lightly, his phoenix eyes were sharp, and he looked coldly at the owner of those hands.

"Your Highness hasn't slept all night to guard the mother, why don't you go and rest for a while! Leave the medicine to Dieyi! It was Luo Dieyi, the daughter of the hussar general Luo Cheng, who learned that Concubine Mei was seriously ill when she returned from leaving the mountain, so she often came to visit the Ruyi Palace. Today, when Luo Cheng was in court, he pestered her father to bring her into the palace.

Luo Dieyi's voice fell, Concubine Mei had already ignored her weakness, raised her eyes to look at Xuanyuan Che, and said angrily: "Che'er! Go and rest! Mother's illness may not be cured overnight, is it a long-term solution for you to spend like this every day? If you don't want your mother to worry, be obedient! ”

Although Xuanyuan Che is indifferent by nature, he is very filial and obedient to his mother Concubine Mei. Now that Concubine Mei spoke, he naturally stopped pushing back, handed the medicine bowl in his hand to Luo Dieyi, and when he slowly got up and was about to leave, his eyes froze as if he remembered something, and he turned around and explained: "Dieyi, you should go back to the house earlier!" Tomorrow, I will set off with General Luo to the northern frontier, so don't stay in the palace for a long time today! ”

Hearing this, Dieyi shook the hand holding the spoon slightly, and had already fed the last sip of medicine to Concubine Mei to drink, and then raised the Jinpa to wipe the medicinal juice from her lips, and motioned to the maid on the side to add an extra layer of cotton pillow to her back, and saw that she was comfortable, so she turned around and looked at King Qin with a smile.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for the reminder! It's just that it's a long way to go to northern Xinjiang, and I don't know when I can return to Yunyang. She lowered her head slightly, her eyes were already red, and although she couldn't give up Concubine Mei on her lips, she was really reluctant to let go of King Qin in front of her in her heart. It's a pity that they didn't have a chance after all, and my father has not yet found a suitable opportunity to propose marriage to the emperor, and has been stationed in northern Xinjiang, she is my father's only daughter, so she naturally has to go with her.

Concubine Mei, who was pretending to sleep on the couch, heard what Luo Dieyi said, and there was a trace of reluctance in her heart, Dieyi had a straightforward temperament, and she knew Che'er's affection at a glance, and she was also very concerned about her illness, and often came to the palace to accompany her to relieve her boredom and tell some jokes to make her happy. It's just that her Che'er temperament is indifferent, not to mention how close Dieyi is, he has always treated her coldly.

He has no intention of her, and he is not good at matchmaking, so he can only sigh slightly in his heart, their fate is too shallow.

At this moment, seeing the indifference in Xuanyuan Che's eyes, Concubine Mei had to echo casually: "Dieyi, listen to King Qin, go back!" The road to the north is far away, and the road is safe! ”

Luo Dieyi was originally a straightforward character, and seeing that their mother and son had let them go home earlier, they had to nod helplessly, and bowed sideways towards the two of them, saying, "In this way, Dieyi will retire!" After speaking, Anderson was led to the outside of the hall.

As soon as Luo Dieyi left, Concubine Mei felt a little lost in her heart, still closed her eyes and pretended to sleep, and stopped talking.

Xuanyuan Che saw that the mother concubine rested, and also raised his feet to walk outside the hall, the road was heavy, thinking back to this deep palace, their mother and son depended on each other for more than ten years, I don't know how many dark arrows and conspiracies to dodge, seeing that he was growing in his wings, and he would be able to do something in the court in a few days, but the mother concubine suddenly fell seriously ill.

Xuanyuan Che always felt that the illness of the mother concubine was very strange, although the imperial doctor and the father and the emperor both said that the mother concubine was worried about his safety, so she was angry and couldn't afford to get sick. But after he returned safely, the mother concubine was still cured for a long time, and the imperial doctors tried all kinds of methods, but there was still no improvement.

He had secretly sent someone to investigate all the suspicious people around his mother, and there was nothing wrong with it, her daily diet was no different, and the decoction she took was tasted by himself every day, and he had not found the reason for what was wrong.

Seeing that Concubine Mei's complexion is getting worse and worse, most of these days are lethargic, and when he is awake for only an hour or two, his mood is getting worse and worse.

Because Concubine Mei was seriously ill, the emperor also didn't think about tea and dinner every day, and most of the major affairs of the court were handed over to the prince to take care of, Jiang Chengze assisted from the side, and he hurried to visit Concubine Mei in the Ruyi Palace every day.

Today is still the hour of the hour, and I have heard the voice of the herald eunuch from outside the palace: "The emperor is coming to the Ruyi Palace!" ”

"Dieyi see the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor!"

"Slaves see the emperor!"

Luo Dieyi and An Desheng walked to the gate of the palace and collided with the emperor who came to visit Concubine Mei.

"Dieyi, get up! Your father is waiting for you at the Green Dragon Gate, so go quickly! The emperor personally stepped forward to help her up, his eyes full of love.

"Yes! Dieyi retires! ”
