Chapter 130: In the Concubine Palace
Tired from the bumps and fatigue along the way, coupled with the tossing of Concubine Shu, Kou Shu and his party walked for a day and a half, and arrived at the summer resort in Tianzhou at noon the next day. Ripples and mandarin ducks cleaned up again, and finally finished packing things up.
Although Tianzhou is not far from Daxuan, with the advantage of a unique geographical location, it has a peculiar natural environment, as soon as the sun sets, it feels that the evening breeze is blowing softly, and there is no feeling of heat at all.
I haven't felt such comfort for a long time, Kou Shu is in a good mood, and she can't help but pull a few people and plan to go out for a walk.
Although he had been to the summer resort once before, he came not long after he became the queen, and he was cautious at that time, for fear that he would be ridiculed for stepping on the wrong step, and how dare he swagger in such a place. It's just that now that time has changed, Kou Shu has seen all the winds and waves.
Kou Shu's hand rested on Ripple's shoulder and walked slowly.
"Niangniang-" Ripple pouted: "It's really weird for you to say that the sky is really weird, the whole person who was originally hot in the capital is foggy, but it is extremely cool here." β
Kou Shu smiled slightly, and just wanted to answer, only to see a girl in front of her hurriedly running over.
The mandarin duck frowned beside Kou Shu: "Isn't that the goose next to Concubine Shu?" β
"Lady?" Kou Shu raised her eyebrows slightly, and there was a hint of puzzlement in her tone, although the summer resort is not big, but Concubine Shu's palace is also a lot of distance from here, besides, Concubine Shu's temperament has always been simple, why did her girl appear here?
A look was handed to the mandarin duck, and the mandarin duck immediately understood and followed the goose.
Ripple pouted, a little dissatisfied: "Niangniang, when can I be like Mandarin Duck and Yuan Yun, I can help Niangniang do something serious." β
Kou Shu's eyes were slightly downcast, the mandarin duck's temperament was too jumpy, and it was not easy to sink down, if she did things, I was afraid that there would be a lot of chaos. opened his mouth to comfort Ripple and said a few words to Ripple, but saw that Ripple was still stuffy, with a very reluctant look.
Sighing slightly, Kou Shu still wanted to speak, but the mandarin duck had already turned back, and took a step forward and said, "Niangniang-"
"How?" Kou Shu asked.
The mandarin duck nodded: "That goose went to the pharmacy to get bone-setting wine." β
"What do you do with bone-setting wine?" Ripple frowned: "Did Concubine Niangniang fall?" β
The mandarin duck frowned, shook his head, and continued: "Yan'er not only went to get the bone-setting wine, but also took away a lot of gauze and medicinal materials to stop bleeding. β
"Stop the bleeding?!" Ripple exclaimed, "What's going on?" β
Kou Shu also frowned, although the assistant manager Lan Ruoxuan was in charge of coming to the summer resort this time, but if something really happened, I am afraid that she would be the queen and she would be to blame.
After a little thought, Kou Shu slowly spoke: "Let's goβlet's go to Concubine Shu's residence to have a look." β
Approaching Concubine Shu's residence, I heard Yan'er's exclamation: "Niangniang can't help it!" β
A hint of discoloration flashed in Kou Shu's eyes, and she motioned for Mandarin Duck and Ripple to slow down and step forward, only to hear a thin whipping sound coming from inside.
Ripple was stunned for a moment, and said softly: "Could it be that this lady concubine has a habit of abusing maidservants?" β
The mandarin duck frowned, and just wanted to stop the ripples and not want to say any more, but the voice had already spread far away, and was heard by the little maid in front of the palace of the concubine, and couldn't help but tilt his head.
Kou Shu was helpless, so she had to walk out slowly with the two people behind her, and straightened her expression: "This palace remembers that this is the first time Concubine Shu has come to the summer resort, so I came to take a look." β
The little guy was stunned, and hurriedly saluted Kou Shu, and then said, "If you have seen the queen's mother, the slave will inform you immediately." Those two sentences were extremely loud, as if they were deliberately spoken to the people in the room.
Kou Shu nodded slightly, sneered in her heart, and didn't wait for the little guy to go in to report, she raised her feet and stepped straight into Concubine Shu's house.
I saw a woman in a lilac pleated skirt sitting on the chair of the main seat. Kou Shu looked at Concubine Shu carefully, a purple dress was already lined with darker skin, all of which made it not look like a noble girl from a wealthy family, an overly round goose egg face looked a little thick, and under the thin eyebrows were narrowed into a line of eyes, and the small nose was quite handsome, but it was also buried in such a bland facial features, and the whole person was thrown into the pile, which was absolutely impossible to find.
Kou Shu couldn't help but be stunned, Concubine Shu was the first concubine to enter the palace, two years earlier than herself, but for so many years, she had never looked at her well, so much so that when she saw Concubine Shu's face, she felt a little strange.
"I've seen the queen mother-" Seeing Kou Shu, Concubine Shu curtsied, and then said slowly.
"Concubine Shu," Kou Shu raised her head slightly, motioning for Concubine Shu to get up.
I saw Concubine Shu get up, but she subconsciously pulled her sleeve, as if she was deliberately covering up something and didn't want Kou Shu to see it.
With a slight turn of her eyes, Kou Shu smiled as if she hadn't found anything, and said, "In this big summer, why is Concubine Shu still wearing a long gown, why doesn't she feel hot?" β
Concubine Shu's face turned pale, and a trace of embarrassment flashed, and then she said: "It's not good for the concubine to be small, and she still feels very cold in the summer, so she has been wearing a long shirt." β
Kou Shu smiled, if she remembered correctly, when she first entered the palace a few years ago, she had never heard of Concubine Shu having this problem. Kou Shu didn't say anything, nodded and said: "In this way, Concubine Shu has to take care of herself, this summer resort is originally a summer resort, and it is even cooler at night." β
Concubine Shu nodded, as if to confirm her words, she pulled her sleeves hard, but her face showed a trace of extremely unnatural paleness and nervousness.
Kou Shu nodded, turned around and gestured to leave. turned around and pushed the door out, but the mandarin duck behind him didn't know what he was doing, took a step behind, and then strode forward to follow.
Looking at Kou Shu's back walking out, Concubine Shu breathed a long sigh of relief, and then glared at Yan'er fiercely, and shouted angrily: "You dead girl, if it weren't for you, how could you invite the queen!"
Yan'er was worried in her heart, and subconsciously knelt down with a puff and called for her mother to spare her life.
Concubine Shu sneered, raised her hand without hesitation, and was about to slap Yan'er.
"Bang-" The door was pushed open again. Listening to the door, Kou Shu's voice sounded slowly: "The palace suddenly found that something fell in Concubine Shu's house, and I don't know if Concubine Shu can do it-" raised his head, but saw Concubine Shu's hand hovering in mid-air, and Concubine Shu looked even more panicked, not knowing what to do at all.
