Chapter 321: Returning to Favor
Sun Guifei heard that Yun Jinglan had never entered the palace but was rewarded, and sent to inquire only to learn that she had cleverly prepared some so-called herbal tea and sent it to the palace, and it happened that Emperor Chengqi was irritable and irritable these days, she was opportunistic and the emperor's appetite, Sun Guifei felt a little uncomfortable in her heart, these things have always been done by her, but because she was grounded recently, she was in a mess.
Sun Guifei, who felt that she couldn't sit still any longer, finally thought of a trick, but the midsummer had just passed, but the night was still a little cold. She sat all night in thin Confucian clothes.
She refused to sleep, and these palace maids naturally didn't dare to rest, the night was already late, but Sun Guifei was still unmoved.
Xiao Ju was worried that she would get cold if she waited like this again, so she had the courage to step forward and comfort: "It's already late at night, Niangniang should rest early." ”
Sun Guifei glanced at her and didn't get up, Xiaoju was just a slave, all she could do was to comfort, Sun Guifei was unmoved, she was powerless, so she had to take out a cloak to put it on for her. Sun Guifei finally moved, but she reached out to stop her.
Xiao Ju is very incomprehensible, all of them are dressed neatly, and they can't help but get goosebumps from the cold, but because Sun Guifei is still sitting, she has to endure it, and she has always been used to brocade clothes and jade food, and Sun Guifei doesn't feel cold today? "Niangniang, the slave knows that Niangniang is waiting for Your Majesty, but the weather is cold, watch out for your body."
Sun Guifei glanced at her lightly: "What the palace wants is to get cold, if you can't stand it, let everyone retreat." Xiao Ju is also a smart person, she just mentioned such a sentence and probably guessed Sun Guifei's intentions, when even if she quit to call the palace maid and eunuch who kept vigil to rest, if she stayed up all night, who would serve the concubine if she was infected with the cold.
Those palace maids retreated as if they were about to be amnesty.
Xiao Ju didn't, she was very satisfied with the last time she sent porridge to the Queen Mother, and Sun Guifei also gave her a good face for a few days, Xiao Ju saw Mama Zhang, and was determined to serve Sun Guifei well, even if she was still a slave, she would be a first-class slave one day.
With this humble thought, Xiao Ju also endured the cold and accompanied Sun Guifei all night, and what lived up to expectations was that the master and servant both caught a cold on the second day.
Sun Guifei had a headache and brain fever, Xiao Ju was better, after a night of sleeplessness, Sun Guifei lay on the bed and fell asleep soundly, but she was still struggling to serve, and the little palace maids together were a little unbearable.
"Sister Xiaoju, you are sick like this, and there are so many palace maids in the palace, you better rest for a while." The young man who spoke, and he didn't enter the palace deeply, Xiao Ju chuckled in his heart, he had to endure hardships to become a master, even Sun Guifei knew that she could coax the emperor to come on the grounds of illness, these little girls were clamoring to rest because of such a little illness, no wonder they could only be inferior slaves and maids for the rest of their lives.
Xiao Ju covered his mouth and endured the cough caused by the itchy throat, and then waved his hand and pushed her away: "It's okay, I'm in good health, but my mother is sick, I'm afraid that others will not serve her well." ”
These little palace maids laughed at her, she was still so honest after being in the palace for so many years, Xiao Ju had an 'honest' smile on her face, and she didn't refute them anymore, so it's okay.
When the imperial doctor came, Sun Guifei had already woken up, but she had been cold all night, and she had only slept for so long and looked very bad. ”
Xiao Ju hurriedly wanted to stop it, this is just a deliberate cold, the medicine can't be drunk indiscriminately, "Niangniang, I'm afraid it's ...... to drink two medicines at a time."
"Who said I was going to drink two pills and you wouldn't be sick?"
Xiao Ju, who reacted, hurriedly knelt on the ground: "Thank you, slave." ”
Sun Guifei didn't say anything, and sent a little palace maid to invite the emperor over, and then she drank the medicine and told Xiao Ju to go to rest too, and at night, Emperor Chengqi was late, originally thought that she was pretending to be sick and wanted to please herself again, but she didn't want to smell a strong smell of medicine as soon as she stepped into the inner hall.
Emperor Chengqi frowned and hurriedly approached, Sun Guifei heard the footsteps and struggled to get up from the bed, but he stretched out his hand to block it, seeing that she was pale and tired, she was also anxious, how could she suddenly be so sick, Emperor Chengqi angrily yelled at the palace maid beside him: "What do you do to eat!" How to take care of the concubine! ”
Xiao Ju hurriedly knelt on the ground, and grabbed words before others spoke: "Your Majesty is angry, Niangniang is not allowed to go out because she is grounded in the palace, but she misses Your Majesty too much, and I look forward to Your Majesty coming every night. These words were very sensational, and some palace maids who didn't know how to reason also hurriedly knelt down and echoed, it was better than saying that they didn't take good care of the concubine.
Emperor Chengqi's anger faded by half, and he couldn't help but think of what happened a long time ago before Sun Guifei entered the palace, when he was not the emperor of Tianyue, and she was not Tianyue's concubine, at that time they were still very young, a little prince, an official lady, met at a banquet held in the palace.
He used to play with her from time to time.
Until they each came of age and understood the difference between men and women.
The person in front of her used to be an innocent girl, she admired herself sincerely, but surviving in this harem still changed her after all, he began to be unable to endure these changes little by little, but gradually forgot her true heart to herself.
"Your Majesty, don't blame them, it's the concubines who are too willful, too dissatisfied, the concubines have done so many wrong things to disappoint the emperor, and now they are just grounded and thought, but the concubines don't want to forge ahead, and they try in vain to get the emperor's mercy, in order to accompany the concubines, even Xiaoju has suffered a cold, it's all the concubine's fault." By the end of the sentence, he was choked up and unable to speak.
Emperor Chengqi stretched out his hand to gently wipe away the tears on her face, and Sun Guifei also leaned into his arms, and finally sobbed quietly.
"It's me who is not good, it's that I have snubbed you recently."
"The emperor is the emperor of Tianyue, not only the emperor of the concubine, it is the blessing of the concubine to be favored by the emperor, in the past, the concubine was too greedy, and I hope that the emperor only belongs to the concubine to do those stupid things, these days, the concubine finally understands how stupid she is, pretending to be the emperor in her heart, thinking about the emperor but doing those stupid things to make the emperor unhappy."
Emperor Chengqi gently held her with one hand, but gently held her hands in the palm of his hand with the other, "That's not in vain for all these good intentions." You can come to me anytime tomorrow, you know? ”
