Chapter Ninety-Nine: Adding Oil to the Fire (3)
mentioned her cousin, but the queen had a faint look, and said: "Whether you can seal a concubine or not depends on the creation of each person, whether it is a concubine or a change of clothes, it is the grace of the heavenly family and the love of the emperor." ”
"This time, a total of twenty-four sisters have been added, and I just hope to be able to spread the branches and leaves for the royal family, and have more children. There are not many children in the palace, so they are less angry after all. Concubine Wen smiled.
"A few days ago, I passed by Xinyi Palace, and I saw those sisters, all of whom are smart and clear people, and they really look like they are old." Concubine Li Xian sighed with a bit of sincerity. The show girls were selected more than half a month ago, and now they are all in the Xinyi Palace to receive the teachings of the grandmothers on the palace rules and etiquette.
"In less than half a month, the new show girl will start to sleep, I don't know if the Ministry of Internal Affairs is ready for the green card?" Concubine Wen said.
"There are almost ten days of etiquette teaching, what's the hurry, it's just a small brand. It's not a short period of time. Ni Guifei lowered her eyes and smiled.
"In my opinion, it doesn't matter if you're ready or not, anyway, the first one will definitely be Sister Yufei." Concubine Li Xianfei quipped.
Shi Rou'er blushed suddenly.
"Why should my sister be shy? You come from a famous family, and it is natural for you to be favored. Concubine Li Xian comforted.
"I also want your sisters to teach you more." Shi Rou'er lowered her head and said softly, gentle and silent.
The queen looked embarrassed when she saw Shi Rou'er's expression, turned her head, looked at the kitten playing in the yard, and immediately said: "Sister Ni, this cat is really delicate and cute, and the palace originally wanted to raise one, but who knows that she has not been able to find a well-behaved and suitable one." ”
The concubines followed her eyes, and a little white cat was fluttering a ball of hydrangeas there, with a round body, which looked no different from a white hydrangea, and it was pleasing to the ground.
"Since the queen likes it, come in and take a look." Ni Guifei instructed the palace people on the side, and then turned her head to the concubines around her and smiled: "This is still a famous product paid tribute by the Jialuo Kingdom when the palace first entered the palace. ”
Immediately, a serving palace maid came out of the pavilion and brought in the white cat that was playing beside her.
The concubines naturally flattered again, and praised the cat's delicate and dexterous.
Su Mi looked at the cat, her round eyes turned dexterously, looking around, she couldn't help but like it in her heart.
At this time, the cat's nose moved, turned its head in the arms of the palace maid, and suddenly looked in the direction of Su Mi, before Su Mi could react, the cat suddenly pounced out of the palace maid's arms and pounced on Su Mi's head.
Su Mi was startled, the white cat had already deftly touched the table a little, silently passing over Su Mi's head.
Su Mi noticed that it was not good, and was about to stand up, but she didn't guard against her skirt being stepped on by the person next to her, and she suddenly lost her balance and fell to the ground.
Su Mi intuitively tilted her head, and a few hot things mixed with fragrant liquids rubbed her cheeks and poured onto her body.
It was a few pieces of charcoal that burned red, she couldn't help but scream, she was wearing silk materials, which were the easiest to catch fire, plus the sesame oil that fell together, she couldn't think of it.
Su Mi reacted quickly, stretched out her hand, and the wide sleeves brought the sound of the wind, and the coals were thrown out by her from a distance, but the sticky sesame oil was not blocked, and most of it flowed down her shoulders.
At this time, a round turquoise object fell from the placket, and the cat still refused to give up, pounced on Su Mi's body, and bit the round incense burner. The censer had been torn apart, revealing a few coals that were still burning red.
This kind of closed jasper incense burner in the palace is designed like a small stove in winter, with hot charcoal below and sesame oil on top, which can not only transpire the aroma, but also be used as an incense burner, and can also have the effect of a stove. If the matter is dry today, if the burnt coals touch the clothes, how can there be a reason not to burn them immediately, but fortunately, Su Mi saw the opportunity quickly and threw off those coals, so it was just a piece of clothes that were dirty.
Before Su Mi could breathe a sigh of relief, he stood up, and the mutation was born again.
Shi Rou'er stood up in shock, and as soon as she raised her arm, a small stove for cooking tea next to her fell, and the red charcoal in it was scattered all over.
Su Mi hurriedly dodged, but Shi Rou'er's legs were blocking behind her, making her unable to completely dodge, and a few pieces of charcoal fell on Su Mi's side shoulders at once, and a few sparks that were originally burning on her clothes immediately burned, and the sticky and harmless sesame oil immediately turned into a poisonous snake, like a hot current burning to her neck at the same time.
The concubines screamed in frenzy.
Su Mi's gaze quickly swept over the table, and he picked up the water used to clean his hands and poured it on his body, and the flame was extinguished at once. At this time, Su Mi only felt that the side of her cheeks and neck to her collarbone were painful, as if a layer of skin had been removed.
The concubine was already stunned by the upheaval she saw, and Ni Guifei's face turned green.
Su Mi barely got up, she didn't dare to touch her neck, she knew that there must be a layer of blisters and dirt on it. Resisting the pain, she loosened the placket around her neck to keep it out of her skin.
Shi Rou'er looked at Su Mi's face, the smug look in her eyes flashed, and she shouted loudly: "Hurry up and ask the emperor to come over, Lian Jieyu is not good." ”
Su Mi raised her head and glared at Shi Rou'er fiercely, not caring about being polite, and shouted to the palace attendant next to her: "Quickly pass on the imperial doctor!" ”
Only then did the surrounding palace people react, stood up in panic, and ran out.
The concubines looked at Su Mi's side face one by one dumbfounded, and then reacted and gathered around one after another, obviously saying comforting words, but the meaning of schadenfreude in it could be heard even by the deaf.
Su Mi secretly hated in her heart, her body was in unbearable pain, and she had no intention of dealing with such hypocrisy, so she turned her head and asked Ni Guifei: "Niangniang, is there a spare room here?" ”
As soon as he sat down on the couch in the side hall, the imperial doctor rushed over and saw the scars on Su Mi's body, and he was terrified.
"How's it going?" The queen asked with a worried face.
After taking a closer look, the imperial doctor said: "Fortunately, the fire was extinguished in time, Jieyu Niangniang These are skin injuries, but the burn is very serious, and the face is only rubbed by the coals, but it is not a big problem, as long as you use the ointment to relieve the pain, you can return to its original state in three or five days, leaving no traces." But the wound on the shoulder ......"
"How?" Shi Rou'er next to her hurriedly asked.
Before the imperial doctor could speak, the little eunuch at the door sang: "The emperor has arrived!" "It was Qi Long who rushed over when he heard the news.
