Chapter 50: Self-defeating
Hearing this, Qi Hou patted his forehead and said loudly: "Ah, the notes for class? Gongzixian, you can take my notes and read them casually! The handwriting may not be as beautiful as the second princess, but what Li Fuzi said in class, Qi Hou dared to say that it was word for word. ”
And Xuan is waiting for this sentence. Qi Hou is an open-minded and helpful person, he has no grievances with Mi Xian, and borrowing a note is a small thing for him.
Mi Xian borrowed notes from He Xuan, not really unable to keep up with Li Fuzi's class, but just wanted to find an opportunity to have more private contact with He Xuan.
When he was in the distance just now, he vaguely heard something "Sister Hexuan" and "Brother Qi Hou", he felt that these words were very numb, and he couldn't hold back and walked over, he came to spoil the scenery.
His eyes were fixed on Qi Hou, and for about a few seconds, his little brain frantically switched thoughts.
Was Qi Hou unintentional or intentional?
No matter what it was, at this moment, Mi Xian could only put on a grateful look, bowed, and said, "Mi Xian thanked Gongzi Hou!" ”
Qi Hou smiled sincerely at Mi Xian, and instructed Da Ping: "After class in the afternoon, I ordered my subordinates to send all the notes from the previous days to Gongzixian." ”
"No." Da Ping, who was standing on the side, replied with his head bowed.
He Xuan looked at Mi Xian's half-yin and half-yang face, and only felt very happy, snickering in his heart.
The three of them talked in the garden for a while before leaving.
None of them noticed that the pillars behind the pavilion showed a touch of pink and a touch of pale blue.
Since that day, about two or three days have passed, and Mi Xian has never looked for peace in private.
Qing'er brought a cup of tea and said to He Xuan with a smile: "Gongzixian has finally stopped pestering you to take notes these days!" I heard Daping say that the notes sent by Gongzihou were sent back by Gongzixian the next day, saying that they had already read it! ”
"Hehe, finished reading it so soon? I haven't seen anything! I guess he will have to stop for a few days before he comes up with a new way! A sarcastic smile appeared at the corner of Hexuan's mouth, and he said lightly.
Since that day when Mi Xian first entered the Great Zhou Palace, Qing'er felt that He Xuan's attitude towards that prince was a little strange, but she never dared to ask what the reason was. As a slave and maid, where can you wantonly spy on the mind of your master?
"Princess, princess, something is wrong!" Ruolan hurriedly ran into Hexuan's room, and before she could enter the door, a voice came in.
Ruolan Ke has always been a steady palace maid, and He Xuan motioned for her to take a breath and said, "What happened in such a panic?" ”
"Just now, there was a palace maid next to the crown princess, who gave a message to the princess, saying that the princess has fallen ill, and I am afraid that it will be soon... Ruolan replied hurriedly.
"What do you say? I'm afraid what will happen? He Xuan put down the tea bowl in his hand, and the tea was scattered all over the table.
"I'm afraid ... I'm afraid the deadline is not far off. Ruolan squeezed the handkerchief in her hand and said.
"Nonsense!" He Xuan slapped the table with a "snap" and said, "A few days ago, when I was listening to Xinhu Xiaoshu with her, she was fine, why did she fall ill so quickly?" ”
"The slave and the maid don't know. The palace maid said that you should hurry up and have a look! Ruolan was frightened by He Xuan's appearance and sobbed.
"Looks like something is wrong! Otherwise, the dowry girl around Jiang Wanrong would not have secretly come to inform me. He Xuan lowered his eyes and thought for a moment.
What has happened in just a few days? She was puzzled. However, she couldn't sit idly by and watch Jiang Wanrong die.
"Let's go!" He Xuan immediately got up and hurriedly walked towards the gate of Zhaohua Palace, and after just a few steps, he immediately stopped. Qing'er followed very closely and almost crashed into Hexuan's body.
He Xuan turned his head and asked Xiang Ruolan: "Slow, the palace maid you are talking about, but she is thin and small, and her appearance is acceptable, but she looks quite clever?" ”
"Well, it seems so... Ruolan could feel the compelling anger emanating from He Xuan's body, and lowered her head and whispered.
"That's it... He Xuan lowered his head and thought for a while, and said, "Ruolan, you ordered someone to invite the imperial physician to the East Palace, as well as the Empress Dowager Jiang and the emperor." By the way, send a reliable person to the Jiang Taishi Mansion to inform him, and say that Jiang Wanrong is dying, so hurry into the palace to take a look. ”
"No." Ruolan bowed, hurriedly ordered a few palace maids, and then closely followed the footsteps of He Xuan.
"Second princess." The palace people guarding the gate of the East Palace saluted and saluted.
"I'm looking for the crown princess." He Xuan said unceremoniously, his eyes didn't even look at those palace people.
"The second princess will wait here for a while, and then let the slave go and say goodbye." A person who looked like a chief eunuch stood in front of He Xuan, and said respectfully, seeing that He Xuan stopped, he slipped away and went to the back.
He Xuan stood at the door for a while, and before he saw the eunuch come out to pay tribute, he walked around anxiously in front of the gate of the East Palace.
After about half a cup of tea, the eunuch hurried over, lowered his head and said, "The crown princess is unwell today, and she is not a guest, the second princess, please go back!" ”
"Really? I heard about it, that's why I came to visit the crown princess. "He Xuan has been waiting impatiently, this eunuch has been gone for so long, and he wants to send her away with just such a perfunctory sentence, is she, a princess, being kneaded by others?
Seeing that the eunuch was standing there and seemed to be very hesitant, and the expression on his face was very strange, he pulled his legs and walked in.
The eunuch had no choice but to run to Hexuan and block her way.
"You dare to stop this princess? Don't want your head anymore? He Xuan was violent, and he didn't know where the strength came from, so he pushed away the eunuch in front of him and walked forward quickly.
The eunuch in charge looked like a dog, but he stumbled and fell on the stone road, grinding his face to pieces, and blood flowed straight down.
Qing'er and Ruolan looked at each other, their faces full of surprise.
They only knew that He Xuan was friendly with the crown princess, and when they heard that something happened to the crown princess, He Xuan was very angry. But they have never seen He Xuan so arrogant and domineering, the gate of the East Palace, they broke into it as soon as they said it, and they also knocked down the eunuch.
This momentum can be compared to the gentle princess on weekdays.
There were also several loyal servants of the East Palace who had the courage to step forward to stop them, and He Xuan pointed to the nose of one of them, and said viciously: "If you dare to touch a single hair of this princess, I want your whole family to be buried with you!" ”
As soon as these words came out, no one dared to stop and move forward.
The princess accidentally injured the eunuch and the palace maid, which is nothing. But if anyone hurts the princess of Da Zhou, let alone the whole family will be buried together, it is very possible to destroy the nine clans.
Seeing that these palace people were already frightened, He Xuan said to one of them, who looked youngest: "Save you, you take me to the princess's room." ”
"No... Promise! The little eunuch agreed in a trembling voice.
Under the leadership of the little eunuch, He Xuan quickly walked to Jiang Wanrong's room.
As soon as he walked to Jiang Wanrong's dormitory, He Xuan saw the woman in red, sitting at the head of Jiang Wanrong's bed, holding a medicine bowl in her hand.
He Xuan stepped forward and slapped his hand down in one fell swoop.
With a "snap", the medicine bowl was smashed to the ground, and the woman in red looked up at He Xuan, her expression was very intriguing.
"Princess, your hand ... Bleeding! Qing'er immediately pointed to the hand that He Xuan had just patted the tea bowl.
He Xuan didn't care, looked at Zhao Rui'er's eyes as sharp as knives, and asked, "What are you doing?" ”
Zhao Rui'er was stunned by He Xuan's terrifying expression, and after a while, she said word by word: "I'm feeding medicine." ”
He Xuan raised his eyebrows, stared straight at Zhao Rui'er's face, and said, "What kind of medicine to feed, poison or antidote?" ”
said this directly, Zhao Ruier's face was a little tense, and she pursed her lips, as if she was thinking of countermeasures.
"Hexuan, why are you here?" A masculine male voice reached the ears of the two.
He Xuan turned his head and took a closer look, it turned out to be her incomparably noble eldest brother, Prince Ji Rong.
"Brother Huang, I heard that the crown princess is sick, so I came to visit." He Xuan restrained the anger on her face slightly, and before she couldn't figure out the truth of the matter, before she couldn't compare with the prince, she was still unwilling to go toe-to-toe with the prince.
"Well, yes. This time, the crown princess's illness was fierce, and the crown princess waited by her side day and night, which was very hard. As he spoke, Prince Ji Rong looked at Zhao Rui'er with gentle eyes.
Then, he looked at He Xuan with a slightly cold look in his eyes, and said, "Imperial sister, the crown princess is unwell, and she doesn't want to see guests." Why did the imperial sister break in directly and injured a eunuch? ”
This is naked reproach and rebuke. He Xuan stared at the prince with his eyes, refusing to miss the slightest expression on his face.
She always felt that the prince's reaction was very strange, but she couldn't say what was strange.
"Brother Huang, I don't know what kind of illness the crown princess has? The imperial physician Su Ri treated Zhaohua Palace, his medical skills are very clever, and he can solve all kinds of incurable diseases, why don't you call him over and show the crown princess? He Xuan held back the anger and confusion in his heart, and squeezed out a smile on his face.
In fact, she had already asked the imperial physician to be invited, and at this moment, the imperial physician should have been stopped outside the palace gate. He is not a peacemaker, and he can only be stopped if he is stopped. At this moment, He Xuan's proposal is just to hope that Imperial Physician Wang can enter this room logically.
"I've already asked Dr. Cheng to see it. The crown princess suddenly fell unconscious since yesterday, and sometimes she was even babbling nonsense, her mouth was dry, and her heart was beating very fast. I'm afraid that the medicine stone is ineffective, and Doctor Cheng said that this symptom seems to be an evil spirit. The prince shook his head and sighed softly.
"Evil?" He Xuan's eyes were full of suspicion and repeated in a low voice, she thought for a moment and said, "It's better to ask Imperial Doctor Wang to take a look!" One more person, one more guarantee. ”
The prince looked at He Xuan's eyes as cold as ice, and said in a resolute tone: "I said no, I don't have to!" This is the East Palace! ”
