275 Washing the Three Waves (2)
It didn't matter if Xia Yan couldn't remember what it smelled like, because something happened on Wang Liulian's side that night. At that time, Lin Su was taking a bath in the ear room, because she was pregnant, she couldn't soak for too long, and Chunyan pinched her every time to get up.
Lin Su felt that he had only closed his eyes for a long time, when he heard hurried footsteps outside, and then someone opened the curtain and came in with a cool air.
She was stimulated by the cold air, and when she opened her eyes, she saw Xia Yan hurriedly coming in, followed by Chunyan.
"What's wrong?" Lin Su immediately stood up, Chunyan grabbed a blanket from the side and wrapped it in Lin Su, helped her out of the bathtub, and then said in a low voice: "Something happened to Concubine Lianchen." ”
"Concubine Lianchen?" Lin Su was stunned for a moment, opened his arms and let Chunyan bend down to help him wipe his body, and turned his head to look at Xia Yan, "What the hell is going on, today is not the day when the second princess washes the third, it is still lively at noon, I am afraid that it has not been long since the various masters left, and something happened?" ”
Xia Yan stood on the side with her clothes in her hands, and said in a low voice: "The master changed his clothes first, it was the slave who was anxious before." Now that we don't have any dealings with other places, even if something big happens, it won't burn us here. ”
Hearing this, Lin Su slowly raised his eyebrows, cooperated with Chunyan's movements, put on comfortable civilian clothes, put on soft cotton shoes, and then went out of the ear room and sat in front of the dresser. Chunque was about to step forward to wipe Lin Su's hair, but Xia Yan immediately greeted her, took the woolen handkerchief and stepped forward in person, and wiped Lin Su carefully.
Seeing this, Lin Su waved his hand to let Chunque out, and then said, "Something happened, let's talk about it." ”
Xia Yan half-knelt behind Lin Su, and while carefully sucking the water from her hair with a towel, she whispered, "Concubine Lianchen's side, a palace maid died. ”
"What?!" Lin Su turned back suddenly, Xia Yan coldly pulled her hair without relaxing, and directly pulled off a lot of hair. However, Lin Su couldn't care about it so much, grabbed Xia Yan's hand and said, "A palace maid died, what is her identity, and how did she die?" How could it be that there was a fuss? ”
In this harem, it is common for one or two palace maids to die, and sometimes they even die without seeing the corpse. Now that the matter has made trouble, Xia Yan has spread to her in a panic, but I am afraid that ......
Thinking of this, Lin Su's eyes darkened slightly, and she held Xia Yan's hand even harder, "What happened, you tell me in detail." ”
"Back to the master, the palace maid died after stealing the barley and rose porridge for Concubine Lianchen, and it is said that the death was miserable, bleeding from the seven orifices, her lips were black, and her fingertips were blue...... I'm afraid that he was poisoned. Xia Yan slowly pulled out her hand, helped Lin Su to sit down, picked out the hair that had been torn off in the towel and threw it in the basin on the side, and said in a low voice while wiping Lin Su's hair again: "It is said that Concubine Lianchen was not scared lightly, and the nurse on the side almost lost the second princess in her arms...... Now I have sent someone to ask the imperial doctor to check what is going on. ”
"I see." Lin Su lowered his head, let Xia Yan wipe his hair, and his fingers took out the hairpin from the dresser box and played with it casually, Xia Yan peeked at it, and when she saw that Lin Su took out the hairpin again, she immediately lowered her head and stopped talking.
Lin Sun's take, naturally, was the birthday gift given to her by Zhou Shuxian two or three years ago, the agarwood hairpin that represented the Lan family. When Zhou Shuxian gave her this hairpin, the evil intentions contained in Lin Su were clear, so she was cautious at the beginning, for fear that one wrong step would be doomed.
And then, after her concubine position is stable, every time she has a big decision, she will take out this hairpin and play with it carefully. Chunyan and Xia Yan both knew her habit, so they didn't speak when they saw this.
Lin Su played with the inconspicuous-looking hairpin, stroking the fine lines on it, and he didn't know where his thoughts had drifted to.
After a long time, she gently put the hairpin back into the box and told Chunyan to put it away.
"Master?" Chunyan put away the hairpin neatly, and then asked Lin Su in a low voice, "Is the master ready to rest, or is it ......?"
"I'll go see the two little ones first, I'm a little hungry now, so let Qiu Yan prepare some good snacks and send them over." Lin Su stood up with Chunyan's hand, and called Xia Yan to change hands before letting Chunyan leave.
Xia Yan held Lin Su with one hand, and then said in a low voice: "Master, this is ...... I'm afraid it's ......"
"I know what I know." Lin Su opened his mouth and interrupted her words, "There are some things that should not be said, so don't say them." ”
"Master, there are only slaves and maids and masters here, and the slaves and maids talk to their masters in private, how can they get into the ears of others?" Xia Yan smiled and leaned a little further, "Master, I'm just afraid that this matter is related to Rong Guiren nine times out of ten." ”
"Alright, don't say any more." Lin Su squeezed Xia Yan's hand, "I know that you have no intention and are loyal to me, I'm afraid I won't think of it for a while." However, there are some things that you and I can understand in our hearts, so why bother to say them clearly. ”
Xia Yan laughed in a low voice, "To the master, what else can't the slave and maid say." ”
Lin Su pinched her again, then went out of the inner room, and turned directly into the room of the two little guys, seeing the two little ones lying on the bed asleep, he sat on the edge of the bed with a smile, helped them press the corner of the quilt, and asked the two nurses in a low voice what they ate at night, and then nodded.
"That's good, no matter what happens in this Fuliu Palace, don't treat the two little masters badly, no matter what, they are the emperor's heirs, understand?"
When the two nurses heard this, they immediately knelt down, not daring to raise their voices for fear of startling the two sleeping little masters, but they also swore that they would take care of the masters.
Lin Su knocked the two nurses, and this time got up and left.
When she arrived outside, she happened to see Chunyan come in, squatted down and saluted, and then said, "Master, Concubine Lan is here." ”
"Lan Concubine?" Lin Su's eyes rolled slightly, and he understood what Lan Concubine meant, nodded and motioned for Chunyan to invite someone, so he sat on the main seat, and instructed Chunque to prepare tea and snacks, and in a blink of an eye, Lan Concubine took Zixin into the outer room, first saluted Lin Su, and then sat aside.
"Niangniang, the matter on Concubine Lianchen's side has always been reported by Niangniang's side." Lan Xin went straight to the point, and did not go around the bend and directly said his intentions, "Today, in the harem, except for the Empress Dowager Zhao, Niangniang and Jiang Guiren, all the masters and concubines have gone. It's just that everyone has been gone for just over an hour, and something happened in the palace where she is, so I'm afraid that those of us who have been there will be implicated. ”
She said and looked up at Lin Su, "Niangniang knows the situation of the concubine, so now the worry in the concubine's heart is only afraid that Niangniang should also be able to guess a ......."
