Chapter 111: Secretly Tie the Beams
Xuanguo Imperial Palace, Rongxi Palace.
After Concubine Qi left, several palace maids walked into the atrium and carefully cleaned the mess on the ground, Li Quanfu still knelt on the ground and didn't dare to move in fright, wishing that he could be invisible in this atrium now.
The reason why he is so frightened is because he knows Concubine Xi's temperament too well, originally Concubine Xi was angry because the emperor did not come, but now he is so stimulated by Concubine Qi, if he doesn't find an unlucky guy to spread this breath, he won't want to have a good life today.
"Alas!" A palace maid who was squatting on the ground to clean up the broken bowl was accidentally cut by a fragment, and a stream of blood slowly condensed into a drop of blood along her fingertips and slid down the velvet blanket on the ground.
Seeing this, Concubine Xi, who was sitting on the soft couch, got up and walked down the wooden steps with her waist shaking, stood in front of the palace maid, and put her foot on the palace maid's shoulder mercilessly, "Useless thing!" Do you know that this velvet blanket was given to the palace by the emperor? ”
The palace maid who fell to the ground got up and knelt up in a panic, and quickly kowtowed and begged for mercy regardless of the pain in her shoulder, "The slave maid is just a momentary accident, and please atone for the sins of Concubine Xi!" ”
"Huh...... Accidental? Concubine Xi sneered and looked at the palace maid kneeling on the ground, bent down sharply and grabbed the palace maid's collar with one hand, raised it high with the other hand, and fell towards the palace maid's cheek.
'Smack! With a bang, the palace maid was slapped to the ground by a strong slap, and a five-finger palm print was suddenly revealed on her delicate cheeks.
The other palace maids who cleaned up the hall together saw Jun Zhan standing on the side tremblingly, lowering their heads and shaking their breath, not to say that they stepped forward to dissuade them, but they didn't even dare to come out.
Shaking her palms that were also hot and painful, Concubine Xi took a few steps forward again, stretched out the body of the palace maid, and stepped on her stomach condescendingly and sneered, "Bengong slapped you, and then told you that Bengong didn't mean it, wouldn't you hold a grudge against Bengong?" As she spoke, the force under her feet increased, and she kept grinding on the palace maid's little belly.
The palace maid's painful cold sweat kept sliding down her cheeks, and she cried like a mosquito and stood up, "Slave, how dare the slave and maid hold a grudge against Concubine Xi, please, please spare the slave and maid......"
Li Quanfu, who was kneeling on the other side, raised his eyes and didn't see the meaning of wanting to spare the palace maid from Concubine Xi's relieved eyes, so he couldn't help but quickly get up and beckoned the eunuch outside, "Come on a few people, pull out this palace maid who has committed the following crimes and send it to the laundry garden!" "Since there is an unlucky egg who has become Concubine Xi's punching bag, why doesn't he take advantage of this time to ask for a bargain in front of Concubine Xi?
Concubine Xi, who felt a lot more comfortable, saw several eunuchs guarding the door running in, unhurriedly withdrew her three-inch golden lotus, and let the few eunuchs drag down the palace maid who couldn't even cry, and turned her head to Li Quanfu beside her, "When will even you, a minion, be able to give orders for the palace?" ”
Li Quanfu was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Concubine Xi's temperament to be so great today, in order to prevent him from getting burned, he hurriedly hung his waist and accompanied the smiling face, "The slave can't even write the words "give orders, how can he dare to declare an army in front of Concubine Xi?" The slave just wants to help the mother solve her worries. ”
"Whew!" Concubine Xi smiled disdainfully, retracted her gaze diagonally, leaned back on the soft couch again, stretched out her fingers and gently rubbed her temples, "I know that I have a flammy tongue all day long, how can you share the worries of this palace by a slave who has not taken it?" ”
Li Quanfu sighed a little in listening to Concubine Xi's words, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, raised his eyes to look at Concubine Xi's tired look, suddenly took a few steps forward, and whispered into Concubine Xi's ear, "Niangniang's seniority is here, naturally it is not a slave who can climb high and share worries, but if Niangniang feels that this palace is stuffy, she can let Princess Sinan come in and sit, right?" He said this because after Princess Sinan left last time, Concubine Xi's expression was indeed a little happy, and after that, he helped Concubine Xi go to Princess Sinan to get something, so he thought that Concubine Xi should be in love with this Princess Sinan, so he gave it a go.
Concubine Xi coldly heard the words of Princess Sinan, the movements in her hands suddenly froze, and after her clear eyes turned slowly a few times, she suddenly laughed and took off a gold-rimmed silk hairpin on her head and threw it into Li Quanfu's hand, "I didn't expect that you, a slave, would indeed relieve people's worries, take it down, and let the palace be quiet." ”
Li Quanfu looked at the Zhu Hai in his hand, stared at the beads of his eyes in a daze for a long time, and then was flattered and thanked, "Thank you Niangniang for the reward." As he spoke, he kept moving under his feet, and rubbed backwards out of the atrium.
It wasn't until he got out of the courtyard of Rongxi Palace that Li Quanfu took out the Zhu Hai and looked at it carefully, and saw that the ruby on the Zhu Hai was shining in the sun, so he couldn't help but smile and put the Zhu Hai into his arms.
He didn't expect that he was just a guess, and he would get such a big benefit, it seems that he can go to the eunuch's courtyard tonight to gamble for a good night.
In the Rongxi Palace, after Concubine Xi who was sitting on the soft couch left Li Quanfu, the smile on her face fell, she got up and walked into the back room to open the small box in the closet, and looked down at the empty paper bag on the top of the stack of medicine bags, and inevitably sneered proudly.
If it weren't for Li Quanfu's reminder, she would have forgotten that Princess Sinan had sent the medicine bag back, and reached out to take out the empty medicine bag, and the look in Concubine Xi's eyes slowly condensed into a layer of jealousy and hatred.
Since Princess Sinan loosened the empty medicine bag, it means that this matter has been done, so since it has been done, what are you afraid of?
It's just a foolish queen who has lost her chastity, even if she really enters the palace, can she live a good life in this harem for a few days? At that time, as long as she publicized this matter at the canonization ceremony, presumably the new queen's kung fu would become a new dead corpse in the blink of an eye.
After thinking about it like this, Concubine Xi changed her jealous and hateful attitude just now, and after leisurely locking the box and putting it in the closet, she lazily sighed and sat in front of the dressing mirror, "Mei Ju, come to the palace to remove your makeup, the palace is tired, and you want to take a nap." ”
Sinan Palace, West Chamber.
In the quiet room, Nian Yingxi, who had just woken up on the soft couch, opened her eyes, and before she could enter the back room, she saw Qianqian walking out of the back room.
Looking at Qianqian, who was slightly tired, Nian Yingxi raised her eyes and looked at the upper room, and asked in a low voice, "Is he awake?" ”
Qianqian endured her backache and shook her head.
"Alright, you go get me a basin to sleep, and go back and rest for a while." Nian Yingxi said, stretched her waist and was about to walk towards the back room.
"Miss." Qianqian stopped Nian Yingxi, and finally asked the question in her heart, "Who is that man?" ”
She only saw this man this morning, but when she came in, she saw Nian Yingxi treating his wounds, so she didn't ask much, and finally waited for Nian Yingxi to finish her work, and she saw Nian Yingxi's tired and sleepy appearance, so she finally swallowed back the question that reached her throat, and asked Nian Yingxi to rest, and she was here to help watch.
But she sat here for nearly a day, and the more she looked at the unconscious man on the bed, the more scared she became, this is not Nianfu, not only will there be maids walking back and forth from time to time, but I don't know when Prince Sinan or Princess Sinan will come over, if you really see such a man lying in Nian Yingxi's room, you can't explain it when you want to.
Nian Yingxi sighed, picked up the basin of water on the shelf next to her and stuffed it into Qianqian's arms, "Now is not the time to explain this, you go and fetch a basin of water for me first, and I will tell you slowly later." ”
Of course she understands Qianqian's worries, but to put it bluntly, why is she not worried herself, even if she sleeps, she must stay alert? But she just couldn't watch the man named Mo Xiu slowly turn cold in front of her, this feeling was like a feeling of common hatred, so she couldn't help but sit idly by.
And now she is not around her to help her with someone like Mo Xiu, she wants to save him, but also hopes that this man can help her in the future.
Qianqian was about to say something, but saw that Nian Yingxi had already walked towards the back room, lowered her eyes and looked at the basin in her hand, turned around and walked out of the door.
She has been by Nian Yingxi's side for a while, and knows that as long as it is something set by Nian Yingxi, others will never be allowed to change it, and Nian Yingxi has her own sense of proportion, so as long as Nian Yingxi speaks, she will follow Nian Yingxi's meaning no matter how worried she is, after all, Nian Yingxi's spirit of the backbone is undeniable to her.
Nian Yingxi walked to the back room, sat down next to the bed, reached out and touched Mo Xiu's forehead, when the warm touch was transmitted along his forehead to her palm, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, it seems that this person still has hope of waking up.
In fact, she was not completely sure when she saved him, after all, the ancient poison was much more poisonous than the modern one, so she gambled once when she saved him, and first gave him a stomach wash with warm water according to the method of digestion to be poisoned, and then sealed his strange meridians and eight veins with embroidery needles, and finally after a simple treatment of the skin trauma, he quietly waited for his own fever to subside.
She had already calculated before she went to bed, if it was a poison that would only be poisoned after digestion, then after she dealt with it like this, Mo Xiu would presumably have a fever in a day.
If Mo Xiu still has no fever or no breath after she wakes up, it means that he has a neurological poison, and she has no way, after all, she can't do anything about the neurological poison, just like the poison that will anesthetize the nerves if she eats it like Hedinghong or arsenic, not to mention that in this backward era, presumably in the 21st century, no one can bring the dead back to life.
But fortunately, God let her efforts not be in vain, and Mo Xiu's life should not be extinguished.
