Hurried to Kunning Palace, the palace concubines had gathered, the queen mother also came in person, and ordered the concubines not to enter the palace to disturb, seeing the imperial doctor in and out, Lan Qi and Bu Guiren stood behind the crowd, only to see the front of Tong Guifei walking around impatiently, from time to time pulled a palace maid or little eunuch to question, most of them couldn't ask anything, and pushed away in disgust.

After waiting for another half an hour, the emperor finally came late, it was a discussion of important matters in front of him, I heard that the emperor was also angry, Gonggong Li should not go out of the palace today, and the rest of the people over there did not dare to report, only waiting for the ministers to disperse, before telling the emperor, if Xuan Ye was naturally more annoyed, he hurriedly came back.

The concubines saluted and greeted each other, Xuan Ye didn't have time to see anyone, he went straight to the door, Bu Guigui and Lan Qi supported each other and got up again, only to hear Tong Guifei sigh lazily: "I don't know when it will be, this palace is uncomfortable, you wait, if there is news, it will be sent to Chengqian Palace." ”

Who doesn't know that she is a maverick in this palace, no matter what she does wrong, the emperor will take care of her, not to mention that she is too lazy to wait for news at the moment, no one is willing to deal with her anyway, she is gone, and everyone is at ease.

In Kunning Palace, Xuan Ye was sitting on the edge of the queen's couch, the queen was hot and groggy, completely unaware that the emperor was close to her, Xuan Ye called her a few times, but there was no response, only listening to Dong Yun trembling and talking about falling into the water.

It turned out that the prince was greedy to run around, and slipped into the water from the big stone by the lake, the queen mother was the closest person, and jumped down to pull the prince without thinking about it, I don't know if it was cramped in the ice water, and I don't know if it was a heavy draft of cotton clothes on her body, she pushed the prince on the big stone, only to be pulled by the eunuch and palace maid who rushed over, and the queen herself sank, and there was a gust of wind passing by, blowing her to the center of the lake, although it was not far, but when the little eunuch around her took off her clothes and jumped down to fish, the queen had sunk to see only half of her head, I had already fainted when I got ashore.

The queen mother's eyes were moist on the side, and she sighed that the queen's beloved son was heartfelt, and persuaded Xuan Ye: "Dongyun is a few people she is used to, although she is derelict in her duties, now is not the time to punish, the emperor should not pursue it first, let them take good care of the queen." ”

"Huang Eniang said it very well." Xuan Ye responded, and saw the nurse bring the prince, the prince was not injured, nor was he soaked in the water for too long, after picking it up, the nurse immediately took off her wet clothes, took off her jacket and wrapped him, but he was frightened a lot, and kept crying, and he was very scared when he saw Xuan Ye.

"You can't be so playful in the future." Xuan Ye did not reprimand, reprimanded a child who was less than four years old, he may not understand, but was frightened to leave a shadow in his heart, coaxed him a few words, and let the nurse take him away.

The queen mother advised: "The queen is still young and will survive, don't worry too much about the emperor." ”

"Huang Eniang too, there are a few concubines here to serve the sick, and you can't work too hard." Xuan Ye responded, got up and wanted to ask the Queen Mother to leave, and the Queen Mother also knew that it was not in accordance with the rules for her to do so, so she did not embarrass the emperor and everyone and was sent out. Seeing that all the concubines were outside the door, he sighed, "Right now, Concubine Wen is serving in it, and it's not good to have too many people, you sisters and discuss which ones come to serve every day, the things in the palace are the most familiar to Concubine Hui and Concubine Rong, you are busy with these, don't wait for the queen to get better, but the palace is chaotic, and she lives up to her hard work in the past." ”

The concubines said yes, sending the queen mother away, the rest of the people, Hui Concubine and Rong Concubine were hand-picked to take care of the affairs of the palace, Duan Concubine has two princesses there, Yi Concubine will not take care of people, her sister Guo Guiren is even more so, An Guiren is unreliable, look at it, it is actually the most suitable two Zhong Cui Palace, Rong Concubine came to ask Lan Qi: "Are you two sisters willing to help Concubine Wen take care of the queen?" ”

How dare the two refuse, Concubine Rong dismissed the sisters, and Concubine Hui led the two of them in, and saw Concubine Wen sitting in the outer hall, explaining the meaning of the Queen Mother, and did not dare to go in to cause trouble, so she left first.

Concubine Wen is young, inadvertent, the last time the queen was sick, she was in a hurry, this time it was so sudden, only later, I saw her kneeling beside the bed crying, was reprimanded and said that it was so unlucky, so she was sent to the outer hall, and now I see the noble people and the noble people of Bu come to serve the sick, and I don't care if my sister wants to see them, it is better if someone can come to cook.

Not long after Dongyun came out, saying that the emperor invited Concubine Wen to go in, seeing that the nobles and nobles were also there, they could guess the reason why they stayed, so they invited them to enter together, Lan Qi slowly approached, and saw Xuan Ye sitting on the edge of the sickbed, and the touch of her back seemed familiar, so that she suddenly returned to the dark and heavy rain that day.

Xuan Ye turned around and saw Lan Qi, he was surprised and a little relieved, naturally it was inconvenient to show it at this moment, so he only instructed them: "Take good care of the queen's body, I will come to take a look from time to time, but most of the time, it will be hard for you." ”

The three of them all agreed, Xuan Ye saw that Concubine Wen was delicate and pitiful, and she really couldn't entrust it, but Bu Guigui and Lan Qi stood on the side, as if they could handle things, Lan Qi was even more relieved, and after a few more instructions, he also left Kunning Palace, and had to report to the imperial grandmother.

After the emperor left, the three of them discussed what to do, Concubine Wen was weak, and her eyes were red and crying after saying a few words, Lan Qi and Bu Guiren didn't say anything in front of her, and when they left, Bu Guiren sighed in private: "It seems that the imperial doctor has said something, and Concubine Wen is so sad." ”

Lan Qi can also see that the queen mother and the emperor are so dignified, the imperial doctor must have said bad things, and she even saw the sadness of the former Empress Hesheri when she passed away in Xuan Ye, she knew that Xuan Ye was never a ruthless person, and Queen Niu Hulu's dedication to this harem was seen by everyone, how could he ignore it.

As Lan Qi thought, Xuan Ye came to Cining Palace, the Queen Mother had already arrived first, Xuan Ye told the matter again, and saw tears in the corners of the imperial grandmother's eyes, as if she was blaming herself: "If I had known that she had such a motherly heart, I should have held the prince to raise her a long time ago, but now, she is afraid that she will be unblessed." ”

Xuan Ye's eyes were solemn, "The imperial doctor said that he might be able to raise it well, so don't worry too much about the imperial grandmother." ”

The Empress Dowager was very open-minded, shook her head and said: "There is still ice on the lake, so cold water choked into her lungs, she has an old disease that has not fully recovered, you tell me not to worry too much, it is better to let me be prepared in my heart as early as possible." "I choked up for a while, "It's also the child I watched grow up, and she has been wronged for the affairs of the court all these years, but she still controls the harem conscientiously, I live at this age, and I have a child......

Xuan Ye bent his knees to persuade his grandmother not to be too sad, there was still a glimmer of life at the moment, and the Empress Dowager calmed down and said: "If it can be better, the emperor will not treat her badly." ”

However, the queen's illness was dangerous, the cold water choked in the lungs, and when she picked it up, she was unconscious, and she burned all over her body for a day and a night, and she had convulsions and spasms in the middle of the night, and she tossed for two days, and the high fever only subsided a little, but her breathing was heavy and mixed, and she kept coughing when she woke up, coughing and vomiting, and she fell asleep in a groggy sleep, and then she was awakened from her dream, and over and over again, and after two or three days, she was so thin that her chin was sharp and her eye sockets were deep.

Lan Qi always saw the imperial doctor shake his head, Concubine Wen often asked but a few words and wept, the atmosphere in the Kunning Palace was gloomy, even the prince who was easy to get lively also changed back to his former appearance, this day Lan Qi stared at the medicine in the pantry, was blinded by the sparks from the stove, came out to blow the wind, saw the prince and the nurse entangled under the corridor in the distance, she walked over unconsciously, the nurse saw the noble person saluting, although the prince was not familiar with Lan Qi, but also ran over and cried and said: "I want to see the emperor's mother." ”

The nurse smiled bitterly behind her: "The mother is seriously ill, and the slave is afraid that the prince will not be good, so she will quarrel with the mother to rest, and second, in case it is passed on to the child." ”

"It's okay, if there's anything to do, just say that what I mean has nothing to do with you." Lan Qi held hands with the prince and said to the nurse, "The queen must also want to see the prince, the prince will not quarrel with her, and you don't have to worry about the rest." ”

The nurse just didn't want to take responsibility, since the noble people took it, she was also happy to let go, and came to the dormitory with her, just when the queen woke up, she drank the water and leaned softly on the pillow, and suddenly heard a "Huang Eniang", the whole person had spirits, and sat up a little to see Lan Qi leading the prince in.

The little guy let go of the hand of the noble man and ran to the side of the kang to lie down, the queen finally had a few smiles on her haggard face, and reached out and pinched the prince's cheek, "It's not good to eat these days, isn't it?" Look at the fat face and the fat face is ...... thin" Before he finished speaking, he coughed violently again, and turned his body inward while pushing the prince away.

Lan Qi hurriedly pulled the prince away, Dongyun and several people stepped forward to wait, she took the child and retreated outside and heard the coughing sound inside, the prince nested in her arms motionless, and only held back a sentence for a long time: "Will the emperor die?" ”

At such a young age, he already knows life and death, Lan Qi doesn't know who taught the prince, but the child is obviously deep in melancholy, lying on Lan Qi's shoulder and whimpering, thinking that the emperor will take the prince to inspect the mausoleum of Queen Hesheri several times, this child probably already understands who the mother died for, and now he is so easy to have another mother, but this one may die because of him, even if the nurses dare not say such things to him, but the palace maids and grandmothers muttered a few words in private, maybe he heard it.

Holding the prince at this moment, Lan Qi didn't know how to coax at all, but when he saw Xuan Ye coming in, he was a little surprised to see this scene, and the prince didn't dare to cry anymore when he saw Huang Amma, and clumsily wiped away his tears, Lan Qi saw the moment when the emperor hugged his son, the frustration and sadness in his eyes made people feel distressed.

Xuan Ye once told her that she didn't want the prince to be afraid when he saw him, so he wanted the queen to pamper him, so that he could grow up like other younger brothers and sisters. Maybe he won't remember what happened now in more than ten years, but it is rumored that if the queen can't escape this catastrophe, his "sins" will be even deeper, even if they are more than ten years, or even decades, they can't be erased.

At this time, Concubine Wen came out of the inner hall, and when she saw the emperor at first glance, she couldn't help but have red circles in her eyes, and she choked up and said, "Your Majesty, the queen wants to see the prince again." ”
