Chapter 7: The Storm 3
"Jinxin, what's going on today?" As soon as he returned to the dormitory, Nian Nian asked.
Jinxin helped the master to sit down, stood up and replied: "The slave maid heard that the little master coughed twice last night, and this morning Sister Jixiang went to the imperial pharmacy to ask for some Chuanbei to come back to boil water for the little master to drink, who knew that the road met the Yue Gui Concubine, saying that the sister somehow collided with the noble concubine, the noble concubine ordered someone to slap her mouth, she not only refused to accept but also spoke disrespectfully, the noble concubine was angry and punished the court staff, who knew that the sister was weak, and the board was not finished beating people and went. ”
Nian Nian's face couldn't bear it, and he said in a deep voice: "Jixiang grew up with me, and he has been safe and careful since he was a child, how could he bump into her for no reason." ”
Jinxin was also a little concerned, and replied: "Sister Jixiang is just a slave, the master says that she is wrong, how can anyone care if she is really wrong, I think even if there is no today, tomorrow, the day after tomorrow will be wrong." Just ......"
Seeing her swallowing like this, Situ Nian frowned slightly, and said coldly, "If you have something to say, say it!" ”
Seeing this, Jinxin took a step forward and replied: "Yingyue Palace and the Imperial Pharmacy are in two directions, how can the little master think about it so coincidentally?" How could Sister Jixiang meet the concubine of the moon? How did they know that Sister Jixiang would go to the Imperial Pharmacy? ”
Situ Nian's eyebrows skipped a beat, "You mean someone reported the news?" ”
Jinxin nodded and said, "This is in the palace, it's normal!" ”
Niannian's face was even more angry, "I can't let such a person stay by Su'er's side, you help me keep an eye on it." ”
"Slaves obey!"
In the past few days, Su'er has been sick, and every day she misses a person to ask for peace, except for the first day, the queen asked a few words as usual, and no one cared about what illness this unfavored Baolin had. Situ Nian would go to Su'er's dormitory every day to talk to her, and she was fine, but her spirit was not very good.
After dinner that day, Su'er suddenly came over and said, "Sister, I'm already well, I'll go with you tomorrow to greet the queen." ”
Su'er was reading a book, and when she heard her speak, she hurriedly put down the book in her hand and showed a look of concern, and replied, "Is it all right?" A few more days of rest will be fine. ”
"It's all right, sister rest assured!" Xu'er nodded and sat down on the chair in front of her, and continued: "When I first entered the palace, I saw that the osmanthus flowers in this courtyard were blooming well, so I let Dongmei harvest some. ”
"You're going to do that?" Nian'er said as she asked Jinxin to put away the jar handed over by Dongmei.
Su'er's cheeks were slightly red, "It's all now learned and sold, and I don't know what the taste is!" When I ask for peace tomorrow, I also want to bring a can to the queen mother, but I haven't been going to ask for peace when I'm sick these days, which is always bad. ”
Situ Nian nodded with satisfaction, after this incident, my sister is finally more sensible!
Seeing her like this, Su'er said with some hesitation: "It's just that there is nothing in the queen's palace, I'm afraid of this sugar dew ......."
Situ Nian smiled gently, changed to a more comfortable sitting position, and replied: "Silly girl, the queen naturally won't lack you a jar of sugar syrup, but this intention is the most important thing, and the queen will be happy to know that you respect her so much."
Su'er finally showed a happy look on her face when she heard this, "That's good, then I'll come to my sister tomorrow morning, and my sister should rest early." ”
In front of the gate of Fengyang Palace, I saw that Concubine Yue's step was also coming here, and Dongmei took a sip, "It's really unlucky!" ”
"Don't want to die?" Situ Nian was so anxious that he scolded her. Hurriedly pulled Xu'er to stand intently, and waited for their group to approach respectfully and greet him.
Concubine Yue didn't wake up when she saw them, but only slowly stepped down before she said with a smile on her face: "Sisters, get up quickly, don't be formal." ”
When he saw Su'er, he said kindly: "Subaolin is also here, and his body is better?" ”
Su'er said lightly: "Back to Niangniang, the concubine just occasionally felt cold, and I feel much better today!" ”
Seeing this, Concubine Yue nodded kindly, "That's good!" On that day, your maidservant rushed into the palace, not because the palace was ruthless, but because she dared to put the title of the palace. This palace also knows that it should not be compared with the moon, but the emperor is grateful, and the queen mother insists on this, and this palace does not dare to accept it! It's just a pity that her body is weak, and she can't even stand a few boards, and Bengong didn't expect it to be like this! As he spoke, he tucked the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief.
Concubine Yue's real name is Li Xiyue, although she entered the palace a few years earlier than them, she is not much older, with a goose egg face, a pair of big and round eyes, and her skin can be broken by blowing, such a person looks like a well-behaved and cute appearance, no wonder the emperor likes it.
Although Su'er hated her when she heard her say this, she still pouted with a proper smile and replied: "Niangniang is glorious through the ages, shining with the sun and the moon, it is appropriate to use the word 'moon' as a title, it is not good for concubines, it makes Niangniang angry, and I hope Niangniang will not take it to heart." ”
Li Xiyue laughed with a "giggle", "It's all my own sisters who don't have to be so polite, it's just that there are some little tricks that don't work, and it's not good if the gains outweigh the losses." ”
Su'er chuckled in her heart, she already understood what she was referring to, and replied: "The concubine understands! ”
Li Xiyue didn't look at her and walked in with her slender hand, "Let's go, don't let the queen wait for us!" ”
If there is nothing important, please An is always like this, the queen said a few words, and let "disperse". The concubines retired one after another. The Situ sisters stayed at the end and called the queen
Situ Nian was the first to speak: "Queen Mother! ”
The queen stopped and asked, "Situ Baolin, is there something wrong?" ”
Situ Nian stepped forward and replied: "My sister pickled some osmanthus sugar dew a few days ago, and specially sent a jar to Niangniang. ”
Seeing this, Su'er also immediately said: "The concubine knows that the mother is not lacking anything, this sugar dew was placed by the concubine herself and given to the mother to express her heart, and she has been sick for the past few days, please be safe in the future, and the concubine is ashamed!" Situ Su then replied.
The queen glanced at her, and a gentle and dignified smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, "It's okay, it's important to take care of your body!" Your heart has been understood! As he spoke, he asked the palace maid beside him to accept the jar, and then instructed the person beside him: "Pick up the moon and bring some of the blood swallows that the emperor gave to the palace." The palace maid who called the moon got the order and turned around.
The queen sat down on the throne, and Ying Ying spoke: "This blood swallow is the best to maintain your body, you can take some back and take care of it." You don't have to be formal, relax your mind, and the disease will naturally heal faster. ”
"Thank you Niangniang for the reward, Niangniang not only gave birth to a closed moon and a shy flower, but also was so kind-hearted, the concubine is really unrequited." Su'er immediately knelt down to thank her, and said that she was a little choked.
The queen looked leisurely into the distance, "Closing the moon and shy flowers?" This palace is old, how dare you compete with the sun and the moon? As he spoke, he used the red gold armor on his little finger to scratch the small table in front of him. Situ Nian chuckled in his heart when he heard this, it must be that the queen knew what Su'er said to Concubine Yue in the courtyard before, and she minded.
"The queen mother is the mother of a country, with both ability and political integrity, the sun, moon and stars are like the light of the candle in front of you, and you still have to bow down to the ministers, in the hearts of the concubines, the sun and the moon are ethereal and useless, which can be the mother of the mother to take care of it in case." Thinking about it, Su'er also thought of this, and immediately replied loudly.
"Oh? What do you think? The queen asked as she retracted her eyes and stared at Su'er.
"Niangniang governs the harem leniently and strictly, and it is also hard work to think about it, if there are some trivial things in the future, the concubines can help, and I hope that the concubines will do their part to repay the mother's love." Su'er knelt down as she spoke, and Situ Nian on the side knelt down when he saw this.
The queen glanced at the two people on the ground secretly, and slowly spoke, "Okay, your intentions are understood by the palace, and Baolin should be tired, go back and rest early." ”
"Yes, the concubine is retired!" The two of them got up and were about to go out, when they heard that the queen said again: "It's a pity that Baolin has been sick like this, prepare early, and the palace should also mention that the emperor is wet with rain and dew." Hearing this, the two stiffened, knelt down and thanked him, and the queen smiled and walked away with the hand of Shiyue.
