Yu'er was distressed, but she could only watch because of her identity, Xin'er still held her neck and didn't want to admit her mistake, Li Xiyue saw this and shouted fiercely: "Fight again!" Yu'er closed her eyes worriedly and couldn't bear to look at it anymore, but before her father-in-law's hand fell, she heard the voice of the servant in the distance: "The Queen Mother has arrived!" ”

Everyone didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly knelt down to meet them. When the Queen Mother approached, she frowned at everyone and asked, "The mourning family heard that the camellia in the imperial garden is blooming just right, so I came to take a look, what's wrong with you?" ”

Li Xiyue hurriedly straightened up when she heard this, swept away Fang Cai's fierce eyes, slightly reddened, and replied with a crying voice: "Back to the Queen Mother, Xi Ronghua is talking nonsense and committing wanton crimes!" The concubine was angry and ordered someone to slap her mouth, who knew that she not only did not admit her mistake but also made provocative remarks, you have to be the master of the concubine! ”

The Queen Mother's eyes swept over Xin'er's swollen cheeks, and she asked lightly, "Is there really such a thing?" Xin'er replied neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Back to the Queen Mother, the concubine just said that she was going to the Niangniang Palace to ask for calligraphy and painting, and the Niangniang was angry!" The concubine is really wronged, and I don't know what is wrong! ”

Li Xiyue trembled when she heard the words, pointed at Xin'er with her finger, but she didn't know what to say, she couldn't and didn't dare to say it to the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother was already becoming more and more cold to herself because of this matter, and now she mentioned it, wouldn't she force herself to a dead end, so she had to swallow Huang dumbly and even "You ......" for a long time without saying anything.

Seeing this, the Queen Mother shook her head, "Okay, even if she speaks frivolously, you will fight it, and the mourning family will be the master of today's affairs, you all go back to the palace to reflect, don't make noise here and lose the royal face!" ”

"Yes!" The three of them replied in unison and went back to the palace.

Yu'er kept sending Xin'er back to Dieqi Palace, and ordered Jinxin to invite Zhou Mingli over. Zhou Mingli rushed to see Xin'er with high and swollen cheeks, and when he was slightly stunned, he only focused on looking at the wound, and only glanced at it twice to know that it was a palm mark left by someone's palm, and blurted out: "Who has the little master offended?" Xin'er ignored him, but Yu'er opened her mouth and replied: "She is getting better and better now, and she doesn't take me in her eyes, she dares to say sarcastic words about Concubine Xian, today is fortunate that the Queen Mother came by chance, next time I'm afraid that I will go to the Criminal Division to see her!" There was a trace of resentment in Zhou Mingli's eyes, and he hated Concubine Xian in the end, so he ordered someone to use a handkerchief to cold Xin'er. Xin'er finally reacted when she heard Yu'er say this, and replied in a low voice: "What did my sister say, when did my sister stop taking you in her eyes!" Yu'er sighed heavily and sat down beside her, "Good sister, if you really recognize me as a sister, don't be so fierce next time, only by protecting yourself can you do what you want, and if you blindly come out, I'm afraid that it won't end well!" Seeing her sincerity, Xin'er couldn't bear to refuse people for thousands of miles, so she looked back and nodded, "Sister wrote it down!" ”

In the past few days, Xin'er's face was originally only a few bruises and palm marks, but it was always not good, and she rubbed it with eggs every day and applied ointment to reduce swelling and remove stasis, and Zhou Mingli came to see it every day, and the prescription for blood circulation and blood stasis was changed a few times, but the wound was not only not good, but had a faint tendency to fester. Yu'er was anxious, and Zhou Mingli was also puzzled. As a palace concubine, if she has a scar on her face, how can she serve the king, if it is really so, Xin'er's future will be ruined from now on! On the other hand, Xin'er doesn't care much, and she still reads and writes every day and doesn't pay attention to it at all. On this day, Chu Sheng came to the Splendid Palace for dinner, teased the second prince, and only said that there were still some folds in the palace to see, so he got up and went back to the palace. Yu'er saw that the time was still early, and she was worried about Xin'er's face in her heart, so she went to the Dieqi Palace with her heart, and just stepped into the gate of the Dieqi Palace, she saw a figure standing sneakily under the corridor, not knowing what she was doing. Yu'er looked at her, and Jinxin stepped forward quietly, and when she got closer, she scolded loudly: "Who is it?" What the hell are you doing? The man was startled, looked back, and saw that there was no way to avoid it, and hurriedly knelt down. The people in the Dieqi Palace heard the noise and came out to take a look, and finally even Xin'er followed, and the little palace maid next to her held a lamp in her hand and took a picture of the person kneeling on the ground. But I saw that it was a little eunuch with a face, and he was not a person from the Dieqi Palace. Xin'er Qi said: "Who are you?" What are you doing in my Butterfly Palace? ”

The man's face was pale and trembled slightly, and he replied hesitantly: "The slave got lost for a while, stumbled into the little master's palace, didn't want to disturb the little master's rest, and hoped that the little master would atone for his sins and spare the slave!" ”

Xin'er's eyebrows furrowed slightly when she heard this, and she didn't know what he said, Yu'er slowly walked into her heart, her mind turned around, but her face remained calm and calm, and asked, "Which palace are you from?" ”

The man looked up and saw that it was Yu'er, smiled flatteringly with a white face, and replied: "The slave asks for Yugui's concubine, and the slave is from Yingyue Palace!" ”

Hearing the three words of Yingyue Palace, Yu'er and Xin'er looked at each other and felt that this matter was strange. Yu'er's face was a little cold, and she asked in a deep voice: "Yingyue Palace and Dieqi Palace are one in the east and the other in the west, you are too far lost on this road!" ”

The kneeling person was already in a cold sweat when he heard Yu'er say this, and kowtowed again and again: "Niang Niang spare your life!" The minion is right! ”

Seeing that he still refused to let go, Yu'er reprimanded: "Bold minion, this palace will not cry when you see the coffin, come and search the palace!" As he spoke, someone from the Butterfly Palace came up three times and shook off his clothes, and sure enough, he found a small paper bag. Seeing this, Yu'er snorted coldly and took the lead in entering the main hall and sat down on the top, and then Xin'er also walked in, and someone behind her had already escorted the disheveled little eunuch in.

The little eunuch knelt under the hall and trembled, his face long gone. Yu'er was not in a hurry to take a sip of the green jade wrapped lotus branch teacup on her side, and after a while, Sen Senran opened her mouth and asked, "What is in this paper bag?" The little eunuch trembled coldly when he heard Yu'er's question, and retracted: "Hui Niangniang, it's just some ordinary medicinal powder, and the slave has a hidden disease since he was a child, and he carries some medicinal powder with him just in case!" ”

Hearing this, Yu'er looked back and instructed Jinxin: "You go and find Imperial Doctor Zhou, and say that there is something to ask him in this palace!" ”

"Yes! Slave and maid, go now! Jinxin said yes and rushed out.

Seeing this, the little eunuch who was kneeling on the ground turned a little pale, and his body, which was barely kneeling, was now crooked to the side as if he couldn't stand it. Yu'er didn't care, he just waited patiently.

After a while, Zhou Mingli hurried over, and on the way, Jinxin had already roughly told him the ins and outs of the matter. As soon as he stepped into the door, he even asked An Du to ask, "Niangniang, where is the medicine powder?" Without waiting for Yu'er to answer, a maidservant presented the small medicine bag to him, he opened it, first looked at it carefully, then put it under his nose and smelled it, his face was suspicious, and finally twisted it a little and put it in his mouth to taste, his face suddenly rose with horror, knelt down and said: "Niangniang, this is the ginger powder, take the old ginger and dry it in the sun, and then grind it carefully, so that there is no spicy taste of ginger, even if you take it, you can't feel it." ”

Yu'er originally thought it was some kind of poison, but now it sounds like just ordinary ginger, but seeing Zhou Mingli's face, it doesn't seem to be so simple. Just when Yu'er was puzzled, Xin'er said coldly: "People with wounds on their bodies should avoid eating spicy and stimulating things, especially ginger, which will cause the wound to not heal and fester, and even if it barely heals, it will leave a large scar!" In the end, due to anger, the little face was slightly distorted, and a few hideous wounds were called, which made it more and more frightening!

Hearing this, Yu'er stood up in surprise and asked Zhou Mingli, who was kneeling on the ground, "Is it unsolvable?" Zhou Mingli shook his head dejectedly, "Now it seems that the little master has been taking it for many days, but I am afraid that he will leave some scars!" Yu'er only felt that her chest was extremely dull, she closed her eyes and slowly sat down, and only came back to her senses and said to the little eunuch: "What else do you have to say now?" "The little eunuch was already stunned, and he didn't know what he was doing. Seeing this, Yu'er ignored him, turned her head and ordered: "Send someone to invite the emperor, the queen and the virtuous concubine!" When the people in the hall heard the word Concubine Xian, they finally reacted, trembled and burst into tears, and shouted: "Niang Niang spare her life!" Mother's life! ”

With the singing of the chamberlain, the queen took the lead in entering the gate of the Dieqi Palace, everyone was busy bending their knees to say goodbye, the queen glanced around and sat down on the top, and ordered: "Get up!" The crowd thanked them and stood up straight and waited. After a while, the emperor and Concubine Xian also entered the main hall with their front and back feet, and they asked for thanksgiving again, and then they began to speak.

Chu Sheng saw that Yu'er was also there, and saw a little eunuch kneeling in disheveled clothes and tears on his face, and asked puzzledly: "What's the matter?" What the hell is the matter with calling me in a hurry? ”

Yu'er secretly glanced at Li Xiyue, she didn't show any timidity, she couldn't see a clue on her face, and stepped forward and replied: "Back to the emperor, the concubine came to see Sister Xi, and I saw that the kneeling person in the hall was sneaky in the Butterfly Palace, and I didn't know what to do, so the concubine ordered someone to investigate, and after careful questioning, I learned that he was from Yingyue Palace." As she spoke, her eyes swept over Li Xiyue's face, and she asked with a sneer: "I don't know if Concubine Xian Niangniang can recognize this person?" ”

Li Xiyue covered her nose with a handkerchief and looked at it with disgust, and said: "It looks a little familiar, but there are many people in this palace, and not everyone in this palace knows it." ”

Yu'er didn't care about her, and continued to return to the emperor: "The concubine saw that this person was really suspicious, so she ordered someone to search her body, but she didn't want to find a small medicine bag on him. As Yu'er spoke, a little palace maid presented the medicine bag, Li Fu took it and handed it to Chu Sheng, who looked at it twice and asked, "What is this?" Seeing this, Zhou Mingli, who was standing on the side, stepped forward and knelt down and said, "Back to the emperor, Weichen has already taken a closer look, this is Jiang Mo." ”

Chu Sheng frowned and didn't know why, and only gave Zhou Mingli a questioning look. Seeing this, Yu'er bent her knees and replied: "Your Majesty, this matter is a long story, so the concubines won't go into details, look at Sister Xi's face." Chu Sheng was slightly stunned and looked at Xin'er, gasped in surprise and asked, "I haven't come to see you for a few days, what's wrong with you?" ”
