Chapter 059: Rescued Again
"He's dead?"
"Not really, but it almost died. The assassin burned the palanquin from the palace and shot two more arrows, but Lord Duan was not among them by chance, and only then did he escape. The emperor arranged for someone to accompany him to protect him in advance, and when the protector saw this, he directly escorted Lord Duan to a safe place from the path, so he escaped the pursuit. ”
Bao Qing breathed a sigh of relief, "And then?"
"The emperor was very angry when he learned about this, thinking that Lord Duan's assassination must be related to Niangniang, and he felt that it was inappropriate, so he kept his distance from Niangniang......"
Baoqing raised his eyebrows: "Could it be that he thought it was Duanling who was killed by this palace?" This palace did let Zhu Er teach him a lesson, but it was just to kill his sharp spirit and reward him with a few fists, and he didn't really want his life." He's a witness, and it's too late for Bengu to protect him!"
"No, no, no, the mother misunderstood the meaning of the minion. Xiao Zhizi knew that he was stupid, and hurriedly reorganized the language: "That's the case, the emperor said to the master that the person who assassinated Lord Duan must have heard that Lord Duan had come to Huayue Palace, and handed over the evidence to Niangniang." The emperor summons Niangniang to the Xuanzheng Hall every day, which is already very red-eyed, if you know that Niangniang is likely to hand over the evidence to the emperor, then Niangniang will be in danger. The emperor deliberately snubbed Niangniang, also to protect Niangniang. ”
Bao Qing nodded, it did make sense to say this. Xiao Cheng has a conscience and doesn't think she is an assassin.
Seeing Baoqing's indifferent appearance, Xiao Zhizi thought that she had not been able to understand what she meant, and hurriedly said: "Also, if the emperor doesn't care about Niangniang, how can he risk death to save him without knowing the nature of water? At that time, the emperor was walking in the garden alone, and when he saw that Niangniang was in danger, he jumped in desperately. If it weren't for the timely arrival of the slaves, the emperor would have given it to the mother several times, and I was afraid that he would ...... The emperor has been sick for several days, and he still coughs, and these ladies all know about it. ”
Bao Qing nodded again, and couldn't help but give a thumbs up to this loyal little branch in his heart, it seems that Gao De taught him very well to be able to speak for his master like this.
Referring to Xiao Cheng saving her, Daddy said that the grace of saving her life was to be reciprocated by springs, thinking so, she asked: "The emperor is still coughing?
Xiao Zhizi nodded aggrievedly: "I heard the emperor say that it is a problem left in the Hunan country." Hunan is bitterly cold, in winter, the emperor only wears a single coat, and he freezes out of the disease, so he can't stand the cold. Over the years, Imperial Physician Zhang has been conditioning for the emperor for a long time, and this time he fell into the water, and the root of the disease was raised. ”
Xiao Cheng's disease, Baoqing knows, because since he entered the palace, he has not seen him coughing, and he thought that he was already cured by raising people in the palace.
Picking up the chopsticks, Baoqing took a bite of the dish in his mouth: "Okay, okay, you know what you said about the palace, and the palace will eat it." ”
Xiao Zhizi's eyes suddenly emitted a bright brilliance: "It's good if Niangniang is willing to eat, and the slave will come to make vegetables for Niangniang!"
Looking at Xiao Zhizi's happy appearance, Bao Qing really couldn't bear to disturb his interest. But what is in front of him is obviously the best thing in the world, but Baoqing can't taste anything when he bites it in his mouth.
Eating with chewing wax, Baoqing wanted to cry without tears, she missed the thick porridge in the small kitchen.
After breakfast, Xiao Zhizi ran away happily, and Baoqing immediately summoned Wang Guiren.
Wang Guiren had already figured out his status, and as soon as he entered the hall, he asked, "What does Niangniang want the concubine to teach today?"
Wang Guiren thought for a while and said, "There are no pastries, but that pear soup is a good thing to suppress cough." ”
Bao Qing slapped the table: "Just it!"
Two hours later, Baoqing finally finished boiling the pear soup, wiped the sweat from the corners of her forehead, she couldn't help but admire Wang Guiren in her heart, at that time she sent snacks to the Xuan Zheng Hall every day, but it was really not something ordinary people could do.
After inquiring about Xiao Cheng in the Xuan Zheng Palace, Baoqing personally sent him with Sydney soup.
In the distance, the little branch who was waiting in front of the hall saw Baoqing, and a trace of panic flashed on his face.
It turned out that Concubine De Zhanxuan was also in the palace.
"Yesterday, Concubine De Niangniang fell down by the pond and injured her muscles and bones, and the imperial doctor was changing the medicine for Concubine De Niangniang in the palace, and Niangniang was afraid that she would have to wait outside the palace. ”
Zhan Xuan didn't pretend to be sick, he really broke his bones! Bao Qing smiled: "It's okay, the main palace is waiting here." ”
Xiao Zhizi waved his hand and ordered the palace people behind him to move a chair for Baoqing, but Baoqing didn't sit down.
This wait is half an hour, and it is easy to wait for the imperial doctor to come out, and Baoqing was just about to go over, when he saw Xiao Cheng and Zhan Xuan walking out holding each other. Zhan Xuan's arm was on Xiao Cheng's neck, and Xiao Cheng put his arms around Zhan Xuan's waist...... In such a scene, wouldn't it be too uninteresting for her to go to deliver Sydney soup? Thinking like this, Baoqing hurriedly hid behind the pillars.
Xiao Zhizi paused, and was about to say something, but Bao Qing immediately made a silent gesture to him. The little branch immediately covered her mouth obediently.
"Your Majesty, you took care of your concubines all night, and you must be tired just after the morning, and the concubines can leave by themselves. ”
"It doesn't matter. ”
Zhan Xuan was ashamed: "The emperor spoils his concubines like this, and the concubine's sister will be unhappy." ”
Xiao Cheng's brows furrowed, "She won't." ”
"The emperor blames Xiuru for looking for the emperor to come to the palace of the concubines? The concubines know that they shouldn't disturb the emperor and their sister, but the concubines miss the emperor too much, and if they can't see the emperor, the concubines will die of pain. ”
"Now that you've seen me, take care of your wounds. Xiao Cheng said lightly.
Zhan Xuan bit her lip, leaned over, and almost fell to the ground, but fortunately, Xiao Cheng helped her in time.
This time it was really bloody, obviously it was a fake fall, and it really broke her foot, and Baoqing, who was watching, hurt her when she saw it.
Xiao Cheng frowned again: "Why are you so careless!"
Zhan Xuan burst into tears: "My leg is broken, and my foot doesn't obey the call...... It's better for the emperor to pick up the concubines. ”
“......”
Bao Qing was dumbfounded, if she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would never believe that Concubine De, who was extremely proud in front of her, was such a little woman in front of Xiao Cheng.
Xiao Cheng looked reluctant, he was tossed by this woman all night, crying and crying so loudly that he was one head or two big, and it was easy to think that she would be able to stop when it was dawn, but he didn't expect that as soon as he came back from the morning, he saw that Zhan Xuan was already sitting in the Xuanzheng Hall.
He was really annoyed that Zhan Bei wanted to see his daughter in the court, and if Zhan Bei knew that his daughter had broken her leg and he would ignore him, maybe he would increase the number of worship posts again.
The Eastern Chu Laws, presented to the emperor, must be carefully reviewed regardless of the recital and prayer post, and stamped with the emperor's seal. As soon as he remembered that he was only covered with a prayer post that was about to be covered until Xiao Cheng, who was soft and troublesome, he had no choice but to stay in the Qixiu Palace.
If it weren't for that, he would have thrown her out and not be angry.
Xiao Cheng endured it, half-squatted down, and then hugged her sideways. Zhan Xuan exclaimed in surprise and hugged Xiao Cheng's neck coquettishly.
