Chapter 56: The Dark Knot of the Bead Fetus (Part II)
Sometimes, without the emperor's company, I would also go to Ganye Temple to offer incense. On the eighth day of the first lunar month of the first year of Yonghui, I went to Ganye Temple alone again. I would like to take advantage of the Buddhist festival of Shakyamuni Buddha's enlightenment day to pray for the blessings of my deceased father and Mingda. After that, the palace will be busy with the New Year's affairs, and I will not have the opportunity to walk out of the Daxing Palace for a long time.
The nuns of Ganye Temple were performing rituals early in the morning. I silently recited the "Mantra of Death", and recited the new translation of Master Xuanzang's "Sutra of Breaking Vajra Prajnaparamita" and "Prajnaparamita Heart Sutra" silently, and then I got up in front of the statue of Shakyamuni Buddha.
I looked at everyone and found that Wu Mei was not in the morning class. I paced to the host and asked her, "Dare to ask the host, where is the clear sky?" ”
The host folded with me and respectfully replied, "Amitabha! Returning to the princess, Mingkong has been unwell for the past few days, and the old nun has been exempted from her morning class and has taken her to recuperate. ”
I bowed my head slightly and said, "Chang Shan has gone to visit Mingkong and will not disturb the morning class of the host and all the masters." After speaking, he turned around and walked out of the Daxiong Treasure Hall slowly.
Ganye Temple, a female nun in charge, although she is in the Buddhist gate, but they are all people who have gone through the harem intrigues. Now that the emperor and I have expressed our concern for Wu Mei, they will not embarrass her, and maybe even scold her. So when I heard that Wu Mei was sick, I wasn't worried at all.
I still plan to visit Wu Mei and decide whether to tell the emperor or not, depending on her physical condition. Now that we are approaching the end of the year, the emperor has many political and family affairs to deal with. And many family affairs need to be handled and decided by the emperor and the empress together, and the time that the emperor and empress spend together has greatly increased. Before the emperor makes proper arrangements for Wu Mei, I don't want the queen to see some clues and add unnecessary trouble.
Before coming to the Wu Mei meditation room, I told Yu Han and Yun Qing to stay at the door, and then stretched out my hand, "babbling", I pushed open the door of the Wu Mei meditation room.
"Jingjing, why are you here today?" Wu Mei, who was originally reclining on the couch, sat up straight, she obviously didn't expect me to appear, quite surprised. Wu Mei and I get along quite well, and the two of us have already called each other by nicknames in private.
"Today, on the enlightenment day of Shakyamuni Buddha, I came to pray for the first emperor and Princess Jinyang, and by the way, I visited Mei Niang. After today, Jingjing is afraid that she will not have time to visit Mei Niang again until after the Lantern Festival. ”
"I know." Although Wu Mei said this, her eyes were full of loss, because my words were tantamount to telling her that during this time, the emperor did not have time to come to meet her.
"Listen to the host master, Mei Niang is unwell?"
"Actually, I'm fine, I'm just a little dizzy, I don't want to eat, but I'm worried about Jingjing."
I stretched out my hand, gently grabbed her right hand, and put my fingers on her veins: "Back then, Jingjing also read medical books for the princess of Jinyang and the first emperor, although she was not very proficient in medical skills, but she also knew a little about it. Let's let Jingjing take the pulse for Mei Niang. ”
Since I have already said so, Wu Mei did not refuse.
My fingers pressed on Wu Mei's white Shengxue's arm, and I couldn't help but be shocked. Her veins are sleek, like a bead-on, typical slippery veins. Thinking of her dizziness and loss of appetite, could it be her......
Seeing that I was shocked, Wu Mei couldn't help but ask: "What disease do I have?" Jingjing will tell the truth. ”
"Jingjing took the liberty to ask, has Mei Niang ever been here this month?"
