Chapter Twenty-Nine: Lan Gu Delivers Food

The sky is gloomy, a little light rain, as the saying goes, the spring rain is as expensive as oil, if it is before the epidemic, the emperor will be very happy, the people have land to grow and eat food, in order to be peaceful and peaceful, but now this spring rain is afraid that no one appreciates.

Father-in-law Su listened to the angry scolding coming from the main hall of the Qianqing Palace, shook his head with a sigh, and stood up straight like the guards on both sides.

On the road in front of the hall, a palace maid in blue clothes came, carrying a food box, and walked quickly towards Grandpa Su with a decent smile. It was raining lightly in the sky, and she didn't have an umbrella, so she covered the food box with her sleeves.

"Yo, Aunt Lan, why are you here? But what important things does the imperial concubine have to order? Father-in-law Su glanced at the little eunuch next to him, and the apprentice Xiao Weizi immediately found a spare oil-paper umbrella and handed it to Father-in-law Su.

Father-in-law Su took the umbrella handed over by the little apprentice Xiao Yunzi, and hurriedly stepped forward to hold an umbrella for Lan Gu to cover the rain, "Why don't you take an umbrella and come over again?" ”

"Thank you, Grandpa Su! It hadn't rained yet, and I was in a hurry, so I didn't bring an umbrella. Besides, this rain is also small, not a big deal, I like this kind of rain. Lan Gu smiled and thanked Grandpa Su.

When she went to the door of the main hall and listened to the discussion inside, Lan Gu asked, "Can the Holy Lord have lunch?" Niangniang was worried, I heard that the emperor was so busy that he didn't eat well these days, and he didn't sleep well, so she specially asked the slave maid to go on a special trip to see how the emperor was? ”

Father-in-law Su shook his head and said: "I eat less, sleep less, everyone is haggard, and the black one right now is the same as an old slave." ”

Hearing this, Lan Gu glanced at Gonggong Su carefully, and frowned, "Then how can you do it?" Seeing this situation, it was inconvenient for me to go in, so I brought the wheat bird's nest porridge that my mother ordered to make in the kitchen, and after a while, my father-in-law saw that the emperor was free, so he took the time to take it in for the emperor to eat. ”

"Eh, eh." Father-in-law Su answered twice and took the food box.

"I'll go back to take care of Niangniang first, Niangniang has been restless lately, always irritable, and it's always not easy to look at me when I'm not by Niangniang's side." Lan Gu wanted to speak and stopped.

Seeing this, Gonggong Su asked more: "What's wrong?" ”

Lan Gu thought about it and leaned close to Grandpa Su's ear and whispered.

Father-in-law Su's eyes lit up, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise: "Really? ”

"It should be." Lan Gu nodded.

"Ouch, it can be regarded as a happy event, and the emperor will definitely be much happier now!" Father-in-law Su was so happy that he couldn't hide his smile.

"Shhh Lan Gu glanced at him with annoyance.

"Yes, yes, the old slave knows." Su Gonggong's face changed and his face was serious.

"Then I'll go back first!"

"Good, good." Lan Gu took two steps before Father-in-law Su remembered, "Eh, bring an umbrella and bring an umbrella!" "I was so distracted that I almost forgot to give me an umbrella.

"Okay, thank you Grandpa Su, I'll have someone send it over when I get back." Lan Gu was not restrained, and took the umbrella generously.

After looking for a food tasting eunuch to try it, there was no problem, and Gonggong Su took advantage of the fact that the discussion in the middle was not so frequent, and walked in quietly with a food box.

The rich ambergris incense swirled from the intricately carved and ornate incense burner, and as soon as the door was opened and entered, the aroma made people feel calm, and the two columns of ministers and imperial doctors knelt on the ground and bowed their heads and did not dare to speak.

The bright yellow dragon boots paced back and forth with the irritability of the master, and the emperor had a straight face with his hands behind his back, scratching the back of his head from time to time.

"What's the use of raising you waste? One of you is a well-known criminal department, and you haven't been able to find out the origin of the epidemic for three days? One is the collection of the best doctors in the world, but I don't know how to treat it after three days? ”

"Rice bucket! Rubbish! "The emperor was so angry that he kicked a leading minister, and a leading doctor with a kick, of course, the emperor has always been not very good at the head, and he didn't kick the right people.

The minister who had the bottom in his heart turned his body without changing his face, so that the emperor's feet were stepped on, the honest imperial doctor hesitated, and he didn't move in time enough, the emperor stepped on the air, jumped like thunder, stepped on it again, stepped on it, and was comfortable.

The minister, Lord Wei, trembled habitually, knelt upright again, and replied: "Back to the emperor, in recent years, in addition to the large-scale smallpox outbreak five years ago, a small-scale plague occurred in the south of the city a month ago, and it was confirmed to be typhoid fever.

But at the foot of the Son of Heaven, the garrison was heavily guarded, and the discovery was timely, and Lord Yin Yang of Shuntian Mansion and his subordinates controlled the disease area very well, and it did not spread. ”

Lord Wei raised his eyes and peeked at the emperor, seeing that the emperor did not react, obviously the emperor also knew about this, and continued: "Eh, but the old minister does not dare to guarantee that there are people with bad intentions who harbor the sick and bring their personal belongings into the palace, causing the current epidemic in the palace."

Although the epidemic in the palace was first discovered in Concubine Jing's Niangniang Palace, Lao Chen found that looking at the whole palace, it was the palace people served by Brother Ah who had the most symptoms, although it was a day late, but it was also about the same......"

Father-in-law Su didn't go in, walked into the side door next to the porch of the main hall, and quietly put things on a small dining table in the side hall, on which there were already several boxes, and picked the most conspicuous one for the imperial concubine's food box, and hurriedly withdrew.

Behind him, Lord Wei's report continued......
