Chapter 178: The Empress Visits the East Palace in Person

The prince drank a few sips of Pu'er tea and was about to get up and go to the west study to review the chapters of various places, but he heard Gao Jin tell him that the queen had arrived.

"Niangniang is here, where is she?"

Yuan Zhi was shocked when he heard this.

Since the last night of horror in the Shulan side hall of Funing Palace, he has not dared to go to Funing Palace to see the queen mother again for more than half a month, for fear of unforeseen circumstances.

Unexpectedly, the queen couldn't bear it, so she came to the door by herself.

"Your Royal Highness, the Xianglan Hall where the queen's Fengluan went directly should be to visit Concubine Lan." Gao Jin replied cautiously.

It was not easy for the queen to visit the prince's concubine in person in the Xianglan Hall of the East Palace.

The prince of the East Palace did not show his gratitude in person, which was morally unreasonable, but was blindly suspicious.

"Let's go to the Pandan Palace."

Yuan Zhi thought about it for a while, but decided to go to the Xianglan Palace.

Speaking of Xianglan Palace, since Concubine Lan has been bedridden for a long time, it has been quiet here, and the palace maids, eunuchs, and grandmothers are all light-handed.

The imperial doctor said that Concubine Lan needed to recuperate.

Cao Feilan's body was very weak, and her lower body was infected with the uterine opening, and she had a high and low fever.

Today launched a hot high fever, the palace ladies and grandmothers in the house were in a hurry, fortunately there was a female medical officer, and the medicine was also boiled in advance.

She was lying on the bed with a pale face, and the personal palace maid Xiaoqiu was waiting by her side.

Xiaoqiu was begged by Concubine Lan to come back to the crown prince.

The female official Xiaoqiu didn't let other palace maids get close to Concubine Lan's body, but only asked them to bring hot water and clean towels.

She knelt on the footboard, wiped the sweat on Concubine Lan's forehead and body, and comforted: "There are slaves and maids here, you can rest in peace." ”

The security measures of the Xianglan Hall are very strict, and people and objects close to them must be strictly inspected, tested for poison and other measures.

If something happens to Concubine Lan, these people will have to bear the joint sitting method, including their families.

Concubine Lan was still muttering in her mouth, and she could only vaguely hear it if Xiaoqiu approached her mouth.

The hanging curtains cover the figures in the room, the candlelight sways in the wind, and the decoction on the mahogany table is faintly steaming.

In the afternoon, the sun was high, and the queen mother arrived, and behind her was the female official Jasper, as well as a few personal palace maids, carrying a lot of precious supplements in the palace.

Cao Feiyan signaled that everything was exempt from courtesy, and that she should not shout loudly, but the palace maid still entered the bedroom and said, "Concubine Lan, the queen has arrived." ”

Concubine Lan was too weak to get up, so she asked Xiaoqiu to put another pillow under her neck.

The bead curtain was raised, and the queen walked into the house alone, hurriedly stretched out her hand to signal Concubine Lan not to move, and said with a smile: "I'll take the time to visit you, Lan'er, are you better?" ”

As she spoke, she stepped forward and sat on the edge of the bed, reaching out to hold Cao Feilan's shriveled and bloodless hand.

Cao Feilan's eyes widened, grinned slightly, and said softly: "Xie Niangniang, you came in person, Lan'er is ashamed." ”

"Don't be so formal, this palace should have come earlier."

The queen is dressed in a long skirt with a lake-colored full moon shining on the branches, her cheeks are slightly pink, her hair accessories are light and simple, the golden hairpin is inserted horizontally, her hair is combed, and she deliberately does not want the queen's hair, everything is plain.

Even so, it can't hide her delicate appearance and plump figure.

Cao Feilan's abortion incident has been more than 20 days, and the queen has sent King Yuanxuan of Jin and the female official Biyu to offer condolences several times, and it is the first time that she has visited Xianglan Hall in person.

The main reason is that everyone knows it well and tacitly.

She came to visit this time, and she still made up her mind, after all, it was her father and brother who did the bad thing.

However, she was determined to come to visit, saying that the matter had nothing to do with her.

Cao Feilan still has this awareness, although she hates Cao Mansion to the core, but when the queen arrives, she is still passable in etiquette.

The two sisters still chatted without a word, inseparable from the condition, recovery, and the content of their concerns, and people who don't know the truth sound that everything is normal.

After bending down and talking for a long time, the queen straightened up and raised her head, and saw a pot of orchids on the windowsill of the bedroom, which looked half-wilted in the bright sunlight.

Look at Concubine Lan again, the beautiful appearance of the former water spirit has become pale and dull, and she has escaped the half-wilted orchid.

Changed.

A month ago, the queen was still envious of this little cousin, saying that she was blessed by misfortune and favored by the prince.

But now?

Alas, the world is unpredictable.

The queen felt a little sympathetic to Concubine Lan in her heart.

Men fight for power, and women suffer.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived."

With the little eunuch outside the room singing in a low voice, Yuan Zhi walked in with the curtain raised.

"Erchen has seen the queen mother, on such a cold day, the queen mother came to the East Palace to visit Concubine Lan in person, thank you."

Yuan Zhi bowed respectfully.

"Prince Fuli, you are busy with state affairs, you must rarely come to Xianglan Palace, this palace has spare time, I will come and take a look if I think of it, it seems that Lan'er is fine, she only needs to recuperate for a long time."

Cao Feiyan glanced at Yuan Zhi very calmly, but when he spoke, he had a gun and a stick, and there was something in his words.

"The queen mother has taught her a lesson."

In fact, Cao Feiyan was wrong to blame Yuan Zhi.

He had to visit Cao Feilan in Xianglan Hall almost every day, either early in the morning or before going to bed at night.

Every time I come, I don't have a long time, a simple greeting or a few pleasantries, a shake of hands and a touch of my forehead or something.

These have brought endless warmth to Cao Feilan.

With these, she struggled with the pain and actively cooperated with the treatment.

How she hopes that she will recover as soon as possible, love the prince as before, and give birth to children for him.

"Okay, you're here, and the palace is ready to drive back to the palace." Cao Feiyan snorted lazily, turned back to Cao Feilan and said:

"Lan'er, you are so restive, and the Japanese Palace will come to see you later."

Without waiting for anyone to react, she got up and walked out.

"The son sends off the queen mother."

Yuan Zhi hurriedly stepped forward, respectfully supported her elbow with his hand, stepped over the threshold, and walked down the steps step by step.

The others avoided it and followed.

Seeing that the prince knew each other, Cao Feiyan's face had a warm color, his eyebrows were full of spring, his slender white jade hand was lightly placed on his sleeve, and the round inch armor gently stroked the green tendons on the back of his hand, and said in a low voice:

"Wrongdoer, you have made an old mistake again, and you haven't come to see this palace for twenty days, don't you feel ruthless."

At the last word, she bit her silver teeth and poked the back of his hand with sharp nails.

Yuan Zhi frowned slightly, he didn't withdraw his hand, and whispered in a low voice:

"I was shocked last time, where do I dare to go, there are too many undercover agents in Funing Palace, you have to clean it up."

"This matter has to be considered in the long run, and the sudden internal investigation will naturally cause the dissatisfaction of my father, for fear that he will make another ruthless move, and the palace is worried..."

Cao Feiyan wanted to speak and stopped, and then it was inconvenient to speak.

Look, she has something on her mind.

However, she was right, she carried out internal censorship in Funing Palace and mobilized the public, which attracted the suspicion of outsiders.

If Cao Qichang directly believes that his daughter has also betrayed Caofu, it will be even more unfavorable to the current situation.

"That's... We'd better see each other less in the near future. ”

Yuan Zhi's expression is implicit, he says to meet less, but in fact he doesn't meet.

For the prince's ruthless answer, Cao Feiyan was of course not happy.
