Jingsu lay on the bed all day and night, not eating, drinking, sleeping or talking. Concubine Jing's visit was also rejected. She was already more than three months pregnant and her belly was slightly visible, so she paid special attention to it.

For food and drink, except for the area around Fuli Palace, I rarely go to such a far place. This time I insisted on coming, but it failed to arouse Jingsu Dingdian's reaction. She was a little sad, holding Yao Xi's hand and telling her to take good care of Concubine Li.

, went back disappointed.

Li Mo kept guarding her day and night, and her eyes were swollen to walnuts. Finally, Yao Xi forced her to rest. None of them could understand the pain in their master's heart, they could only watch as her life breath faded away.

Loss, and there is no way around it.

By the second day, Jingsu was getting weaker and weaker. Her face was so thin that almost only bones were left. Her big eyes were still open, but nothing could enter her eyes.

In the small dining room, the food was kept warm for twelve hours. Shang Mo, Jian Yue, and Yao Xi took turns advising her, hoping that she could use some, even if she was willing to drink some water.

Jingsu was still wearing the blood-stained clothes. The blood stains had long since dried, and dark red spots were dotted on her chest. She was as lifeless, dry and dim as her own body.

Yao Xi really had no other choice, so she gritted her teeth and went to Moyang Palace without telling Jingsu.

Moyang Palace was as grand as ever, but the person guarding the door of Chongde Palace was not Man Sheng, but Chang Ying, the deputy general manager. He had his hands folded in his sleeves. After Yao Xi explained his intention, he just said something strange.

: "The Emperor has decreed that no one will be seen today. Aunt Yao Xi please come back!"

Yao Xi had an old grudge with him. Due to the lonely life of an eunuch in the palace, he took a fancy to Yao Xi and put a lot of obstacles on her, both overtly and covertly. He even tried to use his status as the deputy chief of the imperial palace to attack her.

She was unruly, but fortunately the manager Mansheng appeared in time and saved her. Who knew that he was not selfish, and even asked the emperor to betroth Yao Xi to him as a match. Fortunately, the emperor was wise and asked her opinion, and she naturally did not

Yes, the emperor was generous and saved her from this disaster. Chang Ying was demoted to the lower level because of this, but he didn't expect that he would come back just now.

Seeing that it was him, Yao Xi knew something was wrong, but thinking of Jingsu's situation, she still spoke up. She also expected that he would not agree easily, but she didn't expect that he would just bite the emperor's imperial edict and refuse to go in for her.

pass.

She wanted to wait by the side, but after waiting for a long time, she still didn't see any movement inside. Instead, Chang Ying's strange voice sounded in her ears: "I thought the emperor liked you so much that he just sent you to serve others.

, I am still an unfavored concubine, and I will suffer from you in the future."

Yao Xi just stared at the two closed doors, pretending not to hear his words. She thought about whether she would have a chance to break in if she had to force her way in.

Just as he was thinking about it, the door opened, and a man from Yungui in plain clothes came out, with a red face and a proud spring breeze. He told Chang Ying, "The emperor is sleeping, so please keep watch and don't let anyone disturb the emperor."

"

"This slave knows, this slave knows!" Chang Ying nodded and bowed in flattery, then stepped forward and closed the palace door tightly.

The Yungui man nodded with satisfaction, glanced at Yao Xi, and just left.

Yao Xi knew that it would be even more difficult for her to see the emperor. She wanted to make some noise and alert the emperor, but she also thought that since returning to the palace, the emperor had ignored Concubine Li, and she was worried that Concubine Li would be harmed.

Undecided.

The stalemate lasted for more than half an hour. Yao Xi had no choice but to leave first.

On the way back to Furong Palace, passing by Jingui Palace, Shu Guifei's servant Zi Wen called her to her side, pulled her to a corner of the palace wall, looked around warily, and handed her a brown porcelain vase.

"My master heard that Concubine Li is unwell, and this bottle of medicine is very nourishing. He asked me to send it to you. I don't happen to meet my aunt at this time. Please excuse me and go back for a while."

Yao Xi took it and said: "Then I will thank Concubine Shu on behalf of my mother-in-law." As she was about to leave, Ziwen hurriedly grabbed her again and whispered: "My master said it, if Concubine Ruo Li doesn't believe it,

, you can ask the imperial doctor to take a look, this medicine is really excellent."

"Shu Guifei is too worried." Yao Xi followed her words and put the medicine away. Regardless of whether the medicine is good or bad, it will not be used by the empress. However, Shu Guifei's affection is not easy after all.

refuse.

Back at Furong Palace, the first palace was still gloomy. Xiao Luzi was guarding the door with his head hanging down. Jian Yue was sitting on the stone steps in the courtyard, not knowing what he was thinking. Li Mo rubbed his eyes and ran out of the house and hid back.

There was crying in the room.

Yao Xi sighed silently and walked into the house.

There was still a strange dead silence in the bedroom. Concubine Li was lying motionless on the bed, as thin as a paper figure. If you didn't distinguish it carefully, you could hardly see the ups and downs of her body.

Looking at it, she felt uncomfortable in her heart, turned around and rushed out. After much thought, she still came to Moyang Palace, and Chang Ying should stay outside the door. When she saw her walking from a distance, she grinned and said with a sinister smile.

An insidious thing that cannot be revealed.

Yao Xi already had a fight in her heart, so she simply ignored him and shouted while walking forward: "Yao Xi wants to see the emperor. I have something to report about Concubine Li, the slave. I beg the emperor to see the slave."

Chang Ying did not guard against her daring to do this. He was so frightened that he quickly sent someone to stop her, but it was already too late. The two closed doors opened automatically without wind, and the emperor's cold and stern voice came out:

"Come in!"

Yao Xi exhaled, hurriedly shook off the little eunuch who was dragging her, and walked quickly into the Chongde Hall. The emperor seemed to have been woken up from a nap, and was lazily leaning on the royal chair, with a coat wrapped around his body.

Yao Xi used to serve in front of the emperor, so she didn't think there was anything wrong. She just said hello and said hurriedly: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I really had no choice but to disturb the Emperor."

"Tell me, what's wrong with Concubine Li?"

"Back to the emperor, the master has not eaten or drank since he came back from the palace that day. He also vomited blood yesterday and was not allowed to be treated by the imperial doctor. He is getting weaker and weaker."

Chong Mo hit the imperial case with such force that the tea cup above him rattled, "You bastard! Why didn't you come and report to me earlier!"

"Concubine Li does not allow this servant to report this matter to the emperor," Yao Xi kowtowed heavily: "Please have mercy on the emperor and find a way to persuade the concubine. If this continues, I'm afraid it will not be good."

Chong Mo sat up straight, and there were waves of haze in his eyes, Jingsu, are you threatening me with death? If you dare to die, I will cut Guan Liangyu into pieces and bury you with you. I don’t believe it.

, you really don’t care about his life or death.

"Go and tell her that if she wants to die, there will be people to bury her with her!"

Yao Xi didn't understand what she was saying, and her slight hesitation was noticed by Chong Mo, so he said again: "Tell her my original words, and she will understand."
