Huan Chun and others felt nervous, and carefully helped their master through the door. They saw Xing'er kneeling in the courtyard, with Xiang Yue sneering at her in an upright tone. Huan Chun shouted coldly: "What are you doing standing around blindly? Master is back."
Xiangyue hurried over and saw that Huan Chun was so angry that her master's face was smeared with paste. She didn't dare to utter a word, but Huan Chun still scolded Huan Chun and scolded her: "Slaves must abide by their duties. Every one of them must do their duty."
If you have no rules like you, what will Yonghe Palace look like? Just stand under the eaves and reflect on it."
Seeing Xiangyue's depressed expression, Lan Qi became even more annoyed. She waved her hand and said, "Forget it, just do what you have to do and don't make any more noise. I feel very uncomfortable."
Everyone hurriedly gathered Lan Qi back to the dormitory and walked past Xing'er. Lan Qi turned a blind eye and the group was about to pass by, but heard Xing'er cry: "Mother, I don't know what's going on. I won't betray you even if I die."
…”
Lan Qi turned a deaf ear and went straight back to the house. She was pregnant and had a sleepless night. Not to mention anything unhappy, even without these things she was not energetic enough. When she got back to the house, she leaned down and wanted to take a rest, but
I was so upset that I couldn't sleep well at all, and I still kept sulking with my eyes wide open.
Xing'er was still kneeling in the yard, but Lu Zhu came and said to her: "Don't cry so much. The master is worried that you are lost and freezing outside and haven't slept all night. Let her rest now. Do you want to kneel down?"
If someone stops you, don't disturb the master to rest."
The weather in September was not very cold yet, and the sun at noon was a bit scorching. Myolie knelt there straight, with sweat dripping down her face. However, the weather suddenly changed in the afternoon. It was still strong a moment ago.
The sun shines, then the clouds cover and the wind blows fiercely. Lan Qi is awakened by the sound of rain on the ground. She sat sulking like that before, and unconsciously fell asleep because she was too tired. However, when she woke up, she was still tired, with a headache and a lazy body, and she thought
Those things, there is no energy in the face.
Huan Chun brought anti-fetal medicine, but she got tired of it after just two mouthfuls. When she was gargling, she saw Yu Kui and Lv Zhu whispering in front of the door. Lan Qi frowned and looked at them. Huan Chun said to them angrily: "
Why don't you come and lend a hand?"
Everyone knew that Huan Chun had taken some medicine today and came to do things honestly, but Lan Qi asked them: "What are you talking about?"
The two looked at each other, and Yukui said timidly: "Xing'er is still kneeling in the yard. It's raining heavily. If it continues like this, the slaves are afraid that something will happen."
Huan Chun sighed and said to Lan Qi: "Let the slaves send her away. It's already been an embarrassing enough mess. If any more lives are lost, how has our Yonghe Palace ever been so embarrassed?"
Lan Qi sat still, rinsing her mouth and leaning back to rest. She heard Huan Chun going out, but the rain outside was so loud that she didn't even know what they were talking about. Thinking of Xing'er's usual honest and responsible appearance, she really didn't understand.
Why would she do such a thing? She couldn't swallow this breath in her heart. She turned around and told Luzhu: "Hold an umbrella and let me out."
The two of them were startled, but they didn't dare to disobey, and surrounded Lan Qi to come out. However, the rain outside was pouring down like a basin of water, and Lv Zhu finally stopped her and said: "Mother, please let Xing'er come in. You
It's great to go out in the rain like this." After saying that, he turned around and rushed into the rain curtain. Huanchun and Xing'er were still in a stalemate over there. When he saw the scene here, he couldn't help but drag people in one by one.
After being exposed to the sun and then the rain, she had to kneel down for several hours. Lan Qi had never punished anyone like this before. It was not her intention to do this today, but it was also caused by her. Myolie was soaked on the ground.
Her face was pale and the carpet was wet all over. She couldn't bear to see her, so she didn't rush to ask questions and told Huan Chun: "Clean her up first."
Xing'er returned to Lan Qi again. She had changed into clean clothes and was fed two large bowls of ginger soup. Lv Zhu and the others were also bad at cooking the ginger soup without adding more sugar to her. Xing'er's face was red and burning because of the spicy food, but
Compared with the paleness just now, Lan Qi felt more at ease. Seeing her standing with trembling legs again, knowing that her knees hurt from kneeling, she sighed and said, "Sit down and talk. There has never been a rule in Yonghe Palace to torture palace maids."
.”
After saying this, Xing'er knelt down and cried again.
She woke up in the middle of the night last night and found herself next to the emperor. She was so frightened that she lost her mind. She had seen the Holy Emperor several times in Yingtai before. Although she only saw it from a distance, she recognized it clearly, not to mention that in such a magnificent palace,
There was a grown man sleeping next to her. Who else in the Forbidden City besides the emperor? But she couldn't remember why she was here. She only remembered that after coming out of Ningshou Palace, she was hit hard on the back of her neck, and she couldn't remember anything.
.
"If you fainted like a dead person, how could the emperor touch you?" Huan Chun finally couldn't help it, and vented the anger in his stomach. As he spoke, he felt it was too much, but Xing'er lowered her head.
She kept her head and accepted everything. Although she didn't know what happened last night, the emperor did treat her favorably. No matter what, she betrayed Concubine De.
At this time, the little palace maid in front of the door came and said that the Taiyuan Hospital was here to take the pulse of Empress De Concubine. De Concubine was pregnant, and Cining Palace had always ordered her to take care of her body twice a day. Lan Qi asked to come in.
After taking her pulse according to the rules, the imperial doctor said that Concubine De had some qi and blood stasis, and asked the empress to take care of her calmly. Everyone murmured in their hearts and stared at Xing'er angrily.
Seeing this scene, Lan Qi was really angry and funny. Suddenly, she felt excited in her heart and ordered the imperial doctor: "Can you trouble me, sir, to show this palace lady? I don't know what's wrong with her. Please take a look at her before talking."
The imperial doctor took the order and asked Xing'er to sit down and adjust her breathing, then felt her pulse through a silk handkerchief, and asked her to stick out her tongue to see the color of her fur. After saying "I'm sorry", she opened Xing'er's eyelids and looked carefully at both eyes.
Looking at it, I couldn't help but frown.
Seeing that the imperial doctor looked troubled and seemed uncomfortable speaking in public, Huan Chun asked the imperial doctor to lend him a step. It took a long time for Huan Chun to come back. He glanced at Xing'er helplessly and went to his master's side to whisper a few words. Lan Qi felt her heart skip a beat.
He jumped straight up, frowned and asked: "Is this really true?"
Huan Chun nodded, Lan Qi said nothing, but thought in her heart that she had to ask Xuan Ye what it looked like on the dragon bed. After thinking about it, she became very angry, and finally couldn't calm down.
But Xing'er's grievances were finally clear. There was a bruise on the back of her neck. Apparently she was not lying when she said she was attacked. The imperial doctor also confirmed that the girl seemed to have taken a love drug. Her pulse was white and her eyes were filled with blood.
She was in chaos, even though she was soaked by the heavy rain, she still had a burning desire in her body that had not dissipated, and she had to take Qingjun's medicine for a few days to suppress it, otherwise it would be easy for her to get into trouble, and everyone knew what kind of trouble she would get into.
.
In this way, Lan Qi will at least not feel that her good intentions have been betrayed and exploited. At least Myolie has not really betrayed her. It is not too difficult to find out what is going on. Eunuch Li is not on duty these days. Which slaves were in charge of the Qianqing Palace last night? If you catch them and ask them, you will know. But if you make a fuss like that, the emperor will lose face and make it look like he is henpecked. He just wants a palace maid, so does it depend on the face of the Yonghe Palace? ?
After all, it doesn't matter if others suffer grievances and suffer the consequences of being dumb, the most important thing is the emperor's face.
Huan Chun said bitterly: "Don't worry, Madam, there is no need to investigate in a big way. Eunuch Li also has a way to deal with those dirty things. He just doesn't know who is behind it, and he got this medicine for Xing'er to take. In this case, it must be If we want to make you unhappy, if we really want to be unhappy, wouldn’t we be giving them an advantage?"
The master and servant were talking about this, and Xing'er was listening to it and couldn't help but ask: "Slave, what medicine did you take?"
Huan Chun actually laughed out loud, pulled her to his side and whispered a few words, and said apologetically: "I was really angry when I scolded you like that just now. Don't take it to heart."
Xing'er listened in confusion, probably knowing that she had been drugged, but when she heard what Sister Huanchun said, she felt even more sorry for her master, tears came out of her eyes, and Lan Qi said: "You are also the emperor after all. I have no place or status arranged for you now, so please stay in Yonghe Palace for now."
Afterwards, Huan Chun called everyone in Yonghe Palace. Lan Qi asked everyone to treat Xing'er politely and not to let outsiders laugh at the lack of rules in Yonghe Palace. The more people are waiting to see the joke, the more straight their waists should be. However, just as they were trying to get them to clean up the side palace for Xing'er to live in, someone from the Ministry of Internal Affairs came to tell them that the Queen Mother's decree was to give Zhang Jia the promised status and move to Jingyang Palace.
"Live with Sister Rong?" Lan Qi didn't feel bad, but was afraid of causing trouble to Concubine Rong.
But not long after, Concubine Rong came in person in the rain and talked privately with Lan Qi in the room for a long time. When she came out again, she said to Xing'er: "From now on, Zhang agreed. The rules in the palace go back slowly." I’m teaching you, but you have to understand in your heart how all this came about. Empress De Fei doesn’t care about you. It’s her magnanimity. Go kowtow to the empress, and let’s go.”
Lan Qi didn't ask Xing'er to kowtow, but instead asked Huan Chun to give her two pieces of jewelry. He was no longer as resentful as before, but gently told her: "The Queen Mother gave you the title, please take care of the emperor's Face, and even more so, my face. This kind of thing is normal in the palace. I was once a palace maid beside Bu Guiren. I hate you. Don’t you think about yourself? Maybe it’s your blessing, Your Majesty. If I think of you again, you must serve the emperor well, and I will kneel outside in the sun and rain for most of the day, and live a good life in the future for others to see."
Xing'er was already bursting into tears. She looked like she was crying to Lord Bu ten years ago. Lan Qi had mixed feelings in her heart. Instead, she comforted her not to be afraid, saying that Concubine Rong had the best temperament and she would not be afraid if she went to Jingyang Palace. She was wronged because Wan Chang was pregnant, so she could help take care of her in the past.
Not to mention Xing'er's state of mind at the moment, Lan Qi felt that she handled the matter calmly and felt less resentful. She knew that she had reasons to be angry, but she still felt a little uneasy in her heart. Concubine Rong could see through it and just now He said to her: "Our man is the emperor, so we are destined to face these things with a smile. Only if he abandons us, there is no reason for us to abandon him. Who in the palace can be willing to do this? But come on. When you get here, you can't help yourself."
