Yin Reng, who was sitting on her left, couldn't help but frown, wondering why this was so unclear. What does "little brother is bad" mean?
"If my little brother is not well, he should go to the doctor in charge of the hospital. Why do he come to see his aunt?"
"Is the palace attendant from Chengqian Palace still outside the palace? If so, call her over."
Qingyan felt that most of her good appetite had been destroyed in an instant. She took the big spoon out of the small hot pot and put it back on the white porcelain plate. She frowned and said to Bai Lu.
Bai Lu opened her mouth and paused for a moment, as if she wanted to say something, then swallowed her words, nodded quickly, and turned around to call someone.
After Bai Lu left, Qingyan couldn't help curling her fingers in her right hand on the table, rubbing the soft palm with her fingertips, thinking secretly in her heart.
In the past two years, the palace has been much more stable than in the previous years. Under normal circumstances, the lower-ranking concubines in the palace only need the chief empress in their palace to be in charge when giving birth, and the other concubines in other palaces are
The empress and the concubines did not have to sit outside their delivery room and wait, so she did not know that Tong Guiren gave birth today, but she was confused that in the past, the children in the palace who were born weak would not
In a small number, these princes and princesses can barely call it "not good", but the doctors waiting outside the delivery room are not standing there stupidly, seeing the child
If we have a problem, we will do our best to save him immediately. But what is wrong with the little brother who was just born in Chengqian Palace? He actually asked Concubine Tong to say that she couldn't handle it and had to call her to come over?
Qingyan couldn't figure out the reason behind this, she frowned, and the originally lively atmosphere at the dinner table suddenly dropped.
Xiaosi, who was sitting next to the imperial concubine, turned to look at his mother and then at the prince's brother across from him. Seeing that both of them looked bad, he also put the small silver spoon back in his hand with a click.
He poured it into his own small white porcelain bowl and pursed his thin lips tightly.
After a while, Bai Lu hurriedly walked over with a little palace maid who looked a little timid and could not stop trembling: "Empress, someone has brought her here."
As soon as she finished speaking, the older one and the younger one all looked at the strange little palace maid who came to the dining table and bent down to salute.
"My maid, my maid would like to pay my respects to the noble concubine, and please give my regards to His Highness the Crown Prince."
Qingyan looked at the little palace maid in front of her who was trembling all over, stumbling when speaking, and turning pale. Her heart became even more blocked. Those who can serve in Chengqian Palace must not have a stuttering problem, so this little palace maid doesn't know.
Was it because he was frightened or because he was frozen like this on the way here?
"Don't be so secretive. Tell me clearly as soon as possible. What exactly happened in your Chengqian Palace?"
Qingyan stared at the little palace maid with burning eyes and said in a cold tone.
The already nervous little palace maid suddenly heard Concubine Jing's angry shouting, and the tight string in her mind suddenly broke. Then her legs went weak and she knelt on the ground.
He cried incoherently and said:
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I beg you to go to our Chengqian Palace and have a look. Tong Guiren, she, she, she..."
"What's wrong with her?"
Qingyan looked at the little palace maid "her" for a long time and couldn't say what she wanted to say next, so she asked again anxiously.
Unexpectedly, the little palace maid who was kneeling on the ground tilted her body and fell to the ground with her eyes closed tightly.
"Auntie, here!"
The little palace maid's outstretched arm happened to rest next to the leg of Yinreng's chair, and almost hit the little prince's apricot-yellow deerskin boots embroidered with black tiger stripes. She was so frightened that Yinreng jumped down from the chair.
She quickly ran to Qingyan's side, clutching her aunt's clothes tightly and looking at the person lying on the ground.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid!"
Qingyan also hurriedly stopped her little nephew behind her. Xiaosi's eyes widened and she slid down from the high chair, firmly grasping the other side of E Niang's clothes and not letting go.
Zhang Tianxi, who was standing outside the palace, heard the commotion inside and quickly crossed the threshold and ran in. When he saw the little palace maid lying on the carpet, his pupils shrank and he immediately stepped forward and pressed her shoulders, turning her body over.
Come over, then stretch out your right hand and lift your curved index finger to touch under the tip of her nose, feeling the warmth of her nose.
After taking a breath, she opened her eyelids and took a closer look. Then she breathed a sigh of relief, raised her head and said to Concubine Jing:
"Mother, it's okay, it's okay. This person was just too frightened and fainted."
"Then take her to the corner room where the palace maid lives first, and let her go back when she wakes up."
Qingyan held her forehead against her headache, feeling a sense of irritability like "when people sit at home, things come from the sky", she waved her hand and said to Zhang Tianxi.
Zhang Tianxi nodded and immediately carried the little palace maid out. When Bai Lu saw her master's appearance, she quietly returned to the inner room to get something.
"Eniang."
Xiao Si raised her head and looked at the imperial concubine longingly. Qingyan raised her hand and rubbed her son's curly hair and said softly:
"Xiao Si, you and the prince brother stay here and eat. I will go to Chengqian Palace to see what happened to your little brother."
He usually didn't deal with her, but the person who was dirty was his eldest cousin Concubine Tong, not his second cousin Tong Guiren. When he was four years old, his second cousin even specially picked a piece of soft and breathable fabric and made him a small dress with fine stitching.
As a congratulatory gift, regardless of whether she wants to take care of this matter or not, Concubine Tong has now sent someone to Chuxiu Palace to report it. She has to go to Chengqian Palace for both business and private purposes.
At this time, Bai Lu also walked out of the inner room holding a thick orange-red wind-pressing cloak embroidered with large peony flowers.
Qingyan reached out and took the cloak and put it on her body. She looked at the two children standing side by side looking at her with worry in their eyes. She said with a bit of laughter and tears:
"The glutinous rice balls must have been cooked. Bai Lu, please stay here and take care of them. Don't let them get burned by the hot pot. I'll take Xiao Xizi to the east to have a look."
"Okay, don't worry, Master. Please be careful on slippery roads in snowy weather."
Bai Lu handed another hand muff made of mink fur to Qingyan with concern in her eyes.
Qingyan patted Bai Lu's arm without saying a word and was about to leave. Yinreng remembered He Zhuer and said hurriedly:
"Auntie, please call He Zhu'er and come over together."
Qingyan was stunned for a moment before realizing the intention of the young prince. He Zhuer can now be said to be from both the Qianqing Palace and the East Palace. If there is really some conspiracy waiting for her in the Chengqian Palace, then He Zhuer The son was the third party's witness. It must be said that the little prince's brain seemed to have been stimulated to develop rapidly since the forehead injury. He became smarter and smarter. He turned around and said to them with a smile:
"Okay, I understand. Baocheng, you and Xiaosi must obey Bai Lu and stop running around. Eat this pot of glutinous rice balls quickly, otherwise it will be overcooked."
Seeing the two children nodding in agreement, Qingyan walked out of the palace and called Zhang Tianxi and He Zhuer to rush towards Chengqian Palace along the east-west palace road.
"Brother Si, this is plum jam flavor."
Bai Lu stood in front of the dining table, holding the wooden handle of a large spoon. She leaned forward and scooped out a few round small glutinous rice balls from the boiling small hot pot. Through the thin white skin, she could see the slightly dark purple filling inside. I knew it was jam-flavored, so I easily put it into Xiaosi's small white porcelain bowl.
Then he scooped out a few black sesame fillings and put them into Yinreng's bowl and smiled at them both:
"Your Highness, Fourth Brother, hurry up and eat it while it's hot."
But after Qingyan left, the two children no longer had much appetite.
Xiao Si held the small silver spoon in his hand and poked the outer shell of a glutinous rice ball. He saw purple, red, and black plum jam flowing out from the breach like quicksand. He squeezed the small silver spoon tightly, raised his head and looked at it. Yin Reng, who was sitting opposite, whispered:
"Brother Prince, I actually had a dream last night."
"What did Xiaosi dream about?"
Yinren also poked the small glutinous rice balls in his bowl and saw that the black sesame seeds flowing out had muddied the noodle soup. He simply put down the spoon in his hand and pushed the small bowl forward to stop eating.
Xiaosi bit her lower lip tightly, tried hard to recall the hazy dream, then closed her eyes and cried:
"I dreamed that a little baby whose face I couldn't see clearly was holding my thigh and calling me my fourth brother. I couldn't pull my leg out no matter what. He cried so loudly, and sometimes he said he had no fingers, and sometimes he said he had no fingers. My hand hurt so much that it woke me up.
, Wuwuwuwuwu, it’s so scary.”
Xiao Si suddenly sat on a high chair, closed his eyes and cried loudly, which frightened both Yin Reng and Bai Lu.
Bai Lu quickly put down the big spoon in her hand and hugged Brother Si into her arms, patting his back gently to comfort him.
Yin Reng was also shocked. Thinking of Xiao Si's current age, he thought that he must have had a nightmare last night and forgot about it immediately after waking up. Then he was stimulated to recall it because of the report from the little palace maid of Chengqian Palace.
Seeing that Xiao Si couldn't stop crying, Yin Reng also stood up from the chair, raised his head slightly and said to Bai Lu:
"Aunt Bai, please take us both to Qianqing Palace to find Khan Ama now."
"But Your Highness." Bai Lu was a little embarrassed. After all, the master had told the two children to wait here, and it was so cold outside. What would happen if the little prince and fourth brother accidentally caught the cold?
"Aunt Bai, I understand what you mean, but after all, the little brother is Khan Amma's son. If something is really wrong with him, Khan Amma should go and see him. Auntie can't be there alone. "
The little prince said with a serious face behind his hands.
"Uh-huh, I'm going to thank you Ama for the fourth time!"
When Xiao Si heard what the prince's brother said, he quickly raised his sleeves to wipe away the tears on his face, looked at Bai Lu with red eyes, and said to her in a hoarse voice.
"Okay, I will wrap you two in thick clothes, and we will go to Qianqing Palace right away."
If there weren't two little masters here, Bai Lu would have gone there with Concubine Jing. Now she is waiting here alone and doesn't trust her master. She simply gritted her teeth and made up her mind to disobey her master this time. Quickly He put out the charcoal fire in the two small hot pots on the table, and then took Yin Reng and Xiao Si to the inner room to put on thick clothes.
At the same time, Concubine Tong was sitting in the side hall of the backyard of Chengqian Palace, with sweat breaking out on her forehead. Her face turned pale and she held Nanny Tong's hand tightly. Her tone was broken and she whispered tremblingly:
"Mommy, is it because we let her eat the birth secret pill from the previous dynasty that she gave birth to that, that monster?"
"Your Majesty, be careful what you say!"
Nanny Tong, who was also anxious in her heart, heard the frightened Concubine Tong say these words. She was so angry that she, the stupid and brainless master of hers, reached out and covered her mouth.
Although she was murmuring in her heart because of this crime, she should never say such things out loud!
, Wuwuwuwuwu, it’s so scary.”
Xiao Si suddenly sat on a high chair, closed his eyes and cried loudly, which frightened both Yin Reng and Bai Lu.
Bai Lu quickly put down the big spoon in her hand and hugged Brother Si into her arms, patting his back gently to comfort him.
Yin Reng was also shocked. Thinking of Xiao Si's current age, he thought that he must have had a nightmare last night and forgot about it immediately after waking up. Then he was stimulated to recall it because of the report from the little palace maid of Chengqian Palace.
