Spring apricots around the palace wall

Chapter 59 Please enter the urn (two)

Ruan Wei smiled sweetly, her voice like a silver bell: "With your face like this, Ben Gong almost couldn't recognize who it was."

Being beaten is a shameful thing in the end, and the face is what women care about most, Xia Qiuling will inevitably feel ashamed, and her head is lowered: "I made the empress laugh, and the concubine offended the queen from nowhere, and was punished. Perhaps the concubine is not worthy of the emperor's favor."

This tone of voice was aggrieved, for fear that others would not be able to hear that she was being favored and envied, and that she was beaten by the queen for no reason.

Concubine Ruan said with a smile: "You are too much, how can you not be worthy."

The emperor is not a fragrant pastry, and it is not a good thing. What is worthy of being favored by him.That is to say, the dancer's background is low, so she has such low self-esteem.

When Xia Qiuling heard her kind tone, she knew that she was a good talker, and said: "Concubine has heard of Niangniang's medical skills, has a benevolent heart, and has a beautiful face, which has been admired by concubine for a long time."

Ruan Wei said modestly: "It's all rumors."

The medical skills are good, but they are mediocre. They are not as magical as the people say, and they happen to be able to cure a plague and see some common diseases. Who makes the building a place where plague often occurs?
Xia Qiuling couldn't squat anymore. She was punished by the queen to kneel dozens of times. Her legs and knees were already injured by such tossing. At this moment, Ruan Wei didn't speak to let her get up, how could she bear it.

Xia Qiuling wondered if this Concubine Ruan was deliberately trying to get her down, or if Concubine Ruan was jealous of her being favored.

She had already put on a low profile, but when she was treated like this, Xia Qiuling felt a little uncomfortable.

Some words should remind this Concubine Ruan.

"It is also thanks to the emperor who went to Fengyi Palace to rescue the concubine. The emperor reprimanded the empress, and personally arranged for the concubine to come to Zhaochun Palace to live by your side, otherwise the concubine would be much less fortunate today."

The words fully implied Ruan Wei, how important she is to the emperor.The subtext is, don't target her if you are interested.

Ruan Wei narrowed her eyes: "The emperor scolded the queen for you?"

Xia Qiuling twisted and said: "The emperor is so partial to the concubine, and the concubine is uneasy."

You should be frightened, little thing, I really don't know what to do with you.

Ruan Wei thought so, smiled and helped her up, and said kindly: "You came to Zhaochun Palace, and this palace will protect you. Don't worry, with this palace, this palace will treat you as a sister. ."

Just as she got up and let her sit on a chair, they shouted "the emperor is here" from outside.

Xuan Wei went straight to Xia Qiuling, hurriedly picked up her face, and shouted: "Celebrate the imperial physician!"

The palace servants quickly followed suit.

Xuan Wei stared at her face, holding a rare treasure, feeling distressed and nervous.

Xia Qiuling said with tears in her eyes: "Your Majesty, if my face is ruined..."

"No," Xuan Wei said firmly, "the face will be fine."

Ruan Wei stood aside, thinking to herself, she was just beaten and swollen, and she was not injured.
-
Xuan Wei watched Imperial Doctor Fang give Xia Qiuling medicine, and he was relieved when he got the answer that his face would not be destroyed.

Xia Qiuling said obediently: "Your Majesty, don't blame the Empress, it's me being clumsy, and I have annoyed the Empress somewhere."

Tears fell as she spoke.

Xuan Wei watched her teardrops run across her face, and became impatient, "You just got the medicine, don't cry anymore."

Xia Qiuling quickly held back her tears, and her speech was not very smooth, "I just, I just want the emperor not to anger the empress."

Xuan Wei turned his eyes and asked Ruan Wei, "Is the side hall cleaned up?"

Ruan Wei said: "Xia Guiren came suddenly, and it should be almost cleaned up by now."

"Then go lie down."

Xuan Wei pondered that as long as she lay down, even if she shed tears, it would flow to the side, and she would not lose the medicine, and her face would grow back sooner.

Xia Qiuling lay on the bed in the side hall, and said the words again: "Your Majesty, the maiden may be having some troubles these days, so she will take my breath away. The emperor should not blame the empress madam."

Xuan Wei stared at her face and said casually, "I won't blame the queen."

This was obviously not the answer Xia Qiuling wanted, and she added, "Perhaps the concubine's face made the queen angry."

Xuan Wei immediately denied her words: "Don't think nonsense, the queen is not such a stingy person."

"Then maybe it's because these emperors dote on concubines too much, and the concubine is not happy?" Xia Qiuling said coquettishly.

Xuan Wei's expression froze.

He was just thinking about why the queen targeted Xia Qiuling, and he thought about many reasons, but he never thought about it here.

Xia Qiuling saw that he was lost in thought, and slid his hand to hook his sleeve: "Tonight, the emperor will be wronged to live in this side hall."

Xuan Wei looked at her tragic and unbeautiful face, unable to lift the slightest interest, smiled warmly at her, and said, "You take a good rest, I will go to Concubine Ruan tonight."

Before he left, he suddenly remembered something and reminded Xia Qiuling: "You get on better with Concubine Ruan. If the queen insists on touching you, I can't do anything about it. It is estimated that Concubine Ruan can protect you under the queen's hands."

Xia Qiuling was at a loss.

The emperor said he can't do anything?Then Concubine Ruan can protect her because of Concubine Ruan, doesn't Concubine Ruan's glory depend on the grace of the emperor?What's the point of this? -
Xia Qiuling only had a face injury, but not a broken leg. This was not the time when she lived in the Taiji Palace. It was logical that she had to follow Concubine Ruan to Fengyi Palace early in the morning to greet her.

She fiddled for a long time and couldn't do her makeup well.

Ruan Wei condescended to sit in the side hall and wait patiently. Seeing her ink marks, she couldn't help asking, "Are you afraid to go?"

Xia Qiuling was so aggrieved that water dripped from her eyes: "Niangniang, the queen's posture that day was to kill me."

"You'd better go." Ruan Wei said, "With the emperor protecting you, what are you afraid of?"

Xia Qiuling is still awkward: "The emperor has not yet entered the court."

Ruan Wei said "Oh": "Then the palace has passed." Then she walked out.

And so she went.

Xia Qiuling stared blankly at her leaving, unable to respond for a moment.

Xiaoli sighed: "Little Master, do you want Empress Ruan to help you? But if you don't say anything, how can Concubine Ruan treat you as her own."

Xia Qiuling did not have a maid, and in the Tai Chi Palace, the people around the emperor were serving her. When she got here, the empress did not order her to be assigned a maid, but Ruan Wei assigned Xiao Li and Xiao Ping to take care of her.

The words are reasonable, but how can Xia Qiuling take out anything to "express"?

Xiaoli said sympathetically: "Little Master, you have reached this point, don't think too much, go out for a walk and relax."

I've been very bored in the house all the time, my mind is about to explode with worry, it's better to go out for a walk and get some sunshine.

Xia Qiuling put on a veil and took a good look around the Zhaochun Palace.

According to rumors, the Zhaochun Palace is the most luxurious residence of the empress, and it is not inferior to the Queen's Fengyi Palace.

Xiao Li and Xiao Ping supported Xia Qiuling from left to right and walked around the lotus pond in Zhaochun Palace with her.
