After the divorce, I became the Lord of the Six Houses

Chapter 41

The night in early summer was still chilly, Su Jingyan really couldn't fall asleep, closing her eyes was such an embarrassing thing, she simply got up and read the script, read it at night under the lamp, and fell asleep while reading it.

In the palace, Xiao Yi also had a rest just now, when he heard a noise coming from outside, Xiao Yi asked Fang Yuan, "What's that sound outside?"

Fang Yuan came forward and reported: "It was He Xiurong who was clamoring to see you, but you have given orders not to allow concubines to ask to see you, and I have sent her away."

Xiao Yi frowned slightly, listening to the anxious woman's voice outside, "Let her in!"

Fang Yuan's eyes lit up, His Majesty was open to seeing his concubines, He Lianqiao was the most beautiful among these beautiful ladies, and it was reasonable.

Xiao Yi recalled the scene where he and Su Jingyan ran into He Lianqiao in Huguo Temple that day, and saw that Su Jingyan admired He Lianqiao very much.

And Su Jingyan proposed He Lianqiao as queen from the very beginning, Xiao Yi believed in Su Jingyan's vision.

It must be something urgent that He Lianqiao didn't come to his bedroom late at night to make trouble outside his palace in order to fight for favor.

When He Lianqiao was brought inside, she knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, a few days before my concubine entered the palace, the children in the Baishan Hall suffered from a strange disease, most of which were damp-heat fever. In severe cases, they fell into coma and convulsions. Foaming at the mouth, convulsing endlessly.

The concubine looked through the medical books and found that the ancestral prescriptions could cure them, and the medicine of bezoar was very rare among them.

Suddenly, there was no bezoar in the medical clinics in Luoyang City. I heard from my grandfather that there were some bezoars in the palace, but the medicine in the palace could not be used.

The concubine ordered someone to go to the surrounding cities to buy it, and the person sent a letter saying that he had already bought it, and the concubine should have arrived today according to the time.

But the concubine asked about the medicine in the Baishan Hall and found out that the medicine could not enter because the city gate was blocked.

If the medicine is delayed for another two days, I'm afraid that the lives of those children will not be able to wait. "

Xiao Yi said: "I will give you a jade pendant, and you ask someone to go to the gate of the city to deliver an order to let those who buy medicine into the city."

He Lianqiao asked: "Can the concubine go pick him up by herself? After all, bezoar is precious, and the concubine is afraid that it will be difficult for the concubine to handle things. Also, the strange disease in the Baishan hall really worries the concubine."

Xiao Yi didn't care much about these concubines, so he went out with He Lianqiao, as long as she didn't reveal her identity.

He Lianqiao got the jade pendant, so she disguised herself and left the palace late at night.

The emperor and queen's wedding was just around the corner, and there were more guards patrolling the streets than usual.

When He Lianqiao walked to the gate of the city, she met Su Jian and Su Liu, and she wrapped her veil tightly again and again.

Xiao Yi is about to be in charge, and Su Liu can't continue to be a companion. According to Zu Yin, he will enter Jinwu Guard or the Yamen of Dali Temple.

His Majesty's wedding is the most important thing, so Su Liu also came to patrol with his third uncle, to reward the generals guarding the city gate, and to get acquainted with his future work.

He Lianqiao stepped forward to show her the jade card Xiao Yi gave her and said, "Your Majesty has ordered me to go out of the city to pick up one person into Luoyang."

The city guard didn't show respect when he saw the jade plaque, instead he looked at Su Jian and said, "Third Lord, this..."

He Lianqiao was not surprised by this. Everyone said that His Majesty is a puppet emperor. After all, His Majesty has not yet ruled in person, and if the Su family wants to have another queen, it is natural that the Su family will be the first.

Su Liu begged He Lianqiao for a jade token, and after a closer look, it really belonged to His Majesty, "Third Uncle, this jade token belongs to His Majesty, I will go out with the girl to pick him up!"

The outside of the city is full of people who want to enter Luoyang, some people from the surrounding area want to come in to enjoy the excitement, and some are outside traders who come to do business taking advantage of the emperor's wedding...

But no matter what, Luoyang is only closed for three days.

The officials in the city did not dare to say that no one with ulterior motives tried to enter, so they simply did not allow anyone to enter.

The moon at the end of the month is just a thin crescent, shining on the stars.

He Lianqiao lit up the lantern, and quickly found the waiter in the crowd. There were two other people beside him, and a woman was lying on the wooden cart, crying out for pain.

He Lianqiao asked, "Chuan Bai, what's the matter?"

Chuan Bai said repeatedly: "Girl, this lady is going to give birth."

He Lianqiao took a look forward with a lantern in her hand, and took two steps back in fright, unexpectedly falling into Su Liu's arms.

Su Liu's ears turned red, and said, "Miss, be careful."

Su Liu looked over and saw the woman on the wooden cart with a big belly, but there was no good skin all over her body, her whole face was festered, only a pair of eyes were exposed.

Su Liu was very familiar with these eyes, but he couldn't remember when he saw them.

Chuan Bai said: "This madam has been poisoned, her face is festered and her throat is hoarse. I don't know why there is some deep hatred. Fortunately, the child in her womb is still alive. It's just that her fetal position is not correct, and I may prevent dystocia.

The woman Wen in the countryside did not dare to deliver the baby, so the doctor in the village asked her to come to Luoyang Baishantang for medical treatment, but it happened that the gate of Luoyang city was closed. "

He Lianqiao said decisively: "It's important to save her, send her to Baishan Hall."

Su Liu said: "This girl, you just said that you only brought one person into the city, not to mention that you have to check the road card when entering the city. If you don't have a road card, you can't enter the palace at will."

He Lianqiao snorted coldly: "I've always heard that the Su family puts benevolence and righteousness first, Mr. Su, didn't you see that this lady is about to give birth? Are you willing to let them enter the city only if you make a mess?"

Su Liu scratched his head, and said: "They can go in, but you have to tell your identity, if something goes wrong, I can't spare you!"

He Lianqiao took off her veil and asked Su Liu, "I'll take care of what happened!"

Su Liu was so surprised, he said repeatedly: "Yes, Empress Xiurong."

After He Lianqiao put on the veil, she led Chuanbai and the woman who was about to give birth into the city gate together with the young man who sent her here.

When entering the city gate, Su Jian came to see the woman on the cart and said, "Liu'er, didn't you agree to be alone? Why are there two people? How can this person be so ugly?"

When the woman on the cart saw Su Jian, her eyes widened, and she raised her arms with all her strength, trying to shout something, but she couldn't utter a single word.

He Lianqiao comforted softly: "Don't worry, I will guarantee that you and your child will be safe. I am the best doctor in Luoyang City."

He Lianqiao turned to Su Jian and said, "Third Master Su, I can guarantee them. If something goes wrong, the He family is willing to exchange their lives for it!"

Su Liu approached Su Jian's ear and told him about He Lianqiao's identity.

Su Jian respectfully said, "Go in."

When the cart passed by Su Jian, the woman lying on top went to hold Su Jian's robe corner, but Su Jian dodged in disgust, and said disgustedly:
"Ms. Xiurong, don't be too kind to save some beggars, so as not to be infected with some diseases."

When the woman on the cart heard about this person, she silently lowered her hand.

Tears ran across her festered face.

……

Early the next morning, the palace was full of excitement.

Everyone has heard that He Xiurong went to His Majesty's bedroom to make trouble last night, but he stayed in His Majesty's bedroom for nearly two quarters of an hour before coming out, and was favored by His Majesty.

His Majesty was fortunate enough to meet such a beauty as He Xiurong, it only took two quarters of an hour, which is a bit short, but she was the only one among the beautiful women.

Zhong Yu couldn't help being sad when he heard that His Majesty had met He Xiurong.

Among the Su family, Mrs. Su and Xie Yiyi also heard the news early in the morning, but they didn't know how to tell Su Jingyan.
