Chapter 64 Herbs
Su Lijin looked at the queen mother with a smile, and said considerately: "As a queen, my concubine should not only manage the harem, but also take care of the emperor's daily life."

"Naturally, there are special staff to take care of the daily life. If the queen does what the rough envoys do, wouldn't the court and the people laugh at her?"

The queen mother did not back down, and her words were full of criticism: "Ai Jia thinks that the queen should do her own things well first, and it will be good."

Xiao Zhaolin looked at Su Lijin with the same expression on his face, but there was a bit of inquiry in that smile.

In the high position, Xiao Sheng raised his eyebrows, but he thought about Su Lijin's scrambling for the decoction at this time, and his eyes gradually fell on the medicinal herbs.

"What the empress dowager admonished is."

Facing the challenge, Su Lijin didn't show an angry expression, on the contrary, she looked very obedient.

Then, she said: "The concubine is the queen, but she is also a wife. It is very normal for a wife to wash her hands and make soup for her husband. I think you, the queen mother, can understand this."

As she said that, she saluted Xiao Shengyao with great demeanor: "After the emperor was poisoned, the concubine was very worried. If the concubine is not allowed to do something for the emperor, the concubine will really have trouble sleeping and eating. , I just feel that I haven’t done what a wife should do for her husband.”

What she said was reasonable, and her attitude of doing something for the emperor wholeheartedly seemed very sincere.

"Hmph, queen, you are such a good wife."

The empress dowager was repeatedly harassed, and she said in a strange way: "Why didn't the Ai family see how virtuous you were before the empress? Also, should the empress respect the elders?"

"That's right, what the queen mother said is true."

Concubine Shu, who was standing beside her, suddenly spoke. She was standing beside the queen mother, she had always flattered the queen mother, and she used to smear Su Lijin in all kinds of ways on weekdays. proud.

Concubine Shu took a step forward, and took a quick look at Xiao Zhaolin, who gave her a meaningful look back.

"The empress dowager is the elder of the empress. If the elders say it, will the empress dowager also disobey?"

She looked at Su Lijin provocatively: "The empress dowager is already upset by you, if you are filial, you shouldn't continue talking."

Su Lijin thought she was a big pot, and she was directly blamed for being unfilial!

This Wei Shu is really going where there is excitement, and where there is trouble, she will be pinned on her!
Xiao Shengyun looked at his concubine, but did not speak.

Gouging out Su Li's eyes, Concubine Shu said courteously: "It's up to me to decoct the medicine. The empress has a lot of things to do every day, so she must not have too much energy to spend on decocting the medicine. Why don't I do it? I will definitely take care of it all the way." The emperor guards the medicine stove."

The queen mother nodded in satisfaction after hearing the words: "I think it's good for Concubine Shu to cook the medicine. She is always careful and will definitely cook this precious medicine well."

Xiao Zhaolin also nodded slightly, but looked at Su Lijin.

Looking at Concubine Shu's face, Su Li raised her eyebrows: "Are you here to make medicine?"

Concubine Shu ignored her, but stepped forward to look at Xiao Shengxun and said, "For the sake of the emperor, the concubine is willing to do anything, the emperor must understand the concubine's love, and will agree to the concubine, right?"

This confession was very straightforward, coupled with Concubine Shu's expression, it successfully aroused the goosebumps on Xiao Shengyun's body.

He really had a chill in his heart, but he couldn't attack it, it was really difficult.

Su Lijin wanted to laugh, and the corners of her mouth curled up. Seeing that Xiao Shengyun was disgusted as the emperor, and he couldn't get emotional, it was really funny.

As if feeling Su Lijin's gaze, Xiao Shengyun glanced over, Su Lijin smiled at him and raised her eyebrows, looking full of excitement.

Xiao Shengyun's face darkened a bit, and he turned to look at Concubine Shu. It was really inappropriate for him not to say anything: "This matter..."

"Let Concubine Shu do it, the emperor doesn't have to worry about it." The queen mother said directly.

Xiao Shengyun nodded: "Alright then, Concubine Shu will make medicine for me."

There is no way around this result, after all, the emperor still has to listen to what the queen mother said.

Now, Su Lijin didn't want to really tear her face apart.

"Since you can't decoct medicine..."

She looked at the herb thoughtfully.

Xiao Zhaolin, who had not spoken much all this time, cupped his hands and stepped forward at this moment: "Your Majesty, I've taken care of finding medicinal herbs. This long-distance journey is really a bit tiring. I want to take a leave of absence for three days. I would like to ask the emperor for permission." .”

Xiao Zhaolin is going to ask for leave and not go to court for three days?
Su Lijin frowned slightly, Xiao Zhaolin asked for leave, it shouldn't be that simple, right?

Xiao Shengyun looked at Xiao Zhaolin slightly, but the queen mother took the lead and said: "The Ai family can also see that he is tired and has lost a lot of weight. Go back for a few days and take a good rest. There is no need to ask Anhe to go to court."

What she said was actually agreed directly past the emperor.

This is absolutely not allowed in the strict rules of the palace.

Even if she is the empress dowager, she still has the imperial power first and cannot surpass it.

Xiao Shengyun's face was slightly gloomy, and he glanced at the queen mother, a faint gloom appeared in his deep eyes, but he quickly suppressed it.

For an emperor, this situation was nothing less than humiliation. Seeing it, Su Lijin felt a little pitiful for Xiao Shengyun.

Concubine Shu picked up the medicine box at the side, and said with a smile: "It takes a long time to decoct the medicine, so the concubine will go to decoct the medicine first."

Xiao Shengyun nodded, and the queen mother had no objections.

Xiao Zhaolin also nodded slightly, looking at Concubine Shu with a gentle smile.

When she walked past Su Lijin, Concubine Shu snorted triumphantly, and mocked in a low voice: "If you want to be courteous, you have to see if you can compete."

After speaking, he turned his head and walked out.

But just as she took two steps, her body was suddenly hit by a strong force, and she fell heavily to the ground. The medicine box in her hand also fell to the ground, and the herbs were spilled out.

At the same time, something quickly mixed in with the herbs.

Everything happened without anyone noticing.

"You!" Concubine Shu stood up with her waist supported, tidied up the messy dress on her body, and pointed to the side aggressively: "You hit me on purpose!"

Su Li spread out her hands: "Which eye did you see?"

Of course, this was indeed her intention.

Not only did she hit Concubine Shu on purpose, she also quietly put in the medicine to neutralize the poison of the herb, so that even if the medicine was decocted, there was no need to be afraid of being poisoned after drinking it.

Concubine Shu did not see it, but she clearly fell by Su Lijin just now, who else could it be if it wasn't Su Lijin?

She was in a hurry, and said in a strange way: "The one you touched is the emperor's life-saving herb, and you will be beheaded!"

"What are you, you, you! I am the empress, you are just a concubine, there is no difference in dignity, and if you commit any crimes like this, I will be slapped."

Su Lijin was not frightened at all, and the smile on her face remained unchanged: "Does this palace seem like someone who can joke? A majestic concubine, so ignorant of etiquette, do you know my mistake?"

These words directly made Concubine Shu's face turn blue and purple, she was extremely unhappy but there was nothing she could do.

She wanted to be a queen with all her heart, but she couldn't get what she wished patiently. She was always overwhelmed by concubine Su Li, which made her face turn blue and white.
