happy match

Both Ye Qinglan and Zhang Yue were smart people with raised eyebrows and open eyes, so they naturally didn't ask questions, so they answered with a smile.

Fengyi Hall is the bedroom of Empress Gu. Apart from the main hall and the side halls, there are at least dozens of dormitories that can be lived in.

Ye Qinglan and Zhang Yue went to resettle along with the daughter-in-law officer.The female officer specially arranged adjacent dormitories for the two of them, so it is very convenient for them to talk with each other every day.Seeing that both of them brought only two maidservants into the palace, the Yue Nvguan appointed several maidservants to serve them.

This series of arrangements was well-organized, and the ladies in the court respectfully listened to the orders of Mrs. Yue, which showed how the status of Mrs. Yue in Fengyi Hall was.

After the arrangement was settled, Officer Yue wentssiping with the two of them for a while before resigning.

Ye Qinglan and Zhang Yue breathed a sigh of relief almost at the same time, then looked at each other and smiled.The two were originally cousins, and now they have become sisters-in-law. Although they don't have much contact with each other, they still have some affection.Now they enter the palace together to accompany Queen Gu, and in the days to come, they must go in and out together to take care of each other.There is a tacit understanding between the eyes.

Zhang Yue probed with a smile: "Sister-in-law, the Queen's condition is getting worse, why did you suddenly call the two of us into the palace at this time?"

Ye Qinglan's eyes flickered slightly, and she replied vaguely: "I don't know much about this either. However, I reckoned that the empress is sick and lonely, so I called the two of us into the palace to chat with her to relieve boredom."

Zhang Yue thought for a while and smiled: "What you said is reasonable. Maybe most of the empress's illness is caused by depression. If someone can talk with you to relieve boredom, maybe the illness can be cured faster. "

Ye Qinglan smiled slightly: "You're right. Maybe the empress will get better soon."

A flash of surprise flashed in Zhang Yue's eyes, and she nodded with a smile.

They are all smart people, some things need not be said clearly, only a few vague and implicit hints, Zhang Yue vaguely guessed the truth about entering the palace.I don't need to elaborate on the surprise in my heart, I just feel that the woman with a gentle smile in front of me has suddenly become a bit mysterious.

After chatting for a while, the two went back to their houses to have a rest.

The sky gradually darkened, and soon it was Youshi.Empress Gu finally ordered the maids to summon Ye Qinglan and Zhang Yue to speak.

In the past, summoning her natal family was not in the magnificent main hall.It is in the spacious and tidy side hall.This time, probably in consideration of calling the two of them to accompany her frequently in the future, Empress Gu simply met the two of them in the ear room of her daily life.

It was the hottest month at this time, and even in the evening, the air was a bit dry and hot.However, as soon as you enter the ear room.It was a burst of cold air rushing towards the face, which lifted people's spirits.

Two basins of ice were placed in the ear room, and a palace lady stood beside the basin, fanning them gently with a big fan, and that was how the refreshing cool breeze came.Although it is worse than the air conditioners of later generations, it can be used in such a hot season.It is definitely a luxury to have such an enjoyment.

Empress Gu had obviously done her makeup.She also applied a little makeup, but her complexion was not good, and her cheeks became thinner.The dress she was wearing also looked loose.

"I've met the empress!" Ye Qinglan and Zhang Yue bowed together.

Empress Gu has been ill for a long time, and her energy is far worse than before, and she can no longer put on the airs of a high-ranking empress. She said with a faint smile: "Okay, there is no need for so many courtesy. We will meet every day in the future. There is no need to be too particular about these trivial etiquette. In private Just call me auntie."

Zhang Yue was stunned, but Ye Qinglan responded with a smile: "Since that's the case, my niece and daughter-in-law should be respectful rather than obedient." The attitude was natural, showing a little intimacy.With just such a simple sentence, the relationship between the two parties immediately became closer, and the atmosphere became harmonious.

Zhang Yue couldn't help but glanced at Ye Qinglan, secretly admiring.He is obviously two years younger than himself, but he is more skillful and sophisticated in dealing with it than himself...

There was a smile in Queen Gu's eyes, and she kindly called the two to sit beside her.Then he casually asked about the daily life of the two of them in Dingguo Gongfu.

Zhang Yue is two years older, but when it comes to ranking, it is Ye Qinglan who takes the lead.Ye Qinglan could naturally answer such questions first.However, Ye Qinglan didn't speak, just looked at Zhang Yue with a smile.

Zhang Yue smiled and opened her mouth first: "My aunt takes care of the trivial matters in the house. My niece and daughter-in-law only need to control the servants in Yuxuan on weekdays. She has a lot of free time, so she often goes to Shunyi Hall to accompany her. Grandmother talks..."

In fact, it really doesn't matter who speaks first.But Ye Qinglan's small gesture really made people feel heartwarming.

Listening to these domestic gossips, Queen Gu's expression gradually relaxed.

Ye Qinglan took advantage of this moment to look carefully at Queen Gu.

The Gu family actually had good looks.Gu Xinian and Gu Xiyu brothers and sisters are all extremely outstanding and dazzling, Gu Hong and Gu Bo brothers are both handsome, elegant and dignified, although Queen Gu is over [-] years old, she is well maintained and is also a beautiful middle-aged noble woman.However, he has been ill for the past two months, his face is thin and haggard, and the crow's feet around his eyes are clearly visible, showing a bit old and sick.While speaking, he tried his best to squeeze a gentle smile, but he still couldn't avoid the occasional trance.

This scrutiny also gave Ye Qinglan a preliminary judgment on Queen Gu's condition.Compared with the time when she entered the palace for an audience last month, Empress Gu's illness has indeed become more serious.He must be treated urgently...

Empress Gu looked over casually, just in time to meet Ye Qinglan's thoughtful gaze, and couldn't help being startled.

Yesterday, I received a letter sent by the Sun family. The letter did not contain details, but only said that Ye Qinglan had a way to cure her illness.To be honest, she didn't really believe these words, but she couldn't bear to disobey Mrs. Sun's good intentions.He nodded in agreement, and let the Yue officer take Ye Qinglan and Zhang Yue into the palace.

Until this moment, she hadn't thought of this question.Ye Qinglan is just a delicate woman who was born in the inner house, and she has never studied medicine, so how could she be able to cure diseases?

A slender court lady reported softly: "Qi Empress, the dinner is ready."

Empress Gu hummed, and smiled at Ye Qinglan and Zhang Yue: "I have a poor appetite these days, and I can't eat at night. You two are here today, so I feel hungry!" After speaking, she stood up .

The maids at the side rushed over and supported Empress Gu's arm from left to right.Looking at this familiar movement, it was obviously a move he was used to.With the support of two court ladies, Empress Gu's steps were finally a little more agile.

Zhang Yue looked secretly startled, always heard about Queen Gu's illness, now that she saw it with her own eyes, she realized that everyone's worries were not unreasonable.

Even the mistress of a noble family has a lot of cumbersome affairs to deal with every day. If she is ill for a long time, she always has to be replaced by the abbot.What's more, Empress Gu is the queen who is in charge of the Six Palaces!

There are so many concubines, maids and eunuchs in the palace, and someone has to take care of every big and small matter.If Empress Gu is so ill, the management of the six palaces will have to be handed over to Concubine Zheng.In this way, even with the title of queen, it is still in name only...

The dinner was very rich and delicate.Queen Gu only took a few mouthfuls, and put down her chopsticks.Seeing this, Zhang Yue hurriedly ate a few mouthfuls and said she was full.

Ye Qinglan had no choice but to follow suit, and glanced at the table with some regret.It was such a waste, I only ate a few bites of many dishes, and some didn't even move a chopstick.

Empress Gu's brows showed tiredness again.Ye Qinglan and Zhang Yue resigned together.

There are a few more court ladies serving at the side, and their speech is not as casual as in the past.Both Ruixue and Ruomei were careful, silently waiting for Ye Qinglan to take a bath, and wringing out her hair.

"Young Mistress, it's getting late, and it's time for you to rest." Ruixue said in a low voice.

Ye Qinglan said with a faint smile: "Wait a little longer!"

Ruixue was startled, but didn't ask any more questions, just nodded, and went to make the bed with Ruomei.

Ye Qinglan waited for a cup of tea, and sure enough, the female officer Yue came.

Under the order of Empress Gu, Yue Nvguan came to invite Ye Qinglan to speak.She was also surprised in her heart, and she looked at Ye Qinglan with a hint of inquiry.

Ye Qinglan just didn't know, and followed her daughter-in-law officer to Queen Gu's bedroom with a calm expression.

Queen Gu's bedroom is spacious and gorgeous, with all kinds of exquisite and expensive furnishings dizzying.But there is an indescribable desertedness in this gorgeousness.Empress Gu had already removed her make-up, and her thin and pale cheeks and the tiredness and sickness in her expression could no longer be concealed, which was clearly revealed under the bright candlelight.Even the eyes are a little dazed and erratic.

However, the moment Ye Qinglan came in, Empress Gu cheered up immediately, her eyes were even a little bit sharp and keen.

This is a very guarded woman who never trusts others easily!

These words quickly flashed through Ye Qinglan's mind, and the corners of her lips raised naturally: "Auntie, are you still up so late?"

Empress Gu's complexion softened a little with this call of aunt, and the scrutiny and vigilance also dissipated a little: "I slept for too long during the day, but now I have some energy, so I specially called you to come and talk."

Are you talking, or do you want to find out about her?

Ye Qinglan smiled gently and calmly: "As long as my aunt doesn't think my niece and daughter-in-law's words are boring, even my niece and daughter-in-law are willing to spend the night."

Empress Gu was so teased that she couldn't help laughing, and winked at Mrs. Yue.Officer Yue nodded lightly, and with a whispered order, all the maids retreated completely.Officer Yue also retreated and stood guard outside the door.

In the gorgeous and deserted bedroom, only Queen Gu and Ye Qinglan were left.

Empress Gu sized Ye Qinglan a few times, and asked slowly: "Can you really cure my illness?"

Ye Qinglan did not answer this question directly, but said with a faint smile: "If my aunt believes in my niece and daughter-in-law, she is willing to give it a try." (To be continued.
