Leader Lan Palace

Chapter 2468 Seven Volumes 172 Never let you go

Those golden leaves were saved by him bit by bit over the years. This time, he originally wanted to give the girl a dowry, but who would have thought that...

Now that Niu is gone, what is he still keeping these things for?
In this world without Niu, there is no longer any place he wants to go... Then what is the meaning of this money to him?
He simply gave it all, and gave it all to the doctor.

In this visit, the doctor was only here to confirm that Er Niu had passed away, and he didn't make it back to life. He was embarrassed to accept the fee for this visit; How much and how can these gold leaves go?The doctor didn't dare to accept it, so he quickly stretched out his arms to stop him.

Mao Tuan'er laughed and shook his head, "Doctor, don't refuse, I know that doctors are noble in nature, and don't like to be rewarded for nothing. In fact, I still have something to ask the doctor for help..."

The doctor hurriedly said, "Please ask Master Mao to order."

Mao Tuan'er smiled sadly, "The doctor also knows that I am an eunuch. This whole body belongs to the emperor, so I can't cause any more common affairs outside the palace. Besides, the emperor has ordered me to go to the Tailing Mausoleum to offer sacrificial vessels. , I have to leave early tomorrow morning."

Mao Tuan'er looked back, looking at the person lying in the red with reluctance and sadness.

"I can't handle the affairs of my righteous sister personally. The emperor's will must not be delayed, so I thought that since I invited you here today, you, my righteous sister, and the last It's a fate. I want to pass on to you doctor what happened to my righteous sister, please do me a big favor, and send my righteous sister to the earth well, please be safe."

Mao Tuan'er took a deep breath as he spoke, trying his best to hide the sadness in his heart that could almost penetrate the big hole in his internal organs.

He pushed those gold leaves into the doctor's hands persistently.

"All the expenses will be paid from here. If there is any leftover, it will be regarded as my gratitude to you, doctor. If the doctor can continue in this way, it will be a great favor to me, my Mao Tuaner In the future, I will definitely repay you with a grass title ring; if the doctor refuses to agree, then my poor righteous sister can only be exposed to the dead body at home, and I don’t know when she will be buried in the ground for safety..."

The doctor felt uncomfortable when he heard that, and knowing Mao Tuan'er's identity, he didn't want to offend him, so he hesitated for a while, and took the gold leaf away, "Leave it to the villain for now, and Master Mao will be busy with the emperor's orders first." The job is just that. The villain would never dare to accept these gold leaves, and every cent must be spent on this girl's funeral."

Mao Tuan'er finally closed his eyes with a smile, but suddenly he grew up and knelt down in front of the doctor.

The doctor was startled, and hastily stretched out his arms to support him, saying repeatedly, "Oh, Lord Mao, how dare you be a villain!"

However, Mao Tuan'er avoided the doctor's hand and insisted on kowtowing to the doctor three times, "I, Mao Tuan'er, have been sold into the palace by my parents early in my life to purify myself. Now, I can't help but hate my parents, so I have never knelt down to them, nor have I kowtowed to them."

"The people I really kneel and kowtow to are the emperor, the empress dowager, and the masters of the palace..." Mao Tuan'er smiled sadly, "To be honest, doctor, you are the first one I knelt and kowtowed outside the palace. This great gift."

"You don't feel uncomfortable. The reason why I am like this is because I want to; I think that only in this way can I repay your great kindness..."

The doctor doesn't understand how important the girl is to him, and the doctor doesn't understand that the most important thing for him at this time is actually to send the girl to the ground... It's a pity that he didn't have time to do it himself, so the doctor If he could help him fulfill this wish, then this doctor would be his greatest benefactor in this life.

Not to mention just kneeling and kowtowing, not to mention just these gold leaves, even if he had to exchange his life for it - after the girl's wish was fulfilled, he would offer it without hesitation.
.
The past is like smoke, and the trace of Yi Ren is like light smoke.

It is tangible yet intangible, even if it can be seen in front of the eyes, but when I stretch out my hand to catch it, it disappears and turns into clouds and water.

Mao Tuan'er closed his eyes, temporarily blinking away Piao Miao.

"Master Xin Concubine, do you know that human life is actually a wisp of smoke, if the servant continues to cover it for a while longer, Master Concubine Xin's life will also be turned into a wisp of smoke, and when the wind blows, it will be dispersed with a puff. "

"Has Concubine Xin felt it? Concubine Xin's life has begun to dissipate little by little. How does Concubine Xin feel about this feeling of watching her life disappear? This feeling is Pain, or relief?"

What Mao Tuan'er said was as cold as the fog rising from the glacier in the cold winter, and Concubine Xin was so nervous that she struggled desperately in Mao Tuan'er's palm.

Just when she was struggling the most, Mao Tuan'er suddenly let go of her hand.

Air suddenly rushed into Concubine Xin's nasal cavity again. What she felt was not the joy of returning to life, but an unbearable weight, and she coughed hoarsely.

Mao Tuan'er stood tall and straight, staring at Concubine Xin contemptuously and mockingly.

Concubine Xin managed to calm down, so she raised her head angrily, clenched her fists and waved at Mao Tuan'er angrily, "Bold slave! The emperor didn't order me to die, so how dare you treat me like this? Just because of your talent For this reason, you should be punished by death!"

Mao Tuan'er was not annoyed, and smiled lightly, "Master Xin Concubine, don't worry, the slave just showed mercy, and will never let Master Xin Concubine go west just like this... The slave just let Master Xin Concubine taste it in advance." Taste it, watching my own life like a thread, just a little bit of the feeling of drifting away."

"The slave will wait for Concubine Xin to die on her own..."

When Niu swallowed the deadly drug, although she was determined, she would still be afraid when that moment came, right?
In this world, who is not afraid of death, and how many people really have the courage to personally send themselves on the road?

He was so sad, at that moment, when Niu was the most lonely and frightened, he couldn't be by Niu's side!
Then let Concubine Xin have a good taste of the same taste!
He wanted Concubine Xin to experience the pain that Concubine Xin inflicted on Niu to understand!

The emperor stood with his back outside the threshold of the Nuan Pavilion, as if he didn't know all this.Only then did the emperor look back leisurely, "Mao Tuan'er, go back to the palace."

Only then did Mao Tuan'er hit Qian'er with one leg, and with a sound of "嗻", he hurriedly followed.
.
It was late at night, and Concubine Xin was lying on the Kang and struggling hard.

She is still unwilling to die, unwilling!
Even if the emperor has made it clear that if she does not die, what awaits her will be a heinous crime of deceiving the emperor; moreover, the emperor has already threatened her father Na Sutu and her daughter, but she is still unwilling to die like this!

So what if it's the biological father, so what if it's the biological daughter!In her life, she didn't live for others, she lived for herself!
She stayed up like this for several days, until the 28th day.

It's the end of the month, and the Dragon Boat Festival is coming, and the garden is full of joy. In order to prevent Wanxi from seeing the truth of Erniu's death, the emperor sent another letter of greetings to Wanxi. .

Wanxi also personally made zongzi made of rhubarb rice and red dates, and specially asked Mao Tuaner to eat them.

Mao Tuan'er was extremely careful, but Wanxi still felt unhappy.

Wanxi put down the zongzi, lowered her eyes, and drank the tea made from the sun-dried rhododendron flowers, and said slowly, "...do you remember this zongzi?"

Mao Tuan'er didn't swallow a mouthful of rice dumplings, almost choked in his throat, quickly grabbed the tea from Wanxi, and poured it into his mouth with his head raised.

After a long time, he finally calmed down, lowered his head, avoiding Wanxi's eyes.

"...Yuye, she likes to eat the zongzi made of wild rice the most. Especially when dipped in green osmanthus honey." Mao Tuan'er sniffed carefully, "These are the ways she eats since she was a child. The child learned it together with the master."

After all, in the palace, when Mao Tuan'er talked about Erniu, he had to be careful to refer to her as Yuye.

Wan Xi smiled and nodded, "You're right, this is Er Niu's favorite zongzi."

After Wanxi finished speaking, she quietly raised her head and looked at Mao Tuan'er, "But Mao Tuan'er, tell me why I asked Yongchang, her uncle Mandou's house has prepared rice dumplings with big yellow rice... Yongchang is there But she said 'no'? She also said that her uncle's family doesn't like to eat yellow rice, and that it's easy to vomit sour water after eating?"
.
Mao Tuan'er was shocked and looked at Wanxi, not knowing how to answer for a moment.

He thought that with the full support of the emperor and Yong Changzai, and more importantly, the stack of autographed letters that Erniu left carefully before she left, the master had already been concealed.Unexpectedly, when he was a little slack, the master had already made a move to test Yongchang!

But Mao Tuan'er also knew that he had to answer, and he couldn't hesitate for too long, so he said embarrassingly, "Maybe... it's because Yuye's taste has changed. After all, she has grown up, and after she grows up, maybe her taste will change." Then it changed."

Wanxi smiled faintly, without comment.

She always looked defenseless before her eyes, and said in a daze, "Why do you want to eat this big yellow rice dumpling? Is it better than glutinous rice? This is an old tradition outside the customs, but we have been in the customs for more than 100 years." Now, I always think glutinous rice is delicious, but the big yellow rice makes me vomit sour water after eating it!"

Compared with the emperor and Mao Tuan'er, Yong Chang Zai Zi is the weakest link.Don't say that she doesn't know Er Niu's taste at all, she has never even seen Er Niu before, Wanxi is the smartest to pinch her to ask.

Wanxi lowered her head and said lightly, "Since the Mandou family didn't like to eat rice dumplings made of rhubarb rice, let alone Qinggui honey, I'll give her a special one. Mao Tuaner, you can arrange it." Personally, since the Dragon Boat Festival is going to be offered at the imperial mausoleum, and officials from the House of Internal Affairs will be sent over from the palace, you can help me get these zongzi and green osmanthus honey to the officials to take to Er Niu."

Mao Tuan'er was a little stunned.

Wanxi seemed to have already imagined Mao Tuan'er's expression, so she didn't look up, let alone surprised.

"...Since Er Niu wrote me a letter to greet me, she asked her to finish eating the rice dumplings, and also wrote a letter to the palace to tell me if her taste had changed. Does she still like the rice dumplings I gave her? "

After Wanxi finished speaking, she called directly, "Yuying, are the zongzi ready? Bring them here quickly."

Mao Tuan'er was already so nervous that she was shaking her head - the master made this a temporary idea, how could Er Niu have predicted it?Then make the master wait for Er Niu's reply, where can this letter come from? !
Although there are Hanlin and Bitie styles in the palace, there must be masters who copied handwriting among them.It's just that the master grew up with Erniu since childhood, and even Erniu's handwriting was taught by the master himself. If you ask someone to imitate Erniu's handwriting, it will undoubtedly be a great adventure!
If the master was ordered to find out the difference in handwriting, then everything would be obvious.

Mao Tuan'er didn't expect it to change his master's machine so much that he didn't know how to deal with it.

——The most important thing is that at this moment, there is no emperor by his side to support him!With his brains, how can he fight against Master Ling?

"Master, master..." Mao Tuan'er straightened up and knelt on the ground, "This slave is useless. After returning to the palace for so many days, I still can't hear any news about Yuye. Let alone ask the slave to do this matter." ...The slave begs the master, just take back what you just wanted, let alone mention her in front of the slave, just let her live her own happy life!"

Wanxi slowly raised her eyes, but her face turned cold little by little.

After a while, Wanxi slapped the table abruptly, "Mao Tuan'er, what happened to Er Niu? How dare you hide it from me in front of me?"

Mao Tuan'er was so shocked that he could only kowtow, "The master is happy and angry, how dare the slave! The master doesn't believe in the slave, why doesn't he believe in eternity? Especially, can the master not believe in the emperor?"

Wanxi smiled sadly, "I know what you want to say, the emperor is naturally your biggest reliance. But I called you here alone today, it's a pity that the emperor can't always be by your side to protect you Go - if I can't ask the emperor, can't I fix you?"

Wanxi stood up slowly, even though she had slowed down, her standing body was still shaking slightly.

"I just want to know, what happened to Er Niu?! You can't hide it from me, even if you can hide it for a while, but you can't hide it from me for a lifetime! Believe it or not, I will find an opportunity to go to Mandou's house in person Go see her! If I can't see her by then... Mao Tuaner, by then, my relationship with you will be over!"

At this moment, Mao Tuan'er really wished that he had gone with the second girl... To make him face such pain and questioning from his master, he wished he could gouge out his own heart, and quickly fed it to the dog !

Wanxi was able to stabilize her figure by leaning on the table, "Say, Er Niu, did something happen to her? Since you came back to the palace, did someone make a fuss about you in order to target me? Go, that's why Erniu she...she's afraid of hurting me, so she..."

Wanxi couldn't say the word "death" no matter what, no matter what, she couldn't bear to settle on Er Niu!
That girl, that little chili who grew up with her since she was a child, that sharp-tongued, unyielding little pepper, how could she—wronged herself so much, even surrendered her life like this!
.
Mao Tuan'er kept his mouth shut, refusing to speak.It's just that the severe pain in my heart, which has always been there, was hooked out again by Ling Master's questioning, telling him that he could shut his mouth, but he couldn't close his eyes no matter what—this is still blood pouring into his pupils go.

Wanxi fixedly looked into Mao Tuan'er's eyes.

There is no need for his verbal answer, his expression has already given her the clearest answer!
Wanxi stopped trembling, she stood firm and gritted her silver teeth lightly.

"Say...who is it?!"
.
That night, Chen Shiguan suddenly also received an order from the imperial concubine and empress, and went to pay her respects to the imperial concubine.

He went there rashly, but left half an hour later, but he was devastated.

When he came out of the imperial concubine's bedroom, he didn't dare to go directly to see the emperor, so he hurriedly went to find Gui Yunsampan.

At any rate, Guijia's uncle and nephew have been serving the imperial concubine and empress, he may be able to find some explanation from Gui Yunsampan.

After hearing his words, Gui Yunzhe was also startled, "What did you say? The imperial concubine wronged you?"

Gui Yunsang was about to cry on the spot, "Exactly! The imperial concubine only said that she is a little angry these days. I asked for a pulse, and the pulse condition was indeed the same. The imperial concubine insisted that I prescribe a prescription for purging fire, He also asked me to fry it myself and serve it... I was cautious at first, because I was not familiar with the pulse of the imperial concubine for the first time, so I used the lightest medicine."

"But who would have imagined that the imperial concubine had taken the medicine, and soon she was vomiting and diarrhea—the imperial concubine pointed at my nose and scolded me angrily, saying that I hurt her..."

Gui Yunsan couldn't help raising his eyebrows when he heard this, and then he had some understanding in his heart.Gui Yunjie asked cautiously, "Xiao Chen, I just want to ask you, have you ever done something to offend a noble concubine?"

Chen Shiguan's throat choked up, "How could it be! I have only been in the palace for a long time, and what's more, with the title of an inferior official, how can I be qualified to enter the palace of the imperial concubine, let alone offend the imperial concubine!"

Guiyun Sang squinted his eyes, and also sullenly said, "Impossible! I have been serving the imperial concubine for ten years. I understand the temperament of the imperial concubine. The imperial concubine is definitely not someone who just picks up a subject. !"

Chen Shiguan lowered his head guiltily.

Gui Yunjie guessed right, the imperial concubine asked about her service to Concubine Xin.

He naturally pretended to be stupid and didn't answer anything, so the imperial concubine threw such a big blame on his back.

Chen Shiguan begged with a mournful face, "Return to the imperial doctor... Please teach me a way. Otherwise, I am worried that my little life will be punished to death by the imperial concubine."

Gui Yunsan rolled his eyes, "If you ask me to teach you, the method is the simplest and it's all obvious: that is to tell the truth to the imperial concubine."

"As long as you tell the truth, it doesn't matter if you made any mistakes. The imperial concubine is the most tolerant, and she won't care about you; but if you continue to play tricks in front of the imperial concubine, thinking that you can fool the imperial concubine Go, empress—then she will have many ways to trick you in the future. The imperial concubine is born with a delicate heart, if you really want to punish someone, I assure you, you won't even know how you died."

Chen Shiguan was frightened, and stared blankly at Gui Yunsampan.

Gui Yunsang nodded vigorously, "That's right, this is the only way to survive, there is no other way."

Chen Shiguan finally cried out of fear, his nose burst into tears and he said, "But I can't let others know what I said, otherwise, the emperor will have to pick off my head."

Gui Yunsan smiled faintly, "You, you just entered the palace late, and you are not sensible. Are you still afraid that the emperor will pick off your head? Let me tell you, if the imperial concubine or empress plays petty things, she will not even be able to offend the emperor! "

The two of them hadn't finished talking when Ma Lin came in and said to Chen Shiguan with a smirk on his face, "Master, the imperial concubine, knows that the imperial doctor Chen has come to our grandpa Xiaogui. The imperial concubine said, tell me to come and watch Chen Shiguan." The imperial physician, said that after the imperial physician Chen finished crying, I will ask the imperial physician Chen to go back and talk."

"The concubine master said, tell the imperial doctor Chen to drink this bowl of medicine. It's hard to say whether he can survive tonight... The master concubine said that if the imperial concubine Chen doesn't go there, the master concubine will send someone to tell the emperor to tell the emperor." The emperor is preparing to put on old clothes..."

The imperial concubine and empress actually dropped such harsh words, Chen Shiguan was so frightened that he couldn't breathe.

Gui Yun was not surprised, but looked at Chen Shiguan sympathetically, and sighed, "Hurry up. Don't try to compete with the imperial concubine, or I will prepare old clothes for you."
.
On April 29, it was still dark.

It's just that the emperors of the Qing Dynasty all got up before dawn to deal with state affairs, so the entire harem also worked and rested according to this hour.

At this time, all the palace gates have been opened.

But Concubine Xin is at ease, the queen will not come so early at this time.She had to wait until daylight to come.

But unexpectedly, the door of the warm pavilion slammed, and two people walked in.

Concubine Xin raised her eyes and looked, she was even more terrified than seeing Na Lashi, she was so frightened that she cried out "Ah".

It was Wanxi who came.

Yurui accompanied Wanxi in person, and did not greet Concubine Xin, but just moved the chair with her own hands, so that Wanxi could sit down comfortably.

Wanxi lowered her eyes faintly, "Concubine Xin, you didn't expect me to come today, did you?"

Concubine Xin also sneered, "I never thought of you at all! I don't care if you come or not!"

Wanxi shrugged, "Well, I knew you would have such an expression, which made me see more vividly what is the end of a crossbow, what is a dying struggle, and what is - stubborn resistance."

Wanxi raised her eyes with a smile, and her eyes turned lightly, "If you really don't care, you won't rush to refute with such a stern look. The real indifference is not shouting 'I don't care', but— — just laugh it off."

"So you look like this, it's not that you don't really care, but that you really care, even——you're afraid of me coming, you're afraid of letting me see you in a mess right now. You're afraid that you will fall into My eyes, it will make me laugh out loud, and it will make you really, really screw up!"

"I didn't, so I didn't lose to you!" Concubine Xin yelled anxiously, "Wei Wanxi, you and I both know that you have been protected by the emperor in the harem all these years, and you have been protected by the emperor. The help of your good sisters, but you still suffered a lot of losses! And those, almost all of them were tricks I set for you, and you lost to me!"
