The Six Palaces of Favorites: The Black-bellied Emperor's Cold Concubine

Chapter 13 The Mastermind Behind the Scenes
Yun Feng had just finished prescribing the medicine, and when Jin Xin was sent to fetch the medicine, the emperor entered Yinfengxuan, sitting in front of the couch, seeing how sick he was, he couldn't help asking angrily, "Who was on duty last night?"

Jinxiu knelt down and said: "Last night, the maidservant was on duty. The nobleman took medicine before going to bed, and the maidservant has been guarding."

Xiao Jun asked in a cold voice: "If you keep guarding all the time, do you keep guarding like this? Jinxiu, you are fine, so that's how you work...

I have already spared you once before when you were careless in serving me, do you still remember what I said at that time? "

Jinxiu bowed her head in shame, and replied: "Remember, the emperor said that he would punish him severely."

"Just remember."

The emperor glanced coldly at the door, "Come here, drag it down for twenty heavy responsibilities, and send it to the Clothes Bureau."

Jin Xiu didn't ask for mercy, but at this time Gu Yunfeng came out and knelt down and begged, "Can the emperor listen to my humble minister?

Jinxiu is nobleman Wan's personal maid, and now she is sick and needs someone to take care of her. Even if the emperor sends other maids to take care of her, she doesn't know the habits of nobleman Wan better than she does.

Besides, the nobleman has always been gentle and kind. If she wakes up and sees that the emperor has abandoned her girl, she will feel sad and it will not be conducive to her recovery. Please think twice. "

Xiao Jun snorted coldly, "Your Majesty Wan has always been weak, if you are still so careless, one day if something really happens, I will take your heads off."

Yun Feng kowtowed again and said: "Your Majesty, we can't blame them all for this matter. Your Majesty Wan has been frightened one after another recently, and no one can help it. Besides, she walked a lot in the garden yesterday, and was frightened. After some fatigue, I fell ill again."

Jinxiu also said in a low voice: "Last night, nobleman was unwell, and she didn't sleep well all night. The servant girl said to ask the imperial doctor, but the nobleman said that it would not be a problem, only said that her whole body hurts, and asked the servant girl and Jin Xin to rub her.

In the second half of the night, we talked a lot better, and after eating half a bowl of porridge, the servant waited for the nobleman to sleep.

It suddenly became ill again at dawn, and the servant hurriedly sent someone to the Imperial Hospital to look for a doctor, who would have thought that after a while...he passed out..."

Xiao Jun was about to have a seizure when the person on the bed suddenly stretched out a hand and grabbed his sleeve, murmured deliriously: "Zi Shuo, Zi Shuo..."

Jinxiu and Yunfeng looked at each other quietly, their faces were indescribably strange, the emperor on the bed was slightly startled, looking at the hand holding his sleeve robe, he remained silent for a long time with a complicated expression.

Jin Xin brought the medicine, Yun Feng squeezed her chin, and forcefully poured the medicine down.

The emperor rushed over from the early morning, Yun Feng said that her condition had improved a lot, the fever subsided but she hadn't woken up yet.

It was almost noon when Qingchen woke up, and the emperor had already gone back, and the House of Internal Affairs sent several court ladies and eunuchs.

Qingchen was sick, so he forced Jinxin to bring them in and took a look and said, "Working here is no different than working elsewhere. You will inevitably suffer some grievances in the future. If you can't bear it, you can go back to me and leave. Never stay.

But as long as you stay in Yinfengxuan for one day, you must stick to your duty, keep a low profile, and don't cause trouble.

The most important thing for a slave is loyalty. What I can't tolerate the most is people who eat inside and outside. If someone dares to collude with outsiders to make troubles, I will definitely not forgive them lightly. "

Those people kowtowed and said: "The slave swears to be loyal to the nobleman to the death."

Qing Chen let Jin Xin release the reward, and let them go out to work.

Yunfeng has been guarding Yinfengxuan and did not dare to leave for half a step. After being in a hurry for a long time, Jin Xiucai remembered that Jin Yun hadn't told the Ministry of Internal Affairs before, so he sent Xiao Xiangzi to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

When the queen heard that she was ill, she sent two high-quality ginseng trees, saying it was to calm her down.The emperor also sent a lot of rewards, and Qingchen didn't even look at them, so they put them all away.

When the emperor came to visit her in the afternoon, she fell asleep again, and Yun Feng returned to the emperor, saying that there was no serious problem, as long as she took good care of her, she would recover slowly in a few days.

Yunfeng has been running to Yinfengxuan a lot lately, and with him talking and making trouble with Qingchen, she will recover sooner if she is relieved.

With Jinxin, Jinxiu and Yunfeng beside her, she suddenly seemed to have returned to the Valley of Evil Doctors.

Although that person is gone, in this lonely and deep palace, having a trustworthy friend by his side is the mercy of the heavens and the greatest comfort.

This day, Jin Xin just waited for her to take the medicine, when she saw Jin Xiu come in and say, "My lord, Ye Ronghua and Gu Chang are watching you come."

Qingchen hurriedly said: "Please come in quickly."

Ye Ronghua and Gu Changzai walked in hand in hand, they seemed to be getting along very well.

Qingchen was about to get out of bed to salute, but was held down by Ye Ronghua and said: "There is no need to be polite when you are sick. I saw you in the Imperial Garden that day, but you were only a little thinner. How come you are so sick and haggard after seeing you for a few days?"

Qingchen leaned on the soft pillow and said hoarsely: "I was frightened and caught a little cold, so I couldn't get up.

Sister is new to the palace, she should have gone to see her, but who knows that my body is so useless, I can't get well, instead, my sister will come to see me first. "

Jin Xin moved a soft stool, and the two sat in front of the bed, Jin Xiu was busy serving tea again, Ye Ronghua said: "It's hard for you, that day when Sister Gu went back, I saw her very bluffing."

"is not that right."

Gu Chang said in the interface: "Don't say it's you. I was so scared that I couldn't sleep well for several nights. When I closed my eyes, I dreamed of that big pool of blood. It was really scary."

Qing Chen hurriedly asked: "Sister, did you ask the imperial doctor to see it? If you still can't sleep well, it's better to let the imperial doctor take a look."

Gu Manqin handed the teacup in her hand to the girl behind her, nodded and said, "Look, I've taken some tranquilizing medicine, and I feel much better these days."

Then she asked Caiping to hand a piece of silk and satin in her hand to Jinxin: "After you left that day, the queen asked me to talk for a while, and someone from the House of Internal Affairs sent many high-quality silks and satins to Chengkun Palace. I rewarded me with two horses, and I saw that the brocade brocade was not bad, so I gave you one as a present, don’t hold it against you.”

Qingchen hurriedly thanked and said: "No matter what my sister said, the things sent to the Queen's Palace are naturally good. I don't dare to dislike it, but every time my sister gets good things, she can't forget me, which makes me feel embarrassed."

Gu Manqin smiled and said, "What are you doing with these kind words? It's not the first day we've known each other."

Jin Xin put away her things, and came over to wait on her.

Ye Ronghua asked: "I don't know if my sister has heard that the emperor not only rewarded Xue Jieyu generously, but also promoted her to Wanrong, and she was promoted to two levels at once. Saying it is a consolation."

Qingchen was also a little surprised by such heavy consolation, but still said: "I'm remote here, and I'm sick and haven't gone out, so I haven't heard any news. The emperor has always loved her, and she is the first child. It’s understandable if it’s heavier.”

She thought in her heart that such a heavy reward must be the result of the empress and Concubine Ning's investigation.

But who is Concubine Ning? Even if she doesn't challenge the queen for the time being, she will never just mention it like this. She must have said something in front of the emperor, which made the emperor suspicious and felt ashamed of Xue Jieyu. Under the reward, he was promoted to a position.

Thinking of this, she asked unintentionally: "I don't know how to deal with those careless slaves. Serving the master is so careless. With Xue Jieyu's temperament, they will not spare their lives lightly."

Gu Manqin smiled and said: "You guessed it right, Xue Jieyu, no, it was Xue Wanrong who begged the emperor to let those servants bury the child in her womb.

But the queen was kind and said that she would accumulate blessings for the child who had never seen the light of day, so that she could be reborn into a good family in the future, and begged the emperor to spare the lives of those slaves, and punish them all as coolies to atone for their sins. "

Ye Ronghua lowered his head and flicked the powdered tea in the cup lightly, and said with a faint smile: "The empress is really kind."

Looking at Ye Ronghua's expression, Qingchen knew that she probably had the same thoughts as himself.
