first princess

Chapter 43
Shui Linglong said coldly, "I've never been angry with Miss Guo. Now, please let me go. Since you've done me a little favor, I'll pretend I haven't seen you tonight. You can go."

that's all?Guo Yan's heart was slightly lost. They were the closest people in the world, but they were strangers in front of them. His heart was full of unwillingness, annoyance, grievance, and even anger.But soon, he calmed down, it was a hard-won blessing to see her alive, what else could he expect?He deserves how cold she treats him, not to mention that this kind of cold treatment is nothing compared to the harm he caused her in the previous life.

He smiled again, his eyes filled with happiness: "I'll take you back."

Just like when you hugged me when I was a child.

Shui Lingqing went back to her room and took off her torn outer blouse, and put on a light green brocade brocade dress and a plain moon skirt, and wiped the dust off her shoes. The elder sister had told her to curry favor with Empress Yufei, so she couldn't be negligent in terms of etiquette.

As soon as she walked out of the door, she bumped into Shui Linglong who was in a hurry. She was shocked: "Eldest sister! Why are you back? You came to look for me?"

Be it!Shui Linglong's face was slightly flushed, thinking of being hugged by Guo Yan all the way, like a baby, she was somewhat uncomfortable, but fortunately she didn't feel any bad ambiguous aura from Guo Yan's body, and , She, who has never liked to be close to people, does not reject getting along with Guo Yan, this is so strange!She pulled Shui Lingqing into the room, Qiaoer was arranging the coat that Shui Lingqing had changed, when she saw that Shui Lingqing had folded it back so quickly, and the young lady was still beside her, she couldn't help but was taken aback, then bowed and walked away Salute: "Eldest Miss, Fifth Miss!"

Shui Linglong glanced across Qiao'er's face, fell into Shui Lingqing's surprised eyes, and said solemnly: "Listen, you don't know what I'm doing in the kitchen tonight, and you don't know what I'm doing. When you went back to your room, you just wandered around in the kitchen, and you were called away by Eunuch De before you figured out the situation. After you changed your clothes, you found that I had already rested when you passed by the north room. As for the other side Yes, you don't know anything, remember?"

Shui Lingqing was startled: "Huh?" She clearly knew what the elder sister was doing!And she stayed in the kitchen for a long time, did the elder sister want her to lie?
"Qing'er, do you listen to Eldest Sister?" Shui Linglong asked seriously, and Shui Lingqing nodded, "Well, I always listen to Eldest Sister, and I will say whatever Eldest Sister asks me to say."

Qiao'er hurriedly said: "The servant also listens to the eldest lady!"

Shui Linglong let out a sigh of satisfaction, and suddenly recalled what happened in the small kitchen, the corners of her lips gradually raised a cold arc. With the lessons from her previous life, she did not intend to kill recklessly to the end in this life, so she As for Shui Lingxi, she didn't kill them all immediately, but some people are just vile!
In the room, there were too many branches, and she was sitting on the chair and dozing off for a while. When she heard the door being pushed, she suddenly woke up, and subconsciously called out: "Miss?!"

"It's me." Shui Linglong replied lightly. Zhifan hurriedly got up, walked around the screen and closed the door and bolted it, and then turned on all the lights in the room. She looked at Shui Linglong carefully and found that Shui Linglong His complexion was not very good-looking, and he thought to himself, could it be that the dishes did not suit Yu Fei's appetite, and she suffered from Yu Fei's cold face?
Zhifan welcomes Shui Linglong to sit on the soft couch, and then goes to the ear room to bring warm water to wash Shui Linglong's hands. In the Shangshu Mansion, Shui Linglong always soaks her hands with milk or goat milk sooner or later, the palace is no better than her own home, so she has to make do with it .

Shui Linglong let Zhifan play around like a wooden man, thinking about what to do next in her mind.

Zhifan followed Professor Shui Linglong's steps: wash the palms, the back of the hands, the crevices of the fingers, the fingers, and the nails one by one, then brought essential oils and massaged her slowly. Unexpectedly, she glanced down inadvertently, but saw a little mud on the skirt of the exquisite skirt.From the small kitchen to the east room, the road is clean and dry, and most of the floors are covered with bluestone or marble floors. Where did the mud come from?And if it doesn't rain for many days, even the grass in the garden doesn't have this thing.

"Miss." Zhi Fan called out, looking fixedly at Shui Linglong, expecting Shui Linglong to tell her what happened, not only because she cared about the master, but also because it represented the master's trust in her.But she has never been a master, so of course she doesn't understand the master's position. Sometimes it's not that the master is too lazy to say this, and it's not that the master doesn't trust the maid, but that being indifferent is sometimes more impulsive than opening up.

Shui Linglong looked at Zhi Fan, and said calmly, "Remember, you haven't been to the small kitchen tonight."

Instead of answering her questions, she directly issued a death order.

Zhi Fan's heart was wrenched, she was promoted to the maidservant, and entered the palace with the eldest lady, she couldn't help but feel a little ecstatic, thinking that her cleverness had finally squeezed out Ye Mao and Liu Lu, but she didn't know that sometimes her cleverness was mistaken by her cleverness, and the eldest lady valued her a bit She is a clever person, but she hates other people using this kind of cleverness on her.

It turns out that being sincere is not enough, she has to learn...to be honest.

In the Dongci room, Concubine Yu lay down with her clothes on. It was late at night, but she still had no sleepiness. It was reasonable for Shui Linglong not to bring the food, but she still felt a little uneasy, maybe because the emperor Left without saying hello?
"I want to eat pineapple, do you have pineapple?" Concubine Yu asked casually.

Lady Xin replied softly from outside the curtain, "Returning to Madam, there are no pineapples in the capital this season."

Concubine Yu didn't take it seriously: "There is no one in the capital, nor in the south? I heard that the inspector from the south sent two baskets of pineapples. Didn't the Guanju Palace get any?"

Lady Xin looked embarrassed and didn't know how to answer. Concubine Yu turned over with a little force, and her stomach throbbed. She gasped and almost lost her soul. It was only after the adverse reaction that he was relieved a little, he sighed, and his tone was a little impatient: "Understood, turn off the lights, if Xiao Dezi returns to life, just stand outside the screen."

Xiao Dezi took the needle and thread prepared for Shui Lingqing and walked around the inner courtyard. The emperor had already left. He ate most of the food on the plate and drank some milk wine. I am very happy.Xiao Dezi went to Shui Lingqing's room again. Shui Lingqing was taking a bath. Qiaoer saw him. He smiled and handed the needle and thread to Qiaoer, and said tentatively: "Miss Qiaoer, please tell Miss Fifth, Concubine Yu There is no need for her to go there."

Qiao'er smiled and said: "Missy also ordered so just now!"

Concubine Yu clearly asked Shui Linglong to bring the dishes over in person, but Shui Linglong refused to go. Could it be that the emperor pardoned her?Xiao Dezi couldn't help but be a little happy: "Okay! I have offended Miss Fifth today, sister Qiaoer, please give me a few words of kindness!"

Qiao'er smiled: "Look at what Eunuch said, it was just an accident, you're being too serious, and forget about it, lest it spread out and make people think Miss Fifth is narrow-minded!"

Xiao Dezi's smile froze: "That's the reason! The servant is leaving first, Miss Fifth can go to bed!"

After saying that, she turned around, her smile turned cold, and she hit the maid with a swollen face pretending to be fat!
Looking at the back of Xiao Dezi going away, Qiao'er's eyes turned cold, what an eunuch!
Xiao Dezi stood at the door of the North Main Room for a while without hearing any movement or seeing any light in the room, so he went to the East Second Room to report: "Your Majesty, the dishes and milk wine in the kitchen have been touched, Missy!" After returning to the house, I don’t know if Long Live Lord asked her to go back, the servant wanted to see the young lady but the young lady stopped, so the servant didn’t want to force her way in.”

What Concubine Yu wants is not such worthless news!Concubine Yu picked up the pillow and threw it at Xiao Dezi: "Get lost!"

The next day, Shui Ling went to Beizhengjian after getting up early in the morning, planning to ask Shang Shui Linglong to meet Yu Fei in front, but unexpectedly, as soon as Shui Lingqing stepped into the room, she heard Zhi Fan whimpering and crying, her heart ached. Trembling, she walked around the screen in two or three steps, and saw Shui Linglong lying on the bed with a pale face: "Eldest sister! Eldest sister, what's wrong with you?"

Shui Linglong didn't respond!
Shui Lingqing's heart trembled again, an ominous premonition spread over her heart, she sat on the side of the bed, held Shui Linglong's cold hand, and asked Xiang Zhifan: "What's wrong with my eldest sister? Zhifan, don't cry so tight , tell me! My eldest sister was fine last night? Why now... now I call her...she can't even hear me?"

Zhi Fan sniffed, and sobbed: "Eldest...Eldest Miss...I don't know what happened, maybe I kicked the quilt...Maybe I caught a cold when I went to the toilet at night..."

Shui Lingqing panicked all of a sudden, she always followed her eldest sister, there was no wind or rain, and her elder sister made decisions for her in everything, now that her eldest sister fell ill, she suddenly seemed to have lost her backbone As if at a loss, she said, "Sister! Wake up, I... I'm so scared!"

Zhi Fan wiped away tears, stood up and poured a cup of tea for Shui Lingqing, Shui Lingqing waved her hand away, Zhi Fan comforted, "Fifth Miss, don't cry, it won't help if you cry, I'd better inform Empress Yufei quickly, please Your Majesty, send an imperial doctor over here!"

"Yes! Yes! Please doctor!" Shui Ling stood up cleanly, wiped her tears and went out, rampantly, bumped into Shui Lingyue as soon as she opened the door, Shui Lingyue's foot was trampled hard, she Suffering from the pain, she glared at the person who came by displeasedly, and was about to get angry. After seeing the person and the location of the incident clearly, her anger was instantly blocked in her throat, "It's Fifth Sister!" She greeted with a smile, He bowed his head and began to arrange the clean and clean skirt.

Shui Lingyue wore a pink embroidered white jasmine beanie, she looked slender and fair-skinned, and wore a lily bun, which was a bit mature for her age, but she was charming and did not make people feel awkward. On the left is a gold-plated orchid hairpin and a pair of jasmine white jade flowers, and on the right is a small fresh peach blossom. She turns her beautiful eyes and looks forward, looking fresh, bright, soft and moving.

Among the five sisters, besides Shui Lingxi, Shui Lingyue is the most beautiful. Even if she sees her every day and every month, Shui Lingqing is still amazed by Shui Lingyue in front of her. She feels that today's The fourth sister seemed to be a bit different, Shui Lingyue was uncomfortable being looked at, cleared her throat, and looked away, Shui Lingqing murmured: "Fourth sister...you...you are so beautiful!"

Originally, she just wanted to act to be kind to Shui Lingqing, but now that she heard this, Shui Lingyue's smile became a little bit real. She touched the orchid hairpin on her head, glanced at the room from the corner of her eye, and asked, "Where are you going?" Greetings to Concubine Yu? Why didn’t Eldest Sister come out with you?”

Shui Lingqing couldn't help but burst into tears again: "Elder Sister...Elder Sister is sick! In a coma...I...I just want to ask Empress Yufei to hire an imperial doctor!"

Could it be that something happened to Shui Linglong after she left the kitchen yesterday?Shui Lingyue's eyes had a meaningful sparkle, and she smiled and comforted: "Okay, how old are you, you don't have to worry about the jokes of Concubine Yu, you are usually close to the eldest sister, don't make people laugh Big Sister didn’t teach you well!”

As soon as the words fell, Shui Lingqing stopped crying.

Seeing that the three words "Shui Linglong" are so effective for Shui Lingqing, Shui Lingyue doesn't know whether to be happy or worried. A piece of meat is indisputable and delicious. When there is no Shui Linglong, Shui Lingyue doesn't think there is anything rare about Shui Lingqing Now, after this trouble, Shui Lingyue feels that if Shui Lingqing is more vague than Shui Linglong, then she is also happy.With this in mind, Shui Lingyue pulled out a jasmine white jade flower and put it on Shui Lingqing's bun, like a generous and kind sister: "Look at you, aren't you dressed too plainly? What do you need in the future? Just tell Fourth Sister, Fourth Sister will treat you better than Eldest Sister."

"Ah?" Shui Lingqing was dumbfounded...

"Since I'm here, I'll go in and see Eldest Sister too." Shui Lingyue lifted her skirt and walked into the bedroom with great poise.

Zhi Fan sat on the bedside chair and sobbed softly, Shui Linglong was lying on the bed with a pale face, a few strands of blue hair stuck to the sweat-stained temples, making her look weaker and weaker.Remembering that she searched the small kitchen and its vicinity last night but did not see Shui Linglong, she couldn't help wondering, where did Shui Linglong go at that time?Are you hiding in an unknown dark place, or have you already returned to your room?A gleam of coldness flashed across Shui Lingyue's crystal eyes, but she said softly: "Eldest sister, I am the fourth younger sister, can you hear me? We are going to pay my respects to Empress Yufei, it would be bad if I missed the hour. "

After saying that, after waiting for a while, Shui Linglong remained silent.

Is it really sick?Not pretending?Shui Lingyue moved to the side of the bed, held Shui Linglong's hand, intending to pinch her hard to see if she was really dizzy or fake, but who would have thought that when that plain hand that was as soft as a sponge fell into her palm When it was time, she instinctively held it with both hands, for fear of breaking it!It is said that hands are a woman's second face. Obviously, Shui Linglong's "face" is much more beautiful than all of them!Slender and soft, smooth as jade, delicate as fat, more delicate than a baby's skin, not to mention pinching, even a light touch is afraid of scratching the skin.Shui Lingyue frowned, and gently tucked Shui Linglong's hands back under the quilt: "Give your concubine Yu Concubine a treat, and by the way, invite an imperial physician."

During breakfast, Concubine Yu heard the news that Shui Linglong was in a coma, her expression changed immediately, and she immediately invited the familiar doctor Chen to come over.After examining Shui Linglong's pulse through the curtain, Imperial Physician Chen asked Zhi Fanshui Linglong about her sleep at night.

Zhi Fan replied: "Missy always sleeps well, last night I don't know if it's because I just arrived here, I screamed several times in my dream."

scream?In fact, Miss Shui's pulse condition has no symptoms, it can be said that it is very good, but as an imperial physician, if he can't give a reasonable explanation, it's not that the eldest lady is not ill, but that he is incompetent in diagnosis. Imperial physician Chen stared and said: "Mr. Miss should be surprised, and also a little bit cold."

Concubine Yu was dumbfounded, what does it mean to be frightened?Could it be that the emperor did something wrong to Shui Linglong in the small kitchen last night?If it is true, it shouldn’t be so calm this morning. The emperor is naturally romantic, but he won’t take anyone at will without giving him a title. Generally speaking, the emperor is a very responsible man. Hell, what happened last night? What happened?

Imperial physician Chen prescribed some medicines to suppress shock and treat wind and cold. Concubine Yu arranged for two seasoned maids to serve Shui Linglong along with Zhifan. She never thought that after one night, Shui Linglong's condition was not under proper control, and instead she started to treat Shui Linglong in the middle of the night. In addition, there were many small red spots on his back, stomach and thighs.

The Imperial Physician could not look at Shui Linglong's body, it was reported by the court ladies, Imperial Physician Chen gave Shui Linglong a pulse again, this time, he never dared to say that Shui Linglong was just frightened or caught a cold.He changed the prescription, and two days later, Shui Linglong's condition became more and more serious, with red rashes on the back of her hands and face. For a while, the news that Concubine Yu's niece had a strange disease spread like wildfire, and soon spread to the queen. in the ears.

Originally, the family members of the concubines had to pay respects to the empress first when they entered the palace, but the empress did not want to see the concubine Yu. Therefore, the empress exempted them from paying their respects before Shui Linglong and her party entered the palace. After all, she has no reason to ignore it, especially the disease...it sounds horrible!
The third princess was playing on the swing in the imperial garden, and the palace servants reported that the son-in-law was coming. The third princess was overjoyed, and immediately jumped off the swing and ran to Guo Yan, smiling and saying: "You are here!"

"Well, after the court, I asked the emperor for an order to come and see you." If he didn't have the title of son-in-law, he would not be able to enter the harem at all. Remembering Zhuge Yu's anxious look at the gate of the palace and having no other choice, he My heart is really happy, hum!There is no way to rob Linglong from him!Soon Linglong will find out who treats her best in this world!Of course, the joy was only for a moment, and he was more worried, so worried that he couldn't sleep all night, afraid that before he called her "mother", she would be separated from him.He clearly remembered that when he took her back to his room that night, she was fine, why did he fall ill so suddenly?At this moment, he suddenly realized that he had so little control over her situation!

"Guo Yan, what have you been up to these days?" The third princess asked with a sweet smile.
