The favored imperial concubine

Chapter 37

Mu Changzai sang and cooperated with Du Juan's master and servant, and finally found an opportunity to mix the prepared rouge into a rouge box containing light pink rouge cream in Nian Xilan.Little did they know that although they did it very skillfully, they did not escape Fang Wan's alert eyes.

Mu Changzai returned to Nian Xilan in a happy mood. Seeing that Nian Xilan treated her a little strangely, although the etiquette was not bad, he was not close to her, and he was obviously still wary of her.

Mu Chang pondered for a moment, and in order to further dispel Nian Xilan's guard against her, he planned to talk about some topics that Nian Xilan was interested in to please her, "I went to Jingren Palace to greet Tong Guifei a few days ago. At that time, I saw that the brocade handkerchief used by Concubine Tong was very delicate, and I was immediately envious. After asking, I found out that this brocade handkerchief was actually embroidered by the noble sister as a gift to Concubine Tong. I don’t know if the noble sister has a similar embroidered handkerchief. Taste?"

Nian Xilan smiled, and explained gently: "Although I like to play with some embroidery, but I embroider very slowly, so I don't embroider too much with my own hands. Now I only have some brocade handkerchiefs that I have already used. .”

"Oh? I wonder if my younger sister is lucky enough to be able to ask for a brocade handkerchief embroidered by a noble elder sister? If you can often hold it in your hand and look at it, firstly, it will be pleasing to the eye, and secondly, you can learn embroidery techniques from your elder sister."

When Nian Xilan heard this, she suddenly thought of Kangxi's domineering appearance when she asked her to use the embroidery embroidered by her mother as a gift to other concubines. A little pleasant smile.

Nian Xilan's heart moved, and she suddenly wanted to indulge once. According to Kangxi's instructions, she used the embroidery embroidered by the embroiderer to send the unknown and twinkling Mu Changzai in front of her.In this way, Mu Changzai can not only make Mu Changzai retreat in the face of difficulties, save himself the trouble of dealing with her, but also take this opportunity to test his position in Kangxi's heart.

However, just as Nian Xilan was about to speak, she saw Mu Changzai suddenly covering her lower abdomen with both hands, and her expression changed due to the pain.

Nian Xilan's heart trembled, she quickly stood up, and asked worriedly: "What's wrong with you? You broke out in a cold sweat? It's better to ask the imperial doctor to come and see. It will be even more difficult to make amends!"

Mu Changzai also felt that his severe abdominal pain was indeed very strange, but he didn't want other imperial physicians to know about his inability to conceive.

Thinking of the banknotes used to bribe Dr. Shen to help her keep the secret, Mu Chang felt distressed for a while, so he gritted his teeth and forced himself to stand up, and refused in a trembling voice: "Your sister's kindness, my sister is very happy." Thank you. My sister must have eaten something bad last night, which is why I have some abdominal pain. Just go back and rest for a while. There is no need to bother the imperial doctor to come to check the pulse. My sister is not feeling well, so I will leave first. The noble sister does not have to worry about her sister I'm worried. It wouldn't be beautiful if the elder sister of the noble lady delayed her visit to Jingren Palace to pay her respects to Concubine Tong Gui because of her younger sister's affairs."

After Mu Changzai finished speaking, he ignored Nian Xilan's persuasion and left Chuxiu Palace with Du Juan's support.

Nian Xilan looked at the back of Mu Changzai leaving with his master and servant together, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said lightly: "The teacup that Mu Changzai and I used to drink tea just now is in the same place, and no one is allowed to move it without permission. Don't pour out the half cup of tea left in it. Fang Wan, you don't have to accompany me to Jingren Palace today to pay my respects, just let Fang Lin accompany me. You stay here and take good care of these two cups of tea for me. I always feel that it is a bit strange that Mu Chang came here today as a master and servant."

Fang Wan respectfully knelt down, "Master, don't worry, this servant will definitely live up to your trust. Moreover, this servant just saw Mu Changzai deliberately ask Du Juan to pester this servant to ask about her dressing skills, so she took the opportunity to mix some rouge cream of the same color into her face." In the rouge box that the master often uses. Just after Mu Chang left before the master and servant, the servant has already kept the box of light pink rouge cream separately. It can be seen that Mu Changzai really has no good intentions. I am afraid that the box of rouge is too big There is a problem! Master, do you need to report this matter to the emperor immediately, and ask the emperor to make the decision for you?"

Nian Xilan shook her head slowly, "Today is the day when the emperor holds a grand court meeting, and there are many government affairs that the emperor needs to handle personally. The emperor must not be distracted by these undetermined harem trifles and delay the state affairs of the previous dynasty. "

Nian Xilan thought about Mu Changzai's unbearable abdominal pain just now, and a strong uneasiness suddenly rose in her heart, as if she had a premonition of some unexpected danger that was about to escape her control.

Nianxi Lan Dai frowned slightly, thought for a moment very seriously, took a deep breath, and said softly: "Fang Wan, if I haven't come back after a certain time, you can ask Doctor Liu who came to take my pulse to go first." Go to Qianqing Palace to get the emperor's peace pulse. My body is just a trivial matter, and the health of the emperor's dragon body is related to the Qing's long-term foundation and the well-being of all people in the world, and there must be no mistakes."
