Rebirth of the Splendid Phoenix

Chapter 74
"My lord."

The woman who used to be bold and flirtatious, vying to be favored by the King of Qi, now looks like a little mouse, with a pale face, a miserable look, and trembling hands.

"Drinking medicine."

She tremblingly moved the medicine bowl, which was nearly half spilled in her hand, towards the man lying motionless on the bed with her eyes closed, but she stopped when she reached halfway, not daring to move any further, she looked at The man on the bed couldn't see the handsome and gentle man in the past at all. At this moment, the only impression he gave was that it was dirty, miserable, and scary.

Although the clothes on the bed were changed, they were quickly stained with dirt, their hair was messy, and there were red rashes all over their faces and hands, some of which were already ripe, and yellow pus bloomed.

The whole room is full of sour smell mixed with chaotic medicine smell, and the dull air makes people want to vomit.

The woman's eyes couldn't help showing a little disgust: "My lord, I've taken the medicine, wake up."

Her other hand couldn't help covering her nose, not daring to breathe.

King Qi was very confused, his whole body was aching and itchy, his chest felt nauseous, he knew that his current condition was very bad, he had smallpox, and those useless imperial doctors were all useless.

He didn't know how he got smallpox, but he knew he couldn't die, and he couldn't die no matter what.

Reluctantly opening his eyes, King Qi saw the loathing and disgusting eyes of the woman who used to admire and love him.

At that moment, King Qi was furious from the bottom of his heart: "You despise me very much?"

His eyes were dark and terrifying.

The concubine was startled, and hurriedly put down her hand covering her nose: "My lord, my lord misunderstood, I'm just worried about my lord."

"Bitch!"

King Qi swung his hand fiercely.

The concubine screamed and was pushed to the ground by him.

The medicine bowl in her hand shattered into pieces, and the pieces hit her hands and body, and a lot of blood gushed out in an instant.

As soon as King Qi pushed her away, he lost his strength and collapsed on the couch, gasping for breath: "Bitch, how dare you despise this king?"

The concubine on the ground was mourning and crying, and her beautiful face was crying with a little bit of tenderness.

But King Qi didn't have the slightest pity in his heart at the moment.

He only thought of the faces of those concubines avoiding disgust in the past two days, the excuse of his beloved princess who refused to come to serve him with the excuse of having a baby in her womb, and the little princess in the mansion who dared not even face him since he was sick. Show your face.

At that moment, the anger disappeared, and the darkness in his eyes became even worse.

He slowly groped for something on the side of his bed.

The servants guarding outside heard a miserable cry and rushed in quickly.

But he only saw King Qi holding a sword in his hand, and the tip of the sword pierced deeply into the concubine's heart.

Blood stained the ground, and the whole room was filled with a disgusting smell of blood.

King Qi looked coldly at the stunned servants of the palace: "This woman just tried to assassinate this king in vain, so she dragged her down to feed the dogs."

He doesn't have the gentleness of the past at this moment.

-

"Princess, the prince killed Ruyue, and he said he misses those around him."

It was obvious that King Qi wanted people around him in the mansion to serve him, but there were not many concubines willing to go there, Ruyue died again, and now the few concubines are invited to go in the yard.

When the maid thought of Ruyue's tragic situation, she couldn't help feeling a little sympathetic in her heart, and she couldn't blame the concubines in the Youyi Courtyard for asking to go.

It doesn't matter that King Qi has smallpox, but now his temper is obviously wrong.

If you move, you will be furious and hurt people, and now it is directly transitioning to murder.

Listening to the maid beside her talking about the situation outside, Princess Qi frowned slightly, her eyes were full of worry and embarrassment.

She pressed her hand gently on her abdomen, if it wasn't for this unborn child, she would have gone to take care of King Qi in person.

King Qi, Princess Qi really cares, otherwise, how could she put her own life and death aside in order to give birth to an heir for King Qi? Although the education of a woman in an aristocratic family is important, it is to let her be in her husband's family. Standing firm and being able to fight for the interests of her mother's family, if the woman herself died, even if she left an heir, it would be a level worse after all.

"My lord usually has a gentle temperament, but now his temperament has changed drastically because he doesn't have a caring person to take care of him. It would have been nice if the second sister had entered the mansion at this moment. If there is a second sister here, the lord will definitely be able to receive good treatment."

Princess Qi sighed: "Second sister is still far away after all, the prince still needs someone to take care of him, those who are unwilling to go are useless even if they go, Yongwei"

Princess Qi called out the name of her confidant maid, and reached out to grab her wrist, her eyes full of expectation.

Yong Wei's heart was cold, she had a bad premonition, but she didn't dare to forcefully pull out her hand.

"My lord praised your good eyes a few days ago. I originally wanted to take you over to my lord, but it was delayed because of my lord's illness. I thought you were the person around me, and I always knew you the most. Generally speaking, it is better for you to serve the prince on my behalf, and after the prince recovers from illness, I will give you a ladyship."

"Yongwei, what do you mean? Don't worry, I won't force people, and if you don't want to, I won't force you either."

Yong Wei nodded shyly, and a smile slowly broke out on the corners of Princess Qi's lips, her pale and melancholy complexion looked better.

No matter what, you can't let the prince separate from you.

She couldn't serve King Qi, so she could only give up her closest maid.

But she didn't know that the personal maid who lowered her head had deep resentment hidden in her eyes at this moment.

A thorn was stuck here.

"Get out of the way, I'm going to see my brother-in-law."

A familiar shout came from outside.

Princess Qi frowned.

With just one sentence, Xie Jinyao has already rushed in, and the little girl behind her is Qin Xuan, the little princess of the palace.

"Sister, I heard that my brother-in-law got smallpox. What happened? My brother-in-law was fine before, did someone plot against him!"

Xie Jinyao's eyes were a little red, but Princess Qi didn't feel pitiful at all.

She thought of Xie Jinyao's frequent shots recently, and thought of the other party's thoughts, and her heart was filled with disgust for a moment.

"Yao'er, this is a matter of the palace. I know you care about the prince, but you have to pay attention to your identity."

Although Princess Qi still had a little smile on her face, her eyes were deep and there was no smile at all.

It was almost a warning to her.

Xie Jinyao's eyes became even redder, and she looked at Princess Qi in disbelief: "Sister, I just care about brother-in-law, wouldn't it be good for one more person to care about brother-in-law?"

Princess Qi felt a little stuffy in her chest: "Yao'er, you are the lady of the Shangshu family, you should pay attention to your identity."

She is already directly pointing out that Xie Jinyao's current words and deeds have crossed the line.

Xie Jinyao bit her lip and looked up at Princess Qi: "Eldest sister, how can you say that about my sister? Is it wrong for me to care about my brother-in-law? Now my brother-in-law is infected with smallpox, but my sister is here with an old god, and she still has the mind to challenge her." My sister's fault, no matter how important you are to your reputation, sister, it depends on when."

There are servants of the palace in the courtyard outside the courtyard. Xie Jinyao's words are clearly accusing Princess Qi of not caring about King Qi.

If these words are passed into King Qi's ears in the future, based on Princess Qi's understanding of King Qi, he will definitely have a grudge against her, which is absolutely not allowed by Princess Qi.

Seeing Princess Qi's extremely pale complexion, Xie Jinyao felt a burst of pleasure in her heart.

She is jealous and loathes Xie Jinhua, because Qi Wang and Qi Wangfei want Xie Jinhua to enter Qi Wangfu as a second concubine in the future, but they never consider her.

But compared to Xie Jinhua, Xie Jinyao actually hates Princess Qi even more.

Concubine Qi has occupied the position of Concubine Qi for so many years, she gave birth to a daughter for King Qi, and now she is pregnant with a son, Xie Jinyao felt a dark fire in her heart every time she took a look at the so-called dignified appearance of the other party in the posture of a princess.

"Yao'er, this is not a place for you to be presumptuous."

With a faint throbbing pain in her stomach, Princess Qi grabbed Yongwei's hand and couldn't help but exert force.

Even if she is disgusted and wary of Xie Jinyao now, she doesn't feel sorry for the other party when she asks herself. They are sisters of direct relatives. For so many years, she has taken good care of Xie Jinyao. Who would have thought that the other party would choose to provoke him at this time? she.

"Mother concubine."

The little princess who came in behind Xie Jinyao rushed over to support Princess Qi: "Mother, since the little aunt cares about the father, why not let the little aunt take care of the father, the father needs a caring person to preside over it. "

Princess Qi met her daughter with cruel eyes.

She was a little stunned, and instantly understood her daughter's thoughts in her heart, but she never thought that she would have such ruthless thoughts at such a young age.

People outside don't know, but people in the mansion are most aware of King Qi's current illness and his current temper.

At this time, if you are in front of King Qi, if you are not careful, let alone get the gratitude of King Qi, you may even lose your life.

Qin Xuan persuaded again: "Mother and concubine, everything should be based on the father's body. On weekdays, the father also likes little aunt very much. You must be like little aunt."

On one side, Xie Jinyao's eyes showed a little joy and complacency, and she looked at Qin Xuan with an extraordinarily soft gaze.

She has heard of the horror of smallpox, but she has never experienced it in real life. She heard that Xie Jinhua in the palace dared to take care of Princess Yuan'an's son. Hearing that the health of the little princess had obviously improved, Xie Jinyao felt that she was also become.

Only in adversity can one see the truth. King Qi is now sick and vulnerable, how can she give up such a good opportunity?

Princess Qi shifted her gaze from Qin Xuan to Xie Jinyao.

The young woman slowly let go of Yongwei's hand: "Yaoer, do you really want to take care of the prince? The prince's health is not good, and his temper has been a little bad recently, and you are still a young girl. Being in the same room with a man, no matter what the future holds for the prince, you will always enter the Qi palace, if you change your mind."

"Sister, I want to take care of the prince."

Xie Jinyao couldn't wait to interrupt Princess Qi's words.

The corners of her lips could not help but curl up, it was her wish to be able to enter Prince Qi's residence.

As long as he takes good care of King Qi this time, he will never be afraid of Xie Jinhua again in the future.

When something happens to Princess Qi, she will definitely become King Qi's serious princess.

The girl's eyes are full of ambition for the future.

"Since you asked for it, you can go."

Xie Jinyao had already been taken to the courtyard where King Qi recuperated, only Yong Wei and Qin Xuan were left in the house, Princess Qi slowly sat on the chair, and said to herself: "Sister, this is you I asked for it myself."

What happens in the future is what you ask for.

Don't blame me.

There was a hint of cruelty in Princess Qi's eyes.
