stern wife

Chapter 85
Emperor Chixuan took a deep breath, and then let it out slowly, as if he wanted to let out all the stagnation in his chest.

He suddenly called out:
"Zhao Shun."

"The servant is here." Zhao Shun hurriedly stepped forward.

Emperor Chixuan slowly said:

"Go to the Queen Mother and ask for two nuns. If you need them, just say I'm useful."

Zhao Shun was confused, but he responded immediately:

"Yes, the slave will do it now."

Looking at the back of Zhao Shun who hastily left with small steps, Emperor Chixuan's eyes became far-reaching and deep.

He will not harm a general guarding Xinjiang without evidence, nor will he blindly trust a person with great power.

Therefore, you must not have the heart to harm others, and you must not have the heart to guard against others...

After drinking the medicine, Pei Xiaoran fell asleep again in a drowsy state. When he woke up again, it was already dark outside, and the candles were already lit in the room.

Seeing her waking up, a little palace maid guarding the bed rushed forward and asked softly:
"Is Miss Pei hungry? Dinner has been prepared and can be delivered anytime you want."

Pei Xiaoran thought for a while, and said, "Father, have you used it?"

"My lord has already used it and is resting on the couch outside."

Pei Xiaoran nodded, and then said:

"Pass the meal, I'm hungry."

The little palace lady backed away, and Pei Xiaoran sat up with his head propped up, feeling that he still had no strength at all, and it might take a day before he had the strength to go down to the ground, so he wanted to go to the outer hall to find Pei Xingshan, and ask him to send someone back to the mansion to talk to her mother Send a message to your brothers, just say that she is staying in the palace these few days and won't go back, so they don't worry.

Unexpectedly, before her feet touched the ground, another little maid came in with a copper basin, followed by Zhao Shun.

Zhao Shun is the chief eunuch, and he needs to follow the sage at all times, but he is also worried about whether his little benefactor's condition will improve, so he begs for a favor to come and visit when the sage is taking a rest after eating up.

"Miss Pei, do you feel better?"

Zhao Shun stepped forward, saluted first, and then asked with concern.

When Pei Xiaoran saw him, his eyes lit up, and he didn't hide it when he heard the words, and said weakly:
"Still uncomfortable..."

Seeing the once lively girl now turn into such a sickly and weak look, Zhao Shun showed a bit of distress, and his voice became more judo:

"Since you're feeling uncomfortable, just lie down on the bed. The old imperial doctor is skilled in medicine. You just need to drink medicine and rest according to his instructions, and you will be fine in a few days. Remember to pay more attention to your diet in the future, and don't eat indiscriminately. You have to try it before eating it, it’s always better to be more careful, remember?”

Pei Xiaoran's heart skipped a beat, it seemed that Zhao Shun knew about her poisoning.

But looking at Pei Xingshan's reaction, it doesn't look like he knows, otherwise, as soon as he contacts the elder brother who has nothing to do, he will definitely guess that he used that poisonous rice bowl to eat, and then ask around to understand.

But he didn't come to ask, that is to say...he didn't know that the reason why he fainted was because of poisoning? !

Pei Xiaoran smiled slightly. It seems that Emperor Chixuan really became suspicious of him, and he didn't even tell him about the poisoning of his own daughter...

She looked up at Zhao Shun, nodded vigorously and said: "Remember!" Then she raised her eyebrows and said worriedly:
"But I ate well and slept well in the palace, but I don't know how my mother and brothers are doing. They saw that I didn't go back for a long time, and they might be worried about me..."

She originally wanted to go to Pei Xingshan, but Pei Xingshan might have sent someone back to the mansion to talk about it, but he would only tell the old lady, as for others...they are not qualified to ask the Duke to report his situation to them whereabouts.

Therefore, Pei Xingshan will definitely not send someone back to report to her mother and brothers that she is safe. Instead of begging him, it is better to beg Zhao Shun, at least not worrying.

Zhao Shun secretly sighed in his heart: he is really a filial child, so he comforted him:

"Miss Pei, don't worry, the servant will send someone to your house to tell the lady and the young masters that you helped the Holy Majesty find the jade pendant, and the Majesty is very happy, so he will leave you to stay in the palace for a few days. "

As expected of someone who can be the chief eunuch, this thought is really exquisite.

Pei Xiaoran pretended to be relieved, and said gratefully to Zhao Shun:
"Then there is Eunuch Lao."

"Don't dare, don't dare."

Zhao Shun turned around and wanted to go out to recruit people, but Pei Xiaoran hurriedly said:
"I still have something to tell my elder brother, but I can't tell others. If I want to write it on paper, can you bring it to my elder brother?"

Zhao Shun smiled and said: "Of course." He went to get the pen and paper himself, took the little palace maid to the door and closed the door and waited. After Pei Xiaoran shouted 'OK', he went in again.

Pei Xiaoran had already folded the paper and handed it to Zhao Shun trustingly. Zhao Shun said:

"Miss Pei, wait a moment, the servant will send someone to deliver it."

"Well, thank you."

Zhao Shun immediately went out to recruit a young eunuch, but he did not rush to hand over the paper to him. Instead, he picked up a brush from the tray where the paper and pen were placed, wrote a few lines on a piece of blank rice paper, dried it and folded it. Alright, then, together with Pei Xiaoran's piece of paper, I handed it over to the little eunuch.

The little eunuch quickly took it with both hands, and Zhao Shun said:

"You send these to the Pei Mansion in person, and hand them over to the young master of the Pei Mansion. Remember, no one can see it, including you. If there is a mistake, let us take care of you!"

The little eunuch hurriedly said: "Yes, this servant has remembered, and this servant will send it over."

Zhao Shun flicked his whisk and said, "Go."

This little eunuch was brought out by him alone, and Zhao Shun had figured out how loyal and how treacherous he was, so he trusted him to handle this matter.

And in Pei's mansion, Pei Runzhi and Pei Yuxuan were also waiting anxiously.

"It's been a day, why hasn't my sister come back?"

Pei Runzhi just came back from the big camp, and originally planned to go to his sister's place to have dinner with her after taking a bath, but who would have thought that when he went to Pei Xiaoran's yard, Pei Xiaoran hadn't come back yet? !
He could remember clearly that his younger sister left with his father in the morning, and Pei's mansion was not far from the palace, and how much effort would it take to send a jade pendant to King Li?
Sitting in the four-wheeled cart, Pei Yuxuan couldn't hide his worry on his handsome and handsome face, and murmured:

"Something must have happened, otherwise I should have come back a long time ago, brother, can you go into the palace and have a look?"

Pei Runzhi also happened to have this intention, and immediately said:

"Okay, I'll go right away. If I don't come back tomorrow morning, you can go to the old lady and ask. Father won't tell us what happened, but he won't even tell the old lady. Her place There should be clues."

"Well, brother, be careful."

"understood."
