Reborn Concubine Queen

Chapter 122
Jianliu, who was taking care of Shi Yiqing's grooming and dressing, said with a worried face: "Miss hasn't had a good rest these days, and her face is a little pale."

Shi Yiqing forced a smile and said, "It's not as serious as you said, but it's just a nightmare."

Mo Xian, who was looking for Nanny Xu, walked quickly to the inner room, and saw Shi Yiqing was dressing up, with a troubled expression on his face, hesitating to speak, and Shi Yiqing saw him, so he hesitated to go forward.

"Didn't I tell you to look for Mother Xu? But you found it?"

Mo Xian carefully looked at Shi Yiqing's face, and said softly: "Madam Xu was indeed summoned by the old lady last night. Later in the night, the old lady left Madam Xu in Chunhui Hall. I don't know what happened last night. It's not that I've caught a cold, but now I have a fever, and my sanity is not clear."

"Okay, why did you catch a cold?" Shi Yiqing frowned and looked at Mo Xian, "Is there something else you are hiding from me?"

Mo Xian secretly glanced at the girls in the room who were coming and going, but refused to say a word.Seeing it, Shi Yiqing turned dark and waved his hands, letting Jianliu lead them all back down, and then said in a deep voice: "There are no outsiders here, so we can talk about it."

"The servant is not doing this because he thinks that our mansion has eyes and ears, it's just that what the servant says after a while, I'm afraid it won't be pleasant to hear from the young lady."

Noticing Shi Yiqing's impatient expression, Mo Xian hurriedly stepped forward and lowered his voice and said, "Your servant came out of Chunhui Hall just now, and I heard all the maids in Chunhui Hall talking about it, saying that the old lady's face was very ugly last night, so she forcibly left Madam Xu behind." Mama is in the west ear room of Chunhui Hall. Some people say that Mama Xu is old and not in good health, but she is still strong after all. How could she become seriously ill overnight, and now she can't even sense her consciousness? Clearly, it looks like someone intentionally harmed you."

Shi Yiqing sneered with a cold face: "Mother Xu is just my concubine nanny, even if she is in someone's eyes, she is still under her grandmother's nose, who would be so stupid as to embarrass a nanny who is about to leave the house?" Mama?"

She paused, glanced at Mo Xian, and said, "It's okay to get through this, don't say it outside."

Mo Xian leaned over and responded.Shi Yiqing turned his eyes to look at his indifferent face in the bronze mirror, and said slowly: "I'm going to pay my respects to grandma, you called Jian Liu and Fang Fei to come in and serve her."

When Shi Yiqing dressed up and went out of Baifang Garden to Chunhui Hall, he walked in front of a fallen plum tree, Shi Xuanxin was wearing a rose-colored cloak and Shi Shiran stood in front of Shi Yiqing.

"Hey, who am I supposed to be? It turns out to be the fourth sister."

Shi Yiqing looked at her with a smile that was not a smile, and said softly: "Qing'er can't afford to be a sixth sister, a fourth sister, there are differences in our family, that's what my grandmother said, Qing'er dare not be as bold as my sister, Public defiance."

Shi Xuanxin lowered his eyes and sneered: "My sister really has a mouthful, but I don't know that my sister is not holding the Xiao family by the thread of Madam Xu, so your wings are still hard!"

Shi Yiqing's eyelids twitched, and he looked at Shi Xuanxin with cold eyes, and immediately smiled, and said slowly: "My sister's news is so sensitive, I don't think it's too clean to be around grandma."

Shi Xuanxin knew that he was about to say the wrong thing, and he wanted to use his words to overwhelm Shi Yiqing and beat her arrogance, but he never thought that he would reveal his trump card.

She couldn't help laughing in panic, and hurriedly said: "My sister is not only clever, but now she can even make up this out of thin air. I don't know if I learned the skill at my uncle's house. When my uncle comes in a few days, I have to take care of it." Ask."

After finishing speaking, Shi Xuanxin didn't give Shi Yiqing a chance to refute, turned around and left while shaking his skirt, and led the girl to Chunhui Hall quickly, as if something was chasing her impatiently behind her.

Shi Yiqing turned cold on the false smile on his face, and lowered his eyes with a complicated expression, a sense of uneasiness rose from his heart, entrenched in his heart.

"It's so cold, why is my sister standing here?"

Following the soft voice of the waiter, she called softly: "Fifth Miss, Seventh Miss."

Shi Yiqing calmed down her emotions, then turned around and smiled to see Shi Fuhao and Shi Fuyu who were chasing up: "Why didn't you see Eighth Sister?"

Shi Fu laughed and said: "That little girl is the most lazy, and now she lives far away, I'm afraid she will arrive one step later than us."

Shi Fuyu stepped forward to hold Shi Yiqing's arm, carefully scrutinized her expression, and said worriedly: "Qing'er, I think you don't look very well, but you didn't sleep well last night?"

Shi Yiqing smiled wryly, and said, "I had a nightmare all night." He paused, seeing the guilty look on Shi Fuyu's face, and hurriedly continued, "This has nothing to do with my sister, it's just that Qing'er's nanny, Madam Xu, stayed overnight. She didn’t return, but later found out that she was staying at the grandmother’s place, she was careless last night, causing her to have a high fever, and now she is about to pay her respects to the grandmother, so I stopped by to see her.”

Everyone in Shi's family knew what Madam Xu meant to Shi Yiqing, and Shi's wife, Shi Fuyu and sisters couldn't help but straighten their expressions, and a group of three hurried into Chunhui Hall to invite Mrs. Meng After a while, each sat down.

The old lady, Mrs. Meng, was wearing an ermine Zhaojun cover, and she was leaning on the soft couch with a sleepy expression. When she saw Shi Yiqing coming, she raised her hand to beckon her over, and said weakly, "I think you also know that Mother Xu is ill. You better go and see her."

Shi Yiqing looked at the old lady's expression carefully, and said worriedly: "Grandmother, Qing'er doesn't look too good looking at you, but is she also sick?"

Zhu Xi, who was waiting on the side, served the old lady after drinking the soup, and said sadly: "Returning to Miss Jiu, it's not because I was careless last night, but because Mother Xu was critically ill last night, and the little girls didn't know what to do. The yelling started, and the old lady was startled, and then she fell ill."

Shi Xuanxin, who was sitting upright on the small table, was clearly concerned, but said sarcastically in secret: "Ninth sister is really, knowing that grandma is weak, and letting Madam Xu come here to beg for mercy, isn't it tiring grandma?" .”

Everyone present had mixed expressions, but they also knew that Shi Xuanxin's words were very vitriolic, and every sentence wanted to pour dirty water on Shi Yiqing.

Shi Yiqing's expression did not change, but he was sincerely worried about the old lady, and said in a sobbing voice: "Grandmother, all of this is Qing'er's fault, Qing'er should have sent someone to take Mother Xu back long ago, and shouldn't be angry here Passed it to grandma."

The old lady covered the corner of her mouth with a towel and coughed twice, then waved her hand with a pale face, and said, "This is none of your business. Forget it, you'd better go and see your nanny, she has been prescribed by Imperial Physician Liu now." Although the medicine is much better, you are still insane.” At this point, the voice paused, and he continued to the crowd, “You guys should go back too, you don’t need to stay with me.”

Shi Fuyu is the most filial, unwilling to leave, and said stubbornly: "Yu'er wants to stay here to accompany grandma to relieve boredom."

Now the old lady loves Shi Fuyu the most. Hearing this, a smile appeared on her morbid expression, she took Shi Fuyu's hand and said, "I know you have filial piety towards me, an old woman, but after you She is someone who is going to marry into the royal family, so there can be no accidents at this time. Good girl, if you don't want to go back to the garden, follow your sister to see Aunt Mo."

When Shi Fuyu heard this, she reluctantly followed Shi Fuhao out of Chunhui Hall and went to Aunt Mo's residence.Seeing that the old lady didn't blame Shi Yiqing, Shi Xuanxin couldn't help being a little disappointed, tangled in the handkerchief in his hand, angrily left Chunhui Hall, and went to Yang Lianxiang's Ningxie Hall.

Now that Yang Lianxiang has fallen out of favor in front of the old lady, she has also lost the right to be the housekeeper of the third room. Today I took a sick leave and hid in the warm pavilion and didn't go out.

When Shi Xuanxin broke in through the curtain, the girl Sui'er was serving Yang Lianxiang and drinking the soup. She walked quickly to the soft couch and sat down, her face darkened and she didn't speak.

Yang Lianxiang beckoned to the maid who was waiting for Shi Xuanxin, and when she learned that she had just returned from the old lady's side, she began to worry, and looked at Shi Xuanxin and said comfortingly: "You are the baby on my heart, then Why bother to care about the screwdriver or what you say, and be careful not to get angry. As for those who provoke you, don't worry, with me, not only will no one dare to go past you, even what they owe us, we will Get it back twice as much!"

Shi Xuanxin couldn't help being overjoyed when he heard this, and hastily stepped forward and asked, "What good idea does mother have?"

Yang Lianxiang smiled with cold eyes: "Don't worry, since they don't want our mother and daughter to have a good time, I won't let them be comfortable. Xin'er, you, just stay in your Qionghua Pavilion When you get married, Mother will always find a way to let you reach the sky in one step!"

Shi Xuanxin became more and more joyful, his face was full of red and he wanted to speak, his cheeks blushed hesitantly, and he was struggling with the scarf like a little girl: "Mother, Xin'er... Xin'er..."

Yang Lianxiang stopped Shi Xuanxin with a loving face, and said softly: "You are so careful, how could mother not know? Don't worry, King Qi is very popular, but he is deeply liked by the emperor. In the future, even if you don't succeed to the throne, you can still be a prince with power in your hands. If you marry me, your mother and your brother will be relieved!"

With Yang Lianxiang's guarantee, Shi Xuanxin became more and more shy, very satisfied with the arrangement, so he covered the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief and smiled foolishly.She was about to say something intimate to Yang Lianxiang, but when she turned her eyes and saw Yang Lianxiang's expression, she began to scrutinize her carefully, and exclaimed in a low voice, "Mother, why is your face so ugly? But did you not rest last night? "

Yang Lianxiang let out a deep sigh with her eyes downcast, and said slowly, "Mother, it's nothing serious, it's just that the old problem has recurred."

Seeing that Shi Xuanxin was about to ask in detail, Yang Lianxiang became a little impatient, but said with a smile: "Xin'er, don't worry, your mother will definitely take care of your lifelong affairs, so you can go back with peace of mind and take care of yourself." Aunt Mo should learn etiquette, or embroider your wedding dress in advance, so as not to be in a hurry."

Shi Xuanxin knew that it was Yang Lianxiang who didn't want to stay by her side anymore, so he retreated obediently, walked around the corridor to the ear room, but stood still.The little girl serving by her side looked at Shi Xuanxin suspiciously, and when she was about to speak, she saw Shi Xuanxin put her fingers upright on her mouth, and said threateningly: "Don't make it public! If you dare to speak out about today's matter , No matter who you tell it to, see how I deal with you."

The little girl was so frightened that her heart jumped, she quickly lowered her head and responded softly.

Shi Xuanxin glanced sideways at Sui'er who came out from the room through the curtain, and said to the little girl: "You, you go and call Sui'er to the ear room. Don't disturb Madam, understand?"

The little girl trembled from Shi Xuanxin's fright, nodded stiffly, and turned to look for Sui'er who had gone to the small kitchen.Sui'er followed the little girl to the ear room, saw that it was Shi Xuanxin, and couldn't help being surprised: "Why are you sitting here, miss?"

Shi Xuanxin held the tea bowl and looked at Sui'er with a half-smile: "Have you been with mother for a long time?"

Sui'er only felt her eyelids twitch, and quickly blessed her body with a smile: "Miss has a good memory, so naturally she knows that slaves have served Madam for many years."

Shi Xuanxin took a sip of his tea, and said slowly: "I still remember that you were just a rough girl next to your mother, and later you were promoted to a third-class maid by your mother, don't you?"

She paused, and then said: "For so many years, you have worked hard by your mother's side, and my mother understands in her heart, and she will mention it to you when she thinks about coming here in a few days."

As she said that, she sighed: "There is a shortage of manpower around my mother. I think you can enjoy yourself by your mother's side now, and you are very loyal. It is not impossible to become a big girl by your mother's side soon."

Sui'er heard her heart beating like a thunderbolt, and became more and more uneasy. She hurriedly hid it with a smile, bowed and said: "Thank you for your praise, my servant is just doing my duty as a servant."

Shi Xuanxin nodded while holding the towel, then said with a smile: "You don't have to be so nervous, I won't eat you."

Saying that, she got up and walked in front of Sui'er, and looked at her tentatively: "Actually, I didn't mean anything else by calling you here today, I just wanted to ask, what's wrong with mother today? Why is her face so pale?" Ugly?"

Sui'er rolled her eyes and said respectfully: "The lady is the master, and the servant is the servant. The servant only wants to be able to serve the master with peace of mind. The slave does not know anything about the master, and does not know."

Shi Xuanxin's nose was touched, and he became annoyed. With a sneer, he threw his sleeves and went back to the chair, and said angrily, "You still know that you are a servant? I still think you are the master." Don’t forget, I’m my mother’s own daughter, the daughter of the third wife, what a noble status?! You are just a servant, and I’ll be ashamed to say one more word to you! Now I give you This opportunity, if you don't know what's good or bad...huh!"

Sui'er's heart faltered, she hurriedly knelt on the ground, bent over and kowtowed: "Miss, miss! This servant is loyal to Madam and you, and has no other intentions!"

Sui'er, who has been by Yang Lianxiang's side for many years, doesn't know Yang Lianxiang's methods, and Shi Xuanxin's ruthlessness. Now that she hears this, she can't help but feel frightened, thinking about the fate of Yang Lianxiang's nanny Gao Nanny, and thinking of her companion The people around Yang Lianxiang didn't end well, they became more and more frightened, their hands and feet softened, and they collapsed on the ground, as if half of their lives had been lost.

Shi Xuanxin covered his mouth and nose with a handkerchief, raised his eyebrows in disdain, and said in a cold voice: "It's really useless, but I just said a few words to you, and you just act like this, and others just treat me like that." What happened to you?"

As he said that, he turned sideways to let the little girl who was serving beside him come forward, and continued: "You, you go to the kitchen to bring a basin of water, splash her awake, and then ask, is she recruiting or not?!"

The little girl was terrified by Shi Xuanxin's cruelty, she stepped forward timidly, and persuaded hesitantly: "But, but miss, this is a world of ice and snow, sister Sui'er will freeze to death!"

Shi Xuanxin squinted at the little girl, and said in a hateful voice: "I tell you to go and you go! Such a servant, what do you want her to do, you might as well die!"

Sui'er, who was half asleep and half awake, couldn't help but feel a chill when she heard this, thinking that she was going to die here eventually, and thinking about the old parents who were serving outside the house, she became more and more unwilling, her half-opened eyes flashed A cold light.

Sui'er struggled to wake up from the cold ground, and smiled brightly with the corners of her lips curled up. The smile was indescribably weird: "Miss, don't be angry, the life of a servant is cheap, and death is not a pity, but nowadays there are few caring people around Madam." I am a human being, but I beg the young lady to hold her hands high and let the servants serve the lady for a few days first, and then come to apologize to the young lady."

The little maid waiting beside Shi Xuanxin saw the smile on Sui'er's cheek, and couldn't help being startled, subconsciously lowered her head, as if she didn't see anything.

Seeing Sui'er woke up, Shi Xuanxin snorted and said coldly, "He who knows current affairs is a hero, as long as you tell me about your wife honestly, I will spare your dog's life! Let me ask you, what happened to my mother? Don't try to hide it from me, it's better to tell me quickly!"

Sui'er licked her face and said with a smile: "Miss is the person on Madam's heart, Madam will tell Madam what she has in mind, the servants concentrate on serving Madam, but they don't dare to speculate on Madam's thoughts. "

After a pause, seeing Shi Xuanxin's expression getting more and more annoyed, he changed the subject and pretended to hesitate and said, "It's just that madam hasn't slept well recently, if the master is here..."

Shi Xuanxin twitched his brows, and hurriedly asked: "You mean, father hasn't rested in Tangli Courtyard these days? Then where did he go?"

Sui'er pretended to be timid and unable to speak, hurriedly Shi Xuanxin stepped forward and kicked on the shoulder, the pain spread along the cold bone marrow, piercing to the bottom of his heart.

"You bitch, tell me quickly, where has father been these days?"
