Harem Empress

Chapter 99
"Don't ask, knowing too much is not good for you." Concubine Kang refused to answer, sitting there and refusing.

At this time, the palace people also came in with a hot dinner. Since Concubine Kang was seriously ill and could not eat greasy food, all the meals were mainly light vegetarian dishes. In the concubine's dish, said: "Let my younger sister prepare vegetables for my elder sister herself!"

Concubine Kang didn't say anything but satisfactorily savored every mouthful of food I put in for her. We didn't speak during the meal, but exchanged every word during the meal with mutual trusting eyes.

After dinner, after a while, Chanjuan came in with a cough medicine. The thick black silk medicine exuded a pungent smell. When Concubine Kang picked it up and wanted to drink it, I snatched it away. Looking at Concubine Kang who was a little surprised in front of her eyes, she said bitterly: "You know it's useless to eat this bitter medicine, why do you force yourself to drink it?"

"You won't understand!" As I said that, I wanted to snatch the medicine bowl in my hand, tugged and pulled it, and the medicine bowl in my hand fell to the ground, and the black thick juice smudged the white marble under my feet, and Concubine Kang was slightly angry Looking at me anxiously, she ordered Chanjuan who was beside her and said, "Go cook another bowl for Ben Gong!"

As soon as Chanjuan left, Emperor Jingyang walked in and broke the deadlock. Fu bowed down and said, "My concubine pays my respects to the emperor. Your majesty is auspicious!"

"Well, what were you doing just now? Did I hear you from outside?" Emperor Jingyang asked casually while sitting on the window beside him.

"It's nothing, it was the concubine who accidentally knocked over the medicine bowl, sister Dangui is just in a hurry!" Concubine Kang lay back on the bed and explained casually.

"Well, you are in poor health, so don't do these things, you can just let Chanjuan feed you, it's important to rest assured!" Emperor Jingyang looked at Concubine Kang on the couch with concern, and said with some complaints.

"Yes, the concubine must be careful in the future!" Concubine Kang said in a low voice.

"Concubine Dan, let's go back first, I want to stay alone with Concubine Kang for a while!" Emperor Jingyang said expressionlessly.

Fu lowered his body and said, "Yes, the concubine is resigning. Sister Concubine Kang will come to visit me tomorrow!"

Walking out of Laofei Hall, I looked up at the bright moon in the sky, the moonlight shone softly on the bluestone road, occasionally a ray of autumn wind blew the candlelight in the lantern flickering back and forth, the single shadow under the moon only lasted for a long time and for a short time, like a mischievous Your child is playing hide-and-seek with you, Emperor Jingyang must have Concubine Kang in his heart, maybe he just couldn't get away to visit because of the busy affairs of the previous court!
In the Danzhi Palace, the lights were brightly lit, seeing me coming in, An Guoshun ran over and said anxiously: "Your Majesty, you are back, something is wrong, something serious happened, an assassin came to the palace."

With a serious look on his face, he said, "When did it happen? Why doesn't this palace know!" He walked into the main hall quickly.

"Just now." An Guoshun replied in a low voice.

At this time, thinking of Emperor Jingyang who was in Laofei Palace just now, it seemed that nothing had happened!Since most of the assassins who came to the palace were aimed at Emperor Jingyang, but just now, Emperor Jingyang showed a laid-back attitude, which did not look like he had fought at all!Glancing at An Guoshun below, he said, "The assassin has been caught!"

"No, I heard that the emperor had finished discussing with Mr. Zuo in the imperial study. As soon as Mr. Zuo left, a little eunuch who brought tea came in. He just walked to the desk and did not wait for the Lord Long Live to react. Go, fortunately, Long Live Lord has some kung fu and is fine, but he still ran away, and it is estimated that the Danzhi Palace will be found in a while!" An Guoshun replied.

"Take someone to search Danzhi Palace carefully in advance to see if there are any unfamiliar people! Then watch this matter carefully, and report immediately if there is any movement!" Instructed Anguo to stop by.

The palace is heavily guarded, how could an assassin intrude inexplicably, ordinarily it was Tu Dehai's errand to deliver tea to the emperor, why would a young eunuch with a face suddenly appear!This incident should have been premeditated, and Tu Dehai might not be able to escape, no wonder he didn't see Tu Dehai just now, probably he is being punished!
Sure enough, after half an hour, a large group of guards rushed into Danzhi Palace. It was the second time to search the palace, but this time it was different from the last time. It was an assassin, sitting leisurely on the window couch drinking the tea on the case table, they began to search in several ways, and after a while they all left without finding anything.

The next day, rumors of the assassination of Emperor Jingyang last night were spread everywhere in the palace. Concubine Jin sat there and kept touching her chest, pretending to be afraid and said, "Fortunately, the emperor has the blessing of his ancestors to escape this incident." Jie! I will go to Baohua Hall to pray for the emperor later!"

On the opposite side, Concubine Yuan, who was wearing a royal blue brocade embroidered with a bird-watching fairy dress, sniffed her nose in disdain, and said charmingly: "Long Live Lord is the body of Wan Sheng, how could those little thieves be able to get close, The bad luck of the broom star can be blocked, let alone a little thief!"

Although Concubine Yuan's words didn't directly say that Concubine Jin was unlucky, everyone could tell that she was satirizing Concubine Jin for being reincarnated as a broom star. Concubine Jin, whose face was all green, stared at her almond-shaped eyes as big as eggs, wishing she could kill Concubine Yuan opposite with her own eyes, and her two tender hands, like water onions, held each other firmly with the strength to crush someone.

"Enough! You're just going to say these sarcastic remarks here. Concubine Jin even has the heart to go to Baohua Palace to pray for the emperor, but you, you know how to deal with these trivial matters all day long!" Queen Feng, who was sitting on Feng, With a raised eye, he scolded severely.He glanced at the concubines present, and said angrily: "Later, I will go to Baohua Palace to pray for the emperor. If you are willing to go, you can go together. If you don't want to go, just leave!"

All the concubines in the palace lowered their heads and said nothing, even the concubine Yuan who was arrogant just now lost her arrogance. After all, the one Feng sat on was the empress of the palace. How could a concubine dare to disobey her? !Hearing that the queen's words were clearly aimed at herself, Concubine Jin had a triumphant smile on her face, and said in a flattering voice: "Empress, my concubine copied some scriptures overnight and took them together later. Burn it!" As she spoke, she took out a thick stack of paper from Dongmei's hand behind her, on which Junxiu's handwriting could be vaguely seen, Concubine Jin really worked hard for today's limelight!

"Well, it's hard for you to have a heart!" The queen looked at Concubine Jin at the side gracefully, and said gently.

The sandalwood in Baohua Hall curls up, the bright yellow curtains are hung high, there are some soft cushions for kneeling in the hall, various offerings are placed on the tall incense table, and there is a big bronze tripod in the middle. The high incense inside was burning faintly. The queen stood at the front with her hands clasped together, and said softly: "May my Buddha bless my emperor with good health, turn bad luck into good luck, keep my country in good weather, and the people are happy!"
