late Qing Dynasty

Chapter 20
"Heh, it's a lively night, come in and comb Ai's hair!"

Lan'er glanced at Mei Shuang with a calm expression.

"Master Tang, thank you for coming to explain Ai's dream at night, go back and rest."

I ignored Lan Er, but supported Mei Shuang on the ground, and shouted at Xiao Die at the door.

"Let the imperial physician in! Hurry up!"

Xiao Die didn't respond, but looked at Lan'er. She saw Lan'er nodding, so she went out and invited the imperial doctor in.

Lan'er didn't dress up, but put on a big cloak, and sat on the side of the bed sleepily.

"Let Sushun come in too!"

The imperial doctor came in first, and I called him aside to treat Mei Shuang's wounds, and then Sushun's voice came in.

"I heard that the queen mother passed on the imperial physician, so I wonder if it's because the phoenix body violates harmony."

Sushun walked in with big strides, and slightly saluted Lan'er.

Sushun has always been domineering, but he didn't expect to be so domineering, breaking into the Queen Mother's bedroom late at night.

Maybe it's because of Emperor Xianfeng's dragon controlling Bintian, or some other unknown secret.

"It's not that Ai's family is sick, it's this court lady who accidentally hit the teapot!"

Lan'er closed her eyes slightly and didn't look at Sushun, while I stood aside and remained calm.

"Heh, at this hour, why is Mr. Tang here!"

Sushun looked at me with a mocking look on his face.

"The Empress Dowager was awakened by a nightmare in the middle of the night, and specially summoned the minister to interpret the dream."

I gave a high-sounding answer, I know that Sushun can't hold back anymore, he will definitely not let it go today.

"Oh? It turns out that Master Tang can interpret dreams! The king happened to have a dream tonight. Master Tang will explain it to you and what it means!"

"My lord, please speak."

"In this king's dream, a little worm stopped in front of my carriage, trying to block my way, but I was chased into several sections by this king. Master Tang, tell me, what is the meaning of this?" .”

I know that Sushun is secretly scolding us for overthinking our capabilities and bringing about our own destruction.

However, only I know that he is not far from death.

"My lord crushed the snake in my dream to death, I guess it's going to be bad luck."

I was serious, without any hint of sarcasm or joking.

"You are so brave! How dare you curse this king!" Sushun immediately turned his face, wishing to beat me up immediately.

"Sushun, listen to Master Tang first, the Ai family is curious, why is Lord Sushun so unlucky!"

Lan'er has opened her eyes at this moment, looking at me with great interest.

"When you go back to the Queen Mother, as the saying goes, a strong dragon does not overwhelm a local snake, and Lord Sushun is in his territory. If he kills someone else, he will not be in bad luck!"

I glanced at Sushun, and saw that his face was blushing, probably because I didn't expect that I would be so useless.

"Well said! People, you should understand your identity and don't do anything out of line, otherwise, you will die without a place to bury yourself!"

Lan'er yawned and waved at us, "If there's nothing wrong, let's all kneel down, Ai's family is sleepy right now!"

"Wei Chen retire."

I saluted Lan'er, then turned around and left her room, and Sushun came out right behind me.

"Tang Zhongzheng, you'd better keep your eyes open, otherwise, this king will definitely let you die without a place to bury you!"

Sushun snorted coldly at me twice, and before I could answer him, he had already walked away.

Sushun was supposed to catch Mei Shuang today, but he didn't expect that he came a step late and was ridiculed by me again, so he must have died of anger.

I went back to my room, not feeling sleepy at all, Mei Shuang was so seriously injured, I don't know what's going on now, whether her life will be in danger.

I sat by the bed and thought about the whole thing carefully. I felt that there must be another force in this summer resort that I didn't know about.

As for who it is, Lan'er should know in her heart.

However, now that we have offended Sushun, we must be more careful. I don't have a trump card in my hand now, and I really don't know what to do.

I think, at this time, what I have to do is to grasp Sushun's tricks, what kind of tricks will he have...

When the sun rose, I couldn't wait to go to Lan'er's bedroom.

"I want to see how that girl Mei Shuang is doing!"

Lan'er saw through my thoughts completely, and said it without any concealment.

"How is she?"

I am frank, Mei Shuang saved my life after all, I cannot abandon her.

"She can't die, but you, you have to ask for blessings!"

As soon as Lan'er finished speaking, the little maid Xiaodie walked in.

"My queen, breakfast is ready."

"Forget it, Master Tang, let's have breakfast together!"

Lan'er stood up and walked outside, and I also stood up and followed behind her.

"Since Mei Shuang is fine, I will take my leave first."

I don't want to stay here for a long time, I'm going to find out about Sushun, at least, so that he doesn't dare to touch me now.

"Why, you came here so early in the morning just because of that girl Mei Shuang!"

Lan'er had a smile on her face, but her eyes were cold.

"Queen, I still have some important things to do, so I will take my leave first!"

I didn't explain too much, because I didn't want too many people to know, and instead put everyone in danger. If I didn't find Sushun's handle, I didn't want Lan'er to be disappointed.

"Important thing? It's not going to deal with the aftermath of that girl!"

Lan'er snorted coldly, and the smile on her face finally disappeared. I knew that this was a sign of her anger.

"Lan'er, you know, Mei Shuang once saved my life, it's only natural for me to care about her, but I really have something to do."

I'm worried that Lan'er will do something outrageous to Mei Shuang in a fit of anger.

Lan'er is certainly smart and wise, but this woman is too strong, and I feel that I may not be able to control her. If she still insists on going her own way in the future, won't my country still become a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society.

For this reason, it is time for me to plan ahead.

"Go, just be careful not to be decapitated by Sushun." Lan'er sat at the table and began to savor the hearty breakfast.

"Will not."

I responded and walked out.

I walked on the winding path of the Mountain Resort, not far from the deer enclosure, where eunuchs and maids were feeding the deer.

I looked at the deer in the pen, suddenly became interested, and walked over there, but before I walked a few steps, a hand suddenly appeared in the grass, and I pulled it in.
