Concubine Huang said she wanted to leave

Chapter 253 Rumors Spread
Shang Kelan nodded to Zhizi, although Zhizi was a little puzzled, why did she suddenly focus on Bai Shao?
But she still nodded and said: "The servant knows."

As she said that, she was about to retreat, but Shang Kelan was worried, and instructed again: "Be careful in everything, and don't let the people around Zhao Kehan ​​notice."

Zhi Zi nodded, and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, this servant knows it well."

As soon as the voice fell, she backed out.

And Shang Kelan looked at the cup of tea in his hand again.

Her face was reflected on the clear tea surface, and she hadn't done serious makeup for a long time, did she lose so much weight?
No wonder the eldest brother and mother couldn't help showing a sad look when they saw her last time.

Shang Kelan's eyes flickered slightly, she put the teacup back on the table, lay back on the bed and closed her eyes to rest.

After leaving Xianya Palace, Zhao Kehan ​​did not return to Ximeng Palace, but went to Changle Palace to visit Zhao Kexi.

It has been almost half a month since Zhao Kexi was confined in the palace, and it was extremely dull.

Seeing Zhao Kehan ​​coming, she happily greeted her: "Sister, you finally came to see me, you don't know, I'm so boring staying here!"

Zhao Kehan ​​glanced at her with a smile, and said, "Stay bored? Then, have you heard about what happened in Xianya Palace these days? It's so interesting!"

These words aroused Zhao Kexi's curiosity, and began to ask Zhao Kehan ​​the reason, but Zhao Kehan ​​patiently talked to her.

The gossip and rumors in the palace are only superficially suppressed by Zhizi, but secretly they are still very turbulent, and there are even signs of intensification, which have spread outside the palace.

Now everyone is saying that Concubine Chen is an ominous person, and if she gets involved with her, she will be contaminated with bad luck, so people avoid her everywhere.

Zhao Kexi was very happy when she got the news, and Zhao Kehan ​​asked her to prepare, saying that she would be exposed to grounding soon.

This was tantamount to giving Zhao Kexi a reassurance. After the relationship between the two sisters became closer, Zhao Kehan ​​returned to Ximeng Palace.

Little did they know, the news spread outside the palace, and different people had different worries.

Cabinet Bachelor, Zhang Mansion.

When Zhang Ruxue returned safely, everyone in the Zhang family was stunned. After Mr. Zhang knew what his stepmother Qin had done to Zhang Ruxue, he completely separated Zhang Ruxue from the Qin family. In order to ensure Zhang Ruxue's safety, he sent her to the west of the capital. Grandfather's house on the street.

In the yard, Li Chenxiu was teaching Zhang Ruxue how to grind herbs, and the maid Xiaoyun was talking to Zhang Ruxue.

It was naturally the news from the palace, and she sighed and said to Zhang Ruxue: "Oh, Miss, I saw at the palace banquet that day that the concubine Chen was as beautiful as a fairy, but I didn't expect it to be a beauty. Not to mention the death of the maidservant, even she has contracted a serious illness, I heard that the empress dowager is not letting her majesty go to the Xianya Palace now, the concubine Chen is so pitiful!"

An ominous person can put anyone to death.

Li Chenxiu was loading the medicinal materials. Hearing this, his pupils shrank slightly and his movements stopped.

He subconsciously looked at Xiaoyun, frowned and asked, "Concubine Chen is very ill? Didn't the imperial doctor go to see her?"

Xiaoyun thought for a while, shook her head, and said: "This servant doesn't know, I only heard that Concubine Chen doesn't trust those imperial physicians, and only takes the medicine prescribed by the nurse around her, so she is not in good health until now."

Zhang Ruxue saw that Li Chenxiu's face looked ugly, so she couldn't help sighing, handed the medicinal materials to Xiao Yun, and said, "Stop talking, help me send these medicinal materials to Zhang's mansion and give them to my father, he has a bad voice. These herbs are just right for him."

"Oh."

Xiaoyun nodded in confusion, wondering if she had said something wrong, but she still left with the medicinal materials.

After she left, the yard was empty.

Zhang Ruxue hesitated for a moment, and then said comfortingly: "Mr. Li, you don't have to worry too much. Since the medical girl is trusted by the concubine Chen, she must be extremely skilled in medicine, right?"

Zhiqiu's medical skills are indeed good, but compared with her own, they are far behind.

However, it was almost impossible for him to return to the palace, so he could only worry outside the palace, but it was useless.

Li Chenxiu pursed his lips, put down the medicinal materials, and lowered his eyes and said, "I know, Miss Zhang, I have something to do, so I'll go out and come back later."

As soon as the words fell, Li Chenxiu walked out.

Looking at his leaving back, Zhang Ruxue couldn't help shaking her head.

Zuo Xiangfu.

In the lobby, Shang Kelin and his mother were sitting opposite each other, and Chen Yetan was standing behind Shang Kelin. The two looked worried, and one of them was doing nothing.

At this time, Prime Minister Zuo hurried in. He took off his official hat, took out a few memorials from his pocket, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said, "These are the memorials I stopped."

Shang Kelin's eyes were slightly dazed, and then he smiled in disbelief: "Father, you would actually do something like that?"

Zuo Xiang glared at him angrily, and said: "You heartless guy, you are still Big Brother Lan'er, but you don't even know your sister's current situation, these memorials are all about abolishing the imperial concubine content."

As he spoke, he paused for a while before continuing: "Think about it with your pig brain, what will happen to your sister if these papers are presented to His Majesty? For the sake of the overall situation, even if His Majesty does not abolish Lan'er, he will Would you demote Lan'er's concubine? The women in the harem hold high and step down, when the late emperor was around, you all know how messy his harem was."

Prime Minister Zuo had a foresight, and when he was handling government affairs in the Central Council, he noticed something was wrong when he heard the palace people talking, and then looked through some memorials, and found that someone really wanted to harm Lan'er.

After all, behind Shang Kelan is the entire Zuoxiang Mansion.

Shang Kelin listened to Prime Minister Zuo's words, and said indifferently: "No way? I think His Majesty dotes on his younger sister, how could he do such a thing? If you didn't trust Your Majesty back then, how could you treat Lan Er marry him?"

At the beginning, he only asked Lan'er's opinion, but for the survival of the whole family, he married Lan'er to Jin Yantang as his wife, without taking Lan'er's wishes into consideration.

Lan'er is able to have what she is today, thanks to Zuo Xiang's contribution.

When Shang Kelin said this, he also intentionally displeased his father.

Sure enough, Zuo Xiang groaned, Shangmu gave him an ugly look, and then said: "You don't care about Lan Er, I care, I will go to the palace to take care of Lan Er, those women don't want to hurt her at all!"

Shang Kelin stopped him and said, "Mother, if you go at this time, if others don't know about it, they think that our Zuoxiang Mansion doesn't give His Majesty a face, and reprimands His Majesty for not taking good care of Lan'er. What will outsiders say about us?"

But as soon as the words fell, he smiled again and said: "So, let me go, I have a thick skin, and I am not afraid to say it."

Behind him, Chen Yetan couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth and rolled his eyes at him.

Zuo Xiang thought for a moment, then said: "Alright, you are stupid, Your Majesty won't be suspicious of you."

So it was decided that Shang Kelin would visit Shang Kelan.

At this time, the servant came to report: "Qi report to the master, there is a man named Li Chenxiu outside the door, begging to see the master!"
