Chapter 517: Deep Palace Plot, Beauty Plot(1/2)
I saw Shen Rou slowly walking out from the crowd, with a pair of charming eyes, looking at me coldly.
I frowned slightly. It’s not that I didn’t know what I was going to face in these ten days, but the Empress’s chariot had just disappeared from sight, and she was about to attack? It was too fast.
So I turned around to face her and said calmly: "I wonder if the imperial concubine has any other instructions?"
Shen Rou slowly walked up to me and looked into my eyes.
The grudge between me and her is so deeply involved that even if not all the people around me know the details, everyone in the harem also understands that at this moment, everyone is looking at me with bated breath, some of them are panicked.
There were many spectators on the wall, some even sneered and watched the show like Nangong Lizhu.
At this time, Shen Rou was heard saying: "I'm not talking about you."
"..."
I was slightly startled, but then I saw her turning to look at Shui Xiu beside me. Shui Xiu was startled, and then she bowed her head respectfully and said, "Your Majesty, what are your orders?"
Shen Rou sneered and said, "Ding Jieyu, don't you have something to do and want to catch up with this girl?"
Yuwen, who had been standing behind her, walked up, looked at Shuixiu coldly, and sneered: "Miss Shuixiu, you are fine."
Shui Xiu looked at her, with a trace of disdain in her eyes, but she still said respectfully: "Jieyu has been promoted to such a high degree, I haven't had time to congratulate Jieyu yet, please forgive me."
"That's easy to say. Since we sisters haven't seen each other for so long, why don't you go to my Saitama Hall today and let's have a good chat and reminisce about old times."
When Shui Xiu heard this, her face stiffened.
Although she and Yuwen don't have the same grudges as I do with Shen Rou and Nangong Lizhu, people like Yuwen are not good friends in the first place. They are insidious and cunning and must be punished. When Shuixiu put rats in her house, she was killed by Xu Youling.
She must still be worried about being punished by being forced to kneel in the yard. Now that she is Jieyu, it is easy to deal with Shuixiu.
However, she is now asking for Shuixiu in a high-sounding way, but she cannot refuse.
I frowned and looked at them. Shuixiu also glanced at me and gritted her teeth: "Okay, I will obey my orders."
After saying that, she followed Yuwen away. I felt a little uneasy. I was about to take a step forward, but when I saw Shen Rou and Nangong Lizhu in front of me, I bit my lower lip and said nothing. They both also sneered.
Without saying anything, he walked past me coldly with a smile that looked like he had finished watching the show.
The people around me murmured in secret, looked at me, and backed away one after another, as if getting closer to me would bring bad luck to me, so they all turned and left.
I stood there and watched Shui Xiu's retreating back, silently clenching my fists - to them, Shui Xiu was like a little ant on the soles of their feet, life and death could only be raised with a hand; let Yuwen take care of it.
The water show is just for me to see.
And this is just the beginning of these ten days.
It was not until the afternoon that Shui Xiucai limped back. As soon as she entered the door, Nanny Wu hurriedly greeted her and helped her sit down at the table.
Fortunately, although her face was a little pale, she did not look injured.
"That damn vicious woman will one day give birth to a daughter that no one wants!" She slowly sat down and murmured. When she heard her words, Grandma Wu, who was originally very worried, couldn't help it.
He laughed and said, "Girl, what are you talking about?"
Shuixiu scolded: "Looking at her, she can't give birth to a son, and she can't get married even if she gives birth to a daughter. She will stay in the imperial city as an old aunt for the rest of her life."
This time, I couldn't help but laugh. This girl was still the same as before, her mouth was not forgiving at all.
Even though she scolded her, Grandma Wu still carefully helped her roll up her skirt. I saw that her knees were red and swollen, and her skin was about to break and bleed in many places. I frowned suddenly.
Shui Xiu waved her hand: "It's okay, she didn't hit me, she just kept me kneeling."
I blew it on her carefully, applied medicine to her together with Aunt Wu, and carefully bandaged it with cotton cloth. She hissed in pain and sucked in air conditioning. After the bandage was finished, I asked Aunt Wu to get some.
Bu made a knee pad for her, and then Mother Wu nodded and went down. I gently stroked Shuixiu's shoulder: "Are you feeling better?"
"Don't worry, girl, it's okay."
"..."
"She said that I would have to go there tomorrow."
"..."
"But I'm not afraid of her. I'm not her slave now. She can punish me like this, but can she beat me to death?" Shui Xiu said, and said angrily: "If she has the ability, she is in this sect."
Live forever!"
I gently stroked the wound on her knee and said, "No."
I supported Shuixiu and let her lie down to rest. After a while, Nanny Wu came back with satin and cotton, sat on the edge of the bed and started sewing. I told them a few words and then walked to Nian Shen's room.
In addition to the three of us, Chang Qing also left a little girl beside her, Xing'er, to take care of Nian Shen. As soon as she saw me coming, she immediately got up and came over: "Miss Qing."
I looked at her expression and asked, "What's wrong?"
"The eldest prince looks a little bad."
"Ah?"
I was suddenly startled, and hurriedly walked to the bedside. I saw Nianshen's face was as pale as paper, and even his lips had no color at all. There were several cracks in them. When I reached out and touched them, they were frighteningly hot, but
But not a drop of sweat broke out.
I frowned: "When I went back just now, it wasn't so hot. Why——"
Xing'er was so frightened that her eyes turned red and said: "Just now, Concubine Li came to see the eldest prince. She insisted that the room was too stuffy and it was not good for the prince. She asked me to pick up the tent. The prince saw the wind.
, just——”
My brows turned into a knot.
I just went back to see the water show, and I only had a little time - hum, I really spared no effort.
However, the disease of sore throat is fickle in nature, so I quickly calmed down, and while using a handkerchief to pour ice water on Nian Shen's face, I said to Xing'er: "Hurry up and call the imperial doctor.
Just say that the prince's fever can't go away and let him think of a way."
"Yeah."
After hearing this, Xing'er hurriedly ran out. After a while, several imperial doctors were invited from the imperial hospital. They all frowned and looked at each other, but did not speak.
I stepped forward and greeted him respectfully, and said: "My lords, if the eldest prince's fever cannot subside, the situation will not be very good. I hope you can find a way."
They looked at each other, and finally Mr. Zhou from Taiyuan Hospital spoke up: "We all know what Miss Qing said. In the current situation of the eldest prince, other medicines are no longer effective. Taiyin Hospital has a dose of medicine called
'Four Tiger Soup', but the medicine of tiger and wolf is too powerful, I'm afraid that the eldest prince——"
It turns out that they are afraid of taking responsibility.
I said: "Everyone, since the Queen has entrusted the eldest prince to my care, I will naturally bear the responsibility. Sir, please try your best."
Hearing what I said, they breathed a sigh of relief and wrote a prescription. After a while, a bowl of black Sihu soup was cooked and delivered. I gently stirred the soup to enjoy the coolness while looking at it carefully.
After the medicine cooled down a bit, I took a small sip. The bitter taste made me frown immediately.
The most common medicines in this picture are coptis and gypsum, so it’s no wonder it tastes like this.
I carried the medicine to the bedside, picked up Xiao Nianshen and lay in my arms. I felt that his body was very hot. I scooped some medicine with a spoon and gently brought it to his lips.
"Your Highness? Your Highness, you have taken medicine..."
His thick dark eyelashes fluttered, and after a while he opened his eyes and looked at me, a little weakly: "Grandma..."
"Your Highness, come down and drink the medicine."
Nian Shen nodded feebly, opened his mouth a little, and I hurriedly fed the concoction in carefully. He had just swallowed a little, and suddenly frowned, and the rest of the medicine flowed out from his lips: "Well—
—So bitter, so astringent..."
I hurriedly wiped him clean and said softly: "Your Highness, be good. Good medicine tastes bitter. After eating this, I will find something sweet for you to eat, okay?"
Xiao Nian pouted deeply and nodded helplessly.
Although the medicine was bitter, he still drank it bit by bit. After drinking it, I carefully wiped the corners of his mouth. He was burnt and confused, and he murmured: "Grandma... sweet
of..."
I smiled and whispered in his ear: "Your Highness, please sleep for a while. When you wake up, we will have some snacks."
"...Oh."
After he fell asleep, I stood up with the bowl in hand. As soon as I turned around, I saw Xing'er standing next to me. She took the bowl from my hand and said attentively: "Miss Qing, you don't have to worry about this. I'll do it."
Just watch over His Highness."
I smiled, knowing that she was worried that if Li Fei and the others came again, she would not be able to shoulder the responsibility, so I didn’t say anything. I smiled and thanked her, and Myolie hurried out with the bowl in hand.
p>
However, Xing'er's worry was not entirely unreasonable, so I never left Nian Shen's room and slept outside at night. When I woke up in the morning, I found that his fever had gone down a bit, but he still had some fever, so he returned to his room.
I asked them to cook up a half-dose bowl of Sihu soup and bring it to me. This time, it was Grandma Wu who brought it.
She handed me the medicine bowl and whispered in my ear: "Shui Xiu was called over by someone from Saitama Hall again."
I frowned when I heard that.
Aunt Wu looked at me, as if she was waiting for me to say something, but after waiting for a long time, I didn't say anything, and then she said, "Does that woman have to torture Shuixiu to death?"
I stirred the concoction with a spoon and said, "Shui Xiu is not hers after all, she can't do this."
Aunt Wu glanced at me, and I just walked to the bedside and gave Nian Shen the bowl of medicine to drink.
To be continued...
