Chapter 157 Difficulty
The topic of the old medicine changed too fast. Lin Ziqin didn't react for a moment. She stared at him for a long time before changing her face, "How do you know?"
"Hey, I just know!"
"Have you met your sister? Did she tell you?"
"Sister?" The old medicine was stunned for a moment and then understood, "Miss Hai? Although I know she is in the palace, I haven't seen her yet!"
Lin Ziqin became vigilant, "Then why do you know?"
The old medicine head came over and looked at her and smiled, "What, do you want to kill me?"
"Kill you?" Lin Ziqin hurriedly withdrew her clenched fist, "I didn't mean that..."
"Oh, oh, do you only have this courage?" The old medicine head withdrew his eyes, leaned back, and leaned against the back of the chair casually. "Little girl, don't think I'm nosy. I advise you to die early to revenge!"
Lin Ziqin felt despised and was a little annoyed, "How much do you know about me? Why do you say that about me?
"I don't know much about you, but as soon as I saw you today, I felt that you were much different from before. The expression is gloomy and the eyes are grating, which is obviously resentful. Just now, when I tested a little, you acquiesced to the purpose of entering the palace to revenge. Little girl, I don't mean to hit you. You are too simple to hide yourself. It's easy to be seen through at a glance. People like you can only be slaughtered by others if they stay in the palace!
That's all. You still have a fatal point, but you are not cruel enough. With hatred, you are not cruel enough. You can't kill anyone, it will only hurt you. So, you still give up the idea of revenge..."
" shut up!" Lin Ziqin stood up, grabbed the skirt of the old medicine and roared, "Who do you think you are? Why do you say that about me? Why..."
The old medicine head smiled unchanged and said, "If you are not afraid to attract the whole palace, you can shout hard. Anyway, I came to see the patient. There is nothing to be afraid of, but you are different, hehe!"
Lin Ziqin was stunned when she heard the words, hurriedly let go of her hand and looked at the door in panic. I didn't hear anything for a long time, so I felt a little relieved and sat back in the chair. Angry and grievance, tears gushed out uncontrollably, "Why did you come to me? Is it just to bully me?"
The old medicine head quickly waved his hand, "Oh, little girl, don't talk nonsense. I haven't done anything to you. If this comes out, I can't wash it even if it comes out..."
Seeing her tears falling down one by one and crying very sadly, she stopped talking.
Lin Ziqin cried, and the depression that had accumulated for a long time in her heart eased a lot. She stopped her tears and glanced at the old medicine, "Sister, she has a cold. You can go to the Xiuyuan to see her. She should have a lot to say to you..."
"You don't have to worry about that. I'm measured!" The old medicine head grinned, "Have you cried enough?"
"Hmm!" Lin Ziqin nodded with some embarrassment.
"I came to see you just to tell you that you don't want to revenge. Even if you become an imperial concubine, you can't kill the emperor. And..." The old medicine head stood up with a rare solemn look, "You don't have to kill him!"
Lin Ziqin opened her eyes and said, "Isn't necessary? What does this mean?"
"I can't tell you clearly, but even if you don't kill him, he won't live long!" The old medicine head pressed heavily on her shoulder, "Little girl, take care of yourself!"
"Ah?" Lin Ziqin was stunned and wanted to make it clear that the old medicine head had strode out.
Empress Su and Wen Caiqing went straight from Ningxiu Pavilion to Shou'an Palace and carefully told the Empress Dowager Shu about the selection of beautiful women.
"Is that beautiful girl the righteous daughter of King Kang Jing?" Empress Dowager Shu looked embarrassed when she heard this, "This is really difficult!"
"Yes, empress dowager, the imperial doctor can't assert whether Qin Xuening has leprosy or not. Her name can't be light or heavy, and she doesn't know what to do!"
Wen Caiqing saw that the Empress Dowager Shu was muttering and seemed to be hesitant. He turned his eyes and said, "Although Qin Xuening is the righteous daughter of King Kang Jing, the dragon body of the emperor is the most important to us. Empress Dowager, forgive Caiqing for saying a disrespectful word. Our emperor is stubborn. If he is interested in any woman, how can he care if she has any disease?
"Sister Lifei's words are right. Once the emperor takes on his terms, he doesn't care what kind of woman she is!" Empress Su glanced at Wen Caiqing with deep meaning.
Wen Caiqing knew that she meant herself and didn't care. He continued, "So, Empress Dowager, we have to protect the emperor!"
"Does Sister Lifei mean that Qin Xuening will not have a chance to approach the emperor?"
"The Empress misunderstood Cai Qing's meaning!" Wen Caiqing smiled and said, "This kind of thing makes people very uneasy when choosing a beautiful girl. Caiqing wants to ask the Empress Dowager to make the decision and order the imperial doctors to consult those beautiful girls, so as not to have any hidden diseases, and it will be bad to hurt the emperor at that time!"
This fox charming son turns quite fast!
Queen Su cursed secretly and smiled at herself, "Yes, Sister Li is still thinking about it!"
"Hmm!" Empress Dowager Shu nodded, "It's time to let the doctors pay attention. Because each vassal king carefully selected the beautiful women who paid tribute, in previous years we only checked the faces and virtues of the beautiful women, and did not expect to check their physical condition. Now it seems that this cannot be ignored! Come on, pass on the decree and ask the imperial hospital to consult all the beautiful women, but if there is any discomfort in the beautiful women, they must report it in detail!"
"Yes!" Someone promised to go out for business.
In less than an hour, the Tai Hospital presented the physical examination of all the beautiful women. Empress Dowager Shu personally saw it. Except for Qin Xuening, who was suspected of having leprosy, all the beautiful women were very healthy, which was relieved.
"Empress dowager, it's getting late. It's time to issue an order. Presumably, all the vassal kings are also waiting for news!" Empress Su asked carefully, "What should this Qin Xuening do?"
Empress Dowager Shu stared at her angrily, "You ghost girl, you should have dealt with it, but you silently pushed this problem to the mourning family!"
"Although my concubine is the mother of a country, after all, she is shallow, and she still needs to bother the Empress Dowager to mention more!" Empress Su hurriedly said with a smile.
"Just say that you are sorry for your old age!"
"I dare not, the Empress Dowager is young!"
Empress Dowager Shu laughed twice when she heard the words, "Okay, okay, my family won't joke with you anymore. You just don't know how to be funny." He corrected his look and said, "Since Qin Xuening is the righteous daughter of King Kang Jing, we always have to show some affection for King Kang Jing..."
Wen Caiqing's eyes flashed, "Does the Empress Dowager mean to give her the name of the concubine?"
Empress Dowager Shu shook her head with a smile, "There are many women in the palace. Those who are slaves and maidservants are respected by the Lord. Those who have the name of concubines are not necessarily noble, and those who are slaves and maidservants are not necessarily humble. It's just a reputation!"
Wen Caiqing didn't understand, "Cai Qing is stupid and doesn't understand what the Empress Dowager means!"
"Ha ha, you will understand one day!" Empress Dowager Shu smiled mysteriously.
"Why haven't you come yet?"
"Yes, it's time to come? It's so late..."
"Could it be because the imperial doctor just consulted us and there was something wrong?"
"No, I asked the doctor, and he said I was fine!"
"Isn't there no order today?"
"Don't worry about it. Didn't the Queen say when she left? Will she issue an order today?"
The girls were impatient to wait in Ningxiu Pavilion and went out of the room one after another. They looked at each other in the yard and talked about it in twos and threes.
Huang Yuejiao also kept looking at the door, but she didn't expect the concubine's will, but a little maid of honor. She took off her most valuable hairpin and bought a little maid and asked her to go to the showhouse to send letters to Haiman. The little maid of honor had not come back for a long time, which made her a little panicked.
"Don't look at it. Even if the will comes, there must be no name on it!" Bian Yu really saw her like this and squeezed her.
Huang Yue gave her a white look, "Do you have to find fault with me at this time?"
"You should thank me. When I become a concubine, you will have no chance to talk to me."
"Thank God, I hope I will never see you again in my life!"
"Well, we are each other!"
"The Queen is here--"
The two were arguing, and suddenly there was a call from outside. The women quickly stopped talking and stood up in order. Qi Qifu saluted.
"Bring Qin Xuening!" Queen Su ordered.
The two eunuchs promised to bring Lin Ziqin to the apse and still let her stand back in the team of beautiful women. The beautiful women close to her frowned one after another, showing disgust. If the queen hadn't been watching from above, they would have been far away.
Lin Ziqin didn't notice this, and all her attention was focused on her ears.
Empress Su glanced at the crowd, "Next, the palace is going to announce the selected actress. The actress with her name will stand on the left. These people will be summoned by the emperor later!"
When the show girls heard the words, their eyes lit up and pricked up their ears for fear of missing their names.
" Read it!" Empress Su nodded to the eunuchs around her.
"Yes!" The eunuch promised to take a step forward, unfolded the yellow silk, and said loudly, "Yue Mingzhu..."
"Yes!"
"Changlaner..."
"Yes!"
......
The girl who was read her name answered happily and came out of the line and stood at the place designated by Queen Su.
"Bian Yuzhen..."
"Yes!" Hearing his name, Bian Yu was so happy that his heart almost jumped out.
Huang Yuejiao stared nervously at the eunuch's mouth and muttered, "Isn't it really without me?"
As he was worried, he heard the eunuch call his name, "Huang Yuejiao..."
Ah? Yes!" After being stunned, she hurried out.
"Hmm!" Bian Yuzhen rolled her eyes angrily, and Huang Yuejiao stared back at her unwillingly.
