Chapter 153 Shen's death is seriously ill
It's not the longest day in summer. There is still a quarter of an hour before dinner, but the sky is already very dark. Walking on the cobblestone corridor, in the direction of Ningxiao Hall, you can only see a hazy row of eaves.
As soon as she arrived at the door of Ningxiao Hall, the little maid guarding the door wanted to go in to inform, and was stopped by Ling Xiao. Although Ling Yuechan is harsh on her subordinates, she is not good at the real imperial subordinates. What's more, Ling Xiao's current identity is Zhaoyi, and she is rarely so fierce. The little maid of honor was stunned for a moment. How could she dare to refute? Ling Xiao walked in with the blue fog.
"Congratulations, miss, congratulations, madam, you have survived, and there will be no one else in front of you in the future." There was a burst of laughter in the hall, as if something great joy had happened.
"She thought that if her daughter became Zhaoyi, she could do whatever she wanted in the Ling family? Can you become a veritable Mrs. Ling? It's just a joke! This time, she doesn't have to whisper in front of her mother anymore, and of course, she doesn't have to poke her eyes in front of her mother. Ling Yuechan's extremely proud voice came from inside.
"It's just that she can still enjoy the worship of his wife in the ancestral hall of the Ling family." ......
In the following words, Ling Xiao could no longer hear them clearly, and there was a roar in his mind, which was a mess. Mother? Isn't Ling Yuechan's mother? But why did she respect her mother so much? What's wrong with no one in front of you? What kind of ancestral hall? What kind of offering?
Qingwu was also pale. Although she had not followed Ling Xiao since she was a child, she had no feelings for Mrs. Ling, but when she heard the words from it, she also realized that something was a big deal.
Ling Xiao broke in regardless, cut his head and asked, "Ling Yuechan, what are you talking about? What's wrong with my mother?
Ling Yuechan was stunned at first. Before her original proud smile could dissipate, she condensed at the corners of her mouth. When she saw Ling Xiao, anger gradually appeared on her face, mixed with a touch of guilty heart, and did not answer Ling Xiao's question. Instead, she walked to the door and said as she walked, "It seems that I'm too kind to control you more and more. What? Unexpectedly, he casually let outsiders break in, and there was no notification..."
"Don't leave now. Make it clear to me." Ling Xiao grabbed her and said something. He must ask her clearly.
Ling Yuechan instinctively wanted to fight back. She struggled for a while but finally did not dare to continue. In addition to realizing the identity gap between the two, she was also shocked by Ling Xiao's cold and sharp eyes at this moment. Her face was gloomy and she didn't say anything. Ling Xiao didn't rush, but just stared at her.
After a while, Ling Yuechan flashed a desperate and cheerful expression on her face and said, "There was such a big happy event at home. I was going to tell my sister. Since my sister happened to come here, I will tell you. Now, we are all young ladies of the Ling family, but my sister is more well-known. The soft and gentle sound of the phrobe is indescribably proud and flamboyant.
"You, what do you mean?" Ling Xiao's voice trembled more and more, "My mother, my mother?"
Ling Yuechan corrected her and said, "It's our mother! My sister should remember that the emperor is the most popular woman who understands rules and etiquette. In the future, you have to call my mother "mother" with your sister. As for Shen Murou, she was gone a month ago.
There was a sudden blank in front of Ling Xiao's eyes. It seemed that the whole world had become a wilderness, and everything had disappeared. She was the only one standing alone in the boundless wilderness, endless depression and desolation, nothingness and panic.
Ling Yuechan's charming voice continued to come to her ear: "It's also her blessing. This kind of weather can also get malaria. Even if her father and mother have invited many famous doctors to treat her, it is difficult to reverse her fate after all." With that, he sighed, but he didn't have any sincerity. "It's a pity. Sister, you haven't been promoted to Zhaoyi, but she hasn't even been infected with any blessing. It can be seen that she is originally a blessing."
"Bang!" Ling Xiao's whole body trembled, and he slapped him in the face without thinking about it. Ling Yuechan did not hide, but smiled more and more proudly. She knew that Ling Xiao was just a foreign strong man at this moment. In fact, her spirit was almost crushed. Naturally, she didn't mind adding more vinegar.
Sister, do you know why your father always doesn't treat your mother? Ha ha, your mother was originally the eldest daughter of the magistrate's family, which is also the best high school in Phoenix, but my father was just a depressed scholar in those years, and later he relied on your ancestors to get up step by step. But your ancestors never like to see your father, so as long as your father sees your mother, he will think of the humiliation of the past. How can he still be kind to your mother?
"And what about your mother? If you can't get the favor of your father and the protection of your mother's family, can you not be miserable in the end? It can be seen that women, it's better not to be too stupid. After being used, it will be worthless and become a yellow-faced woman. It's good to be kicked aside.
"Sister, I know, you always feel that I'm stupid, but no matter how stupid I am, I won't be like your mother! Hahaha... Look at my mother, she is just a maid in the pharmacy, but she has been able to get to this day, with her father's love and become a serious Mrs. Ling. Can't you see who is the final winner?
"Sister, they are like this, and we will be the same. Although you seem to be quite tall now, sooner or later... The queen is the first person in the harem, and the result is not, tut."
"People die like lights out..."
The last sentence "A person dies like a lamp" completely crushed Ling Xiao. When it was dark in front of him, he fainted.
In the dream, there are all the figure of the mother, the mother's smile, the mother's weak but resolute eyes, the two in the shabby but warm small house, burning, cooking, washing, embroidery, beating... There are also the fiery flowers, all over the mountains, in the front and back of the house, there are countless fiery flowers. Small skies are strung on a string, hanging on the wrist, like a bright flame, wrapped around the wrist, as if it can illuminate the future.
In the fiery red flowers, a small water-colored figure suddenly appeared, like a drop of water, dispelling the heat around the body little by little, the whole body was comfortable, and the mind seemed to become clear. But at the moment of Qingming's reply, what Ling Yuechan said became clear.
"People die like a lamp."
"People die like a lamp."
......
"Ah--" Ling Xiao shouted and woke up sweaty.
"Miss!" The green fog lying by the bed was also awakened. Seeing that Ling Xiao woke up, he hurriedly asked, "Miss, are you all right? I'm going to invite the imperial doctor to come here. With that, he called the little maid outside to come in and asked her to report to the emperor and inform Lin Xuanyu and Lu Qianmo.
Ling Xiao opened his mouth and felt that his throat was very dry. He said in a hoarse voice, "Tea..."
Qingwu quickly poured a cup of tea, waited for Ling Xiao to drink it, and drank three cups in a row. After a while, the imperial doctor came, took the pulse, and prescribed some warm tonic medicine, saying that there was no big problem, as long as he had a good rest. Feng Yuqi sent someone to have a good rest and sent a lot of rewards, saying that he would come to see her at night.
Before long, Lin Xuanyu also came. Qingwu retreated with people. Before leaving, he looked at Lin Xuanyu as if praying, "Please also ask Lin Xiaozhu to talk to our mother. The maidservant is outside, waiting for the instructions of the mother and the little master at any time."
The green fog stood outside the door, paying attention to the movement inside, hoping that Lin Xuanyu could unlock Ling Xiao. I don't know how long it took, and finally there was a cry from inside. It was very sad and painful. She couldn't help crying when she heard it, but her heart was relieved and she just cried out.
This is the most serious illness that Ling Xiao has had since he entered the palace. It has been good and bad for several months. It really answered that sentence. The disease comes like a mountain, and the disease goes like silk. When she is completely well, this summer is coming to an end.
"Madam, just now, Grandpa Liu came to send a message and said that the emperor had something to do today, so I won't come to see you." Qingwu took a glass of rose dew with a smile and suggested, "Why don't we go out for a walk?"
Ling Xiao drank all the rose dew, and his face was a little ruddy. He nodded, held Qingwu's hand, and went out. She hasn't stepped out of the palace for months, but usually Lin Xuanyu and Lu Qianmo come to see her from time to time. They often tell her about the palace, and other good concubines also occasionally come to visit. Looking at today's court, it doesn't seem strange.
"At this time, if it is in Phoenix, the Lingxiao flowers have not yet faded, and the flame-like flowers will not gradually disappear until the end of autumn." Ling Xiao looked at the colorful flowers around, as if sighing.
Qingwu paused for a moment, and suddenly remembered a place she accidentally found a while ago. She said excitedly to Ling Xiao, "If you want to see Ling Xiaohua, I know that there is a place where the flowers are blooming well."
"Oh? There are Lingxiaohua in this palace. Why don't I know? Hearing this, Ling Xiao also became interested.
"I'm going to take the young lady there."
The master and servant came to the pomegranate pavilion behind the Ice Game Palace and saw the scattered sky flowers hidden in the middle of the pomegranate flowers.
Ling Xiao couldn't help stretching out his hand to touch the flowers, and his mind was a little trance. No wonder I didn't know it before. This place is outside the backyard of Bingyi Palace, which is originally remote. What's more, Bingfei is a member of Xie Guifei. She doesn't have much contact. How can she walk here if she has nothing to do?
"I heard from Grandpa Liu that when you were sick, the emperor often came here to rest. Originally, I thought I was coming to see the Ice Concubine, but later I knew..." Qingwu squeezed his lips with a smile, "Looking at the emperor's meaning, it's like seeing flowers and thinking of people."
Qingwu was purely happy for Ling Xiao, but Ling Xiao's heart was moved when he heard it. Feng Yuqi often came here... Even Qingwu, a little girl, could think of it. What would she think of a person as smart as Bingfei?
This pomegranate pavilion is named after this ancient pomegranate tree. How can there be flowers here for no reason? If that kind of flower person likes Lingxiaohua, why does he deliberately plant it next to this pomegranate tree to cover up something?
