Chapter 139 Rolling Curtain 2
I didn't think of this at all. I didn't recover for a moment. I stared at the maid running out of the door and sat there. When it was almost night, the maid sent to finally come back from the outside and said with joy, "Try back to the Empress, Yan Zhaoyi and the fetus in the womb are safe."
When I heard this, I pondered slightly and asked her, "Do you know how this happened?"
The maid nodded and replied, "After the Empress left the government palace, Mu Zhaoyuan and Wei Zhaorong and Zhou Cairen argued again. Yan Zhaoyi dissuaded several people and was accidentally overthrown by Zhou Cairen. At that time, she fainted with pain. After knowing this, the Empress regretted and pleaded guilty to the emperor.
I sank my eyes and made the palace people prepare for the bath and sleep after the bath. I always wake up in the middle of the night, thinking, and inadvertently wake up. I don't care. Until the morning, I suddenly felt dizzy and swollen. I asked Qinger to change my clothes for me and then went to the Shang Pharmacy. I still can't let go of yesterday's incident in my heart. At that time, I first found Tian Shi's doctor and asked, "How is Yan Zhaoyi's health?"
Tian Shi's doctor replied, "To report to the Empress Defei, Yan Zhaoyi only needs to stay in bed for a month. She is not serious and can take care of the fetus at ease."
Nod, and a man came in outside the door. Tian Shi's royal doctor bowed down and went out. Song Yi saluted me with a soft smile, and then sat under my seat, with his eyes on my face and frown slightly.
I explained against the corners of my eyes, and my voice sounded a little stuffy: "In recent days, I often have side headaches, and my appetite is also plain and boring."
Song Yi nodded and put a piece of softness under my wrist to diagnose my pulse. After a while, he slowly hit a touch of sadness between his eyebrows and said, "I'm anxious. You should relax more. Don't forget your previous illness and take good care of yourself. Don't take the fetal medicine you ordered to send to Deqing Palace. It's three poisons and harmful to you at this time. I will give you a calming prescription. Go to bed early at night and don't think too much about it in the daytime.
I thought for a moment and nodded: "Do as you say."
Song Yi wrote the prescription on the next table and said to me, "I'm not feeling well in the back. Just ask the people in the palace to call me. Don't come so far in person."
I smiled slowly and explained, "I came out of the Shangyao Bureau. There is a kind of natural kindness when I go back here. I don't want to stay in the bedroom all the time. When the people outside see the people of the Shang pharmacy always in and out of my palace, they should secretly say that I am sick."
"There is also some truth." Song Yi nodded and asked the doctor to take the prescription to fry the medicine. He suddenly remembered something and said to me, "Take the prescription today. It's better to go to the Shangshe Bureau to get a pot and put the grass and put it at the door of the bedroom. Don't put the couch too close. Although the fragrance of its branches and leaves can relieve fatigue and sleep, its fragrance is relatively strong, and it is not easy to be too close or long."
I bowed when I heard the words and ordered the maid of honor to go to the Shangshe Bureau to get restrain the grass. Sitting in this pharmacy, smelling a faint smell of medicine seems to return to the past, and at the same time, there is fatigue. Song Yi saw that I was tired, called someone to get a blanket to keep out the cold, and then retreated. I pointed to my forehead and sniffed the medicine and fell asleep. After only a while, Qinger woke me up with the decoction medicine. I woke up, pinched the corners of my eyes, and after a moment, I took the medicine bowl and drank it all. The maid next to her was holding a pot of flowers and trees. The repressing grass of the Shangshe Bureau had been taken. I reached out to help Qinger get up and fainted.
I left the Shang Pharmacy and turned back to Deqing Palace. After only a few steps, I saw two pedestrians coming from the opposite side, and in front of them were Wenizi and Zhou Cairen. The two smiled when they saw me and saluted slightly, but they seemed to deliberately block my way. At this time, Weinizi said, "Is the Empress Defei coming back from the Pharmacy?"
I raised my eyebrows and smiled: "It's a walk to the Shang Pharmacy."
A strange smile climbed to Weinizi's face, and Zhou Cairen beside her boldly catered to him: "Although Yan Zhaoyi's tire avoidance medicine was suppressed by the emperor a few days ago, it's a little strange today."
After she finished her words, I slapped her on her delicate left face. The sound of slap shocked Venizi and a group of maids of honor. The speed of my change of color surprised everyone present. Zhou Cairen covered his cheeks and looked at me with resentment. I stared angrily and said to her, "The emperor decreed not to mention this matter again, otherwise the prompter will never forgive me. Zhou Cairen was so bold that he desperately used this matter to suppress the palace. With these two things, this slap is a small warning!" Zhou Cairen lowered his eyes in a panic and retreated to the side. I glanced back at the surprised Weini and walked away.
After passing through the two lines of palace people, there was a sudden sound after walking a few steps. Wenizi shouted at the same time, "What's the matter? Take the crime to the Empress Defei!"
I turned around and saw a flower pot broken on the ground. The maid holding the flower pot behind me knelt down to me in panic and pressed her head without saying anything. A maid of honor stood in front of Wenizi, looked at me silently, knelt on the ground and said, "Excuse me."
Weinizi then smiled and kicked her maid on the ground: "It's all because my concubine's discipline is not strict, let this bastard knock over the lady's flower pot."
Although her maid was kneeling, she had no regret at all. Seeing the clues, I disdained to argue with Wenics again and allowed the two maids to get up. Qing'er wanted to call the maid to go to the Shangshe Bureau to get the anthers. I stopped her and turned around to leave, but Weinizi suddenly asked, "I heard that Yan Zhaoyi, Mu Zhaoyuan and the Empress Defei have broken up. It's right to think that those two usually run rampant in the palace relying on the prestige of the Empress. The Empress is deeply righteous. How can she stand being sisters with such people?
"What about the break between this palace and Yan Zhaoyi Mu Zhaoyuan? Didn't Wei Zhaorong break up with his cousin a long time ago? What qualifications do you have to talk about sisterhood with me? I angrily scolded the approaching step by step, and my eyes were locked with Weinizi, who was gradually at a loss. She stepped back from my divine eyes. I grabbed her shoulder and said, "Zhou Cairen is ignorant, and Wei Zhaorong doesn't understand. The most taboo thing in the palace is to fight behind the back and form a party. Not to mention that Yan Zhaoyi is higher than you, Wei Zhaorong wants to discuss these with this palace. Aren't you afraid that this palace will be punished!"
We Nizi lowered his eyes and was a little embarrassed by my continuous scolding. Unexpectedly, he whispered, "I... I just care about the Empress. In fact, the Empress must be uncomfortable. Concubine, concubine..."
I smiled, glanced at Wenizi and Zhou Cairen back and forth, and said, "Don't test my patience. How can you guess what I do!"
Both of them lowered their eyebrows and whispered, "I remember it."
I left coldly and proudly, but my heart gradually frustrated. Back at Deqing Palace, I sat weakly on the couch, and the feeling from my chest was complicated and indefinable. I sighed and asked Qinger, "Do you think... is it right or wrong this time?"
Qinger thought a little, knelt down and squeezed her palm for me to relieve fatigue, and said softly, "Wei Zhaorong and Zhou Cairen are not kind to the Empress. The Empress deliberately cut off Yan Zhaoyi and Mu Zhaoyuan, in fact, in order not to be implicated by them. But things are always unexpected. The Empress protected them, but put them into her tongue. I dare not say whether it's right or wrong... The maidservant is heartbroken.
"Qing'er, thank you for your willingness to help me. I'm especially comforted." I patted the back of her hand with a smile, and she nodded sincerely to me and clenched my hand. At this time, I remembered something and asked her, "How's the queen?"
Qing'er said, "The emperor did not condemn the empress, but the empress herself knelt in the Buddhist hall, saying that she atoned for her sins and prayed for Yan Zhaoyi."
I was silent and suddenly smiled bitterly and said, "Actually, the most atonement... is this palace!"
I looked at this spacious hall because of it, I wanted to call myself "the palace", and it was because everyone wanted to call myself "the palace" in front of others that created a matter. The rebellion of sisters, the secret fights in various palaces, what must be done and involuntarily crawl in this bright harem, waiting for the opportunity to cause trouble.
It was night, and Li Shimin still came to my bedroom. Although Empress Changsun formulated the harem sleeping system, at this extraordinary moment, Li Shimin still chose the palace according to himself. Although there was a personal eunuch every reminder, Li Shimin's intention had been decided, and the reminder would not work.
He sat on the soft collapse and looked at me in silence. The more he didn't ask about yesterday, the more uneasy I was and endured for a long time, or I said first, "What does the emperor think of what happened in recent days?"
"This has always been the case since the harem of ancient emperors. The emperor is the last to know everything that happened. Whether it is true or grievance, it has already been settled. He opened his mouth without thinking about it, but paused at this moment. After a moment, he sighed slightly, "But I understand you."
After I was slightly stunned, I bowed my head and said, "My concubine cares most about the emperor. The emperor understands that my concubine has no regrets.
Li Shimin smiled faintly, stroked my cheek, and said, "If you want people not to offend yourself, you should be strong. What I can give you can only make them awe on the surface. It's up to you to cure the things in your bones.
I lowered my eyes and nodded, but I couldn't stop the sadness in my heart. I closed my eyes fiercely and approached his arms: "Your Majesty, I feel so uncomfortable!"
His body seemed to be stiff, and then he slowly relaxed, gently hugged me, and put his chin on my forehead. I took a deep breath and said sadly, "These days, I often wonder why I know so many people so as not to attract so many concerns. I really wanted to go back to a few years ago. Because of that arrow, the emperor promised me that although the war was quite tight, even breathing was so free. That was the happiest time. But here, Xiran is really afraid. No matter what he does, there will always be such a thing and such a thing. Every day, he is really scared.
Li Shimin gently patted me on the back and whispered in my ear, "Don't be afraid, you still have me."
I suddenly grasped the skirt in my hand and shook the tears in my eyes: "No, you are not alone, you are not complete, you are not just me."
Li Shimin looked at me deeply, from deep to painful softness, and embraced me. I felt a slight wetness between my neck, and my heart suddenly hurt. I instinctively wanted to look up, but he stretched out his hand and pressed my face firmly in his arms. His voice trembled slightly, but it was as strong as iron: "I will take you to find the happiness of the past. I will take you to walk through us again. Only you and me, I am just yours."
I held him tighter, my breath was soft, and I pinched the skirt on his chest with tears: "People..."
