332 Chapter 332 Unaccustomed Gentleness
Pei Yuanhao changed his face as soon as he heard this and immediately asked, "What's wrong with her?"
"It's said it's abdominal pain, I've already gone to hire an imperial physician!"
"What?!"
With a clang, he threw the bowl in his hand on the table and ran out quickly. Because he walked too fast, he bumped into the table when he got up, and the small pot was knocked over, and the orange cheese inside sprinkled on the table.
I also hurriedly stood up and was about to walk out, but as soon as I reached the door, the cold wind blew, which made me calm down unexpectedly and stopped.
Xiaoyu and the others were following me, and at this time, they asked in confusion: "Talented man, don't you go over and take a look?"
"..." I was silent for a moment, then turned to instruct Shui Xiu: "Go to Xu Cairen to see what happened. If there are too many people, don't go in. If you find out, come back and report me immediately."
"yes."
After hearing this, Shui Xiu walked out immediately.
As soon as she left, I looked back at the mess on the table and said to Xiaoyu, "Clean up here."
"yes."
I sat back to the table again, watching Xiaoyu pack up everything on the table with quick hands and feet. Madam Wu stood at the door and looked outside. At this time, she walked to me carefully and bent down and said, "Talented Man."
"Um?"
"Can't you go and take a look?"
I know what she means. I have followed Xu Cairen in the past and have also been taken care of by her. Now if something happens to her, I will be a little unreasonable if I don’t care about her.
But what I worry about is that if something really happened to her, I would have no help in the past, and I am also a pregnant woman. In the past, both others and myself were just causing trouble.
Let's talk about it-
I shook my head gently, and Madam Wu stood aside with some confusion. After a while, she saw Shui Xiu coming back, running out of breath, her face didn't seem very good-looking. I hurriedly got up and said, "How is it? What happened to Xu Cairen?"
"I don't know." She said unhappily: "Yuwen won't let me in, and she didn't answer a word when asked her. That face makes people angry when they look at it."
"Then, is the imperial physician here?"
"Here, I've come, I've left after a while, it seems that it's not a big deal."
"oh……"
As soon as I heard this, my heart relaxed and slowly sat back to the table. Madam Wu and the others said nothing, and they all dispersed. Instead, Shui Xiu came to my ear and said softly: "Talented Man, I think Xu Cairen is nothing at all, he is making trouble."
I turned my head to look at her.
"If something really happens, why would the imperial doctor come out after a while? But after the emperor comes in, he doesn't come out again. I want to ask Xu Cairen a goodbye, and Yuwen stops me."
"..." I was silent for a while, smiled, and said to her, "Aren't you hungry?"
"Huh?" She was stunned for a moment, looked at me stupidly, and I smiled and said, "It's been a lot of hard work to let you run so far. I still have half a pot of orange cheese in the kitchen, and it's all yours."
I went to the palace two years later. When I saw me, I called my sister. Although this girl was usually slutty and clever, she was not without a kind heart and was familiar with me. She was inevitably biased towards me and was a little extreme in such matters. When she heard my words to avoid the importance, she immediately said: "Talented, you--"
"Okay, I know this."
I glanced at her and waved my hand: "Stop talking."
She pouted and walked out with a muttering voice. After Xiaoyu cleaned up the table, the people from the imperial kitchen brought dinner. Because Pei Yuanhao was coming tonight, the dishes were more than when I usually ate alone, and a table was full.
As soon as the last Longjing Clam Bamboo Fung Soup was put on, Eunuch Yu saw Eunuch walking in from outside.
"Father-in-law," I also hurriedly got up: "Is Xu Cairen okay?"
When he heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and coughed with an abnormal expression: "No, it's nothing serious. The emperor asked the old slave to come and pass the message. He will not come tonight. Talents--" He looked down at the food on the table, and felt a little embarrassed: "Talents can use it yourself."
I smiled and said, "It's good that Xu Cairen is fine. I'll bother my father-in-law to go this trip."
“Where, where.”
Eunuch Yu glanced at me again, said nothing, just sighed and left.
I slowly sat back to the table, looked at the dishes on the table under the candlelight, raised the chopsticks and ate a little of each, but suddenly a sensation surged in my chest, and I turned my head and vomited them all in the spittoon.
I wiped the sour water from my mouth, slowly sat back to the table, and looked at the swaying candlelight for a long time.
.
I got up the next morning and heard Xiaoyu and the others say that the emperor had left. I didn't say anything. After finishing the washing, I had to go out to relax. As soon as I walked into the yard, I saw the door on that side open and Xu Cairen walked out of it.
She is still thin, with a sharp chin, but there is a healthy blush on her cheeks, but when she looks up and sees me, her face changes a little.
I thought about it and walked over: "Xu Cairen, is it okay?"
"Uh, Qingying-oh, Yue Cairen, I'm fine."
She was a little nervous, and her forehead was sweating a little, and her eyes flashed to avoid my sight. I still said with a smile: "I heard that you had a stomachache, which scared me."
"Yes, it's fetal movement. It's also me that I'm too nervous, so--"
The more she said, the more nervous the person became. Yuwen next to her walked over unhappily: "Talented man, the emperor also told you last night not to stand for too long and have a good rest. Let's go back to the house and sit."
"Okay, okay." She nodded quickly, turned around and left, looked back at me, and said with a complicated expression: "Yue Cairen, you - take good care of yourself."
"OK."
Seeing them walking back, I turned around and walked away, and I heard Shui Xiu say angrily beside me: "Look, talented people, I'm right. They just took the opportunity to pretend to be crazy, nothing happened."
I just smiled faintly.
This palace has been a long history of competing for favor with children in its womb, and I am not surprised, but I also know that Xu Cairen is not fighting for anything. Before I got pregnant, she was the only one in the palace and Pei Yuanhao went to accompany her almost every day. She was used to such warmth, and now she suddenly became cold, and it is inevitable that she would not get used to it.
She just wanted to see that man.
When it was time for lunch, Pei Yuanhao came. He didn't plan to say anything about last night, and I didn't plan to ask. After using the medicinal food, he sat with me for a while and then left.
This happened for several consecutive days.
On the fifth day, I used lunch early, picked up a few pieces of silver and asked Shui Xiu to accompany me out for a walk, and asked Madam Wu and Xiaoyu to stay. Shui Xiu followed me to the lake outside and said in confusion: "Talented man, usually at this time, the emperor will come in a while."
"Um."
"As soon as you leave like this, the emperor will come, you won't be able to see you!"
“…”
Seeing that I didn't speak all the way, Shui Xiu pouted. When we walked to a secluded path, she suddenly said, "Cairen, I know you have always wanted to leave the palace. A year ago, you could have gone out, but the emperor locked up again. You can't let Xu Cairen and others out because of this - right?"
I looked back at her.
These days, I rarely think about what happened a year ago. The door that closed in front of me was almost violent with Pei Yuanhao. Yue Qingying at that time and Yue Cairen now were already two lives.
I smiled faintly and said, "Silly girl, how can I give in this harem? Even if I want to leave the palace, no matter how stupid I will not give in."
"Then, then you-"
"I just don't want to get used to it."
If you don’t want to get used to it, that man will come to see me every day; if you don’t want to get used to it, his warmth and smile are not afraid of losing one day, but that one day, I will lose myself because of losing these things.
Shui Xiu looked at me without understanding, and I had already smiled and continued to walk forward. She also realized that I didn't want to talk about this anymore, so she stopped talking and followed me all the way, but as she walked, she seemed to have a wrong path. When we reached the gate, she grabbed me: "Talent, why are you here?"
What is in front of you is the cold palace.
I turned around and said to her, "I just went in and saw someone, said a few words, and came out in a while. You stay here, just report something."
"ah?"
She looked at me with some embarrassment, and I had already patted her hand and turned around and walked in.
I came to the cold palace, and I didn't do anything else, I just wanted to see Madam Qian.
She helped me a lot in the more than half a year she was locked up here. Although she always spoke ill of her, when I looked back, if it weren't for her, I would have been unable to survive in the cold palace.
Just as I was thinking, when I looked up, I saw behind a dense bush of flowers in front of me. Madam Qian was standing there, as if she was talking to someone. I was about to walk over, but just now I took a step forward and saw a simple-dressed and peaceful-looking nanny standing in front of her was handing her a bag.
"This is what the Queen Mother asked me to bring."
As soon as I heard the word "Empress Dowager", my steps suddenly stopped and subconsciously hid beside me. I saw Madam Qian lowered her head, took the bag with a little red eyes, and said with a sob: "It's hard for the Empress Dowager, I still remember it."
"The Queen Mother always remembers that the Queen Mother said that it is difficult for you to stay in the cold palace for all these years."
Madam Qian didn't say anything, and wiped the corners of her eyes.
"The Empress Dowager said, you are old now. If you want to leave the palace, just say a word, and the Empress Dowager will immediately tell the emperor that if you want to do something small, you can say hello to the bottom."
Madam Qian smiled and said, "At this age, I am still thinking about leaving the palace. I have served Queen Zhao Lie for half my life, and for the rest of my life, I want to stay in this palace, which is enough."
Queen Zhao Lie? Is the queen who died in a fire before?
