Chapter 1745: Once you enter the Hou family, its as deep as the sea (69)
Feeling that his heartbeat had calmed down a bit, the prince stretched out his hand that was still trembling, and took the glass of water on the table that had not been harmed by Jin Qing with a trembling hand, wanting to drink water to calm his shock.
It was just because he was so frightened that the prince's hands were shaking very badly.
The glass of water was shaken into half a glass, and the walls of the glass were still clanging against his teeth.
With difficulty, he poured the remaining water into his mouth. The prince began to cough violently as if he had thought of something. Was this the glass of water he had just used to dip it in and write?
As he coughed, the prince subconsciously put his hands on the table next to him.
There was just a crunching sound, and the white marble table shattered into pieces along its four legs in four directions.
The water glass that had been set on the table fell onto the soft table with a clatter, and the water that had been swirling in the glass finally spilled out.
Seeing the water in the cup soaking the soft pot, the prince felt that a stone in his heart suddenly fell to the ground.
Staring at the unconscious people on the ground, the prince suddenly chuckled and murmured to himself, "It's really unexpected." As for what he didn't expect, only he himself probably knows.
At noon the next day, the queen received the news that Lan Ruhai was leaving Beijing.
The queen, who knew the prince's plan, immediately became anxious and immediately sent someone to summon the prince to the palace to inquire about the situation.
Who would have thought, but he could only say one answer: The prince had too much wine last night and accidentally hurt his forehead. He couldn't go into the palace and bumped into the empress. He only waited until the injury was better before entering the palace to pay respects to the empress, so as not to expose his current appearance to others.
See.
The queen, who was rejected by her son for the first time, angrily threw her favorite jade cabbage ornament, and then angrily yelled at the eunuch who delivered the message, "Go and tell the prince that I am seriously ill. If he doesn't enter the palace today, he will be sick in the future."
Don’t come to see me anymore!”
Seeing the eunuch follow the order and leave, the queen clenched her fist tightly and completely cut off contact with Prince Xin, which meant that she only had one son left, the prince, and she could never let him escape her control.
Not only the prince, she also wanted to find a way to get King Xin back from his fiefdom.
The child had been pretending to be crazy and hiding behind her, and the queen was so angry that she broke her teeth into pieces. The child usually didn't get close to her, but now he managed the fiefdom so well.
As a result, she was often ridiculed by other concubines with guns and sticks. It was said that it was because of her unkindness that her biological son was so guarded against her. He did not dare to show his true abilities until he stayed away from her.
The words of these women really made the queen angry.
The queen secretly gritted her teeth in her heart. Since King Xi valued his fiefdom so much, she vowed to take away his fiefdom and then take him back to the capital to reflect on how he could honor his mother.
In order to facilitate this matter, the queen kept talking about the benefits of Northern Xinjiang in the prince's ears, and took the initiative to help the prince with suggestions. Only then did the prince, who had already been interested in Northern Xinjiang, completely strengthen his belief in taking action against King Xin.
Therefore, when the queen heard that Lan Ruhai had left the capital, she became extremely angry. She had a feeling that the prince seemed to be escaping from her control.
Just as the queen was losing her temper in the palace, she heard the eunuch announcing from outside that the chief eunuch had arrived.
The queen's chest rose and fell violently several times, and she ordered the palace servants to quickly tidy up the room. The queen straightened her hair and sat on a chair, asking the palace servants to let in the chief eunuch.
Carrying it in the hands of the chief eunuch
Holding a food box, he knelt down and saluted the Queen with a smile, "I would like to ask the Queen to be in peace."
Knowing that this was a popular person in front of the emperor, the queen did not embarrass the chief eunuch, but directly asked someone to help the chief eunuch stand up and speak.
After the chief eunuch stood up, he picked up the food box next to him and placed it respectfully next to the queen. "His Majesty said that the weather has been dry recently, so he specially ordered the kitchen to stew blood swallows for the queen every day. He said that he would eat them from now on.
In winter, it just nourishes the body."
After listening to the words of the chief eunuch, a smile finally appeared on the queen's face. She glanced at the eldest maid beside her. The eldest maid immediately helped the queen stand up and saluted to the royal study room. "I'm sorry, Your Majesty, I'm thinking of you."
Then there were other young palace servants who quickly took out the blood swallow in the food box and placed it on the small table in the hall.
The queen walked to the small table and sat down with a smile, and asked the chief eunuch, "Does your Majesty have any other instructions? Is he in good health today?"
The chief eunuch replied respectfully to the queen, "To tell you the queen, the weather has been hot recently, and your majesty often approves memorials until the middle of the night, which makes me feel very distressed.
After your Majesty came to court today, you suddenly thought that your empress was impatient with the summer heat, so you thought of asking your servants to send blood swallows to your empress every day to nourish her body. At the same time, your majesty also ordered Dr. Sun to come to your empress every day from tomorrow on.
Peace pulse."
This paragraph clearly stated the emperor's meaning, but did not reveal at all what the emperor's body was like at this time.
The Queen gave a long sigh, with a hint of resentment in her tone, "I'm sorry to bother you, Your Majesty, but I haven't seen Your Majesty for a long time."
Hearing that the Queen's tone was not good, the chief eunuch bowed down, but did not reply a word.
Knowing that what she said was really difficult to answer, the queen simply changed the subject and talked about something insignificant.
The chief eunuch was also obedient and followed the Queen's words, which actually made the Queen laugh.
Afterwards, the chief eunuch looked at the blood swallow that had lost its heat, and did not forget to remind the queen, "Mother, if this blood swallow gets cold, it will disappoint the emperor's wishes."
The queen gently pressed the center of her eyebrows and said angrily, "Okay, I know this well. You are also older, and the older you are, the more you talk."
The talkative head eunuch immediately shut his mouth and just looked at the queen with a smile without saying a word.
Seeing that the chief eunuch still didn't want to leave, the queen stood up with the help of the eldest palace maid, "We are going to have lunch soon. This blood swallow will heat up the kitchen as soon as possible. Eat it before I eat. Then I will let the palace."
The food box is neatly packed and delivered to you, please see how it goes."
Hearing what the Queen had said so straightforwardly, the eunuch manager naturally didn't want to stay longer and hurriedly bowed and resigned.
The moment the chief eunuch walked out of the door, the smile on the queen's face disappeared instantly, and her whole person became gloomy.
The queen's eyes fell on the small bright yellow bowl filled with blood swallows on one side. The expression on her face was unpredictable, and then she called softly, "Ruxi."
I saw a female official dressed as a third-grade Hui Ren, hurriedly walked in from the outside, knelt down in front of the Queen and said, "The Queen."
The queen looked at Ru Xi who had been waiting in the outer room with a smile, and asked gently, "How many years have you been in the palace?"
Ruxi obviously didn't know what the queen meant, but she still answered truthfully, "To tell you the truth, Ruxi entered the palace when she was eleven years old, and has been in the palace for more than thirteen years now." She felt her heartbeat calmer, and the prince still stretched out his hand.
With trembling hands, he took the glass of water on the table that was not harmed by Jin Qing, wanting to drink water to calm down his shock.
It was just because he was so frightened that the prince's hands were shaking very badly.
