It can be said that the two of them talked all night long by candlelight, and they didn't go back until daylight came out.
Go back to Qiankun Palace to change into dragon robes [Don’t be fooled by TV movies. Except for formal occasions, such as going to court or offering sacrifices, emperors usually wear gorgeous and solemn but also bulky and cumbersome dragon robes.
Wearing light casual clothes all the time, Qi Baoer went to Ci'an Palace to change into royal robes.
Knowing that she was going to stay in the palace last night, Little Coconut, the all-powerful little father-in-law, had already taken the court clothes she wore when going to court and prepared them in Ci'an Palace without any explanation.
Inside the screen, Qi Bao'er stretched out her hands and Qiu Yu and several palace attendants dressed her together.
"How is your third sister-in-law doing?"
"Prince Lao Xian is concerned that the imperial doctor has just taken a pulse and the situation is improving. He just woke up once and ate more than half a bowl of millet soup." Mrs. An's face has lost the anxious look, but she probably didn't sleep well last night.
, the eyes are a little blue.
She was sitting cross-legged on the couch outside the screen, and the palace servants were dressing her up.
It is said that even if Ci'an Palace is really small, it will not allow a first-grade king and a fourth-grade lady to wash themselves in the same room.
It can be said that Mrs. An really didn't say anything to An Yueying. The medicine An Yueying took contained ingredients to help her sleep. She slept peacefully all night. But Mrs. An, who had been worried about her, was suffering. It can be said that
He didn't close his eyes the whole night, so he kept it beside her bed.
An Yueying finally woke up when it got daylight. Mrs. An finally felt relieved and took care of her herself. After taking a bowl of soup, she fell back to sleep, and then she was ready to go back to her room to rest.
Coincidentally, she happened to meet Qi Baoer when she went out. Mrs. An immediately realized that Prince Xian had come back to change clothes and prepare to go to court, and she also realized where he was now.
It's okay if she's not in the palace, but she's still in the Ci'an Palace. If her deceased wife doesn't pay her respects to the imperial concubine, it would be unjustifiable both emotionally and logically.
Qi Baoer also discovered her, and happened to want to ask about An Yueying's situation, so the two of them went into the same room together to freshen up.
After hearing what Mrs. An said, Qi Baoer felt relieved, "I'll go to court first. Mrs. An can wait in Ci'an Palace. I will take you out of the palace after the court."
As the palace maid was arranging her hair, Mrs. An made no move and only said gratefully: "Thank you, Lord Xian."
Qiu Yu had already practiced the surgery of dressing Qi Bao'er. Now Qi Bao'er was fully dressed. She walked out from behind the screen, nodded to Mrs. An and walked away.
Little Coconut followed closely, but Qiu Yu did not follow her after she came out, but walked to the couch where Mrs. An was sitting.
"Second Madam, Your Majesty has specially ordered your servant to follow you today."
This made Mrs. An, who was already very moved by Qi Baoer, almost shed tears. Fortunately, as a married woman, she was still able to hold her own. She only said a muffled 'hmm' with red eyes.
Mrs. An went early. When she arrived outside the imperial concubine's bedroom, the imperial concubine had not yet gotten up, but there were already people waiting outside the palace earlier than her.
When Jiang Taibin saw the person coming from a distance, a look of disdain appeared on her face, and she stepped forward a few steps with a rather arrogant look on her face, as if she wanted to say something.
But when she saw who was following Mrs. An, her face immediately froze, and she twitched a few times, turning her head to look at the eldest palace maid next to her in a strange way.
——Is that the maid next to Prince Xian?
The eldest maid nodded vaguely towards her and blinked hard.
Concubine Jiang's still pretty and charming face couldn't help but twitch the corners of her mouth several times, but the noble masters in this palace are all good at acting. After turning their heads, it was clear that they wanted to come forward just now.
Jiang Taibin, who was in a troublesome manner, had turned into a concerned look.
"Second Madam An is here? Madam Qi Third Young Master is very nice, isn't she?"
"Concubine Jiang is safe."
Mrs. An did not answer immediately, but stepped forward to salute.
Concubine Jiang hurriedly helped the person up with her own hands, "Mrs. An, there is no need to be polite."
Mrs. An stood up after thanking her, and then she answered what Concubine Jiang had just asked, with a face full of emotion and gratitude, "My little girl has received the grace of the Imperial Concubine, and her health has improved."
Jiang Taibin's smile didn't reach her eyes, "That's good."
Just as the two of them said these words, other concubines and concubines had already arrived one after another.
I don’t know whether it was due to the influence of Mrs. Jiang, or they all recognized the person next to Mrs. An as the personal maid of Prince Xian. In short, they all had a good attitude towards Mrs. An, even if they were not particularly kind.
At least he didn't make things difficult.
After the concubines moved into Ci'an Palace, the matter of greetings in the late Emperor's harem that seemed to have been deliberately omitted was picked up again. Every day, the concubines would go to the imperial concubine for a formality.
However, because the Imperial Concubine likes to be quiet, she does not like those vain things, so the daily greetings are really just a formality.
It was the same today. Everyone went in to say hello to the Imperial Concubine, and then they left consciously.
Only Mrs. An was left behind by the imperial concubine.
By the time Qi Baoer went to Ci'an Palace for the next court session, An Yueying had already woken up and was ready to leave the palace.
Qi Baoer did not stay any longer. After bidding farewell to the Imperial Concubine, he personally sent An Yueying to General Qi's Mansion.
Mrs. An Er was worried about her daughter who still couldn't move at will, so she followed her.
-
After Qi Baoer returned to Prince Xian's Mansion, he went straight to Shoukang Courtyard and received a reply from Nanny Lin. It turned out that the two elders were still awake??
Her eyes were deep and dark, and she opened the door and went in without paying attention to Nanny Lin, who was not blocking her tightly at all.
When I walked to the bed and took a look, I saw two heads, their hair already combed and even wearing headdresses, lying peacefully with their eyes closed.
Of course, if the eyeballs under their eyelids don't move randomly, they might look a little lifelike.
Qi Baoer waved his hand and put the round stool next to the bed. After sitting on it, he silently just stared at the two elders.
It's like a game, whoever can't help it first loses.
It was obvious that there was a slight difference in concentration between the two old men. Within a few breaths, first Old Mrs. Tian's breathing became erratic, and then Old Man Qi's breathing became heavier.
Then, as if they had agreed upon it, they both opened their eyes to take a peek, and they both opened the same eye.
It is said that when young children saw this scene, no matter how angry they were, most of them calmed down.
However, Qi Baoer still stared at the two of them with expressionless eyes.
"You are really capable. You are kneeling in the snow on this cold day. Have you already mastered the Iron Leg Kung Fu, or do you think that no matter how lucky you are, the cold weather has to avoid you?"
"If Third Brother makes a mistake, just punish him. I'll slap him with a military stick without blinking an eye. Why are you, who are over a hundred years old in total, following along to join in the fun?"
