This witticism made the emperor laugh. He pointed to the void and tapped her forehead to call, "Come here."
Eunuch Qi came in quickly, "Your Majesty."
"Have someone sort out the main room on the left side of the hall. Anle will rest there tonight."
The main room in the left hall?
Mr. Qi was startled for a moment. The left-hand hall was originally a place reserved by emperors for generations for their relatives who were close to the royal family to spend the night occasionally. However, during the decades of his reign, because the only wise king who was close to the emperor was in the palace, the emperor
A palace was left for him, but other royal family members were not close to the emperor, so no one had ever stayed in the left hall.
The faces of the old Qi family were so red that Father Qi wanted to sing a song.
However, all these thoughts in his mind did not affect Eunuch Qi's response speed at all. After accepting the order with a 'yes', he ran out to make arrangements, and because he was so happy, he ran much faster than usual.
As soon as Qi Baoer woke up and asked her grandma to get dressed, she got a piece of news:
——Lan Guiren, who was in the side hall of Ganquan Palace last night, slipped and fell when he got up at night. The fall was quite coincidental. His head happened to hit the threshold, and he suffered a bloody head on the spot.
I fainted and haven't woken up yet.
Xiaodouzi, who served Qi Bao'er when he was called by Eunuch Qi, spoke very interestingly. Qi Bao'er listened to his ramble like a storyteller while eating the royal meal specially reserved by the emperor, which also gave him a unique flavor.
——Because Lan Guiren was so favored, it was also due to her character. Not only her family members outside the palace were nowhere to be found, but she acted arrogantly inside the palace, and even her palace mates were also a little confused.
Be sure of your own identity.
The palace gates in the harem have rules handed down from the ancestors and must be unlocked on time. Unless there are special circumstances, such as a sudden illness or poisoning in the middle of the night and other major events that wait for no one, the emperor or the person in charge of the harem must be there.
After the powerful person agrees, he will ask the chamberlain who is in charge of the keys to open the door.
Of course, there are a lot of troubles involved, but there are patrolling inner guards at night. If there is an emergency, the inner guards can help report to the emperor or the person in charge of the harem. This is also what happens after the key is released at night in the harem.
Normal procedure in case of emergency.
But the people in Lan Guiren's palace were so arrogant that someone actually climbed up the wall and came out to find the emperor;
It was also unlucky that the concubine of the Zhongcui Palace had a stomachache last night. Concubine Li, who had the power to assist the harem, went to see the imperial doctor.
Just as the palace attendants from Zhongcui Palace invited the imperial doctor to turn around, they met Lan Guiren's men who were sneaking towards Qiankun Palace.
After Lan Guiren became favored, he didn't pay much attention to the other concubines in the harem, and offended many people. Concubine Hua was one of them, and she was quite hated.
"The Emperor once gave the Concubine Hua a plum blossom jade hairpin. The Concubine Hua regarded it as a treasure and wore it on her head almost every day.
Once, Empress Hua Concubine met Lan Guiren in the imperial garden, and for some reason they had a quarrel. Lan Guiren pushed Concubine Hua Concubine, and the hosta fell to the ground and broke into two pieces."
At this point, the feud between Hua Concubine and Lan Guiren was finally concluded.
If there is enmity between masters, there will also be enmity among servants.
When the palace attendants of Zhongcui Palace saw that the palace attendant beside Lan Guiren was heading to Qiankun Palace so late, with a hurried expression, they immediately guessed that something had happened to Lan Guiren.
He immediately stepped forward and stopped the palace man, gagged him and handed him over to the patrolling inner prisoner.
That palace man climbed out of the wall without following the rules. Patrolling the inner prison was under the direct control of Qi Gong. He always did things strictly and did not care about which palace you were from. If you made a mistake, it was a mistake. You should arrest him first.
Lan Guiren didn't know that something had happened to her, and no one went to ask for an imperial doctor. However, when the palace door opened this morning, Concubine Li found out about the incident and sent someone to report it.
The imperial doctor examined Lan Guiren's injuries.
Xiaodouzi shook his head with pity and pity on his face, "The original imperial doctor said that it would be better if treated early, but the treatment was too long, and Mr. Lan may not wake up in his lifetime."
Qi Baoer chewed the buns and rolled his eyes silently in his mind: There were so many lucky fates, but they were just the result of the emperor's hand.
Qi Baoer glanced at the honest and cute little housekeeper in front of her. As far as she knew, Xiaodouzi was the adopted grandson of Eunuch Qi. At first, she thought he was the same cautious person as Eunuch Qi.
I never thought that he would be a talkative person who seemed to have no agenda.
However, Qi Bao'er also knew that Xiaodouzi's lack of scheming was only superficial. In this palace, the truly scheming people would have been in either a dry well or a lake.
After breakfast, the emperor still didn't come back from the morning court. Qi Bao'er waited for about half an hour and the emperor still didn't come back. It seemed that there was a lot to say about the morning court today.
Qi Bao'er didn't wait any longer. He left a large baggage that could hold a piece of tiger skin for Xiaodouzi to forward to the emperor, and then left the palace.
After leaving the palace, she did not return home, but went straight out of the city.
She said that the one who came here was already involved in the inner palace, why don’t you run away quickly!
By the time the emperor returned to Qiankun Palace, all the Qibaoers had already left the capital.
Xiaodouzi knelt down and held up the big bundle with both hands, "Your Majesty, this is what Princess Anle left for the Emperor. Princess Anle said that the Emperor will understand after reading it."
Mr. Qi, who was following the emperor, was about to step forward to get the baggage, but the emperor took a step ahead.
"Where's the princess?"
"Replying to the emperor, Princess Anle waited for the emperor for a long time after breakfast. Later, Princess Anle said that she had to rush back to the south, so she left this baggage and left."
The emperor carried the bundle into the palace without saying a word. His calm face made it impossible to tell whether he was in a good or bad mood at the moment.
It wasn't until he saw the emperor sitting on one side of the couch and beginning to unpack his luggage that Eunuch Qi waved his hand towards Xiaodouzi, who was still kneeling, and motioned for him to 'get out'.
Xiaodouzi quickly climbed up and retreated silently.
The contents of the bag were clearly visible. There was only a piece of pure black tiger skin, and on top of the black tiger skin was a small cloth bag as big as the emperor's palm.
After opening the small cloth, it was actually wrapped with several layers of oil paper. The emperor removed one layer and another just like a blind box.
The emperor sneered: "What kind of treasure is it? It's wrapped in layers like this."
Eunuch Qi saw that the emperor was in a good mood, so he dared to smile and add, "The princess is still a little childish sometimes."
The emperor glanced at Eunuch Qi with a half-smile, "Don't underestimate Anle. Her age and height are all used to trick people. If you really want to compete with her in terms of brains, Eunuch Qi, an old man like you, may not be able to compare."
Beat her."
Do you think I don’t know the extent of your personal relationship with Anle?
It's just that he doesn't mind.
Eunuch Qi smiled and responded repeatedly, "That is to say, the emperor will love the old slave. That's why he said that the old slave has brains."
The emperor was quite pleased with the compliments he had for his discernment, and he smiled and continued to open the oil paper package.
When the contents of the oil paper bag were revealed, Eunuch Qi gasped, "Hiss~ What a good thing, Your Majesty, Princess, Princess... you are really filial."
