The decayed red door creaked open, and the sun shone stingily into the cold palace, casting a shadow of light.
Bai Zhiqi, wearing a flower-strewn lily skirt, stepped through the light and shadow, and the palace door slowly closed behind her.
The room was extremely dark, and a sense of moisture lingered on the tip of her nose. She waved the silk handkerchief in disgust, "No one is here?" She said, looking around.
"Miss, please go in and take a look." The maid next to you said.
After entering the inner room, they saw that there seemed to be a bulge under the quilt. The maid stopped her feet and turned around to call Bai Zhiqi.
At that time, Li Meiren had no intention of living at all, and she actually hit a pillar. Although the imperial doctor came in time and stopped her bleeding, she was still feeling dizzy and dizzy at the moment.
Her original confidant was transferred elsewhere, and the newly added maidservant was more of a rule than to serve her.
In this case, she would no longer be able to commit suicide.
The palace servants serving and guarding here took advantage of the fact that the sinful concubine was locked up inside, and they were very lazy in their work. No one brought breakfast. Li Mei was very hungry, and she was leaning on the bed with some weakness.
Bai Zhiqi sneered and thought to herself, it's true that she deserved it. She was given several chances, but she couldn't get it.
"Is sister okay?" She walked closer and wanted to sit down by the bed, but she stopped thinking when she saw the thin velvet quilt, so she stood and said, "Sister brought you some porridge, use it when you get up.
How about some?"
Hearing what she said, Li Meiren's heart moved. She followed her instinct and grabbed the food box from the maid's hand, and started swallowing it from the bowl.
After just taking a mouthful, she paused, felt nausea in her throat, and turned her head to spit it out.
Bai Zhiqi quickly took a few steps back, frowned and said to the maid, "Auntie, please bring me a spittoon. Sister Li seems to be very ill, and she can't even use the soup."
The palace maid felt relieved when she heard her words without any intention of giving orders. She bowed and turned around.
Seeing the maid leaving the inner room, Bai Zhiqi changed her expression, avoided the dirty place, lowered her body and lowered her voice, "Didn't Sister Li say anything that shouldn't be said?"
Li Meiren picked up the bowl again and started to devour it. She was in a hurry and dropped the porridge on the bedclothes and clothes, but she didn't dare to ignore it. When she heard this, her whole body trembled.
She seemed to be standing next to some ferocious beast, her eyes full of fear, she stopped eating and shrank to the corner.
Bai Zhiqi changed his smile with satisfaction and looked down at her, feeling coldly in his heart that the work was useless. The porridge that went rancid at all was delicious. But it was not in vain that she went out of her way to get the porridge.
Li Meiren opened her lips and asked after a while, "What are you doing here?"
At this moment, the maid came in with a spittoon.
Bai Zhiqi chuckled softly and said warmly, "Bring me some food for my sister. By the way, I'm ordered to keep an eye on my sister and take the medicine your father sent me."
Although Li Meiren had kept her promise before and never recruited her out, how could she guarantee it in the future? Only a real lunatic would reassure her.
And this medicine can make people completely confused, and even save the effort of trying to recruit a child. As for whether she was really ordered to come here, no one will pursue these details even after taking the medicine.
She glanced at the palace maid on the side. The palace maid was originally sent to watch over Li Meiren, so she had no doubt that he was there and listened to Yu Bai Zhiqi's words.
The palace maid and the maid serving Bai Zhiqi worked together to restrain Li Meiren, pinching her cheeks so that she could not close her mouth.
Li Meiren was like a fish out of water, struggling desperately. But it was all in vain. The pills and a few mouthfuls of cold water were stuffed into her mouth.
Her eyes widened slightly and she wanted to take out the pill.
How could the maid let her go? She covered her mouth, pinched her neck and forced the pill down. The pill was about the size of a fingernail, and even though she had swallowed it, it still left a sluggish feeling in her throat.
She held her throat and kept digging with her fingertips.
The effect of the medicine came on quickly, and the pain spread from her abdomen bit by bit, and then it was like being on a burning fire, and the burning pain was unbearable. But she was still awake at the moment, and she had endured every bit of pain.
There are two masters here, one is in a miserable state and the other is well-dressed.
Bai Zhiqi stepped back, stood there for a while as if watching a show, and said softly, "Sister, my sister's love is over here."
Seeing her delicate appearance, the palace maid was afraid that she wouldn't be able to see this, so she also advised her, "Miss Bai, please stay away. Don't dirty your eyes."
Bai Zhiqi curved the corners of her lips sadly, nodded and left.
Walking out of the inner room, I could no longer suppress my smile.
From then on, there was no more Beauty Li in the palace. She became Crazy Li in the eyes of everyone. She was abandoned by her family and the world, and could be bullied by anyone. From time to time, shrill shouts came from the cold palace, which became a fun for the maids to test their courage.
After taking the medicine, Li Meiren's mind never regained consciousness.
But if she is allowed to be clear for a while, I think she won't regret it.
.
The incident of Luomeixuan's leakage was so big that even if the doors of Chonghua Palace were closed, some news would inevitably leak in.
Concubine Shu took a sip of her tea and after listening to her servant's words, she only said softly, "I knew she was stupid, but I didn't want to be stupid like this." Looking at His Majesty's attitude, don't you know that fighting for favor is useless?
When she was in a daze, someone came from outside to report that Concubine Jin was here. She nodded and invited people in.
The crimson figure walked in slowly, untied her cloak as she walked, and handed it to the maid on the side. Ruan Yuyi nodded as a courtesy and said in a gentle and sweet voice, "How are you doing, sister?"
Concubine Shu took her hand and led her to sit down, "I'm afraid I can't bear to call you 'sister' now. It sounds very awkward."
She smiled casually and said, "Let's just talk about age." She knew what Concubine Shu was referring to.
Both of them silently ignored Li Meiren's affairs and chatted casually.
The tea tasted bland, not like the mellow fragrance in her palace, but simply bitter. Ruan Yuyi frowned slightly at the bitterness.
Seeing this, Concubine Shu said, "This is old tea from previous years. If my sister can't drink it, don't drink it anymore." There was nothing good in her palace to entertain her, except for her.
There will be no visitors in Chonghua Palace.
Hearing this, for fear of hurting her heart, Ruan Yuyi calmed down her expression and said softly, "Sister, please don't drink any more. I'll bring some good ones later."
She originally told His Majesty with a tentative attitude that she hoped to come and see Concubine Shu and have a chat with her, but she didn't want him to agree casually and did not make it difficult for her.
She originally thought that Concubine Shu was still in the position of concubine and could be released from confinement at any time, so the palace people would not dare to neglect her. But now that she saw her, she had underestimated the ability of these palace people to adapt to the changing circumstances.
She secretly thought that when she returned to the palace, she should give the person in charge a beating.
