Wei Jingxuan said disapprovingly: "It doesn't matter, the more greedy he is, the better. Only those with weaknesses can control and exploit him." At this point, she added: "Maybe Huang Ying already knows what happened to the twelfth brother.
.”
Mao Gui thought about it and said, "Then... I will find another opportunity to ask him tomorrow."
"No need, this matter is extraordinary. He won't tell you easily. Let's talk about it later. The most important thing now is the emperor's side. I hope everything goes well." After that, she added: "The side of Yonghe Palace.
how?"
"When I get back to the master, everything is the same as before. There is nothing abnormal. Brother Eleven probably has never associated Li Jifeng with the master. Maybe he doesn't take it seriously at all. Even Concubine Hui doesn't tell you. You don't have to be overly concerned.
Worry."
His answer made Wei Jingxuan's eyes light up. After a while, Qiaoyu walked in. What was unexpected was that Xia Qing came in with her.
Ever since the two of them broke up, they have become like fire and water, vowing to be incompatible. Today, she just mentioned Yonghe Palace, but in the blink of an eye, Xia Qing appeared in front of her. It was really... a bit strange.
After Wei Jingxuan didn't see any action for a long time, Xia Qing said with a smile but not a smile: "What's the matter, your concubine doesn't like me coming over?"
Wei Jingxuan came back to her senses, quickly stood up and saluted, and then said with a smile on her face: "Your Majesty is willing to come to Yongshou Palace. It's too late for me to be happy. How can I not like it? Please sit down quickly." After saying this, she said to Shang Zhan.
Qiaoyu there said: "Why don't you hurry up and make tea? Remember to use Lu'an melon slices."
Xia Qing said: "After Concubine Ying tasted Liu'an melon slices once at your concubine's place, she has always thought about it. She often said that it would be good if Grain Rain comes soon, so that fresh Liu'an melon slices can be brought to the palace as tribute."
"I said before that I asked the imperial concubine to take some with her, but she refused to accept anything she said." Faced with her words, Xia Qing smiled and said: "The imperial concubine has always been considerate of others, so how could she be willing to take away the concubine's property?"
Okay."
Wei Jingxuan smiled along with her and said tentatively: "I wonder why your Majesty came here in the snow?"
Xia Qing took the tea handed over by Qiaoyu and said: "It's nothing. When I passed by the House of Internal Affairs just now, I saw Qiaoyu arguing with someone, but I went over and asked, and it turned out that it was about the charcoal fire.
.”
Qiaoyu said at the side: "I went to the House of Internal Affairs to get some silver charcoal, but the steward said there was no more silver charcoal and asked me to make do with the original ones. But those charcoals, as long as there is a fire, the room will be full of smoke.
It worked, but the servant was so angry that he started arguing with him."
"I can't blame the steward of the Ministry of Internal Affairs for this matter. I also asked, and it is true that they have just been used up, and the new ones have not been sent yet. Before coming here, I have asked Xiao Shouzi to go to Yonghe Palace to get some silver charcoal, which should be enough.
Send it to Xintan."
When Wei Jingxuan heard this, she quickly declined and said: "What makes this happen? Your Majesty is still..." Before she could finish her words, Xia Qing had already shaken her hand and said with a pleasant expression: "You and I entered the palace together in the third year of Qianlong's reign, and we were married one after another.
The emperor's concubines, we have known each other for more than 20 years, do you still need to be polite to me about this trivial matter? Besides, you can bear the cold, but the two princesses can't. What if they get sick? "
Xia Qing's hands were as cold as snow, which made Wei Jingxuan's whole body feel cold. She smiled and said, "In this case, I would be disrespectful to refuse. Thank you for your generous gift."
Xia Qing nodded with satisfaction and immediately said: "By the way, has your concubine sent anyone to Ziyun Temple recently?"
Wei Jingxuan was a little surprised by her question. She shook her head and said, "I have never sent anyone there. Why do you ask me this?"
Xia Qing sighed and said: "Although the second young lady has become a monk, her mind seems to have not been calm yet. Your concubine should send more people to check on her in the future to prevent her from making a big mistake and trying to make up for it later."
It’s too late.”
Wei Jingxuan's eyes twitched, and she said, "I forgive you for not understanding what I mean. Xiuyan... what did she do?"
"Love is the most elusive word and the most difficult to end." After saying these words with unclear meaning, Xia Qing put down the half-drunk tea cup and said: "Okay, I still have some things to do.
I'm going back first, if the silver charcoal sent is not enough, my concubine can talk to me."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." After sending Xia Qing out, Qiaoyu came back and said with surprise: "Concubine Hui changed her temper today. Why is she suddenly so good to the master? Just now she said she would come to Yongshou Palace with her slaves.
, it really shocked this slave."
Mao Gui's thoughts were deeper than Qiaoyu's, and he immediately said: "Master, Concubine Hui and you have always been incompatible with each other, and her sudden appearance must be someone else's purpose."
Wei Jingxuan narrowed her eyes slightly and said coldly: "I have also noticed it, and her purpose should be on Xiuyan. What she said just now..." Her eyelids twitched suddenly, and she said in shock: "Is it possible that Xiuyan
Did you go find Brother Six again?"
"If what Concubine Hui said is true, it should be what the master said. It's just that the servant can't understand. The second lady is closely related to the master. The more she makes mistakes, the happier Concubine Hui will be. Why should she go out of her way to tell the master?
First of all, isn’t she harming her own interests? It’s impossible that Concubine Hui suddenly figured it out and stopped being an enemy of her master.”
Wei Jingxuan said without thinking: "It can be said that her parents and brothers were all injured at the hands of this palace. Not to mention that this hatred has only happened after so many years. Even if it is twenty or thirty years later, she will not let it go. However,
...I really can’t figure out her intentions.”
Wei Jingxuan thought for a long time, but still had no clue, so she had to turn around and said: "Qiaoyu, you go out of the palace tomorrow and ask Xiuyan if she has really had a private meeting with Brother Six. If so..." She stroked the throbbing
The forehead said: "You should advise her carefully and be careful to avoid backfire."
"Save it for me, slave." When Qiaoyu agreed, a palace servant came in with medicine and said, "Master, it's time for you to drink the medicine."
Wei Jingxuan asked Mao Gui to take the prescription presented by Wang Yuanping last time to many famous doctors outside the palace for examination. They all said that it was an excellent health-replenishing prescription and that taking it for a long time would be of great benefit to the body.
Seeing that many doctors praised this prescription as a good one, Wei Jingxuan felt relieved and asked the palace servants to prepare medicine according to the prescription and give it to her every day, in the hope that she could be nursed back to health early and have a baby again. As for Wang Yuanping, he also checked it out.
Yes, her son indeed owed a lot of money to the brothel, and he did not repay the debt until he took 500 taels from her.
After Wei Jingxuan drank the medicine, Qiaoyu said: "Master, it will be much more convenient for us to have Dr. Wang help us in the future."
