"Yes, sister!" After responding with a smile, A'luo took the brocade box from the hand of the accompanying maid. After opening it, there were bright red blood swallows inside. "This is a gift I came from the south."
I bought it from a merchant. When I went to the palace last time, I saw that my sister was working hard in the palace day and night, so I brought it to my sister to replenish her health. I hope my sister won't dislike it."
"I am too late to be happy about what you gave me, so why would I dislike it? Speaking of which, the blood swallows sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs last time have just been used up, and the new batch of blood swallows has not arrived yet, so I thought I would use them for a while.
Guan Yan, I didn't expect you to send it here, what a coincidence." After saying that, she smiled and said: "Then I won't be polite to you."
"Sister, it would make people unhappy if they were polite to me." After handing the blood swallow to the palace attendant, A Luo said: "Having said that, no matter how many supplements you take, it is not as important as your own recuperation. I know there are many things in the palace.
, but sister should also pay attention to the balance between work and rest, and don’t tire yourself out.”
Xia Qing sighed softly and said, "I don't know what you are saying. It's just that there are so many things in the palace, someone must take care of them."
"Of course I know this, but my sister is only the queen who co-administers the Sixth Palace and is actually in charge of the Sixth Palace. Why do you have to take over everything."
Xia Qing glanced at A Luo in surprise, "Didn't you hear about what happened in the palace recently? I thought this was why you came to the palace today."
A Luo said doubtfully: "I was unwell before and have been recuperating at home. I know very little about the outside world. Sister, what happened?"
Xia Qing explained the matter of the fifteenth elder brother in detail, and said in a deep voice: "The fifteenth elder brother has been ill twice, but the imperial doctor has never found a cure. The Queen is worried about the fifteenth elder brother day and night.
, where do you have any thoughts about matters in the palace?"
Xiao Shouzi said softly: "Master, it's the third time. I just got the news that my fifteenth brother is sick again."
Upon hearing this, Xia Qing immediately asked nervously: "Is it important? Has the imperial doctor gone?"
"I heard that the attack was not serious, and it only took a long time to stop. It happened that the imperial physician Song was in Kunning Palace at that time, so he could take care of her. However, the prescriptions left by the imperial physician before had no effect."
Xia Qing sighed and said: "I also guessed that it would be useless. Alas, how could such a good person get such an unbelievable disease?"
A Luo said eagerly: "There are so many imperial doctors in the palace, is there really nothing we can do?"
Xia Qing smiled bitterly and said: "If there was a way, those imperial doctors would not hide it. The emperor has said that if the fifteenth elder brother cannot be cured, the entire imperial hospital will be held accountable."
A Luo clutched the handkerchief tightly and said in a panic: "Then... will the fifteenth brother be in danger of his life?"
Xia Qing shook her head and said: "I don't know. The only thing I know is that every time the strange disease attacks, the fifteenth brother's body will become a little weaker, and he is still so young... the situation is really not optimistic."
Hearing this, A Luo could not sit still. He stood up and said, "Sister, I want to go to Kunning Palace to visit, is that okay?"
Xia Qing nodded and said: "Go ahead; when you meet the Queen, please give her more advice and tell her not to worry too much. There will definitely be a solution."
"Yeah." A Luo responded. She was so focused on going to Kunning Palace to visit Yong Yan that she didn't notice the sneer on the corner of Xia Qing's mouth.
After A Luo left, Cuizhu whispered: "Master, when I went to check today, I found..."
Xia Qing raised her hand and said: "I already know about this matter. After waiting for so long, I have finally waited. Finally, the hypocrisy of the past few years has not been in vain." After a moment of pause, she added: "From now on.
, let me, Haosheng, keep an eye on her, be careful, don't let her find out; besides..." His eyes swept over the brocade box held by the palace servant, and he said coldly: "Please ask Dr. Cui to come and check it out again.
Check this box of blood swallows."
Xiao Shouzi's eyelids twitched and he whispered: "Master, do you suspect that Fu Fujin is tampering with you?"
Xia Qing said coolly: "In the past, when she came here, she always pointed out that I shouldn't choose Wu and others for the emperor, but this time she didn't mention it at all, and kept asking me to take care of myself, and even
I specially sent you a box of blood swallows. Why do you care so much about me? Xiao Shouzi, do you think it’s normal?"
Xiao Shouzi lowered his head and thought for a while and said: "It's really wrong to be told like this by the master, but... Fu Fujin is your biological sister, she should not do anything detrimental to you."
Xia Qing flicked her green onion-like nails and stared: "It's true that she is my sister, but don't forget who she worked for before. In terms of relationship, she and that person are better than me."
It's much deeper. As long as that person opens his mouth, I'm afraid she will agree even if she wants to kill me." After a moment of pause, she added: "Anyway, be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years. Now is a critical moment, and I don't want to make any mistakes.
.”
"I understand, I will go now." When Xiao Shouzi went to ask for Dr. Cui, A Luo had already arrived at Kunning Palace. When she saw Xianyue, she ignored the salute and said eagerly: "Master, I heard that I
Brother Fifteen was ill again just now, how is he now?" Although he has become the general Fujin, in front of Xianyue, Aluo is still accustomed to using the previous title.
"We have just stabilized and everything is fine for the time being." When Aluo was relieved, Xianyue said, "Have you been to Yonghe Palace?"
"This slave just came from Yonghe Palace." As he spoke, A'luo lowered his voice and said with a complicated expression: "Master, do you really think that this matter has something to do with...sister?"
"Now I no longer think it is relevant." Xia Yue's words made A Luo's face turn pale, and his voice trembled slightly: "So, Master, have you found evidence?"
"So be it." Saying this, Xianyue took her slightly trembling hands and said with a hint of helplessness: "I know you don't want to believe it, and I don't want to believe it, but this is the fact, A Luo,
She is no longer the person we knew!"
Drop after drop of transparent liquid fell on the back of her hand. It was so hot that she wanted to pull away immediately, as if nothing had happened, but... the development of things would not stop here, and everything would still move towards her final destination.
Development in an undesirable direction.
After a long time, A Luo wiped away the tears remaining on his face and said hoarsely: "I understand, I just went to Yonghe Palace, I followed my master's instructions, pretended not to know about it, and gave me a box of blood swallows."
I gave it to my sister and she accepted it, but I don’t know if she knows how to use it.”
Xianyue shook her head and said: "With her current temperament, except for Hejia and Xiaoshouzi, she will not trust anyone, including you. After all, you left me, I'm afraid you will
After walking out of Yonghe Palace, she asked Imperial Physician Cui to check the box of bird's nests." She had been in and out of Yonghe Palace frequently in the past few years, and she had obviously become Xia Qing's confidant.
