A lot of questions appeared in her mind, and the more she thought about it, the more confused her mind became. She shook her head and told herself that it must be a coincidence, and they couldn't still be alive!
Situ Yan said firmly in her heart, trying to calm herself down. She must not let herself get confused. Thinking of this, her mood eased a little. She picked up the blue and white porcelain tea cup on the table, took a few sips, and then calmly thought and analyzed it.
, this must be caused by someone. Who knows what happened back then? No one should know, but...
At this time, Fanghua's respectful reporting voice interrupted Situ Yan's thoughts, "Your Majesty, the female officer from Huining Palace is here."
"Yun Jingchu? What is she doing here?" Situ Yan raised her eyes, thought about it, and said coldly: "Let her come in."
Soon, Yun Jingchu followed Fanghua and walked in, holding an exquisite brocade box in her hand.
Yun Jingchu walked to the center of the hall, bowed her body respectfully and said, "Slave, please see the Queen."
"What's the matter?" Situ Yan glanced coldly at the person who was bowing down. She didn't know why, but this Yun Jingchu always gave her a bad feeling.
"Concubine Hui specially asked this slave to deliver the gift." Yun Jingchu raised her head, her eyes fell into a pair of domineering eyes. She suddenly felt her breath suffocated, and the strong resentment buried deep in her heart surged up quickly. She wished she could step forward immediately and put him away.
The woman in front of me was cut into pieces by a thousand cuts.
"Giving a gift?" Situ Yan frowned slightly, thinking secretly in her heart, what kind of medicine is this Concubine Hui selling in the gourd?
Yun Jingchu tried hard to restrain her emotions, presented the box in her hands with both hands, and said respectfully: "This is the hairpin that Empress Hui asked her servant to bring to you. It is a handmade hairpin, one of a kind. This wood is a precious wood from the Western Regions, but
It has the effect of warding off evil spirits.”
It seems that Concubine Hui still knows how to please the queen. Situ Yan raised a proud smile on her lips, put down the blue and white porcelain cup in her hand, and said slowly in a soft voice: "Then thank Sister Concubine Hui for me."
As soon as he finished speaking, his eyes fell on the brocade box. As Yun Jingchu slowly opened it, he saw the hairpin lying quietly——
Situ Yan's hand trembled and she knocked over the tea cup that was about to be placed on the table. She will never forget this hairpin until she dies!
Situ Yan's face turned pale at this moment. She would never forget this hairpin even if she died. She looked at the hairpin in front of her in disbelief. Her body began to tremble unconsciously. She blinked her eyes, as if to hide something, and suddenly the corners of her mouth suddenly
He smiled elegantly and said, "It's a really nice hairpin. I like it very much."
If you have the ability, just keep pretending, but I want to see how long you keep pretending. Yun Jingchu's heart tightened, her fists clenched tightly, her body tensed, suppressing the anger in her heart, and said calmly:
"As long as the Queen likes it."
After saying that, Yun Jingchu put down the box. Just before leaving, Yun Jingchu glanced at Situ Yan again. Seeing the unconcealable fear in her eyes, she quickly looked away, and a coldness immediately appeared at the corner of her mouth.
Then leave quickly...
Watching Yun Jingchu leave, Fanghua next to her looked at the hairpin in the brocade box. This hairpin was so exquisite. It seemed that Concubine Hui wanted to please her master. Otherwise, why would she bear the pain and give up her love? I thought
, Fanghua took the box and said with admiration: "Mother, this hairpin——"
Before she finished speaking, Situ Yan waved her arm, and the hairpin and the box flew out of Fanghua's hand instantly, "Take it and burn it immediately! Immediately!" Situ Yan seemed to have suddenly changed his face, and even
Standing up, he stepped hard on the hairpin on the ground, glanced at Qiaoyu angrily, and shouted: "Never show up in front of me again! Hurry!"
Fanghua was so frightened by Situ Yan's actions that she knelt down. Under Situ Yan's roar, she got up tremblingly, picked up the brocade box and hairpin on the ground, and ran away. She didn't know why the Queen was so disrespectful.
Love this hairpin.
Situ Yan's eyes widened with anger, and she sat quietly in the luxurious hall, her white hands pulling hard on the armrests of the imperial concubine's chair, her soft little face turned ferocious with anger, and she shouted angrily, "Concubine Hui, what on earth do you want to do?
?Do you think I am easy to bully?"
It's late at night, and the palace seems very quiet tonight.
In the bedroom of Fengyi Hall, there are cloud-top sandalwood beams, luminous pearl lamps, crystal curtains, and gold-plated pillar foundations. Everywhere is luxurious. Situ Yan on the phoenix couch is sleeping deeply at this time, her muscles are like gelatin, and her energy is like orchid.
Suddenly, the breeze floated the white tent, making her feel a little cold, and an inexplicable chill spread from her spine upwards, as terrifying as being crawled up by a cold poisonous snake...
Suddenly, Situ Yan suddenly opened her eyes——
"Ah!" Situ Yan couldn't help shouting, and her pupils expanded infinitely out of fear, staring at one place, "Who are you! What are you doing here!" In a trance, a woman wearing white clothes was like a ghost beside the bed.
She stood there like that, with her long hair pouring down, even covering her face. It wasn't that she couldn't see her face clearly, but that her face was so bloody that it was so bloody that she didn't dare to look at it.
Situ Yan's eyes slowly moved downwards, and her whole body froze. What she was holding tightly in her pale and bloodless hands was... that butterfly-shaped hairpin!
Situ Yan couldn't help but let out a breath of cold air, pushed herself up and moved to the corner of the bed, hugging the quilt tightly and shrinking into a ball.
The woman in white didn't let her go. She moved instantly and rushed towards her lightly.
Situ Yan stepped back a few more times, her whole body trembling. It could be seen how shocked she was at this moment, her pupils were wide open, and her eyes were filled with fear.
When the breeze blew again, blowing the hair of the woman in white, the originally bloody face instantly turned into a stunning little face.
The two began to look at each other. They were two identical faces, like looking into a mirror, with no difference at all. A ghostly and hollow voice instantly echoed in the room, "Xuan'er, give it back to me, give it back to me
…”
"Sister, please let me go! Let me go!" Situ Yan was trembling with fear. She grabbed the sheets with both hands and covered her head. She closed her eyes and did not dare to look.
After a while, Situ Yan listened outside and found that there was no movement. She immediately opened the quilt and found that everything in front of her was normal and there was nothing. It was quiet as if nothing had happened. She exhaled and comforted herself.
It's an illusion...
Suddenly, another face with bruised flesh and blood appeared in the eyes. Except for the good eyes, the face was full of fleshy bumps. It was her again.
"No, no, no, ah..." Situ Yan couldn't help but screamed, and she immediately sat up.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty..." Xiangling hurriedly ran to Fengtan and called out softly. She just heard her shouting, so she came over to serve her. She saw that her face was pale, her forehead was dripping with sweat, and her eyes were filled with tears.
Fearful, she immediately comforted her, but the Queen pushed her away and said, "Your Majesty, this servant is Xiangling!"
Xiangling? Only then did Situ Yan wake up from her trance. She saw clearly that the person in front of her was Xiangling, but her eyes were still a little dull. When Xiangling saw the situation, she immediately gave her a glass of water, "My queen, are you doing this?"
Nightmare?"
After drinking a glass of water to calm down her shock, she suddenly realized that it was just a dream, but this dream was so real. Situ Yan was not relieved because it was a dream, but she was shaking even harder. In the dream
That person is her sister, she is sure! Has she come to find her? Thinking of this, Situ Yan yelled in panic: "Xiang Ling, light all the lights, you are all waiting aside, don't leave.
"
That night, the lights in Fengyi Palace were brightly lit, but Situ Yan had been suffering from insomnia until dawn, unable to fall asleep at all...
***
In Huining Palace, Green Clothes carefully carried the medicine into the hall and said respectfully to Yun Jingchu: "Jingchu, Concubine Hui's medicine is ready."
One end of the dark brown concoction entered the room, and an endless bitterness suddenly spread in the air. Yun Jingchu frowned and took it. Just when she was about to turn around and bring it to Concubine Hui, there was a faint warm aroma of rosemary mixed with strong bitterness.
The smell of the medicine was almost inaudible. Yun Jingchu stopped, raised her head and asked Luyi: "Is there anything added to this medicine?"
Luyi shook his head, "No, it's all based on the imperial doctor's house."
Yun Jingchu frowned, her beautiful eyes flashed slightly, and she asked: "When you were decoction, did it pass through the hands of others?"
Lu Yi shook his head and asked with a puzzled look on his face: "No, I fried them all with my own hands. What's wrong?"
Yun Jingchu didn't answer silently. She had carefully read the imperial doctor's prescriptions. They were all herbs used to supplement the prescriptions. There was no such thing as rosemary. So why did this medicine contain this kind of flavor?
?
"Green clothes, are there any flowers that Concubine Hui cannot touch?" Yun Jingchu suddenly felt something in her heart and asked.
Luyi thought for a moment, and then said: Concubine Hui does have a kind of flower that cannot be touched, and that is rosemary. I remember that I accidentally touched rosemary once before, and I got a lot of rashes on my body. The imperial doctor said that fortunately it was just a flower that was not touched.
Be careful when touching it. If you accidentally eat it and get into trouble, everyone in Huining Palace will know about it."
So that's it. Yun Jingchu's eyes flashed and she said nonchalantly: "No, I just think your medicine is good..."
Luyi looked ignorant, thinking that Yun Jingchu was praising her, so she smiled happily.
It seems that Situ Yan was not frightened to death yesterday, and became restless again, turning from overt to covert plotting to frame her up. Yun Jingchu's heart sank. At this time, why didn't she teach her a lesson?
"Okay, you go down first, I'm going to give it to Concubine Hui." Yun Jingchu said calmly, and walked into Concubine Hui's bedroom with the medicine.
At this time, a figure who had been hiding outside the hall peeped secretly, watching Yun Jingchu enter the back room with medicine, and then quickly left...
After a while, Yun Jingchu took out the bowl of intact medicine, poured it directly into the potted plant on the side, and sat quietly in the hall, silently waiting for some movement...
