His Majesty Yongzheng, who had been reviewing the memorials for two hours, finally put down his hand and asked, "How is the Queen's health?"
The deputy chief eunuch Wang Chaoqing hurriedly stepped forward and bowed: "My mistress has been ill for ten days, and the green card has not been put back on yet."
Yongzheng was slightly confused. The informant placed in Zhongcuigong had reported earlier that the queen had a disorder of the moon... This kind of disease is indeed not easy to publicize, and it is not suitable to be given a bad name.
But... why has the monthly letter been out of tune for so long?
Wang Chaoqing said cautiously: "Master, today is the fifteenth day." - This is to test the emperor. Do you want to go and see?
However, Yongzheng said calmly: "I will take over the Qian Palace."
Wang Chaoqing: Chengqian Palace? Not Zhongcui Palace??
The imperial minister did not dare to ask, so Ma Liu prepared the dragon carriage and at the same time notified Concubine Yu who was the head of Qian Palace.
Whenever the emperor visits the harem, he will notify the emperor in advance so that the ladies can be prepared, unless the emperor has other instructions.
So after Shu Jin got the letter, he quickly got up from his bed. It was time to touch up his makeup and change his clothes. Logically speaking, Li Guiren from the side hall should have been called over early to welcome him. After all, the emperor was visiting Chengqian Palace.
, all the concubines in Chengqian Palace are disrespectful.
But since Li Guiren was unwilling to compete for favor, Shu Jin did not force him. He just asked someone to tell Li Guiren that if the emperor asked about it, he would excuse her and reassure her that the cat was in the side hall.
In addition, they tidied up Fatty Tianshen to look more festive and pleasant, and the two mothers went out of the main hall to greet Yongzheng.
This is the official process for picking up a concubine.
Shu Jin rarely saw the emperor wearing dragon robes. Usually they were dark blue, azurite and other deep and atmospheric colors, but they really made him look older. I wonder if he thought he was in his forties or fifties...
Shu Jin was disrespectfully complaining about His Majesty the Emperor in his heart, but on his face he was very obedient. He even offered him a cup of fragrant tea himself, "The Emperor looks very haggard. He must be busy with government affairs." - Looking at the truth.
Appear old.
Yinzhen just said a faint "Hmm", took a sip of tea, and then raised his eyes to look at Concubine Yu, "I see you are getting richer and richer."
Shu Jin smiled naively, "In recent days, the queen has been exempted from greetings, and I have slept well, so naturally I eat more deliciously."
Yinzhen: ...Why does Geng look more and more stupid? I went to visit Nian the day before yesterday, and Nian even made some innuendo, asking me if the queen was happy?
It’s really ridiculous! I’ve never touched her, how can I be happy?!
Women, as they get older, always have some problems, and it is not easy to publicize such problems. Naturally, Yinzhen did not tell Nian.
"You're not curious about what disease the queen has." Yinzhen couldn't help but said.
Shu Jin smiled sarcastically: "I am naturally a little curious, but since the Queen said it was just a minor illness, I think it won't be a problem."
Yinzhen nodded slightly, "It is indeed your advantage that you don't ask around or gossip."
I mean, who has been asking around and gossiping recently?
Shu Jin was startled, and then said immediately: "Recently, there are rumors in the harem that the Queen is not ill, but happy." She carefully looked at Uncle Yongzheng's old face.
Yinzhen's face turned dark, where did she get the joy?!
Shu Jin:-_-||So it really isn’t the case...
Shu Jin laughed sarcastically: "If there is happiness in the palace, it will be a first-class good thing. But I don't think so."
"Oh?" Although this Geng looks stupid, he is actually a transparent person among women.
Shu Jin hurriedly explained: "If it were such a big happy event, how could the Queen hide it?"
Yinzhen nodded: "Indeed, with the queen's temperament, I'm afraid she would have wanted to shout so loudly that the entire harem would know about it."
Shu Jin: You really understand your wife.
By the way, today is the fifteenth day. If you don't want to see your sick wife, why are you here?
"Your Majesty, today is the fifteenth day. If you are curious about the Queen's condition, why not go and see for yourself." Shu Jin couldn't help but remind Yong Zheng. Oh my god, if you don't go to Zhongcui Palace today, the Queen will definitely hate me again!
Yinzhen raised his eyebrows: "You really care about the queen!"
Shu Jin kept smiling: "I just don't want to make the queen angry."
Yinzhen naturally understood what Geng meant and said: "Since you are also curious about the queen's condition, why not come with me to Zhongcui Palace!"
Shu Jin:???When you go to see your eldest wife, you have to bring a younger wife with you?! What kind of brain circuit is this?!
But, Shu Jin is really curious about what kind of medicine is sold in the queen's gourd.
Okay, just go.
In Zhongcui Palace, the queen's face was pale and sallow. At this moment, she was leaning on the beauty's couch. Her whole body seemed to have been drained of energy and was weak.
At this time, Cui Jinzhong, the leader of the eunuchs, walked in quickly and bowed to report: "Master, your Majesty, please send a message from the emperor, saying that the emperor will come to visit you later."
The Queen is finally here, the Emperor is finally here!
"Come here, help me dress up quickly!"
Coming to the familiar Zhongcui Palace, and coming with the emperor, this feeling is really a bit subtle.
As soon as they walked outside the main hall, they saw the palace door opened, and the queen was supported by two palace maids on one side and the other on the right. It could be seen with the naked eye that the queen looked very weak. Shu Jin couldn't help but wonder, what exactly is this eldest sister?
What disease do you have?
Although the queen looked haggard, her eyes were filled with joy. However, the moment she saw Concubine Yu, she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
Shu Jin quickly blessed his body and said, "Greetings to the Queen."
The queen came back to her senses and hurriedly met with the emperor. She couldn't help but ask: "Why did Concubine Yu...come with the emperor?"
Yinzhen just said lightly: "I was just in Chengqian Palace."
The queen couldn't help but wonder to herself, could it be that Concubine Yu persuaded the emperor to come to visit me? The queen felt panicked for a moment. She had clearly asked someone to report the emperor's condition a long time ago, but the emperor delayed coming to visit, so she had no choice but to continue to be ill.
, after procrastinating for so many days, the emperor finally came, and it was Concubine Yu who persuaded him to come?
After entering the palace, the emperor and the empress sat down, but they saw that the queen was sitting unsteadily. Shu Jin wondered, what happened to the queen? It seemed like she had been bitten by a vampire!
"The Queen looks bad. I wonder what medicine the imperial doctor has prescribed for you this week? Why is it not feeling better?" Shu Jin was very confused.
The Queen was confused. These words should have come from the Emperor! The Queen couldn't help but look at her husband, but he was sitting on the Luohan couch without any movement, with an indifferent look on his face, and he didn't care about her at all!
The queen had to force herself to smile: "It's just a woman's minor problem. Doctor Zhou said it doesn't matter, just drink more red date and ginger soup."
Red dates and ginger soup??
At the same time, Shu Jin, a woman, suddenly realized that the co-authorship was discordant with her aunt!
No wonder the queen was so secretive and didn't ask her concubines to attend to her illness, nor did she say what kind of illness she had!
