Chapter 375: The Concubine Xian delivers medicine to test her voice
At the end of July, the weather gradually cooled down.
There was dew in the morning. Xue Hengzhao and Yin Shu got up early to pick flowers and came back. The tips of their embroidered shoes were wet.
Xue Hengzhao walked in front, Yinshu held an armful of flowers in his arms, but kept saying: "Sister Hengzhao, you are so clever in thinking, and the flowers you put out are indescribably beautiful.
The Empress Dowager originally did not offer flowers in her room, because the fragrance of flowers disturbed the fragrance of the Buddha, which was not good. But since you put a vase of flowers in that day, the Empress Dowager admired them for half a day. From then on, she wanted them every day.
Already."
"The doors and windows are all open at this time of year, and the flowers I picked have no fragrance." Xue Hengzhao said, "If you want to learn, I can just take the time to teach you every day. It's actually not difficult."
Yin Shu was surprised and happy when he heard this, and said: "Sister, you are really talented. If it were someone else, you wouldn't be willing to teach others if you have such a method."
Xue Hengzhao only regarded these as fun things. When she was at her old house in Dongdu, she had nothing to do and had to learn something to pass the time.
But she is also extremely smart. What often takes others a year and a half to master, she acquires the essence in less than half a month.
When she finally had nothing to learn, she met her master.
What I learned was the most difficult astrology, geography, and maneuvering.
Xue Hengzhao put the flowers in, but the concubine was not in the house, but went to the Zen room to meditate.
Xue Hengzhao then turned around and came out, just as Concubine Xian came with two maids.
Young Master Xue Hengzhao had no choice but to step forward to greet her. Concubine Xian smiled and said, "I was passing by here and wanted to say hello to the Concubine."
"It's a bit unlucky that the Concubine Xian is here. The Concubine is worshiping the Buddha in the meditation hall at the moment. She will not come out for an hour." Xue Hengzhao said.
"Oh, look at me, my memory is bad as I get older, so I forgot about this." Concubine Xian laughed at herself, "The weather is nice, and I am tired from walking. I wonder if I can ask for some tea.
?”
Xue Hengzhao asked her to come in and sit down. Concubine Xian said, "No need, it's cool in the yard."
"Your Majesty, you are so polite. I will go and bring you some tea right now." Xue Hengzhao said and brewed a bowl of tea. "It takes a lot of effort to order the tea. I'm afraid your Majesty will have to wait too long. This is what the Imperial Concubine often drinks on weekdays.
The white peony, I wonder if the empress can get used to drinking it?"
"I'm actually just a rough person. I don't know how to taste tea or make incense. I only know how to drink tea to quench my thirst. Naturally, everything in the palace is good, so there's no reason why I can't get used to drinking it." Concubine Xian
The tone is easy-going.
Concubine Xian drank a cup of tea and then stood up and said, "I won't disturb you anymore. Thank you for the tea."
"My servant will see you off." Xue Hengzhao said and followed Concubine Xian out.
Seeing that there was no one around, Concubine Xian said, "Do you know where Liang Jing went?"
"How could this slave know?" Xue Hengzhao smiled, "Since I can't leave the palace, I don't know the details of the whole matter. The queen asked me, but I was really confused."
Concubine Xian looked at Xue Hengzhao without saying anything for a long time, but Xue Hengzhao only looked calm and did not feel uncomfortable at all.
After a long time, Concubine Xian spoke again: "Yao Wanyi said that he would get rid of you, but this job fell on me again."
"Then what are you going to do?" Xue Hengzhao didn't panic at all.
"They have determined that you and Liang Jing are in the same group, and they are just trying to avoid making trouble in the palace." Concubine Xian said, "They just want to use tricks secretly to kill you.
You know that I admire your talents very much. In this situation, it is impossible for Concubine Fu to help you. I know her character very well, just like the Bodhisattva on the altar.
Seeing all kinds of kindness, but saying nothing and moving nothing, just watching the suffering of all living beings.
In order to protect you, I can only say this in front of the queen and others, and then you have to cooperate with me in acting to fool them." Concubine Xian said.
"What do you want me to do?" Xue Hengzhao asked.
"I have some medicine here. It won't kill you if you take it. It will only make your pulse weak. So I told the queen and others that they have used poison on you. In order to avoid arousing suspicion, they administered the poison slowly.
, you will be dead in a year and a half. The Queen is suspicious and will definitely ask the imperial doctor to take your pulse. So you must take this medicine." Concubine Xian said and motioned to the maid next to her to hand over a small porcelain bottle.
Take a photo of Xue Heng.
"Xian Fei, this medicine won't really kill me, right?" Xue Hengzhao held the bottle in his hand and asked with a smile.
"You are not stupid, and I am not a fool," Concubine Xian also smiled, "I would like to use a talent like yours for my own use, because there is no harm to you. You and I are conspiring to do something big. If I treat you
If you do something evil, aren't you afraid that you will fight back?"
"What I just said was just a joke. Don't take it seriously." Xue Hengzhao gently put the porcelain bottle into his sleeve.
"Miss Xue, I also want to thank you." Concubine Xian said to Xue Hengzhao, "This plan of yours is really wonderful."
"The Queen and the Yao family have suffered a huge loss." Xue Hengzhao said, "What will happen even if they find Liang Jing? They still won't get what they want.
The servants have not yet sent their congratulations to the Concubine Xian, and your two brothers have also been reinstated. The Liu family's status in the court is now unmatched in the past, and the Sixth Prince is also more relied upon."
"Concubine Fu also has another happy event there!" Concubine Xian said, "I heard that the fifth prince's concubine is happy again. When the emperor heard about it, Long Yan was overjoyed, and he was given another great reward!"
"Yes, so I really have a hard time choosing between you two." Xue Hengzhao did not mince words.
“Ms.
Come to the capital.
Your father is very knowledgeable and highly sought after by the world. How can such a talented person not be reused?"
Concubine Xian knew that without Xue Hengzhao, Concubine Fu and the others would have no one who was good at planning, and they would definitely lose.
"Then Concubine Xian must be faster," Xue Hengzhao said, "After all, the nights are long and there are many dreams!"
Xue Hengzhao knew that although Concubine Xian was trying to recruit her, in reality she just didn't want her to be on Concubine Fu's side.
With Concubine Xian’s temperament, how could she trust herself completely?
"The Concubine Xian is here, why don't you go in and sit down?" At this time Aunt Ningcui walked in from outside.
"I was a little thirsty when I passed by here, so I came in to ask for a cup of tea. I'm going back now." Concubine Xian said with a smile, "Why isn't Auntie in the meditation hall?"
"The white jade chime used by the Concubine suddenly broke into pieces just now. I hurried back to get a new one," Ningcui said.
"Then aunt, go and get busy! I'm leaving too. I'll come back another day." Concubine Xian said and walked away.
