Concubine Yu didn't wait for her to finish speaking, so she covered her mouth with her handkerchief and sneered, "Mao concubine is a cautious person after all. It's such a pity that concubine Chen cast aside such a talented person!"
Mao Bi narrowed her eyes, pursed her lips and said quietly: "Every word of what I said is true, and there is absolutely no falsehood. If the empress does not believe it, there is nothing I can do."
Concubine Yu covered her chest and laughed for a long time, then she covered her mouth and said: "Okay, okay, there is no need to swear. I am just having fun with you and telling you a joke. How come Mao Bi takes it so seriously?"
She lifted up her jeweled armor and leisurely raised the curtain of the sedan. She glanced out and saw a vast expanse of white mist between the sky and the earth. The servants beside the sedan were all wearing raincloths and struggling to walk. No one could hear any movement.
Then he turned his face, suppressed some of his smile, and said to Maobin: "I just said a few words, just to test you - I just want to see whether Maobin is telling the truth or lying to me.
."
Mao Bi looked up at her, and saw Concubine Yu leisurely looking at the koudan on her fingertips, blowing a breath slowly, and then said: "There is no need to think about such a stupid idea as loosening the mortise and tenon joints. Of course Concubine Qi can do it herself."
Only talents can do this!"
Concubine Mao said quietly: "Concubine Yu is very wise."
Concubine Yu chuckled and said with a smug look: "You don't have to rush to flatter me and want to find a new wife? I am not afraid to make my words clear and tell you clearly: I need to know that you are now my wife.
Lu Bu on the stage there, a slave with three surnames, has changed his mind many times. Who in this harem dares to use you?"
Mao Bi lowered her head, with a trace of disdain in her eyes. When she raised her head to face Concubine Yu, her eyes were filled with fear, and she said sarcastically: "I am old and unloved, but I just want a place to live. I have no choice.
Luck is so changeable, it’s really helpless!”
…
Natural pictures.
The servants in the courtyard knelt on the ground. When the emperor entered the inner courtyard, everyone straightened up.
Yinzhen and Ji Ling walked into the inner room. Another wet nurse, Aunt Chen, and Qixi were watching beside the princess's bed. Qilin was also guarding the bedside, with his ears and tail drooped. When they saw the emperor coming in, they all knelt down quickly.
He kowtowed and said, "I send my regards to the Emperor. May the Emperor be blessed with good fortune and good fortune!"
Yinzhen walked to the bedside and looked at the third princess's little body buried in the thick quilt, with an expression of peaceful sleep on her face, so she felt relieved, and the expression on her face gradually relaxed, and she looked again
Qixi asked: "Did the third princess wake up in the middle of the journey?"
Qixi said quickly: "The third princess has been sleeping soundly since taking the medicine."
Yinzhen knew that the prescription contained medicine to calm the mind and help sleep, so he nodded, raised his hands and bent down, and personally tucked the quilt for the third princess. He saw Ji Ling kneeling beside the crib, staring at it without blinking.
The third princess couldn't bear it anymore, so she stepped forward and held her shoulders with a little force, saying: "Lingling, the ground is cold, you get up first, don't make yourself suffer like this."
He held Ji Ling's hand and walked out. When they got to the main hall, Yinzhen pressed her shoulders and asked her to sit on the chair under the window. Then he said: "Don't worry, the imperial doctor has looked at it carefully.
I won’t leave tonight, I will stay here until Xi’er wakes up, and then I will return to Jiuzhou Qingyan.”
Ji Ling raised her face, responded with a dull look, and nodded. Looking at her appearance, Yinzhen knew that she was scared, so he couldn't help but hold her in his arms, caressing her back and saying coldly.
He said: "Everything happens for a reason - Concubine Qi hates you, it's not just a matter of a day or two. Lingling, you should not have stopped Imperial Doctor Di. You should have asked him to tell me about this matter."
Ji Ling lay in Yinzhen's arms, stretched out her arms to hug his waist, and whispered: "It's just meals, no medicine. If you really think about it, I didn't get a permit. What's more, I was just a kid at that time.
Cheng Chong is just a little nobleman. He is being watched overtly and covertly. Even if he reports to the emperor, it will only be a minor disturbance. In the end, I am afraid that he will be even more hated by others."
She paused, her tone turned cold, and said: "If Concubine Qi hates me, I can still pretend to be confused and just try to make the big thing smaller and make things calmer. Thinking about it, she will always feel bored if she misses many times; but
I really didn’t expect that she would have such courage and be able to do something to Xi’er!”
Yinzhen was silent for a while, then held her hand and whispered: "Lingling, when you just accepted your favor last year, you didn't dare to be sure that I would protect you, right?"
Ji Ling raised his eyes and looked at Yinzhen pitifully.
Yinzhen looked deeply and hugged Ji Ling into his arms. He had mixed feelings in his heart for a while, and finally whispered: "Lingling, you have been wronged."
Ji Ling didn't say anything, but just held the hem of Yinzhen's clothes tightly. Yinzhen felt her trembling slightly in his arms, so he lowered his head in comfort and tightened his arms around her.
The heavy rain lasted for half a day and slowly stopped in the evening.
In the back lake, the water has all risen. In the sky above and below, many fish are still spinning and swimming here, waiting for the fence to drop a lot of fish food just like a while ago.
Come.
It’s just that after waiting for a long time, the fish feeder didn’t come.
After the rain, a rainbow appeared in the sky, and behind the dark clouds, a golden sunset appeared, adding layers of gold to the dark clouds in the sky.
The carriage of the Ministry of Internal Affairs had arrived outside the Xianliang Gate of the Old Summer Palace, and the queen sent the eunuchs Mi Yugui and Rong around her to agree to see Li off.
The maid next to Li held the parcel and helped her walk out of the main hall, which was illuminated by the sky. When Li passed through the side hall, she turned around and saw that the door to Maobin's residence was tightly closed.
There was no one at the door, as if he could not avoid it.
Mrs. Li stopped, glanced up and down at the sky with nostalgia, and then listened to Rong and said nondescriptly: "Always... Madam, it's getting late. Your Majesty wants you to move out of the Old Summer Palace and return to the palace immediately. You still have to
You have to hold on tighter."
Mi Yugui was beside him and said with a smile: "After the rain, the road is muddy and difficult to travel. There is no shortage of time on the road. After such a toss, it will be too late to return to the palace. You'd better get on the road early."
Mrs. Li heard Rong agree to call her "Empress of Changzai". When the four words fell in her ears, she felt sad and ridiculous at the same time. She looked back at Maobin's residence angrily and walked out.
…
The night gradually deepened, and the third princess finally woke up.
Ji Ling was lying on her daughter's bedside. She had been touching her forehead and tucking her quilt from time to time. When she saw that the third princess was awake, she immediately leaned over and said happily: "Xi'er!"
Qixi, Bixue, Evian and Grandma Chen all cheered up and gathered around.
Qilin's puppy head tried its best to squeeze in through the gap between the people, stretched its neck, opened its two puppy eyes, and looked at its little master worriedly.
Yinzhen was already sitting on the chair under the window, tired and dozing off. When he heard the noise, he immediately stood up and walked over. Upon seeing this, he told Qixi: "Go and call the imperial doctor!"
