Pearl didn't hang herself to death with a belt, but she still suffered a lot.
I called my mother-in-law to save me, but my throat was so sore that I couldn't even make a sound.
At the same time, she felt lucky and scared at the same time. If the little maid was one step late, she might really have to go to the Prince of Hell to serve the late princess.
Xiao Jingtong was still young after all, so he was quite frightened by the fuss he made about Pearl.
His little face was so pale that he couldn't say a word for a long time, and he couldn't even move his eyes.
One of the little maids saw her looking very frightened, so she hurried to Zhilanju to report a message.
When Song Qinghuan strode from Yilanju to Hanliyuan, Xiao Jingtong hadn't even called him over.
Sitting on the rose chair, his face was stiff, his eyes were dull, he was holding a tea bowl filled with honey in his hand, and he was motionless, with cold sweat breaking out all over his body.
When Song Qinghuan came, he had already asked the little maid to explain everything. Seeing her like this, he was startled. He quickly took the tea bowl from her hand, hugged her, and said softly: "It's okay, it's okay."
, don’t be afraid."
She coaxed her for a long time before Xiao Jingtong came back to his senses. He raised his head and saw Song Qinghuan. He didn't dare to blink. He just cried and said: "She, she, is she dead?"
The little maid who lived in the same room as Pearl shouted loudly, and the whole Hanliyuan knew about it. Although Xiao Jingtong lagged behind and went into the house, she watched helplessly as Pearl was carried down by her mother-in-law.
This scene also lingers in my mind.
After all, he is a half-grown child, how can he not be afraid?
Song Qinghuan said hurriedly: "No, I'm still alive." Then he said: "I've sent someone to ask for a doctor. It'll be fine. Don't be afraid."
Warm palms caressed her back, gently and softly.
Xiao Jingtong was also rare and did not reject him. He just nestled in Song Qinghuan's arms, but his eyes were still lifeless.
Chun Niang hurried over and saw this scene.
Song Qinghuan hugged Xiao Jingtong with a worried expression, while Xiao Jingtong also leaned against her with a touch of nostalgia.
For a moment, it gave people the illusion that they were mother and daughter.
Chun Niang took one look at it, her eyes darkened, and she hurriedly withdrew and went to Pearl's house.
The doctor hadn't come yet, and Pearl was lying on the bed with a purple face, coughing from time to time.
There was an elderly woman guarding the house, and several maids who lived in the same room were all hiding in the corridor, and no one dared to enter the house.
Agate held her purse in her hand and huddled aside, not daring to move.
The little maid who first discovered that Pearl had committed suicide cried so hard that her face turned pale and she was out of breath.
Seeing Chun Niang coming, several little maids hurriedly gathered around her, chatting in a flurry of words, but they hid the incident that was adding insult to injury.
Finally, someone said: "The princess said that because it was the death anniversary of the late princess, she asked Sister Pearl to go to Hongfa Temple. She also said that she would definitely take her back after the death anniversary."
"I didn't know Sister Pearl was so hard to think about."
Chun Niang knew that Pearl and Agate belonged to Empress Dowager Jiang, so she didn't say anything when she heard this. She only said: "This girl is also stupid. Since she doesn't want to go to Hongfa Temple, even if she can't ask for grace from her master, she doesn't have to commit suicide."
"
Xunmei was leading the doctor in when she accidentally heard such a sentence. Her face turned cold and she said, "According to Sister Chunniang, whatever the master has arranged, as long as you don't want to do it, right?"
Everyone can learn pearls?"
Chun Niang didn't know that Xunmei happened to hear her. She raised her eyes and glanced at her. She immediately lowered her eyes and said in panic: "I, I didn't mean that, I..."
I had to say "I" several times, but found that I couldn't explain it clearly, so I said: "It's because I don't have a good mouth and talk nonsense. I, I don't dare to do it again."
Chun Niang is an old man in Prince Rui's palace. She is neither a slave nor a woman in Xiao Ci's backyard. But when you walk in the palace and see her as a slave, you always have to show some kindness.
Xunmei glanced at her and didn't say anything wrong with her. She just said: "Sister Chunniang, don't take it to heart. Xunmei was just in a hurry. She spoke quickly because she was afraid that someone would misunderstand her, so she spoke with a bad attitude.
I hope my sister won't care about it."
She invited the doctor into the house, and then stood in the corridor again, assuming the air of a maid next to the princess, holding her head high and chest out, and said straight away: "We are all slaves, and we can do whatever the master asks us to do."
You don't have to pick and choose."
"Sister Pearl has been serving the princess for many years. The death anniversary of the late princess is approaching. The princess is pregnant with her biological mother and is reluctant to fight against the prince and princess. So she asked Sister Pearl to go to Hongfa Temple to give the late princess a morning and evening reception instead of the princess.
Pillow of incense."
"This is a decent thing. If you are not trusted by someone around you, you will definitely not get it. It is also what you should do as a slave. But Pearl behaves like this. It is obvious that he will not treat the former princess, the princess, or the prince.
They all take it seriously."
"She is so reckless and even threatens to kill her. She is not worthy of serving the princess."
Xunmei's eyes glanced around the little maids, and then she said: "The master of our palace is also kind-hearted. If it were another palace, such slaves would either be killed or sold out."
Her voice was not soft, and her words had a bit of a sonorous quality. Anyone standing on the porch or hiding in the room could hear her clearly.
For a while, no one answered.
Xunmei put on all the energy she should have, and with a twist of her head, she went back into the room to see how sober Pearl was.
The agate hiding in the corner had her underwear soaked through. Although she was fine now, she vaguely knew that Empress Dowager Jiang was no longer of much use to Princess Song.
With Pearl acting like this, even if she doesn't die, things won't be any better in the future. Then it will be her turn.
Waves of chills surged up from the soles of their feet, and Onyx's hands hidden in his sleeves were shaking. Prince Rui's Mansion was about to take care of them.
The doctor was taking Pearl's pulse at this end, while Xiao Jingtong was being treated at the other end by the imperial physician Xiao Ci personally invited.
Xiao Jingtong was frightened, and the matter was not serious. He just drank some soothing tea, and maybe he would be noisy for a few days, and then he would be fine.
After the medicine was prescribed, Doctor Wu saw that Xiao Jingtong was very frightened, so he injected the needle again and told her to take a rest.
Xiao Ci sent the imperial doctor out with a livid face, and the doctor also reported back and forth.
Although the pearl is hung up by a belt, it can't die either way.
Xiao Ci sat on the chair, his whole body was filled with cold air, he squinted his eyes and sneered, then he had someone hold up the pearl and went straight to the palace.
Song Qinghuan even stopped her: "If you make trouble like this, doesn't the Queen Mother hate you?"
Xiao Ci said, "As a father, my daughter asked this slave girl to make a fool of myself. Do you think I should be able to sleep peacefully?"
Song Qinghuan only stopped him for a moment, and then watched Xiao Ci enter the palace to make a fuss.
