Wu Meiren looked at the sleeping Mu Ci and murmured to herself: "How could this happen?"
Although the Queen Mother rarely interacted with her on weekdays, she knew that the Queen Mother had always taken good care of her. She had no friends in the harem, and of course she did not dare to expect to make friends with the Queen Mother.
But the Queen Mother was sincere in her kindness to her. In this intrigue and deceitful harem, it was rare to find someone who treated her sincerely, but this person was poisoned and couldn't wake up.
"Your Majesty must get better and punish the murderers who framed your Majesty. I believe your Majesty will not be defeated like this!" Wu Meiren whispered to Mu Ci.
If the harem really wants to find someone she admires, this person must be the Queen Mother.
Except for the Queen Mother, no one has convinced her.
After that, Wu Meiren sat in front of the couch again and read medical books to Mu Ci. Because she knew that Mu Ci had nothing to do on weekdays and just read medical books to pass the time.
The days in the harem are lonely, with so many women waiting for the emperor's favor. During the waiting time, if you can find one or two things you like to do, that would be a blessing.
After seeing Wu Meiren off, Yingchun couldn't help but sigh: "In the entire harem, Wu Meiren is probably the only one who is sincere to our mother-in-law."
The other concubines were thinking of ways to harm the empress.
If the empress wasn't smart enough, how could she have survived in the intrigues of the harem?
"Wu Meiren is indeed good, and she is indeed the one that the queen has chosen." A smile appeared on Sizhu's lips: "When the queen falls, you can tell whether the person who came to visit you is a human being or a ghost."
Shen Manyun and An Rong, who came yesterday, appeared to be very worried about the safety of their empress, but the gloating in Shen Manyun's eyes could not be hidden.
Are those two people the "ghosts" the empress called them?
"That Shen Zhaoyi is not a good person. On the surface, he says he cares about the empress, but he is actually in a good mood. But, this kind of people are usually not scheming enough. They are just afraid that they will feel happy when they see the empress fall.
Those who don't show off their appearance are the most terrifying." Yingchun frowned lightly.
Sizhu heard this and touched her head: "You have grown up."
Yingchun clapped her hand away: "Follow me, I have to learn a little bit. If I don't grow up, it will prove that I am too stupid."
Sizhu laughed and shook his head, then went to the couch to wait on her.
The empress has specifically told her before that she should pay more attention to those concubines who are more complacent and come to visit later. These people are usually the most patient and scheming.
Wu Meiren didn't come to visit until a day later because she didn't want people to see that she was too close to the empress, so Wu Meiren didn't need to be on guard.
As for the rest, she just waited and watched the show.
In the afternoon of the third day, another person came to Yong'an Palace to visit Mu Ci. It was He Zhaoyuan.
It happened that Dugu Liancheng was in the inner room, and He Zhaoyuan was a little surprised to see Dugu Liancheng was there.
After seeing the ceremony, Dugu Liancheng gave up his position, left the inner room, and went to the Nuan Pavilion not far away to review the memorial.
He hasn't had much rest in the past three days. Maybe because of this, he is not in good spirits and has a headache again.
Just last night, he suddenly remembered the rouge button he gave to Mu Ci. He heard that the rouge button was a good thing, it had the effect of warding off evil spirits, and maybe it had the effect of detoxifying.
When he discovered that there was no rouge button on Mu Ci's neck, he was naturally angry. He searched up and down the Yong'an Palace but could not find the rouge button.
Because of this, he almost stayed up all night last night.
When Biyu came in to serve, she saw the emperor's brows furrowed and he looked uncomfortable.
"Has the Emperor's headache returned?" Biyu put down the teapot and wanted to step forward to help the Emperor with the massage, but because the Emperor didn't like the approach of the palace maids, she could only stop moving forward.
She thought for a while and called Li Yu over.
Because of the emperor's headache, Li Yu went to Mrs. Zhang to get a set of massage techniques, which now come in handy.
When the emperor looked slightly worried, Li Yu stopped and said, "If the empress is awake and gives the emperor a few massages, the emperor will be completely fine."
This time, it was precisely because of Mu Ci's unconsciousness that the emperor was unable to think about food or drink and could not sleep at night.
He also didn't expect that Mu Ci's influence would be so great, and he didn't know whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.
"Have Qi Yu thought of a solution? Why is there no news yet?" Dugu Liancheng felt better and asked.
Li Yu hurriedly replied: "I have gone to see Dr. Qi before. Dr. Qi said that he was thinking of a solution. He also said that the poison the empress was exposed to was extraordinary. If it was not done properly, it might kill the empress, so we should be more cautious.
, don’t dare to take action without full confidence.”
"He is quite stable and can keep his composure." Dugu Liancheng's expression showed no emotion or anger.
Li Yu observed carefully for a while and felt that the emperor was angry. He probably couldn't find anything wrong with Qi Yu's words and was not satisfied with the speed of Qi Yu's work, so he could only sulk.
"After all, it's about the Queen Mother's phoenix body. It's for the Queen Mother's good only to treat it when you're sure." Li Yu replied following the words.
Dugu Liancheng said nothing more.
Because he had to deal with government affairs, he could not watch Mu Ci all the time, and could only accompany Mu Ci to relieve boredom in his free time.
Normally he would never do such a thing, but because he was afraid that Mu Ci would be too bored when he was in a coma, he tried to talk as much as possible.
I just don't know if Mu Ci can hear what he said.
By the time Dugu Liancheng finished reviewing the memorial, it was almost evening.
Before eating, he went to sit in front of Mu Ci's couch.
Mu Ci'an's sleeping appearance caught his eye, and he suddenly thought of the first time he saw her.
"Do you know when I first saw you?" Dugu Liancheng murmured to himself.
Mu Ci was in a coma, so of course it was impossible to answer his question. He asked and answered to himself: "When I first saw you, you were just a clown. Two of your front teeth were missing, and you kept smiling at me. Then
Sometimes I was thinking, how could there be such an ugly girl like you in this world."
Probably because the first impression was not good, and he liked to watch things, so when Mu Ci chased him later, he really couldn't like her.
Mu Ci didn't want to hear it. Dugu Liancheng hadn't talked so much before, but this time he was just chatty.
How could she remember so much about her childhood? Of course, she didn't remember that when she first met Dugu Liancheng, she was just about the age when she had lost her teeth.
But hearing what he meant, although his first impression of her was not good, it was a very deep impression because he had remembered her for so many years.
Just as she was thinking wildly, she heard Dugu Liancheng say: "Later on, you came to block me every time you entered the palace. You also knew my whereabouts well, and even beat up a certain daughter because of some unfounded rumors.
I couldn't get off the bed. At that time, I was thinking, whoever wants to marry you will be unlucky for eight lifetimes?"
