Article 487
In the early morning, the sun shines on the windowsill and pours down.
Qingyi opened her slightly red and swollen eyes, got up with some difficulty, and leaned on the edge of the bed, at this time, Gonggong Qin and Xiao Tong pushed the door in, knelt down and asked An Dao: "Slaves, slaves and maids see Concubine De Niangniang, Niangniang Wanfu Jin'an" Then, Xiao Tong got up and stepped forward with a basin to freshen up for Qingyi, and Gonggong Qin ordered someone to pass breakfast into the bedroom.
After Xiao Tong changed Qingyi's clothes, he helped her to the mirror, and bowed his head while combing her hair: "Miss, the slave maid heard from the imperial doctor, your body is very poor, and you must rest more, so"
Xiao Tong stopped, looked at the busy figure of Gonggong Qin, and said with a smile: "So there are some things that can be done by the slave maid, if you bump into it, the emperor will have to ask for the slave's head." ”
Qingyi looked at herself in the mirror, smiled weakly, and sighed: "Xiao Tong, I suddenly feel that the person in the mirror is getting farther and farther away from me" and then closed his eyes a little tiredly, and said in a very soft voice: "Things are people, year after year, Xiao Tong, am I old?" ”
Standing in front of the table, Gonggong Qin looked at Qingyi's back with some doubts, as if he had an indescribable feeling in his heart, but he couldn't notice what the clues were, so after taking care of the breakfast, he said to Qingyi: "Niangniang, breakfast is ready, and the slave has retired." ”
Qingyi looked at the look of Gonggong Qin in the mirror, smiled lightly, pursed his lips and said: "Gonggong Qin, from tonight onwards, you will stay in the palace to accompany the emperor, the palace will move back to the 'health palace' today, there is Xiao Tong by the side of the palace, you can ask the emperor to rest assured", and then reached out to Xiao Tong's hand, got up and walked to the table, turned his head to Xiao Tong and said: "Withdraw the meal into the 'health palace', it is equivalent to let the maid in front of the palace replace the quilts on the bed with new ones", as he spoke, Qingyi walked outside the hall.
Gonggong Qin was stunned at the door, and didn't come back to his senses until Qingyi stepped out of the palace door, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Niangniang is this", before he finished speaking, Gonggong Qin suddenly caught a glimpse of a bright yellow in front of him, he was shocked, and hurriedly closed his mouth.
"Concubine Ai is going to move back to the 'Health Palace'?" Yu Haoxuan's cold voice suddenly came, which made Qingyi and Xiao Tong stunned, and then saw Yu Haoxuan walking over, with a lazy look, a little, only to hear him sneer, and said expressionlessly: "That's fine, Qin An, tell me to go down, stay in the 'Chongyang Palace' tonight" Then, I couldn't see Qingyi, so I walked into the dormitory from her and slammed the door
Gonggong Qin was stunned, a little stunned to look at the closed door, blinked, and then looked at Qingyi in embarrassment, a little unclear, but Qingyi was calmer than he imagined, I saw her take a deep breath, and smiled at Xiao Tong: "Let's go, the palace is a little tired, go back to the 'Health Palace' and then talk"
Xiao Tong's expression was also a little sluggish, and he immediately came back to his senses when he heard Qingyi's low call, and then said yes, and then helped Qingyi to walk in the direction of the 'Health Palace', not daring to slack off at all
In the 'Palace of Eternal Life', Gonggong Qin led the two maids in front of the palace to stand aside with Dongyue, and the four of them looked at Yu Haoxuan who was sitting in front of the desk and commenting on the chapter with no expression, to be honest, Gonggong Qin has followed the emperor for more than 20 years, but he has never seen such a 'calm' emperor, although the emperor's mind is indeed difficult to guess, but in the past few months, not only is it difficult to serve a lot, but even the preferences are a little confused.
Gonggong Qin glanced at the sheets on the jade plate in the hands of the two imperial maids, and asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, just now Concubine De said that she would replace all the quilts on the bed, look"
"Change." Yu Haoxuan still didn't raise his head, only put down the brush in his hand with some irritability, and threw aside the book that had not yet been approved, without intention of raising his head, his eyes wrinkled his sword eyebrows when he caught a glimpse of Dongyue's obsessive eyes, and his deep eyes contained a slight anger.
Dongyue was startled, and hurriedly lowered her head, and Gonggong Qin was even more frightened and said: "Your Majesty, this is the maid Dongyue who was given to the emperor by Concubine De, and she is a palace maid who specializes in making tea."
Dongyue forcibly suppressed the fear in her heart, smiled stiffly and blessed Yu Haoxuan, and said: "Slave Dongyue sees the emperor, the emperor is blessed."
Then, there was no sound in the hall, everyone secretly wiped their sweat, even Father-in-law Qin didn't know how to deal with it below, a little, when everyone didn't know what to do, they heard the emperor say without waves: "Since it is a piece of Concubine De's heart, then how can I refuse, Qin An, I will canonize Dongyue as a seven-grade royal maid, and give a six-grade reward"
As soon as the words fell, Gonggong Qin and the other two palace maids immediately froze on the spot, and it was not until Dongyue's happy voice came that they came back to their senses, and their eyes looked at Dongyue, who was kneeling on the ground, and thanked the Lord Long En in a row
It was noon, the warm sun had been poisoned, Qingyi stood on the window edge in front of the hall, half-leaning and looking at the purple and red outside the window, rubbing his forehead with his hands a little weakly, and then turned around and walked to the couch on the side, leaning on the high pillow, closing his eyes and sleeping for a while.
In the past few days, she felt that her body was getting worse and worse than before, as if she would gasp quickly after a few more steps, and her whole person was much lazy, and her heart was becoming more and more chaotic and hesitant.
Xiao Tong walked into the hall with the medicinal food, saw that Qingyi's figure was not by the window, panicked, just wanted to call, his eyes turned, but he saw the crescent moon scattered on the couch, she was worried about it for a while, and hurriedly stepped forward and said lightly: "Miss, the medicine prescribed by the doctor is here" In the past few days, the doctor has told her several times, saying that Concubine De Niangniang is weak and needs to take tonic medicinal food, and she needs to eat more, but Miss wants to vomit when she sees the medicinal diet and meal, so that she doesn't know what to do
Sure enough, Qingyi smelled the smell of medicine, and immediately covered his chest and vomited dryly, which frightened Xiao Tong and began to hurry again, but as usual, Qingyi vomited for a long time but still didn't vomit anything, but his face was frighteningly pale, and the whole person was lying on the couch like collapse.
"Miss" Xiao Tong stroked Qingyi's chest, looking anxious, since moving from the 'Palace of Eternal Life' to the 'Hall of Health' this morning, Miss's expression has become even more tired, as if she would faint at any time.
Qingyi rested for a while, then opened her eyes and looked at Xiao Tong, and then reluctantly sat up, leaned on the cushion, and comforted her: "I'm fine, it's just that this body, after I sealed the meridians, I fell into the root of the disease, and added the poison of arsenic" Speaking of this, Qingyi suddenly fell silent, covered her lips with her bare hands, and coughed slightly.
Xiao Tong hurriedly helped Qingyi up, patted her on the back, and twisted her eyebrows to persuade: "Miss, you take medicine, the imperial doctor said that as long as you drink the medicine, you will get better in a while, but Miss, today's medicine, the slave will not pour it out if you say anything, if you continue like this, it is really true", as he said, Xiao Tong was about to cry in a hurry
Qingyi shook her head lightly, narrowed her eyes, held Xiao Tong's hand with her bare hands, but said with a light smile: "Xiao Tong, today, has anything happened in the palace?" ”
Xiao Tong's eyes were misty, and she couldn't bear to look at Qingyi's face that was so pale that she couldn't even find a trace of blood, her heart hurt so much that it became more and more difficult to breathe, she bowed her head and said: "This morning, Dongyue was canonized by the emperor as a seventh-rank royal maiden, and was rewarded by the sixth-grade."
Qingyi sighed slightly, and said lightly: "She finally got her wish", and then opened her eyes to look at the sunlight shining outside the window, and suddenly felt like we were in a different world, and there was still more than a month left, and she had to get everything she needed in the only time.
Coughing lightly, Qingyi turned her eyes to look at the bowl of black medicinal juice, calculated the remaining time, and gasped lightly: "Xiao Tong, bring the medicine" Perhaps, she still wants to stay for a few more days, perhaps, because of her guilt for Xiao Tong
Medicine? When Xiao Tong heard this, he was immediately overjoyed, hurriedly brought the medicine, blew it, and said, "Miss, come, the medicine is already cold" and then lightly scooped a spoonful of medicine with a spoon and handed it to Qingyi's lips, just lifting the veil on her face, but was stopped by Qingyi, Qingyi just glanced at the bowl of black medicinal juice, and then took the bowl and drank it all
After lunch, Xiao Tong told Qingyi that the emperor had gone to Dongyue's dormitory, and added a lot of items for it, far beyond the identity of the seven-grade maid, the palace maids in the harem were all discussing, this maid also had a 'month' in her name, the emperor could be so unusual, although there was not much difference between the identity of the maid and the palace maid, but still
This matter has also caused a lot of waves in the harem, after all, the emperor has not been fortunate to have any palace concubines below the second rank since he ascended the throne, and even the flower beauties who were in the limelight at the banquet that day are still guarding the 'boudoir', and now a small palace maid can become a royal maid without being drafted out of the cabinet, and can get the favor of the emperor.
For a while, there were different opinions, and those concubines in the harem who had not been pampered, or who had not even seen the emperor, began to stir, and they were discussing whether the emperor began to use red and green cards to recruit sleep, but after knowing that Dongyue was the personal girl of Concubine Xiao Tong in the mouth of the 'maid in front of the palace', they all died down and were angry.
Therefore, the turmoil of canonizing the maid this time can be said to have struck suddenly, but after a few hours, the wind and waves were calm, but in the 'Chongyang Palace', it was chaotic by a wave of joy and anger
Qinglan stood in the hall and looked at the master who no longer knew her joy and anger, and it was not persuasion, nor persuasion, so she could only look at her and paced back and forth, until Ouyang Hongyu slapped her palm on the table in annoyance, and then stepped forward and comforted: "Miss, what if Xiao Tong lifts Dongyue up the branch?" After all, she is still a sparrow hiding in the harem, and she can't become a phoenix."
Ouyang Hongyu glanced at Qinglan, rubbed her forehead very irritably, twisted her eyebrows and said, "Qinglan thinks I'm jealous?" Then he walked to the front of the hall, pinched the silk handkerchief in his hand, and said coldly: "There are so many concubines in the palace, how can I ever be jealous?" It's just that the matter of Dongyue is not so simple, I really can't think of a little palace maid, why did Xiao Tong give her to the emperor? ”
Qinglan's eyes blinked twice, pondered for a moment, and said suspiciously: "Miss means that Concubine De Niangniang already knows that Dongyue is our person, so", speaking of this, Qinglan herself was stunned, the reason why her master chose Dongyue to do it in the first place Ning Xue Palace's bottom exploration, just because the girl was simple-minded and wanted to become the emperor's woman, so the young lady planned and told her that as long as Xiao Tong's matter was reported regularly, after the matter was completed, she would be recommended to the emperor, and now Xiao Tong actually took the lead, could it be that Xiao Tong really knew that the winter moon was unusual?
"In addition to this, I can't think of why Xiao Tong would send a talented and unattractive woman to the emperor's side, and when she was so favored" Ouyang Hongyu said with some annoyance, in the past few days, she has been busy with the matter of her father urging Shangguan Wan'er to do something, and now Xiao Tong actually gave her such a trick.
Qinglan was so little by Ouyang Hongyu, her heart suddenly brightened, but she had to sincerely admire Xiao Tong's strategy, no matter what, sending a woman to the emperor would not shake her position, after all, she could carry the first heir of the Celestial Dynasty in her womb, even if she was not favored in the future, the identity of the crown princess was enough to make her worship by ten thousand people.
"But, doesn't Miss think it's still a bit risky? After all, Concubine De Niangniang is not a god, there is no way to guess the Sacred Heart, how can she know if the emperor will accept the little girl Dongyue, "After all, Dongyue has no talent, no virtue and no appearance, if the emperor really likes women, the queen will not be today's end."
Ouyang Hongyu took a deep breath, looked up at the increasingly hot sun in the sky, and said thoughtfully: "Actually, Xiao Tong doesn't need to guess the Sacred Heart at all, she just needs to put Dongyue next to the emperor, as long as Dongyue sees hope, she has already succeeded" Saying, she closed her eyes irritably, and said, "When did my father say that Shangguan Zhong will be resolved?" ”
Qinglan was stunned for a moment, as if she hadn't added her spirit from Ouyang Hongyu's words, and stammered a little: "Xiangye said that he would cooperate with hundreds of officials to play in the morning of the next day, and this time Shangguan Zhong will inevitably be exiled outside Beijing if his house is not raided."
"Very good" Ouyang Hongyu said expressionlessly, the unbearable sourness in her heart calmed down a little, she flicked her long sleeves, walked to the bench next to the table and sat down, and then picked up a cup of tea, took a sip, her complexion gradually improved, and said leisurely: "We must wait until Shangguan Zhong is delayed before we can deal with Shangguan Wan'er, otherwise it will inevitably be discussed, this matter will be handed over to you to inform the eldest brother and father, and ask them to let the matter of deposing Concubine Xian be slowed down first, and they must not act rashly. It will inevitably be counterattacked."
Qinglan nodded, and then stepped forward to reassure: "Miss, don't worry, Qinglan has her own measure in this matter, but" Qinglan suddenly laughed, and leaned into Ouyang Hongyu's ear and said: "Miss, the emperor is coming tonight, and the slave maid will help you prepare now"
When Ouyang Hongyu heard this, the whole person was stunned for a moment, her face suddenly flushed, she got up and slapped Qinglan, but Qinglan ran away with a smile
In the 'Yuehua Palace', Dong Yue stood cautiously beside Yu Haoxuan, looking at the pile of rewards and additions sent by Gonggong Qin, her heart was excited but afraid, she could only bow her head and stand next to the emperor's side, not even daring to move a step
Father-in-law Qin lit the jewels and objects that were rewarded, while glancing at the emperor's deep eyes from time to time, and suddenly felt a little creepy, after ordering the jewelry, he blessed Dongyue with a blessing, and said: "Imperial Lady Pei, these are all rewarded by the emperor, you can take a look" Father-in-law Qin handed those jewels to Dongyue, but complained in his heart, like such a woman who was once a low-level palace maid, I am afraid that she has never even seen these things.
Dong Yue panicked for a while, she had thanked her just now, but she didn't know what to do at the moment, so her eyes glanced pitifully at Yu Haoxuan, who had been sitting on the side, but she saw that Yu Haoxuan got up calmly and coldly, didn't look at Dong Yue, and then walked out of the hall
Seeing the emperor's actions, Gonggong Qin was stunned, and hurriedly put the jewelry in his hand on the desk, and then bowed to Dongyue, and said: "Imperial Girl Pei rested earlier, and the slave retired", and then shook off the dust, followed the figure of the emperor, leaving Dongyue alone to stand there stunned, looking at the emperor's distant figure with stupid eyes
