After the Chinese New Year, Wei Luo will be seven years old.
Going to the study room started from the sixteenth day of the first month. Wei Luo accompanied Zhao Liuli to study every day, and occasionally went to Zhaoyang Hall to meet Empress Chen. Empress Chen seemed to like her very much. Under her supervision, Zhao Liuli ate and drank medicine on time every day, and her health was much better than last year. Empress Chen praised her as a little lucky star, so she was even more reluctant to let her go.
Wei Luo didn't know what happened to Zhao Liuli in her previous life. If her health could continue to improve, it would be great. If she still couldn't escape the fate of illness and death as in her previous life, then no matter how hard she tried, it would be futile.
It's just that people get along with each other for a long time, after all, they have feelings. Zhao Liuli is pure-hearted, and if she likes someone, she will treat her wholeheartedly. She devoted her heart and soul to Wei Luo, even though Wei Luo was a little dark girl, she was moved by her. If possible, she will try her best to help her live a few more years, so as not to let her die early.
This day Wei Luo came to the upper study room, and at a glance, there were three empty seats in the room.
Li Song and Zhao Zhang didn't come to the class for a long time, Chang Taifu didn't pay any attention to it, everyone thought they didn't exist. Now there is one less person, and that is Zhao Liuli.
Wei Luo was very puzzled, yesterday they were still making snowballs, why did they disappear today
She asked Taifu what was going on, but Taifu couldn't answer, presumably he hadn't gotten any news yet.
Wei Luo waited until Maozheng was over, instead of going back to the British government, he went directly to the Chenhua Hall of Qingxi Palace. Walking to the door of the hall, a nanny wearing a sand blue bija came out, she went up and asked, "Mommy, why didn't Princess Tianji go to the study today?"
Wei Luo served as Zhao Liuli's companion for more than half a year, and everyone in the Chenhua Palace knew her.
The nanny came out to pour out the ashes, and when she heard the words she was mournful, and she said with tears in her eyes, "Your Highness had an accident yesterday... She is currently in Zhaoyang Hall, and the empress is guarding her, so I don't know what's going on."
Wei Luo was shocked when she heard this, didn't you feel good yesterday? How can something happen
She asked Mammy what was going on, but Mammy faltered and said nothing. The rules in the palace do not allow people to gossip or gossip, but seeing that she is a child, the nanny can't help but reveal something to her. It seems to be related to the Seventh Princess Zhao Linlang. Yesterday Zhao Linlang and Li Xiang were playing in the back garden, Zhao Liuli passed by there, not knowing what happened to the three of them, Zhao Liuli stumbled and fell into a nearby pond. There was a thin layer of ice floating on the surface of the water, which was bitingly cold. Zhao Liuli soaked in the water for a while, and when she was rescued by the mother, she was already shivering from the cold.
That night, she developed a high fever and lost her mind. The body that had been recovered with great difficulty a while ago became even more ill all of a sudden.
When Empress Chen learned that this matter was related to Zhao Linlang and Li Xiang, she was very angry and threatened to punish them severely. However, the reason for this matter has not yet been ascertained, and the other party has Concubine Ning pleading for mercy, and was suppressed for the time being, it is more important to rescue Zhao Liuli first.
Zhao Liuli was inherently weak, and her illnesses were more serious than ordinary people's. Minor ailments and pains on other people's bodies would be fatal to her. Right now, she was lying unconscious on the bed, with a high fever that would not subside, which made everyone anxious. Empress Chen even stayed by her bedside all night, feeling extremely distressed.
Hearing this, Wei Luo wanted to go over and take a look at her situation. However, after thinking about it, there must be many imperial physicians around at this time, and going by myself can't help much, it's just adding to the chaos. It's better to go back first and visit her after she recovers.
Sitting on the carriage home, Wei Luo kept thinking, why did Zhao Liuli die in her previous life? When did you die
She was only sixteen years old when she died, and that burst of heavy snow should have been a few days ago. If she was with her often and paid attention to her condition at that time, would it be possible to prolong her life
In the past few days, Princess Tianji was seriously ill, and Wei Luo didn't go to the study. About half a month later, news finally came from the palace that Zhao Liuli could get out of bed. Zhao Liuli said that she missed her and invited her into the palace.
When Wei Luo came to the entrance of Chenhua Hall, the earth dragon in the hall was burning hot, and as soon as he entered, the cold air from his whole body was blown away. She took off the cashmere black satin embroidered plum pattern cloak and walked inside, "Liuli?"
Zhao Liuli's clear voice came from inside the Bisha cabinet: "Ah Luo, I'm here."
Wei Luo went over and saw that she was sitting behind a square table with enamel-coated dough and heart, burying her head in fiddling with a square Kong Ming lock in her hand. She dismantled the Kong Ming locks one by one and scattered them on the table, and she was trying very hard to put them back together. In addition to the six Kongming locks, there are plum blossom locks, Luban balls, and twenty-four locks on the square table... These are all folk children's toys, how can she play with these
Wei Luo sat across from her, studying her expression. Her face was a little thin, and after a period of recuperation, although her complexion had improved, she was still sick. "Is your body well? Why are you suddenly sick?"
Zhao Liuli paused, put down Kong Mingsuo silently, and looked up at her pitifully: "I'm much better now, and I didn't mean to be sick. The Empress Dowager doesn't allow me to go out these days. I can't tell you. Don't be angry."
Wei Luo pursed her lips, "I'm not angry." After thinking about it, she couldn't help but ask, "Mother said you fell into the water, why are you so careless?"
It was a bit embarrassing to say this, Zhao Liuli didn't intend to tell her at first, but now seeing that she was a little unhappy, she pursed her mouth and told her the truth.
It turned out that it was Zhao Linlang's birthday that day. In order to celebrate her, Li Xiang and a few little princes urged the palace people to buy firecrackers and fireworks outside the palace and set them off secretly in the back garden. Zhao Liuli happened to pass by, and among them, the sixth prince was bumped into by Zhao Linlang, and the firecracker in his hand hit Zhao Liuli's feet. Zhao Liuli was startled, and backed away again and again, not paying attention to what was behind her, and fell into the pond as soon as she tilted her body!
Afterwards, several people were fined. Among them, the sixth prince was punished the most. It is said that he had to face the wall and think for three months. He was not even allowed to go to the study room. He was also severely beaten by his biological mother Concubine Liang.
After hearing this, Wei Luo remained silent for a long time. It was really intriguing whether Zhao Linlang bumped into the sixth prince on purpose or not.
If it is intentional, such thoughts at such a young age cannot be underestimated.
Zhao Liuli didn't know what she was thinking, she lowered her eyes and said regretfully: "My mother will not allow me to go to study in the study anymore, and wants me to stay in Chenhua Palace. Ah Luo, you can no longer be my study companion."
Wei Luo could understand Empress Chen's thoughts. Her daughter had accidents one after another, and she was about to turn ten years old. She didn't know if this catastrophe would pass. Of course, she had to be carefully protected. She rested her cheeks, "If I don't accompany you, will you drink the medicine honestly?"
Zhao Liuli frowned and hesitated, "Yes!"
The Empress Dowager has been exhausted physically and mentally for her these days, and she has seen it all. In order not to worry the queen mother, she will definitely drink the medicine well.
After she finished speaking, she looked at Wei Luo again, with hope in her eyes: "Ah Luo, if you are not my companion, will you come to see me in the palace?"
Wei Luo nodded without hesitation, "Of course."
She was finally relieved, smiling contentedly. She only had one friend, Wei Luo, and ever since Empress Chen said she wouldn't let her go to the study, she had been worried, would Ah Luo stop playing with her? Thinking about it, I have no clue, and the more I think about it, the more anxious I become. Now that Ah Luo personally said that she would come to see her, she was finally happy, and her smiles also increased significantly.
After finishing talking about important matters, Wei Luo pointed to the piles of Kong Ming locks on the table, and finally had the opportunity to ask, "Where did you get these things? Why haven't I seen you play with them before?"
Speaking of this, Zhao Liuli introduced to her like a treasure: "Yang Zhen gave it to me. My mother didn't allow me to go out, so he bought these for me to pass the time. It's fun, and I can fight for a long time."
Wei Luo tilted her head, "Who is Yang Zhen?"
He had never heard of this name before, Ah Luo searched in his mind, but he didn't remember it at all.
Zhao Liuli secretly smiled, looking both happy and proud, "Yang Zhen is my bodyguard given to me by my brother. He knows everything and has high martial arts skills." In the end, he concluded, "He is very powerful."
After finishing speaking, he looked out of the sill window and hurriedly pulled Wei Luo over, "Look, he is Yang Zhen."
Wei Luo leaned over, and through the sill window, he saw a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy leaning against the red-painted porch pillar. He was wearing a green silk round collar jacket, tall and tall, with stern eyebrows, thin lips slightly pursed, and he looked like an indifferent and taciturn person. He lowered his head and was carving a rectangular piece of wood. When he heard the movement by the window, he glanced over coldly, and his eyes fell on Zhao Liuli.
Zhao Liuli smiled brightly at him, "Brother Yang Zhen, don't forget that I want a little rabbit!"
Yang Zhen didn't answer, just nodded slightly, lowered his head and continued to carve wood carvings.
Originally, guards were not allowed to enter and leave the harem, but Zhao Liuli's situation is quite special, she must have someone to protect her, otherwise Empress Chen and Emperor Chongzhen would not be at ease. Since these two people agree, everything is not a problem, and Yang Zhen will stay by Zhao Liuli's side and be her personal bodyguard from now on.
Since he is strong in martial arts, with his protection, there shouldn't be any problems with Liuli.
Wei Luo looked away, and couldn't help but think, it's just that she's a little cold and doesn't talk too much. He is the only one beside Liuli, so I don't know if it will be deserted.
Back at the British residence, Wei Luo got out of the carriage on boxwood feet, and the gold thread was waiting in front of the door.
Jin Lu hurried forward and stuffed the small hand stove she had prepared into her hand, "It's been cold in spring recently, and the weather is getting colder and colder. Miss will carry the hand stove with her when she goes to the palace in the future, so as not to freeze."
After hearing this, Wei Luo said crisply, "Sister Jinlu, I don't need to be accompanied by Princess Tianji anymore, and I don't need to go to the study either."
Jin Lu was taken aback for a moment, and asked why in confusion.
She then talked about Liuli's matter from the beginning to the end, she didn't mention the matter of falling into the water, she only said that Liuli's health was not good, Empress Chen was worried, and she was not allowed to go to the study from now on. Hearing this, Jin Lu said with emotion, "Princess Tianji's body...is really a pity."
Yes, I have an enviable background, but I don't have a good body to enjoy.
Wei Luo didn't say anything, and followed her into the mansion.
About to walk in the door, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a girl in a pink-blue jacket and a moon-white skirt coming out of the corner. Wei Luo felt that she looked familiar, so she couldn't help but stop and look. I couldn't help being stunned by this glance, this girl has delicate features and yellow complexion, who else could it be if it wasn't Adai
She suddenly held Jin Lu's hand, "Sister Jin Lu, who is she?"
Jin Lu looked around and saw that the girl was holding silk flowers on her arm, she immediately understood what was going on, and said disapprovingly, "Probably they sell silk flowers at the corner gate. Some of them are exquisitely crafted, but some are not eye-catching, so she must have been rejected by the people in the house."
In her previous life, Adai obviously lived at the end of the village, stayed at home, and hunted for a living. Why did she sell silk flowers in this life? Only Lin Huilian sells silk flowers in Longshou Village!
Afraid of missing out again, Wei Luo said to Jin Lu: "Sister Jin Lu, stop her quickly." After saying that, afraid that Jin Lu would get suspicious, he made up a casual way: "Liu Li said today that she wanted to wear silk flowers, let me see if there are any good-looking ones. "
Hearing the words, Jin Lu did not suspect him, let go of Wei Luo's hand, stepped forward, and called to A Dai.
