There was a moment of silence in the tent, before I heard Xi'an whisper: "I don't want it, but I can't help it, you see..." She said, opening the curtain in front of her eyes. Xiao Shunzi looked in through the gap in the drapery, her complexion changed drastically, she looked at Jubilee in shock, and whispered, "Rou'er, you, your hair..."
The Jubilee put down the tent and sobbed lowly: "I don't know why it became like this. According to the reported time of pregnancy, this child should have been born long ago. But there are too many methods to induce labor. This child just doesn't. If I am willing to come out, I am afraid that it will be delayed for a long time and will cause people to doubt. By then, both of us will be dead, so we will use the pill for inducing labor given by the imperial doctor. The child is born, but we have become like this."
Xiao Shunzi felt the pain in her heart, she forced herself to endure her heartache, and comforted the Xibian: "Don't worry, maybe you are too anxious these days. Adjust the tone properly after giving birth, and your hair will grow longer. from."
Jubilee didn't speak, and threw himself on the pillow and started crying. After crying for a long time, he stopped crying slowly, thinking for a moment, and said: "This matter cannot be known to the imperial doctor in the palace, otherwise the news will be leaked. Once the emperor knows that I have this disease, I am afraid that I will never come again. Chu Xiu Palace. Xiao Shunzi, you have to help me get a doctor in from outside the palace!"
Xiao Shunzi naturally understands the worries of Jubilee. She had a baby but lost her hair. This is a joke that will inevitably become the concubine of the sixth house if it is spread, not to mention the arrogant heart of Jubilee in the past. , Has offended others, if someone else takes the opportunity to make trouble, once they find out about their "borrowing to have children", not to mention themselves and Jubilee, even the entire Chuxiu Palace people will not survive.
Xiao Shunzi thought for a while and nodded: "Don't worry, I will help you if I fight for my life."
He instructed Jubilee to live well first, but he thought about leaving the palace, and even visited several famous doctors in Beijing. He had never seen such a disease as Jubilee. In the end, he couldn't, so he had to secretly bring a shaman. Pretending to be an imperial doctor, came into the palace.
I never thought that it was not far after entering the palace gate, but I ran into Li Dequan in the hallway.
Xiao Shunzi hurriedly bowed to Li Dequan and said, "Hello godfather."
Li Dequan glanced at the fake imperial doctor behind him, and asked Xiao Shunzi casually: "I have rarely seen you recently, and I'm still busy with my wife?"
Xiao Shunzi nodded hurriedly. Seeing Li Dequan cast his gaze on the fake imperial doctor again, he lifted his whole heart, and he heard Li Dequan ask again: "The imperial doctor behind him is a newcomer. ?"
"This..." Xiao Shunzi was flustered for a while, not knowing how to answer.
Li Dequan smiled, looked at the shaman up and down, and said unhurriedly: "There are rules for being an imperial doctor, and the manners and demeanor will not be mentioned. He must have the smell of medicine..." He said, leaning closer. The fake imperial doctor smelled it, "If there is no smell of medicine, but there is a smell of incense, it is easy to make people misunderstand the practice of witchcraft. If there are these messy things in the palace, they must be decapitated."
Xiao Shunzi was so scared that he knelt on the ground with a thud, and repeatedly said, "God father, my son knows that it is a great crime to privately recruit outsiders into the palace, but the sickness of Niang Niang is not cured by doctors, my son... my son is really good. There is no way..."
Li Dequan sighed, stretched out his hand to help him up, and said, "Alright, get up, did you call me a godfather for nothing? I still have to help you hide it."
Xiao Shunzi was already startled to sweat, and thanked him hurriedly: "Thank you godfather."
Li Dequan said again: "Okay, so be it, remember to be careful in everything, don't pierce the skylight, otherwise no one can save you. Understand?"
After speaking, he turned and left.
Xiao Shunzi wiped the sweat from his forehead and brought the fake imperial physician to the Chuxiu Palace. After entering the hall, he sent everyone down, and this made the shaman cut the pulse of the Xibi.
After a while, the shaman sighed for a long time, and said, "This disease is caused by medicine. I'm afraid it will be hard to recover."
The Xibi was startled, and couldn't help crying again, crying, "What should I do? How will I see people in the future?"
The shaman packed up the medicine box and got up to leave. Xiao Shunzi hurriedly stopped in front of him again, begging: "Master, you are the last hope of the empress, please save her. I will pay you all the money. Raise it for you."
The shaman said: "It's not money that can solve it, but the old man's ability is limited. I'm sorry, the old man will leave first."
After speaking, he hugged the medicine box and went out. Xiao Shunzi didn't dare to let him go out. He didn't care about Xibing for a while, so he hurriedly chased after him, sent the shaman away first, and then came back to see Xibing. , I saw Xibi sitting in the tent alone, without speaking or responding.
Xiao Shunzi looked worried, and whispered, "Niang Niang."
The Jubilee did not answer, and after a while he muttered to himself: "God, why are you torturing me like this? If you want to live like this, it's better to die."
Xiao Shunzi jumped down and ignored the taboos. He stretched out his hand and opened the bed sheet to look at Jubilee. It didn't matter if he looked at it, he was immediately shocked and sweated. Jubilee touched a pair of scissors in his hand. Inside, it was in front of him.
"Rou'er!" Xiao Shunzi whispered, and rushed forward to grab the scissors in her hand. The scissors were very sharp and pierced into his palm at once. The blood dripped down, but he didn't know it. Only persuaded her to say: "Don't do this, listen to me. I must have a way to make you see the sun again, there must be."
There was no longer the pride and publicity of the old man in the eyes of Jubilee, only the eyes of despair were left, and he said blankly: "I don't believe it, I have no hope anymore."
He gritted his teeth and stared at Xibi and said word by word: "Just give me a chance? If I can't do it, it's never too late for you to die."
Xibi finally let go, crying and threw himself into his arms, crying: "You must save me, you must, or I won't be able to live!"
Xiao Shunzi stiffened, slowly stretched out her other hand, gently stroked her back, and comforted: "It's okay, don't cry Rou'er, I am here, I am here, you first An Xin will be raised, I will find a way."
Under his comfort, Xibi calmed down slowly, only to realize that Xiao Shunzi's hand was stabbed by scissors. She hurriedly pulled a clean cloth and gave him a simple bandage, urging him to go to the hospital. Take some medicine. Xiao Shunzi was worried about her and didn't dare to leave. The Jubilee said: "Let's go, I'm fine, and you will be suspected if you stay here for a long time."
Xiao Shunzi nodded, and then asked: "You should not see the emperor these days. If he comes to Chuxiu Palace, you will only say that his health is not good. Also, be careful of the ladies in this palace. Don't call them. I found out, the less people know about it, the better."
The Jubilee whispered: "I know how to do it, you can go."
Xiao Shunzi then left Chuxiu Palace.
Within two days, Kangxi came to Chuxiu Palace to visit Jubilee again. He refused to stay in bed because of poor health and did not ask Kangxi to enter the house. When Kangxi came to Chuxiu Palace twice, Xibi always avoided seeing her. He just assumed that she was playing sex again, so she lost her patience and simply stopped coming.
A few days later, a total solar eclipse suddenly appeared in the sky. At the meeting, the minister slapped Kangxi's flattery on the celestial phenomenon and replied: "The minister thought that the sky suddenly turned black and suddenly brightened again. Good things are coming to my Qing Dynasty. Please think about it, the emperor. Since the beginning of this year, droughts and floods have continued, just like the darkness of the sky. Now everything has gradually subsided, and it will be like this light. The minister believes that I am the emperor. Under the rule, it will inevitably flourish, and it will get better every year."
Kangxi was quite fond of astronomy and knew that a total solar eclipse was just a natural phenomenon, but he was still a little happy after hearing this, and couldn't help but ask: "Is Ai Qing think so?"
The minister solemnly nodded his head, and there was another minister standing next to him. The icing on the cake said: "The minister also feels that this is a good sign. The first is dark and then the light is clear, which is where the national fortune of my Qing Dynasty is located."
The ministers were all human beings, and after hearing the words, they all praised the total solar eclipse as if auspiciousness descended from the sky. Only a young military commander standing behind suddenly said loudly: "The minister thought that this situation is just a natural phenomenon and has nothing to do with the Qing Dynasty's national fortune."
As soon as the truth came out, the hall suddenly became silent.
Kangxi also couldn't help but was stunned. He smiled a moment later and said: "You are so courageous."
The military commander walked out of the queue and knelt on the ground, and replied in a deep voice: "If you return to the emperor, the minister asked the Qin Tianjian before. He said that this kind of phenomenon will happen once in decades and has nothing to do with national destiny. The emperor is Mingjun. Ming Jun likes to listen to the truth, so the minister boldly refutes these villains who are welcoming to pat the horse."
Kangxi thought for a while, nodded, and said: "Okay, I like people who tell the truth, get up."
The general got up and stood back in the queue again.
When the meeting was over, the fourth elder brother and Longkodo were at the end. The fourth elder brother glanced at the general and asked Longkodo carelessly: "How does uncle think of Gengyao this year?"
Longkodo said with some disdain: "It's just a hereditary general who has no military exploits, and he is sensational."
Unexpectedly, Brother Si shook his head gently and asked in a low voice, "Uncle knows the Changhuan Tower in the suburbs of Beijing?"
Longkodo was taken aback and nodded.
Brother Si said again: "This person is the behind-the-scenes owner of Changhuan Tower."
Longcord was very surprised when he heard it. He couldn't help but glanced at Nian Gengyao who was walking in front of him. Then he whispered to the fourth elder brother: "Is it a mistake? He will be the owner of Changhuan Tower?"
Si elder brother shook his head slowly, took his gaze back from Nian Gengyao, and said softly: "You can't be mistaken, this person once came to my house to apply for the nursing home, I also fought with him, and then Chang Huan After the fire broke out, my thirteenth brother and I went to investigate. He asked someone to send me a booklet, which recorded the private conversations of the ministers."
Longkodo asked, "So, does he really have ulterior motives when he opened the Changhuan Tower?"
