As if she had slept for a long time, Meng Eqi woke up with pain all over her body. She sat up on the couch, pinched her sore shoulders, and shouted, "Come in."
Silent silence answered her.
Meng Eqi was puzzled for a moment. She looked around the room, but there was no one there. The only thing in the room was the slender and long-necked copper crane furnace, which was slowly exhaling white smoke. Meng Qiqi scratched his forehead, feeling very strange.
It shouldn't be, according to what happened when she fell into the water, the queen mother must be the first person to worry, how could she wake up without anyone? And where is Sheng Jiayan
At this moment, Meng Eqi heard the voice of someone speaking from the outer hall of the cubicle. The outer hall and the inner room were blocked by a thick curtain. Meng Qiqi pricked up her ears and listened carefully, capturing Mrs. Jiang's voice.
"His Royal Highness can't disturb the Empress, the Empress needs to rest."
Then came Zhou Yuli's immature voice: "Yu'er knows, I hope my mother will wake up soon."
What? ! Has Sheng Jiayan woke up yet? !
Meng Eqi hurriedly stepped on her shoes and hurriedly walked to the outer hall. Maybe it was because she was worried that Sheng Jiayan's heart was too much, and she even ignored today's shoes that didn't fit her feet.
Meng Qiqi lifted the hanging curtain and shouted angrily, "Where is the queen!"
The air was suddenly quiet.
Meng Eqi looked at "self" sitting on the dragon seat in the main hall, "Zhou Xing" frowned a pair of indifferent eyebrows, and was staring at her closely at this time. The imperial doctor and the imperial doctor standing in the lower row all looked at Meng Eqi with shocked expressions, and Zhou Yuli sat on the stool with the scroll in his hands, dumbfounded.
Afterwards, he asked Taifu Jiang in a low voice: "Taifu, the queen mother doesn't seem to be very weak."
Meng Eqi was completely stunned. If Zhou Xing's body is sitting there, who is she standing here now? ! Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind, so she subconsciously pressed her hands on her chest.
The tentacles were soft, and Meng Eqi's brain immediately went blank.
Change it back? ! It's just falling into the water, she and Sheng Jiayan actually exchanged back
Her actions caused shocks in the hearts of all the witnesses present, and Mrs. Jiang was even more surprised. Sheng Jiayan's face was already very bad, and he said coldly, "You guys step back first."
The imperial doctor said tremblingly: "Your Majesty, do you need the old minister to take a look at the queen's concubine..."
"Go on," Sheng Jiayan had already got up and walked towards Meng Qiqi: "I see that the Queen is alive and well, and there is no need to diagnose the pulse."
"Yes." The imperial doctor felt as if he was amnesty and left the hall with a medicine box and the brim of his hat.
"Mother, you are awake." Zhou Yuli jumped off the stool, opened his hands and rushed towards Meng Qiqi.
He fantasized about being hugged by Meng Eqi, and Meng Eqi did stretch out his hand to catch him. However, as soon as Zhou Yuli ran to Meng Eqi, the collar was ruthlessly grabbed by Sheng Jiayan, and then Sheng Jiayan threw him to Mrs. Jiang who was standing beside him.
Mrs. Jiang hugged Zhou Yuli, who was young and ignorant, and hurriedly saluted and retired.
Mrs. Jiang hurried away with Zhou Yuli in his arms, and their conversation still drifted into Meng Eqi's ears.
"Teacher, let me down, I still have to visit my mother..."
"His Royal Highness, recognizing the eyes is also the first step to becoming an emperor. You will understand later. Now that Your Majesty and the Empress have an important business discussion, we will go back to Chengqian Palace to learn the calligraphy."
Meng Qiqi was no longer in the mood to eavesdrop on what happened to Taifu and Zhou Yuli. She only knew that when Sheng Jiayan's figure was close, she was shrouded in Sheng Jiayan's shadow.
"Amen," he frowned and said in a displeased tone, "how can you appear in front of the minister dressed like this."
Meng Eqi looked down at what she was wearing. She was only wearing a white satin lining, her long hair was loose, and she was standing barefoot on the cold ground.
"You can't blame me, and I didn't know we had changed back." Meng Eqi muttered, turned back to the bed and sat down: "It's so strange, why did we change back when we fell into the water? I haven't Enough to be king!"
Sheng Jiayan raised his eyebrows slightly, and sat beside Meng Eqi with an interested expression: "You are not enough? It just so happens that there are memorials that haven't been approved yesterday on the table. You can read them together."
Meng Eqi shrank her neck immediately after hearing this: "No need, you still come."
Sheng Jiayan pressed her shoulders, wanting Meng Eqi to lie down and rest for a while. Who knew that Meng Qiqi's head just hit the pillow, and he immediately bounced back.
"No, I'm going to trouble Jing Fan!"
"Why?"
Meng Qiqi opened her mouth, but she didn't know how to tell Sheng Jiayan, so she could only grit her teeth and say, "I suspect that he is using his Taoism in the palace to do something wrong!"
Otherwise, why did she take his jade pendant, and she and Sheng Jiayan immediately exchanged it. If it was really what Jing Fan did, who knows what his purpose was? Meng Qiqi had to beat and beat him to prevent him from doing something even more unpredictable!
As if Sheng Jiayan had expected it, he took out the piece of jade pendant from his arms: "This is yours?"
Meng Qiqi nodded: "Jing Fan must know something, I am why he gave me a jade pendant. He also gave me fifty taels! Unscrupulous businessman!"
"In this case, you don't have to trouble him anymore, because it's useless to find it." Sheng Jiayan handed her the jade pendant and said lightly: "He did it, he won't admit it. It wasn't him, you ask It's no use. If you really want to change something, you should change the problem that you help others at every turn. If you don't know a lot about him, it is risky to take him with you."
Meng Qiqi was naturally speechless. After thinking for a long time, she said without remorse: "Because I think he may know some unknown things about Meng Yong, so he wants to take it with him."
At this point, Meng Eqi was suddenly shocked. How did she forget about it? ! Jing Fan and his apprentice Jing He obviously have a purpose for Meng Yong. She was not worried when Sheng Jiayan was Meng Yong, but now that she is herself, doesn't it mean that danger is around you!
Now she regretted it, and dragged Sheng Jiayan's sleeve with a sad face: "Then what should I do, Ayan! I don't think Jing Fan is a simple person, will he treat me... ah no, do something to Meng Yong! "
Sheng Jiayan didn't change his face and lowered his eyes to look at her: "Now you know you're afraid?" Sheng Jiayan raised his hand and stroked the top of Meng Qiqi's hair, his fine eyelashes covered the deep pool-like eyes, he comforted: "It's alright. , I have everything."
Sheng Jiayan's guess was correct. After this fall into the water, Meng Qiqi occasionally found opportunities to approach Jing Fan to test the jade pendant, but Jing Fan looked innocent. Because the exchange of souls is really shocking, it is not easy to talk to Jing Fan, and Jing Fan insists that there is no problem with the jade pendant, it is just a good intention called Satisfaction. As a result, Meng Qiqi didn't know why it happened, not to mention that Jingfan has been diligent and diligent since he entered the palace, and he used to make friends. Now in the palace, from the empress dowager to the palace maids, they all praise him well. Everyone will put the sacred beasts he carved at home to worship, although these wood carvings have no effect at all.
Jing Fan is also very low-key, he only accepts the silver taels he should receive, and he will not accept the extra. Because he bears the title of 'Queen's Master', many people want to flatter him, but they are all turned away by his eccentric personality.
For a moment, Meng Qiqi felt that everyone in the palace liked this Jing Fan, except that she and Sheng Jiayan were still a little wary of him.
…
One autumn night, when the surroundings were silent, Meng Qiqi, who was sleeping on the bed, was woken up by a sudden abdominal pain. She groped to get out of bed, pushed open the door with her shoes on, and walked staggeringly to the thatched hut.
In the thatched hut, Meng Eqi released Gongtong for a while, and there was only a 'puff, puff' in the ground. She closed her eyes, feeling like she was about to fall asleep.
However, there was a voice outside at this time that did not fit the situation. At first it sounded like wind, but after Meng Eqi listened carefully, she found that someone was whispering.
"Why are you here, leave quickly, if we are seen, we will be finished." It was a female voice, sounding a little anxious and worried.
"Yu'er!" The man's voice was full of lovesickness that could not be concealed, and his voice was slightly louder than the woman's: "I have endured humiliation for so many days, so that I don't see you only. I know you lived in the palace. No, as long as you are willing to leave with me, I am willing to do anything for you. I am not afraid of death, I am just afraid that you will forget our original oath."
The woman called Yu'er was a little sad and said, "But what's the use, Brother Yi, I've already been the emperor's concubine. Even if the emperor may not remember me at all, I can't get out. If you live with me, I don't want it to trap you, and while you are still in your prime, go out and make a living and forget about me."
"I won't leave, as long as you don't promise me, I won't leave the palace!" The man was a little excited: "I've been lurking in the palace for so long, and I've only been assigned the job of pouring the bucket. you left."
Meng Eqi knew that at this time, it was not suitable for her to disturb the conversation between a pair of idiots and a woman. But when the man arrived at the job of pouring the bucket, Meng Eqi suddenly couldn't help but want to burst into laughter, but fortunately she suppressed the laughter suddenly, but she ignored her stomach.
In the silent night, men and women looked at each other with infatuation and tears. But there was a fart sound that was very damaging to the atmosphere from the hut next to it.
The man immediately became vigilant, and the woman named Yu'er was also shocked.
"There is someone in the hut!"
"Who's inside, come out!" Xu Shi was afraid of attracting guards, but the man's voice was not loud.
There was a rustling sound in the hut, and then the door was silently opened, and Meng Qiqi showed an embarrassed face.
"Queen Empress?" The woman named Yu'er found out that she was the queen, and her whole body trembled because of fear.
