After returning from the Hall of Mental Cultivation, he began to claim that he was not ill.
Others thought that she was temporarily out because of the fourth elder brother's affairs to avoid the limelight. In fact, she had a real headache and couldn't get out of bed.
"Wait." Yuan Chunwang called to the palace maid who was about to enter the door, "The Empress is in a bad mood, you are so clean, are you trying to touch the empress' brow?"
The palace maid's name was Yunxiang, and she had just entered the palace, at a young age, with a beautiful face, looked back at him, and said timidly, "Then what do you say?"
Yuan Chunwang looked left and right, and saw peach blossoms blooming outside the corridor, one of which came slantingly.
His eyes are so focused and his voice is so gentle, I don't know if he is complimenting flowers or people.
Yunxiang blushed with shame, looked around for a moment, and whispered, "Be careful not to let Aunt Zhen see it, I'm going to be scolded."
Yuan Chunwang looks so good-looking, like a peach blossom in ten miles, shining brightly, which palace maid doesn't like him? Zhen'er had become an old girl who no one wanted because she was single because of him, so she looked at him even more closely. Any palace maid who dared to look at him again would be slapped by Zhen'er when she turned around.
Yunxiang carefully helped the peach blossoms on her temples, and went into the house to deliver medicine. Afterwards, she was ill and haggard, and asked Zhener beside her, "When will the emperor come?"
"It's almost time." Zhener said, "The emperor has a big court meeting today. When the emperor is done, he will definitely come to visit you."
Then he nodded: "Bring the mirror, Ben Gong wants to dress up."
Even Zhener was a little reluctant, because in the past few years, she would be in a bad mood when she looked in the mirror.
"Here..." Sure enough, he then stroked his neck and said, "Are there many more wrinkles?"
Before Jane could open her mouth, her hand moved up her neck and touched the corner of her eye.
"And here." There was a hint of panic and panic in her voice, "Is there an extra stripe? Look, look!"
Zhen'er hurriedly said: "Niangniang, no, really not!"
"You lied to me!" Then he got angry, "Why even you lied to me, obviously there is, look! It's here!"
Zhen'er sighed: "Niang Niang, you are suffering from heart disease, your face is clearly as beautiful as ever!"
Women in the harem are properly maintained, and they will age more slowly than others, not to mention that the future cares about these things, and maintenance is more diligent and quicker than other palace concubines, so her face is smooth and bright, although there are wrinkles, but not so Many, if you don't look carefully, you can't see it at all.
As Jane said, it's a heart attack...
At this time, Yunxiang walked in: "Mother, it's time to take medicine."
After seeing the peach blossoms in her hair at a glance, the corners of her eyes twitched, and without thinking much, she slapped the person on the face, knocked the person to the ground, and said coldly, "Who is this enchanting for?"
Her nails were slender, and there was a long bloodstain on Yunxiang's face. She wanted to cover it, but she didn't dare to cover it. She wanted to explain, but she didn't dare to explain. For fear that an explanation would provoke Zhener's jealousy, she had to kowtow and apologize: "Queen Niangniang, the slaves don’t dare, the slaves don’t dare anymore!”
Afterwards, I originally wanted her to kneel for a while and kowtow a few more times to calm myself down, but unexpectedly Hongli walked in, glanced at the broken porcelain and rue on the ground, frowned and said, "Queen, what is this servant doing? You're angry?"
After that, he hurriedly got up and saluted, and was pushed back to the bed by him: "Aren't you sick, rest."
If it is really serious, where will the strength come from to attack the next person? After thinking of this, I hated Yunxiang even more, and felt that she not only put on heavy makeup and wanted to seduce Hongli, but also caused herself to be suspected by Hongli. Said: "Your Majesty, why did your concubine become so ill, do you still not understand?"
Hongli was silent.
"This is a heart disease." Then he pressed his heart and said sadly, "You don't say it, but in your heart you are suspicious of the concubine, thinking that the concubine murdered the fifth brother and put the blame on Yongxuan, right? "
Hongli does not say yes, nor does it say no.
Such an attitude, on the contrary, proved that he was suspicious.
Afterwards, his face became bitter, and he complained to himself: "Since childhood, Yongxuan had a headache, and his concubine never waited all night! Every time he recovered, his concubine fell ill. He put so much effort into him. , but in exchange for resentment, I can only blame the lack of people's hearts. The concubine doesn't care about other people's misunderstandings, but the emperor, you have to trust the concubine!"
Although he didn't hoarse his voice, his sharp fingernails had already digged into Hongli's flesh. Hongli looked at the haggard-looking woman in front of him and said, "Empress, you are not very ill... Come here, Xuan Imperial Physician!"
"Chen and concubine are not sick!" He tried to hug him, but he broke away. Hongli got up and left, shouting: "Li Yu, Imperial Doctor Xuan will consult the Queen! Immediately!"
Seeing that Hongli left without looking back, her face gradually turned cold, she suddenly turned her head and said to Zhen'er, "Pull that cheap servant down and whip it for thirty."
Zhen'er said in surprise, "My lady..."
Afterwards, he said sternly: "The palace maid should not wear heavy makeup and compete for beauty. She broke the rules. If this palace is not punished, who will abide by the rules in the future!"
It's just that she knew in her heart that the rules and regulations were irregular, but she was just expressing her anger.
Zhener also knew it in her heart, but isn't this thing of servants to share the worries and solve problems for the master, if it can make the successor feel more happy, she will be beaten, so she quickly went out and ordered, and the people whipped Yunxiang three times. Ten clicks, then come back to report and listen.
Afterwards, she no longer cared about the unfortunate person. She leaned on the bed, stunned, and sighed after a long time: "The emperor refuses to believe in this palace after all! Sincerely, why did he bite back... Why is there such a weirdness in this matter, I have to think about it, I have to think about it... "
She was so tired, and the anxiety of the days made her headache worse, especially the temples, the pain would not stop when she thought about things, so she thought about it and fell asleep.
When I opened my eyes again, it was the next morning.
Xu is because she slept well last night, so her headache has subsided a lot, while Zhen'er applied her face, she said: "Empress Empress, this hoof has been boiled into glue for a long time, evenly spread it on the face every night, and then use acid in the morning. After the serum is washed, the fine lines on the face will disappear, you can see."
She handed over a mirror and took a look at it. Before she could find any flaws in the mirror, there was a sudden chirping of birds outside. When she looked up, she saw Yuan Chunwang came in with a bird cage. A green parrot with bright feathers and bright eyes.
"The Queen Mother, and the prince sent the parrot into the palace." Yuan Chunwang handed over the bird cage, "Look, is it exactly the same as the one before?"
After that, he raised his hand to take it, looked at it for a while, and a smile gradually appeared on his face: "It's exactly the same, good, the blessing of this palace is back!"
The smile didn't last long when a eunuch suddenly rushed in from outside: "Empress Empress, Yunxiang committed suicide by throwing herself into the well!"
Then he looked at the other party: "What did you say?"
The eunuch replied cautiously: "Director Li sent someone to search for the whereabouts of the eunuch Jinzhong, but he couldn't find him, but he found a pair of embroidered shoes by the well in the West Palace, and he sent people to salvage them, and they found Yunxiang's body."
He didn't say a word, and he didn't dare to say it. The corpse of Rue Xiang was covered in scars and horrible to see. It was obvious that he had suffered a great deal of torture during his lifetime. All were silent.
After that, his chest rose and fell for a moment, and he asked, "Does the emperor already know?"
Eunuch: "...Yes."
"Bitch!" Then, in a fit of rage, he smashed the birdcage with his hands, and the birdcage smashed to the ground. The parrots inside flew wildly, and the sharp calls and feathers flew out of the cage together.
I used to regard it as a blessing, but now I look at it, but it is just a piece of chicken feathers.
"Ha, I'm deceiving myself!" Then he said mockingly, "If the parrot is gone, it's gone, and it's not the original one that came back! Go out, get out of everyone!!"
Together with Zhener, a group of people was kicked out of the dormitory by her, and there was a sound of beating from inside, urging everyone to step faster.
Yuan Chunwang walked at the end, his slender fingers still holding the birdcage, and he was still leisurely reaching out to tease the frightened parrot inside. Suddenly, a hand stretched out from behind and pulled him back.
He turned back and asked gently, "what's the matter with you?"
Zhener stared at him fiercely: "You are still hiding from me, how did Yunxiang die?"
