Yan Sui's eyes were as clear as spring streams, reflecting Qin Wan's face cleanly, Qin Wan was stunned for a moment when he saw his expression, and when she realized, Yan Sui had already grabbed her sleeves, "Who is it? Can you tell me? I promise I won't tell."
The corners of Qin Wan's lips were tightly pursed, and her face turned pale, but Yan Sui's eyes were wide open, as if she must give an answer.
Qin Wan sighed, "I don't know yet."
Yan Sui frowned, and said with a bit of aggrieved tone, "Will you lie to me?"
Qin Wan was startled slightly, then shook her head with some difficulty, she didn't want to lie to Yan Sui, but some lies had to be told...
Yan Sui looked at Qin Wan for a moment, then lowered his head, "Okay, I believe you."
Qin Wan brushed Fu Yansui's hair, "Okay, the snow is playing, it's a bit cold outside, let's go into the Nuan Pavilion."
Yan Sui let out a muffled "Yes", and followed Qin Wan to the main hall. When he arrived at the main hall, he saw Yan Li coming at some time. The two of them walked far away just now, but they didn't hear Yan Li coming. Seeing Qin Wan, Yan Li smiled and said, "Fortunately, you are here to accompany him. Every time the emperor's grandmother gets sick, this little guy also wilts."
Yan Sui is now relying on the queen mother to live in the palace, if not for the care of the queen mother, he still doesn't know what it would be like to be treated coldly.
Nanny Chen came out from Nuan Pavilion and said, "The Empress Dowager is still awake."
Yan Li and Qin Wan were not in a hurry to go in after hearing the words, Yan Li glanced at Qin Wan and said, "Is the Hou Mansion okay?"
Qin Wan sighed, "Uncle is a smart man, he knows that this time is of great importance." After a pause, Qin Wan asked again, "By the way, the old people from Donggong and Kunning Palace..."
Yan Li shook his head, "They were all sent to the Department of Imperial Punishment."
It's the Department of Imperial Punishment again... Qin Wan narrowed her eyes. Few of the people who entered that place could come out alive. What's more, this time the prince and queen fled privately because of treason.
The atmosphere became heavy in an instant, Yan Li stood beside Qin Wan and did not speak, only Yan Sui held Qin Wan's hand tightly, Qin Wan lowered his head and bent his lips towards him, Yan Sui was not so nervous now, not long , Yan Li suddenly said, "I haven't seen Seventh Brother these two days, what is he doing?"
Qin Wan came back to his senses and shook his head, "I don't know, I must be busy with the yamen."
Yan Li couldn't help laughing, "That's right. Now that Minister of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs has filed for sick leave, Brother Seven is the only person in charge of the huge Yamen of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. At the end of the year, Shangshu Song may have to retire and return to his hometown. At that time, the Emperor may let Brother Seven do the job." The Shangshu is in charge of the Ministry of Punishment, and Brother Qi will be the youngest Shangshu lord in Da Zhou!"
Yan Li said it happily, but Qin Wan couldn't be happy when he heard it. If there hadn't been an accident with Prince Rui, maybe Yan Chi would have become the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment...
"Everything depends on the emperor's will." Qin Wan's tone was very calm.
Yan Li then turned to look at Qin Wan, "Qin Wan, don't you want Brother Seven to stay with you in the capital?"
Qin Wan looked at Yan Li with a heartbeat, but saw Yan Li's expression was calm, but there was not much doubt, Qin Wan said, "Why do you ask such a question?"
Yan Li said in a leisurely manner, "The emperor's grandmother said long ago that if Brother Qi is not left in the capital, according to his temperament, he must go to the battlefield, but you should know that on the battlefield, there are no swords and no eyes." , although Seventh Brother is brave and good at fighting, but I don't want him to take this risk."
Qin Wan said helplessly, "I didn't think so much, everything is up to him to decide."
Yan Li sighed, "Seventh Brother loves you so much, if you let him stay in the court as an official, he will definitely be willing."
Qin Wan took a deep look at Yan Li for a moment, "If that's the case, of course."
Yan Li glanced at Yan Sui, who was drooping his head, and touched the top of his head before saying, "Grandmother's health is getting worse day by day, and now these troubles are happening again, I only hope that Grandmother is in good health, and that Brother Seven will be healthy." Stay in Beijing, I hope everyone is well."
He murmured, but Qin Wan could only smile wryly in his heart.
That secret has not been revealed to the world, if Yan Li knows the truth...
"If that's the case, of course..."
While the two were talking, there was a noise in the warm pavilion, but it was the empress dowager who woke up.
Several people rushed into the warm pavilion to salute and say hello.
When she woke up and saw so many people there, the Queen Mother also seemed a little happy, but her expression fell on Yan Li's face when she entered the door in a daze, as if she saw someone else through Yan Li's face, and then Even Qin Wan and Yan Sui didn't pay attention to salute...
Qin Wan felt something was wrong and called out, "Empress Dowager?"
Standing aside, Nanny Chen also felt a slight change in color, "Ma'am?"
This time, the queen mother was called back to her senses. The queen mother looked at the other people and said with a sigh, "Oh, I was stunned. At that moment, I seemed to see Yanli and his father come back. , Misread, misread, come, come, sit down."
The queen mother's spirit is getting worse and worse, and she can admit the wrong person like she did at the beginning of the year. This discovery naturally makes everyone worry.
The Empress Dowager leaned on the pillow, looking at Yan Li for a while, Yan Sui for a while, and Qin Wan for a while. She listened to what Yan Li said, and answered twice from time to time, but it was obvious that her attention had been lost. Difficult to concentrate, Qin Wan looked anxious and waited for a while before asking the queen mother for pulse. Nanny Chen was also very anxious, but she didn't dare to show it in front of the queen mother. When Qin Wan finished asking for pulse, she hurriedly pulled Qin Wan out.
"Princess, how is it? The Empress Dowager seems to be back at the beginning of the year."
The end of last year was when the Empress Dowager was at her worst, and after the Chinese New Year, the Empress Dowager was on the verge of life and death, relying on Qin Wan's medical skills to save the Empress Dowager back.
Now, Nanny Chen seems to have seen the empress dowager's dazed look at the end of last year again.
Qin Wan frowned, "I didn't want to prescribe strong medicine to the empress dowager, but now I don't need it, but it won't work. I will change the prescription, and I will also change the diet. I must let the empress dowager eat. If it doesn't work, I will give it to you." It’s just that it’s too painful for the empress dowager now.”
Mother Chen's eyes turned red when she heard this, and Qin Wan had no choice but to comfort her, "Don't worry, mother, these days, don't let the empress dowager get angry, no matter what happens outside, it's best not to tell the empress dowager, let her Just rest in peace."
Mother Chen responded again and again, since Qin Wan said so, the Queen Mother must be seriously ill. Could it be that the Queen Mother can't survive this winter? !
When Qin Wan went in again, he saw the queen mother holding Yan Li's hand and said, "Your father loves swords the most. He has liked swords since he was a child, but you don't like them. , but he just took a fancy to your mother. Although your mother came from a family of military generals, your grandmother is the daughter of a scholar of the two lakes. After your grandmother married into the Fu family, she taught your mother very well since she was a child. All the words and deeds are taught by the ladies in the Jiangnan area. There are more rules in the Jiangnan than in the north. Your mother is gentle and beautiful. Your father fell in love with your mother when he first saw him. When it comes to piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry and poetry, your mother is also one of the first in the capital. Your father said back then that your mother looks like a character who came out of a painting..."
The Empress Dowager leaned on the pillow and talked as if she was telling a story, Yan Li listened with a smile on her face, while Yan Sui sat obediently beside her.
Looking at it this way, the descriptions of Yan Li and Yan Sui are even more similar.
Yan Han likes people like Princess Gong, and isn't Concubine Jin also a gentle and talented woman from a scholarly family
Qin Wan looked at Yan Li, then at Yan Sui, feeling very uncomfortable in his heart, and seeing the Queen Mother again, Qin Wan couldn't bear it even more, now that the Queen Mother's body can't stand a little trouble, if she knows the secret at this time, I'm afraid Even if she tried her best, she couldn't save her.
The queen mother talked about the past in detail, and Yan Li listened attentively. After a while, the queen mother waved to Qin Wan, "Girl Wan, are the paintings that Yan Chi took away last time enough? I got some more here." Good item, I will ask Chen to find it for you."
Qin Wan hurriedly said, "Have you forgotten, Madam, my dowry is all ready, and I don't need anything right now."
The Empress Dowager looked at Nanny Chen in a daze, and Nanny Chen smiled and said, "The Empress Dowager is worried, she always wants to reward the Princess, it is because she cleaned up the treasury two days ago and found that the Empress Dowager has a few pieces of unopened purple jade here. , White jade, are all excellent things, the Empress Dowager said at the time, leave half of it for Princess Yongning, and send the rest to you."
Qin Wan's heart was moved, and she hurriedly said, "No need, no need, the dowry is too heavy, it's not good to surpass my eighth sister."
The queen mother heard the words and said again, "Don't you like painting? I still have a few paintings in my place, do you want them?"
Qin Wan continued with a wry smile and said, "No need this time, you keep it and give it to me later..."
Yan Li smiled and said, "Why didn't the imperial grandmother reward me? What kind of painting do you have here?"
The queen mother smiled, "What will I do for you? You don't marry a wife, they are all old paintings, and some paintings from the emperor's early years. They are in my warehouse here, and they have not been put away. It was your seventh brother who came to remind me last time." If it’s me, I should also put it back here.”
Yan Li looked at Qin Wan, "Did you take a look at the painting that brother Seven took back last time? If you are not satisfied, then choose two more?"
Qin Wan smiled and refused, "I want to take them all away, but I'm afraid that everyone will say that the Empress Dowager prefers me, that would be bad. The Empress Dowager will keep these treasures for Yue Ning, or You can reward me later."
The last time Yan Chi looked for the painting book to find out why Concubine Jin had seen the emperor's paintings before the accident. At that time they picked two paintings, but they didn't see why. Now, although the queen mother handed the words to her, she has never Knowing the truth, the dagger will naturally not accept the Queen Mother's reward, even if there are paintings before the emperor ascended the throne in these paintings, although Qin Wan and Yan Chi did not expressly say that they must be careful, but Qin Wan has subconsciously become cautious .
Hearing that Yan Li didn't try to persuade her any more, she changed her mind and asked for a painting with the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager had no choice but to let Yan Li go.
They stayed with the Queen Mother all afternoon, and when the sun was setting, Qin Wan took his leave. Yan Li saw her get up, and he also said goodbye. The two left the main hall, and just as they walked to the door, they saw a young eunuch He told Nanny Chen something in a low voice, Nanny Chen's expression was extremely ugly.
Qin Wan and Yan Li looked at each other and walked forward together, Yan Li asked, "What happened?"
Chen Nanny turned around and saw that it was Qin Wan and Yan Li, and immediately asked the little eunuch to step back, "Your Highness, Princess, this is a matter of Changxin Palace."
Speaking of Changxin Palace, Yan Li frowned even tighter, "Concubine Feng? What's the matter? What happened?"
Nanny Chen showed a distressed expression, "I shouldn't have said this to His Highness, but His Highness is walking in this palace, and sooner or later he will know that... Concubine Feng Gui has been ill recently."
Yan Li still didn't know the saying of being haunted by evil spirits, so he said helplessly, "If you are sick, you should call the imperial doctor. Why did you find you here? Right now, the emperor's grandmother is not in good health, so don't you care if the imperial concubine is sick or not?"
Mother Chen smiled bitterly, "It's not so simple, Your Highness, Concubine Feng Gui is ill, but His Highness Cheng Wang thinks that she is not ill, but bewitched by evil spirits. Today, I invited a warlock from the Qin Tianjian to Changxin Palace to do it. You know , the empress dowager doesn't like this the most, so there are little palace people to report."
"If you're sick, you don't see a doctor, but instead hire a warlock?! Why did King Cheng suddenly believe in these things?!"
Nanny Chen sighed helplessly, "I heard that the imperial physician was invited, but they couldn't see anything. They only said that the imperial concubine was worried too much. She prescribed prescriptions and drank medicine, but it didn't work. But no one knew that she was worried. What, it seems like a different person, I usually like to go to the Chongzheng Palace, but I haven’t been there these days. That’s all, I still can’t sleep all night, have nightmares, and I’m afraid that someone will harm her, hey, It's no wonder that King Cheng's thinking is wrong, it's indeed a bit weird."
Yan Li's phoenix eyes narrowed, "The warlock finished the ritual, did you say anything?"
Nanny Chen shook her head, "I can't say anything, that's Changxin Palace, and the warlocks don't dare to talk nonsense."
It seems like a different person...
I used to like to go to the Chongzheng Palace most, but now I suddenly don’t go...
Difficulty sleeping at night, having nightmares, fearing that someone will harm her...
Qin Wan's eyebrows twitched when he heard that, Feng Lingsu's appearance was very similar to Concubine Jin's panic before the accident, and Concubine Jin knew the secret, so did Feng Lingsu also know it? Qin Wan hurriedly asked, "Since when did the imperial concubine become ill?"
Chen Momo thought for a while and said, "It should be...after the fifth princess got married!"
On the day when the fifth princess was married, Qin Wan did not enter the palace to attend the ceremony, but on that day, he heard that the emperor released the prince and queen to send them off. Because of this, when the news came back to the Marquis, Hu thought that the queen and prince wanted to see the blue sky through the clouds. I did, but I didn't expect that the emperor really just wanted to marry the two of them.
That day the queen left the Kunning Palace, accepted the speech ceremony, and climbed a tall building. It is reasonable to say that she met Feng Lingsu face to face. Could it be that...
Qin Wan had some doubts in his heart, but he was not sure. If Feng Lingsu found out at this time, what benefit would the queen get
Qin Wan couldn't figure it out. Every time she encountered an unthinkable joint, she wanted to see Yan Chi, and it was the same at this time. She settled her mind, and when she turned her head, she saw that Yan Li was also thinking about something, and she saw herself looking over. , Yanli said, "Grandmother doesn't like these things, it's good that grandma knows the news, don't let grandma know, grandma sends someone to Changxin Palace, and uses grandma's token to order, Let Changxin Palace stop doing things openly in the future."
Hearing Yan Li's order, Nanny Chen felt in a daze that His Royal Highness Prince Gong had grown up a lot. Although the tone of these words was very peaceful, there was an unquestionable momentum, and Nanny Chen quickly complied.
