Because he had just had the idea of pretending to be faint, Yun Fenghuang calmed down, and his second thought was: Is he faking it
For this reason, she did not go out and call someone immediately, but struggled to support Chunjia and looked at him suspiciously.
After looking at it like this, she realized that Chun Jia's expression was surprisingly bad.
The emperor, who inherited the beauty of Queen Mother Qu, had a handsome face, and his face had always been like a crown, and his eyes were as cold as stars. Looking at the light not far away, I saw that his face was no longer the usual radiant one, but an ominous pale color. , there were two dark blue spots under his eyes, it was obvious that he had not been able to take a good rest for a long time.
Yun Fenghuang immediately remembered that although Chunjia was busy before, he did not say that he was hurt. He was not stupid. How could he not know that for an emperor, especially one with a shallow foundation and an unstable status, the health of his body was very important. How important.
In the final analysis, it was because he was stationed at Huanhua Palace in person during her near-death coma. He was so busy that he had to take care of her four children and investigate the truth, so he was overworked.
He was relieved after she woke up, but... one thing followed another, and he never had the chance to breathe a sigh of relief and make up for the previous losses.
"...A Ji? Ah Ji!" Yun Fenghuang's remaining conscience rarely felt a little pain. She reached out her hand to caress his cheek and called out a few times tentatively.
In the coma, Chunjia's eyebrows were still slightly furrowed, her thin lips were pursed tightly, and her lip color was very light and bloodless. Her long eyelashes were like feather fans, dragging thick shadows on her eyelids, making her face even more pale. The eyebrows and eyelashes are like ink, like an exquisite meticulous painting, but there is not much life.
This finally made Yun Fenghuang panic. She raised her voice and shouted a few words. Seeing that Chunjia still had her eyes closed and showed no reaction, she bit the tip of her tongue hard to force herself to calm down and reached out to detect his breath.
Fortunately, although Chunjia's breathing was weaker than usual, it was still there.
It's just intermittent and very unstable.
Yun Fenghuang carefully put him on the footrest, turned around and pulled the quilt to cover him, and then walked out quietly.
At this time, the ministers were already waiting at the palace gate to prepare for the court meeting. They must not let them know about Chunjia's fainting... Yun Fenghuang carefully concealed her figure, went to look for Qing Ren behind, and ordered her to try to avoid disturbing others. , called Yan to bring him into the inner hall for discussion.
"Your Majesty, what's going on?!" Seeing Chun Jia lying on the footrest and covered with a quilt, Yan Yin suddenly changed his expression and asked, "Xian Fei, your Majesty was fine when you came in just now!"
No wonder he was so suspicious. After all, when Chunjia came in just now, not only was the emperor in good shape, but the palace was also in good shape.
Now that the emperor was lying on his feet, the palace was in a mess. Considering Yun Fenghuang's reputation, it was possible that she knocked the emperor unconscious in a fit of rage.
This was because there were no traces visible on Chun Jia's exposed head, otherwise Yan Yin would have probably run out and called someone to come over and capture Concubine Xian.
"I don't know. Just now, His Majesty was sitting there talking with me, and suddenly he fell down." Yun Fenghuang told him to shut up with a cold face, "Otherwise, you can speak louder and shout Everyone in the harem knows this, so ask the former court to quickly find out what happened to His Majesty’s body?!”
Yan Yin looked sullen, but after all, he was the imperial chamberlain and knew that the overall situation was of paramount importance. He suppressed his anger and asked, "What do you mean?"
"When I sent someone to Qiongfang Palace to invite His Majesty, didn't I tell you that I wasn't feeling well?" Yun Fenghuang took a deep breath and whispered, "I'll ask the Qing people to invite the imperial doctor later. He said it was for me! Then I would like to ask you, Eunuch Yanyin, to go to the previous court and ask for a leave of absence. The reason is that the remaining poison in me has not been cleared up, and I have a sudden attack and my life is in danger... Your Majesty is not at ease, so you stay and take care of me personally. "
"... I know this." Yan Yin had a stern look on his face. He knew that Yun Fenghuang was very favored by Chunjia, so although he had always been polite to Xuanqing Palace, today he was really angry, and it was just hindering the overall situation. He had fallen out with Yun Fenghuang, so he responded coldly and was about to leave.
After taking two steps, he was stopped by Yun Fenghuang: "You are not allowed to report to Chunwu Palace and Jiashan Palace before noon!"
Yan Yin was angry and turned to her and said: "Please forgive me for not daring to hide the truth from the two empress dowagers! Although I know that the two empress dowagers will definitely ask the empress after knowing the truth, I am the one who serves your majesty after all. As a result, your majesty is like this now, and this servant is confused about what happened. This is already a huge dereliction of duty! If you can't report to the two empress dowagers in time, what will your majesty want your servant to do?"
Yun Fenghuang sneered and said: "Do you think I'm afraid of being punished so I'm telling you this? You don't even think about such a big thing. Even if the two empress dowagers want to deal with me immediately, they can still make a big fuss at this moment. ? I am afraid that people will spread the word and leak the news! After all, the two empress dowagers are currently ill. Even if they were not ill, how could they go to great lengths to visit Xuanqing Palace in person because of me? This move will not only easily leak the news, but also cause trouble. What’s the use of the two empress dowagers worrying about each other?!”
When she said this, she looked at Yan Yin suspiciously, "I only called you here because I thought you would be loyal to His Majesty. Now look at... Why can't you tell what to do to help? Your Majesty’s, or was it intentional?”
"..." Yan Yin said with a stern face, "This slave will listen to your Majesty in everything before noon."
The implication is that it may not be so in the afternoon.
Yun Fenghuang calmly waved his hand and asked him to quickly go to the front to ask for leave for Chunjia. Together with the Qing people, he carried Chunjia to the bed and put down the curtain: "It's done, you go and teach the imperial doctor, remember Find the one from before, and only let him in!"
Qingren asked a little nervously: "Empress, Your Majesty, he...?"
"He's fine." Yun Fenghuang was actually very nervous at the moment, but she knew she couldn't mess up. If she messed up, the people below would be doubly panicked, so her attitude was very calm, "It's just that I'm tired from handling government affairs these past two days. , just wait until the imperial doctor comes to take a look."
"...Oh." Qingren glanced at Chunjia in disbelief. He felt that the emperor's face did not look like he was in any serious trouble, so he went out in panic to find someone to summon the imperial doctor.
There were only two emperors and concubines left in the palace. Yun Fenghuang stood by the couch for a while. He couldn't tell whether he was regretful or depressed and sighed softly, then turned around to see Chunjia.
His breathing was still very weak, but fortunately it didn't stop.
The slightly frowning eyebrows looked particularly troubled, as if even when he lost consciousness, he couldn't completely put aside all kinds of troubles.
Yun Fenghuang looked at him for a while, then subconsciously reached out to calm the frown between his brows.
Just after smoothing him a little, Chunjia frowned subconsciously.
… How many worries does this person have
Yun Fenghuang pursed his lips and nodded at the center of his eyebrows. Suddenly he thought, could it be that he was still worrying about how to explain himself
No, no, no, it’s not like he didn’t have a chance to explain just now, that is, how to calm down his anger
Then she is really evil.
Well, okay, since she decided to direct and act in the poisoning incident, it was quite an evil act for Chunjia.
But what can be done
The empress dowager's status as a loving mother was too special, and ordinary methods could not do anything to her.
Yun Fenghuang couldn't be on guard all the time, so she could only strike first.
Saying these words in front of Chunjia's hospital bed seemed too heartless and too selfish. Ask yourself, Yun Fenghuang still loves himself the most.
So even if she knew that doing this, no matter whether she could hide it from Chunjia or not, it would still be unfair to him, she still did it without hesitation.
Maybe she could never understand the thoughts of those who endure humiliation and self-denial for their loved ones, even risking life and death. In her opinion, if she cares about the ones she loves, she should live well, and only by living can she protect them. Accompany them and take care of them; if you don't care, why pay
Anyway, let her give up her life for love, no, even if she is just living in danger, for example, if she knows about Queen Mother Yuan's murderous intention but is indifferent, she will not agree.
She can end it on her own without thinking, but she will never accept being trampled on as a piece of fish on the chopping board.
Apart from feeling sorry for Chunjia, she felt no regrets at all about this matter. Even towards Chunjia, she felt that she was somewhat justified: Who told him that he could not deal with Queen Mother Yuan, and could not dispel Queen Mother Yuan's hatred and murderous intention towards her
But at this moment, I felt apologetic towards the unconscious Emperor Yun Fenghuang. I couldn't help but brush his eyelashes and whispered: "What is your destiny? To fall in love with someone like me?"
Her marriage to Qi Jiulu had just been finalized that year. Jiang persuaded the family to train her as a legitimate son, but she still had to take classes for the legitimate daughter. Unlike the legitimate son's teachers who praised and regretted her, Xie specially taught her legitimate daughter. The teacher disliked her very much.
Yun Fenghuang still remembers that she was a woman who had been widowed for many years and had a chastity memorial erected by the government. She frowned, her pale and gloomy face was full of disapproval, and she said slowly to Jiang: "Seventeen The young lady is very smart, but maybe she is too smart and is inevitably proud. From the bottom of her heart, she does not recognize the principle of treating her husband as her heaven. If this continues, I am afraid that I will not be able to teach her anything."
Mrs. Jiang politely promised that she would discipline her daughter, but turned around and held her daughter's face in her hands, telling her very seriously that she was right: "My son is so noble at home, why should he be inferior to others when he goes to his husband's house? That teacher of yours is really out of his mind! It’s a pity that your grandmother likes her and sends people away because of her mother’s inconvenience. From now on, you can just pretend to be in front of her and know in your heart that you are the most important thing, but never Don't listen to her. You should take your husband as your top priority in everything. Haha, if your husband treats you well, that's all. If he doesn't treat you well, why should you support him?! You should find a way to take care of him. You are the one who is in charge!"
She has always remembered Jiang's teachings. From Qi Jiulu to Chunjia, she has loved and suffered pain. Now she feels uncomfortable in her heart, but she can't help but think about herself first.
Sometimes Yun Fenghuang also feels confused, whether he did something wrong
After all, compared to her efforts, whether it was Qi Jiulu's affection and persistence, or Chun Jia's indulgence and favoritism, they all exceeded her.
Back then, she left Qi Jiulu when she left, and now she is plotting against Chunjia's friendship for her own safety and future... Jiang has always been worried that she will be let down, but now it seems that she is letting others down.
But for Yun Fenghuang to choose an ordinary girl, the kind of peer who is easily impressed and willing to treat others sincerely, she felt huge fear.
If Guo followed Qi Jiulu to fly far away, all her happiness, anger, sorrow and joy in this life would be with Qi Jiulu.
Is the intensity of youth really enough to burn through the long decades of birth, old age, illness, death, joys and sorrows? Not to mention the entanglement between the two families behind this, as well as the love-hate separation between their blood relatives.
If she had not used those tricks and tricks after entering the palace, she would have been buried in the grave long ago, let alone being favored and favored by Chunjia.
... Maybe everyone has their own destiny. If she is given thousands of opportunities to choose, she will still choose the path she will take, the words she will say, the things she will do, and the people she will deeply love and let down. The accumulation of these is the trajectory of her destiny. The inevitable path.
Yun Fenghuang smiled self-deprecatingly, tapped Chunjia's pale lips, and repeated in a low voice: "What kind of fate do you have? You actually like me."
At this time, there was movement from outside. It was estimated that the imperial physician was being brought over. Yun Fenghuang stood up, straightened his skirt, and prepared to give instructions to the imperial physician who came in... She didn't notice that she had just turned around, and Chun was on the hospital bed. Jia opened her eyes silently, glanced at her back with a complex look, then closed her eyes and became "unconscious" again.
