Yao Ping's words were very instructive. Jiang Nianjiao was already suspicious of Yao Ping because of the last incident with Yunzhu.
At this time, it was natural to become a little more vigilant.
However, she didn't show it, only said with a slight reproach, "Since aunt can't sleep at night, why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Yaoping looked filled with regret when she heard this.
"It's not that the servant doesn't want to tell the girl, it's just that the empress doesn't want people to worry about her affairs, so she keeps ordering the servant not to tell her."
This does seem to be my aunt's style. Throughout her life, my aunt has always taken the people around her very seriously, but taken herself too lightly.
After she had a miscarriage and was diagnosed by the imperial doctor as having difficulty conceiving, she became even more worried.
Jiang Nianjiao sighed for her aunt in her heart, and then asked Yao Ping, "Have you told Dr. Zhang about my aunt's insomnia?"
Yao Ping nodded, "Mr. Zhang said that this matter is caused by a heart disease and requires heart medicine. So I just ordered my slave to burn some soothing incense in the queen's bedroom."
Hearing Yaoping mention the Anshen Xiang, Jiang Nianjiao couldn't help but have a second thought. But she didn't question it in front of Yao Ping.
Instead, she just followed Yao Ping's words and said with an anxious look, "It's true that my uncle has no news at all until now, and my aunt is so tired that she still has to worry about him."
Yao Ping said hurriedly, "Girl, don't say that to Master Gao. You are also responsible for me, and it's hard to refuse."
Jiang Nianjiao then asked carefully, "Is it true that there is no news at all about Bendang?"
Yao Ping shook her head, "Although your Majesty also sent people to look for it, Guan Yuanzhen is far away from the sky and the Emperor is far away. Your Majesty is afraid that it is beyond reach."
Jiang Nianjiao seemed to think for a while after hearing this, and then said seriously, "Since His Majesty is beyond his reach, how about we find someone who can reach Guanyuan Town?"
Yao Ping immediately understood, "Is the girl talking about Captain Chen?"
Jiang Nianjiao nodded.
Yao Ping was not optimistic about Jiang Nianjiao's proposal. "Although the girl's idea is good, the case of grain and grass embezzlement that Master Gao is investigating this time is likely to have a lot to do with the Chen family. After all, Captain Chen is also a member of the Chen family..."
Yao Ping seemed to be worried about Jiang Nianjiao, so she didn't finish her sentence.
But her words seemed to imply that Chen Jinghuai had something to do with this matter.
Although Chen Jinghuai was indeed closely related to his uncle's disappearance, Jiang Nianjiao subconsciously thought deeper after hearing these words from Yaoping.
Jiang Nianjiao pretended to be naive and argued, "Colonel Chen should not be such a person. What's more, the case of the seizure of grain and grass from the army has also affected the moral stability of the soldiers in Yunzhou. If Colonel Chen only cares about personal gain, how can the soldiers obey him?"
Yao Ping didn't argue with her, she just said, "What the girl said makes sense."
Seeing that Yao Ping didn't refute, Jiang Nianjiao couldn't figure out for a moment whether the words of the person in front of him were intentional or unintentional.
She could only say, "But Aunt Ping's worry is not unreasonable. I will give him a try tomorrow."
Yaoping's mood remained unchanged.
At the same time, Yuxiu Palace, which had originally driven the palace people outside, finally slowly opened the door.
Apparently the quarrel between the aunt and Zhao Nianze was over.
Jiang Nianjiao was not surprised to see Zhao Nianze protecting Su Zhirou coming out of the inner hall.
However, when Su Zhirou came out this time, she was carrying the medical kit she came with.
It seemed that he was preparing to bid farewell to Yuxiu Palace.
Zhao Nianze only escorted her out of Yuxiu Palace, and then accompanied her to Tai Hospital.
So the result of the dispute between the aunt and Zhao Nianze was that Su Zhirou was kicked out of Yuxiu Palace?
In order to confirm his suspicion, Jiang Nianjiao and Yao Ping went indoors after Zhao Nianze and the others left.
Concubine Yuxian was currently sitting on the Arhat couch, leaning on her forehead with her hands, looking sleepy and exhausted.
The aunt was originally raised in a deep palace, and she was also an unbeatable beauty. However, the various changes in recent times have obviously left traces on her body.
Yaoping took the initiative to walk over and massage Concubine Yuxian's temples.
Concubine Yu Xian opened her eyes, but when she saw Jiang Nianjiao, she just waved her hand.
"Jiaojiao, please step aside. I want to be alone for a while."
Jiang Nianjiao had no choice but to retreat after hearing this.
When only Concubine Yuxian and Yao Ping were left in the room again.
Concubine Yuxian sighed leisurely, "I have just discovered now that the choices I made back then were all wrong. It's a pity that I have no way out."
"It would have been nice if I could have kept the baby in my belly back then. Maybe I wouldn't have to be as hopeless as I am now."
Yao Ping, who was rubbing Concubine Yuxian's temples, could only comfort her softly, "Why do you think so pessimistically? You are His Majesty's caring person after all, and His Majesty also trusts you. You and the Empress have been in charge of the harem together for more than ten years, even though it is that When Concubine Zhang was at her most prosperous, she clamored for the right to be an associate, but Your Majesty didn't give it to you, didn't you? And the last time Concubine Zhang poisoned you, your Majesty, no matter how much you loved her, you still killed her directly."
"Although His Highness is having trouble with you now because of Medical Officer Su, it is just a temporary obsession. When he figures it out, he will naturally understand who is the one who truly cares for him."
After listening to Yaoping's consolation, Concubine Yuxian's lips turned into a sarcastic smile, "Is it good for him? Is this really for him? In fact, what he said is right. After all, I am not his biological mother, and all I have done is nothing. It is so that the Gao family can have a solid backing, and it is so that the Gao family can continue."
"But Yao Ping, am I at fault? My sister married into a family like the Jiang family with very strict upbringing. If I can't get sincerity, how can I dare to ask for sincerity from someone who has three palaces and six courtyards?"
"What's more, I can't even keep my children. People in the harem are like duckweeds and weeds without children. When the king's affection is cut off, they will have to fend for themselves."
"My brother is also a very upright person. He is a king and a country. He does things that offend others, but he never thinks about the descendants of the Gao family. As a younger sister, I can't help but worry a lot. Distraction.”
"I originally thought that as long as I tried my best to raise my children, I would be able to have a path with the Gao family. But who knew that after all my efforts, he and I were not of the same mind. All my efforts for so many years have been in vain. .”
…
When Jiang Nianjiao arrived at Tai Hospital, she did not go directly to Su Zhirou because of Zhao Nianze.
She only asked the maid next to her to check if Zhao Nianze had left, while she waited under an old catalpa tree outside the Imperial Hospital.
It was the end of April, and there were a few early-blooming pink and white flowers scattered on the dense catalpa leaves.
If you smell it carefully, you can feel the rich sweetness in the air.
The palace people, who had been covering themselves up all winter, also quietly changed into spring clothes made of relatively thin and bright materials.
Under the eaves of the corridor, several pretty palace servants were pestering only a handsome young man with a high nose and deep eyes, seemingly begging for something.
That boy looked a bit younger than me, but he was already a seasoned pervert.
He only coaxed the little palace ladies to leave sweet kisses on his face before he was willing to hand over the rouge box in his hands to the hands of these palace ladies.
Jiang Nianjiao was looking at it with interest, but the young man who was surrounded by young maids also quickly looked at her.
The young man looked at her and smiled.
Then the young man didn't know what he said into the ears of the palace maids. Some of the palace maids said a few words and then went to bed.
In the end, there was only one little palace lady left, who hesitated and procrastinated until the end, but handed over a hibiscus sachet that she had embroidered by herself.
The young man took the sachet from Little Gong'e's hand with a smile, and then just when Little Gong'e wasn't paying attention, he lowered his head and secretly kissed Little Gong'e's soft lips.
The little palace lady immediately ran away like a frightened little rabbit.
The young man also waved the sachet hand-embroidered by the last palace lady and came towards Jiang Nianjiao.
The young man's outline is as deep as that of a foreign Qiang person, but his brows and eyes are fused with the slenderness and refinement of the Yongdi people.
He has blond hair, green eyes, and skin as white as porcelain. The soft corners of his lips and the diamond-like brilliance in his eyes only gave him a somewhat sweet and dangerous look.
"Sister, you've been staring at me, but you also want to find me to relieve your boredom?" The young man smiled very arrogantly after approaching Jiang Nianjiao.
With this smile, the already seductive appearance revealed a seductive meaning like a peacock spreading its tail.
Jiang Nianjiao was just casually looking at it out of boredom, but she didn't expect that this young man would move forward.
However, she looks sweet and innocent, but psychologically she is not an innocent girl.
Therefore, facing the young man's seduction, Jiang Nianjiao not only showed indifference, but also mocked, "Brother, you are not my type."
"How do you know whether you like it or not if you haven't tried it before?" The young man just moved closer to Jiang Nianjiao. He placed one hand on the old catalpa tree and said softly with a smile.
This little disciple dared to tease anyone, but she couldn't tell the other person's identity at the moment.
I have no intention of playing such ambiguous tricks with this young disciple.
So after the young man finished speaking, she put one hand on the young man's chest and said coldly, "Do you still need to try with your small body that you already know at a glance?"
Unexpectedly, this little disciple was quite good at playing. Jiang Nianjiao originally wanted to push him away, but the young man grabbed her hand and pulled Jiang Nianjiao into his arms. He whispered in Jiang Nianjiao's ear, "Okay. Sister, please stop telling the truth."
Jiang Nianjiao originally thought that this young boy was weak, so she didn't take him seriously. She couldn't even move when she didn't want to be pulled into someone's arms.
She was about to scold the boy for what he was, but he quickly let her go.
Not far away, under the eaves of the corridor, I heard Su Zhirou calling in a low voice with some panic and uncertainty, "Miss Jiang?"
The young man was a head taller than Jiang Nianjiao, and Jiang Nianjiao was hidden in someone's arms. Naturally, Su Zhirou could not be seen at this time.
But just by hearing Su Zhirou's voice, she realized that she was in trouble.
She gritted her teeth and said, "Brother, if you don't let go of my sister, I'm afraid you won't be so happy in the future."
The young man seemed to have been wronged in some way and said coquettishly, "Sister is so cruel."
But having said that, he still released his grip on Jiang Nianjiao.
His green gown was able to distance himself from Jiang Nianjiao's new goose-yellow dress.
The young man did not realize that he had been caught. Instead, he explained to the people watching his performance from the corridor with an innocent look on his face, "This sister just had bugs on her clothes. I took them away for her. Don't get me wrong." .”
While he was talking, he actually held a big, plump, green caterpillar in his hand.
Looking at the insect twisting and squirming in his hand.
Jiang Nianjiao could only feel a sticky feeling that was almost suffocating.
Everything else was fine, the only thing that disgusted her the most was this worm.
I don't know when this kid hid this thing?
Thinking of him still holding her with that hand, Jiang Nianjiao felt a chill all over her body.
