West Palace, this is a palace that is neither dilapidated nor luxurious, but is too remote and deserted.
At the same time, it was not far from Kangshou Palace. The Queen Mother could obviously arrange for An Xiyue and Nangong Yuanyi to live in the side hall of Kangshou Palace.
In the end, I didn't expect them to be brought here.
Nangong Yuanyi knew that the Queen Mother wanted to torture him, so she reluctantly gave him a bed and quilt for Yue'er's sake. In this way, he was taking advantage of his wife.
Isn’t this how the princes and princesses who are not favored in the palace are treated like this?
"It's too late today. The Crown Prince and Crown Princess will rest at Haitang Palace first." The palace maid ordered people to put the oil lamps and beddings separately.
An Xiyue knew that this Haitang Palace had a concubine hanged in the palace, so no one lived in it for a long time. It was also said that it was often haunted. What was the Queen Mother trying to do?
Seeing that the palace maid had a kind face, An Xiyue asked, "What's your name?"
"My name is Lotus." The palace maid replied.
"Lianhua, can you bring us some charcoal fire? I'm afraid that the cold weather will catch the wind and I won't be able to serve the Queen Mother tomorrow."
The palace maid actually didn't dare to offend the prince and the prince's concubine, but Aunt Gui ordered them to just bring them here.
The palace maid was confused, "I can't be the master even if I'm a servant. It's what Aunt Gui ordered..."
Immediately, the palace maid took out a fire certificate and handed it to An Xiyue, and whispered: "People lived in Haitang Palace before, but the people who lived there often didn't live long. My servant has checked it and there are some charcoal fires in the corner. I hope it can help the prince." Concubine."
The palace maid glanced at the nun who was guarding outside, and quickly took out the medicine bottle in her arms, "This is what the eldest princess ordered the slave to give to the prince and the prince's concubine. Be sure to hide it."
An Xiyue took it clearly: "Thank you, eldest princess, for us."
After the palace maid finished speaking, she turned around and was about to leave. An Xiyue quickly took out the silver she had on her body and handed it to her, and then said, "Can you give us a pot of strong wine?"
The palace maid ran out without taking An Xiyue's money. After a while, she actually brought a jug of wine over and said, "I'll leave first. Everything is ready outside. The prince and the prince concubine, please rest."
"Thank you." An Xiyue said.
After the palace maid leaves.
An Xiyue asked Nangong Yuanyi: "It seems that someone is more thoughtful than us."
Nangong Yuanyi then pushed her to sit on the bed, which was also covered with quilts.
While rolling up her trouser legs, he said: "If the Queen Mother wants to embarrass me, the Emperor and Prince Yu will still protect me. They can't disobey the Queen Mother on the surface, but can't they make some small moves secretly?"
An Xiyue looked at him and said distressedly: "King Yu and the Emperor still treat you sincerely. It's just that the Queen Mother is so difficult. I'm afraid she won't let you go. The palace is no better than the outside. You can do whatever you want."
"The royal family pays more attention to etiquette and filial piety than the common people, and it sets an example for the world. The Queen Mother uses this as an example. Even if the emperor and King Yu are here, this kind of thing will still happen often today. Otherwise, you will pretend to be sick tomorrow and get infected. Because of the cold weather, it is inconvenient to serve the Queen Mother."
An Xiyue added: "Thanks to Doctor Shen's help today, otherwise we wouldn't even have shelter from the wind."
Doctor Shen knew that An Xiyue was good at making medicinal meals and deliberately reminded her loudly, so she guessed that the Queen Mother was pretending to be ill.
Nangong Yuanyi looked slightly stunned. If not for the fact that the Queen Mother was the biological mother of King Yu and the Emperor, and for the legacy left by the late emperor, he would not have been restrained by the Queen Mother. He only said: "Fortunately, those fragments were not cut into the flesh. There's just some redness and swelling, just apply some medicine and it'll be fine."
"I'm not stupid, Nuo, look at this cloak." An Xiyue pulled the fluffy cloak over to show him.
Then she stood up again, waved her arms, put her hands in front of her forehead, and knelt down respectfully. Sure enough, her knees happened to be kneeling on the fur.
