"Your Majesty, it's time for dinner." Wan Dequan looked at the sky outside the palace through the window and warned.
Xiao Chengyan raised his eyes and looked outside. Sure enough, the palace people were already busy lighting the lights in the inner hall.
Xiao Chengyan pinched the center of his eyebrows, closed his eyes to relieve the fatigue in his eyes, and asked: "Wan Dequan, what has the imperial concubine been busy with recently?"
Wan Dequan said in deep thought: "Replying to the emperor, the matter about the queen's palace has been known to the noble concubine, and now he is working with the empress Shu to investigate."
"Concubine Shu?"
The Liu family is considered to be the one who cares about the overall situation, and Concubine Liu Shu has never been involved in those chaotic things in the years since she followed him. Xiao Chengyan thought that maybe he should be soft-hearted and do good things one time at a time, so that that person would no longer be alone in guarding the Great Northern Territory.
However, Xiao Chengyan then thought that it was a troubled time in the court, so he would tell the person tomorrow that it would be better to wait a little longer. After all, he had survived three to five years, and it would be the end of this year.
"Send the order and say that there is no need to send people to keep an eye on the queen." Xiao Chengyan probably never expected that marrying the daughter of the Chen family as his wife was originally a temporary measure. Although he felt guilty towards the virtuous concubine, this harem The master cannot let the daughter of the Lin family sit on it.
The daughter of the Chen family had been in the palace for more than a month and was not favored. They had to find another way and sent another daughter to the palace again.
He really didn't expect to get General Chen's daughter. Thinking of Ningxi, Xiao Chengyan didn't even notice that his whole aura softened, but in the end he got a big deal.
But Wan Dequan couldn't help but keep silent, this? The emperor is too trusting in the imperial concubine! He wanted to remind him loudly, but then he thought about General Chen and gave up.
"Then is the emperor going to Yongfu Palace today?"
Xiao Chengyan put aside the stroke in his hand, paused, and said, "Let's rest in Qingxin Hall tonight."
——Zhongtang Palace——
After Liu Yingxue returned to the palace, she sat down for a while. She didn't know why she always felt something was strange, but she couldn't think of what the problem was.
She felt quite uneasy, as if there were some things she had experienced before.
However, no matter how much I thought about it, I didn't have a clue, so I simply closed my eyes and fell asleep.
Dangui brought a cup of soothing tea and said, "Master, it's time for you to rest."
Hearing Dangui's voice, "Is it late at night?" Liu Yingxue didn't expect that she had been sitting here for so long after dinner.
Liu Yingxue stood up and stretched her waist. Indeed, her waist was a bit stiff after sitting for a long time.
Dangui helped her master to the bed, "Master, I'll give you a squeeze to ease the fatigue."
Liu Yingxue immediately turned over, pressed her face against the pillow and said in a low voice: "Excellent, excellent."
While massaging her mistress, Dangui watched to see if she fell asleep. For a while, Dangui listened to her mistress's steady breathing, tried to help her adjust her sleeping position, and walked out of the inner hall slowly.
After Dangui ordered the night watchman on duty today to watch over his master carefully, he went to rest in the wing's residence.
Unexpectedly, at half past midnight, Dangui was invited to the inner hall by his maid.
Liu Yingxue's forehead was covered with sweat. When she saw Dangui rushing over, she waved away the other servants and said, "I haven't thought about Sister Liu for a long time."
After Dangui wiped the sweat off her master's forehead, she asked doubtfully, "Empress Liu?"
The master has indeed not mentioned her for a long time.
I remember that when the master and Empress Liu entered the palace together, they were concubines and sisters. Even after the emperor ascended the throne, the two of them lived in Zhongtang Palace separately, on the east and west sides.
"I don't know why I dreamed about Sister Liu tonight, is it possible?"
Liu Yingxue didn't know why the magic stick in the Queen's Palace appeared in her mind.
"Master, don't catch cold." Dangui stuffed his master with a quilt.
"Dangui, the queen may be in big trouble this time."
Dangui couldn't help but wonder, "Why did the master say this? The queen just brought a few magicians into the palace, and the ladies and masters in each palace only knew about it."
"When I was at the imperial concubine's house yesterday, I had a vague feeling that something was not right. I didn't think about it when I went to sleep at night. I actually dreamed about Sister Liu."
Dangui frowned slightly after listening to her master's words, and said with relief: "Master, the Yuan Festival is approaching, could it be that Lady Liu is in a pinch over there~"
Liu Yingxue shook her head, "What nonsense are you talking about in the middle of the night? That's not the case. I always feel that there is something wrong with the master next to the Queen, and for some reason, some things feel like they have been experienced before!"
experienced? The one from Chenqi Palace? Dangui secretly suppressed her thoughts, "Master, please drink this cup of soothing tea. I will guard you here."
"It's really cold this night. Dangui, please come up quickly. If you have a headache and a fever, your master, I can't live without you!" After that, Liu Yingxue moved inside and pulled off her quilt.
Dangui lay beside her master, thinking that she could let him sleep peacefully. However, the master and servant were both sleepless all night. I don't know whether it was because of their recent fatigue, or because of Liu Yingxue's words yesterday.
In the early morning, Liu Yingxue was woken up by the heat of the person on her side. She opened her eyes and looked at the red face of Dangui beside her. She was frightened and knew that she was confused. Liu Yingxue was very anxious and said: "Here comes someone!"
"Hurry and ask for the imperial doctor."
In a hurry, Dangui was fed a bowl of extremely bitter soup. After drinking it, his face became even paler.
In fact, Dangui felt that she did not need the decoction, but seeing her master's worried look and thinking of her previous words to persuade him to take medicine, she let the decoction go into her stomach.
"Here, this candied fruit was sent by the imperial concubine. It has the best sour, sweet and medicinal taste."
Dangui leaned on the bed and was fed one. Looking at the candied fruit that had more than half disappeared on the plate, okay~ the master didn't forget to be greedy even though he was worried about her.
"I've already taken the medicine. Dangui, please lie down and rest more."
Liu Yingxue spoke and glanced at the table. After speaking, she took the plate and went to the outer hall.
Dangui was lying on her master's bed, staring straight at Liusu. Could it be that her master asked the imperial concubine for these candied fruits in her name?
If we don't say that Dangui understands his master completely, the friendship from childhood to adulthood is really unparalleled.
——Yongfu Palace——
Ningxi twitched her lips. She knew Dangui well, so it seemed that someone else was blatantly asking for snacks.
"Forsythia, go to the kitchen to see how many fruits there are, and use them to sweeten Miss Dangui's mouth."
Forsythia lowered her lips and replied, then took the little palace maid to the small kitchen. She came out again with a three-story food box in her hand. She carried it with both hands and handed it to the palace attendant waiting outside, saying: "Carry it carefully." I'm a little heavy, please give my regards to Sister Dangui."
