It dawned early in summer, and Songzhi helped Nian Shilan slowly walk to Xingfuyuan, with Xiao Linzi following behind Nian Shilan.
After leaving Cheng'en Garden, Xiao Linzi looked around and saw that there were only a few eunuchs working on the path. They were far away. Apart from him and Songzhi, there was no one else around Nian Shilan.
Xiao Linzi took two steps closer and whispered beside Nian Shilan.
"Master, last night I paid attention according to your instructions. While you were sleeping, Cold Dew walked to the southeast corner of the yard. There was a dove there. The dove was dark and hidden in the dark. I could not see it until now. When Han Lu came closer, the thing jumped out two steps before I saw it."
Nian Shilan stopped and looked sideways at Xiao Linzi.
"Pigeon?"
"Master, it's a black pigeon. The slave has a good eye. There is something on the pigeon's foot. Han Lu took the thing off its foot and slipped back. The slave sent the little eunuch on duty in advance , He just said that the slave couldn't sleep and guarded for him, which gave Han Lu a chance to sneak in and out."
Xiao Linzi said.
Nian Shilan turned around and continued to walk forward slowly. When he met two young eunuchs carrying water, they knelt down on the roadside when they saw Nian Shilan in the distance. They waited for Nian Shilan to pass by before getting up and walking away with the buckets. .
"Did you alert her?"
Nian Shilan asked Xiao Linzi.
"Master, of course there is no such thing. The slave is small, huddled in the other corner, and is in the shadows, so she can't see the slave."
Xiao Linzi still looked around while talking.
Nian Shilan looked at him and felt funny. said.
"Okay, look at it openly and don't look like a thief. Just don't alert her, otherwise I'm afraid she might do something if she gets anxious."
In Xingfu Courtyard, Nian Shilan arrived not too early, but not too late either.
It wasn't too early because Hu, Shu and Feng had already arrived. It's not too late, because Duan hasn't come yet.
Ulanara didn't come out either.
Nian Shilan walked to the seat below Uranala and sat down. The other three people saluted her and said hello.
Nian Shilan glanced at it and spoke calmly.
"No need. Sisters, please get up."
The three of them got up and just sat on the chairs when Ulanara arrived.
After everyone had said their greetings and sat down again, Nian Shilan said casually.
"Why don't you see Duan today? Even if you live with Fujin, you should follow the rules."
Ulanara looked at everyone and then said.
"Ms. Duan got up early today and sent someone to ask for leave, saying she had not been feeling well for the past two days. So I asked her to rest. Pregnant people are always more tired."
Nian Shilan smiled, casually grabbed the handkerchief in his hand and said.
"I don't know what's wrong with Sister Duan. Have you asked the doctor to take a look? I'll say hello in a while, and I'll go check on Sister Duan and see if she needs my care, so that Fujin won't be tired by himself."
Before Ulanara could speak, Hu suddenly spoke.
"I think Sister Duan will feel tired in the early stages of pregnancy. I heard that pregnant people need to rest and it is not suitable to visit. It's better for Fujin to go another day and take the concubines with him. Today, why don't you let Master Fujin Send someone to take care of you."
Ulanara looked at Hu with a smile and nodded, deeply convinced.
"Ms. Hu is right. Since Duan is not feeling well, I will ask the imperial doctor to check her pulse and sedate her fetus. Sister Nian, why don't you wait two days before going to see her? I will also tell you what you think." Duan’s.”
Nian Shilan smiled and looked at Hu.
"Oh? If I remember correctly, my sister hasn't been sleeping with me recently, right? Listening to my sister's words, it's as if she had given birth. It makes people almost ignore that."
It has to be said that Nian Shilan is able to poke people's hearts.
Even the servants in the palace knew that Mrs. Hu had served as a bed attendant five or six years ago. If not for Fujin's generous protection, such an unfavored semi-slave would have been bullied to death by other servants.
Hu Gege blushed and stopped talking.
Shugege and Feng had always been at peace, so naturally it was impossible for them to talk.
The atmosphere in the hall froze for a moment.
Although Ulanara's face was still smiling, his tone was somewhat reproachful.
"Sister Nian is too serious. Whoever serves the master more and who serves the master less, we are all sisters. Why should we be so aggressive? Since my sister entered the house, the master has been the most in my sister's room. Normally, my sister has inherited They also have the most rain and dew. If we all care about each other so seriously, wouldn't we lose the harmony between sisters?"
Nian Shilan rolled her eyes in her heart, her face still looking careless.
"Fu Jin is really good at joking. When did I care about you? I was just joking with Mrs. Hu for a few words."
With that said, Nian Shilan stood up.
"It's getting late. I'll take a look at Mrs. Duan and then leave."
After saying that, regardless of Ulanara's objections, he quickly walked out of the hall and headed towards the left wing where Duan lived.
Songzhi hurriedly followed her master, while Xiao Linzi waited at the entrance of Xingfuyuan.
Nian Shilan came to the house where Duan lived and saw that the door was closed. She was about to let Songzhi push the door open when the door opened from the inside.
Jiang Fuhai walked out of the door and saluted.
"I have seen the blessing of the side, and the blessing of the side is auspicious."
Nian Shilan looked at him and said.
"Why are you here? Where are the slaves serving the Duan family?"
Jiang Fuhai replied respectfully.
"Reporting to Fu Jin, he got up early and said that Miss Duan was not feeling well, so he asked the servant to watch him stew the anti-fetal medicine. I just served Miss Duan to drink it."
Nian Shilan stared into Jiang Fuhai's eyes and smiled.
"Since you've finished serving Duan's medicine, let's get out of the way. I'll go in and see Miss Duan."
Jiang Fuhai opened his mouth to speak, but Ulanara came with Hu, Shu and Feng.
"Jiang Fuhai, step aside and let Xi Fujin go in to take a look at Miss Duan."
After Jiang Fuhai heard what Ulanara said, he stepped aside and made a gesture.
"Please take Fujin into the house."
When Nian Shilan entered the inner room, Mrs. Duan had heard the movement at the door and was standing beside the bed.
Duan wanted to greet Nian Shilan, but Nian Shilan raised her hand to stop her.
"No need. Sister Duan is feeling unwell. Just lie down. I just came over to take a look and disturb my sister's rest."
"I would like to thank Fu Jin. I felt a little dizzy when I woke up in the morning, so I reported it to Master Fuji. Fortunately, Master Fujin was kind and spared me from saying hello."
Duan spoke in a soft tone, sounding tired.
Nian Shilan took a closer look at her face, but couldn't tell anything except that it was slightly sallow.
"Sister, I've seen the Duan family. Is it possible that I can still lie to you?"
Uranala smiled and said from behind Nian Shilan.
Nian Shilan turned around and smiled at Uranala.
"Fu Jin was joking, but I don't dare to think so. Sister Duan is not feeling well, so I won't bother you for now."
Nian Shilan was about to leave after saying that, but saw a brocade purse placed beside Duan's pillow.
She walked over, picked up her purse and looked through it in her hands.
"What a delicate purse. The hibiscus embroidered on it looks real. Is it Sister Duan's craftsmanship?"
There was no expression on Ulanara's face as he continued.
"This is the purse that Mrs. Shu gave to Mrs. Duan. It contains some soothing flowers and plants. My sister doesn't know that although this pregnant woman is sleepy, she often has trouble sleeping. With this purse for her pillow, Mrs. Duan His complexion looks much better than the past few days.”
Nian Shilan took the purse and turned it over twice in his hand, looked at Shu and said.
"Shu Gege's work is really good. Can you give me a purse someday?"
Shu took a step forward and was blessed.
"Thanks to Chou Fujin for being impressed by my craftsmanship, I will make one and present it to Chou Fujin. I just don't know what kind of spices Chou Fujin likes. I wish I could put it in as well."
Nian Shilan smiled and put the purse back next to Duan's pillow.
"It doesn't matter what the spices are, just don't fall into the cliché."
After saying that, he blessed Ulanara's body, bowed, and returned to her Cheng'en Garden.
