Chapter 61 The Queen Mother's Illness is Very Strange
He stopped what he was doing and looked at her, and couldn't help but exclaimed: "This pair of sapphire earrings is very nice."
The concubine had fair skin to begin with, and it looked even whiter and more translucent against the sapphire.
Shangguan Sui, who had been fighting with the chicken legs, also raised his head when he heard this.
There was light in her big, twinkling eyes. "Mom is so beautiful! She is especially beautiful today!"
[It's really beautiful! My dad is drooling over it! ]
Shangguan Lin: ...
That's an exaggeration.
But it is indeed very beautiful.
He went back to look for any sapphires in the storehouse and gave them all to Concubine Chen as jewelry.
Upon hearing this, Concubine Chen couldn't help but chuckle.
She explained, "This pair of earrings was sent to me by Princess Changning today. I liked them and put them on right away."
Princess Changning, also known as Song.
When Shangguan Sui heard this, he immediately rolled up his sleeves, revealing his chubby little wrists.
Show them your yellow tourmaline bracelet.
The tourmaline is crystal clear and looks particularly beautiful when worn on a fair wrist.
"This was also given to me by Princess Changning, who said it was a thank-you gift."
Shangguan Lin's brows twitched slightly when he heard this.
When Song was first named a princess, one reason was to make Sui Sui happy, and the other was to allow Xiao Ziyuan to stay in the Shangshufang and under his supervision.
I didn't expect that she was so grateful.
It was worth it that I helped her so much back then.
Speaking of the Song family, he remembered another thing.
Shangguan Lin raised her eyes, her tone very happy.
"We received an urgent report today that our army is making great progress along the border, defeating the Yuan army step by step. They have agreed to surrender to our Great Yue from now on. In another half a month, our army will return to the capital."
Shangguan Sui's eyes lit up.
【My uncle will be back soon! 】
[Yeah! Yeah! ]
The concubine was also very happy.
Great! Changqing is coming back.
The next day, Fengyi Palace.
Xinlan held the pastry in her hand, her fingertips trembling slightly, and she couldn't help feeling uneasy.
She is the Empress's confidante, so of course she knows what is inside the Ruyi cake.
But the Queen Mother's illness became more and more serious.
She was really starting to get scared.
After all, she was the Queen Mother, not Wen Niang who had no background and could be killed at will.
Xinlan raised her eyes and looked at the graceful and elegant Empress in front of her.
He asked with a trembling voice: "My Queen, are we really going to continue..."
The queen glanced at her, then took a sip of the tea in her hand.
"Why not continue? It has come to this. The Queen Mother must die."
"I only have the eldest prince as my child, and he must ascend the throne!"
Xinlan was puzzled, "Then why do we have to kill the Queen Mother?"
The queen sneered, "Half a month ago, you were also in Lingshan. Didn't you see it? The queen mother doted on the third prince so much that she was even willing to cook soup for him herself."
"How has the Queen Mother ever treated the eldest prince like this? The Emperor is also very filial. If the Queen Mother really said something to the Emperor, he might not remain unmoved."
"And you know that the Queen Mother has never liked me. Even if I put aside everything in the palace and went to Lingshan to worship Buddha with her, she still didn't like me."
"Keeping the Queen Mother here will always be a big problem. The eldest prince's path to the throne cannot tolerate any accidents!"
"The Queen Mother has lived to this age, and she has lived enough."
The queen finished her cup of tea and let out a long sigh.
"The Queen Mother was old, and it was normal for her to fall ill and die accidentally. The Emperor would definitely not suspect anything."
"Go and deliver the Ruyi Cake quickly, don't delay."
Xinlan nodded and went to do her job respectfully.
Bihua Palace.
"Sister Feng! You're here!"
When Shangguan Sui saw the person coming, he immediately took Feng Xici's hand affectionately.
Feng Xici smiled softly, her eyes very gentle.
"Greetings to the princess."
Shangguan Sui turned and looked at Concubine Chen.
"Mother, I have to accompany Sister Feng to see the Queen Mother today. Please ask for leave for me in the Shangshufang~"
[I really can’t help it~ Actually, I really want to go to school~ Hehe]
Princess Chen: ...
I don't see any intention of going to school.
But treating the Queen Mother was a serious matter, so she certainly wouldn't stop it.
The Concubine Chen immediately ordered a sedan chair to take Shangguan Sui and Feng Xici to Shoukang Palace.
The two arrived soon.
Feng Xici looked at the tall and exquisite building in front of her, and couldn't help but tighten her fingers holding the handkerchief.
Shangguan Sui smiled at her, revealing a small pear-shaped fold on his cheek.
"Don't worry, Sister Feng. The Empress Dowager is a very kind person."
Feng Xici nodded vigorously.
She absolutely trusts the Fifth Princess!
If the fifth princess says it is good, then it must be good.
When Nanny Sun saw Shangguan Sui, she immediately bowed to him.
"Greetings to the Fifth Princess."
Then he took the two of them into the hall.
Shangguan Sui saw the familiar figure at a glance.
"Third brother! Why are you here too?"
Shangguan Huai heard the voice, turned around and smiled.
"I have nothing to do today, so I came to the palace to accompany the Queen Mother."
Shangguan Sui brought Feng Xici to the bedside and bowed to the empress dowager.
The Queen Mother was very happy to see Shangguan Sui.
Then he looked at Feng Xici beside him with some confusion.
Upon seeing this, Feng Xici bowed and explained.
"I am the daughter of Minister Feng, Feng Xici."
Shangguan Sui also said immediately: "I brought Sister Feng here specially to see you, Grandma!"
The Queen Mother was curious and frowned, "Treat me?"
Shangguan Sui nodded.
"Yes, don't underestimate Sister Feng because she is young. She cured my throat, and also cured my elder brother and Princess Changning's illnesses."
After her introduction, even Shangguan Huai turned to look at Feng Xici.
Shangguan Sui snorted softly upon seeing this.
[Don't look at Third Brother, this is your sister-in-law, there's no way you can do that~]
Shangguan Huai: ...
He just had never seen a woman being a doctor.
Suishun's little brain is too jumpy.
But he didn't know when his brother had a lover.
The Queen Mother naturally did not miss this voice.
Sister-in-law of eight years old?
Isn’t that Juer’s sweetheart?
The Queen Mother looked much more energetic and her eyes fell on Feng Xici.
"Since Suishun has said so, then you can show it to me."
Feng Xici nodded and stepped forward to take the empress dowager's pulse.
After a short examination, Feng Xici's brows became more and more furrowed.
Shangguan Sui had a feeling that something was wrong and looked at Feng Xici nervously.
"How is it, Sister Feng?"
Feng Xici withdrew his hand, his voice filled with some doubt.
"The Queen Mother's illness is very strange..."
"In the past, when people got sick, they usually only had one or two symptoms, but the Queen Mother had so many symptoms that it was hard to find the cause."
Shangguan Sui's face was full of tension, and she asked anxiously, "Ah? Can it still be cured?"
