Chapter 280: Those who are sick, cure their illness
Ran Xiaoyu frowned slightly and wanted to say something, but when the words came to her lips, she didn't say them.
Nan Yan glanced at Du Siyao, who was about to collapse on the ground, stepped forward, and said softly, "Your Majesty, Concubine Du came to the palace to visit me because she knew I was ill."
“…”
"That's all."
Everyone was stunned.
Everyone could tell from the words just now that Du Siyao was bullying her, and they all thought that she was taking the opportunity to complain.
But she didn't!
Xu Miaoyin looked at her and said, "Is that really the case?"
Nan Yan said softly, "This servant dares not deceive the Emperor and the Empress."
Xu Miaoyin looked at them quietly. After a long while, she nodded gently and said, "Okay, very good."
After she finished speaking, she turned to look at Zhu Feng: "Your Majesty, look—"
Zhu Feng's face was sullen, and his eyes were sharp as he looked at Nan Yan's thin, pointed chin. However, his eyes showed no emotion. After a long while, he said, "Since there is no contagious disease, this matter is only a matter of the harem. Queen, you can handle it."
After saying that, he stood up and walked out.
Nan Yan hurriedly stepped back to make way for him, and the people around her also bowed their heads to see him off.
But just as Zhu Feng walked past her, he suddenly stopped and said, "Just one thing."
Xu Miaoyin raised her head: "Your Majesty, please give your orders."
"Those who are sick, get well."
“…”
"Don't really start an epidemic."
Xu Miaoyin glanced at Si Nanyan again and said hurriedly, "I understand."
Zhu Feng walked out without looking back.
Nan Yan's eyes seemed to be pulled by an invisible silk thread. She carefully watched the corner of his clothes sway slightly and disappear at the door.
At this time, Xu Miaoyin said: "Du Jieyu."
Du Siyao's face was pale and she knelt there not daring to speak.
Xu Miaoyin said, "As a concubine in the harem, you should have acted with caution, but you were so careless that you lied about the epidemic and almost caused chaos. Do you admit your guilt?"
Du Siyao said in a trembling voice: "I...know my crime..."
"Alright, I will punish you by confining you to Jianfu Palace for three months."
"Thank you, Queen."
This punishment was quite severe. Everyone looked at Du Siyao and thought of her arrogant behavior these days. Especially Xia Yunting, who was standing behind the crowd and had suffered a loss, they couldn't help but sneer in their hearts.
Xu Miaoyin added, "Concubine Kang."
Wu Wan didn't expect her to call her so suddenly, and hurried forward: "I'm here."
Xu Miaoyin looked at her and said seriously, "I accompanied the emperor to the Grand Altar to offer sacrifices. The harem respects you as the most respected, and I also asked you to take good care of it. But something like this happened. You are to blame."
“…”
"I'll just fine you one month's salary as a small punishment."
Wu Wan gritted her teeth, but could only endure it and said, "I know I was wrong."
Xu Miaoyin then said to the imperial physician, "Doctor Chen, remember to see the female official every day. The emperor has instructed not to cause any epidemic."
The imperial doctor said: "Follow the order."
Xu Miaoyin then stood up, and everyone knelt hurriedly. She walked in front of Si Nanyan, looked down at her for a while, and then said, "Lady Si, you—have been wronged."
Her tone rose slightly when she said this, which made Nan Yan's heart tremble.
She hurriedly said, "I dare not."
Xu Miaoyin smiled again, then turned and left the Ye Ting.
The other concubines also stood up. After looking at Si Nanyan with different emotions, they all left.
As soon as they left, Ran Xiaoyu immediately grabbed Nan Yan and asked, "What are you doing?"
