Chapter 244: Vicious Female Supporting Character vs. Childless Emperor 88
Defei's hair was wet and stuck together, and she just wiped her face roughly. She stood at the door and listened. Knowing that Imperial Physician Qin did not notice anything, she felt relieved.
When Concubine Lan fell ill, she consulted many doctors but none of them could cure her. This shows that this disease is not common. People would only think that Concubine Lan had a sudden illness and would not suspect that this was a deliberate plan on their part.
Defei came into the room crying. Seeing Lanpin's swollen face, she knelt down in front of the bed and reached out to touch Lanpin's face. "Sister Lan, are you okay? I'm so worried."
Concubine Lan subconsciously avoided Concubine De's hand. She felt very uncomfortable and still had some resentment towards Concubine De.
Seeing the hurt look in Concubine De's eyes, Concubine Lan couldn't bear it after all, and explained in a low voice: "I put medicine on my face, it's dirty, sister, don't touch it. Imperial Physician Qin also doesn't allow me to scratch it, saying that it will leave scars, and the more you scratch, the bigger the rash will be, and the harder it will be to heal."
Concubine De couldn't stop crying. She had already carefully considered the dosage and she didn't expect it to be so serious.
Ji Yunhuan looked at Concubine De coldly, "Since Concubine Lan cannot be moved, she should stay in Yunhe Palace to recuperate. Someone, send Concubine De back!"
De Fei tightly grasped Lan Bin's arm and cried, "I will not leave. I will stay here to take care of Sister Lan. Sister Lan is so sick, how can I bear to leave her alone?"
Concubine Lan gasped in pain. Her body was covered with red rashes. It hurt even if she didn't touch it, and it hurt even more when she touched it.
The thick water inside seems to flow out, and then more red rashes will appear, recurring and difficult to subside.
De Fei let go of her hand and cried even louder, "Please, Queen, have mercy on me. Lan Fei and I are like sisters. Please let me stay in Yunhe Palace."
Ji Yunhuan sighed and asked Lanpin's opinion, "Where is Lanpin? Do you want her to stay?"
De Fei looked at Lan Bin pleadingly. Lan Bin closed her eyes slightly and sighed softly, "I am really scared to be alone, so let Sister De Fei accompany me."
Ji Yunhuan yawned. After being busy for so long, she was tired.
Defei thought that if she stayed in Yunhe Palace she would have a chance to get close to Long Lin, but in fact, Long Lin would not pay any attention to Defei at all.
No matter how cautious a woman is, she cannot be as chaste as a man.
Although she is domineering, she still has some trust in Long Lin.
"Then let's stay together. I'm tired. No matter if you have something to do or not, don't disturb me!"
Ji Yunhuan finally took a hot bath. She stretched comfortably and was about to lie down when she heard the sound of orderly footsteps, the tinkling of bells, and even the sound of stringed instruments outside.
Concubine De in the side hall poked her head out and said excitedly, "It must be His Majesty coming. Sister Lan, wait a minute. I will invite His Majesty to come and see you."
Concubine Lan coughed twice, and her throat felt burning with pain. She thought that the emperor would not come, but Concubine De was already insane and would not turn back until she hit the wall, so she simply stopped trying to persuade him.
Eunuch Wei and his entourage stopped at the entrance of the main hall. Eight eunuchs were carrying a dragon sedan chair that was decorated with flowers and hung with jade ornaments and bells. It made noises wherever it went and was very high-profile.
Behind Long Lin followed a group of eunuchs holding lanterns and playing music, making a huge noise.
Eunuch Wei smiled, cleared his throat, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, His Majesty has arrived at the Lama Temple, and has specially ordered me to pick you up to accompany him. The dragon sedan has been prepared and is decorated according to your preferences. Your Majesty... Your Majesty, did you hear me? I am here to pick you up to accompany you..."
Ji Yunhuan lay on the bed and covered her ears with a soft pillow, but Eunuch Wei's voice was so penetrating that she could not block it at all.
"So annoying! He's using this trick again! Do you believe that I will really disobey his order? I won't go. Taohong, go tell Eunuch Wei that I have already gone to bed, and ask His Majesty to go to bed early and not wait for me."
Taohong covered her mouth and laughed secretly. The room was brightly lit, and it didn't look like anyone was asleep at all. The Empress's lies couldn't have been any better.
But she still went out to pass on the message. After a while, Taohong came back and said with a forced smile, "Eunuch Wei said that it's okay for the queen to sleep. It's warm in the dragon sedan. We can carry the queen in and let her sleep all the way to the Lama Temple."
Ji Yunhuan sat up angrily and shouted, "Can't he come to Yunhe Palace by himself? He only knows how to bother me. I just went to bed, let him come by himself!"
Eunuch Wei was no longer surprised by this. The Queen was young and always liked to throw tantrums, but His Majesty liked it. He coaxed, pampered and indulged her, which made the Queen even more spoiled.
However, the Queen Mother had a good temper and never made things difficult for these servants. Instead, she was very generous to them.
Wei Kun glanced at Concubine De who was approaching. People’s circumstances are different. Concubine De has been in the palace for so many years but she could not please His Majesty.
On the contrary, the Empress was favored as soon as she entered the palace. His Majesty begged and coaxed her for favor, but the Empress was still not happy.
Wei Kun ignored Concubine De beside him, and bowed towards the main hall door again, saying loudly: "Your Majesty, please calm down! His Majesty wanted to come to see you in person, but when he heard that you had guests here, His Majesty thought they were disturbing your peace, so he ordered the servant to take you over."
Defei's face turned pale and blue.
A slave is a slave, flattering the superior and looking down on the inferior, looking down on others! Wei Kun used to be so respectful to her, but now he doesn't even bow to her when he sees her.
She didn't believe that His Majesty would be so heartless to her and not even willing to look at her.
It must be the Empress who is interfering. That's why Your Majesty refuses to see her.
Ji Yunhuan was so annoyed by Wei Kun's loud voice that she had no choice but to get up and go out.
She had been making a fuss all night and her resentment was deeper than a ghost. She urgently needed to vent it, otherwise she would really be suffocated. It just so happened that the stupid Concubine De happened to catch her when she was angry.
Defei knelt down again, with a dull face and drooping mouth. She put on her airs and began to "speak frankly and give advice" again.
"I know Your Majesty doesn't like to hear this, but I still want to say it. Honest words are unpleasant to the ear. Your Majesty should also change her temper."
"The queen should be dignified and virtuous, recruit concubines for your majesty, and multiply royal offspring. However, the queen has been suppressing the concubines and not allowing them to meet your majesty. The queen pesters your majesty every day, is arrogant and jealous. Isn't she going to corrupt all the women in the world?"
"Princess Lan is critically ill, but the Queen still stopped His Majesty from visiting her. Such a vicious heart is really chilling..."
With a snapping sound, Ji Yunhuan shook her wrist. She used all her strength in this slap and it felt so good!
Taohong touched the young lady's hand and said distressedly: "It's already red, why bother doing it yourself, just let this servant do it."
The slap knocked Concubine De to the ground, half of her face swollen and blood oozing from the corners of her mouth.
She knelt straight and said indignantly, "Your Majesty hit me, which means you are guilty. You can stop me, but can you stop the world from talking? His Majesty will see your true colors sooner or later. The more carefree you are now, the more miserable you will be in the future!"
Ji Yunhuan couldn't help laughing out loud, "De Fei, have you ever thought that it's not me who is stopping His Majesty from seeing you, but His Majesty simply doesn't want to see you! And I have never pestered His Majesty, it's His Majesty who pestered me."
