Chapter 441 Cool Palace Maid
After Fu Zhaoning and Xiao Lanyuan left, she also asked about this matter.
"It's her business what she wants."
Xiao Lanyuan said that he didn't care too much whether the Queen Mother's attitude towards him had changed.
"I always feel that she is sincere now. I guess the Queen Mother did that on purpose before, as if she was on the same page with the Emperor and Empress. This would also make you appear more isolated and helpless, so that the Emperor would not be too wary of you and would not reject you when you were little."
Fu Zhaoning felt that this might be true.
After all, the Queen Mother was a woman who had worked hard to climb up the harem for most of her life. There should not be a simple woman here.
Xiao Lanyuan had so many things in his hands when he was young, and he was weak and sickly. If there was no one protecting him in secret, it would be unlikely that he would have survived until now.
By the time he grew up and became smart enough to plan, that was later.
What about when he was little?
Xiao Lanyuan didn't say anything.
Fu Zhaoning glanced at him and said, "The Queen Mother has a headache. I just looked at her and her eyes and eyelids were a little gray. I preliminarily judged that she has some palpitations."
Seeing that he didn't answer but was obviously listening, she continued, "Before we leave the palace tomorrow, I'll find another time to check her pulse and prescribe a prescription for her then."
"Aren't you afraid that after she gets better, she will still worry about the consummation of our marriage?" Xiao Lanyuan spoke.
Fu Zhaoning: “…”
When they arrived at the bedroom assigned to them, Fu Zhaoning first went to take a bath and change clothes.
When he came back, he saw the candlelight in the room was dim. Two palace maids, dressed very coolly, were kneeling on the ground shivering. Xiao Lanyuan was sitting on the edge of the bed with his clothes half open.
She raised an eyebrow, somewhat puzzled.
"What's going on?"
"Why did you take so long?"
Xiao Lanyuan looked at her, looking a little aggrieved.
Fu Zhaoning touched the tip of her nose. She had indeed bathed for a long time, because she, an uninformed person, felt quite comfortable in the bathing pool of the imperial palace. There were also some things that relaxed the muscles and tendons, so she studied them out of curiosity.
This journey took an hour.
It was almost midnight when she came back. She thought Xiao Lanyuan had gone to bed first, but she never expected that there would be such a situation in the room.
"I thought you were asleep."
She looked at the two palace maids.
This is such a cool outfit!
The dress they were wearing was just a thin layer of gauze, and you could barely see what was underneath. And they were both barefoot, without any shoes or socks.
Is this an imitation of those Nanci dancers from that night?
Fu Zhaoning walked towards them. Xiao Lanyuan couldn't help but say, "Don't get close. They smell something."
But Fu Zhaoning didn't listen to him. He walked closer, lifted up the palace maid's hair, and sniffed it.
The maid trembled even more.
Xiao Lanyuan's face darkened when he saw Fu Zhaoning's actions.
What's this for? Why are you acting so frivolous?
"It does have some smell, and it feels like something good." Fu Zhaoning smiled, then took two steps back.
"What's wrong with them?"
"My Lord, Princess, everything outside has been cleaned up!"
The voice of a secret guard came from outside the door.
As soon as he heard the word "cleaned up", Fu Zhaoning knew that someone must have sneaked into the hall before.
Xiao Lanyuan was worried because she was going to take a bath, so he sent secret guards to guard her. There were relatively few people here.
It would be impossible for him to bring too many secret guards into the palace.
That's why these two palace maids were allowed to sneak in, right?
Upon hearing the secret guard's voice, the two palace maids turned pale, fell to the ground, and kowtowed hastily.
"Prince Jun, spare my life!"
"Princess, save this servant."
Fu Zhaoning clicked his tongue, walked over again, and reached out to lift up the face of a palace maid. She was a very pretty maid, and looked to be no more than fourteen or fifteen years old.
He looked pale, out of fear.
But their bodies were faintly red, their skin was a little hot, and their eyes were a little confused.
A palace maid pinched her legs tightly.
"A Yuan, what did they do?"
When Xiao Lanyuan was asked this by Fu Zhaoning, he felt angry, wronged, and innocent. "You told me to sleep first, so I lay down on the bed. After a while, they sneaked in and said they wanted to put two basins of ice in the hall, fearing that you would sleep too hot at night."
Pretty smart, he knew to bring up Fu Zhaoning.
At that time, Xiao Lanyuan really felt that in this kind of weather, he himself would not feel hot due to his weak physique, but Fu Zhaoning was a healthy person with sufficient qi and blood, so he might really feel hot.
He thought it would be a good idea to ask them to put out two basins of ice, so he let them in.
"I didn't expect them to come in and touch the bed, wanting, wanting--"
Fu Zhaoning looked at his slightly messy collar, then at the appearance of the two palace maids, and finally understood.
What are these two palace maids planning to force themselves on?
"I didn't touch them at all!"
Xiao Lanyuan was a little annoyed when he saw Fu Zhaoning's eyes glancing around, so he subconsciously explained.
"Yeah, yeah, I believe it."
Fu Zhaoning nodded perfunctorily.
"Why do you sound like you're just trying to please me?" Xiao Lanyuan frowned.
"No, I was thinking, you didn't touch them at all, so they moved away from the bed out of their own accord?"
The two palace maids must have used that kind of medicine to smear their hair, and the gauze they were wearing must have been sprayed with that kind of medicine that attracts men.
The drugs had already taken effect on them, and they were twisting and turning while kneeling on the ground, unable to hold on.
His face was pale with fright just now, but now it is completely red.
If they got on the bed where Xiao Lanyuan was sleeping and touched Xiao Lanyuan, it would be impossible for them to control themselves.
Just as Xiao Lanyuan was about to speak, Fu Zhaoning glanced at him and asked, "Did you use force?"
Only by using force can they be shaken away.
And then he said he didn't touch them at all.
Xiao Lanyuan thought that she didn't believe him, but when he heard that she was angry about whether he had used violence, his anger suddenly turned into guilt.
"This is an urgent matter, and I can't let them touch me."
Fu Zhaoning knew that the outside was now under control of his shadow guards, so he felt relieved and walked towards him quickly.
"Hands out."
Xiao Lanyuan obediently stretched out his hand for her to feel his pulse.
After Fu Zhaoning took his pulse, his face turned a little dark.
This is really the case when things get a little better.
"Eat this."
Fu Zhaoning handed him a Yangxin Pill and glared at him again, "Why are you using force to deal with something that can be kicked away?"
Is it to show that you are capable?
Xiao Lanyuan took the pill obediently and didn't dare to respond.
The main reason was that he instantly smelled the scent of the two palace maids. He felt disgusted and repulsed, and didn't want to touch them at all.
