Chapter 161: No good intention
Everyone said to the outside world that it was because of the wrong words said on Laba Day that caused so many disasters, and Jing Meiren was wronged, and she felt really sorry.
Shen Chuliu propped himself up and thanked him without saying anything.
After sending Jingrou away, Zirui whispered, "You have bad intentions."
"How can there be so much kindness?" Shen Chuliu was a little better today than yesterday, leaning against the soft couch: "Give me something to eat, I won't get better without food."
"It's you who don't want to eat. We servants are all looking forward to you eating." Zi Rui said.
"Everything they give me has no taste. How can I eat it?" Shen Chuliu snorted.
"Then you'd better eat something tasteless so that you can get better quickly. What do you want to eat when you get better?" Zi Rui said.
As he spoke, he asked someone to bring him some shredded chicken porridge.
Shen Chuliu ate a small bowl of side dishes and rinsed her mouth before lying down again: "I don't know if this is to recuperate or gain weight."
Zi Rui groaned, "You're already thin and you still have the nerve to say that."
Shen Chuliu pretended not to hear and fell asleep again after a while.
At Empress Dowager Li's place, Qi Yixiu sat and drank tea.
"The Cirui Palace is really willing to save its reputation. It was because they said the wrong thing when they promoted her like this. It's because Concubine Jing was wronged." Empress Dowager Li sneered.
"She has always been like this, doesn't the Queen Mother know?" Qi Yixiu smiled, "It doesn't matter if she tested me for the time being, but I didn't expect Lady Jing to be so disrespectful in public. Although every word she said was directed at the old Princess Shun, she couldn't save face."
"Lady Jing is a smart person. She didn't say a word about Mrs. Feng, nor did she say anything about Mrs. Li." This Mrs. Li refers to Lady Ying.
"Son, I heard that Princess Shun fell ill after returning? She almost had a stroke?" Qi Yixiu said with some gloating.
Prince Shun has been submitting memorials to his mother every day these days to plead for mercy.
Qi Yixiu kept all of them without sending them out or approving them.
It was just a test before, and now you feel it’s not good enough to remedy the situation?
"After Concubine Ying became pregnant, she became very arrogant. Your Majesty, have you checked whether she married Feng?" Empress Dowager Li said with a sarcastic smile.
"Not really. He probably wanted to overthrow Lady Jing." Qi Yixiu said.
"That's not smart either." Empress Dowager Li snorted, "No wonder you didn't like her in the past."
Qi Yixiu smiled.
"Forget it, fortunately it's a good result now. The royal family has been rampant in recent years. They always want to test and gain benefits from us. This time, let them know what's good for them." A beauty dares to criticize them directly, they should know the difference between lord and lord.
"There is no need to be angry, mother. It is only a matter of time." Nowadays, everyone in the royal family still has Empress Dowager Feng.
It was also during these years that the mother and son were too kind and tolerant to Feng, which made the clan members feel that they could gain a lot from it.
"With you here, I don't care about these things. At least we, mother and son, are not dead. Let's not talk about it anymore. It's getting late. Let's go back." Empress Dowager Li waved her hand.
The emperor stood up and left.
Empress Dowager Li was helped into the inner room.
"Your Majesty, it would be nice if our daughter could come in next year." Qiufen said with a smile.
"Yes, our third young lady is both talented and beautiful." Nanny Hua said with a smile.
Empress Dowager Li smiled after she lay down: "I can only ensure that her position will not be too embarrassing when she comes in. Although she is my niece, I cannot force the emperor to like her."
"There are several powerful people in the palace, Concubine Ning, Concubine Li, Lady Jing, and now there is also Su Yunu. What will happen at that time depends on Xiang'er herself."
"The first few are okay, but this Su Yu Nu... is just a Yu Nu." Nanny Hua said.
"After she became a criminal, she has no one to rely on, but she also has no obstacles. If she throws it all away, who knows what will happen."
"After all, she has no foundation. Even if she is favored, it is only temporary. The most important things are Concubine Li and Lady Jing." Nanny Hua said.
"I am the emperor's biological mother. They are fine. I can't dislike them just because my niece is coming in. Judging from what I see now, Concubine Jing has a good temper. She is much better than I was back then." said Empress Dowager Li.
"You're right. It would be good if we could live in harmony. After all, the harem cannot have one girl who stands out. It would not be good if our girl really overpowers the others." Isn't it dangerous? "Yes, and besides, let alone these few now, there will be girls from other families coming in next year." Empress Dowager Li said.
"Yes, it's too early to think about it now. You can ask the family to teach him well." said Nanny Hua.
Queen Mother Li nodded. She didn't ask for much. After all, her niece was coming in, so she had to give birth to a prince, right?
As for the rest, let's talk about it later.
Shen Chuliu had just gotten up for a while when he saw the emperor coming.
She hadn't combed her hair, and didn't expect the emperor to come, so she didn't come out: "The emperor came suddenly, I need to comb my hair first, it's too messy."
She hadn't combed her hair the last time the emperor came, but she let it down neatly.
Unlike now, she was rolling like a hedgehog.
"What a temper you have! I'm sitting outside, hurry up." Qi Yixiu laughed.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Shen Chuliu responded in the inner room.
After a while, she combed her hair. She didn't put it into a bun, but just gathered the top part with a hairpin and left the bottom part loose.
She changed into a red skirt: "Your Majesty."
"Is it ready now?" Qi Yixiu had just picked up the tea.
"I don't dare to keep you waiting for too long." Shen Chuliu came over and sat opposite him.
"Feeling better?" Qi Yixiu asked.
"I feel much better now that the fever has gone down, but I still have no strength. I still need to rest for a few days. Isn't the emperor busy today?" Shen Chuliu poured herself a cup of tea.
"Well, it's okay. It's almost noon, let's serve the meal." Qi Yixiu said.
When the meal was served, Shen Chuliu still had an appetite. Although she had a fever, she did not catch a cold after the fever subsided.
So he recovered fairly quickly, but I don't want to go and pay my respects, so I'd better rest for a few more days.
Qi Yixiu had no objection. In fact, he would not say anything if the concubines did not go every day.
I just keep it and put away what needs to be put away.
Shen Chuliu knew what was going on, so he didn't challenge it.
"Your Majesty, take a nap here, right?" Shen Chuliu asked.
"Well, take a break." Qi Yixiu said.
Just lie down in the outer room. It is warm outside and Shen Chuliu is with you.
When Qi Yixiu woke up, Shen Chuliu was sleeping soundly with her head buried in the quilt, and Zizhu hurried to serve her.
Qi Yixiu didn't intentionally disturb him, nor did he intentionally not disturb him.
So I didn't call her.
Before leaving, he ordered: "Serve well, and call the imperial physician if there is anything."
Zizhu quickly agreed and sent Qi Yixiu out with Zirui.
Shen Chuliu turned over: "I'm thirsty."
"Master, are you awake?" Zhemei was surprised.
"I'm too lazy to move, so I'm just pretending to sleep." Shen Chuliu stretched out his hand and yawned, "I'm so tired from sleeping that my bones are weak."
"You'll be fine after a few days of exercise." Zhemei smiled, put thick clothes on her, and helped her up to drink water.
"Master, the emperor has left." Zizhu Zirui came in and said.
"Yes, I understand."
"Hey?" Zi Rui suddenly stood in front of the window: "Ying Cairen is here?"
"Did you meet the emperor?" Zizhu said.
Meow.
