Chapter 240 Temperature
Difference After they sat down, the two began to talk.
"That Butterfly, I always feel that she is too calm." Su Cairen said.
"Zhang Baolin is stupid, so you can't blame others for plotting against her. It's just that there must be a master behind this matter." Shen Chuliu said.
"That's true. There are many new people this time, but losing two of them at once is scary enough. Judging from Meng Baolin's condition, she will definitely not be able to get pregnant in the future." What Su Cairen didn't say was that if it was like this, her life span might be shortened.
Shen Chuliu nodded: "No matter who is behind this, they did it too cleanly this time. The emperor got angry and just dealt with Zhang Baolin. What happened afterwards, however, cannot be found out."
"If you want to investigate, of course you can. Zhang Baolin and Meng Baolin's servants are still here. It just depends on whether the emperor wants to investigate or not." Su Cairen said.
Shen Chuliu smiled, they all knew the result.
But it doesn't matter if Meng Baolin's miscarriage is investigated or not? If he could execute Zhang Baolin in anger, it would be considered an investigation.
What's more, Zhang Baolin was courting death. No matter what was going on, it was clearly arranged by someone on the surface.
The emperor was too lazy to listen to her rebuttal, which shows his character.
Even if he escapes this time, he will die for something else next time.
"I always feel uncomfortable thinking about the presence of such a sinister and powerful person." Su Cairen said.
"There are a lot of powerful people, so we just have to be careful." Shen Chuliu originally wanted to say I always feel that there are powerful people.
But when she remembered the strange pregnancy of Su Cairen before, she didn't want to talk about it anymore.
She and Su Cairen have similar personalities, but they are not to the point where they can talk about everything.
Su Cairen sat for a while and then left.
Shen Chuliu asked, "What do you think about this?"
Yuanxiao said anxiously, "Master, this is really strange. They said they went to the pomegranate tree to check. Although it was not much, they saw oil from where the two Baolins slipped. I didn't know it at first. It was a little eunuch here who told me to please me. I scolded him and said I would send him to the Fourth Master. That's why he was scared and cried."
It's not that Yuanxiao is so cruel after getting the benefit. It's fine to just say this to him, but if he catches the eunuch and tells him, then this eunuch will lose his life sooner or later.
"Tsk, as expected. I guess the shoes on Zhang Baolin's feet will no longer exist." Shen Chuliu frowned.
Yuan Xiao responded: "I think this is the only way to go, but we have to see who is so powerful. Otherwise, it will be difficult to deal with it if we get hurt in the future."
"Let's wait and see. But in this case, two people are hurt at once, so who can take advantage?"
Everyone began to ponder. Indeed, if one died and one was disabled, who could take advantage?
Meng Baolin was directly crippled. If her position was high enough and she still had feelings for the emperor, it wouldn't be too difficult for her to get pregnant.
But she had only been in the palace for a few months and had served the emperor a few times, but she was already half useless. How much friendship could the emperor have for her? Now he showed pity for her and gave her many rewards, but after this period...
What's more, Meng Baolin has been ill for some time since her injury and she might not show up for a few months. By the time she shows up again, it might be too late.
In the evening of that day, the emperor came to Guanlan Pavilion.
At this time, Shen Chuliu was holding the Sixth Prince and playing in the bauhinia bushes behind Guanlan Pavilion.
The six prince, who was more than five months old, looked around with a pair of extremely curious eyes.
When Qi Yixiu came and passed by Guanlan Pavilion, she walked from the back first. When she saw many people among the bauhinia flowers, she knew she was here.
When I got closer, I found that the Sixth Prince was also there.
"Why are you here?" Qi Yixiu smiled.
Shen Chuliu hugged the Sixth Prince: "May the Emperor be well."
“No need to be so polite.” Qi Yixiu waved his hand, handed the fan in his hand to Chu Si, and reached out to pull the Sixth Prince’s hand.
The Sixth Prince looked at him for a while, then turned around and continued to look at Huahua.
Qi Yixiu looked at his son with amusement. This child was quite curious.
Shen Chuliu handed the child to Zirui.
Then he said, "Your Majesty, please sit here. It's not hot now."
Qi Yixiu nodded and sat down at the stone table.
Zizhu and the others had already served tea. Qi Yixiu looked at the Sixth Prince held by Zirui and said, "Yan'er is growing very fast and strong."
"He's already more than five months old. He eats a lot and sleeps well, so he's growing well." Shen Chuliu was curious: "How is the fifth prince? I've only seen him once."
"She's also good-looking. She's a little fatter than Yan'er." Qi Yixiu spoke more conservatively.
That's not just a little fatter...it's half as fat.
But it’s okay to be fat when you’re a baby, you can lose weight when you grow up.
Besides, the child has already eaten.
The two talked about children for a few words, and then Shen Chuliu changed the topic.
After all, the emperor was not the homely type, and although he acted harmless, he was not one who liked this kind of topic.
After a while, mosquitoes appeared, so Shen Chuliu asked people to take the Sixth Prince back.
He also entered Guanlan Pavilion with Qi Yixiu.
The attic was extremely cool, and there was a light, pleasant smell. When I looked closely, I saw blooming lotus flowers on the eight-immortals table in the room.
The fragrance comes from here.
Very light, but smells good.
"Give me some of your summer-cooling soup." Qi Yixiu said as he sat on the couch.
Shen Chuliu asked someone to get it, which was hawthorn, tangerine peel and black plum soup that she had made on the small stove.
It tastes very good and is great for relieving heat.
"I should have put licorice in it, but I don't like the lingering taste, so I didn't put it in. I didn't put rock sugar either. The hawthorns are all old, not too sour, and the black plums are ripe, not too sour. I like the taste of tangerine peel, Your Majesty, please try it."
Qi Yixiu took it and took a sip.
At first sip, I didn’t like the taste, but as I drank it more, I thought it was pretty good.
Shen Chuliu knew that the emperor was in a bad mood today, so he didn't say much. He served him a drink and asked someone to prepare a meal.
She didn't even ask the emperor what he wanted to eat, she just followed the rules and made what she usually liked.
As expected, Qi Yixiu had no objection. After dinner, he sat down in front of the window facing the waterfall. The window was open, but there was a screen, so there were no mosquitoes.
"Do you usually sleep here to enjoy the cool air?" Qi Yixiu and Shen Chuliu were sitting on the same couch at this moment.
"How could that be? I'm just sitting here for a while before going to bed. If I really sleep here, I'll catch a cold at night. However, I have slept here several times during the day. It's quite comfortable." A nap is okay.
It’s not possible at night because the temperature difference between day and night is too big.
Qi Yixiu pulled her into his arms: "My beloved concubine knows how to maintain her health."
"Your Majesty, don't you understand? Isn't Your Majesty just worried about me?" Shen Chuliu smiled and rubbed Qi Yixiu's neck: "It's a pity that the weather is average today, there is no moon, and the stars are not bright enough."
