Chapter 393: Watertight
When Mei Mei was being looked at, she was also nervous, and she just tried to show a perfect smile.
However, Shen Chuliu said nothing in the end and just smiled.
That kind of... superior, indifferent smile.
Mei Mei was very angry, but she didn't dare to do anything.
It was not until the queen came in that she gradually suppressed the anger that was about to burst out.
Isn't it just that she entered the palace early? She will have such a day too! But the Vision Zhaoyi will never fall out of favor.
The Queen came and said a few words, "Let's go, my lady, and pay our respects to the Empress Dowager. Empress Dowager Feng is still ill, and no one is allowed to disturb her. Let's go to Empress Dowager Li."
Everyone stood up, and Mei Mei actually felt relieved.
Empress Dowager Feng closed the door and refused to see visitors, but Empress Dowager Li saw that the Emperor was still there.
Everyone wanted to show their best greetings and strive to be seen by the emperor.
Empress Dowager Li looked somewhat mocking, but remained calm.
After everyone was seated, the Queen Mother asked the same routine questions as the Queen did, starting with the Queen and the Second Princess.
Then ask the other children, because the Eighth Prince has announced to the public that he is still ill, so we need to ask him as well.
After all, the Eighth Prince is stupid for not being completely determined yet.
Wen Chongrong's answer was flawless.
Empress Dowager Li did not deliberately make things difficult for her.
She also asked Zhen Chongyi about the Ninth Prince. Although she had always been concerned about the Ninth Prince and must have known about him, asking also showed that she treated him equally.
The tenth prince was also questioned, as well as the pregnant Li Zhaoyuan.
The Queen Mother smiled and asked, "How does Li Zhaoyuan feel about this pregnancy?"
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty the Queen Mother. I feel fine. The imperial physician also said that the fetus is stable." Li Zhaoyuan's complexion was indeed good.
"That's good. In the harem, it is always a good thing to have many children and blessings. You are blessed." Queen Mother Li said with a smile.
Li Zhaoyuan thanked him with a smile, feeling somewhat disappointed. As expected, at her position, the Queen Mother did not dare to easily say that she would be promoted if she gave birth to a child.
But as long as she gives birth to this baby, no matter whether it is a boy or a girl, she will be promoted sooner or later.
After all, she couldn't escape the position of a second-rank concubine.
This time, he could even walk ahead of Shen Chuliu.
After all, the achievement of childbearing is a big deal.
Everyone might have their own thoughts, so this greeting was perfect.
Back at Cuiyunxuan, Zhemei came up to serve and said, "Master, Shen Baolin has been ill for several days."
"Well, I know she is sick. Is it very serious?" Shen Chuliu asked.
Many people fell ill during this period, but Shen Baolin, who was not favored, was still easily ignored.
"It's said to be serious. You know she can't find any good imperial physician. Now we servants hear that it is very serious. What do you think, master?" Chi Su wanted to ask whether the master would care.
Suppressing someone and not allowing them to come out is one thing, but not doing anything if they are dying is still criticized no matter what.
Life is so contradictory.
"Do you know what disease it is?" Shen Chuliu asked.
"I asked around and found out it's probably a gastrointestinal problem. At first he had a fever, but later he just couldn't eat." He gets diarrhea as soon as he eats, and he can't not eat.
"This is not a serious illness, why can't it be cured?" Shen Chuliu was surprised.
As for gastrointestinal problems, they are not a big deal.
"Master, you don't know yet... in the palace... she can't even hire a good imperial physician, and her medicine isn't good enough, so what about the kitchen..." Jimei said.
"Well, then go to the kitchen and tell them to take care of Shen Baolin during this period. Then go to the Imperial Medical Bureau and find an imperial physician. It doesn't have to be a very good one, and young ones are fine. Just go find one." This kind of disease can usually be treated by an imperial physician.
Shen Baolin was like this simply because the imperial physician was not paying attention and the kitchen was not careful either.
"Well, then I'll ask someone to go and take a look." Jimei said.
Chi Su said, "Just ask those little girls to go."
Jimei nodded.
The new girls this year, Bai Yan and Huang Li, are both smart and sensible, but they are young and don't need so many close servants.
Chi Su likes to order them around the most, not to bully them, but because he thinks they are smart and can be useful. He is not afraid of having too much work, but is afraid of having no work.
"Since we have done good things, when I see you later, should we also go to Qingzhi Pavilion and tell them?" Chi Su would never suffer any loss.
"I'll listen to you." Shen Chuliu smiled and shook his head, not caring about it.
Chi Su smiled and went out to give orders. Not long after, Bai Yan went to the kitchen and the imperial physician's office to look for someone. Although she was young, only about ten years old, she would not be looked down upon as long as she told where she came from.
And Huangli went to Qingzhi Pavilion.
As the name suggests, Huangli is very good at speaking.
When he met Shen Baolin, he didn't deliberately mention the good points of Shen Chuliu, but just told him about the arrangements of the kitchen and the imperial medical department.
"Baolin, just focus on recuperating and you will get better."
Shen Baolin didn't know what to say, so he could only thank her and give her a reward.
She lay on the couch in the outer room, in a daze.
Zhijin, who had sent Huangli away, came in and said softly, "Don't worry, Baolin, this time. They won't dare to be unfaithful."
This was originally a kind remark, but to Shen Baolin, it sounded like complete irony: "You also think that I have to rely on her? If she gives me a little, I should be grateful?"
Zhijin was stunned and knelt down quickly: "What are you saying, Baolin? I dare not."
Shen Baolin laughed at himself: "Even you feel this way, who else would not think this way? Get up."
Zhijin stood up hesitantly: "Baolin..."
"It's okay, you go out and ask Xiujin to come in and serve you." Shen Baolin waved his hand.
Zhijin felt very upset, but didn't dare to say anything.
Xiu Jin came in: "Baolin."
"You say, should I live like this for the rest of my life?" Shen Baolin said softly.
"Of course not. Baolin is still young and has unlimited opportunities. But no matter what, you should take care of yourself first." Xiu Jin said carefully: "Before, because of your family affairs, the emperor was a little bit taboo. That's why the people below were upset. Now it's a good thing that Concubine Jing Zhaoyi reminded them. At least they dare not go too far."
Xiu Jin has been guessing her thoughts over the past few years: "After you get better, you should also think of a way. How can you just keep enduring like this at such a young age? You are still the legitimate daughter of the Shen family."
Of course Shen Baolin liked to hear this.
"Yes, she is also the legitimate daughter of the Shen family. My mother now loves a concubine's daughter who was adopted by her. She doesn't care about my suffering in this palace at all."
"I dare not say this, as it would be troublesome if they hear it. However, as long as you can gain favor, everything will be easy." Xiu Jin said.
"Let me think about it. Since my good sister is helping me, I will continue. When I get better, I will naturally go to thank her." Shen Baolin said with a smile.
