Chapter 112: One wave has not yet subsided, another wave has risen

The news that Su Yiyan had gone insane spread quickly throughout the harem, and soon after, Doctor Yu came to see her.

Yunqin and Rongxin didn't take it seriously at the time, but after Doctor Yu left, they noticed that Su Yiyan had suddenly become much quieter, and then they discovered that she had been poisoned and become mute.

"The Emperor, the Emperor did it?" Rong Xin looked horrified.

The shock on Yun Qin's face faded, leaving only a chill, "It's not the Emperor, it's the Empress!"

"Why?" In Rong Xin's impression, the queen has always been partial to Su Yiyan.

Yun Qin sneered, "I'm afraid that after she goes crazy, she will say something she shouldn't say, and it will implicate the Su family."

"You mean, this, this is also the Su family's intention?" Rong Xin looked at Su Yiyan who was struggling on the bed, somewhat incredulous.

But even though it was hard to believe, she knew it was the truth.

Compared with the entire Su family and the interests of the Gong family, what does a useless daughter mean?

"Should we tell the emperor about this?" Rong Xin asked again.

Yun Qin's eyes became colder, "What's the point of telling the emperor? The queen dared to do this, so she naturally wouldn't leave any evidence. If she were to investigate, I'm afraid she would put the blame on you and me, saying that you and I hated Su Yiyan."

"Despicable!" Rong Xin gritted his teeth.

“But it still needs to be said. If I can think of it, the emperor will naturally think of it too. Let’s see how he handles it.” Yun Qin said coldly.

The next day, the eunuchs really carried the two people's belongings over.

In fact, there was only one box. When they carried the thing over, even Nanny Li in front was not startled.

The fact that they were able to lift things indicated that the interrogation of Chunxi and his men was over.

Xiao Dezi also came with them.

As soon as the eunuch who delivered the gifts left, Xiao Dezi told the emperor about his plan to go to the front with an apologetic look on his face.

"This is a good thing." Yun Qin said sincerely: "To be able to serve the emperor is something that many people would beg for, and Xu An appreciates you so much, isn't this a great thing?"

"But, but I won't be able to serve you anymore in the future. Will you really not blame me?" Xiao Dezi still looked worried.

Yun Qin said with a smile: "I am in this state now, what do I need you to do for me?"

Seeing that she had no complaints, Xiao Dezi breathed a sigh of relief and his eyes became more determined. "Xiao Dezi still says the same thing. Xiao Dezi will always listen to her sister."

After hearing this, Yun Qin had nothing to understand. She knew that he went to Yu not to plan a future for herself, but to help her.

"You..." Yun Qin was speechless for a moment.

Xiao Dezi smiled at her and said, "Don't worry, sister. I'm smart and will be more careful."

Yunqin opened her mouth and had many things to say, but in the end, all she said was, "Thank you."

It would be great for her if the emperor had someone of his own by his side.

"Why are you being so polite to me, sister? Didn't you just say that this is a great thing for me?" Xiao Dezi laughed again.

Yun Qin couldn't laugh at all, and just nodded slightly, "Being with the emperor is like being with a tiger, you should be careful in everything."

"Sister is the one who needs to take good care of herself."

After saying a few words, Xiao Dezi couldn't stay any longer and left quickly.

A few days later, another eunuch brought her a lot of food, clothing and other supplies.

Probably on Xu An's orders, the eunuch who brought the gifts did not forget to tell her: "These are all sent to you by the Emperor."

Looking at these things, Yun Qin's smile cooled slightly. As she thought, guilt was more reliable than love.

After thanking the visitor, Yun Qin told him that Su Yiyan had suddenly become mute.

The eunuch was also slightly startled, and no longer in the mood to joke, and immediately reported back to Huo Jinchi.

Yun Qin had no idea how Huo Jinchi reacted, but not long after, Xiao Dezi sent a message saying that the imperial physician who came to treat Su Yiyan was beaten with fifty boards and thrown out of the palace because of a negligence.

Fifty lashes of the cane, even if he survives, he will be useless.

Yun Qin sighed and put the matter behind her.

These disputes seemed far away from her now. The days in the cold palace were leisurely and peaceful, passing by quickly one by one.

I looked up inadvertently and found that the maple leaves outside had gradually turned red.

Yun Qin got up early, wrapped herself in clothes and sat on the couch by the window, looking at the maple leaves outside, looking relaxed.

She sat by the window admiring the view, unaware that she was also a part of the view in the eyes of others.

Compared to when she was in Chunxi Palace, Yunqin looked much more rosy in this cold palace, but she was still very thin.

She has grown taller than when she just turned 18. Her eyes and eyebrows are more open, and she looks even more beautiful and charming.

The autumn wind also comes into the painting, blowing the beauty's long hair, making the picture even more beautiful and captivating.

But some people don't know how to appreciate it.

"Put on your clothes quickly, be careful not to catch a cold!"

Rong Xin, who was passing by the bed, shouted with a stern face.

Yun Qin had no choice but to put on her clothes and get up to wash.

While wiping his face, he saw Rong Xin coming out of the main hall and asked, "How is it?"

The wounds on Su Yiyan's face have basically scabbed over, leaving behind hideous scars that make her look like neither human nor ghost. She cannot speak and her personality has become more ferocious.

Now he is not as unrecognizable as before, but he still often goes crazy, especially when he sees Yun Qin.

The last time Yunqin went to bring her food, she smashed the bowl and picked up the broken pieces to scratch Yunqin's face. Fortunately, Yunqin reacted quickly and kicked her away.

After that, Rong Xin never let Yun Qin get close to Su Yiyan again.

"I'll eat when I'm hungry." Rong Xin said calmly, then frowned and said, "I was just getting food at the door, and the eunuch who delivered the food said that there is a severe locust plague in the west, and many refugees have poured into the capital."

"Locust plague?" Yun Qin frowned.

It is true that locust plagues are very likely to occur at the turn of summer and autumn. She had seen it in a documentary in her previous life. The locusts covered the sky and the sun, leaving not a single leaf behind after their passage.

Rong Xin continued with emotion, "The emperor is now very busy. The nobles have begun to set up porridge stalls in the city to help the victims. I heard that the concubines also contributed money to set up porridge stalls. Although it may be just for show, it is also a good thing for the victims."

What happened in the previous dynasty was not something Yunqin could control. When she mentioned the large number of disaster victims entering the city, although she felt sympathy, she was also a little worried about Ajing.

"The victims are a mixed bunch. Ajing and Nanny Ruan are both women. We need to write a letter and ask them to find someone who can look after the house." Yun Qin said as she quickly put down her handkerchief and went to find pen and ink.

"Yes, yes." Rong Xin nodded continuously and hurriedly helped Yun Qin grind the ink.

Before I finished writing the letter, someone in the yard suddenly shouted, "Where are the people in this yard?"

Yunqin and Rongxin looked at each other and had no choice but to put down their writing and go out to see.

The person who came was a tall and thin nanny with a mean face. She looked Yun Qin and Rong Xin up and down, and her gaze naturally lingered on Yun Qin's face for a while.

Rong Xin noticed her gaze and stood in front of Yun Qin, "I wonder what brings you here, Madam?"

The maid snorted, "There are disaster victims in the city. Now the nobles in the palace have set up porridge stalls in the city. There are not enough people. Let me find some people to go out of the palace to help."

Yun Qin sneered when she heard this. What was the problem with not having enough manpower? It was obvious that she was reluctant to let the people around her go out of the palace to distribute porridge, so she asked the palace maids in the cold palace to take over.
