"No contact?" the Queen Mother frowned and asked, "Are you saying this to distance yourself from your mother's family?"

Concubine Wen wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and nodded resolutely: "If you have different opinions, please don't agree with each other. I want to live a long life, and I don't want to be like my sister, who runs out of oil and lamps."

"You see clearly." The Empress Dowager sighed, but she still seemed to have reservations about Concubine Wen's determination. Although she also knew that the Niu Hulu family was no more arrogant and noisy than in previous years, and Concubine Tong in the palace was insurmountable.

In addition, the biggest reason is that Concubine Wen is too indifferent to her family. Not only does she often avoid meeting, it is said that she would only say a few words to get rid of her, and she even made sarcastic remarks to her family. She did not see Niu Hulu in the twelfth and first month of this year.

Someone from the family has entered the palace, which shows that these words at this moment are not nonsense made out of anger.

But after all, she is the daughter of the Niu Hulu family. How can she persist in not having contact with each other for a lifetime despite her temporary indifference? Women in the palace are all eager to have a backer outside the palace. The reason why concubine Hui is able to have both sides is not only because she has a good temper but also knows how to be a good person.

Since Concubine Wen has the support of Mingzhu Mansion behind her, and she doesn't rely on such a large family, who will come forward to seek justice for her, such as taking the wrong medicine?

"Since you are looking at Gu Juechan's ever-present pulse, I will leave Concubine Wen's care to you in the future. I will see that Concubine Wen is getting better within two or three months." The Empress Dowager ordered leisurely, pointing to the imperial physician.

, "This matter ends here. I have my own justice for Concubine Wen. You don't need to spread it everywhere. If you hear any gossip circulating in the palace, you will not be able to eat a bowl of rice. Who else in the family can you expect to live?"

The imperial doctor knelt down in panic and said that he would never publicize it to anyone, and vowed to take good care of Concubine Wen's body. After that, he was sent out. The Empress Dowager glanced at Lan Qi and said, "Sit down."

Lan Qi has been standing on the side, and now Qian Qian is sitting on a stool nearby. Aunt Sumala sent the imperial doctor back, and I don’t know if she asked anything again. After returning, she came back in front of the Empress Dowager and the two of them.

He said: "I want to ask you more, my wife, isn't the imperial physician who serves you always chosen by your family and sent to the palace? Why can this imperial physician see that your body is not healthy at a glance, while the imperial physician who has been serving you all this time?"

The imperial physician can't see anything wrong, so he should be the most loyal to you."

"What Mammy said is right, but the imperial doctor always sent me out to tell the family about me. Before..." Concubine Wen responded, suddenly losing some confidence, lowering her head and saying in embarrassment, "Before, I was pregnant.

After giving birth, plus the matter of Chengqian Palace, I completely fell out with Aling'a, and I will never let these imperial doctors take care of me again. The current imperial physician was appointed by the emperor later, and I guess it has nothing to do with the family. As for why he looked at me

I don't understand if it doesn't come out. I took these medicines for a long time after I had a miscarriage that year. The imperial doctor always seemed to say that I was not well. I changed the prescription several times, but I can't find out what I took before. Now

I don’t know when I actually started taking these medicines.”

Lan Qi saw a very cold light flashing in the eyes of the Empress Dowager, which made her heart tighten with coldness. However, the old man did not say anything, but only told Concubine Wen: "I will send another imperial doctor to take a look at you.

Take care of your health with peace of mind. I am very pleased that you are so considerate and don't make trouble that everyone knows. Your sister has always been the most stable person. Kneel down first." Then he said to Lan Qi, "Send it off for me, you

There’s no need to come back, just go back and rest.”

The two stood up and left. Lan Qi followed Concubine Wen and left the Cining Palace. She arrived in a low-key manner, riding in a soft sedan chair. Only Dong Yun and the previous imperial doctor were accompanying her. Lan Qi was accompanied only by purple jade beads and Wen.

The concubine stood in front of the door and said, "Can you go to Xianfu Palace for a cup of tea? I want to talk to someone."

Lan Qi was noncommittal, and Concubine Wen had a sad smile on her face, mocking herself: "I entered the palace originally to give birth to a child for my sister, but she left, and I couldn't keep the child even if I had one. Fortunately, I have no desire for the child. This

I probably don’t mind growing medicine and taking it for the rest of my life. But the emperor let me raise my eighth brother. The child is so cute. I look at him every day and think how great it would be to have a child of my own. I take medicine more diligently to nurse him back to health.

Who would have known that this morning I carried my eighth brother to see Jue Chan Chang Zai. The medicine for both of us was delivered to the same place, and his imperial doctor happened to come and stopped him and said that the medicine was wrong. After checking again..." she said with a smile.

Tears looked at Lan Qi and smiled bitterly, "Tell me, who wants to harm me? Is this my retribution?"

Lan Qi shook her head and lowered her head in response: "I don't know, my empress, don't think too much about it, go back and rest early, I still have something to do in the palace, I will visit you next time."

"Just have a cup of tea, I won't give you anything unclean to drink." Concubine Wen said in an almost pleading tone, "It's too cold in Xianfu Palace. I'm scared to sit alone."

"How about I go back to Yonghe Palace first and bring the sixth elder brother and show him the eighth elder brother?" Lan Qi finally raised her head and smiled, "Yinzuo hasn't met the eighth elder brother yet."

Concubine Wen's face seemed to have a spring breeze blowing over her face, and she smiled with unusual joy: "I've been waiting for you to come, you must come."

The person in front of her walked away happily. After sweeping away the sad atmosphere just now, she got on the sedan chair without forgetting to close the curtain and said: "You have to come here quickly. I'll let Dongyun stew egg custard for Yinzuo."

."

It wasn't until Concubine Wen's sedan was far away that Luzhu followed up and asked, "Master, why are you so relaxed? Do we really want to go? Do you want me to go back and say something later, saying that something happened and I can't leave?"

"No, I've even counted Yinzuo, so I can't lie." Lan Qi didn't care and quickly led them back. She thought Yinzuo would take a nap, but the little guy was actually very energetic. Lan Qi dressed him up.

I was holding him in my arms to go out, but before I got on the sedan, the door to the Chengqian Palace opened, and the child's cries became louder and louder. Everyone saw that the fourth brother was taken out and placed in front of the door, but the wet nurse

She immediately went in again, leaving the child alone at the door. She didn't know what she was going to do, but Lan Qi's heart trembled when she heard Yinzhen's "Eniang!"

She involuntarily took a few steps forward. When the wet nurse came up to take Yinzuo, she suddenly came back to her senses. Not only did she not let go of Yinzuo, she even wanted to step back.

"Eniang..." Lan Qi turned around, and Yinzhen's cry pierced her heart again. She knew clearly that Eniang was not calling her, so she still turned around, but this time she saw the gorgeously dressed concubine walking out of the door and hugging her.

She squatted with her arms in front of Yinzhen. It could be seen that she was a little angry, but her angry eyes could scare the children. She didn't know what she was saying. She pouted while speaking, and she had already picked up a handkerchief to wipe it with Brother Si.

Tears.

Yinzhen stopped crying. After wiping his tears, he fell on the concubine's shoulder and acted coquettishly. Concubine Tong picked him up and turned sideways to see the people here. Lan Qi was startled and couldn't avoid it. The concubine didn't seem to want to

To leave, she could only hold Yin Zuo over and bow to him.

"Are you going out?" Concubine Tong saw the sedan in front of Yonghe Palace, but asked, "Or have you just come back?"

"I want to take the sixth elder brother to Xianfu Palace. Concubine Wen invites me to have a cup of tea. By the way, Yinzuo has never seen the eighth elder brother, so he asked him to go and see his little brother." Lan Qi responded and motioned to the wet nurse.

He followed up and took Yinzao away. The wet nurse hugged the sixth elder brother, bowed to the imperial concubine, and then returned to the same place. However, when Yinzhen saw his brother leaving, he stretched out his hands to go, groaning in the imperial concubine's arms.

.

The imperial concubine did not agree and asked the wet nurse to take the entangled child away. She looked at Lan Qi and said, "You can just go and drink tea alone. What are you doing with the sixth elder brother? Although the eighth elder brother is raised under Concubine Wen's knees, he can't.

Can his biological mother compare with you? Our fourth brother will not go there, what’s the point of seeing a baby?"

"I didn't invite Fourth Brother." Lan Qi was confused and was about to explain, but she heard the imperial concubine make a dry cough and said, "Did you just see me kicking Yinzhen out?"

Lan Qi nodded, feeling embarrassed, but the imperial concubine continued: "He just scratched the wet nurse's arm and lost his temper unreasonably. I was teaching him a lesson, but I didn't mean to drive him away at all. Don't look at it.

When I arrived, I started thinking nonsense, and then I went somewhere to talk nonsense."

Lan Qi said nothing, but Concubine Tong turned around and left. The door of Chengqian Palace closed, and the green bead and purple jade behind her hurriedly came over and asked her if she could leave. Then she smiled bitterly and said: "I really do."

I don’t understand this lady’s temper.”

At this moment, in the Cining Palace, two groups of people from the Taiyi Hospital came, all of whom were confidants of the Empress Dowager. They talked for a long time in the inner hall, until everyone left, and Mammy did not let other maids come in to serve her.

One person was accompanying the Empress Dowager. Seeing her frown, he couldn't help but ask: "Are you still doubting the Emperor?"

"Concubine Wen said that the imperial doctor was appointed by him. If the imperial doctor did anything, it may not be Xuan Ye's intention. I don't want him to do such a thing." The Empress Dowager was full of worries, "Although contraception is not killing a child, it can

If you do this, you will ruin your own luck. Concubine Tong's sachets caused Concubine Yi to lose her son. This is a lesson."

Perhaps because of her age, the Empress Dowager is more and more in awe of the retribution of gods and Buddhas. When she was young, she also had the courage to kill and decisively kill, but now she lacks such ruthlessness. Perhaps the old man still has an iron fist, but after all, she does not want Xuan Ye to do it himself.

This kind of thing that hurts the heir Yanmian, I couldn't help but be worried at this moment, and said to Aunt Sumala: "He promised me not to do this again."

Mammy's lenient explanation: "Long Live Lord has listened to you since he was a child and promised not to do it again. I will send someone to investigate carefully. If it weren't for Long Live Lord's thoughts, wouldn't you have wronged him?"

The Empress Dowager's eyes were cold, and she said bitterly: "Let's check carefully. If it's not Xuan Ye's intention, but some woman in this palace has evil intentions, or if she asks for Etu, Tong Guowei and the others put their claws in again, this

This must be dealt with strictly, so as to scare the monkeys."

On this side of the carriage, Lan Qi slowly carried Yinzuo to the Xianfu Palace. When she got off the sedan, she heard the baby crying.

Yinzuo is my elder brother, so we can’t cry for a while.”
