There is no sacrificial celebration in the palace, and neither Nangong Lizhu nor my enthronement ceremony can be held.                                                                                                                

More than once I heard 6 Xinrong and the others come to greet the queen, and by the way "passed" by me, and said loudly, it felt quite interesting.

However, only you know the taste of each person.

Just like Chang Qing, she is in the prosperous scene every day, with the emperor's favor and the concubines gathered around her. The not-so-large room in Jingren's palace is coming and going every day, the sound of orioles and the sound of swallows is caring and considerate, countless treasures are sent here, and she always smiles happily and deals with everyone with kindness and thoughtfulness, but there is a bit of force and a bit of truth in that smile. Who is the one who can see clearly?

I kept waiting outside the window, and through the window, I could see Chang Qing's smile on her face showing some fatigue. The concubines and the wives from their parents' home were still flattering. As the saying goes, don't hit people with smiles, it's no wonder she made her like this in one morning.

Just as I turned around, I saw Kouer bringing someone to deliver medicine, so I simply followed him in.

"Empress, the Imperial Pharmacy has come to deliver medicine."

As soon as Kouer and I entered the house, the concubines and wives all turned to look at me.

His eyes were also a bit frivolous.

Of course this is not the first time. After many times, I became calm. I was shaved by the blade-like eyes. I could still walk over and stand beside Chang Qing indifferently and said carefully: "The medicine was ordered by the emperor. After the empress is used, I will pass the message back."

As soon as these words were spoken, several concubines and wives couldn't sit still.

They stood up and said goodbye: "I won't disturb the Queen's rest."

"I, please leave."

Chang Qing smiled and said, "I am so sank, so I won't give it to you."

"Please rest well, my dear queen."

I watched them leave obediently, and I couldn't help but feel funny. It turned out that Pei Yuanhao had such a useful thing. When I lowered my head, I saw Chang Qing leaning on the soft couch and gently rubbing her eyebrows. There were clearly a few deep lines there. However, when I looked up at me, my face was a little relaxed: "It's a blessing for you."

I smiled and asked Kuoer to serve the medicine and drink it. Xing'er and the others were already stunned by the various gifts sent by the ladies on the table, such as white jade Guanyin and gold dragon garlands.

I didn't have much time to see those things, I just watched Chang Qing drink medicine. The medicine smelled very bitter, and her beautiful face wrinkled together. She was always dignified and elegant on weekdays, but she rarely looked like a little childish look. It was just that the medicine was really bitter. I could smell that smell even when I stood beside me.

However, there seems to be a fragrance in the bitter taste.

I sniffed: "What's so fragrant?"

Chang Qing took a sip of the medicine and frowned in pain. After a while, she recovered and pointed at the table: "I don't know who sent the flowers, it smells so good."

There was indeed a pot of petite and delicate plum blossoms on the table, which were very beautiful. I walked over and looked at them, and Xing'er also came over to watch the fun and smelled the rich fragrance: "This flower is so fragrant, what kind of flower is it?"

Everyone couldn't recognize him, so they just shook their heads.

I looked at it for a while and said calmly: "It's a different kind of Lantana. But this flower is not fragrant, it smells smelly."

"It's smelly?" Kuo'er looked at him in confusion: "It's obviously so fragrant, how could it be--"

“The smell of the flower pot.”

As I said, I pushed apart the gold, jewelry and jade piled on the table, and then I saw that this potted plant was made of carefully carved porcelain pots, but the porcelain pot had some tricks. The middle was empty, with a circle of lilacs inlaid, and it was carefully carved into a flying phoenix. It looked particularly delicate and luxurious, and it was no wonder it was so fragrant.

Xing'er said silly: "Wow, it's really take time."

I smiled and said, "It's really taken time."

As he said that, he looked back at Chang Qing, and she also looked at me, frowned slightly between her eyebrows: "What's going on?"

I walked over, took the medicine bowl she had already drunk, and said, "This flower is poisonous."

"What?!"

When Kouer and the others heard this, they were all shocked and said in a lost voice: "Is it poisonous?"

Chang Qing's brow twitched unconsciously, and he picked up a silk handkerchief and wiped the tip of his nose. I said calmly: "But this is a different species. The flowers are smaller than ordinary lantana, and the smell is weaker, so they are also weaker in toxicity. You have to place them for a long time before you can really suffer."

Kua'er was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly picked up the gift list on the table and opened it.

I didn't say anything, and put the bowl back on the small table next to me. Chang Qing lowered her eyes a little tired - that girl was also stupid. I came here to check this time, how to check it?

Sure enough, she looked up and down for a long time and said, "Why are there no gift list?"

I turned to look at Chang Qing: "Empress."

"Forget it," she waved her hand calmly: "Take it down."

Those girls were a little unwilling to give in and mumbled. After I said a few words, I ordered the eunuchs to remove everything. I walked back to Chang Qing and carefully rubbed her temples on both sides. She felt a little more comfortable, but the solemn expression on her face did not fade.

I said softly, "What do you think of Empress?"

"What else can I think?"

"The Empress knows who it is?"

"Who else can you?"

Indeed, in this palace, I would not think of being a second person if I could treat Chang Qing like this.

No matter if the child is aborted, Chang Qing can no longer occupy the holy favor, and miscarriage for some reason, and cannot take care of the harem and need to entrust Nianshen to others, it will be beneficial to her, but these seem nothing, but she can reach behind others and control the people she is in charge to come to Jingren Palace to poison her. This can already show how quickly her power has expanded.

It was already late autumn at this time. The wind outside was blowing the fallen leaves and blew across the wall. You could hear the whimpering sound. Even if there was a stove inside the house, it made people feel a sense of coldness that oozed out of the bottom of their hearts.

As if he felt the coldness of my fingertips, Chang Qing raised her head and looked at me: "What's wrong with you?"

I frowned slightly and said nothing.

For some reason, I have been very upset since she became pregnant.

This is not the first time I have lived like this. Fortunately, I have seen through it every time and spent it without any danger, but I always feel that it doesn’t seem like we have spent it.

Lantana is not a rare species. Even if it is a different species, it can be recognized by those who know the goods.

Such a cover-up technique is really clumsy.

But, what's bad, is it a way to cover up or something else?

Seeing that I was just trance but didn't speak, Chang Qing asked again: "Where did you go just now? I didn't see anyone looking for you."

I smiled and said, "Go out and go."

She glanced at me and said nothing.

Before the concubines and wives came, Pei Yuanhao was with her. These days she had already understood that as long as Pei Yuanhao came to Jingren Palace, I would make excuses to avoid it. She didn't have the heart to ask where to avoid it.

Actually, there is only one place I avoid.

That is, every time Pei Yuanhao stole Jingrengong to accompany her, Nangong Lizhu would go.

Thinking of the child who was not crying and was held in his arms, he would only look at the stunned child with a fool. The old wounds had just healed and the new ones were added. But no matter how he fiddled with him, he would not complain. Maybe it was because he knew that he had nowhere to complain - thinking of this, I gritted my teeth.

"Empress."

"What's up?"

"I am just about to ask the Empress to show her."

"you say."

I whispered: "Since the Yuwen incident before, the medicines in the Imperial Pharmacy are not easy to take. However, the Imperial Pharmacy has been used for the Queen to call them recently, so I want to ask them how many medicines they need."

"What medicine?"

I bent down and whispered a few words in her ear. After hearing this, she turned her head and looked at me: "What are you doing with these?"

I just smiled: "Anyway, these medicines are available to the Queen."

She glanced at me, said nothing, was silent for a moment, and just nodded lightly: "You go."

.

A few days later, the weather became colder and the dark and thick clouds accumulated over the imperial city, as if a heavy stone was pressed on people's hearts, making people feel breathless and suffocating.

After handling some things, I was so tired that I walked back to my room slowly. Madam Wu hurriedly came up to me and helped me sit down. She pinched my fingers, and it felt cold. She said, "I'll go down and let them make a bowl of hot soup."

I nodded.

She looked at my pale face and was a little worried. She wanted to ask someone to guard me, but Shuixiu didn't know where the crazy girl was going. The nanny scolded her and walked out. As soon as she arrived at the door, she bumped into Xiao Fuzi and walked over, then grabbed him and said, "You are here just right, where is that crazy girl?"

When Xiao Fuzi heard this, his face froze and forced apologized, "Madam, look at what you said, she is not in my pocket."

"You guys are all over the world, if you don't have it in your pocket, then you'll be in your boots."

"Oh, Mama, don't make this joke."

Seeing him being beaten by Madam Wu, I laughed and said, "Madam, don't blame him. That girl Shui Xiu is crazy, Xiao Fuzi can't stand it."

The nanny also smiled and said, "It's okay not to fight. You can guard the adults here, so don't be lazy if you serve tea and water."

Xiao Fuzi stood there: "Get order."

She left with confidence.

I sat at the table with a smile, and Xiao Fuzi walked in carefully: "Sir."

I pointed to the opposite side of the table: "Sit."

"I don't dare."

He still stood beside him with a regular attitude, the door was open, but because of this, everything outside was visible, and anyone who approached would be noticed by us at a glance.

"Then you tell me."

He lowered his voice and said, "Yesterday, the emperor did issue an order to allow Lord Nangong to enter the palace and gather with Concubine Li."
