Red Mansion Rebirth: Ghost Phoenix

Chapter 342 Don't Seek Death

After coming out of Penglai Palace, Wang Xifeng thought for a while and ordered someone to go to the Imperial Medical Bureau to invite Doctor Zhao, who treated the Queen, and Doctor Kong, who was appointed by the Emperor to take care of Mei Ruoqin's pregnancy, and asked them to go to Qinghui Pavilion together.

Mei Ruoqin's mood was indeed not good.

But it's not too bad.

Fortunately, the emperor, empress and Wang Xifeng took action one after another and helped her to make the house quiet.

Without her parents and family members nagging at her, Mei Ruoqin wanted to go back to being the gentle, virtuous, dignified and kind lady she used to be.

However, after my mother, aunt, and cousin came to cause a scene, Ah Feng and Simiao began to distance themselves from me...

She lay in bed blankly. Nanny Duan, who had recovered from her cold, sat on the footstool at the end of the bed and squeezed Impatiens juice for her, muttering to herself:

"Although you can't go out because you're pregnant, you still have to be energetic, dress up, and study...

"Even if you don't mention that His Majesty likes neat and tidy women, the way Your Majesty is now will determine what the little prince will be like in the future.

"If you, as a mother, continue to be lazy and lose your ambition, then the little prince will also become lazy and unmotivated in the future..."

Mei Ruoqin closed her eyes.

Lazy and unmotivated?

Is this how she is seen by others now?

But His Majesty doesn't allow her to make progress...

As for parents and relatives, it is obvious that the emperor does not want to give them dignity and honor;

As a concubine of the Eastern Palace, I, like Wu's concubine, only got the title of concubine, but I was clearly pregnant with more dragon fetuses than that concubine.

As for the power to assist the six palaces, since Mo was seriously injured and ill at the New Year's Eve banquet, it all fell into Wang's hands.

At that time, I hadn't found out I was pregnant yet!

Not to mention Wang's surroundings, from Jingshun, Jingli to Xia Shouzhong, Chen Duo, as well as Aunt Meng and Nanny Ji;

As for himself, from beginning to end, the invisible eunuch in charge, the housekeeper aunt who was in Cao's camp but her heart was with Han, and Nanny Duan who now only watched over him and did not allow him to go out, all were gone.

She is not even as good as Geng Simiao!

In order to prevent Geng from being bullied, as soon as she entered the Daming Palace and took the list of palace servants, Wang first carefully selected a head maid named Tian for Geng Simiao. She was good at sewing and could train young palace maids and eunuchs...

Thinking of this, Mei Ruoqin's heart moved, she opened her eyes, and tentatively asked Madam Duan:

"My lip balm, the Empress's medicine, and Geng Ronghua's top cabinet, all three of these places contained poison. It's not something that a few traitors from the Ministry of Internal Affairs could have done.

"Mammy, do you know who is behind this?"

Nanny Duan lowered her eyes, put the stone mortar with the flower juice aside, stood up, patted her waist with her hand, and said with a smile:

"I don't know anything that the emperor doesn't teach me."

Mei Ruoqin froze.

If she didn't know, it meant that the emperor didn't want her to know. And if she insisted on asking around for information about something the emperor didn't want her to know, that was disobeying the emperor's order and courting death.

Nanny Duan was reminding her not to be nosy and not to seek trouble.

Mei Ruoqin lowered her head and looked at her fingers: "My nails are a bit long, I'd better cut them a little before dyeing them.

"You're going to be a mother, so don't make it too fancy."

Madam Duan nodded with a smile on her face: "Yes, yes, Concubine Rong is right!"

She called Mei Ran in loudly, "Don't let your name 'Ran' go to waste. Come and dye the queen's nails."

Mei Ran walked in quickly, trying hard to smile at Mei Ruoqin, walked forward carefully, knelt beside the bed, and used the Impatiens juice to dye her nails.

Watching Madam Duan leave, she tried to ask in a low voice, "Should I dye your hair darker or lighter?"

"It's dyed right." Mei Ruoqin said with a cold face and closed her eyes.

Mei Ran bit her lip lightly and had to do her job in silence.

When Wang Xifeng came in with two imperial doctors, she saw this quiet scene:

"Oh, are you asleep?"

"Greetings, Imperial Concubine." Mei Ran hurriedly stood up and bowed, then whispered, "I was tired just now, and said I wanted to close my eyes for a while, but I fell asleep."

It covered up Mei Ruoqin's rudeness of being too lazy to get up.

Wang Xifeng clearly saw the eyelashes of the person on the bed fluttering, and she curled her lips and said, "I've brought the imperial physician here, please wake up your queen first."

After saying this, without standing there to wait for Mei Ruoqin to act, she turned around and went out, smilingly found Nanny Duan, and whispered a few words in her ear.

Nanny Duan agreed with some doubt.

Mei Ran came out and respectfully invited Wang Xifeng and the imperial physician to come in.

"This is Doctor Zhao from the Imperial Hospital. He treated the Empress the other day and was very helpful.

"Let him check you too." Wang Xifeng, who was sitting next to her, nodded with a smile. Without asking Mei Ruoqin's opinion, she directly asked Zhao to come forward and take your pulse.

Behind the gauze curtain, Doctor Zhao lowered his head, knelt down and felt the pulse, pondered for a moment, and bowed to Wang Xifeng and said:

"The fetus of Concubine Rong is stable. She is just a little uneasy. She has not slept well in recent days, so she is sleepy.

"Since you are pregnant, there is no need to take medicine. I will write a few medicinal recipes and have the Imperial Food Bureau submit them carefully.

"Also, although it's hot outside and Concubine Rong is pregnant and prone to heatiness, she should not be too greedy for coolness. It would be bad if she develops diarrhea."

Wang Xifeng nodded and motioned to the old doctor Kong: "Please check on Concubine Rong as well."

Kong Can originally had a bad temper, but after working in the palace for many years, he had tempered it.

He had been quietly instructed by the eunuch beside the imperial concubine before, and only now did he calmly step forward to check Mei Ruoqin's pulse.

"What Imperial Doctor Zhao said is correct." Kong Can's words were shockingly concise.

Wang Xifeng understood and nodded: "That's good. When Doctor Zhao writes out the recipe for medicinal food, you can check it out."

Kong Can twirled his beard and nodded unceremoniously: "Okay."

Doctor Zhao was a little speechless, but when he looked at Old Man Kong's long silver beard, he swallowed back his words of dissatisfaction.

The two imperial doctors left, and Wang Xifeng then relayed Empress Mo's words to Mei Ruoqin:

"Empress Rong is fine and the fetus is stable, so don't lie down every day.

"In the bedroom, the main hall, the corridor of Qinghui Pavilion, and even the imperial garden, Rong Fei can go for a stroll in the morning and evening when the sun is not so strong.

"Madame Duan just wants you to avoid strangers, so as long as you go out when there are fewer people around, it should be fine."

Mei Ruoqin lowered her eyes and said, “I don’t have any capable eunuchs around me, and I’m afraid that if something unexpected happens, it will be too late.

“I will just walk around in the temple and won’t go out.

"My Lady, please thank the Queen on my behalf!"

When Wang Xifeng heard this, she laughed, turned around and called Nanny Duan over and repeated Mei Ruoqin's words.

Then he smiled and said, "This is Concubine Rong's business. I am in the middle of delivering the message, and I am afraid that there will be more unnecessary twists and turns.

"Madame Duan is now Concubine Rong's head maid, so it would be more legitimate for you to go to the Queen to express your gratitude."

After saying this, without waiting for Nanny Duan and Mei Ruoqin to say anything to smooth things over, he stood up and said goodbye.
