The hot spoon was attached to his lips again, he slightly opened his lips and drank all the soup in the spoon, and then there was a veil to wipe off the soup from the corners of his lips, Xiao Xizi secretly looked at it Looking at that interaction, he couldn't help but think of his bright road of becoming a great eunuch for a moment.

Compared to Xiaoxizi's joy, Xia seemed a little worried.After he was injured this time, His Majesty changed from usual and took good care of him, and would come to him twice a day.When he became nice to him for no reason, he became more and more uneasy, and he would always involuntarily speculate about his intentions.It's like Master Li said, if a person treats you well for no reason, if he wants not to obediently fall into it, he should keep within a certain boundary.

Ling Yuancheng handed the bowl with only the soup base to Xiao Xizi, "Go to the imperial hospital and ask the imperial doctor to prescribe some more warming and tonic medicines."

"No." Xiao Xizi replied overjoyed, and secretly glanced at Wei Yan who had been bowing his head, and found that Wei Yan was the same as when he first arrived. One of the necessary conditions?

"Your Majesty..." He wanted to say that he didn't need tonic, but he swallowed the words in a daze. He was just a petite boy. It seemed that he had no right to refuse what His Majesty said.

His hand brushed the end of his eyes, "What?" It was obviously a gentle tone, but why did he only hear the bone-chilling coldness?He lowered his head and didn't dare to say more, listening to the other person's breath falling on his cheek, "You rest first, and drink the medicine prescribed by the imperial physician in a while, I have to go back to the palace first."

"En." Xia nodded several times in a row, making Ling Yuancheng laugh out loud, "I'll come see you again at night, and have a good rest."

He was stunned by the gentle palm, and when he came back to his senses, Xiao Xizi had already returned, chattering and beaming all the time, "My lord, do you know how many warming and tonic medicines the imperial doctor prescribed for you? It's the best, and even Concubine Lan didn't have this kind of courtesy at the time." After speaking, she realized something was wrong, Xiao Xizi quickly covered her mouth, and finally stroked her chest, and said with a look of luck: "Young master, Fortunately, Your Majesty didn't arrange more people for you, otherwise this servant would be dragged to Eunuch Wei."

Touching the scabbed wound, the soles of her feet couldn't help but feel cold, Xiao Xizi didn't notice Xia's abnormality, and said thoughtfully: "But don't you think that Concubine Lan is very pitiful? Before you entered the palace At that time, Concubine Lan was the most favored concubine, and she was the only concubine who was granted a rank. She had been favored for a long time, but her majesty changed her mind when she said that she changed her mind. Back then, the slave thought that his life with you was over, Thinking about it now, it might still be the slave's blessing. Son, don't worry, if you rely on your slave to become a great eunuch in the future, the slave will protect you even if you die, and will definitely not be like the maid of Concubine Lan. "

Concubine Lan... the most beautiful woman in the palace that Xiao Xizi said was stabbing him, and the injury was not serious, but Concubine Lan was deprived of her title by His Majesty and thrown into the cold palace because of this.Concubine Lan committed suicide by jumping into a well that day when others were too late to cry, and what makes Concubine Lan feel desolate is that her maid actually made trouble after her death, revealing that she had disclosed news from the palace to herself many times father, and also prescribed medicine to the queen mother, so that the queen mother was injured and became ill.

Whether this is the case, he doesn't know, and it has nothing to do with him, but Concubine Lan just committed suicide, His Majesty immediately ordered that Concubine Lan's whole family be executed, every time he thought about it, he was horrified .

"Xiao Xizi, do you think... I will end up like this in the future?" No, maybe he will be better, because he has no relatives and no reason.

Xiao Xizi's eyes widened, "My lord, don't talk nonsense, although I'm not sure how long you'll be favored, but as long as you don't make any mistakes, I'm sure you'll be able to live here in the end."

is it?

"My lord, what I'm going to say now may be a bit outrageous, but I still hope you can listen to it." He could imagine that Li Chong said to him with a stern face at that time: "Your Majesty will not be nice to a person without words or reasons, and even more so." Wouldn't you take off one of the Prime Minister's left and right arms for a male pet without a reason, "Concubine Lan's father is the prime minister's confidant, does anyone in Ling know that? "It's not that I don't believe in your son, but I have seen too many concubines who are favored and arrogant. You were so beautiful at the time, and it was so painful when you fell. I hope you will remain the original. "

Although he only knows a few big characters, he still understands what Master Li said. In short, the fate of Concubine Lan is a lesson from others.

Seeing Xia's lonely face, Xiao Xizi put away the medicinal materials in her hands, and after a while she remembered something Xia would be interested in saying, "My lord, I forgot to tell you that the plague in Qin Yucheng was cured by Dr. Mu and the imperial physician." Now, the envoy will return to the court on another day."

"Really?" He originally thought that Qin Jue really couldn't keep it this time.He believed in Dr. Mu's ability, but it was rare for the plague to develop an antidote, so he was always worried. "Then the Eighth Prince and Doctor Mu are alright?"

Eighth Prince!It's that Eighth Prince again!Xiao Xizi pursed her lips and replied: "It should be fine, if the Eighth Prince has something to do, how can the palace be so deserted?"

"That's good."

In Jinlan Palace, Mu He helped the queen mother clean her body and changed a new underwear for the queen mother. Seeing that the queen mother who was still awake was getting older, she couldn't help but feel sad, "Queen mother, wake up quickly, you are not Do you really miss the Eighth Prince? The Eighth Prince is going back to court and will arrive in the capital in two days, so you must wake up."

Maybe it was Mu He's words that rekindled the Queen Mother's hope. In the middle of the night, the Queen Mother uttered a weak voice, Mu He's eyes that were about to close, who were lying on the side, immediately became sober after hearing the voice. , hurriedly grabbed the Queen Mother's hand, "Queen Mother, are you awake?"

"Qi Er...Qi Er..."

"Prince doctor, hurry up to send the message to the doctor, the queen mother is awake!" While wiping away tears, she eagerly ordered the maid who was watching the night outside to call the doctor.

Mu He looked at the imperial doctor nervously and didn't speak for a long time, her hand was on the veins all the time, "Doctor, could it be that the queen mother...?" No, no, how could she think of that.

The imperial physician put the Queen Mother's hand back on the brocade quilt, and wrote a prescription silently, "You will send someone to the pharmacy to get the medicine later, wake up the Queen Mother in the morning to drink the medicine, three times a day, for five consecutive days."

Mu He grabbed the hem of the imperial physician's body as he was about to leave, "Emperor physician, queen mother...she's fine, isn't she?"

The imperial physician gave her a suspicious look, "We still need to observe." After leaving four words, he pulled away Mu He's hand and left with the medicine box on his back.

I still need to...observe...what does this mean?

Wei Yan hurried to Fenglan Palace and knocked on one of the doors. Hearing the sensational voice inside, he frowned almost invisible. He dared not speak until he recovered his normal expression: " Your Majesty, the slave has something to report."

After a muffled sound and screams, the door was slammed open not long after, and Wei Yan watched coldly the naked man took a piece of clothing to cover his lower body, with panicked expressions in his panic. His eyes glanced at him, and after an angry look at him, he ran away suddenly, but unfortunately those two legs didn't show face, and after a "hiss" in embarrassment, he limped away, and his buttocks were under the night light. The traces are not obvious.

"Don't come in yet?"

Wei Yan didn't dare to delay any longer, and immediately entered the room and closed the door, calmly looking at the scattered clothes on the ground and the smell of musk, "Your Majesty, the imperial physician has come to report that the Empress Dowager has woken up." He looked up at the emperor who did not cover his body , I saw the emperor frowned slightly, and said in a cold voice: "How is the situation?"

"The imperial doctor said that the queen mother's health may not be good."

"Not good? What kind of bad method?"

"The imperial doctor said that the Queen Mother's body has been injured too deeply during this period, and the situation may not be good after winter."

Ling Yuancheng stayed on the bed, Wei Yan picked up the black robe on the ground, and after putting it on Ling Yuancheng, he heard the emperor above say coldly: "Order the imperial doctor to protect the queen mother well, and if something happens to the queen mother before the spring of next year, let him Prepare well for the funeral of the whole family."

"promise."

"Get rid of that male pet."

For some reason, Wei Yan thought of the look in the eyes of the male favorite when he ran away, probably saying that after I am favored, you will not have a good life.Probably he would never have imagined that when he was favored, he was doomed to die, "No."

Three days later, the Eighth Prince returned to the capital with only two-thirds of the remaining soldiers. He was very indifferent to the cheers of the people on the road, and he did not speak or smile the whole time, but the enthusiasm of those people remained undiminished.

The queen mother dragged her frail body to the top of the tower. Like last time, she fell on Mu He, her face so pale that anyone with a discerning eye could tell her physical condition.

The gate tower could see the team slowly approaching the gate tower from a distance, the queen mother covered her mouth, "Mu He, did you see that? Qi'er from the Ai family...is back."

After panting heavily, Mu He could clearly feel that the Empress Dowager's body was getting weaker.The queen mother has always been in good health, but she has been defeated so quickly this year that she was caught off guard.

"Mother, if you are not feeling well, go back to the palace first. I will let the eighth brother go to Jinlan Palace to see you first when he returns to the palace."

"Ahem," Jinpa covered his cough, and looked at Ling Yuancheng with undisguised hatred, "Don't bother Your Majesty to be concerned, isn't it your Majesty who made this happen to the family?"

Mu He lowered her head silently, not daring to look at His Majesty's face. After a while, the voices below the city tower became more and more enthusiastic, and she heard His Majesty say in a neutral voice: "In the eyes of the Queen Mother, I have always Is it all that bad?"

Mu He felt that His Majesty was still saying silently, 'Since this is the case, why should I pretend to hate you? ', everyone in the palace knows that the queen mother is biased. At that time, it was only the fifth prince who was ridiculed everywhere in the palace. The queen mother, who was still the queen, didn't pay much attention to it, allowing the second prince to bully the fifth prince. Later, after the birth of the eighth prince, he was completely different. Well, just because that male pet kicked the Eighth Prince, the Queen Mother spent three full years pulling that male favorite down, and even made that male favorite suffer the death penalty.

"The Ai family is not in the mood to argue with you today. Your Majesty, Qi Er is your younger brother. The Ai family only hopes that you will always remember this sentence."

The corners of Ling Yuancheng's lips twitched lightly, his cold eyes looked down, and he saw Ling Qi riding a horse past the city wall.
