Chapter 168 Returning to the Palace
Mu Xiang opened the curtain, revealing Ruan Yuyi's figure inside, she was sleeping peacefully.Mu Xiang's hand stopped, and her voice suddenly stopped—she didn't dare to call anymore, she was afraid that she wouldn't get a response.

In winter, people are greedy for warmth and the charcoal fire is overheated, so people who died in their sleep are not alone.But she knew that Miss would be fine.

She stabilized her mind, and ordered the maidservant at the side to invite Imperial Physician Ning.

The little palace maid did not dare to neglect, and hurriedly walked away.

Mu Xiang wiped her eyes fiercely, stood up, and said softly, "My lord, this servant will prepare something for you to wash up." She walked out a few steps slowly, her complexion was normal, but the trembling of her fingertips revealed her state of mind.

Suddenly, a few weak coughs came from behind, "Mu Xiang, wait for me to change my clothes first."

Mu Xiang's feet froze, she turned around, her eyes were red, "Miss—" she called Qi Qiran, Ruan Yuyi's heart tightened slightly, she stood up and hugged her.

"What's the matter, why are you crying so early in the morning?" Ruan Yuyi said softly, without saying a word, she frowned, supported her head, and gasped slightly, "I have a severe headache today."

There was a sudden pain in her head, as if something was stirring in it.

Mu Xiang blamed herself for being more cranky than Mu Ling, and secretly spat at herself.She straightened her expression, and hurriedly said, "Physician Ning will be here in a while, and the young master will lie down for a while."

"Go and close the window." She hid in the brocade quilt.

Mu Xiang didn't do as she said, but knelt down and bowed her head, with a firm tone, "Miss, please punish me, I didn't notice for a while, the charcoal fire burned too much yesterday, and the ventilation is not enough—" Before she could say a word, she suddenly stopped .

No, she clearly remembered reducing the charcoal fire before going out.

Ruan Yuyi leaned out and gave her a little help, "I know you are always careful. Did someone else come in yesterday?"

Mu Xiang raised her eyelids, her eyes flickered, and she immediately got up to check the windows of the inner room.She looked repeatedly, but found no signs of prying. She turned her head and shook her head at Ruan Yuyi.

"It's outside."

The main room and the inner room are separated by a soft curtain, so there is no need to check.Mu Xiang really found an inexplicable scratch on the outer door, which seemed to be a trace of a long and thin object like a hairpin protruding in to pick apart the door hinge.

With a sullen face, she walked into the inner room with her head down, and told Ruan Yuyi about this matter.

After listening, she was silent for a few moments, "Report this matter to Your Majesty." It is the most appropriate for him to deal with it directly. It would be easier for her to come by herself.

"Your Majesty returned to the palace yesterday." Mu Xiang paused, "Miss, something happened to Concubine Shu."

She was startled, and asked anxiously, "What do you mean?" Concubine Shu occupies a high position and holds great power, and her mother's family is a noble family, so she cannot be easily shaken, what could happen, and who would dare to harm her?
Thinking of this, her heart sank suddenly.No one else can touch Concubine Shu—what if he?
Mu Xiang called in the maidservant next to Concubine Shu.The maidservant in the palace had already wiped away her tears at this moment, she looked decent, kowtowed and said, "My maidservant has seen the young master, I beg the young master to save our empress!"

She recounted what Mu Xiang had said.

As Ruan Yuyi listened, her bare hands on the brocade quilt gradually tightened, and her fingertips turned white.She said in a deep voice, "We will also go back to the palace." She lifted the quilt, showed a pair of feet as white as jade, and was about to stay on the bed.

As soon as Fang touched the ground, he felt darkness in front of his eyes, and the surrounding was silent for a moment.She didn't know whose forearm was on her, and it took a while before she recovered.

Slowly opened her eyes, and Mu Xiang's anxious voice came to her ears, "Doctor Ning, come and take a look." She was covered with a coat.

The man with a thin figure had a calm face, but he stepped forward in three steps at a time. He asked about the situation carefully and did not dare to neglect.

After the interrogation and taking the pulse, she held her lips and smiled lightly, a little embarrassed.For the sake of this, Imperial Physician Ning should have had less work than those little medical officers, so I'm afraid that all of them are going to her these days.

Ning He also felt sorry for Ruan Jieyu who was always sick, wanted to sigh, but thought about it and swallowed it back in front of the master, and said some comforting words.

He also instructed, "Too many medicines will hurt the body, so the next official will not prescribe it. The girl will cook a bowl of radish soup for your little master at that time, and he will recover within a few days."

"That's all?" Mu Xiang wondered.

"Yes."

She breathed a sigh of relief, and sent Imperial Physician Ning out of the courtyard, and then waited for the young lady to wash and change her clothes.Ruan Yuyi didn't bother to make up any more, she just put her hair back on, and ordered the horses to be prepared.

The little palace maid saw her thoughts on behalf of her mother, and thanked her gratefully.

The car was light and fast, and Ruan Yuyi and the others returned to the palace in a short time.

She intended to go directly to Chonghua Palace to find out the situation, but Mu Xiang insisted that she go back to Mei Xuan to rest and eat carrot soup before going.

"Concubine Shu treats the young master well, and the servants can see it. But the young master is the master of the servants. Compared with Concubine Shu, the servants are more worried about your body." She did not hide her selfishness, and her brows were furrowed. worry.

Ruan Yuyi didn't want to confront her, she looked in the direction of Chonghua Palace, and was about to say something.

The little palace maid pursed her lips, and also persuaded, "Your Majesty should not be in danger for her life for the time being, and the young master must not spare her own body, that is certainly not what your Majesty wants to see."

She just let go.

Arriving at Luomeixuan, she was seated, and Mu Xiang went to simmer the soup non-stop.

She sipped warm tea to get rid of the cold, with a stove in her sleeves, but her thoughts drifted away.

There was a knock on the door, three light and one heavy, very polite.She glanced towards the door and called for someone to come in.But he wondered in his heart, when did this girl Mu Ling become so stable.

The person who was supposed to take turns to serve him was nowhere to be seen. The one who bowed his head was a handsome eunuch, dressed in brocade clothes, walking steadily and calmly.

He saluted respectfully, "Ruan Jieyu Jin'an, your servant Cen Li was sent by His Majesty to serve the young master."

Her hand on the sleeve stove slightly tightened, "I called the wood spirit." She looked down at her with some repulsion.She knew that these were his eyes and ears blatantly planted beside her.

Cen Li explained in a low voice, "Your Majesty ordered to remove a big court lady next to the young master, and let the slave take her place."

This is just superficial talk, he overheard it by chance, and said that there was something wrong with the maidservant, and that His Majesty was thinking of her past friendship with Ruan Jieyu, so he directly transferred her away in fear that Ruan Jieyu would not be willing, so he left her alone and opened her eyes. Close one eye.

"What's your Majesty's meaning?" She had frost and snow between her brows, and she dug her fingertips into the hollow decoration on the furnace cover, and she didn't feel the burning of her fingertips.

Naturally, Cen Li didn't want to tell her these things, so he just said, "The ranks in the palace are strict, and as a young master, there can only be two close servants. The young master doesn't need to be intimidated, and slaves are not considered." man."

He seemed to be saying that if she wanted the wood spirit to come back, she should know how to do it.

It is not uncommon for there to be many eunuchs in the palace who wait on the concubines to change clothes and bathe.

He is like a puppet, if Ruan Yuyi asks a question, he will answer.
