Chapter 89

Gu Liubai gave her a warning look.

He Zhuan panicked and said slowly.

The current emperor has nine sons in total. The eldest prince died young, the second prince was born to a concubine, and the third prince was a stillborn baby in the empress's belly.

The fourth prince was born to concubine Wan, the fifth prince was born to be a fool, the sixth prince was born to Concubine Shu, the seventh and ninth princes were killed by a smallpox, and the other was the eighth prince who was born under the coat slave. Prince.

Among them, Concubine Xian's mother's family is the strongest, and she was born in a wealthy family in the south of the Yangtze River. The second prince under her knees is also the choice of the next prince who is expected by civil and military officials.

In the previous life, the original owner didn't care about these things at all.

"okay, I get it."

He Zhuanfu stepped back, and she found that the empress seemed...to be different.

Not thinking about it as He Wan said, but a feeling of calmly controlling the overall situation.

Backing out the door, he looked up at the bulging bag on the bed, Gu Liubai was lying quietly, not knowing what to think.

It's not much different from the usual way of looking at the distance with only self-pity and self-pity.

I hope she is overthinking.

The empress is still the empress, how can she change at will.

Gu Liubai lay on the bed feeling bored and flustered. There were no entertainment activities in this world, and he really missed his mobile phone in his previous life.

He fumbled for a book on the bedside, only glanced at it twice, and his seriously ill body became groggy again.

Before finishing a page, he was lying on the bed and breathing evenly.

The weather was still sunny during the day, but it started to rain in the evening.

The sound of pattering rain under the eaves was like a cheerful melody, making Gu Liubai slowly open his eyes.

"Harmony?" He called softly.

It was He Sui who came in. She pushed the door in with a candlestick in her hand. She didn't come over immediately, but dried her wet hair with a handkerchief at the door.

"Your Majesty is awake, and it just so happens that Qingman has just finished decocting the medicine." She put the candlestick on the table, turned her head and called Qingman to bring the medicine.

To be drugged as soon as you wake up, what kind of human suffering is this!
Although she was very reluctant, she took the medicine bowl and drank it down.

The decoction became more and more bitter, and the base of Gu Liubai's tongue was numb due to the bitterness, and she vomited out all the medicine she had just swallowed before it fell into her stomach.

Immediately there was an unpleasant smell in the room.

Gu Liubai grabbed He Wan's arm and shook his head: "Sorry, I couldn't hold back for a while." After coughing a few times, Gu Liubai covered his mouth with a handkerchief.

It happened that He Rong also came in, and quickly handed her a glass of water.

After rinsing his mouth, Gu Liubai couldn't bear to look at Hesui's worried face: "Let's make another bowl of that medicine."

"My lady..."

"It's okay." Gu Liubai shook his head, probably because he resisted too much when he took the medicine just now, so the reaction was so strong.

While waiting for the second bowl of medicine, someone knocked on the door in the already locked yard.

"Concubine Hui? Concubine Hui!"

Gu Liubai signaled Qingman to look at it, and a eunuch came in after a while.

The clothes on her body are much better than those of the servants serving in her yard.

"Slave Wang Dexi sees Concubine Hui."

"Get up." Gu Liubai raised his hand.

"I don't know if my father-in-law is visiting late at night, but is there something to do?" After speaking, he hinted at Hesui with his eyes.

A sachet containing silver notes was stuffed into the opponent's hand.

Gu Liubai nodded, since he dared to accept bribes, it meant that it was not a bad thing.

"Concubine Hui, our family is ordered by the emperor to invite you to the Hall of Supreme Harmony."

He squeezed the sachet with his fingers, and his eyebrows and eyes looked satisfied. For the sake of this gift, he added: "Mrs. Ailments, the special servant will take you to the Hall of Supreme Harmony for a talk, where is Doctor Zhang still waiting!"

Gu Liubai looked out the window, there was a lot of raindrops, if he really went to the Hall of Supreme Harmony, he would have to make a lot of trouble.

But this was the emperor's order again, and she had to obey it.

He said kindly: "The emperor's kindness is so great that my concubine dare not refuse, but my father-in-law has also seen it, and the filth all over her body is hard to see the sky, so please wait for a while."

Wang Dexi saw the room clearly under the dim light, and there were large groups of dark brown stains on the light yellow quilt, so he immediately expressed his understanding.

Turning around and following He Wan to the side room, Gu Liubai packed it up within the time for a cup of tea.

In fact, he just changed his clothes and pulled his hair back.

Otherwise, the emperor should be in a hurry after a set of procedures has been implemented.

He was supported by two court ladies and sat on the sedan chair.

Gu Liubai looked at the dark night, the rain covered the sky, only the lanterns shone on the ground, and because of the light refracted by the water, it was full of strange colors.

In addition, the surrounding quiet makes people feel frightened.

During the bumpy journey, Gu Liubai saw the eaves of the Hall of Supreme Harmony. Compared with others, this hall is extraordinarily taller.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Hui has arrived."

Wang Dexi knelt outside the door and shouted loudly, the ground was wet, and the clothes that were clean and tidy just now were filthy.

This is kingship, this is what it feels like to be in charge.

Gu Liubai looked down at him who was kneeling on the ground from a high position, thinking in his mind whether he was going to kneel down soon.

In other words, she could faint in due course.

"Enter."

There is an indescribable depth in the old voice, just like standing in a museum and feeling the clanging of bronzes from thousands of years ago.

The original owner entered the palace as a concubine, and after the death of the emperor, she was promoted to a concubine normally.

Although he is alone, it is better than all people from all walks of life pinning their illusory and misty spirits on the lies of a veteran.

Compared with a life of ups and downs, perhaps such a choice is really happier.

It's a pity that the original owner didn't understand.

The maid supporting her by her side changed, and He Zhuan and He Sui still wanted to follow, but she shook her head and persuaded her to leave.

This is not a place where she can mess around, when she doesn't have authority.

"The concubine sees the emperor." This sentence seemed to have exhausted all her strength, and she couldn't hear it clearly unless she listened carefully.

She had just bent down and knelt down, but just when her knees just touched the floor, she tilted her body, and fell to the ground like a weak willow in the wind.

A flower bloomed from the long skirt on the ground.

"Your Majesty, my concubine has lost her composure, and I ask the Emperor to punish me."

Gu Liubai buried his face in the hem of his skirt, trembling all over his body.

"Get up."

As for the punishment, if the emperor didn't say anything, of course Gu Liubai would not ask stupidly.

Being supported to sit on an armchair, an old man with white hair and silver silk took out the pulse diagnosis from his sleeve pocket and put it on the table.

"Concubine Hui, please also place your wrist on the pulse pillow."

Gu Liubai turned his head to look at the emperor, saw him sitting with his back to the candlestick, his whole body shrouded in a place where light and dark intersected, seemed to notice that Gu Liubai was looking at him, and nodded.

Gu Liubai pulled back his sleeves, revealing his fair and clean wrists.
