Rebirth Palace Chaos

Chapter 83

On this day, Su Yan was lying quietly on the bed, and the smell of moxibustion medicine could still be faintly smelled in the inner room. Huo Yu was lightly arranging the medicine box, and stared at it through the curtain.

Ruyu's side face can be vaguely seen, and the shadow of Ziling quilt undulates slightly.

Someone coughed lightly outside the door, and Sang Yu came in to bless her body, "If Mr. Huo didn't give orders, the empress will have to rest, please move."

Huo Yu said casually, "I dare to ask, originally, the mother's body has improved, and her fetal gas has gradually stabilized, why did it happen again recently?"

Sang Yu frowned and replied, "Maybe it's because of the cold weather. Mr. Laohuo bothered, and the servant also said something. Whenever you leave the gate of Yilan Palace, Mr. Huo will only check the pulse for your mother, and nothing else will be done." .”

Huo Yu nodded, but was about to retreat when Su Yan stopped him, "Apart from this palace, which other palaces does Imperial Physician Huo go to ask for pulse?"

"Originally the emperor entrusted me to take care of my mother's body, but recently the imperial hospital is understaffed, and the imperial doctor ordered to report the sick, and the minister is also in charge of the pulse of Han Jieyu and Zhen Cairen."

Hearing Lin Qingqing's name, Su Yan couldn't help thinking for a while, thinking of her and An Le's warning that day, she clearly felt that something was wrong, but couldn't figure it out.

"Well, Sister Lin is in good health recently. Does Dr. Huo see anyone else when he visits Yaolian Hall every day?" Su Yan lifted a corner of the curtain and asked tentatively.

Huo Yu raised his head and looked at her, and was swept away by the tender and watery eyes, his heart was swayed, and he blurted out, "I haven't seen anyone else, Princess Anle is healthy, and everything is safe as usual." At this point, he suddenly seemed to be Thinking of something, he said, "Cui Shangyi approached Wei Chen a few days ago."

A trace of doubt crept up in her heart, Su Yan asked, "What is she asking you for?"

"That's not true, it's just that she caught the wind and cold by accident, so she asked the minister for a few medicines."

Just as she was talking, Lan Ruo walked in quickly like a gust of wind, "Miss Hui, Han Jieyu brought Princess Anle to visit."

"Let's just say that I took the medicine and went to bed, didn't see any guests, and taught Lufu to go to the backyard to dispose of the incense ash carefully. Remember to be neat with your hands and feet, and then put the red sandalwood incense on it." Su Yan said in a cold voice, waving her hands to signal Huo Yu come over.

But seeing her sticking out a brocade handkerchief and sticking it to Huo Yu's ear, "Since Aunt Cui is not feeling well, you should take care of her from time to time, and by the way, dye this fragrance powder on the lapel of her clothes, it can cure illness and eliminate misfortunes."

Huo Yu was puzzled, took the powder box to his nose and sniffed it. After thinking over and over again, he had an epiphany. He obviously understood Su Yan's plan to push the boat along.

Sang Yu led Huo Yu away through the back door.

She has long been estranged from Lin Qingqing, and the sisterhood is just superficial. Su Yan never believed that Lin Qingqing would be so careless to remind her to pay attention to Cui Shangyi?
Su Yan caressed Weilong's belly subconsciously. The young life had already had the first fetal movement, and all the entanglements and concerns were answered in the violent beating of the fetus that night. No matter what, she will do her best to protect her child .

A soft voice suddenly resounded, changing Su Yan's thoughts back, and when the curtain was lifted, it was Lin Qingqing's face.

Lan Ruo followed closely, with a troubled expression on her face, and Su Yan knew that she was determined to come. Although Lin Qingqing was gentle, she was very stubborn. If she decided on something, she would never change it.

She had to gather her energy to deal with it, the two of them said some irrelevant things, Su Yan looked at the face that was very similar to her previous life, and the well-behaved An Le, and suddenly felt that she was scheming, and she was living a life of deception Among the rumors and lies, only close relatives of flesh and blood are the final destination, and honor, favor and wealth are but passing clouds.

Thinking of this, I can't help feeling a little sad.

An Le had just learned how to walk, and was very naughty. Seeing her running to the backyard, Sang Yu hurriedly called her back under the pretext of Feng Da, and taught Lan Ruo to bring her some fruit, so An Le was able to live.

Before leaving, Lin Qingqing casually asked her what kind of incense was lit in the hall. The smell was a little strange, not often smelled, but it was like medicinal incense.

Su Yan smiled innocently, and only said that since she was pregnant, the emperor has rewarded many red sandalwood ideas, and the others are afraid of being too aggressive, so they are not allowed to use them.

Bowing her head through the silky pajamas, she stroked her round belly a few times. Su Yanzhen raised her head slightly, "My sister said that she smelled the medicine. Could it be that she hopes that the child in my stomach is okay?"

Stared at by the compelling eyes, Lin Qingqing quickly explained, "Yan'er, you are overthinking, I just asked casually, the child will be safe and sound."

Su Yan just smiled and said nothing.

After Lin Qingqing left, Sang Yu checked it carefully, and finally settled down after confirming that it was safe.

After a few snowfalls in the capital, the frost flowers rolled up the branches inch by inch, covering the entire bustling smoke.

The ancient pines on the Autumn Grass Terrace are so handsome that the young lords and maids in the palace were happy to pick some off, put the pine branches in vases, and put them indoors to add elegance.

If you are making flowers and plants, I am afraid that the ladies in each palace have their own particulars. Apart from the decoration of the facade, plants are also a symbol of status.

For example, golden thread can only be planted in the Kunyuan Hall, while other rare flowers such as ylang-ylang and laurel crabapple can be planted in the hall according to their position, and three kinds can be planted in the hall if they are above the third rank, and two types can be planted at the fifth rank or above. , female officials can only raise one kind.

It is the peony of the queen among the flowers, which is unique to Yilan Palace. There are many varieties such as Yuyi Huang and Guanshi Moyu. The most precious one is the Kunshan Night Light, which is known as the "Queen's Phoenix Crown" by the emperor, which is as white as snow.

It is in the depths of winter, and although the flower buds have withered, there is something strange about this Kunshan night light. Over there are the seed sacs after the flowers have fallen, which have a unique fragrance, which is refreshing and moving.

Su Yan specially taught Huo Yu to check it, and decided that it would be harmless to the fetus, so she stayed.

Forty-nine days have passed since the Empress Dowager's funeral, and affairs in the palace are gradually recovering, but no large-scale singing and dancing banquets are allowed.

A letter came from Su Fu at home, teaching Su Yan to be extra careful, serve her wholeheartedly, and make no mistakes.

Su Yan understood that Su Fu and Duan Zhaoling had some disagreements over the matter of the imperial court's trafficking of copper and iron from the Western Regions to fill the arsenal. In the end, it was handed over to the chief censor of the Ministry of Officials. The power of the Ministry of War was temporarily handed over to the new Jin Youpu She Shangguandao as an agent.

Shangguandao is none other than the father of Lan Xiaoyi, Shangguanyu, who is now pregnant with her.

Duan Zhaoling's punishment and reward showed his intentions, so Su Fu was worried that his daughter's status in the harem would be implicated.

Outside the gate of Kunyuan Hall, Su Yan straightened her temples, her splendid palace attire was extraordinarily bright, in front of everyone, she could only be Rui Zhaoyi who loved the harem most.

The emperor and King Changle were discussing matters in the hall, so she had to wait outside for a while.

When I was bored, I suddenly heard a few words from the inner room.

"When the Empress Mother died of illness, you were the first to arrive. Have you ever seen anyone visiting?"

"Brother, what questions do you have?"

"I heard that Rui Zhaoyi happened to be in the Palace of Compassion and Ning that day."

At this moment, there was silence all around, and the dialogue was heard clearly in Su Yan's ears.

After a long time, Changle King replied in a deep voice, "No."

never...

Su Yan moved her body and sneered, it seemed that Duan Zhaoling still cared about it after all, and her doubts never disappeared.

When she entered the hall, it was obvious that the two of them had still finished their conversation. Duan Zhaoling gently greeted Su Yan to sit with him while holding hands, on the surface he seemed to be very fond of Su Yan.

But the warmth in the palm of his hand could not match the coldness in his heart after all.

Such deep thoughts gave Su Yan a chill down her spine for a while.

King Changle entered the door from her, and never looked at each other directly, until Duan Zhaoling suddenly asked if Su Yan's birthday was approaching, he cast his gaze, which was also deep.

It was rare for Su Yan to decline gently, only saying that the Empress Dowager's funeral is not long and it is not appropriate to hold a banquet.

Cui Shangyi, who was at the side, suddenly said, "Return to Your Majesty, the slaves have always known that according to the ancestral system, the empress dowager's funeral period has passed for more than a month, and Xiaoqing's birthday would not have passed if it hadn't been for wanton singing and dancing."

Duan Zhaoling thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement, "Mingzhu is careful, what she said is very true," he turned to Su Yan again, "Besides, my mother valued you very much when she was alive. Last year, I was out of the palace for inspection, and I already delayed you once. This year, I have to make up for it. superior."

"The concubine does not want to disappoint the empress dowager's pity during her lifetime, and I hope your majesty will learn from her." Su Yan could see the unusual meaning from Cui Shangyi's face.

She is a calm person, and she will never talk too much for no reason. What is her plan?
Duan Zhaoling held her hand tightly, and said solemnly, "After your birthday, I will choose an auspicious day, and issue an imperial edict to make you a noble concubine to the world."

As soon as these words came out, several people were stunned, Su Yan's mind turned around and she hurriedly got down to pray, with a panicked expression, "I am ashamed to accept..."

Duan Zhaoling helped her up, "I had intended this a long time ago, but I have wronged you by asking you to wait for so long."

Su Yan's soft eyes were watery, full of passion, and she answered half angry, "Yan'er has always understood Duan Lang's heart."

After saying that, he quickly covered his mouth and said softly, "Yan'er accidentally called out her private address, it is really inappropriate, Your Majesty forgive me."

Duan Zhaoling smiled, and hugged her, "There is no outsider here."

The corners of Changle King's lips rose, "In this way, I will congratulate the emperor brother and the future imperial concubine."

How could Su Yan fail to hear the voice behind her words?When she turned her head, Cui Shangyi's expression was also uncertain, and the indifference she had just now was gone.

"In previous years, birthday banquets were held in Luoying Hall, but this year it is not appropriate to be extravagant."

Cui Shangyi quickly accepted Duan Zhaoling's words, "I have a countermeasure." After getting the acquiescence of Duan Zhaoling's eyes, she said very considerately, "It's better to choose Rui Zhaoyi's Yilan Palace to hold it. Friendship can also teach everyone to appreciate the style of Yilan Palace."

"I just found out today that Aunt Cui cares so much about Rui Zhaoyi." Changle King suddenly interjected.

"The servants are just doing their duty to serve His Majesty and Empress."

Duan Zhaoling coughed heavily, Cui Shangyi quickly fetched the pill, Su Yan cut it off with her hand, and gave her a deep look, "Let me serve Your Majesty."

The birthday party was still held as scheduled.

But since Duan Zhaoling is willing, she is naturally happy to enjoy his favor. In the harem, being able to make public is also an extraordinary skill.

The singing and dancing are simple, but the small kitchen is ordered to cook exquisite delicacies and treats, and the atmosphere is very harmonious.

During the banquet, I saw An Le naughty, running around, Lin Qingqing couldn't take care of her, so Cui Shangyi volunteered to take care of her.

The child was excited and ran to the inner hall after a while, and Cui Shangyi hurriedly chased her into the inner hall.

Su Yan was about to stand up, when Xie Baolin brought rice wine to congratulate her, and happened to interrupt her movement.
