Chapter 123 Awakening
At the palace banquet just now, he received an urgent report from the servant, saying that Shang Kelin, the eldest son of Zuo Xiangfu, asked to see him in the imperial study, so Jin Yantang temporarily put aside the palace banquet and came to the imperial study.

Shang Kelin remembered what Shang Kelan said to him in the afternoon, so he truthfully reported the situation in Shu to Jin Yantang, and told that after Wen Quanwu was demoted, he felt hatred and sent the remnant party to ambush them on the road.

He also said that the disaster money was also taken away after he was unconscious, and there were traces of looting at the scene.

When Shang Kelin was speaking, Jin Yantang was thoughtful, and he slowly stroked the white jade finger on his left hand. When Shang Kelin didn't notice, Jin Yantang secretly looked at Shang Kelin several times.

"In short, this disaster relief is a dereliction of duty by this humble minister, and I ask your majesty to come down!"

As Shang Kelin said, he knelt down on one knee and pleaded guilty.

Jin Yantang's eyes flickered slightly, his expression was still as indifferent as before, but he calmly helped him up, and said gently: "I can't blame you for this matter, it's because I didn't think carefully, and didn't send more people to protect you. , Lan'er will also be at the palace banquet later, you and I are in-laws, we should go to the banquet with me, let's go, Brother Lin."

Jin Yantang did not mean to blame Shang Kelin in his words, and his attitude was very gentle, which actually made Shang Kelin feel even more embarrassed for his dereliction of duty.

Therefore, he said guiltily to Jin Yantang: "Your Majesty, I will definitely be responsible for this matter to the end!"

In other matters, he is Jin Yantang's eldest brother; but in matters of government affairs, Jin Yantang is the master and he is the subject, Shang Kelin is very clear about this.

It is also for this reason that Shang Kelin puts Jin Yantang first in all matters of government and treats him with a respectful attitude.

Hearing this, Jin Yantang looked at him calmly and said, "Brother Lin, don't worry, I have my own way, you don't need to worry too much about this matter."

Only then did Shang Kelin heave a sigh of relief, and Jin Yantang said that there is a solution, and there may already be other solutions to the disaster in Shu.

After Jin Yantang let go of him, he turned around, put his hands behind his back, and said: "Besides, the imperial physician in the palace has developed a cure for the plague, and I have sent people to Shu. The plague must have been contained."

After hearing Jin Yantang's words, Shang Kelin breathed a sigh of relief, and said respectfully, "Your Majesty is wise!"

Jin Yantang turned around, looked straight at him, and smiled suddenly: "Follow me to the palace banquet, Lan'er should be here."

Shang Kelin nodded, and made a gesture of invitation to him. After Jin Yantang left, he followed behind Jin Yantang.

Wushi, Xianya Palace.

Dazed, Shang Kelan felt that her chest was short of breath, and her eyelids seemed to be as heavy as a thousand catties. She worked hard for a long time before slowly opening her eyes.

The goal is the lavender gauze and the dim candlelight.

"Great, the empress is awake!"

Suddenly, Gardenia's surprised voice rang in Shang Kelan's ears.

Shang Kelan looked numb, lay motionless on the bed, and asked, "What's wrong with me?"

But as soon as the words came out, even she couldn't help being stunned: What's going on?Why is her voice so hoarse?

It's like the sound of stones scratching on paper, which is disgusting!

Shocked, Shang Kelan sat up abruptly, but her eyes were dark again.

Zhizi quickly poured a glass of water for her to drink, and said worriedly: "Madam, this servant doesn't know what's going on, I only heard some movement in the bedroom, so I opened the door to have a look, who would have known that you are wet all over your body? Lying on the bed, dying, almost shocked the servants!"

Shang Kelan's ears were buzzing, and he couldn't help rubbing the center of his brows with a headache, but found that his fingers were cold, and he didn't feel warm at all.

At this time, Xiaoxia opened the curtain and walked in. Seeing that Shang Kelan had woken up, she quickly said pleasantly: "Great, ma'am, you're awake! Drink a bowl of ginger soup to drive away the cold. You cooked it with brown sugar in it!"

"Let me do it."

Zhizi sat beside Shang Kelan, took the white jade bowl from Xiaoxia, and fed it to Shang Kelan bit by bit with a spoon.

After three spoonfuls, Shang Kelan's body warmed up, and she felt as if she had come alive. Her vision gradually became clear, and she saw the faces of Zhizi and Xiaoxia.

The faces of both of them were full of worry and exhaustion, and it seemed that they had been guarding her here for a long time.

Shang Kelan reluctantly smiled at the two of them, and said in a hoarse voice, "What's wrong with this palace?"

After saying this, Zhizi lowered her head and remained silent, Xiaoxia said angrily: "Sister Zhiqiu said you fell into the water, you are doing well, how did you fall into the water? Someone must have deliberately pushed you down, trying to kill you!"

As she said that, Xiao Xia seemed to have remembered something, looked at Shang Kelan in horror, and said, "What happened, empress, could it be that young man in red who silenced me?"

Unexpectedly, Xiaoxia made a mistake and guessed the right thing.

Zhi Zi immediately raised her face, frowned tightly, and quickly asked while grabbing her hand, "Young man in red? Which young man in red? What silence? Xiaoxia, do you know something?"

Immediately, Xiao Xia hesitated and said with dodge eyes: "I... I don't know anything..."

Zhizi narrowed her eyes slightly, Shang Kelan suddenly spoke out, and said weakly: "Where is there any young man in red? It's just Xiaoxia's nonsense. By the way, has the palace banquet started yet? Is my mother going to attend?" feast?"

Hearing this, Zhi Zi had no choice but to let Xiao Xia go temporarily, and then replied to Shang Kelan: "My Majesty, the palace banquet has just started for half an hour, Madam came to the banquet to see you, but she didn't know You have been grounded, so this servant intends to send Madam out of the palace after the palace banquet is over."

After hearing Zhizi's words, Shang Kelan nodded reassuringly, and said: "Well done, the current appearance of this palace is really not suitable for my mother to see, otherwise she should worry again."

Zhizi sighed, fed her ginger soup with pity, and said: "If the madam and the eldest son see your current appearance, they will really feel sorry for you, and I don't know which villain is so despicable, so he made such a move. You are really worth a thousand dollars for such a nasty thing like entering the water!"

In the end, Zhizi became angry for her.

She is two years older than Shang Kelan, and she has served Shang Kelan since she was a child, but Shang Kelan is different from other daughters. Existence like a sister.

Seeing her suffering in the palace and almost losing her life, not to mention how uncomfortable Zhizi is!

Shang Kelan's eyes dimmed, and after giving Xiaoxia a wink, she signaled her not to speak about the young man in red.

Xiaoxia looked at her nervously and nodded hurriedly.

Only then did Shang Kelan look at Zhizi, puzzled and said: "By the way, do you know who sent me back?"

The person who saved her must have sent her back, but who saved her?
Shang Kelan was very curious. It stands to reason that the man was able to pick her up from the lake, and his skills must not be simple.

And when he called himself, the voice sounded very familiar.

She must know this person!
