Chapter 44 The Girl in Red
"boom!"

After the nuns and the stewards left, Zhi Zi heavily placed the handbook and ledger in her arms on the table of the Eight Immortals.

Shang Kelan sat back on the beauty's couch again, and leisurely ate the grapes in her hand, her peach-blossom eyes were as lively as light.

Seeing that Shang Kelan was still in the mood to eat and didn't seem in a hurry, Zhizi couldn't help saying in a muffled voice: "Madam, those slaves in the Eastern Palace are going too far, what you say is seven parts false and three parts true, hand it over I don’t know how many bad debts are recorded in the ledger given to us!”

As she said that, Zhizi couldn't help showing an indignant look on her face.

Shang Kelan turned her head and glanced at her, then propped her face and said: "They are ordered by villains to act, who in this palace cannot live humblely? You still think there is a third of the truth in their words, but I think They are all lies!"

Zhi Zi was taken aback for a moment, and couldn't help asking in doubt: "Why did your mother say such a thing?"

Shang Kelan didn't even look at the account books and manuals on the table, but squinted his eyes and ate the grapes enjoying himself, and said lightly: "There are many people who make false accounts in the palace. I really think the Queen Mother In a word, will Concubine Ning honestly hand over public power to me?"

"You have also seen what happened today. Concubine Ning deliberately sent a lot of people to this Xianya Palace to quarrel with me. Isn't the purpose just to let me get out of trouble?"

Hearing the words, Zhizi was at a loss for words for a while, lowered her head and stirred the champagne in her hand and said, "Thanks to the fact that I was so lucky before, I thought that my mother's hard life would come to an end, but I didn't expect that I am so naive!"

Zhizi only cared about feeling uncomfortable, but at some point Kelan came in front of her, rubbed her face and said, "Zhizi, you can't be too honest, otherwise you will be played around by others, isn't it Gongquan? Is there anything I can't take back?"

As he said that, Shang Kelan blinked at Zhizi, with a sly gleam in his eyes.

Seeing Shang Kelan's appearance like this, Zhizi knew that she must have made up her mind, so she was slightly relieved, and said with a sigh of relief: "Your Majesty is always smart, if you need help, just ask your Majesty to do it." yes!"

Only then did Shang Kelan withdrew her hand from her face, and said with satisfaction: "Well, this is what the maid in charge of this palace should look like!"

It turns out that from beginning to end, her mother is the one who sees the most clearly!
Zhizi couldn't help but blush every time she thought of her kind words to Shang Kelan.

At this time, Xiao Xia opened the bead curtain and walked in, followed by Wen Chun, Zhi Qiu, and Wan Dong, each holding a stack of ledgers in their arms.

These account books and manuals are the expenses of the East Palace in the past three years. There is no need to record so many account books, but Concubine Ning does not know how to do it, so that the nuns and managers have made so many useless things. something comes out.

Seeing that Xiaoxia and the others were tired from holding them, Shang Kelan said, "Just put these things in the cabinet, remember to put some camphor in, so as not to get rats."

"Yes!"

After the four people agreed, they started to move one after another, Zhi Zi also joined them, and Shang Kelan lay down on the beauty couch again.

Looking at the scorching sun outside the window and listening to the chirping of cicadas in midsummer, she couldn't help closing her eyes comfortably and slowly fell asleep.

At the same time, in the moon palace.

In the dormitory, Concubine Ning put on a white coat and lay on the sickbed. She wore a forehead wipe on her head. Her face was very pale. Even though there were ice cubes in the room, dense pimples still appeared on her forehead. cold sweat.

Lu Xiang came in with a pot of hot water, wiped the sweat from her forehead with her sleeve, then wrung out the handkerchief in her hand, and wiped Concubine Ning's face.

Seeing Concubine Ning's delicate willow eyebrows tightly frowned, and the room was still filled with a faint smell of blood, Luxiang couldn't help but looked at Concubine Ning worriedly and said: "Mother, your body is too weak, I will go to the imperial hospital to give you a handbag. Ask for a doctor!"

With that said, Lvxiang was about to get up.

But as soon as she moved, Concubine Ning's hand held her tightly, and then Concubine Ning looked at her in pain and said, "Go...go call Li Chenxiu...Emperor Li..."

After finishing speaking, Concubine Ning weakly let go of her hand, her breathing became extremely light.

Although Lvxiang panicked, she still knew that she should not publicize this matter loudly.

She quickly nodded to Concubine Ning and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, this servant will invite Imperial Doctor Li over here!"

As soon as the words fell, Lvxiang opened the curtain and went out, attracting a maid who whispered a few words in her ear, and the maid hurriedly retreated, looking at the direction she was leaving, it happened to be Tai Hospital.

It was almost noon, and in the imperial hospital, the scorching sun was scorching the ground like a fire. Fortunately, ice cubes were placed here to prevent the medicinal materials from rotting, and the imperial physicians also enjoyed the coolness.

Li Chenxiu was dressed in white cloth, with a medicine box with mahogany and golden locks hanging on his waist, and he was dripping with sweat.

Seeing him, the court attendant in the same room couldn't help but looked at him curiously and said, "Brother Li, you just came back from Xinzheku?"

Hearing that Tweety'er died, Li Chenxiu rushed to Xinzheku. He wanted to see how Tweety'er died, but he was blocked outside and was pestered by Xinzheku's maidservants to see a doctor.

He has been busy until now, and he has time to go back to the Tai Hospital to catch his breath.

Hearing what the courtyard attendant said, he smiled wryly and shook his head, saying: "Don't mention it, if it's hot today, there are too many people suffering from heatstroke, so be careful, remember to soak the honeysuckle flowers I gave you and drink them on time."

"Hey, thank you Brother Li, your honeysuckle is really effective. Once I eat it, I feel more energetic!"

The two were talking, when suddenly, a maid in a light green palace uniform barged in from outside the door.

Li Chenxiu stared blankly, thinking: Isn't this the maid in Yan'er Palace?

So, Li Chenxiu smiled and said to the court attendant: "I remembered that I have dried some herbs in my room, go and see if you can use them, choose some first, it's hot summer, Neither is easy."

The court attendant had a happy face, and thanked Li Chenxiu gratefully, then turned and left.

Not long after he dismissed the person, the palace maid came up quickly and whispered in his ear: "Your Majesty, something happened, go and have a look!"

Something happened to Yan'er?

Li Chenxiu has not been able to visit her in Lanyue Palace for the past few days. He never thought that Yan'er would fall ill again after he was not around Yan'er for just a moment!

At that moment, Li Chenxiu's expression froze, and he hurriedly said, "Hurry up, lead the way!"

The palace maid didn't dare to be negligent, and hurriedly led Li Chenxiu to Lanyue Palace from a bluestone path with few people.

In the moon palace.

In Concubine Ning's bedroom, Lvxiang guarded Concubine Ning every step of the way, her face was full of anxiety, and she only prayed in her heart that nothing would happen to Concubine Ning!
"Aunt Luxiang, Imperial Physician Li is here!"

The maid outside the door spoke, and lifted the curtain to let Li Chenxiu walk in.

However, Lvxiang seemed to hear the sound of nature, and quickly got up to look at Li Chenxiu, but saw Li Chenxiu came to Concubine Ning's sick bed in three steps and two steps, stretched out his hand to feel her pulse, and didn't care about the relationship between men and women for a moment do not!
Lvxiang hurriedly closed the window and closed the door, then came to Li Chenxiu's side and asked, "Princess Li, how is your majesty?"
