Chapter 224: The belts are getting wider and finally do not regret (2)
I nodded, thinking of Xuan'er's painful appearance, my eyes were wet.
"Very serious?" Shen Xiyao suddenly became anxious when seeing me cry.
I sighed and said, "Fortunately, the imperial doctor has found out the cause of the disease. Several nurses are in the Department of Shenxing, and there is no reply yet."
"Sheng Xingsi?" Shen Xiyao was startled, and only those who committed crimes would send it to the palace. I have always been kind, and I would not send it away unless something big happened.
I nodded and said, "Xuan'er has been poisoned by wisteria." As I said, I glanced at the wisteria trellis not far away, and tears flowed down again: "Fortunately, I found out early, otherwise?" I couldn't go on with sobs. Keep hatred and fear in my heart.
Shen Xi embraced me, his voice low and full of the authority of the emperor. "Don't worry," he held me tighter: "I won't let anyone want to harm our children."
I looked up at him and saw that his handsome face was full of determination and hostility, and a pair of small clusters of flames flashed in his eyes. I snuggled into his arms and whispered: "The concubine is thinking, so many things have happened to Xuan'er one after another, I am afraid that it is because the emperor takes him too seriously that it will cause disaster."
Shen Xiyao said "Oh", "Who are you suspecting?"
I smiled bitterly and shook my head: "Before the evidence comes out, the concubine will not doubt anyone. The concubine means that Xuan'er was born with auspiciousness, the emperor amnesty the world, and loves him very much. He is so small, how can he bear it? Can he survive such a great blessing? Even if he is not poisoned today, he will suffer from illness and disaster in the future."
I took Shen Xiyao's hand and looked at it, as if this could dispel the panic in my heart. There is a thin layer of cocoon in his palm, which was left by practicing riding and shooting since he was a child, but not like Xi He, who has been stationed and battled all the year round, and the cocoon in his hand is thick and hard, which makes people feel more reliable.
"What is the relationship between Xuan'er's illness and poisoning and good fortune? From my perspective, it's nothing more than some people doing tricks behind your back! Don't worry, I will let them find out." Shen Xi said in a deep voice.
My tears fell, and it happened to fall on the palm of his hand. He trembled and squeezed, his eyes were firm as a rock, and he looked straight at me: "Don't think about it, follow me to see Xuan'er."
I nodded and followed him, but was silent all the way. Xuan'er in the back hall had taken medicine, and was guarded by Zhilan and a few court ladies. The new nurse was sent in by the eldest brother himself in the afternoon, and she was holding him to sleep at this time. Seeing Shen Xiyao coming in with me, they gently saluted, Shen Xiyao waved his hand, and walked straight to Xuan'er.
Xuan'er's complexion was slightly pale. Although she was asleep, her breathing was weak, like a long white rabbit, making her heart sore.
Shen Xiyao gently stroked his little face, and whispered but sternly: "Haosheng takes care of the little prince, and after a business trip, he will stay in the jail by himself."
After leaving the apse, I gave Shen Xiyao a strong smile and said, "Xuan'er is better, let the emperor go to Huifei's office."
Shen Xiyao said softly: "I will accompany you tonight. You must feel uncomfortable in your heart."
I shook my head: "The concubine wants to go to Mingjingtang to pray for Xuan'er."
Shen Xiyao said: "Then I will stay with you."
I solemnly bowed to him and said, "The emperor has already worked very hard during the day. If he accompanies his concubine to the temple at night, the concubine cannot agree to it." I finished speaking and took his hand and said: "The emperor has such a mind. That's enough. Besides, you haven't been to see Shengyuan and Concubine Hui for a long time. You can't favor one another."
Shen Xiyao thought for a while and said, "I'm going back to the Hall of Nurturing Heart tonight. Let's see them during the day."
I smiled slightly and escorted him to the gate of the palace, watching him walk away on his shoulders before returning to the sleeping hall.
"My mother really wants to go to Mingjingtang?" Huiju couldn't help asking when seeing me looking for Buddhist scriptures.
I nodded: "My palace wants to ask the Buddha to let Xuan'er heal as soon as possible, so that there will not be so many disasters in the future."
Huiju pursed her lips and didn't say anything. She helped me find something good, put a cloak on me, and prepared some tea and snacks, and then went with me.
Shen Xingsi returned the next morning and found some wisteria seeds in the water where the nurse rubbed her body. Under interrogation, several nurses insisted that no one instructed them. They thought about eating wisteria flowers in the folks, and wisteria repelling mosquitoes, so they took some boiled water and wiped their bodies. It may be that the selection was not clean, and the skins, stems and seeds were boiled together, which caused Xuan'er to be poisoned, but it was definitely not intentional. I also said that I gave them a hundred courage and didn't dare to harm their concubines.
When I heard this reply, I had been copying sutras and reciting the Buddha in Mingjingtang all night. At the moment, I felt exhausted and depressed in my heart, as if being held tightly by a thick twine. Huiju twisted the hot veil to clean the noodles for me, and brought me hot milk to drink, which was slightly better.
"Niang, Shen Xingsi asks what to do?" Hui Ju asked carefully.
I was sitting under the open window in a cool breeze, and my irritability was dispelled. I sneered: "Do you believe it?"
Huiju soaked the veil in the basin and wrung it dry. Then he said: "The servant doesn't understand the pharmacology, but the doctor Xie said that it is poisoned by accidental ingestion. If you boil water, the toxicity should not be so great."
I nodded: "I'm afraid it was juiced out of the skin and stems and applied before feeding."
"Since Niang Niang thinks so, why don't you tell Shen Xingsi?" Hui Ju asked in surprise.
I shook my head: "There is no evidence in this palace. No evidence can be found."
Huiju said with enlightenment: "Yes, as long as you throw the squeezed bark and stems under the flower porch, no one can tell. The wisteria is in the courtyard, and you can take it whenever you need it?"
I took a deep breath and made up my mind: "Go and tell Shinyukiji, I believe it, but such careless nurses can't stay in the palace anymore and send them out."
"The mother really believes?" Hui Ju was very surprised, and then thoughtfully: "Yes, these are all brought in by Master Ling, there should be no problem, maybe it is really unintentional."
I smiled softly: "Although the eldest brother came in, there are inevitably some omissions. It is easy to check if they are released, and the people behind them will be taken lightly."
Huiju nodded: "The slave and maidservant will go back to talk. Is the empress going back to the palace or?"
I glanced at the thick stack of Buddhist scriptures on the table, took the veil and wiped my face and said: "The palace is here to stay. You go back to the palace to see Xuan'er's situation, and if there is nothing serious, go out and look for it. Brother."
Hui Ju Yiyan stepped back, and I stood alone on the side of the rosewood, reading the scriptures copied the night before, burning a piece of sandalwood, and continuing to copy.
Soon Huiju sent Xinlan and a few other maids over to wait on her. Dao Xuan'er was much better in reply. My heart was a little more at ease, and then I felt hungry. After eating some porridge and vegetables, I knelt on the futon and recited the scriptures again.
The blue smoke curled up in the Mingjing Hall. I gradually calmed my mind and relaxed my spirits in the fragrance of sandalwood. I quietly knelt on the futon. In my hand, a blue gold moonstone prayer beads slowly turned with the low voice of Buddha. For a time, the whole hall was very tense. Solemn and solemn, calming and reassuring.
Shen Xiyao's voice abruptly broke the peace of the room, and his tone was filled with dissatisfaction and distress, and I was slightly moved.
"I heard you have been here all night, why didn't you go back?" He strode to me, but was startled by the teardrops on my face.
"What's the matter?" His voice suddenly softened.
I gently wiped away the tears on my face, and said in a peaceful voice: "Shen Xingji said this morning that the nurse did not know that the wisteria is poisonous and unintentionally. The concubine thought that Xuan'er was really too young to bear so many blessings. I'm afraid? I'm afraid that there will be things later."
"Xuan'er was given to me by the heavens, and my throne will be given to him in the future. God has blessings, so don't be afraid." Shen Xiyao said.
I was taken aback by what he said, and hurriedly said, "The emperor, don't say that. He is still so young and he can't see good or bad."
Shen Xiyao put away the scriptures in my hand, and helped me up again, "Weir is the child born to me. I can't think of what's wrong with him."
I couldn't help but smile, and then frowned worriedly, looking at Shen Xiyao and said: "The concubine still asks the emperor to put away this thought, and let's talk about it when the children grow up.
Shen Xiyao pinned a strand of broken hair beside my temple behind his ear and said, "Yes, Vier will give birth to many princes for me in the future."
My face flushed, "The emperor, this is a Buddhist hall, so be serious."
Shen Xiyao stretched his face and said with a serious face: "I am very serious."
I lightly plucked him and walked out. He didn't get annoyed and followed.
So the two went back to Kunning Palace hand in hand. Xuan'er's spirit was better than the previous few days. After teasing for a while, seeing him go to sleep, and hearing the doctor's report that the toxins were removed smoothly, a heart fell back into her chest.
Within a few days, Xuan'er had a cold again. It was caused by kicking the quilt at night. Fortunately, the heat was not a big problem, but Shen Xiyao was very unhappy. He drove all the maids who were in charge of looking after him to the clothing bureau, and added Send someone to take care of it.
But I didn't think about it. I only felt that Xuan'er was less than one year old, but he was very pitiful because of illness and poisoning. So he suggested to Shen Xiyao that this was because Xuan'er had too much fortune. He was finally moved by my tears and pleading, and agreed to go to Huguo Temple on the outskirts of Beijing to fast and pray for three days. The incense is most abundant there, and most of them are Taoist monks, who can surely seek the blessing of the Buddha.
Two days later, Xuan'er's wind and cold had healed. Shen Xiyao was afraid that I would be worried, so she ordered Zhilan to take Xuan'er with him. In this way, I can leave the palace at ease.
The Huguo Temple was built on the normal mountain 30 miles west of Beijing. It was towering and moving. It was built by the decree of the founding emperor of Daxi. Brilliant.
I didn't want to disturb the pilgrims' heart to Buddha in the day, so I didn't say anything, and Huguo Temple didn't have to shut the door to thank guests because of my arrival.
Early this morning, I set off from the palace in an unremarkable green oil cloth carriage, with only Huiju and Xiao Xizi to wait on me. For safety, Shen Xiyao selected four people from the Imperial Forest Army to accompany him for protection.
According to my request, Puji, the abbot of Huguo Temple, only took a disciple to wait in front of the mountain gate to greet him.
I helped Hui Ju's hand to walk down the sedan, and the cool mountain breeze in the morning was refreshing.
Puji walked up to me, folded his hands together and said, "Donor, the poor monk is polite."
I owed Qianshenzi: "Master does not need to be polite." Then I followed him into the Huguo Temple.
Huguo Temple stands west to east, the morning welcomes the rising sun, and the evening glows. Temple Zhounan is sheltered by trees, surrounded by red walls, and the great hall is magnificent, golden and brilliant, cigarettes curling up, and the sound of chimes spreading frequently.
Although I had a purpose not to disturb the worship of other pilgrims, Puji still vacated the Puxian Hall exclusively for me to pray. I also set the Liguyuan as my temporary residence. Liguyuan is surrounded by tall trees. Because of the mountain surrounded by forest barriers, the air currents swirl, there are no dead branches or leaves on the roof, and the entire courtyard is dust-free and clean, which is regarded as a miracle. Therefore, the first emperor hand-written the book "Ligu Garden". Here, it has also become a temporary place for the royal family to pay homage to the Buddha.
I am grateful, but besides praying for Xuan'er, my trip has another important purpose. It is really disrespectful to conceal everyone and borrow the name of Buddha. For this reason, I was unsure, and ordered Hui Ju to clean up the wing, walked directly into the Puxian Hall, knelt on the lotus futon with a sincere heart, and recited the scriptures intently.
Samantabhadra Bodhisattva is "Sanmandobadra" in Sanskrit, which means universal virtue. Fuxian is also known as "the king of great wishes" for extensively repairing the "ten great wishes". "Wish" is ideal, and "action" is practice. Puji prayed for me with this temple, and he also understood my heart.
