"My sister's cat is really cute." Then he stretched out his hand and touched it lightly.
"Is the empress empress here?" Xu Qiuqiu first smiled, and then looked at her suspiciously. These days, he had been paying attention to his pets and had not heard any news outside.
"Since Concubine Liang was scratched by the cat, she was in a coma. The queen mother specially ordered her to visit her house and check this out by the way." Du Xuechun deliberately tried it out, drinking the tea just brought by the court lady, and took a sip.
"Huh, what's the matter with her concubine in a coma? If it wasn't for Xueran who angered her concubine, how could she get scratched." After all, Xu Qiuqiu still touched the kitten in her arms with distress.
Du Xuechun was silent and looked indifferent, as if he hadn't heard anything.
"Empress Empress, you don't doubt your concubines?" Although Xu Qiuqiu's mind was a little slower, he was not a fool. From the time the queen entered to the present, he only talked about the situation of the concubine, but was testing himself.
Thinking of this, my heart flustered inexplicably, and the eyes looking at her were also worried.
"What the younger sister is talking about, it's just an order from the Queen Mother, come over and check it, you worry too much." Du Xuechun put down the tea cup in his hand, and his eyes fell on the lazy cat.
"Queen dowager?" Xu Qiuqiu was startled at first, and then he came to realize that the queen mother had been very protective of the concubine a few days ago, and now she has something to protect her again, and letting the queen be here is really too much.
Du Xuechun glanced at the woman in front of her, with an imperceptible smile at the corner of her mouth, and then stretched out her hand to take the snow-white cat from her arms.
"This cat has a very special breed. It's not unique to Kyoto. Where did you find my sister?"
Xu Qiuqiu had been thinking about the Queen Mother just now, and didn't notice her words.
"Sister? Concubine?" Du Xuechun saw her bow her head and said nothing, then motioned to Mingying beside her with her eyes.
Mingying understood, and quietly retreated.
"Concubine Xian." The maid beside her kept her head down. Hearing the queen's call several times, Concubine Xian didn't agree, and hurriedly reached out and pulled her sleeve.
Concubine Xian suddenly woke up, looking at Du Xuechun's eyes with confusion, then got up from the chair and knelt on the ground.
"Niangniang forgive me, my concubine just..."
"Forget it, get up, it's okay." Du Xuechun raised his hand and stroked Xueran's hair, and said indifferently, looking at the concubine Xian who got up from the ground, curious.
"What is my sister thinking?"
"The concubine didn't think about anything, just thinking about Concubine Liang, what happened to her?" Xu Qiuqiu whispered, and the hostility flashed past his eyes.
"What is the scar on Xueran's body?"
As soon as he mentioned this, Xu Qiuqiu felt that the woman would die immediately, so that he could escape the breath in his heart, holding the handkerchief in his hand tightly.
What Du Xuechun saw was true, without words.
"It's Concubine Liang. She came to the concubine the other day, because the concubine's concubine's concubine serving tea accidentally burned her, and she was so angry that she was angry at the concubine's Xueran. Xueran was anxious and accidentally scratched her. she was."
When Xu Qiuqiu returned from Liangfei's palace with Xueran, he asked why.
"Concubine Liang is not sensible anymore." Du Xuechun swept towards the door without leaving a trace, and saw Mingying walking in from outside the door and nodding to her.
"My palace is exhausted, and it's time to go. If the queen mother asks, my palace will also have something to explain." The bright yellow figure stood up from the chair and mentioned the queen mother again.
Xu Qiuqiu's face became stiff, then he returned to normal and sent away the queen.
"Niangniang..." Seeing that her master's face was not good, the court lady behind her couldn't answer, but she just called out softly.
"Nothing." Xu Qiuqiu secretly clenched his fist, but the account was placed on the head of the Queen Mother. Turned around and walked into the bedroom, picked up the ‘compensation products’ from the Queen’s Palace from the dressing table, and then slammed it to the ground.
The hosta suddenly broke into several petals, scattered on the ground.
"Niang Niang, did you find anything unusual?" Mingying followed behind and asked in a low voice.
"She doesn't know anything, it seems that she has been used." Du Xuechun took a deep breath, stopped and looked at the scenery in the garden, feeling a little depressed.
Such a magnificent place has a depressive atmosphere, and I can't breathe, and I miss the days when I was in the palace.
Seeing her staring at the scenery beside her, Mingying stayed silent, the nostalgia in her eyes fell into her eyes, and she understood what Du Xuechun was thinking, so she changed the subject.
"Niang, the servant girl just found a puppet of a concubine in the side hall."
"Huh?" Du Xuechun retracted his thoughts, curled his eyebrows and looked at Mingying beside him, "Heh, Du Qingheng finally learned to be smart, but this smartness is harming himself, which is not yet known."
After speaking, he walked forward, stroking his stomach from time to time, his eyes full of love and affection.
"Manny, this matter, you..."
"This matter was promised by the Queen Mother, so why should I intervene." Du Xuechun didn't want to be a scheming woman, and could not help but endure this situation.
Inside the concubine palace.
The smell of medicine was flying all over the sky, permeating the whole side hall. The imperial doctor who was studying the prescription was sweating coldly at this time, but he couldn't find the cause.
"A few imperial doctors, please have some tea, go and listen and wait." Yanyan watched the imperial doctor's mouth dry up, and the corners of her lips were faintly peeling, and she prepared refreshments intimately.
"This... Niang Niang's disease." Before the doctor Wei finished speaking, she was interrupted by Yan Yan.
"Doctor, you can only see your mother if you have the strength. If you fall down, if your mother feels uncomfortable, how should you explain to the saint."
Yanyan was reasonable, and several imperial doctors also thought it was reasonable. In addition, she was hungry and hungry when she woke up early, and now she prepared refreshments and left.
"Girl Yanyan, if there is anything wrong with the empress, please let me know."
The pace of the doctor Wei paused, turning around and arching his hands to Yan Yan.
"Yes." Replied, and seeing that there was no one in the room, Yan Yan walked to the bed and gently called Du Qingheng.
"Mother, wake up, there is no one here."
As soon as the voice fell, the woman lying on the bed with her eyes closed suddenly opened her eyes and sat up from the bed.
"Niangniang, you are hungry, eat some snacks, and continue to lie down later." As he said, he took out a packet of snacks from his arms and placed it in front of Du Qingheng.
Du Qingheng was also very hungry, and ignoring other things, he picked up the snack opposite and ate it.
"Niang Niang, this was handed over by Aunt Su Lian to the servant, so you can wait to take it down." Yan Yan glanced around and whispered in her ear.
The hand who was eating the snack had a meal, looking at the medicine bowl in the palm of her hand, Du Qingheng's eyes were ruthless, he finished the snack in his mouth and took the pill.
Thinking of Du Xuechun's conversation with the emperor this morning, Du Qingheng's teeth tickled with hatred.
Why did she get the honor, she lives in this partial hall.
"Go and see the empress."
At this time--
A voice came from the door.
