During the lunch, the little prince Huanan Lin showed symptoms of panic. First, he vomited up milk, refused to eat, and then his whole body got fever.
Concubine Xu sent a palace maid to invite an imperial doctor to come over. Later, Emperor Jing Xiao and Empress Qian were informed and hurried to Chuxiu Palace to visit.
Everyone in the small kitchen was busy. Gu Yunxi made the sweet juice to cool the little prince down, and deliberately added mint leaves, lilies, and other ingredients.
After the sweet juice was boiled, it was poured into a small porcelain bowl and quickly cooled with ice cubes, and then was put into a food box. Gu Yunxi took it to the side palace hall and gave it to the female slave of the palace.
"Where is Tu Muxue? I want to see her."
The food box was passed in, and soon a clear male voice came out from inside. The low voice sounded like rubbing against sand, revealing an undisguised impatience. Gu Yu
In Chuxiu PalaceConcubine Xu walked hurriedly to the courtyard, personally helped Gu Yunxi up, and was about to kneel down in front of her."Your Grace!"Unexpectedly, Gu Yunxi stopped her with both hands in surprise, as well as Jinzhu and Yan Gui beside Concubine Xu also came to stop her."Never, Your Grace. Do you want to cut my life short?"Gu Yunxi panicked, and her cheeks were swollen and flushed as clasping the fingers hard.Concubine Xu had a noble status, so kneeling at a chief maid in front of so many palace maids was far from what Gu Yunxi could bear.Jinzhu knew her master best. Seeing Concubine Xu's gloomy expression, she knelt on the ground without saying a word. Her face was sad."If Your Grace wants to thank Muxue, so let me do it for Your Grace."Yan Gui also knelt down, kowtowed and said,"I'm also willing to do it for Your Grace. Muxue,
When Gu Yunxi arrived at Xiaoye Chamber with a food box, the palace maids were lighting lanterns.The hall was elegant and quiet, and the fragrant flowers in the hall were like brocade.The glazed lamps in the four corners of the wall were shining brightly, and the magnificent light was extremely warm. The light enveloped the beauty by the pearwood table, but it could not dispel the grievances between her eyebrows.After meeting with Gu Yunxi, Gu Yunyao let her sit down, and then eagerly asked about the current situation of Concubine Xu and the little prince.Gu Yunxi told the truth, saying that the prince's symptoms of fright had been well after several days of consultation and medication. However, Concubine Xu was tired and caught a cold due to the continuous rain for a few days. She felt unwell when she woke up in the morning, and she was still ill in bed.Learning that Zhaoyi Yu had come to visit the day before yes
"Godfather, someone there sent things to Xiaoye Chamber in the morning. I guess Gu Yunyao has already been eaten by the snakes."Seeing Ming Lan step into Weiyan Chamber, Gu Yunjin in full costume rushed up happily, holding his arm and questioning.Ming Lan pulled a long face suddenly, and gagged Gu Yunjin with his left hand wearing a deerskin glove. Then he dragged her into the cabinet."Hold it down, my lady!"When the warm red curtain fell, Ming Lan released Gu Yunjin and frowned. He looked unhappy."I have taught you so many times. How can you forget that? You shout so loudly for fear that others will not know that I did it."Gu Yunjin bowed her head with her coquettish face suppressing a gloating smile.Ming Lan came to the Palace quite frequently recently.A few days ago, Gu Yunjin arbitrarily took the responsibility for a decision and snared to Zhaoyi Yu secretly in Chuxiu
In Chuxiu PalaceConcubine Xu swallowed the last bitter medicine soup and frowned.Gu Yunxi presented the candied fruit, but the porcelain plate was gently pushed aside by Concubine Xu.Wiping her mouth with a handkerchief, Concubine Xu sighed."Unexpectedly, Cairen Zhao is usually straightforward, but she acts viciously. Now she has been put in prison, and the five generations of her family cannot enter the Palace forever. She deserves it. Even without her, there will be no end to the deceitful things in this imperial harem.""Your Grace, someone wants to borrow a knife to kill a man, but Cairen Zhao becomes the scapegoat.""Really?"Concubine Xu was stunned, staring straight at Gu Yunxi's tight face, with an astounded expression."Xiaoye Chamber was troubled by snakes. Is there something hidden behind it?"Gu Yunxi nodded and looked around with vigilant eyes. Seeing
The morning was slightly relaxing, and the autumn was pleasant.In the early morning, fallen leaves in Chuxiu Palace were golden, like a soft carpet covering the courtyard. Between the flowers and leaves, the drops of dew rolled with the wind, shining brightly under the sun.During breakfast, Prince Chen came to Chuxiu Palace for fun again, holding a simple kite in his hand.He had breakfast in Gu Yunxi and Lanxin's room, and then asked Gu Yunxi to play with him.Concubine Xu had nothing to do with the silly son of the Emperor, so she had to allow Gu Yunxi to take a half-day leave and let her accompany Prince Chen.Just leaving Chuxiu Palace, Gu Yunxi looked at the kite in Prince Chen's hand, and suddenly thought of something."Your Highness, I know there is a place that is the best for flying kites. Let's go there together."Gu Yunxi squinted and smiled in a sweet voice.Gu Yunxi
After Prince Chen's question, Leng Qingtang loosened his hand so that the girl could take her silky and tiny hand back.Gu Yunxi flushed and felt embarrassed and angry."Master, please have some self-respect."Fortunately, there was no one around. The only spectator was a fool who couldn't speak. If some palace maids saw that scene, they would twist the truth somehow.Leng Qingtang gently stroked his cuffs with his hands, smiling brightly and calmly."I have no other intentions, but only to see the scars on your hand.""Thanks for your mercy, Master. My hands are fine."Gu Yunxi's eyes flickered lightly after speaking. She was afraid to meet those gorgeous and deep black eyes.The pace was getting closer.Two eunuchs hurried into Wutong Garden, stopped at the side of the stone table, and bowed to the Seal Keeper.Leng Qingtang said coldly,"P
The road outside Hanxiang Residence was wide, and few people passed here. While the wind direction was right, Gu Yunxi and Prince Chen flew the kite here.The handcraft was really impressive.The kite made by Leng Qingtang was really good. It was dragged by a string and flew into the sky easily.Seeing this, Prince Chen happily clapped his hands like a child.Gu Yunxi handed him the spool and said secretly."His Highness, I'm sorry. I will disappoint you later again."Before Prince Chen had set the kite too high, Gu Yunxi moved quietly the right arm and twisted her two fingers gently to generate an internal strength that arose into the blue sky sharply.In an instant, the kite string was cut.The kite dropped reelingly into Hanxiang Residence surrounded by high walls.Seeing this, Prince Chen was aggrieved and pointed to the palatial garden."Muxue, I wan
The second day of the ninth lunar monthToday was the deathday of the deceased Crown Prince, Huanan Yiyan. Since the Emperor believed in Taoism and the Empress believed in Buddhism, the honor guards set out during the period of the day from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. and went to the royal Dao Temple, the Pengxian Temple, to participate in the religious rites of worship first. Then Empress Qian went to Yonglu Temple to chant sutras to pray for blessing according to the convention every year. When she came back to the Palace, it was already the period of the day from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. and getting dark.The moon was bright and the stars were few. The night breeze was violent.The gauze curtain of the imperial carriage was fluttering in the wind. Empress Qian was sitting in the middle. Her dress was made of brocade with the cloud and flying phoenix patterns. Her sleeved over-dress was embroidered with red-brown dark ripples whose color was plain, neat, and di
