Chapter 335 Face
Moganling's great epidemic, although His Highness Sixth Highness strictly ordered to block the news, it still failed to stop the eyeliners from all parties from leaking the news. Such an earth-shattering event shocked not only the Great Wei court, but also the Mobei imperial court, who suddenly saw the dawn in the silence, and hurriedly sent spies to investigate.
Jita City fell, if this news is confirmed, wouldn't it be the best time to counterattack! Not to mention, he could also take this opportunity to wipe out the Great Wei West Road Army in one fell swoop, and beat the menacing Central Plains Dog into fear.
In the morning court, Emperor Yuan Cheng urgently made several arrangements, and all the people in the court hall sighed for His Highness Six. Seeing that he is one of the most popular princes in front of the emperor, and at this time, encountering a wartime epidemic, this battle may be extremely difficult. No matter how dazzling the previous military exploits are, they are no match for the epidemic that kills them in just a blink of an eye.
Crown Prince Zong Zhenghui was only thinking of pleading for orders from the imperial court, so he asked Emperor Yuan Cheng to change his commander immediately, and led his 70,000 soldiers belonging to the East Palace to attack Mobei, just in time to take over the city of Jita. If the counselors under his command hadn't united in desperate advice, this unusable prince would have been able to break into the palace, and he couldn't wait for a moment to see His Majesty.
All the ministers in the court expressed their opinions, arguing over the epidemic in the West Road Army. The women in the harem were secretly having fun, waiting to see the jokes of Concubine Shu. There are newcomers in the palace, and the number of times the emperor went to Concubine Shu's palace has obviously decreased. However, due to the fact that she has two sons under her knees, His Highness the Sixth Highness is even more capable, so Emperor Yuan Cheng deliberately saved face for her. It's not as good as the previous four or five times a month, but there are always three or two times. In addition, he occasionally went to sit in her palace, only to see the jealousy of many concubines.
What beauty can a woman over forty have. Being able to trip the emperor's legs by relying on affection like this, how willing those young and beautiful people are.
Now that His Highness the Sixth Highness has such a fatal event in the desolate area of Mobei, if one is bad... the rest is the fourth prince who is born with ear problems, it is tantamount to pulling Concubine Shu's spine, let's see what happens to her Secure a foothold in the harem.
Others could see it clearly, but Concubine Shu was in a hurry.
"Tell me, who are you going to send to serve the sick!" He replayed the teacup, seeing the Helian family who had no idea and was at a loss, Concubine Shu felt that she was blind when she chose Zong Zhenglin's concubine. Pick this embroidered pillow. When it's going to die, it's completely useless!
Siji... She absolutely dare not go, and she can't go. He Lian Minmin's face turned pale, clasping his hands together and kneading the silk handkerchief into a ball, he didn't even notice that the armor was hooked and slipped away.
I couldn't help comforting myself, thinking that His Royal Highness is very good at kung fu, his mother is boxing and practicing swords, his body must be very strong. It's just a little ailment, so send someone to take care of her, bring tea and water, and take medicine on time, but it will improve in a few days.
Raising his eyes just to meet Concubine Shu's sharp eyes, Helian Minmin's heart skipped a beat, and he instinctively avoided his eyes.
Seeing her evasive and cowering appearance, Concubine Shu was so angry that she almost embarrassed her in front of the palace people. After all, he still remembers that this is Zongzheng Lin's Zhengfei. To shame her is to humiliate her youngest son. Right now, he was anxious about Zong Zhenglin's side, so he managed to suppress his anger, completely losing hope in her.
"There must be someone in charge in the Prince's Mansion, so you stay here." As soon as these words came out, Helian's tensed back suddenly relaxed. A cold light flashed in her eyes, Concubine Shu took a deep look at her, and immediately called her name.
"The prince and concubine couldn't go, so I asked Su to go there. It should be appropriate to bring another concubine." Once again, Concubine Shu felt that there were too few women in Zong Zhenglin's backyard, almost to the point where no one was available!
It's a pity that the slightly capable girl Mu in the mansion followed the Queen Mother to pray in the temple. But after another thought, Mrs. Mu was favored by Zong Zhenglin too much, and then sent to serve her as a servant, wouldn't this kind of affection be a little closer? If it is absolutely impossible, it is better to send some honest and fertile ones.
The letter only said that an epidemic broke out in the army, and His Highness had a slight fever, so I don't know if this is a good time or not. "The concubine of your family, Mrs. Zhang is a bit older, and there is no news of her going to bed several times. I simply sent the round and fair Wan's over there. She served well, just like my palace said, there are many things. reward!"
Helian Minmin kept her head buried and didn't dare to contradict, so she complied, but she didn't like Concubine Shu's arrangement in her heart. His Highness is still fighting in the front, and is facing an epidemic, and the mother and concubine are still thinking about how to arrange for women to share the favor. If His Highness knows what Concubine Shu has done today, it is inevitable that there will be a grudge in his heart.
Although she was not as good as Mrs. Mu and His Highness the Sixth Highness, Helian Minmin could roughly figure out Zong Zhenglin's temperament. That man, no one who plotted behind his back could get any benefit.
This is also where Mu Xiyao is shrewd. At the idea of the Sixth Highness, this demon girl always reveals some traces. Even though he deliberately concealed him at the time, afterwards he was confident and arrogant, jumping to contradict him. Being so flamboyant and domineering made Zong Zhenglin almost furious, and His Highness the Sixth Highness never felt that she was guilty of shame. On the contrary, she felt that this woman had a real temperament, but she was just too troublesome.
After coming back from Concubine Shu's palace, Helian Minmin sat in Zen Ruoyuan with a cold face for half an hour, and even Mother Feng was kicked out. How could she not know that this is a great time to please Zong Zhenglin. In this life, this is probably the only time in her life that she can soften his heart and put his heart on the woman who is devoted to serving her when she is ill.
It's a pity that time doesn't wait for her. Her medicine must not be interrupted like this. Going to Mobei means that the poison on her body will be difficult to pull out. Grace and heirs, Helian Minmin thought about it all night last night. With Mrs. Mu standing in front, no matter how much favor she has, it's hard to be able to compete with her. Furthermore, now that there is a widow from the Northland, who knows which one His Highness will favor in the future.
Favor cannot be relied upon, so one can only hope that having a son will stabilize her position.
"Mommy, go and ask those few to come in and talk." Favoring... She wanted to see, the meat delivered to her mouth, without Mrs. Mu being an eyesore, Zong Zhenglin would not accept it.
Ever since she came back from Zen Ruoyuan, Wan Jingwen was overjoyed, and she felt faintly in a trance.
It was so easy and effortless, so she told her to wait to be overjoyed. When she heard her explain the errand in Helian's house, she was so excited that even her fingertips could not stop trembling!
If Nanny Feng had been a little late, at this moment... Su Linrou would have been "without energy and blood", and her body was too weak to travel far. What she wanted to do hadn't been properly explained to Zhu Jin, but Helian Minmin interrupted her halfway. She was anxious and annoyed, so she couldn't have imagined it, but what this woman brought her was great luck!
Helen deserves to be unhappy. This woman will never know in her life that Tang Yiru was able to be favored by Emperor Jian'an as a virtuous concubine in her previous life, which is due to this sickness.
Facing the dowry, she went to the purple grinding gold step, and stroked her temples with her hand. The woman's movements in the bronze mirror reminded her of the arrogant and rude woman in front of her.
"What do you say over there?"
After Yinshuang, who had waved back to tidy up her makeup box, retreated, Zhu Jin approached cautiously to report. "Master, that person only said that there are people in His Highness's house." She couldn't figure out what this sentence meant, so she followed it word by word.
Is there someone else? Wan Jingwen's almond eyes widened, and it took a long time before she gradually calmed down.
That's the case... No wonder she is so familiar with the affairs of the two Jin Dynasties. "There are also people here" means that it is impossible to kill that woman to silence her? I always feel unlucky in my heart, but fortunately, that woman obviously has other plans. Thinking of using her? Just put it together.
In the previous life, there were intrigues and deceptions in the palace, and the competition was unknown. If she couldn't even deal with a little prince and concubine, she would have spent most of her life in the palace in vain.
Everyone is there, so who can be afraid of who else... Exposing this matter will be a dead end, Helianshi, she doesn't have the guts!
"Instruct me to go down and see what kind of tricks that woman plays." Leaving the capital soon, "walking around occasionally" will not work, the woman in the letter will not miss it. "If she sends a letter, remember, it must not be seen by others."
Helian Minmin is vicious, but he is not very smart. I don't know that her sister may be more important than her elder sister. Concubine Wan Shu gently wiped the blush on her lips, her eyes couldn't stop the coldness and ridicule.
Master Jiang Zixuan was in a happy mood, and the servants quickly followed suit to pack up. In Fanghua Garden, Su Linrou tightly strangled her handkerchief, pacing back and forth in the flower hall, her mind wandering.
"The epidemic will kill people, right?" Although she didn't read many books, she overheard someone talking about it at home. The woman mentioned that the man in the family had a plague that year when he had a flood, and died within two days. She couldn't help but wiped her tears, her voice was very miserable. According to her words, after the flood receded, both sides of the river were full of carrion corpses drowned by the water. After that, the epidemic spread from village to village, and thousands of people died before they were suppressed by the medical officers sent by the government.
This time the epidemic broke out in the military camp, and the camps were so densely packed, it must be more terrifying than that of the great flood. Moreover, it is far away from the capital, and doctors and herbs are not enough. Not to mention the fear of life, but seeing so many dead people, Su Linrou's legs are weak just thinking about it.
"Mommy, why don't you..." It's best if I don't go because of my illness. She is not the only woman in the house, even the dignified concubine of the Helian family can escape, she is just an unfavored side concubine, and there is no reason to risk her life like this.
Wouldn't it be better to please His Highness, wait for His Highness to come back and put more thought into it? In Mobei, the wind and sand are surprisingly strong, and people can see where to go in that dilapidated place. Not to mention being unkempt and dirty, His Highness did not like it.
"Master, you can't do it!" Nanny Dai was shocked, and rushed to help her sit down. "If you evade this at the moment, let alone the prince concubine, the concubine Shu in the palace knows, how can you explain it! What's more, if your highness finds out and returns to the court safely, you may lose your foothold in the mansion place……"
After painstakingly admonishing her for a long time, it was easy to see that she lost her mind, and Nanny Dai finally felt relieved. It's a pity that she underestimated Su Linrou's fear of death, and she underestimated her girl's affection for His Highness. So...
The next day, when everyone went to Helian's house to set rules, Concubine Su was accidentally tripped by concubine Zhang's maid, sprained her ankle and swollen her neck. According to the imperial doctor, you have to lie on the bed with peace of mind and recuperate for a while, and you must not move.
