Chapter 53 52: The imperial concubine has become refined (25)

"Sister Su..."

Concubine Su waved her hands, without looking at her, "Go and accompany Xiyue, and let me be quiet." Lin Zhiyu was really worried, but she couldn't stop her from insisting, so she had to go to Liu Xiyue.

Concubine Su stayed quiet for more than ten days, during which some concubines went to visit, and all of them were politely "invited" out by Huanyan, "My lady is not feeling well, so it is inconvenient to meet guests, all ladies, please go back." The salute is also well-behaved, so that people can't find any faults.

A concubine came out and looked at Huanyan's back and stomped her feet angrily, "What's the big deal, isn't it just a big belly, why are you showing off!"

Liu Xiyue, who happened to hear this, swung the knife with a single glance, and the concubine met her cold gaze and couldn't help suppressing all the complaints that came to her lips.

But when she walked halfway, she remembered: "No, how dare a little Jieyu talk to Ben Gong like that?"

At the beginning of spring, there was a cold spring, and plague broke out in small towns a little further north, and in some places, because of the cold spring, all the crops that had just been planted froze to death.

"Your Majesty, the plague in Yucheng has infected tens of thousands of people, and thousands of people have died. Please make a decision as soon as possible!"

Yucheng, the city lives up to its name.

Compared with other towns, Yucheng is second only to the capital in terms of wealth.[-]% of Jiubin's grain comes from Yucheng, which is called the "granary" of Jiubin.

But this time the plague was caught off guard, and many large merchants were infected with the plague. Some even took their wives and children out of the city overnight, and several towns adjacent to Yucheng were also in panic.

The emperor couldn't make up his mind for a while.

The plague occurs every few years or ten years, but this is the first time it has appeared in a place like Yucheng.

Among the common people, there were officials from other towns who wrote to request the closure of Yucheng, but they were blocked by some big merchants in Yucheng.

They are still in Yucheng, so why should they die with this group of country bumpkins who have no money?
"Your Majesty, I believe that people in Yucheng should be stopped from going out." The Taifu stood up and said.

"I don't agree." The censor jumped out to object after hearing the words, "There are 10,000+ people in Yucheng Ba, old and young. Those who are not infected may also be infected if they stay for a long time."

"It is only by preventing the people in Yucheng from going out that people in other towns can also be prevented from being infected with the plague, not to mention going out of the city to get better medical treatment."

The two have their own opinions and are at a stalemate.

"Since Mr. Su insists on closing Yucheng, it's better to supervise it." Yu Shi glanced at Taifu with a smile on his face.

Everyone knows that these two people look at each other and hate each other in the court, and neither of them accepts the other. In addition, Concubine Su Gui has recently become pregnant with a dragon heir, and the relationship between the two is even more tense.

"It's not right." Someone stopped him, "Master Su may not be able to stand the trouble at his age."

The emperor rubbed his forehead in annoyance, "Okay, since Su Aiqing said so, I will leave the matter of Yucheng to Su Aiqing."

The ministers who originally wanted to object heard what the emperor had said, so they had to swallow the words silently.In fact, most of the old officials knew that the emperor was an extremely vengeful person. Before he took the seat, he seemed to intend to marry the eldest daughter of the Taifu, but was declined by Taifu Su.

Later, after ascending the throne, they directly brought Su's parents and daughters into the palace and made them a noble concubine.

Although they didn't know whether it was true or not that Concubine Su Gui was favored, it was a certainty that the emperor didn't want to see Grand Tutor Su.

"What? They asked father to go to Yucheng?" Concubine Su Gui almost couldn't hold the cup steadily in her hand, her lips were trembling when she spoke, and her expression was anxious.

These days, these women who are far away in the harem and don't care about the court affairs know about Yucheng's affairs. No matter what, Su Guifei never thought that this burden would fall on her father's shoulders.As soon as his father was getting old, the emperor sent him to Yucheng, what kind of heart did he have?

"No, I'm going to see the emperor." Concubine Su hurriedly stood up, "Huanyan, make up and change clothes for me."

Su Guifei almost rushed to the imperial study.

"Hey, Concubine Su Gui came here today by accident. The concubine Rong just went in. Just now the emperor ordered that no one should be allowed in again." Fuchen saluted.

It is inevitable that people will think about it, Su Guifei looked at the eunuch in front of her with red eyes, and took a deep breath. "Please Eunuch Hu to report on my behalf, and say that I have something important to ask."

important matter?Apart from Mr. Su's matter, can there be other things?

Eunuch Hu shook his head, and pushed away the purse that Huanyan handed over, "Ma'am, it's not that our family doesn't help, it's really..." With a troubled expression on his face, he stretched out his hand to wipe his neck.

Although money is precious, the price of the head is even higher. "Your Majesty, please go back, and be careful not to torment the dragon in your belly."

how so?Concubine Su Gui bit her lip, she couldn't lift her chest up in one breath, she just felt dizzy.

"Your Majesty!" Huanyan hurriedly helped her up. "Are you all right? Do you want your servant to call the imperial doctor?"

Eunuch Hu became anxious when he saw this, and shouted at the other eunuchs who were still standing there in a daze, "What are you still doing? Why don't you hurry up and call the imperial physician?"

Concubine Su's bedroom was too far away from here, so she could only be settled in the imperial concubine's palace in the end.

"Doctor, how is my mother?"

The imperial physician took back the handkerchief that was holding Concubine Su's pulse, and said with a serious expression, "Concubine Su's body needs rest, as for the fetus in the womb...there is no pulse..."
