I’ll Be the Male Lead’s Sister-in-Law
Chapter 21: support
The bowl slammed on the ground and made a muffled sound, and the dark concoction flowed all over the floor. The maid immediately knelt down to apologize, too scared to raise her head. The female official Xiang Nanchun who had just transferred from the palace to Qiyang Palace as the internal supervisor heard the voice and hurried over. She first saw the shivering maid lying on the ground, sprinkled the potion all over the floor, and slowly moved her eyes upward, only to see the bed half-hidden by the screen, Xie Xuanchen was leaning halfway.
When Xiang Nanchun saw this scene, there was nothing else she didn't understand. Without saying anything, she knelt on the ground with her skirt, bowed her head respectfully and said: "The little maid was a errand for the first time. She was clumsy and disturbed the prince. Please forgive me. crime."
Xie Xuanchen had already sat up, his eyes swept over these strange women, and he looked at the hall where there were obviously many people, and smiled unclearly.
In the past, Mu Mingtang would definitely run over as long as he heard the sound. Now that the movement is so big, and time has passed so long, she has not appeared yet.
Probably, it won't show up.
The man at the door still knelt on the ground, he did not speak, no one dared to get up. I don't know if it was Xie Xuanchen's illusion. He always felt that these women were too afraid of him. Even though he was usually afraid of women, he shouldn't panic like that when he wakes up.
Xie Xuanchen didn't say anything, and said lightly: "Since it's the first time, then get up."
Xiang Nanchun kowtow deeply to the ground: "Thank you, Lord."
Then Xiang Nanchun pinched the little maid quietly and signaled her to quit. Soon afterwards, a maid served a hot soup, and another team of maid followed, quietly cleaning up the mess on the ground.
Xiang Nanchun was in front of Xie Xuanchen's interview medicine. After a while, there was no abnormality, and then asked the maid to bring the medicine bowl up: "Master, please use the medicine."
Xie Xuanchen's eyes moved down, stopped on the medicine, and did not speak for a long time. The girl with the medicine began to tremble all over, the more trembling became more obvious, and finally even the surface of the water shook tiny waves.
Xiang Nanchun waited calmly for a long time, but finally couldn't help it, trying to remind: "His Royal Highness King Qiyang, it's time to drink medicine..."
Xie Xuanchen glanced over, and Xiang Nanchun suddenly did not dare to speak. Xie Xuanchen didn't care about it and asked, "When is it?"
"Back to the prince, it's time."
"How about the day?"
"September 14."
"September 14." Xie Xuanchen repeated it slowly, as if there was something special about this day. At this moment, there were many people standing in the sleeping hall, and I don't know how many pairs of ears were surrounded outside, but the needles were always falling inside the house, and everyone did not even dare to exhale loudly.
Everyone quickly calculated in their hearts what is special about September 14, but Xie Xuanchen was thinking, today, September 14, he has been in a coma for five days. Where is Mu Mingtang these five days?
When Mu Mingtang learned that he woke up, it was impossible not to show up, so it seemed that there was only one possibility.
Xie Xuanchen said nothing, rushed to the maid and said, "Bring the medicine."
The maid tremblingly delivered the medicine, Xie Xuanchen sneered when seeing something. Xie Rui was really guarded against him. The spoons used to drink the medicine were all wooden. Is it afraid that porcelain or silver will become a weapon in his hands?
It would be too low to look at him, as long as he wants, what can not be his weapon?
Xie Xuanchen violently violently, grabbed the wooden spoon from the maid's hand, and broke it easily, and the spoon was broken into a sharp point. At this time, the maid still raised her hand in a daze, the medicine bowl fell to the ground, still whirring.
The spike in Xie Xuanchen's hand had already touched the maid's throat: "Where is she?"
The maid finally reacted, trembling like a sieve: "The slave...the slave doesn't know who the prince is asking."
Xiang Nanchun didn't expect this change. At this moment, she reacted and knelt down and said: "The slaves and the maidservants have just arrived, and I really don't know what your majesty is asking. Please take your majesty's sake and spare the slaves and wait for your life."
The guard outside the door also silently grasped the scabbard, ready to draw the knife at all times. Xie Xuanchen sneered, his wrists suddenly pressed hard, and he threw the wooden thorns to the ground, rubbing Xiang Nanchun's sleeves and nailing them into the ground. Xiang Nanchun only felt a flower in front of him, his sleeves were nailed, and the surrounding maid yelled out, and Xiang Nanchun's legs softened instantly.
Floor tiles were laid underneath. A piece of wood that was easily broken and thrown in the air could pierce the floor tiles.
"I don't know who I'm asking?" Xie Xuanchen completely restrained and smiled. His complexion is not very good now. The moles of tears are reflected on his pale and thin face, gloomy and aggressive, "Now you know?"
This time, not only was the female officer's legs weak, but the guards outside looked cold. They thought of this scene when they were preparing tableware, deliberately removing dangerous items such as porcelain bowls and silver bowls, and even the spoons were deliberately blunt. Unexpectedly, in Xie Xuanchen's hands, the spoon only needs to be broken at will. With the strength of bare hands, it is a weapon that can smash floor tiles and kill people.
What's more frightening is that this is just his weak state.
Xiang Nanchun was almost frightened, and now she was soft, and quickly said: "The slave and maidservant are only responsible for the internal affairs, and I really don’t know the whereabouts of the princess. Five days ago, the internal servant bureau Sun Daizhao summoned the princess away. Sun Daizhao and others have been living in Jingzhai. The servants and Jingzhai have never had any contact with each other and have no knowledge."
Those in the Internal Servant Bureau are the ones who serve the Queen Mother. Xie Xuanchen sneered, propped up the bed, just stood up and staggered out.
Xie Xuanchen walked, no one of them dared to help, all knelt on the ground, waiting without raising their heads. After Xie Xuanchen walked out, the maid quietly asked Xiang Nanchun: "Aunt Xiang, the prince has gone to Jingzhai, Sun Daizhao, should we send someone to inform?"
Xiang Nanchun wrinkled her eyebrows for a long time, and finally shook her head slowly: "It's too late. Just do your own errands, don't do superfluous things. We can't afford to mix things up with the people above."
Xie Xuanchen almost forgot that there is such a place in his mansion. In fact, Jingzhai is not far from Yulintang. The eaves in front of Yulintang are connected to two Zhaixuan. The left is called Risizhai and the right is called Yunruizhai. Passing through Yunrui Zhai, and then going forward is Jing Zhai.
But Jing Zhai, as its name suggests, is extremely quiet and gloomy. When he approached, there was a black shadow whirling outside Jing Zhai, and the sound of bamboo leaves was dull. The inside of the bamboo is pitch black, only one room has light.
Numerous guards and maids followed him. The incident happened suddenly and someone wanted to pass on the news, but Xie Xuanchen stood in front, and no one dared to try to remind him. Xie Xuanchen approached silently, and the people inside were still talking.
Xie Xuanchen vaguely heard what was being selected. What Mu Mingtang said, another woman's voice seemed to be a pity, and she asked, "Wang Princess Mu, do you really choose this way? You are so beautiful and your skin looks delicate. If a needle is stuck in, I am afraid it will be a bit more painful. crime."
What got stuck in? When Xie Xuanchen heard it outside, he immediately raised his eyebrows and slammed the door open: "What do you want her to choose?"
Sun Daizhao is pulling out the thinnest one from the needle pouch. There are rules for everything in the palace, and the same is true for the needle. From thin to thick, from short to long, you can't mess up the order.
She was about to say something when she suddenly heard a bang behind her. Sun Daizhao was taken aback, and his hands trembled, almost piercing his fingertips. She turned her head angrily and saw a person standing in the night. Behind him followed a group of maids and entourage. Seeing Sun Daizhao's sight, the maids lowered their eyes one by one, and no one dared to step forward.
Sun Daizhao was stunned, and suddenly understood. King Qiyang didn't know when he woke up. The people outside didn't watch him and didn't say anything. Why didn't they send someone to let him know?
Sun Daizhao immediately led a group of female officials to kneel down, no matter where he could take care of the needle pouch on the side: "For slaves, see King Qiyang, Prince Jinan."
Mu Mingtang also stood up swiftly. She originally wanted to greet her, but Xie Xuanchen was surrounded by many attendants. It seemed that the stars held the moon, too far away, and Mu Mingtang's footsteps stopped for some reason.
Sun Daizhao and the others knelt together, and Mu Mingtang looked around and bowed his head without saying a word.
Xie Xuanchen walked in, and people on both sides hurriedly moved a seat for him to set the stage. The people on the ground couldn't get up without Xie Xuanchen's words. Sun Daizhao felt that someone was walking up and down above her head, but she had to stick to the ground, and her heart couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
She is the four-class imperial court in front of the Queen Mother. Whoever sees her in the palace should not respectfully call "aunt grandson", even if the favored concubine sees her, he must be careful to curry favor. When did Sun Daizhao suffer such light insults?
But this person in front of him is King Qiyang, and Sun Daizhao hates him no matter how much he hates him. At this moment, he can only bear it and wait for King Qiyang to speak.
After Xie Xuanchen sat down, he said slowly, "Get up."
Sun Daizhao breathed a sigh of relief, and at any rate did not let her wait too long, after all, she was the person in front of the queen mother, and King Qiyang knew the severity no matter how mad.
Sun Daizhao was about to pick up his skirt and got up, when Xie Xuanchen suddenly said, "Kneeling, I didn't say you."
Sun Daizhao was stunned, and the other female officials looked at each other, not knowing whether to get up or continue to kneel.
Mu Mingtang is a princess, and saluting is not at the same level as them. She just crouched and walked for happiness. When Xie Xuanchen spoke, she stood straight. Mu Mingtang is a little embarrassed, is she moving too fast? Did Xie Xuanchen's "get up" just now tell her?
Now Sun Daizhao and the female officials are still stationary, and Mu Mingtang is too embarrassed to move, so they can only continue to stand where they are. She stood, Sun Daizhao and others kneeling, the contrast was particularly humiliating.
Xie Xuanchen pointed to a female officer at this time and said, "You, bring up what's in your hand."
This is the sixth rank of the regular attendant, because he can speak good words and looks pretty, so he is very pleased with the queen mother. Yu Changshi was also particularly proud of this, and she always looked at people with eyelids. It is said that her future is far more than that of female officials, and she may become the master when she can.
Because of this decentness, Yu Changshi has always been good at picking the top, and this time he came to do the errands for the queen mother. Yu Changshi is particularly enthusiastic, riveting enough to make a contribution. Just now he pressed Mu Mingtang, Yu Changshi didn't make any effort, even the needle, she was ready to move and snatched it from her companion.
Now that Leng Buding was pointed out by Xie Xuanchen, Yu Changshi suddenly got a big head. She regretted it a bit, she just shouldn't have helped her companions take things. Yu Changshi secretly went to see Sun Daizhao, but Sun Daizhao knelt at the forefront, seeing nothing at the moment. Yu Changshi didn't know what to do, so he could only bite the bullet and put the wooden tray up.
Yu Changshi knelt by the chair, tremblingly raised the wooden plate over his eyebrows, and presented it in front of Xie Xuanchen. Xie Xuanchen looked down, and after a while, suddenly picked out a slender needle.
His fingers were long and slender, and his bones became thinner because of his chronic illness. At the moment, with the slender needle in both hands, he couldn't tell which one was more scary.
Xie Xuanchen took it in front of his eyes and looked at it for a while, compared to Chang Shi, and asked, "How do you use it?"
Yu Changshi's body began to tremble: "The slave and maid don't know."
"You don't know either." Xie Xuanchen slowly turned the slender needle with his fingers, and said in a joking tone, "When I woke up, I asked the princess where she was. The girl who was kneeling on the bed said she didn't know. Now I will see what you and the princess do, don’t you know?"
Xie Xuanchen smiled, and suddenly his tone changed: "Guess that maid who didn't know, is she still alive now?"
Yu Changshi shuddered more and more, and his words became uncomfortable: "Slave, slave maid..."
At this time, Sun Daizhao suddenly answered: "Return to the prince, the servants and others are ordered by the queen dowager to come to the palace to share the worries for the princess. The slaves are all kind, if there is any misunderstanding, please listen to the king of Qiyang before I finish explaining. Get lost."
Xie Xuanchen didn't care about what Sun Daizhao said. He smiled and said regretfully: "You don't say it. If you don't say it, then I have to ask others."
Xie Xuanchen said and looked at Mu Mingtang: "Mingtang, how do you use this needle?"
Mu Mingtang was caught off guard by being named. She raised her head and looked at Xie Xuanchen in surprise, only to make sure that he was really talking to her. The corner of Mu Mingtang's eyes swept over the people on the ground and found that he was now someone who was backing his back, and his tail shook suddenly: "Aunt Sun said, the short ones are used for fingertips, and the medium ones are used for waist and legs. The longest needle is suitable to be pierced horizontally without clothes."
Even if they couldn't see it, everyone seemed to feel pain. Xie Xuanchen nodded and asked Mu Mingtang, "Which needle do you prefer?"
"The prince's hand is just right."
"Yeah." Xie Xuanchen nodded, and handed the needle to Changsi Yu in front of him, "Just as the princess said, you come and show me. You don't have to look for the goal far, your leader seems to be surnamed Sun, just her."
Yu Changshi was shuddering and almost fainted. She leaned over suddenly and banged her head on the ground: "King Qiyang forgive me, the slave servants will never dare! Lord, please forgive me!"
Xie Xuanchen smiled extremely coldly. The corners of his eyes looked like a hook or a smile. "I only know that I'm afraid now? Why didn't you remember being afraid when the person who moved me just now?"
With a flick of his fingertips, Xie Xuanchen directly nailed the fine needle into the gap between Chang Shi's fingers: "You come by yourself, or me?"
Sun Daizhao couldn’t listen anymore. He raised his head and said neither humble nor arrogant: “King Qiyang, the servant girl came to Qiyang Palace to help on the order of the queen mother. When the queen mother asked, the prince might not be able to explain."
"Queen dowager?" Xie Xuanchen said and smiled, without concealing his disdain, "Lu Shi has been playing in front of you for a long time, has he really forgotten her identity? She dare not be mad in front of me, her slave, Pour one by one to play the queen mother's score with me?"
Mu Mingtang didn't understand too much. It sounded like the Queen Mother seemed to have any grudges with Xie Xuanchen? She looked around quietly and found that everyone was quietly lowering their heads, even Sun Daezhao did not dare to argue, Mu Mingtang was very interested and did not speak.
Only the sobbing of Chang Shi was present, and couldn't help it. Xie Xuanchen directly nailed the needle into her finger, and Yu Changshi was too frightened to move his hand. Seeing no one was talking at this moment, Yu Changshi was completely desperate and pulled out the needle tremblingly.
I didn't know if it was too scared or the needle was too deep. Yu Changshi tried to pull out the thin needle several times. She walked to Sun Daizhao's side, whispered no, then shook her hands and pierced the needle at Sun Daizhao.
Yu Changshi had tried his best to put down his strength and just behave, but the moment the needle entered the flesh, Sun Daizhao still called out in pain. Mu Mingtang looked very happy. Just now, when Yu Changshi was holding the needle pouch, he was extremely arrogant and proud. Now that she uses her expertise on her boss, it is also making the best use of it. Hopefully, Yu Changshi can still laugh when he returns to the palace.
When Xie Xuanchen didn't speak, Yu Changshi didn't dare to stop. In the end, Sun Daizhao's expression worsened, and Yu Changshi really didn't dare anymore, hurriedly knocked a few heads, and stabbed a needle on himself indiscriminately: "It's the slave's fault, the prince is forgiving, the princess is forgiving!"
Yu Changshi Xu was to return to the palace to have a good time, and he didn't save any strength when he pierced himself. Mu Mingtang looked so painful, Yu Changshi had pricked his feet for more than 30 times, and there were tiny drops of blood on his clothes. Xie Xuanchen was satisfied: "Yes, I like this set. Leave it."
Yu Changshi was so relieved that he couldn't kneel down, desperately kowtow to Xie Xuanchen. The people inside and outside were relieved, thinking that the matter was finally over, even Mu Mingtang thought so. Unexpectedly, Xie Xuanchen's tone changed, and then suddenly asked: "What is that bowl of soup medicine for?"
The air suddenly stagnated, and Sun Daizhao's face turned pale this time. Mu Mingtang swept his eyes around and said, "The female officials said that this is for restoring the body. If you are afraid of pain when you have a child, drink a bowl of this medicine, and you will not be pregnant if you are not pregnant. Up."
When Mu Mingtang first talked about restoring his body, Xie Xuanchen really followed this direction. He didn't expect to hear that, his face was getting colder and colder, and the murderous look in his eyes almost turned into substance.
Xie Xuanchen didn't even sneer this time: "Who ordered it?"
Sun Daizhao's face was astonishingly ugly. Seeing that no one would admit it, Xie Xuanchen snorted and said, "You are so good to give this kind of thing to Qiyang Palace. If you don't tell me, I will ask Xie Rui. ."
Several female officials spoke at the same time, and finally Sun Daizhao took the lead and said, "It's a slave."
Xie Xuanchen coldly pointed to the completely cold concoction and said, "Drink it."
"Yes." Sun Daizhao squatted his head, then took the bowl from the other female officer, raised his head and drank all the bowl in front of everyone. This kind of functional medicine would not taste good. Mu Mingtang felt sick just by smelling it. Sun Daizhao almost nauseated after drinking it, but he still didn't dare to leave a drop.
They didn't expect Xie Xuanchen to wake up so quickly, and they didn't expect Xie Xuanchen to come over in person at night. Didn’t it mean that King Qiyang was so sick that he could only breathe out, and he would go to see King Yan anytime?
Sun Daizhao and the others had another task. They only stared at Jing Zhai throughout the day and did not go to Yulin Hall to serve, so they were very late in knowing about Xie Xuanchen's activity. When the reaction came, everything was too late.
The emperor really didn't want children to be born in Qiyang Palace. Xie Xuanchen was already in trouble, and the emperor didn't want to see a baby born with Xie Xuanchen's blood. Although Xie Xuanchen doesn't seem to be able to make people pregnant right now, what if?
The emperor didn't want to gamble, nor dare to gamble. However, these subtle troubles are hard to say. Empress Dowager Lu saw the emperor's unspeakable thoughts and instructed her female officials to go out of the palace to solve the hidden dangers of the emperor.
According to the imperial physician, Xie Xuanchen had at least three or four days to wake up, so Sun Daizhao brought the Juezi Tang with confidence, and wanted to take advantage of Mu Mingtang's solution these days. As soon as the row of dazzling and shining needles were laid out, which woman could hold it was not as good as a bowl of jewel soup. After all, with Xie Xuanchen's body, it was impossible for her to have an heir in her life.
Anyway, the result is the same, why do you want to fight the Emperor Dowager? Also save the suffering of skin and flesh. But Mu Mingtang chose the needle. Sun Daizhao was a little surprised and regretful, but he was not disappointed. It seems that the young princess Qiyang won't be able to learn without some lessons.
Mu Mingtang cooperated by herself, and everything is easy to say. She didn't cooperate, and she just suffered from some skin and flesh, and then was given medicine. This is the result that the emperor wants, no matter what he does, the ending will not change.
No one thought that Xie Xuanchen would wake up. It was originally a clever plan to share the worries of the sage, but now it has become sewage that is poured on the emperor. No matter what the emperor thinks, the reputation of murdering the Qiyang prince must not be confirmed. If they don't handle it cleanly, let alone meritorious service, it would be an extravagant hope to keep a whole body.
Every one of them understood this truth, so when King Qiyang asked, so many people rushed to agree. In the end, Sun Daizhao overwhelmed everyone. She had the highest status and the highest status. Only when she came to suffer, could King Qiyang calm down.
When Sun Daizhao was drinking, many people inside and outside the house turned their faces and couldn't bear to look. When the last drop was finished, Sun Daizhao fell to the ground instantly, unable to retching, and soon, her abdomen began to cramp.
Sun Daizhao shrank into dried shrimps on the ground, and couldn't help rolling, Xie Xuanchen just watched coldly. He stood up slowly, not knowing whether it was to the grandson on the ground or to someone else: "I don't want to dirty my hands today, and leave your dog's life for the time being. Put your hands clean in the future, and dare Do it to my people, and I will vomit whatever I let you eat."
When Xie Xuanchen spoke, there was no blood on his face, and his lips were pale. A pale face, cold eyes, and a mole was spotted under him. The whole person is like a ghost in the water, cold and unspeakable.
After he finished speaking, he raised his eyelids to Mu Mingtang, still looking cold and tired of the world, and stretched out his hand to Mu Mingtang: "Let's go, I will take you home."
Obviously it was a cold tone, but listening to Mu Mingtang's ears, it was instantly like a March spring breeze, the ice disappeared and the snow melted. Mu Mingtang's eyes suddenly brightened, and immediately ran over to him, holding onto his hand.
"Well, let's go home."
