In the harem, there are four concubines under the empress and Concubine Su.

Concubine Wan, the birth mother of the third prince, was not born high. When she entered the palace, Concubine Wan's father was only a seventh-rank county magistrate. Compared with Concubine Hui, who also came from a low background and entered the palace as a concubine, she was also the biological mother of the seventh prince. , are all quite a bit worse.

Concubine Yun is the second prince's mother, but a year ago, she was exposed by Ji Wuhen's plan to have fun with a group of concubines in the mansion on the first emperor's day, and even drunk when she worshiped the first emperor. Angry, he directly demoted him as a commoner and imprisoned him for life.

The last virtuous concubine is a bit special, she is the biological mother of Princess Fuchun, and the only concubine who became a concubine without giving birth to a prince. Later, the family suffered a series of changes, and this virtuous concubine invited herself to become a monk to practice. Therefore, Princess Fuchun was raised by the Queen Mother, and she moved back to Concubine Xian's former residence after reaching her age.

After the second prince's accident, although Concubine Yun was not implicated, her status in the palace was not as good as before. In the past year, she lived in seclusion and rarely showed up.

Why is Concubine Yun here at this time?

"Let her wait outside." The queen mother ordered.

Mother Zhao understood and came outside the hall.

A beautiful woman in a light green dress waited respectfully in the hall with her personal maid.

"Miss Lu is treating the Empress Dowager, please wait a moment, Concubine Yun."

Concubine Yun smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, the empress dowager's phoenix body is important."

Zhao mama said some polite words, turned around and went back to the hall.

Concubine Yun stroked her temples, and an imperceptible coldness flashed across her smiling face.

In the hall, Lu Xiyue pulled out the silver needles from the Empress Dowager's body one by one, and spit homemade ointment on her temples.

After doing this, she handed the ointment to Mammy Zhao, "This ointment can relieve the pain, although it has little effect, but it will be more effective if you put it on the soup. Please remember to spit on this position once in the morning and in the evening. "

She pointed to the temples on both sides of the Empress Dowager's forehead.

After listening carefully, Mother Zhao carefully put away the ointment.

After packing up the medicine box, Lu Xiyue bowed her knees to the Queen Mother: "I'll be back first."

The Empress Dowager laughed until she wanted to avoid her talking to Concubine Yun, "No need, you can just follow the Ai family, just to recognize the people in the harem, the last family banquet, the Ai family remembered that Concubine Yun did not go."

Everyone was a little surprised when they heard the Queen Mother's words.

Even Princess Fuchun, who was raised by the Queen Mother's side, had never been so considerate by the Queen Mother in the past three years.

He even wanted to personally lead Miss Lu to meet the concubines in the harem.

Lu Xiyue was a little puzzled, and she didn't want to save the queen mother's face. She put the medicine box aside and quietly followed the queen mother.

Concubine Yun waited outside the hall for about half a stick of incense, and when her legs were numb from standing, the Empress Dowager was helped out by Nanny Zhao.

Unlike in the past, on the other side of the queen mother stood a strange and beautiful girl.

"The concubine has seen the queen mother."

She bowed to the Queen Mother, lowering her head to cover the surprise in her eyes.

It turned out that the dude of Duke Lu's family had such a good-looking appearance.

Concubine Yun insists on her beauty. Unlike the others, her appearance is like a rose blooming between the cliffs. She is not only dangerous, but also has extraordinary sharpness.

It is precisely because of such a face that she can be honored and favored forever, but it is a pity that her son did not live up to it and did not end well. He is getting old, no matter how well maintained he is, there will still be traces left by the years on his face.

Even so, Concubine Yun was secretly thankful for her beauty, otherwise when the second prince had an accident, she, the mother, would have been implicated as well.

Between mother and child, if there is one safe and sound, there is a chance to stand up.

The girl's face, as bright as the scorching sun, flashed in front of her eyes, and Concubine Yun's fingertips under her wide sleeves clenched the veil tightly.

If she was young, she was confident that she would not be compared to Lu Xiyue, but when she was old, Miss Lu was still in her prime.

Looking at the exquisite eyebrows and eyes, there is a bit of Lu Guogong's shadow.

"Get up."

"Thank you, Empress."

After she sat down, the palace servants in the Empress Dowager's Hall tactfully served Concubine Yun a cup of hot tea.

Seeing the reduction of the chin, the already beautiful face appeared even more coquettish. The Queen Mother squinted her eyes, and said in a neutral tone: "It's been a long time since I saw you come out from Aijia. It seems that you have lost a lot, and you should grow more." Move around."

Concubine Yun bent her lips: "Thank you Empress Dowager for your concern. The concubine has not come out for a long time. The weather is fine today. Thinking that it has been a long time since I greeted the Empress Dowager, I came here."

"Didn't Aijia say that you have been ill in bed for a long time, so there is no need to toss back and forth."

"The minister knows."

After a few polite words, Concubine Yun looked at the girl with drooping eyes and said, "So this is the wife of King Xiao Ning. It's the first time I've met this concubine. She really looks like Duke Lu."

Back then, Lu Guogong was a famous handsome man in the capital.

Lu Xiyue frowned slightly, looked at Concubine Yun, and bowed her head as a salute.

The girl's indifferent attitude caused the smile on Concubine Yun's lips to stiffen for a moment, but soon, she returned to her original state: "To tell the truth, this concubine came here to ask for something."

After all, she stood up and saluted the Queen Mother.

"Just say what you have to say." The Empress Dowager did not change her expression, but her tone was even colder than before.

Sensing this difference, Concubine Yun's eyes lighted lightly, and the moment she got up, her brows and eyes turned red: "The queen mother knows about the concubine's body, when she was born in the second palace, she hurt her body when she was the second child. good."

She changed the second highness who almost blurted out to the second child.

After all, his son is now a common man.

"Especially in the past two years, sometimes it is difficult to get up."

Lu Xiyue listened silently, and realized what Concubine Yun meant, that Concubine Yun should be here for her.

The Empress Dowager lived in the palace for a long time and was used to various methods, so she naturally guessed a bit.

"I heard that Miss Lu's art is extraordinary, even the imperial doctors in the imperial hospital are willing to bow down, so I implore the Queen Mother, let this concubine be a part of your glory, and let Miss Lu take a good look at it for my concubine."

As she spoke, she knelt down with the maid behind her.

Tears were streaming down that gorgeous flowery face, probably because of perennial illness, and after just saying these two sentences, his face turned pale from exhaustion.

In the main hall, except for Concubine Yun's soft sobs, everyone held their breath tightly and did not dare to breathe out.

The Empress Dowager pursed her lips and looked at Concubine Yun who was kneeling in front of her without saying a word, her dark eyes were calm and without any emotion.

"Girl Lu, what do you think of your medical skills, are you sure you can cure Concubine Yun?" The Queen Mother threw this question to Lu Xiyue.

Lu Xiyue was startled, and immediately understood that the Queen Mother was planning to let herself be the villain.

She was bitter in her heart, there were indeed many twists and turns in the harem, and she had only been here for a few days, and trouble came to her.
