In the bedroom of Weiyang Palace.

Zi Qiu took the ice cube and carefully applied it on Su Qingyao's knee. Although Su Qingyao didn't kneel for a long time, there was still a small amount of swelling.

"Master, please be patient." Zi Qiu looked at Su Qingyao's knees and still couldn't help but feel distressed.

She had been serving Su Qingyao since she was a child, and what she was most afraid of was that her master would be injured. She thought that now that her master was in the position of a noble concubine, she would never be hurt again, but she didn't expect that her master would still be...

Su Qingyao looked calm, half sitting on the bed. It was fake that her knees didn't hurt, but she still had a faint smile on her face.

Hearing the footsteps approaching from far away in the hall, Su Qingyao raised her eyes and saw that Rumeng was walking in with a basin of warm water.

Rumeng put the water on the bedside, soaking rose petals in the warm water. Rumeng soaked the handkerchief, soaked it for a while, then wring it dry, and handed it to Su Qingyao with both hands, "Master."

Su Qingyao took the handkerchief, wiped her face and hands, then handed the handkerchief to her and asked, "Are all the young masters asleep?"

Now Rumeng mainly serves the two little ones, and usually does not serve Su Qingyao anymore, but she is still the eldest maid of Weiyang Palace like Ziqiu.

"Master, when the second princess first came today, she cried for a while, but the third princess took out her own gadgets and let her play with them. The little masters played with them for a while, and the second princess became happy."

"After dinner, the third princess took the initiative to invite guests. Now the two princesses are resting in the third princess's palace."

Su Qingyao nodded. Now that Concubine De is like this, Wen Jing will definitely not be able to go back. Let her stay here for a few days.

Rumeng came into the palace today to serve, mainly because she was worried about Su Qingyao. At this moment, she and Ziqiu were kneeling in front of the bed, covering Su Qingyao's knees.

"Your Majesty, you have really suffered today. I will ask the imperial kitchen to make up for you tomorrow."

Su Qingyao was amused by Rumeng's words, "I am not suffering today, because I have to do this."

Zi Qiu was more or less aware of Su Qingyao's thoughts, so she took the initiative to ask, "My Lady, you were certain that Your Majesty would save Lady De Fei, so you did this favor, right?"

When Zi Qiu said this, Rumeng suddenly realized, yes, Concubine De was at fault, but with such a powerful family supporting her, how could His Majesty really let her die like this?

Su Qingyao nodded, agreeing with Ziqiu's statement.

"Today, I can clearly see how angry His Majesty was when he found out that Concubine De used folk remedies to have children. I can confirm that at that moment, he was really angry. Why did he have to dismiss Mingxin? Isn't it just because I'm angry? A concubine who has no possibility of having children at all takes folk remedies to have children. She should have no other reason except that she wants to borrow a child to gain power, and the mother is more valuable than the child. "

"Ye Jiu has told me about this matter a long time ago. I have been thinking about how His Majesty will react when he finds out about this matter. I guessed it right. He is very angry and disappointed."

"But just like Ziqiu said, Your Majesty will definitely save Concubine De. First of all, it is because Concubine De is guilty, but the crime does not lead to death. If His Majesty insists on letting her fend for herself, then he will not save her. Already?"

"Today it is the Crown Princess who begs for mercy, then tomorrow it may be Prime Minister Gu and General Shangguan, and the day after tomorrow it may be the eldest princess and the consort, as well as the entire Gu family. Think about it, if these people all kneel in front of Your Majesty, begging Your Majesty for help. What should Your Majesty do to save Concubine De?"

"He won't let things get to this point. Maybe his anger has subsided long ago. What he needs is a step up."

"I feel that if Prime Minister Gu and General Shangguan enter the palace tomorrow at most, he will definitely save Concubine De, and tonight is my chance."

Su Qingyao laughed when she thought about it.

"I and Concubine De don't have any deep hatred like Concubine Zhou Shu and Empress Chun Zhao Yiren. The current suspicions and calculations about each other are just because there is only one person in this phoenix position."

"Now that Concubine De has made such a fuss, I'm afraid she has no chance of succeeding in the throne. She will no longer be able to raise a prince. She will no longer pose a threat to this palace."

Su Qingyao exhaled softly, "I can't understand today whether your majesty gave me an opportunity or a test."

"But no matter what it is, Master, you have to do this, right?" Zi Qiu analyzed carefully.

"Yes, if I don't do this, Your Majesty must think that I want Concubine De to die, and I'm afraid that Concubine De will really hold a grudge against me when she wakes up."

"If I will plead for Concubine De, it means that Concubine De owes me a favor. Concubine De has a strong family background and will definitely remember what I have done for Concubine De. At least Gu Feier has seen it with her own eyes. "

Su Qingyao thought about everything that happened today. If she hadn't knelt down, Emperor Yinde would have had some objections to her in his heart even if he didn't say anything.

So she said, today's injury was worth it.

"Your Majesty, where can your Majesty go to find a famous doctor for something that even Wu Yuanjian can't do anything about?" Rumeng was still puzzled.

Su Qingyao smiled, "Where are the famous doctors? It's just that in the hands of His Majesty's secret guards, there are precious antidote pills that can cure hundreds of poisons. If I am not wrong, when Prince Chongheng was poisoned, His Majesty ordered Eunuch Li to get it This is what came.”

"I heard Ye Jiu say that there are very few pills. Maybe your Majesty only has three or five."

Rumeng nodded, so that's it.

"Okay." Su Qingyao was indeed sleepy, "I'm a little tired, so you should step back."

"Sister Ziqiu is tired today, I'll help you stay up late at night," Rumeng said.

Ziqiu refused to leave, and the two stayed on watch together.

After Su Qingyao fell asleep, the two little girls looked at her distressedly.

The master has ascended to a high position, but with the power he brings, there is also more fatigue.

Concubine De woke up slowly the next day at Shenshi. When she woke up, she found that no one was waiting in the palace. Only her sister Gu Feier was sitting beside her bed, seemingly asleep.

Concubine De raised her hand slightly, and Gu Feier woke up immediately, "Sister, you finally woke up. I'll get you a glass of water."

Before she could stand up, Concubine De grabbed her arm, "Fei'er, what's wrong with me?"

Gu Feier was silent for a while before saying, "Sister, you have been poisoned. Your recipe for childbirth is incompatible with the food you use."

Concubine De was a little shocked and immediately frowned, "Does Your Majesty know?"

Gu Feier nodded feebly. Yesterday she saw with her own eyes how angry Emperor Yin De was.

"If it hadn't been for the pleading of the noble concubines and your majesty to save my sister's life, I'm afraid my sister would have lost her life now."

Gu Feier said and asked Concubine De, "Why do you use that kind of thing!"
