Yuehua Palace, inside the Nuan Pavilion.

Qin Shu just came back. She just lay down on the rocking chair here and was about to pick up the book she had not finished reading and read it when Cao Chang came in from outside.

Cao Chang bowed and said: "Concubine Chen, Eunuch Gao who is beside the Queen is here."

Qin Shu sat up again, sat down on the main seat over there, and asked Cao Chang to bring the man in.

Eunuch Gao walked into the Nuan Pavilion and saw the person sitting on the main seat in the middle. He walked forward and saluted respectfully.

"This servant wishes to express my regards to Concubine Chen. May Concubine Chen be blessed with peace of mind."

Qin Shu said calmly, "Get up."

Eunuch Gao: "Thank you, Concubine Chen."

Qin Shu coughed lightly and then asked, "The Queen ordered you to come here, but do you have anything to give me?"

Eunuch Gao: "Concubine Chen, the Queen has asked her servant to come here to deliver a message. Tomorrow is New Year's Eve. At the New Year's Eve banquet, Concubine Chen is also requested to attend on time. Of course, the Queen ordered her servant to come over and want to ask more questions. Concubine Chen, I wonder if Concubine Chen is in good health. If Concubine Chen finds it difficult to attend the banquet, the Queen has also said that Concubine Chen can stay in the palace."

Qin Shu: "Thank you for your concern, the Queen. Everyone is here at the New Year's Eve banquet. It would be inappropriate if I am the only one absent. Please go back and tell the Queen that I will be there on time tomorrow."

Eunuch Gao: "Yes, I understand. I still need to go to other palaces to send messages, so I will resign first."

Qin Shu: "Well, Eunuch Cao, send Eunuch Gao out."

Cao Chang: "Yes."

Then, Cao Chang sent Eunuch Gao out of Yuehua Palace, and then came directly to the Nuan Pavilion, "Concubine Chen, when Eunuch Gao left just now, he intentionally or unintentionally asked the servant a few questions about your situation, Concubine Chen. The slaves have coped with it."

Qin Shu: "Don't pay attention to these, everything is as usual."

Cao Chang: "Yes."

After Cao Chang exited the Nuan Pavilion, Xinlian and Xinyi, who were standing nearby, looked at each other. , the Queen has already agreed that your Majesty will go to Fengyang Palace, and today I specially sent someone to tell you, does the Queen not want you to attend?"

Qin Shu: "The eldest brother is currently in the capital. The eldest brother has come to the capital to report on his duties. Previously, the eldest brother was in the northwest, and his military achievements are there. The eldest brother is in the capital. In the eyes of the queen, the emperor will always think about Duke Dingguo. The military achievements of the palace, and as long as I show up, the emperor will take care of this level no matter what, whether it is the queen or Concubine Lan, they don't want to see me favored."

Xinyi said smoothly: "It's a pity that everything can't go as they want. In the harem, the only person who is truly favored from the beginning to the end is you, the empress. Even before all of them, you are the only one who is truly favored. In their eyes, your poor health and frailty are not what they think. They have no comparison with you."

Xin Lian also echoed and said: "No, it's a shame that the Queen and Concubine Lan, in order to plot against each other, also thought of using your level to frame each other, but little did they know that their plan had already been in your eyes, and they wanted to do it. The only thing you can do is to draw water from a bamboo basket in vain, and eventually fall into the trap and get stuck in the mud."

Qin Shu smiled lightly and didn't go into details. She just lay on the rocking chair and read the book in her hand, leisurely and comfortable.

……

Over here, Fengyang Palace.

After Eunuch Gao came out of Yuehua Palace, he went to each palace to send messages to the young masters of each palace, and then returned to Fengyang Palace.

"Queen, my servant has sent word to all the palaces about the New Year's Eve banquet tomorrow."

Wang Wanning looked at the people in front of her. She didn't care about the rest of them. The only one that could interest her was Concubine Lan. But now Qinchuan is in the capital, and Qinchuan is in the northwest with outstanding military achievements. This time he In the capital, especially today when the emperor summoned Qin Chuan, he even summoned Qin Shu to have a meal with him during lunch. This shows that in the emperor's heart, the Qin family is very important.

Even though Qin Shu is a sick child, purely from this aspect, according to Liu Fu's argument, Qin Shu has no competitiveness at all in this harem, but during this period, Qin Chuan is here, and the emperor has to take Qin into consideration. If the emperor is interested in Qin Shu, she will definitely pay more attention to Qin Shu. If this really causes the emperor to have more thoughts about Qin Shu, that is not what she wants to see at all.

Eunuch Gao looked at the Queen and said nothing. He was the personal eunuch in front of the Queen. He could guess a lot of her thoughts, especially today's matter. Even if he didn't say much, he could understand that he was not ambiguous. , and then said: "The Queen, Concubine Chen said that she will attend the New Year's Eve banquet tomorrow. However, when I left Yuehua Palace, I asked some indirect questions from the servants of Yuehua Palace."

"According to the people at Yuehua Palace, Concubine Chen always takes soup and medicine from her mouth every day. Even the slave saw it clearly just now. The slave only stayed there for a short while, and Concubine Chen coughed countless times. , obviously I went out at noon and got some wind. Concubine Chen’s body, you don’t have to worry about it at all, Queen Mother, but Concubine Lan..."

Wang Wanning frowned slightly, "How's it going?"

Eunuch Gao said truthfully: "I can't tell you. I just see that Concubine Lan's complexion has improved a lot. Has the hospital found a way to recover Concubine Lan?"

Wang Wanning had a serious look on her face. No one knew the reason behind Concubine Lan's incident, but based on the situation in the harem, everyone felt that she was the one who did it secretly. She also took the blame, but she could make Concubine Lan do it again. There was no possibility of childbearing, so it was okay to forget about it, because this incident was worth the loss of the Su family and the loss of Concubine Hui for the Yushitai to target her father.

But now it is said that Concubine Lan is recovering well, so everything before has been in vain, and it has cost them so much. She will never allow such a situation.

Lingqian and Lingxi were waiting nearby. Even if the Queen didn't speak, how could they not understand that what Eunuch Gao mentioned was far more important to the Queen than Concubine Chen.

Immediately, Lingqian spoke: "Mother, Imperial Physician Liu said before that Concubine Lan's body could not be cured even by the gods. How could it have recovered in this short period of time? Could there be something inside?" Is there anything else fishy? Your Majesty, how about I go to the Imperial Hospital to call Imperial Doctor Liu, and then I can ask Imperial Doctor Liu the whole story?"

Wang Wanning composed her thoughts, kept herself steady, and said firmly: "Go and ask Liu Fu to come over."

Lingqian responded quickly, "Yes, I will pass it on right away."

Seeing this, Lingxi said cautiously: "Mother, you know the medical skills of Imperial Physician Liu. Even Imperial Physician Liu said that. How could Concubine Lan have that kind of ability? Even Imperial Physician Zhou's medical skills were excellent, but... There is no one who is above Imperial Physician Liu. Even Imperial Physician Liu said he was helpless, how could he be turned around by them? Please be at ease, I will wait until Imperial Physician Liu comes and ask questions confidently."

Wang Wan Ning didn't speak, her face was cold. No matter what Liu Fu said later, it seemed that the things she should start with must be pushed forward as soon as possible. She must not let Concubine Lan have any chance.
