"I'm willing to gamble and admit defeat." Shu Shi looked straight into Su Qingwan's eyes, which said inviolable indifference "But you have to remember, I didn't lose to you, Su Qingwan, but to humanity." Greed. The people around me have their own thoughts, and I use them so that we both lose. You are lucky. The person next to you has the same heart with you, but is there no one around you who has two hearts? ?"

"Maybe, but I won't be as aggressive as you." Su Qingwan raised her head and looked at Mu Luoluo who was standing beside her, with a smile on her face, "If you don't give someone a chance, it doesn't matter if you have evil intentions? It's just a dog." There is nowhere to bite the bastard."

After Su Qingwan finished saying this, Mu Luoluo couldn't help laughing. This is probably the only common saying that Su Qingwan learned, which is not as dignified as the eldest lady.

"Come on, let's send Mrs. Shu to the cold palace, I'm tired." Su Qingwan waved her hand, Mrs. Shu is very smart, there are some things she doesn't need to know anymore.

"Su Qingwan!" Shu Shi was dragged away reluctantly by the little eunuch, her shrill voice seemed to pierce through the roof, "Although I have lost! But I don't accept it! Days and nights in the cold palace, I will always Immediately curse you! You will never get what you want in this life! As long as you are alive, I will pray every day! Until you die, or I die!"

Su Qingwan grabbed Mu Luoluo, who was about to bet on Shu's mouth, and shook her head lightly towards her: "Forget it, let her go, control what I want, and now I have tightly grasped it in my hands." gone."

"You dare to say that I'm a thing, I really spoiled you." Mu Luoluo looked back, and raised her hand to scratch Su Qingwan's bridge of nose.

"If you say you're nothing, it's not unreasonable." Su Qingwan laughed, and then looked at the mess in her eyes, and couldn't help sighing, "Looking at it now, Shu Jiujiu is actually a person who can afford to put it down. Chaotian, it wouldn't cause trouble like it is today."

"Do you really think that she will let it go like this?" Mu Luoluo frowned slightly, "I always feel that there is some hidden worry."

"It's not that I believe in her character, it's just that even if she feels unwilling, there is nothing she can do in the cold palace." Su Qingwan pursed her lips and smiled, "Okay, let's go, the sucrose pears stewed in the small kitchen are already sweet and glutinous. Go back and eat some, so you can calm down."

Mu Luoluo suppressed the worry in her heart, taking a step back, it was just soldiers coming to cover up the water and soil, live well in the present, and plan for the future.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty is coming." The little maid hurriedly opened the curtain and came in, and said to Ruan Jieyu.

"Your Majesty, why is this hour here?" Ruan Jieyu was also shocked when she heard the words, she hastily pulled out her hand, and took the handkerchief from the little maid.

"Your Majesty seems displeased when you look at Your Majesty." As soon as the little maid finished speaking, a little eunuch lifted the curtain and the emperor came in.

"My concubine came to see His Majesty, but I didn't know His Majesty was coming, and I didn't go far to greet her, so I hope Your Majesty will forgive me." Ruan Jieyu didn't care to wipe her half-washed hands, and hurriedly blessed her body to salute, thinking about what the little maid said just now, she was suspicious.

"Get up." The emperor waved his hand and sat down on the couch. "What are you doing?"

"Yesterday Hehua went to the Imperial Garden to play around, and picked a lot of pomegranates and came back. I looked at the bright red and lovely, thinking that it would be a pity to let it wither. Let some juice come out, whether it is fragrant or rouge, it is all good. Excellent." Ruan Jieyu smiled, turned around and told the little maid to remove the things from the table and replace them with tea sets.

"It's better for you to be quiet here and not be annoying." The emperor let out a long sigh of relief, his frown relaxed slightly, and he stretched out his hand towards Ruan Jieyu. Let someone bring it to you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Ruan Jieyu put her hand in the emperor's palm, let him hold it, and sat down next to the emperor, "The concubine is watching His Majesty frown, I don't know who is so presumptuous, dare to annoy His Majesty?"

"Shu's fake pregnancy, intending to cheat, was caught by Qing Wan, and the law was rectified in front of me." The emperor squeezed Ruan Jieyu's hand, probably because of the good maintenance on weekdays, Ruan Jieyu's ten fingers were extraordinarily soft "closer Over the past year, Qingwan has become more and more indifferent to me, and I can't see her through more and more. There is such a big commotion this time, and I don't know what she is thinking."

"Concubine Shu was punished for not reporting the truth a few days ago. This time, she just showed her loyalty to His Majesty." Ruan Jieyu smiled lightly, she understood why the emperor came here, and at the same time, she couldn't help lying about Su Qingwan. "Concubine Shu's body is weak, and she has suffered from migraines in recent years. It is inevitable that she will be biased in her dealings with others. She is indifferent to His Majesty."

"How many medicinal materials have been added to her body, but it is not getting better. If I have time in the future, I will definitely interrogate those quack doctors in the Imperial Hospital!" said the emperor.

"The deficiency of qi and blood is already difficult to take care of, so we can't blame the imperial physician. Maybe it will be better in three to five years." Ruan Jieyu smiled lightly, and then pretended to be careless by talking about the topic, "Speaking of Shu, it's just a matter of time." It reminds me of Sister Duanmu, and I heard that Sister Duanmu's madness is also related to Shu's?"

"Well." It's okay not to mention this matter, but when it is mentioned, the emperor is even more upset, and he doesn't want to talk too much with Ruan Jieyu, so he avoids the important thing and said, "Mr. Shu's description of Liu Bin's death is too cruel, and Mrs. Duanmu was shocked." Fear, so I lost my mind."

"My concubine is puzzled." Although Ruan Jieyu knew that the emperor was displeased, she had no choice but to fulfill Su Qingwan's request, "No one in the palace knew about Liu Bin's death. Please excuse my concubine's speculation. Your majesty has never issued an order on this matter. It must have been done by sending Baiqisi, how did the Shu family know?"

The emperor frowned again, and looked at Ruan Jieyu thoughtfully without saying a word.

After a long time, the emperor said, "I'm tired."

"My concubine will serve you for a short rest." Ruan Jieyu is well versed in the principle of pointing to the end, and since she has achieved her goal, there is no need to be too entangled. She immediately led the emperor to the inner room, and ordered the little maid to light the incense, and then quietly retreated. out.

"The palace can be quiet again for a while." Ruan Jieyu stood on the porch, looking in the direction of Xiyuan Pavilion from a distance, thinking that the place is already empty.

"My servant is stupid, I don't know how the master and Concubine Shu knew that the fact that Mrs. Shu was pregnant was a lie?" Zisu asked softly, standing beside Ruan Jieyu.

"Because she has been in the bureau since she was pregnant." Ruan Jieyu took a long breath and looked sideways at Zisu, "Do you still remember the spices I gave to Shu's? I told her that it was good for conception. that one?"

"My servant remembers that during that period, the Shu family was very favored. Every day, a bowl of birth control medicine and spices were given by the master. Not long after that, it was reported that she was pregnant." Zisu nodded, still confused water.

"If I tell you what's in that spice, you might understand." Ruan Jieyu smiled, raised her hand and tapped the tip of Perilla's nose, "You have studied medicine with me for many years, and I will test you."

"Master, tell me." Zisu was quite confident about this.

"In addition to angelica and red peony root, there are also Galla, myrobalan and ebony." After Ruan Jieyu finished speaking, Zisu suddenly realized.

"Although angelica and red peony have the effect of nourishing yin and nourishing qi, galla myrobalan and black plum are too cold and astringent medicines. If this is the case, the water of Shu's sunflower will not arrive, and it will not take too long One month is enough." Zisu said excitedly.

Ruan Jieyu put her index finger on Zisu's lips, smiled lightly and shook her head: "It's good to understand it in your heart, you don't need to explain it in such detail."

Zisu belatedly raised her hand to cover her mouth, and blinked innocently.

"Since she sent someone to announce the good news to His Majesty, she was doomed to lose." Ruan Jieyu raised her head and looked at the clouds in the sky.

Zi Su listened quietly, she knew that Ruan Jieyu didn't need to answer by herself at this time.

"I don't know when the next wind and rain will start." Ruan Jieyu said softly, as if whispering to Zisu, or talking to herself.

"Master, Concubine Shu sees you coming." Ayina said as she lifted the curtain to invite Su Qingwan in.

"Why is my sister's room so deserted? Apart from Ayina, there is no one to serve her." Su Qingwan entered the room, and what she saw was snakes all over the ground, she couldn't help but stop, not daring to go forward .Mu Luoluo subconsciously stood in front of Su Qingwan.

"Those people are just eyeliners sent by the other palace. I pretended to be crazy. I scared them away. People on the left and right are dying, and they don't need so many people to wait on them." Beauty Duanmu put down the embroidery shed in her hand and waved her hand Ayina took the snakes down, "Your Majesty, please sit down, there is no more tea, only a pot of clean water, please don't dislike me, Madam."

Su Qingwan looked at Ayina with an indescribable expression, like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, she gathered the snakes all over the ground together and carried them away.It was only heard that there were snakes all over Duanmu beauty's room, except for Ban Jieyu, no one dared to set foot there. Seeing her today, she really lived up to her reputation.

"You can sit down too." Beauty Duanmu smiled slightly at Mu Luoluo, her eyes were clear, she didn't look half crazy.

Mu Luoluo hesitated again and again, and finally took a seat beside Su Qingwan. Looking at Beauty Duanmu's expression, she probably guessed the relationship between the two of them.

"This is what you asked me to do." Su Qingwan took out a small porcelain bottle from her arms, put it on the low table, and slowly pushed it in front of Duanmu beauty, "Although this is made of medicinal herbs, it can have snake venom after taking it disease. Now His Majesty is discussing matters with the Minister in the cabinet, and no one has ever known that I came to see you today."

"So, I would like to thank you, my lady." Beauty Duanmu picked up the small porcelain bottle, unplugged it and sniffed it lightly, there was a faint fragrance, "Young lady, don't worry, I will not drag you down if I do this."

"You are a sensible person." Su Qingwan nodded slightly, and wanted to get up and leave.

"Your Majesty." Beauty Duanmu called Su Qingwan, who looked back, "I don't have much time, and it's lonely to be alone. Since your empress is here today, can you chat with me for a while?"
