Former Qin Fengyun

Chapter 38 The Phoenix Enters the Palace

As night fell, a court lady named Yuzhu came to Princess Qinghe and Murong Chong with a straight face, put a food box on the ground coldly, and turned to leave.At this time, Murong Chong hurriedly stepped forward, bowed his hands and said, "Sister, please stay."

Yuzhu asked dissatisfiedly, "What's the matter?"

Murong Chong took out a small gold ingot from his sleeve and put it in Yuzhu's hand, and said with a smile: "It's not a respect for a newcomer."

Yuzhu was originally a low-class court lady, so when she saw Jin Yuanbao, she immediately smiled and said, "I don't know what you can do, my lord?"

Murong Chong asked: "Where is the imperial garden?"

Yuzhu replied: "When you go out, turn right and go straight."

Murong Chong asked again: "In this harem, which lady and beauty has the most sacred heart?"

Yuzhu said with a distressed face: "The Empress Dowager ordered that you are not allowed to tell the people of Yan about the affairs of the palace."

Murong Chong was very annoyed when he heard the word "Yan Ren", but he quickly pretended to laugh and said, "That's natural."

Yuzhu said: "If there is nothing else, I will leave first."

Murong Chong bowed his hands and said, "Sister, let's go."

After Yuzhu left, Princess Qinghe asked puzzledly: "Chong'er, why do you inquire about the location of the Imperial Garden? And why do you want to know about Qin Palace?"

Murong Chong replied, "In order to get close to Fu Jian."

Princess Qinghe said: "But right now it is impossible to know who is favored? Why don't you approach Fu Jian directly and win his favor?"

Murong Chong shook his head and said: "When we first arrived at the Qin Palace, the Empress Dowager issued an edict, not the Empress, which shows that the affairs in the palace are absolutely extraordinary. If we approach Fu Jian rashly, I am afraid that moths will jump into the flames and perish. Therefore, we should find the favored one. Only by gaining trust can he gain a foothold in the palace." Then, after thinking for a while, he looked up at the psychic jade on Princess Qinghe's neck and smiled.

The next day, after Princess Qinghe dressed up, she came to the imperial garden to wait for Fu Jian.But for three days in a row, they didn't see each other.On the afternoon of the fourth day, Fu Jian took people to the imperial garden to enjoy the scenery.At this time, Princess Qinghe came over after confirming Fu Jian's clothes, knelt down and saluted and said, "The sinner pays homage to the king of heaven."

Fu Jian stopped and saw that the person kneeling in front of him was only a thirteen or four-year-old girl, so he asked, "Who are you, please raise your head and answer."

Princess Qinghe raised her head slowly, and Fu Jian couldn't help feeling moved after seeing it. This girl was really beautiful, with a well-proportioned figure and fair skin. She had a raised nose, red lips, and big eyes like stars in the sky.At this time, Princess Qinghe said: "The criminal girl's name is Qinghe, and she is from the clan of the Yan Kingdom."

Fu Jian said: "Princess Qinghe please stand up."

Princess Qinghe thanked her and got up.Then he took out a beautiful small wooden box from his sleeve and said: "The Heavenly King is kind, don't kill us. There is no repayment, so I dedicate this to the Heavenly King as a token of my heart."

An eunuch next to Fu Jian hurriedly took the wooden box from Princess Qinghe and presented it to Fu Jian.Fu Jian opened the wooden box and saw a pair of jade bracelets, three golden hairpins and a priceless psychic jade necklace inside. Then he looked at Princess Qinghe and said, "This is all your wealth, take it back to live .”

Princess Qinghe shook her head and said: "There is no need to worry about the things outside your body. If there is nothing else, Qinghe will leave." After speaking, Princess Qinghe saluted and left.

Looking at his back, Fu Jian couldn't help shaking his head with a sigh, then took out the necklace from the wooden box, and said, "Give these jewelry to other wives."

The eunuch saluted and said yes to go down.

After Fu Jian came to Fengqi Palace, Zhang Muxie saw Fu Jian's smiling face, and asked, "I don't know why the Heavenly King is so happy?"

After Fu Jian lifted her up, he put the necklace on her hand.Zhang Muzhen, who has read countless treasures, couldn't help but widen her eyes, and looked at the necklace carefully, and saw that the chain body was made of extremely thin gold and silver threads, and there was a piece of ancient beautiful jade that was crystal clear and flawless in the middle.Therefore, she asked curiously: "I wonder where the king of heaven got this beautiful jade?"

Fu Jian replied: "It's presented by Princess Qinghe of the State of Yan." He put the necklace on Zhang Muzhen's neck, nodded frequently and said, "It's beautiful!"

The careful Zhang Muzhen asked tentatively, "I don't know why you offer such a generous gift?"

Fu Jian replied: "Thank you for not killing me."

Zhang Muzhen nodded thoughtfully.At this moment, Princess Fu Bao of Shunyang and Princess Fu Jin of Gaoyang walked quickly to Fu Jian, raised their small faces and said coquettishly, "Father, play with us!"

Fu Jian smiled and took the little hands of the two children, and said, "Let's go!"

But Zhang Muzhen was touching the necklace, thinking silently.

The next day, Zhang Muxi greeted Queen Mother Gou as usual.After Empress Dowager Gou let him lie down, she noticed the necklace on her neck, so she asked, "Isn't this necklace something from the Qin Palace?"

Zhang Muzhen nodded and said: "This is the gift of Princess Qinghe of Yan Kingdom to the King of Heaven, and then passed it on to my concubines."

Empress Dowager Gou asked in surprise: "There is such a thing?"

Zhang Muchai replied: "It's absolutely true, it's rare that Princess Qinghe is so caring."

Empress Dowager Gou's face sank like water, and she didn't say a word.

Seeing this, Zhang Muxi got up and saluted, "The concubine will leave."

After a stick of incense, Princess Qinghe was drinking tea with Murongchui.Suddenly, Ping'er, the maid in charge of the Empress Dowager's Palace, walked in with a tray in her hand, followed by several eunuchs.Princess Qinghe and Murong Chong hurriedly got up and saluted and asked: "I have met this sister."

Ping'er turned her nose to the sky and said: "The queen mother heard that Princess Qinghe is weak, so she gave me a bowl of ginseng soup."

Princess Qinghe hurriedly knelt down and saluted to thank her, then took the ginseng soup and wanted to drink it.But he was stopped by Murong Chong who was at the side, and he said to Ping'er with a smile: "My sister, Miss Huang has already had a few cups of tea, if I drink ginseng soup again, it may not be effective. Why don't you drink it later?"

Ping'er immediately said angrily: "Bold, how dare you resist the order!" As soon as the words fell, several eunuchs came over with fierce eyes.Princess Qinghe was afraid that things would become serious, so she immediately drank the ginseng soup.Seeing that she drank the ginseng soup completely, Ping'er smiled with satisfaction and said: "This is worthy of the Queen Mother's grace."

Princess Qinghe said: "Thank you Empress Dowager for your kindness, Qinghe will be..." But before she finished speaking, she suddenly cried out in unbearable pain and passed out on the ground.Murong Chong hurried forward to hug Qinghe, then glared at Ping'er.

But Ping'er said dismissively: "He is really unlucky, he can't even afford a bowl of ginseng soup!" After speaking, he took the eunuchs away.

Murong Chong pinched Princess Qinghe hard with his hands, and kept yelling.After a long time, Princess Qinghe regained consciousness, but immediately cried out in pain, clutching her stomach, "It hurts!"

Murong Chong, who was at a loss, said anxiously: "Sister Huang, I'll go and pour you some hot water." Princess Qinghe, who was pale and sweating, nodded slightly.Murong Chong gently put down Princess Qinghe, and when he got up to pour boiling water, he suddenly discovered that there was a large piece of blood under Princess Qinghe's body.Murong Chong yelled: "Sister Huang!" Then he knelt down and hugged Princess Qinghe and wept bitterly: "If I had known this, I might as well have died in the first place!"

Princess Qinghe shook her head slightly and said: "Chong'er, don't be sad. This is the path chosen by the emperor herself, and it has nothing to do with you. One day, Yan will be restored, and Qin will definitely be destroyed!"

Murong Chong nodded with tears streaming down his face.

Yu Zhu, who was in charge of delivering the meals, hadn't reached the door when she heard Murong Chong yelling.So he walked in very unhappy.Just when he wanted to reprimand his eyes for being rude, he saw Princess Qinghe lying in a pool of blood.

After Murong Chong saw Yuzhu, he immediately put Princess Qinghe down, knelt and kowtowed in front of her, and said, "I beg my sister to call the imperial physician quickly to save my imperial sister."

Yuzhu, who is not bad by nature, nodded and said she was leaving.

Yuzhu, who is eager to save people, runs all the way, but unexpectedly bumps into Xixue, the maid in charge of Zhang Muzhen.When Pinger saw it was Xixue, she hurriedly helped her up and apologized repeatedly.

Xi Xue said with some displeasure: "You have been in the palace for many years, but why are you so impetuous?"

Yuzhu hurriedly saluted and explained: "I was eager to save people, but I ran into my sister by mistake. I hope my sister will forgive me."

Xixue asked puzzledly: "I don't know who is in trouble?"

Yuzhu replied: "Princess Qinghe of Yan State. Elder sister, if something else happens, younger sister will go first." Then she bowed and left.

Xixue, who returned to Fengqi Palace, seemed bewildered because she had something on her mind.Seeing this, Zhang Muchai asked, "What happened?"

Xixue hastily saluted and said, "Xixue is being rude, and I ask Madam to come down."

Zhang Muzhen smiled slightly and said, "Forgive your innocence, get up and answer."

Xixue thanked her and stood up and replied: "This servant just met Ping'er by chance and learned that Princess Qinghe of Yan State is in danger."

Zhang Muzhen was taken aback, and said to herself: "I thought the Empress Dowager would drive this girl out of the palace, but I never thought that she would be killed." So she stood up and said to Xi Xue: "Human life is at stake, let me help you." Snow nodded yes.

At the same time, Yu Zhu who came to the imperial hospital immediately walked up to the extraordinary medical doctor Zhang, saluted and said: "My maidservant has seen Zhang imperial physician."

Imperial Physician Zhang said, "Young lady, why are you here?"

Yuzhu replied: "Princess Qinghe of Yan Kingdom is bleeding for unknown reasons, so she still wants to move."

Upon hearing this, Imperial Physician Zhang curled his lips and said: "The people of Yan Kingdom should have died!" After speaking, he walked away in a huff.

Ping'er was so angry that she stomped her feet and said: "All plants and trees have their lives, how can we turn a blind eye!"

At this time, the elderly Qin Taiyi sighed softly, then walked over and said to Ping'er: "If you don't mind, I am willing to go with the girl."

Ping'er nodded repeatedly and said, "Thank you, Imperial Physician Qin."

Accompanied by Xixue, Zhang Muzhen came to Si'en Courtyard, and saw Murong Chong who was hugging Princess Qinghe and passed out. She saw that Princess Qinghe's face was ashen and her dress was covered with blood, but she still couldn't hide the truth. beauty.Zhang Muxie blamed herself inwardly, "I really shouldn't have been suspicious back then, and let her go to this point."

Murong Chong, who noticed that someone was coming, immediately raised his head, and saw a middle-aged woman in luxurious clothes standing in front of her, especially with the psychic gem necklace of Princess Qinghe around her neck, so she concluded that the middle-aged woman in front of her was A young woman must be Fu Jian's favorite person.So, he knelt on the ground and begged weakly: "Please save my imperial sister!"

At the same time, looking at the handsome young man in front of him, Zhang Muxie couldn't help saying to himself, "I never thought there would be such a beautiful young man in this world. If this Princess Qinghe is a beautiful girl, then this young man will die of anger." Song Yu is the most beautiful man ever."

At this moment, Yuzhu rushed to Si'en Courtyard with Imperial Physician Zhao, and when she saw Zhang Muxie here, she hurriedly saluted and said, "My maidservant pays homage to Madam."

Zhang Muxie who came back to his senses said: "Thank you, the imperial physician, treat me well."

Qin Taiyi saluted and said yes, and then came to Princess Qinghe's side, first took out a silver needle and pierced her.Suddenly Princess Qinghe yelled softly: "It hurts!" Then she slowly opened her eyes and found herself lying on the ground, Chong'er kneeling beside her, and a noble lady standing not far away, especially the necklace around her neck.

Imperial Physician Qin checked Princess Qinghe's pulse again, but after a while, he showed embarrassment.

Zhang Muchai immediately asked, "How?"

Doctor Qin replied: "Returning to Madam, this disease is caused by eating a lot of safflower, which leads to blood collapse. Although life can be saved, there is no possibility of conception in the future."

When Princess Qinghe heard this, two tears of grievance fell down.

After Zhang Muxie heard it, she felt very regretful, and said to the palace people beside her, "Put the princess back to the bed quickly." The palace people saluted and said yes.Then she said to Imperial Physician Qin: "Use the best medicinal materials and be sure to cure it." Imperial Physician Qin saluted and said yes.

Murong Chong, who was kneeling beside him, immediately kowtowed and said, "Thank you Madam for saving my life."

Zhang Muchai said: "There is no need to say thanks, please get up quickly."

Murong Chong thanked him and got up.

Zhang Muchai asked, "Who are you?"

Murong Chong fell to the ground respectfully and replied: "The villain Murong Chong."

Zhang Muzhen nodded slightly, then turned to Xixue and said, "Xixue, take care of the siblings."

Xixue nodded in agreement.

Zhang Murong said to Murong Chong again: "If you have something to do, you can go to Fengqi Palace."

Murong Chong saluted and thanked Zhang Murong and left with others.

Half an hour later, Princess Qinghe, who had taken the good medicine, turned blood slightly.Only then did Murong Chong feel relieved, then got up and untied the pendant, walked up to Yuzhu and bowed and said, "Thank you for saving my life, sister." After speaking, he put the pendant into Yuzhu's hands.

But Yuzhu returned Peiyu to Murong Chong and said: "Saving someone's life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. Besides, after a few days of getting along with each other, I will know that you are definitely not evil people, so Peiyu must not be kept."

Murong Chong shook his head and said: "This statement is wrong. If there is no sister today, the life of the emperor is in danger. I hope my sister will accept her."

Seeing his sincerity, Yuzhu said: "Forget it, use Peiyu to exchange some nourishing ingredients for the princess to recover from her illness." After speaking, she was about to leave, Murong Chong saluted again and thanked her.

After Yuzhu walked away, Murong Chong sat down by the bed and blamed himself: "Miss Huang..." He didn't finish.

Princess Qinghe said with a smile: "There is no need to say more."

Only then did Murong Chong stop talking.

Princess Qinghe said: "If you lose your horse, you will know that it is not a blessing. Now that you have found this person, you need to get close to him."

Murong Chong nodded and said: "Chong'er will definitely not let Miss Huang suffer this crime."

Princess Qinghe nodded in satisfaction.

Ten days later, Yuzhu came to Si'enyuan with the soup.Murong Chong hurriedly took it with both hands and said, "Thank you, sister."

Yuzhu smiled and said, "I don't know how your son is?"

Murong Chong nodded and replied: "It's improved a lot, sister can rest assured."

At this time, Princess Qinghe who heard Yuzhu's voice came out quickly, and said with a smile: "Sister."

Seeing her ruddy complexion, Yuzhu said confidently, "It's really good."

Murong Chong asked tentatively: "The soup was given by the Empress Dowager, but my sister dared to help. Aren't you afraid that the Empress Dowager will blame you?"

Yuzhu replied: "The queen has been ill in bed for a long time, and everything in the palace is taken care of by the queen mother. But because the queen mother doesn't like to do things herself, she doesn't care if it's not a big deal. □□a bowl instead of safflower."

Murong Chong nodded, and then said: "In Fengqi Palace, Mrs. Zhang has a gentle and generous temperament, so I want to pay a visit to Huangjie in the afternoon to express my gratitude."

Yuzhu nodded and said: "It should be so, if there is nothing else, I will leave first."

Murong Chong and Princess Qinghe bowed their hands and sent it off.Looking at the back of Yuzhu leaving, Princess Qinghe said: "When I first arrived in the Qin Palace, she treated you and me very meanly, but now..."

Murong Chong said: "Yuzhu's nature is not bad. She treated her like this at the beginning because of the Queen Mother's order. Now after the incident with the safflower, I know that you and I love her, and Mrs. Zhang has taken good care of her, so that's why."

Princess Qinghe nodded.
