Self-cultivation of male support

The day before yesterday, Du Mu and Man Niang had carefully sewed and spent more than ten days to make a suitable dress for Shi Yan. When Shi Yan wore it, the ethereal temperament became more and more obvious. Sometimes I felt that this person It is very unreal, and it feels like walking with the wind at any time.

In the past, when people have no choice but to try on clothes, they always say one or two sentences similar to: make it ready and put it away, and just put it on when you wear it.

This time she didn't say anything, and was quietly dragged by two women to try on clothes.

Mother Du's eyes were slightly red, she turned her back and breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and said to Shi Yan with a smile: "A Yan, this dress looks good on you, why don't you wear it today!"

Shiyan didn't know how Du's mother was feeling. There might not be a perfect balance between the child she worked so hard to raise and the master who swore her allegiance to the death, so she chose to guard silently.

Manniang's eyes sparkled and she said to Shiyan: "Sister Ah Yan, you look so good today!"

Shiyan is used to Manniang's daily confession, looking at the dark and frightening face in the mirror, it doesn't match the good looks, and I really can't compliment the aesthetics of the two.

But she did not refuse their request, wearing this dress to meet Lu Hongshao at Cheng's house, and wearing another dress to pick up Du Shiyou at the gate of the Imperial College.

While sitting idle at home, he pointed to the hanger and said to Manniang who helped clean up the room every day: "I really like these two sets of clothes. I don't need to put them in the cage. I put them on the hanger beside the bed so that I can change them at any time."

Manniang had unconditional trust in Shiyan, and when she heard this, she smiled and agreed: "Then I'll help the lady iron it and put it in order, so it's convenient when you wear it!"

Shi Yan narrowed her eyes slightly, flipped a page of the book in her hand and said: "It's not necessary, maybe it won't work after a few days!"

Manniang was puzzled, she seemed to say something casually, without any explanation, she shook her head, and continued to tidy up the room cheerfully.She must take good care of sister Ah Yan, so that even if she gets married in the future, she will not be willing to abandon herself, and she will take herself with her wherever she goes!

With this big wish in her heart, the little Manniang sighed again why her lady is not a man. If she was a man, she must work hard to marry her!That way, he can follow the lady for the rest of his life and be inseparable from her.

Shi Yan spent five days working hard, and finally in the evening when the whole family had dinner together, he spat out a mouthful of blood on the dinner table and slowly fainted to the ground.

The way they lay down silently made the whole family feel like the sky was falling.

Not only the sky of the Du family fell, but the queen of Ganquan Palace was so shocked that she dropped the glazed cup when she heard about it.The queen didn't know whether it was aimed at herself or someone was targeting Shi Yan. There is too little information to judge at present, so she can't use the forces she is familiar with.

"Let people outside the palace find a trustworthy doctor to check the pulse. Yuchen, you go out of the palace and see for yourself that the child is fine before you come back. Send a letter to the palace every half an hour." The queen's face was pale, but very Soon it stabilized.

It took five days for Shiyan to sleep, ordinary doctors couldn't find out the cause of the disease, the shopkeeper of Xiaoxiuzhuang went the way of the fifth princess, and invited the imperial doctor from the imperial hospital, but he didn't know the way.

Eunuch Yuchen waited for five days, and finally an old man with gray hair and trembling walk came, and he hurriedly sent someone to carry the old man on his back and rush all the way into Du's house.

After these five days of torture, the Du family was haggard and tired, and none of them looked good. Seeing that the man brought by the father-in-law next to the fifth princess, they didn't say anything, and directly invited someone in to give Shi Yan a pulse diagnosis.

Eunuch Yuchen made a slight modification and stayed in Du's house in the name of the eunuch next to the fifth princess to help find a famous doctor in the capital, but with little success.

Until now, no one even knew what went wrong with Shiyan.

Every time there is a new doctor, the family welcomes them with hope and sends them away with great disappointment, which has become the norm for the Du family.

Du's mother's anxious lips turned dry, and her face was sickly. Du's father didn't care about the little awkwardness between him and Du's mother. In a hurry, go eat and sleep first, A Yan is still waiting for our help.

If you fell down at this time, what can I do to call Ah Yan? "

The truth is this truth, everyone understands it, but it just can't be done.

The family entered Shiyan's boudoir with Eunuch Yuchen and the doctor who needed to be carried on his back.I saw the old doctor tremblingly feeling his pulse, shocked for a while, shook his head for a while, thoughtful for a while, and nodded for a while, everyone's hearts raised to their throats following his movements.

It took a full cup of tea time before the old doctor turned around tremblingly, and silently prescribed a prescription to Man Niang, whose eyes were swollen from crying, and said: "Fry one bowl with three bowls of water, and drink it when it is warm." Next, take it for three days to see the effect of the medicine."

Manniang thanked the doctor, and ran away with the prescription.

It was only then that the old doctor said to everyone in the same low-spirited voice under everyone's expectant eyes: "This is poisoning, poisoning caused by mutual restraint of drugs.

Make a crime, make a crime, such a small doll, suffer this crime, make a crime! "

Eunuch Yuchen was startled, and said to the old doctor, "Why did you say that, sir?"

The old doctor gave Yuchen a dissatisfied look, and then reluctantly said: "This girl should be born very beautiful, in order to cover her face, you give her some medicine that can darken her skin for a long time.

Although the medicine is harmless to the body, taking it for a long time will not do much good. The medicine alone is nothing, at most it will make the girl look a little darker.

But she was given another medicine that could make her body weaken slowly and silently. Although the dose of the medicine was slight, one or two meals was just a feeling of wanting to sleep more for ordinary people.

But this little girl has been weak since she was a child, and this little medicine almost killed her!What is not sin? "

Yuchen heard that someone had given Shiyan a medicine that could make her body weak quietly, so she glanced sharply at Du's mother.Du's mother was startled, and just as she was about to explain, Du's father stood in front of Du's mother, staring at Yuchen with an unkind expression, and silently confronted him.

Seeing this situation, Du's mother had complicated emotions in her heart, and finally held Du's father's hand, walked out from behind him, and said calmly to Yuchen: "Elder-in-law, since the doctor said so, please ask the old man to check it out. Check it out, what Ah Yan ate and used that day should be worn, but I have made people look at all the things she has touched."

This is natural, even if Du's mother doesn't say anything, Yuchen will still investigate.

Du's father kept looking at Yuchen, Du's mother, and Shiyan lying on the bed, and really didn't understand the connection between them.

Only Du Shiyou is the one who is really stupid. In his memory, his younger sister Shiyan has been black since she was a child. She may not be dark now when she was a child, but in his memory, she has never been white and tender like other little girls. .

But even then, my younger sister is the best younger sister, smarter, more sensible, capable, and kinder than other girls.It turns out that she is not only not black, but also very beautiful. Did her parents make her dark to cover up her beauty?

No, no, judging by Daddy's expression, he must have just realized this fact.

Then this matter was the mother's decision alone, and it was at this time that Du Shiyou suddenly remembered that he and Shi Yan were not blood siblings, but half brothers and sisters.

But no matter what Du Shiyou was thinking, he did not delay Eunuch Yuchen's actions at the scene.

He saluted the old doctor silently, the meaning was self-evident.

The old gentleman also saw that the little girl lying on the bed was of extraordinary status, if not, who would Yuchen be?The number one eunuch next to the empress is someone who is always polite to the Duke, how can he show more concern to a little girl whom he has never met before?

But he can live to such an old age because he never meddles in other people's business.

Accompanied by Du's family, the old doctor checked all the things that Shiyan touched on the day he fainted, but found nothing, and finally returned to the room where Shiyan lived, walked around the room twice, and finally passed the clothes hanger , stopped suddenly, closed his eyes and carefully discerned.

After opening his eyes, he pointed to the two sets of clothes that Shiyan asked Manniang to put on the hanger a few days ago, and said, "Take these clothes off, old man, and have a look."

If this is a normal man who asked to see the clothes worn by the little girl, he would have been beaten out as a hooligan long ago, but this old man was invited by the father-in-law of the fifth princess's mansion. He obviously has two brushes, and no one dared to say more What to say, Mother Du turned pale, and quickly took off the clothes and handed them to the old man.

Then, under Yuchen's suspicious eyes, he explained weakly: "This is the dress material that the fifth princess came to visit that day. I saw that it matched A Yan's complexion very well, so I rushed to make two dresses with the maid at home overnight. Ah Yan.

As expected, Ah Yan liked it very much. She wore it for five or six days in a row, during which time she refused to even change into other clothes. "

Mother Du's words were cryptic, but Yuchen instantly understood the origin of the fabric. It was clearly something that the empress had specially asked people to add. It looked inconspicuous. It was a special silk that only she could use in the whole world. It was soft and comfortable. It can emit a soft light under the sun, and if it is placed among so many gifts, people who don't know the goods naturally don't understand what the purpose is.

But Xiuhe only needs one glance to understand.So I made it myself for Shiyan to wear.

Yuchen's face turned cold in an instant, if there was something wrong with the queen's clothes, they would know nothing about it...

He also thought of the occasional weakness or drowsiness of the empress recently for no reason.

It may seem like a minor problem, but if... the things inside are too scary.

Therefore, while the old doctor was carefully examining the clothes, Du Mu and Yuchen stared at him closely, hoping to hear an accurate answer with their own ears.

In the end, the old doctor slowly put down the clothes in his hands, and said to several people: "If the old man is not mistaken, this kind of silk is woven from a special kind of silkworm, because of its small quantity, it is extremely precious.

If there is no accident, someone gave silkworms a special poison, so the silk spit out by silkworms will also have this medicinal property, and the silk can be made into a piece of cloth or a piece of clothing. The medicinal effect lasts for a long time and is very weak. Normal doctors can't find it, and I'm afraid it's not good to add up.

If it weren't for the old man's naturally sensitive nose, and knowing the source of the problem to find the root cause, he wouldn't have discovered the problem today. "

The old doctor said very firmly: "It must be the problem of the silk. Now it seems that the body of this girl is weaker than the old man thought. The old man thought that she was poisoned by taking a little medicine, but it turned out that she had been smelling it for a long time. After five or six days, this insignificant taste became what it is today."

The old doctor sighed deeply, he already knew the origin of this silk, the silk in the world is only used for queens, it seems that he was still involved in this muddy water.

Du Mu and Yuchen's faces turned white instantly.

Yuchen resisted the thought of going straight back to the palace now, and asked the old doctor calmly: "Sir, will Miss Du recover?"

The old man froze for a moment and shook his head.

The whole family looked at him in puzzlement and anxiety.

The old doctor hesitated for a moment.

Father Du said: "Sir, please be honest, we just want to know the truth, no matter what, we will face it together with our children."

Then he heard the old doctor say: "It's nothing else, it's about the fertility issue, it may be affected."

The Du family, including Yuchen, all looked like the sky had fallen.

The old doctor looked angry, and said angrily: "Isn't it just that you can't have children! Is having children more important than life?"

This is not true, but the question is, can he compare like this?

No matter how Du's family is, Shi Yan lay on the bed and listened to the conversation in the room clearly. It is not in vain that she reminded the queen to be careful of the harem, and at the same time solved the problem of getting married in the future.

Thinking about it, the empress would never force her to get married no matter what in the future, so it should be regarded as an advance payment for saving the empress.

The queen not only didn't want to force her to get married, but her heart ached so badly that she wished she could send all the good things to Shiyan.Shi Yan's encounter was to prevent disaster for her and save her life!

Hearing Eunuch Yuchen's report, the queen ordered people to investigate secretly. According to the old doctor, they should start from the source and find out the real culprit quietly.

At the same time, I feel so guilty that I almost lost my way, and my daughter lost the qualifications to be a mother.The good things were quietly sent to Du's house under the name of the fifth princess as if they didn't need money.

Shiyan lay on the bed and played chess with the system for five days. The system didn't win a single game, and the bullied child burst into tears, saying that he had a shadow on playing chess, and Tongsheng stopped playing chess.

To be honest, her body was not weak, but in order to achieve the goal, it is not difficult to slightly change the pulse when the old doctor is checking the pulse.

I can finally wake up today.

When Shi Yan slowly opened her eyes, Man Niang's saliva flowed out while lying on the bedside without realizing it.

Du Shiyou's eyes were red, staring at the sky in a daze.

Hearing the movement, he slowly turned his stiff neck and saw his younger sister who was blinking at him. Du Shiyou opened his mouth several times, but didn't say a word.

The eye sockets were even redder, and there were faint tears flashing away.

Shiyan watched Du Shiyou close his eyes fiercely for a long time before opening them, got up stiffly and walked over, almost fell halfway, but Du Shiyou didn't care, squatted on the head of Shiyan's bed, lightly Carefully touching her head, then squeezed her hand, silently said with her mouth: "It's good to wake up."

Shi Yan thought to herself, this time it was Du Shiyou who needed to see a doctor instead of her, she was too excited to speak, which frightened the whole family.

However, there is almost no need for a doctor's diagnosis and treatment. Du Shiyou was at Shiyan's bedside, listening to Manniang's vivid description of what happened at home in the past few days when she was in a coma with Shiyan. She always felt that what Manniang said was different from what he knew. Several times Tried to interrupt but to no avail.

The last time I heard Manniang say that Du Shi was so anxious that she almost cried and looked so stupid, she finally couldn't bear it anymore and said two words: "Nonsense!"

Heal without medicine.

The news that Shiyan woke up was sent back to the palace in less than two quarters of an hour. The queen was very happy and ate an extra bowl of rice at noon.

He asked the eunuch in a quiet tone: "How is the investigation going? I will definitely tear this person into pieces to avenge my Ah Yan."

Talking about this matter, the joyful atmosphere disappeared in an instant.

The eunuch's waist was bent even lower, and his tone was calm: "The people over there reported that since two years ago, the eunuch next to His Majesty has been going to the silkworm house every month, and nothing can be changed."

The queen snorted coldly, it really was him.

"This move is really sinister, if it wasn't for Ah Yan who accidentally hit and saved Bengong's life..."

The queen's fingers tapped lightly on the table, which was a small movement when she was thinking about the problem: "It seems that our majesty wants to get rid of this palace without anyone noticing, so the reason can only be explained by Liu The concubine is related.

Is this person crazy? "

Yuchen reminded: "My Lady, do you still remember Concubine Xian? I will report this morning that Concubine Xian is insane. Your Majesty is merciful. Let her be taken care of again and again. Don't wait too long."

After being reminded like this, the queen was shocked and remembered one thing.

Concubine Xian's natal family is powerful, with a flamboyant personality, ambition, and cleverness. Almost everyone knows that she wants to give birth to a son and inherit the throne.

In the palace, before Concubine Liu entered the palace, there were not concubines who were not pregnant, but they were all brutally murdered by the virtuous concubine.

The queen pondered, the reason why Concubine Liu has been barren is probably because she blocked Xian Concubine's eyes when she and the Emperor saw each other for a while, and Xian Concubine let someone do it. The Queen has no conclusive evidence for this matter, but The truth is not much different from what she guessed.

In the following days, Concubine Xian gave birth to five princes and nine princesses.

"The fifth prince fell off a horse three years ago and was paralyzed by accident. He lay in bed all day without moving. Qing, so far there is no sign of improvement." Yu Chen bent down and said.

Yuchen's meaning is very simple. If the emperor really did something to murder the queen for Concubine Liu, then the concubine Xian who did that to Concubine Liu would be even more unforgivable. The two children, the two children had accidents one by one, so that Concubine Xian collapsed.

What happened in it is very intriguing.

The queen stopped tapping her fingers, and said lightly to the eunuch: "Find a chance, avoid everyone, and I will go to the Xianfei Palace to have a look in person.

Our Majesty, when he is crazy, he is really inhuman, and I don't know if the late emperor will regret seeing his ancestors with shame when he sees him now.

But his feelings are really disgusting! "

"If you want me to tell you, you can't marry your majesty if you marry anyone. It's been eight lifetimes of bad luck to be her wife and concubine. Guess what, I heard what the eighth princess said. Back then, the matter between your majesty and Concubine Liu caused a lot of trouble in the world. Everyone knows that for the sake of Concubine Liu, she disregards the face of concubines from the Six Palaces."

Lu Hongshao heard that Shiyan's health was improving, so she came here to visit her and told Shiyan about the gossip she heard recently.

"It's just out of my mind. This is what people say about occupying the latrine and not shitting. Did the concubines enter the palace because of him? It was for the glory of the family, for the glory and wealth, for the power and status!

Which of those concubines' natal families has not made great contributions to today's world?People don't want to be a good wife, but enter the palace as a concubine for him, naturally to give birth to a prince and princess, hoping that the prince will one day ascend to that position, and make his family a higher level.

It's not a girl who has no power, no power, a small family and a small family and no knowledge, it's really for him.

Most of the concubines entered the palace just like that marriage. Both parties had a tacit understanding. In the end, His Majesty enjoyed the benefits brought by the beauty's family, but he didn't want to respond to the corresponding power of the other party, and unilaterally tore up the covenant. There was something wrong with it. "

Shi Yan felt that Lu Hongshao was a very courageous girl, and it was rare to see people who dared to blatantly complain about the emperor these days.

Patted the back of Lu Hongshao's hand, indicating that enough is enough.

Lu Hongshao chuckled: "I'm just talking about it in front of you, sister. Others want to hear it, so I don't dare to say it yet."

Lu Hongshao herself was also surprised. She had held these words in her heart for many years, and no one dared to say them. She thought she would hold them in for a lifetime, following her into the ground, but every time she saw Shi Yan, the words in her heart would come out of her mouth naturally.

Regardless of whether this complaint is right or wrong, Shiyan can always tolerate her.

Shi Yan is more than tolerant of her, she also complains in her heart, as far as she knows, the emperor has done more than this. After the death of Concubine Liu, the emperor has been silent for two years. The younger sister of her natal family was taken into the palace to take care of her, and she was named a little nobleman, and the two gave birth to the sixth prince.

It is the sixth prince who finally became the prince in the plot.

All right, no one will expose the shameful little thoughts in the emperor's heart, but to be honest, as long as there is no second concubine Liu, he can do whatever he wants, and everyone will live in peace without disturbing each other.

Everyone entering the palace was not really competing to have a relationship with him, what everyone was fighting for was to sleep with him and have a child, and the best child could inherit his throne.

As for someone in his heart, whoever he loves, does he really think that everyone likes to fall in love with a stubborn and domineering old man who looks like that?I'm not sick.

But you said, it’s not that there is no one left in Renliu’s family, it’s not that the family is too poor, and it’s not that there are no parents and brothers in the family. Ren is a big and famous family in the local area. Because of Concubine Liu’s relationship, the local magistrate has to give way to the Liu family. , such a girl from someone else, what do you need to be taken care of by an old man?

Wouldn't it be nice to find a young man of the same age, who can speak sweet words, is romantic and gentle?Do you have to be taken care of by a bad old man like you?I will still be your concubine and be taken care of by you!

After all, it's just selfish.There was no achievement in the government, half of the court was secretly emptied by the empress, and the harem was in chaos, which was also controlled by the empress.

Really with that sentence, what's the use of him?

For the behavior of the emperor, Shi Yan really doesn't like it, and I don't know where the queen in the palace has found out, and whether he can kill this trash as soon as possible.
