Dong Gong Mei

Chapter 409: Taking Blood as Medicine
It didn't know when it was completely dark, and the palace lanterns illuminated the entire inner hall.

A dangling silver dagger was quietly lying on the black lacquered tray.

"Princess—"

The Empress Dowager raised her voice, leaned lazily on the throne, and said: "The Ai family has been sleepless lately. The imperial doctor said that it was a deficiency of Qi and blood. After drinking the medicine for several days, it did not improve. It was the real person in the palace. This is a stubborn disease of the Ai family, and it is not difficult to cure it, but it is necessary to take the woman's blood as medicine."

Her phoenix eyes squinted at Zhao Xiwei below, with a strange and sinister smile: "I wonder if the Crown Princess is willing to offer a piece of filial piety?"

Zhao Xiwei raised his head slowly, but his eyes did not fall on the queen mother's face, but crossed the golden throne and stayed on the green jade screen.

Under the screen, one can vaguely see a green skirt embroidered with dark lotus leaf patterns.

Zhao Xiwei has always been confident in her memory, not to mention that the owner of this dress was standing in front of her a few quarters of an hour ago.

Just been beaten, and become a demon again?

She squinted her eyes, and a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth.

It seems that she is too soft-hearted...

She was thinking of being a family, of having the same surname, and of being decent in the boudoir.

But I didn't expect that some people would never die without seeing the Yellow River, and would not shed tears without seeing the coffin!

Zhao Xiwei didn't answer the Queen Mother's topic, but turned around and walked towards the green jade screen.

One step, two steps, three steps...

The empress dowager's bedroom is very spacious, and she was originally standing far away, and there was a distance of more than twenty steps from the window to the screen.

She walked very slowly, deliberately leaving the other party a little room for regret.

The hem of the green dress seemed to move, and Zhao Xiwei's footsteps slowed down by two points.

At this moment, her heart is still very calm and indifferent.

Zhao Chengyu, the scourge, only wanted to plot against her, so he did not hesitate to seek refuge with the queen mother.

She really didn't pay attention to this kind of tactic of killing one thousand enemies and self-defeating eight hundred.

It's not that she is conceited, nor is she lighthearted, but she is very clear that in the eyes of the Queen Mother, a fool like Zhao Chengyu has no value to use at all.

Otherwise, when she was looking at the screen, the Queen Mother should have made a move...

Zhao Xiwei stood still in front of the screen, pretending to look at the carvings on it, and waited a little longer.

The embroidered shoes moved again, and the rustling sound of the cloth was clearly visible.

But unfortunately, a little panicked, a little scared, that person always hid behind and refused to come out.

Since she refused to come out and face it, then she can't be blamed for being merciless.

"I didn't expect to meet my own sisters here with the Empress Dowager." She smiled, and the breathing of the person behind the screen suddenly stopped.

Zhao Xiwei didn't give her another chance to escape. With a flip of his sleeves, his fingers stuck out like lightning, and he pulled out the person behind the screen.

"Zhao Xiwei!" Zhao Chengyu screamed, then stopped again suddenly, and hurriedly said: "This is in front of the Empress Dowager, don't be presumptuous just because you are the Crown Princess!"

After finishing speaking, he secretly looked at the queen mother, and saw her sitting there lazily, with a smile on her face, and seemed to agree with her words.

Zhao Chengyu took courage and stared at Zhao Xiwei viciously: "You poisonous woman! Let me go!"

She struggled a few times, but Zhao Xiwei was still firmly grasping the skirt of her clothes, and her resentment surged up again. She forgot that she was in the Empress Dowager's palace in an instant, and angrily scolded: "You have hurt Xu Xu!" The fetus in Madam's womb is almost in danger, and grandmother is afraid of your identity and dare not pursue you, but the Queen Mother will never let you go lightly!"

As soon as the words fell, Zhao Xiwei laughed out loud.

Zhao Chengyu was stunned for a moment, his blushing face turned pale in an instant, and when he recovered, he blushed quickly again.

This wild girl...she dared to laugh!

At such a time, how dare she laugh so ironically!
The hall was silent, and the dagger was still shining brightly on the tray, waiting to cut flesh and suck blood, how could she laugh!
"Zhao Xiwei! You, you are so courageous!" Looking at her raised red lips, Zhao Chengyu felt an inexplicable fear in his heart, and a voice told himself that this wild girl must start acting wild again!

But another voice told himself that this is in the empress dowager's palace, even if she had ten guts, she wouldn't dare to act recklessly!

"Zhao Xiwei!" Her eyes were swollen, and her tone became arrogant: "If you are sensible, quickly take blood for the empress dowager, maybe the empress dowager will forgive you for committing crimes against Madam Xu because of your filial piety." my sin!"

"Take blood?" Zhao Xi raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at her amusedly, retracted his fingers slightly, and pulled her into his eyes again, saying: "My sister reminded me..."

Zhao Chengyu was petite and had been raised in a deep boudoir. Zhao Xiwei grabbed her by the collar and pulled her in front of the queen mother.

"Princess Concubine!" Even if the Queen Mother wanted to pretend to turn a blind eye, she couldn't do it anymore, she lifted her eyelids lazily, and shouted in a deep voice: "This is the Changxin Palace of the Ai family, not your East Palace, you can't do whatever you want!"

"What's the queen mother talking about!" Zhao Xiwei didn't even look at Zhao Chengyu who was gnashing his teeth, just smiled at the queen mother, and then said slowly: "Although I am stubborn, I just heard that the queen mother can't sleep at night. I am extremely terrified, your old man is not in good health, how can we, as juniors, be at ease?"

The queen mother's expression sank when she heard this.

How could Zhao Chengyu let go of such an opportunity?Immediately, he struggled and said: "The Empress Dowager, she lied! She has no such good intentions! Think about it, she almost, almost caused your granddaughter to conceive!"

"Hmm..." The queen mother raised her hand and pressed it down, signaling Zhao Chengyu to shut up.

"The Empress Dowager..." Zhao Chengyu opened his mouth, and Eunuch Chang who was beside him immediately glanced over sullenly, and she shrank immediately, fearful, but unwilling to give up, so she cast her eyes on the Empress Dowager for help.

But the queen mother didn't even give her the slightest glimpse, not only didn't mean to speak for her, but raised the palm of her right hand, leisurely admiring the gold and jade inlaid finger cot, "Chang Ying, what do you think of this gold finger cot? With rubies, is it worthy of Aijia's skin?"

"The empress dowager is so blessed that any treasure in the world is worthy of it." Chang Ying smiled softly, and said again: "The gold, silver and precious stones can be worn by you, it is their practice for several lifetimes."

"Your mouth is good at talking." The queen mother smiled lightly, and then glanced at Zhao Xiwei, "However, in terms of eloquence, it is far behind the crown princess."

"What the empress dowager said is very true." Chang Ying also smiled and glanced at Zhao Xi.

Zhao Chengyu looked happy.

She guessed right!

The queen mother really wants to teach this wild girl a lesson!

Thinking about it, even Xu Yunjiao dared to hurt her, wasn't she committing suicide?
