Chang Anqing

Chapter 193 Behind the scenes
Seeing that the Lantern Festival is only a few days away, the palace has already replaced the red Fushou dragon and phoenix lanterns, and hung up all kinds of newly made lanterns this year, including square, hexagonal, octagonal, silk and glazed lanterns. , some depict pictures of palace ladies, and some depict mountains, rivers, sun and moon. It is really dazzling and dazzling.

Therefore, the palace people from various palaces and courtyards went back and forth to watch, although the festival had not yet arrived, they all looked brisk and with unconcealable joy.

But in comparison, these days are much harder for Lingqi Palace.

Although the snow has stopped today, the weather is still gloomy. At this moment, the Lingqi Hall is extremely quiet. Compared with the previous days of singing and dancing, it seemed unusually deserted.

The maids and servants guarding in front of the hall were all stern, not daring to make a sound, and the hall was even more oppressive and dull at the moment.

As soon as you walk in, although it is still luxurious and gorgeous, it is always as if a string is stretched, making people feel uncomfortable.

Under the bright light decorated with pearls and jade, Yue Chongyi was sullen, frowning, leaning impatiently on the red sandalwood inlaid yellow rosewood marble beard bed, with his left hand bent casually on the leading pillow, beside He Lianna gently applied the ointment with half-bent knees.

Borrowing the light and shadow, Yue Chongyi's complexion became more and more unwell, only to see that there were a few small red bumps on her face, which was always as delicate as fat and beautiful jade, and the blisters on her lips made her mouth red and swollen a lot.

Yue Chongyi, who has always cherished the beauty, can't stand these things, so her temper has become more and more serious these days, and she feels like eating firecrackers every day. If she is not happy, she will reprimand and beat the people around her, which makes her highness Lingqi They were all trembling, like walking on thin ice, but He Lianrong and Helena, as the people around them, had to accompany and carefully serve them.

"hiss--"

Just as Helena was supporting her trembling legs and applying medicine for Yue Chongyi, she heard Yue Chongyi suddenly make a sound, and Helena's back tensed. When she instinctively wanted to kneel down to plead guilty, Then he was slapped with a "slap--" and his cheeks were tingling with burning pain and numbness, and his ears were also buzzing, and only Yue Chongyi's cursing could be heard.

"It's no big deal, did your hands get burned with a soldering iron? If you can't use it, just fold it! What else can you do with it!"

"Princess, spare your life, princess, spare your life, and this servant will never dare again."

Seeing Helena who got slapped but didn't care about the pain, instead was nervous and frightened to plead guilty, Helian Rong couldn't help being scared and nervous, but thinking about the arrangements at the Lizheng Hall, she tightened her hands after all, be careful He said: "Princess, I see that although the medicine prescribed by the Imperial Medical Office has some effect, but it is not right. The Imperial Medical Order has always been skilled in medicine and has the most senior qualifications. Why don't you invite him to take a look?"

After all, He Lianrong took a peek at Yue Chongyi's face again, and added just now: "Your Majesty has always thought about you, so I'm sure you won't refuse."

Hearing He Lianrong's words, Yue Chongyi's originally angry expression barely eased a bit.

Even if she is reduced to Chongyi now, she is still a Turkic princess, and she believes that the emperor would not be able to say no to a small imperial physician order to treat her.

At that time, let Liu Gong take a look, no matter when she is, she is an existence that cannot be ignored or despised.

So, under the sign of Yue Chongyi, He Lianrong recommended himself to invite the emperor's grace, and after the imperial physician ordered Sun Zhong to take the pulse of Yue Chongyi, he concentrated his mind and said: "Chongyi is very angry." , I am not in a good mood, because of the spicy and fishy food I eat on weekdays, it is not a serious problem—"

"Okay, okay, I'm tired of listening to your clichés, how can you completely cure and eliminate the things on my face?"

Seeing that Yue Chongyi interrupted his words impatiently, Sun Zhong was not surprised, he just nodded respectfully and said: "Although this disease comes on fiercely, it is easy to cure. Don't worry about Chongyi. I will prescribe some medicine for you. Decoction, just pay attention to your diet on weekdays."

Hearing Sun Zhong's words, Yue Chongyi managed to suppress his temper, and He Lianrong looked at it, and said in a timely manner: "I don't know, is there a decoction that is more effective?"

Sensing the gazes of Yue Chongyi and Sun Zhong, He Lianrong said nervously again: "Our princess is not even eating well because of blisters on her mouth these days. I don't know but faster medicine can also make the princess feel better. Good to eat?"

Hearing He Lianrong's concern, Yue Chongyi was finally satisfied, then frowned and looked at Sun Zhongdao: "What A Rong said is true, just follow the imperial physician's order."

Otherwise, with such a face every day, how could she meet the emperor?Staying with the emperor?
"Well, the medicine does exist, but the property of the medicine is more domineering than the ordinary medicine Xiahuoliangserum poison—"

Hearing Yue Chongyi's master and servant's proposal, Sun Zhong spoke carefully and earnestly. When he looked at Yue Chongyi's unkind eyes, he said again: "However, the princess is strong, and taking this medicine is not a problem. There is no bad effect, but if there is a slight discomfort, it is still necessary to stop the medicine in advance and ask the minister to replace it with a new medicine."

"Okay, okay, got it."

Yue Chongyi couldn't listen to Sun Zhong's nagging, so she waved the person back, and after serving Yue Chongyi to rest, Helian Rong just retreated, and when she returned to the room, she saw that she was sitting in front of the makeup mirror and was smearing the pan. The red-cheeked Helena walked over and said, "Is your face better?"

Helena shook her head angrily when she heard the words, with tears still in her eyes, Helian Rong said helplessly when she saw this: "Don't be sad, but since our princess entered the palace, she has always been suppressed by the Palace of Qingsi. , My heart is naturally uncomfortable, before Concubine Shu accompanied His Majesty to sacrifice and was praised by all the ministers, but our princess was demoted because of the death of a little servant girl, so it is even more unhappy, so you also-"

Helena held back her tears when she heard He Lianrong's words, and immediately blurted out: "Don't worry, I understand the difficulty of the princess, but that concubine Shu is really a fox-like character, and her Aye is just a minister. The princess is the treasure of the Great Khan, how can she be compared with our princess, if she were placed in Turkic, she would have been whipped by our princess many times with a horsewhip."

Seeing the simple-minded Helena say these words, Helianrong smiled and didn't say much, and only comforted her: "It's good that you understand in your heart, the princess has already fallen asleep right now, you can go to Shanghua in a while. The pharmacy will keep an eye on the preparation of the medicine for the princess, and bring it to the princess herself when she wakes up, seeing your sincerity, today's grievances will be worth it."

Hearing He Lianrong's sincere comfort and reminder, Helena's eyes flickered immediately, she stretched out her hand to hold He Lianrong's hand and said: "Sister is kind to me, I remember."

"Let's go then."

Seeing Helian Rong reminding herself with a smile in front of her, Helena nodded immediately, put on some powder just now to barely cover the redness and swelling on her cheeks, and retreated.

He Lianrong stood on the spot, watching the figures disappearing at the door bit by bit, her hands were slightly clenched, and finally she turned her head and stopped looking.
