Donggong Zhangjiao

When watching Pei Yao leave, Qiu Baolin's face was full of reluctance.

After the people left, he rushed into the room anxiously, picked up the bronze mirror and took a closer look at his appearance.

"Rongxiu, have I become ugly? Why did the emperor just say that I don't look as good as yesterday?"

"No, Baolin." Rongxiu hurriedly shook his head, "Baolin's appearance is still the same, it's just..."

"Just what? Just say it quickly, don't hesitate!"

Qiu Baolin turned to look at Rong Xiu with an anxious look on his face.

Rongxiu pursed her lips, "It's just that compared to when she took Meigu Pills, after taking the medicine, Baolin's complexion became more rosy, her skin became more delicate and smooth, and her eyes were bright, like a pool of autumn water. Baolin was always beautiful, But after taking the medicine, you will become even more beautiful, so I think it is probably for this reason that the emperor does it."

"Because the Emperor has seen me in a more beautiful form, he feels that my normal appearance is a bit different." Qiu Baolin continued.

The bronze mirror he was holding on to was released and placed back on the table.

Qiu Baolin sat down with a solemn expression.

"What should I do? There is only one pill left. Your Majesty is used to how I look after taking the pill. What will I do if I don't have any pills to take in the future?"

"Why don't Baolin go to Concubine Yan and ask for it?" Rongxiu whispered, "Although this medicine is complicated to make and expensive, it is not impossible to make again. Concubine Yan wants to help you get favored, so she will definitely help you. Yes, maybe she has more than these six pills in her hand. How long will six pills last? Is it really enough?"

When Qiu Baolin heard this, his eyes lit up again.

"You're right. When the last medicine is used up tomorrow, I will go look for her. She has smallpox. Don't die. It's a waste of such a good thing. The prescription is lost."

As long as she has this medicine in hand, she can always maintain her beauty and her grace will last forever.

Thinking of this, Qiu Baolin's face gradually showed a smile again.

Yining Palace.

"Your Majesty, please drink some water, your lips are dry." Liuli helped Linchan up and said softly.

Lin Chanqiang cheered up and took a sip, "How are the preparations going?"

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, the slaves and slaves have all been arranged, but the plan may have to be carried out in advance." Liuli said.

Lin Chan frowned, "Is she going to use the last Feigu Pill?"

"Yes." Liuli nodded, "My servant has heard about it. The emperor went to comfort Qiu Baolin today and told her to have dinner with her at Jingqian Palace tonight. By then, he will definitely stay and sleep with her."

Hearing this, Lin Chan's face became more solemn.

"It's true that I'm a little anxious. The emperor really doesn't care about me at all. I'm still suffering from smallpox, and he still has the heart to favor his concubines."

"Don't be sad, Madam. After all, you have no friendship with the Emperor."

Liuli comforted in a low voice.

Lin Chan only smiled faintly, "Of course I won't be sad anymore. I should be happy. After so many years, I can finally leave this hellish place."

Back then, Lin Chen gave her a task like this and forced her to do it. How difficult it was to assassinate the monarch of a country. Lin Chen himself was the monarch. How could he not know?
  Especially in a foreign country, I have no power at all. The only people I can trust are the two dowry maids, A Jin and Liu Li.

Pei Yao didn't let her get close to him at all. Pei Yao had hundreds of pairs of eyes staring at him every time he had to pay for food and clothing. He checked every day to see if it was possible to harm the concubine secretly. Doing anything was really impossible for a princess from a foreign country like her.

The only chance he has is to use his own body to make a fuss while sleeping.

It's a pity that Pei Yao won't let her sleep with him at all.

It is difficult to find a chess piece that is willing to listen to her and is easy to use.

He was stupid and refused to completely listen to her arrangements. Fortunately, she waited for Qiu Baolin, otherwise she would have been looking for him for a long time.

"At the end of the Chou period and the beginning of the Yin period, when people are most asleep, we can set off." Lin Chan ordered in a low voice.

Liuli nodded, then worried, "But it will take five or six days for the effects of the medicine to wear off, so I'm worried that you won't be able to hold on."

"Don't worry, I can do it." Lin Chan closed her eyes and took a deep breath, "How are Ajin's preparations going?"

"Everything is ready." Liuli responded. Linchanchan nodded, "Okay, let's sleep for a while first before we talk."

Hearing this, Liuli helped her lie down again, covered her with a quilt, and retreated.

As night fell, the harem fell into a moment of calm.

The next day.

Qiu Baolin was radiant again.

I have to go to Jingqian Palace to have dinner with the emperor in the evening, which is another opportunity to be favored.

She was so good-looking that when he said hello in the morning, not only Fang Yun stabbed her a few times according to his usual practice, but even Lan Liangyuan couldn't help but feel sour.

But Qiu Baolin didn't care anymore, she only wanted to be favored.

No, in the evening, she put on a purple chest-length skirt and went to Jingqian Palace with a slim waist.

In the Yuzhang Palace, Fang Yun teased Rong Rong with the dried meat specially made in the small kitchen, with a slightly teasing smile on his face.

"But we have to work hard for the secret guards around the emperor again."

According to what Pei Yao told her, Qiu Baolin thought that she had used something like a beauty potion on her body. If Pei Yao hadn't been prepared for it and asked Guo Yuan to make a sachet to resist the beauty potion and wear it on his body, it would have been really amazing. Not easy to deal with.

And every time the secret guard came to deal with Pei Yao, it was a sign of being unable to control his emotions and showing signs of being addicted to seductive drugs.

Love potions are always harmful to the body.

"The emperor will naturally not put himself in danger." Qingrong also smiled.

However, what the master and servant did not expect was that this time the secret guard brother not only worked hard, but also lost his life.

In the dormitory of Jingqian Palace with the lights out, Qiu Baolin panicked when he noticed something was wrong with the man pressing on him.

"Come here, come here, call the imperial physician, call the imperial physician, the emperor is not well!"

Hong Zheng, who was standing guard outside the door, was also shocked. He ordered Fuxi to go to the side hall to call Pei Yao, while he quickly entered the house alone.

After lighting the candlestick next to the bed, they saw the man lying on the bed, already lifeless.

Qiu Baolin pulled the quilt to cover her naked body, her face was full of horror, but when the candlestick was lit and she saw clearly the appearance of the man on the couch, she was even more shocked.

"Who is he? He is not the emperor. Where is the emperor? Eunuch Hong. What is going on? I am here to serve the emperor."

"Qiu Baolin was frightened, so he took the person down and took care of him."

At this moment, Pei Yao's voice appeared at the door.

Qiu Baolin was completely stunned. Before he could say anything, Fuxi quickly stepped forward and blocked his mouth with a handkerchief, pulled off a piece of clothing, wrapped the person in a haphazard manner, and dragged him out of the dormitory.

At the same time, Judge Guo was quickly secretly called to Jingqian Palace.

After seeing the death of the secret guard, he looked ugly.

"Back to the emperor, this man died of a sudden wind. After diagnosing his pulse, it was found that the love medicine had been accumulated in the body for many days, and it completely broke out today and could not be suppressed."

Upon hearing this method of death, Pei Yao's face darkened for a moment.

He took a deep breath and suppressed his anger.

"Hong Zheng, make good arrangements for his posthumous affairs, and if you urgently recruit an imperial doctor, just say that I am suddenly unwell."

"Yes, the servant obeys!"

Hong Zheng did not dare to delay and went immediately.

In less than a cup of tea, the entire harem knew that the emperor had become seriously ill in the middle of the night and summoned the imperial physician.

Needless to say, all the concubines rushed to Jingqian Palace. Only Concubine Yan from Yining Palace did not come because she had smallpox. (End of chapter)
