Reborn as the first poisonous concubine

Chapter 202 Thanks 2
Shen Rui and Wei Zijin didn't wait too long in the palace, Xiao Jingyao came out from the inner room alone.

"Brother Shen and Madam Ling have been kept waiting for so long..." Xiao Jingyao smiled apologetically to Shen Rui and Wei Zijin.

Shen Rui hurriedly put down the teacup, pulled Wei Zijin to stand up together, and thanked Xiao Jingyao: "Don't dare, it's the lower officials who bothered the prince... The lower official came to the door with his wife this time, because he wanted to thank the prince for his kindness to his wife last time." A helping hand!"

"It's a trivial matter, it's just a matter of raising one's hand, so what's the point?" Xiao Jingyao waved his hand, smiled indifferently, looked at Wei Zijin inadvertently, and after seeing her appearance that seemed to be thinner again, an inexplicable feeling appeared in his heart pity.

"I wonder if Mrs. Shangshu is feeling better?" Xiao Jingyao asked politely, not wanting to show his emotions too much.

Wei Zijin raised his eyes flattered, and met Xiao Jingyao's deep gaze, and his anxious and concerned expression before he passed out in the palace that day appeared in his mind!
That kind of gaze made her feel dazed... How long has it been since she saw such a frightened yet gentle gaze? !
She didn't understand why he was still so special to her after she had changed her identity and was no longer the Li Jingyou who was her childhood sweetheart!

She wanted to detect a clue from his eyes at this moment, but his expression was calm as usual, as if the eyes he saw when he fainted that day were just her illusion!

Wei Zijin gave a wry smile in her heart, she shouldn't think too much... Xiao Jingyao has always liked to make friends with virtuous talents, and he and Shen Rui have also made friends for a long time, and his concern for him is just out of politeness, because she is Shangshu Shen Rui's lady!
"Thank you, my lord, for your concern. My concubine is much better..." Wei Zijin lowered his eyes, suppressed the disappointment in his heart, and replied respectfully.

Xiao Jingyao responded lightly, then waved and ordered the old butler of the palace to bring an exquisite wooden box of red ochre.

"There is a thousand-year-old ginseng inside. It is useless for me to keep it. I will leave it to Mrs. Shangshu to replenish my body..." After Xiao Jingyao finished speaking, the old housekeeper opened the wooden box and showed it to the prince and Shen Rui. A precious thousand-year-old ginseng.

Shen Rui never expected that the King of Luoyang would give this great gift, so he waved his hands and declined politely: "Thank you, my lord, but this thousand-year-old ginseng is too precious, and I have no face to accept it..."

He brought Wei Zijin to the door to thank him, originally to thank the King of Luoyang for rescuing Wei Zijin who was vomiting blood in time, but who would have thought that the King of Luoyang would actually give him such a precious thousand-year-old ginseng!
"How can a thousand-year-old ginseng compare to the friendship between brother Shen and this king?" Xiao Jingyao laughed heartily twice, seeing that Shen Rui still hesitated, and said: "This king knows that brother Shen is an upright official, but Madam Ling vomited blood that day, her body needs a good mend after all!"

When Shen Rui heard what the King of Luoyang said, he was moved, but also a little ashamed. He was moved by the King of Luoyang to appreciate him, and he made a courtier of him a confidant, and he was ashamed that his concern for Wei Zijin was superficial!
He kept saying that he cared about her, but he didn't really think that her body needed these high-quality supplements!

"I have no choice but to turn down my disrespect. Thank you, my lord, for your reward!" At this time, if he declined again, it would be a bit artificial, and he hurriedly thanked him gratefully, and took the red ocher wooden box containing thousand-year-old ginseng from the old housekeeper.
