The concubine is so charming

Chapter 67 You hurt me, I'll poach your heart

The clothes I wore last night were too tattered to be worn anymore. Fortunately, Yufu knew the situation here, and sent two clothes. The clothes were very light. The wound that hurt her arm.

It took more than a quarter of an hour for Su Yao to change her clothes, and the cold sweat on her forehead became more profuse. She took out a silk handkerchief and wiped off the sweat little by little, and then walked towards the Queen Mother's residence with the hand of the maid. go.

At this time, the emperor was sitting beside the empress dowager's bed, booing and inquiring about her health: "The empress dowager is resting well. I have asked the best imperial physician in the imperial hospital to wait in the Ci'an Palace at all times, and select the best medicinal materials and send them to her."

Nanny Qi came in and reported: "Report to the Emperor and Queen Mother, Miss Mu is here."

The emperor turned his head: "Didn't it mean that Mu Ninghua was injured? How come you can get up now?"

The queen mother's eyes suddenly sank, and after a while she returned to her usual gentle and calm appearance: "Didn't the Ai family tell her to take a good rest? Why did you come here in such a hurry? Doesn't the wound on her arm hurt?"

Hearing this, the emperor couldn't help but wonder in his heart, could it be that Su Yao's injury is not as serious as what the imperial doctor said: "Let her in."

Mu Qingchen's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he couldn't help but turned sideways, staring at the door eagerly.

Su Yao, who was dressed in thin plain clothes, walked slowly into the hall. Her complexion was as pale as if transparent, her breathing was a little short, her body was on the verge of falling, every step she took was extremely hard, but she was extraordinarily firm and stable, with bloodless lips He sipped it slightly, with a hint of stubbornness.

The emperor's brows moved slightly, looking at her, he couldn't help but said: "The injury is so serious, why is it difficult to rest in the palace?"

Su Yao didn't bow down, but knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the emperor and the empress dowager: "My daughter Mu Ninghua...has met the emperor...has seen the empress dowager..."

Her voice was hoarse, her breath was weak, and her complexion became even paler after a ceremony.

"Empress Dowager, my daughter is guilty, please punish me."

The queen mother narrowed her eyes slightly, and a look of extremely heavy disgust flashed in her eyes: "Nurse Qi, quickly help Ninghua up. Really, you have suffered such a serious injury on your body, so you don't need to rest properly. Instead, he ran to the Ai family to plead guilty, and deliberately made the Ai family feel bad, didn't he?"

Isn't intentionally making people feel distressed just taking advantage of the injury to invite favor?

However, Su Yao didn't seem to hear the insinuation in the Queen Mother's words, and his clear and clear eyes slightly lifted up, and the faint water light filled the air: "Queen Mother, I am really ashamed that I failed to complete the copying of the Buddhist scriptures as you ordered. , you punish me, if you don’t punish me, I’m afraid I’ll always blame myself and feel bad.”

"The fire didn't start because of you. You were also injured in the fire. It's good that you're fine. Why don't you talk about Buddhist scriptures and non-Buddhist scriptures?"

"But Queen Mother, didn't you say that? These Buddhist scriptures will be enshrined in Wanhua Temple on the second day of February. Seeing that the day of enshrining is only a few days away, the servant girl thought that she would be able to work overnight. The volume of Buddhist scriptures has been copied, but now it seems that you have really failed the trust of the Queen Mother."

A hundred volumes of Buddhist scriptures, copied overnight?
The emperor's eyes moved slightly. Wanhua Temple enshrines Buddhist scriptures every year. Usually, he and the queen mother will each copy one volume by themselves, and the rest will be distributed to various concubines in the harem to help copy. So many people will soon be able to read a hundred volumes of Buddhist scriptures. Finish.

When copying Buddhist scriptures, one needs to bathe and change clothes, and during the copying period, etiquette is strict, drinking ice water, eating cold food, and copying in a kneeling position to show sincere respect for the Buddha.

It doesn't take long for so many volumes of Buddhist scriptures to be scattered, but if it is copied by one person, I am afraid that after copying the Buddhist scriptures, most of the lives will be killed.

The Empress Dowager's face became even more ugly: "It's nothing, there are still a few days before the Buddhist scriptures are enshrined, and the Ai family will let others copy them."

"Has the Empress Dowager found a good candidate? But sister Zhenzhen?" Su Yao raised his eyes, with joy flashing in his eyes, "You said before that those who copy Buddhist scriptures must be pure-minded and filial, and it is best to be a pure girl. After taking such a bath and burning incense, the copied Buddhist scriptures will be the most sincere. After thinking about it, I think that sister Zhenzhen is the perfect fit."

The Empress Dowager's eyes suddenly sank, murderous intent flashed in her heart, she wished to strangle Su Yao directly, where did she come to plead guilty, she was clearly here for revenge:
"The Ai family will carefully consider the candidates. What you have to do now is to take care of your body as soon as possible. The Ai family has asked the Tai Hospital to carefully consider the prescription for you, and try to keep your injuries from leaving too obvious scars."

A deep gratitude flashed in Su Yao's eyes, and he leaned over to salute the Queen Mother again: "I thank the Queen Mother, Your Majesty."

"Okay, get up and go back."

"Yes."

Mu Qingchen hurried forward and supported Su Yao to stand up. The two were about to leave when they heard the emperor speak suddenly.

"I think what Ninghua said is right. It seems that Zhenzhen is the most suitable candidate for copying the scriptures. Empress Dowager, why not leave this matter to Zhenzhen, I believe she will definitely copy the Buddhist scriptures." Yes, it will not delay the offering."

The corner of the Empress Dowager's lips twitched uncontrollably, she raised her head to meet the Emperor's eyes, but she had no choice but to agree with a smile and nod: "What the Emperor said is true, and the Ai family also thinks the same way."

"That's good. The Empress Dowager is resting well. I have to go to the former court to deal with government affairs. By the way, let someone investigate the cause of the fire in Ci'an Palace."

The emperor nodded in satisfaction. The queen mother has gone too far this time. As the king of a country, he does not want his majesty to be challenged in any way.Since the Empress Dowager attaches so much importance to Mu Zhenzhen, she should be punished as a warning to the Empress Dowager.

"Okay, the emperor hasten to get busy, it doesn't matter here at Ai's family."

"Ah."

The emperor got up to leave, and the smile on the Empress Dowager's face disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.

Su Yao and Mu Qingchen saluted again: "The Empress Dowager, the courtiers and my younger brother have also retired."

The queen mother's icy gaze was wrapped in murderous intent, and she scraped across Su Yao's face like a substance, and after a while, she gave a deep hum: "Well, let's go down, let's take a good rest, take care of your body earlier .”

"Yes, my lady, thank you Queen Mother."

Withdrew from the empress dowager's temporary dormitory, Mu Qingchen let go of the heart that had been on her all the time, and slightly supported Su Yao's arm, making her walk easier: "Sister, are you in severe pain?"

Su Yao's clothes are thin today, and he made a big salute just now, but now there are traces of blood on his sleeves, which looks very frightening.

"It's okay." The siblings returned to the side hall slowly, and after dismissing the maid, they began to speak with peace of mind, "You didn't do anything impulsive, did you?"

"When I heard the news that my sister was trapped in the fire, I almost rushed to the harem. Fortunately, Yufu reminded me in time, so I didn't make a big mistake."
