After I was reborn, I became the queen mother by fortune telling

Chapter 155 I'm going to see them together
"Didn't you remind me to go see Jiang Guiren, I think it's okay."

Eunuch Gao immediately became elated: "The servant will make arrangements immediately! When is the emperor planning to go?"

"When?" Mu Qingyuan tapped the table with his knuckles a few times, "Show the time."

"Shen Shi... Your Majesty, is it too early?"

"It's not early." Mu Qingyuan said indifferently, "Isn't the imperial concubine and concubine Qiong all sick recently, I will go to see them together today."

Eunuch Gao was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood.

"The emperor rests first, and the slaves go to prepare the chariots and horses."

Mu Qingyuan got up from the palace during Shenshi and went to Duanyang Palace first.

The imperial concubine would often ask the emperor to see her because she was unwell, and Mu Qingyuan would really go eight out of ten times.

However, this time, although the imperial concubine invited the imperial physician for diagnosis and treatment every day, she did not send anyone to invite Mu Qingyuan.

Just like in the past, Mu Qingyuan met the imperial concubine in the main hall, left her the supplements and medicinal materials, said a few words, and left.

After Mu Qingyuan left, Xiaojuan happily counted the medicinal materials given by the emperor, and said happily: "Your Majesty, the emperor still has affection for you, and we didn't send anyone to invite you this time. The emperor actually took the initiative to come and see You."

However, there was a wry smile on the face of the noble concubine: "If there is real friendship, he wouldn't just sit so far away every time he came, say a few caring words in a serious manner, and then leave."

"Mistress, take your time."

"Take your time? How many years has it been..." There was a trace of sadness in the imperial concubine's eyes.

"Your Majesty, there is something I don't know whether a servant should say or not." Xiaojuan said suddenly.

"You say it."

Xiaojuan bit her lips: "The servant heard a rumor in the palace..."

The imperial concubine waved her hand: "You said the emperor doesn't like women? Isn't that right?"

"Your Majesty, you've heard of it a long time ago?"

"Even if this kind of thing is not reported, I used to doubt it. However, if he doesn't like women, I haven't seen him favoring any men. Even the eunuchs in his palace said that the emperor sleeps alone every night. .”

Xiaojuan was at a loss for words for a moment, feeling that she had slipped her tongue.

"However, the empress is the highest-ranking empress in the palace, so you don't have to worry too much." She said again.

"That's just up to now. Don't forget, the emperor hasn't made a queen yet. At that time, he insisted not to make a queen. Many people in and outside the palace objected, but the emperor just refused to make a queen. Looking at it now, I The imperial concubine may not be the one who wins by lying down. Now you know why I mentioned you so many times, right? Since ancient times, how can there be any peaceful harem?"

After being silent for a while, the imperial concubine rubbed her temples: "I'm tired, don't talk anymore, I'm going to rest for a while."

After Mu Qingyuan left Duanyang Palace, he didn't take a carriage. The weather was fine, so he walked slowly.

"Do you look at the complexion of the noble concubine, as if she sees an imperial doctor every day?" Mu Qingyuan looked at the scenery aside, and asked Eunuch Gao who was following behind.

Eunuch Gao looked at Gu Mu Qingyuan's face, and tentatively replied: "I think the imperial concubine's complexion is not very good, but it's not particularly bad."

Mu Qingyuan didn't pay too much attention to this cunning answer, and said indifferently: "In my opinion, her latest illness is heart disease."

"Your Majesty, shall we continue to go to Concubine Qiong's place?" Eunuch Gao was suddenly a little uncertain.

"Go!" Mu Qingyuan smiled slightly, "I'm afraid Concubine Qiong's heart disease is worse than Concubine Gui."

The door of Qixia Palace is closed.

Ever since Xu Meijun and Luo Wanzhi moved away, Concubine Qiong lived alone.

Recently, when she complained of illness, no one was seen. Even the imperial doctor came to see her, but only checked her pulse through a curtain.

Mu Qingyuan walked to the gate of the palace, and found that the palace gate was closed tightly, she pushed it, and actually locked the gate from the inside, she couldn't help frowning.

A young eunuch who came with him stepped forward and knocked on the door.

No one came to answer the door.

He patted hard again, and a lazy voice of a court lady came from inside: "Who is it?"

The little eunuch said loudly: "Just open the door!"

"Wait!" The maid inside replied impatiently.

There was a sound of pulling the latch from inside, and with a "squeak", the door was opened.

The maid inside rubbed her sleepy eyes, and when she saw the person in front of her clearly, she was so frightened that she couldn't even speak clearly.

"Emperor, Your Majesty... Slave, I don't know it's you..."

Eunuch Gao hurriedly interrupted her: "Okay, go and report to your empress, just say that the emperor is here, let her come out to pick him up."

But Mu Qingyuan said: "No need. Didn't you say that Concubine Qiong is ill? I'm going to visit you."

When the maid heard this, she wanted to run away, but was grabbed by the little eunuch who knocked on the door just now.

"This sister, please lead the way."

The maid had no choice but to lead the way, leading Mu Qingyuan and the others to go forward.

The Qixia Palace in the afternoon was extremely deserted, not a single court lady or eunuch was seen walking outside.

The maid's face became more and more anxious, and when she was about to reach Concubine Qiong's bedroom, she suddenly raised her voice and shouted: "Empress Qiongfei, the emperor is here, please come out to pick him up!"

Mu Qingyuan frowned slightly.

It would be strange to say that Concubine Qiong has nothing to do with the expressions and performances of this court lady from the moment she entered the door until now.

Even if Concubine Qiong pretended to be sick, she didn't have to be so pretentious, right?

Eunuch Gao took a slight step forward, approached Mu Qingyuan, and said softly: "Your Majesty, this servant feels something is wrong."

"Oh? What do you think is wrong?" Mu Qingyuan smiled faintly.

"This court lady is sneaky, Your Majesty, if something goes wrong, there must be a demon, could it be..."

"Could it be something? You just talk."

"I don't dare to say it..." Eunuch Gao frowned.

"Gao Yi, you're hesitant to talk to me here. If you say something wrong, I won't punish you. Is there anything you can't say?"

Gao Yi looked around, and then lowered his voice a little: "Your Majesty, this servant is just guessing whether Concubine Qiong is seeing someone, that's why that maid is so nervous when she heard the news that the Emperor came in."

Contrary to Eunuch Gao's expectation, Mu Qingyuan didn't seem to be surprised at all.

"Then guess again, who is she seeing?"

Eunuch Gao shrank his head in fright.

"This slave can't guess."

After a pause, Eunuch Gao felt that he might have said something wrong just now, so he hurriedly made amends: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid it was just a slave's overheartedness."

"Aren't you overthinking, I'll give you a chance to make amends. Now you send someone to the front and back doors of Qixia Palace to see if anyone has left from Qixia Palace."

Eunuch Gao hurriedly called the little eunuch who knocked on the door just now, gave some instructions, and the little eunuch walked away quickly with two eunuchs.

They followed the court lady into the main hall where Concubine Qiong received guests, and Concubine Qiong was already sitting in it upright.
