Chapter 208 The Princess is Unwell
Chapter 208 The Princess is Unwell
She paused, "Princess, you're not even going to the Lantern Festival banquet now, but you're feeling very unwell?"
Xiao Shu shook her head and lowered her voice, "Qingsong Court is very tight-lipped. They just said she was exhausted from tending to the patient some time ago. The Imperial Physician never came to see her, and I haven't heard that the princess took any medicine."
Xie Run knew that the princess was very good at managing the household, and any news she didn't want to leak out would definitely not be leaked.
She just vaguely felt that if even Fang Yuan'er was affected by the plot and kept "returning to her place" with the plot, then what originally happened to the princess would not change much.
She lowered her eyes to hide the thoughts in them.
Suddenly, Taotao's laughter rang in her ears. Zihu helplessly carried him to Xie Run and said, "Master, the young master made a fuss and wanted to go out as soon as he woke up. I really can't comfort him anymore..."
Xie Run glanced at Tao Tao in her arms, reached out and pinched his little face: "You little rascal, if your father comes later, let him take you out, otherwise... forget it."
Taotao seemed to understand what Xie Run said and immediately reached out and threw herself into Xie Run's arms.
This baby is over eight months old and is not light at all.
She raised her hand and slapped Tao Tao on the butt, "Don't act like a spoiled child, this trick won't work on me."
When Taotao was in her arms, he kept rubbing against Xie Run to stand up, which scared Xiaoshu and Dantao, as they were afraid that he would reach out and pull Xie Run's clothes.
With the addition of a child this winter, Chunshanyuan is indeed much more lively.
The desolation of Yunbi Pavilion is in stark contrast to the liveliness of Chunshan Courtyard.
Ever since Concubine Lian was scolded by King Jing the other day, she has been completely frightened.
The maids in the yard couldn't persuade her, and Concubine Wan didn't come here either. Concubine Lian was getting more and more anxious day by day.
Whenever she felt uneasy or anxious, she would lose her temper at the little girl around her.
Occasionally, if a little girl made some noise, she would be grabbed and scolded.
When Wan Linlang arrived, snow started falling again.
She held an umbrella by herself and wore a goose yellow cloak. It was not very warm, but it looked very fresh and elegant.
Like a touch of spring falling on the snow.
When the little girl in the corridor saw her, her eyes lit up with joy. Just as she was about to report, Wan Linlang raised her hand.
The little girl stopped immediately and bowed to her.
Wan Linlang seemed to have entered her own yard, and walked in familiarly with Suiyu.
After walking through the courtyard and reaching the door, I heard the voice of Concubine Lian cursing.
"Now, none of you take me seriously. You think that because the prince scolded me, you are completely disgusted with me."
"Now you just hate me for stopping you from climbing up the social ladder?!"
Then the little girl's cry for mercy was heard.
Concubine Lian: "I've already told you that I haven't been sleeping well lately, and you're deliberately making such a fuss. Did you not take my words to heart, or are you upset with me and deliberately making trouble for me?!"
"I don't have it, I don't dare!"
"I really won't dare to do that again!"
"Come here!" Concubine Lian gritted her teeth.
The next second, the little girl cried out, "It hurts, it hurts! Master, please spare my life, Master, please spare my life, I will never dare to do it again..."
Concubine Lian cursed with foul language, words that the maids in the palace had never heard of.
The mixture of crying and insults was particularly harsh.
Wan Linlang listened expressionlessly, folded her umbrella, shook off the snow, and then said to the girl beside her, "Let them know."
The little girl immediately said, "Master, Master Wan is here to visit!"
The crying and cursing stopped instantly.
Wan Linlang then brought people into the room.
She only glanced at the girl kneeling on the ground, her eyes fell on the double-petaled lilies on the table, and frowned: "Who put these lilies on the table?"
The little maid beside her tremblingly said, "Master Wan, it is this servant... This was newly delivered by the flower room manager today."
Wan Linlang took a look and found that the girl was unfamiliar. "New here?"
The little girl nodded.
"Your master is allergic to lilies. Even if you receive flowers like this in the future, don't put them in the room."
"Yes!"
Then he said to the little girl kneeling on the ground, "Pick up the broken porcelain pieces on the ground. It would be disgraceful if someone saw them."
The kneeling maid was an old lady. She knew that Wan Linlang had saved her, so she quickly wiped her tears and thanked him, "Thank you, Master Wan. I will pack it up right away."
He quickly picked up the broken porcelain pieces on the ground and made way for Wan Linlang.
Wan Linlang sat next to Concubine Lian, took the tea handed to her by the maid, and tasted it methodically without showing any impatience.
It was Concubine Lian who lost her patience first and started crying, "Sister Wan, you have finally stepped into Yunbi Pavilion."
"I thought you were mad at me and wouldn't come to see me anymore..."
Wan Linlang said calmly, "How could that be true? You have your own ideas, which is a good thing."
"I always agree that you should make your own decisions. After all, I can't worry about you all my life."
Upon hearing these words, Concubine Lian couldn't stop crying.
Wan Linlang handed her the handkerchief in her hand.
She wiped her tears with a handkerchief and cried aggrievedly, "Sister Wan, I know I was wrong."
"I shouldn't have disobeyed you. I lost my composure after hearing what the master said. I was so overconfident that I wanted Concubine Hua to move to another courtyard. Now I'm bringing shame upon myself."
"I am just a concubine. Even if I am lucky enough to be pregnant with the prince's child, I still have to abide by the rules of the palace..."
Of course Wan Linlang could tell that Concubine Lian's words were not sincere.
In this matter, it was clear that Concubine Lian had inappropriate thoughts in her mind after listening to the master's words. She wanted to step on Concubine Hua to establish her authority and at the same time add some weight to the child in her belly.
Wan Linlang would definitely disagree.
In Wan Linlang's opinion, either don't take action or kill the enemy with one blow.
Even if Concubine Lian steps on Concubine Hua, what good will it do?
You have won the dignity and face, but as a concubine, you provoked the concubine, and in the eyes of King Jing, you were labeled as restless, which obviously did more harm than good.
Poor Concubine Lian insisted on doing it and completely ignored Wan Linlang's advice.
Maybe he was bullied by Concubine Jiang before, and he had been holding a grudge in his heart, so now he just wanted to win back his face.
The two parted on bad terms, and because of this incident, Wan Linlang did not visit Yunbi Pavilion for several days.
Concubine Lian was still crying, "Yesterday, when that little bitch Yuru saw me being scolded by the prince, she couldn't stand it anymore and found someone to transfer to Concubine Fang's courtyard!"
"We are both concubines. Concubine Fang is just relying on the fact that she supports Princess Ruyi and is favored by those housekeepers. She can transfer people from my room at will."
