The queen smiled when she heard the speech.
"Invite people over."
The maid answered "yes".
Soon, Xu Mingyi was invited into the inner hall.
Looking at the flowery girl in an apricot jacket and an autumn fragrance embroidered brandy horse face skirt, who was saluting herself, the queen smiled more intensely in her eyes, waved and said, "come and sit next to the palace."
Xu Mingyi walked over and sat down.
The Queen's eyes fell on the girl's smooth, soft and bright black hair, smiled and asked, "how come you haven't worn the pair of plum blossom hairpins sent by our palace? But you don't like it?"
She has given the girl a lot of jewelry, and the girl is also exquisite. She always takes one or two pieces with her when she enters the palace.
But I never saw her use the pair of white hairpins.
"It's from my mother. I don't think I don't like it." Xu Mingyi replied truthfully, "I just think it's an old thing that my mother cherishes very much, and the jade hairpin is fragile. My daughter is not quiet and cautious. I'm afraid she might be damaged by collision, so she hasn't taken it out for use."
Even if it was flattering, it was her truth.
After she took the hairpins back, she asked ah Kui to put them away properly.
"Jewelry is for wearing. If you want to put it away, what will the palace give it back to you?" the queen said casually and intimately. "Since it's given to you, it's to see you wear it. If it's broken, it's broken. It's not a rare thing."
Xu Mingyi didn't wriggle when he heard the speech. He smiled and nodded and said, "the minister's daughter will wear it to her mother next time she enters the palace."
The queen nodded with satisfaction with a smile.
The palace maid brought tea and snacks. After talking with Xu Mingyi for a while, she asked softly, "how's your mother recently? Can you take another look at her pulse?"
Every time she entered the palace, she would take a pulse for the queen.
After months of recuperation, she finally saw some improvement in her pulse when she came last time.
But there was also a guess in my heart——
"Recently, I think my spirit is OK."
The queen naturally stretched out her right hand and put it on the small table.
After Xu Mingyi concentrated on the diagnosis for a moment, the fundus of his eyes showed hesitation.
This time, compared with the previous time, there was a sign that it was going to return to before recuperation.
This is undoubtedly different.
But the reason is not difficult to guess.
It even confirms her conjecture these days
"But it's not good?" the queen took back her hand slowly. Seeing that the girl's expression was not very relaxed, she said softly, "it doesn't matter. This body of the palace has always been like this, and it's not a serious disease. And I realized that those prescriptions are really useful. Just take care of them slowly."
Xu Mingyi sighed in his heart.
If it is just an ordinary old disease, it really only needs to be recuperated slowly, and there is no need to worry at all.
But the problem is
For the empress's gentle eyes, Xu Ming thought that there was only one close mother in the hall. In the end, he didn't hesitate for too long.
"I'm afraid there are other external reasons for my mother's physical disorder."
The Queen's eyes moved when she heard the speech.
"External cause?"
Xu Mingyi nodded.
"If you don't get rid of the root cause, no matter how you take care of it, it's useless."
The queen didn't know what she thought. She didn't say a word for a moment. She just picked up the tea at hand.
The lower Xu Mingyi pressed his voice, almost only two people could hear: "please forgive me for taking the courage to ask, but... I don't know my mother takes a very heavy dose of avoidant all the year round?"
"..." the queen looked at the talking girl in amazement.
The girl's face was positive, and there was a ray of worry at the bottom of her eyes.
"Avoid the medicine? How could..." the queen came back and said in a warm voice, "Miss Xu, I'm afraid she was wrong."
"Or she was put in the food and tea without the mother's knowledge."
In any case, after opening this mouth, Xu Mingyi decided to finish: "it can be seen from the mother's pulse and discomfort all over the body that this avoidant is quite strong. Taking it for a long time will do great harm to the body, just like a chronic poison. In the long run, even if you stop taking it in the future, it will make it difficult for people to get pregnant..."
In her opinion, choosing to use such a strong antidote is too vicious.
And if it was just an ordinary antidote that would not cause too much harm to her body, she might not choose to be so straightforward.
The Queen's eyes changed when she looked at the girl in front of her.
"Miss Xu said this to the palace. Aren't you afraid of misfortune coming out of your mouth?"
Facing the blinding eyes, Xu Mingyi calmly said, "if the empress doesn't feel right, it's the minister's daughter's wrong diagnosis."
She is not a nosy person.
Today will choose to say it, not because the other party is today's Queen.
Despite these days of getting along, the person in front of me is the daughter of the Wu family, the Wu family who was kind to her in her previous life——
And she is Wu Tsung's direct aunt.
So she felt that she should make what she knew clear.
However, if the other party thinks she is troubled, she will admit that she has made a mistake, that is, she will not say anything more in the future.
In the end, she chose to do this thing, not to please anyone, just to be worthy of her conscience.
The queen looked at the girl's clear and calm eyes.
When these eyes don't smile, it seems that they are born with a light that is neither humble nor arrogant.
"Miss Xu's nickname, but it's called Zhaozhao?" the queen suddenly asked.
Although Xu Mingyi didn't understand why he turned to this topic, he subconsciously nodded his head: "go back to your mother, it is."
"These two words are very worthy of Miss Xu." the queen said.
It was the first time she had seen a girl who lived so alive and bright, as if she could sweep away all the darkness around her.
In the face of this sudden praise, Xu Mingyi was slightly stunned.
Then, she listened to the Queen's slow voice: "there is a maid in charge of tea in this Yukun palace, which is not from this palace."
Xu Mingyi's eyes changed slightly.
"Did your mother notice before?"
She had thought of this possibility before.
The queen nodded slightly.
"I just didn't expect that the medicine would erode the body so seriously as the girl said."
The other party's medication is so heavy that she doesn't think of any difference, lest she conceive the so-called dragon seed?
Thinking of this, the queen just wanted to sneer.
The face doesn't look very good, but it's beautiful.
And I still need to take medicine to support myself. Where does this wonderful self-confidence come from?
As long as she thought of the old feud that might exist between him or with the blood of her close relatives, she wished she could stab each other to death, let alone have children for him.
Even if he didn't make people sneak into her tea, she would take it herself.
Hearing this, Xu Mingyi had a judgment in his heart.
The queen has clearly noticed, but she still takes the medicine. It is obvious who is the person who takes the medicine.
