It was already evening by the time they exited the Jin Yang Palace. Madame Jin was in high spirits and drank a bit. She was intoxicated from the alcohol while Imperial Concubine Yu and Imperial Concubine Duan stayed at the Bedchamber to take care of it.
My concubine and Imperial Concubine Shu insisted on sending me back to the palace. I originally wanted Imperial Concubine Shu to rest early. However, they could not refuse, and rode on the palace carriage towards the Caixie Palace.
"Coincidentally, the two sisters haven't come to my place either. Since they're here, I'll have a cup of tea and have a chat with them." I immediately told Wan Feng to prepare eight small plates of dim sum and also served my own marinated plum tea.
The concubine was very happy and could not help but say, "I didn't expect my sister to be so good at cooking. The plum tea taste was very good. Sweet and sour with a faint fragrance of flowers mixed within. "
Imperial Concubine Shu also hurriedly took a sip, and couldn't help but nod: "As expected, it's fresh and fresh. However, there are no petals in the tea. Would you like to marinate the plum along with the petals? "
I shook my head and gave a gentle smile. "That's not it. The petals will be bitter if they are marinated for too long." The reason why the tea has a flowery fragrance is because many morning dew on the petals were collected to marinate the plum. "
"Little sister, don't be so crafty. No wonder this plum tea is so delicious." Imperial Concubine Shu tsk-tsked in praise, "It's even fresher than the kitchen made from nectar in the palace. It's not too sweet either."
The concubine did not say anything and just nodded. I blushed and humbly said, "The left side is just some ordinary things. How can it be that good? As long as you two elder sisters don't mind it."
Just as they were talking, Qi Meng walked hastily into the Internal Hall. I saw that her face was dark, as if something bad had happened. She then asked seriously, "Is there something wrong?"
Qi Meng nodded her head and said worriedly: "Sister Zhao felt unwell just now, Xiao Luzi has already gone to get the royal physician." I was a little flustered as Soo Gui said, "Let's go take a look." "Let's see what's going on first, then decide whether or not we only know how to act with the Emperor."
Imperial Concubine Shu's face turned even uglier. Maybe it was because of her own experiences that she felt this way too. She hurriedly stood up and said, "Let's go. We can't delay this."
As they spoke, the four of them headed towards the Madame Zhao's Bedchamber at the back of the main hall, each of them worried. I clench my hands together and squeeze out a thin layer of cold sweat.
From Ya Bei's miscarriage to Noble Consort Mianshou's premature delivery, to Imperial Concubine Shu's miscarriage. The whole harem was filled with an ominous aura that made me feel very uncomfortable.
Now that Qingwu had already been sent out of the palace, I instructed Ning Xiang, who was proficient in medicine, to treat the Madame Zhao in detail. carefully checked the daily meals and medicinal soups, and then tested them before she could give them to Madame Zhao to consume.
He had been extremely careful, how could he still be like this? The more he thought about it, the more anxious he became. He couldn't help but take a step forward as his entire body collapsed to the ground. He thought to himself that the fall this time was not light, but unexpectedly, he was pulled back by the Imperial Concubine Shu who was quick on the uptake.
"Be careful, sister!" The Imperial Concubine Shu lamented: "If I had lived with my sister in this Caixie Palace, with her meticulously taking care of me, maybe my son wouldn't …" She was getting more and more upset.
Qi Meng quickly stood by my side and carefully supported me as I walked. I advised, "Elder sister, you don't have to be sad. After you've recovered, your son will naturally return." The concubine also advised, "That's right, Wanqing is right. You just need to take care of your body, and don't think too much."
Imperial Concubine Shu nodded silently as she held back her tears: "I also don't dare to think about it anymore."
