Chapter 138 The Five Forces That Helped the Imperial Concubine to Become the Emperor (5)
As soon as Song Yuesheng returned to the palace, Concubine Li and Guiren Liu walked in.
She briefly told them what had happened and comforted them that she was not injured, and then let them leave with peace of mind.
But before they left, they told her that they would give her a surprise tomorrow.
It means blessing of peace.
Song Yuesheng didn't take it too seriously.
But the surprise the next day gave her an invisible slap in the face, making her almost exclaim "It smells so good".
The surprise that Concubine Li and Concubine Liu mentioned was Concubine Qi's acrobatic performance.
Swallow the knife and walk on fire.
"It's just a small talent. I hope the Imperial Concubine likes it."
Concubine Qi has a baby face and her eyebrows and eyes are similar to Wen Man.
Because I caught a cold a few days ago and haven’t fully recovered yet, my cheeks are red like a ripe apple.
However, Concubine Li and Song Yuesheng just revealed that Concubine Qi caught a cold because she didn't want to serve the emperor in the emperor's bedchamber, and every time she was almost well, she would be poured with a bucket of ice water.
Song Yuesheng felt a little pity for her, so he took Concubine Qi's hand and sat down, and asked Qiao Yue to give her a hot water bottle.
"If my sister's talent is small, I'm afraid there is nothing that can be called a great talent. If you feel bored, you can come to my place often to relieve your fatigue."
"This... I'm afraid it's not appropriate. It will be hard to explain to His Majesty."
Even though Sister Li and Sister Liu both said that the imperial concubine had a childhood friendship with the emperor, Concubine Qi knew very well the horror of imperial power.
Once you enter the palace, all friendships are of no use.
The emperor did not touch the imperial concubine, fearing that it would offend General Song's face.
If General Song's military power was taken away, the first person to suffer would be the imperial concubine.
"Xiao Guixi's swordsmanship was taught by my father. He cannot beat me."
In previous competitions, Xiao Guixi intentionally gave way to the original owner.
But he may not be her opponent now.
Concubine Qi was so scared that she let go of the hot water bottle and looked at Concubine Li and Concubine Liu for help.
But the two of them had already gone through yesterday's experience and were not surprised.
Song Yuesheng quickly picked up the hot water bottle and put it back into her hands, smiling: "Sister, it's not good to be so timid when performing a variety show."
Concubine Qi nodded, then shook her head again and advised, "Sister Concubine, there are many people in the palace and they are all gossipy. It is better to be careful. You don't know that many storybooks describe how the concubines in the palace died tragically."
Song Yuesheng blinked.
She finally understood why Concubine Qi made herself sick and avoided serving the emperor.
Concubine Qi's behavior was exactly the same as in the storybook "The Charming Imperial Concubine" that she asked Qiao Xin to read yesterday.
"Sister Qi, if you don't mind, I have some storybooks here. When you leave, pick some and take them back."
Concubine Qi's eyes lit up instantly.
She coughed lightly and thanked him in a restrained manner.
Concubine Li and Noble Lady Liu looked at each other and sighed.
Fortunately, the imperial concubine didn't care.
"I'm glad to meet Sister Qi today. Let's play a new game. Each person will tell a story with a beginning but no end within one stick of incense. The other three people will ask questions, and the narrator can only answer yes or no, which has nothing to do with the story. Whoever guesses the ending of the story first can ask the other three people a question at will."
The gameplay is simple and you can get started quickly.
However, unexpectedly, the person who lost the most among the four was Song Yuesheng, who organized the game.
But later in the game, she discovered the problem.
The story told by Concubine Li and the other two was the one they had already told in Cuili Palace, so no matter who told it, she would not be the winner.
Angry.
But there is no turtle soup recipe in this world.
"Your Majesty, there is a doctor named Li outside who mentioned the time when Concubine Qi will be treated."
Qiao Xin placed the stomach-warming soup in front of each of them and reported to Song Yuesheng.
Concubine Qi slapped her forehead and said, "I actually forgot there is one last day."
She kept stroking the soup bowl and asked Song Yuesheng hesitantly, "Sister Imperial Concubine, may I borrow your place so that Dr. Li can come and treat me?"
"Of course. Qiao Xin, please ask Doctor Li to come in."
Song Yuesheng picked up the cloak from the shelf and covered the dominoes and the storybook with it.
As the footsteps got closer, Song Yuesheng saw the last male protagonist in this world——
Imperial physician Li Shaoqin.
He has a handsome appearance, delicate features and an upright posture.
It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the young master of a noble family.
Song Yuesheng is in no rush to get involved with him because Li Shaoqin is the only male protagonist who develops feelings for Wen Man only after she is reborn.
"Sister Yue, he was the one who eavesdropped on your conversation in Cuili Palace that day."
"Your Highness, the Imperial Concubine is looking at me like this. Are you also suffering from a cold?"
Song Yuesheng knocked on the table and looked at him with her head propped up: "I think Doctor Li looks familiar."
"Like the one who gave the empress her cloak?"
Song Yuesheng was stunned, glanced at the red cloak on the ground, and smiled and denied: "The cloak was given to me by my mother. But Doctor Li is not wrong. Before I entered the palace, my mother was concerned about whether I had any illness. After entering the palace, I had to rely on your Imperial Hospital. From this point of view, they are similar."
Li Shaoqin: ...
He turned sideways and asked the servant to open the medicine box, and silently gave acupuncture to Concubine Qi who was lying on the couch.
Concubine Qi was close by and felt that the angry Doctor Li was very scary.
Not a word of small talk.
She didn't dare relax for a moment, for fear that Doctor Li would vent his anger towards her.
One stitch to the end.
She will not be able to see today's sunset.
Treating an illness requires a quiet environment. After staying for a while, Song Yuesheng felt bored, so he asked Concubine Li and Noble Lady Liu to stay there while he went out to get some fresh air.
She went to the small kitchen, hoping to find out something from Li Shaoqin's servant.
But when the other party saw her, he was like a mouse seeing a cat, and ran away with the freshly cooked medicine, not afraid of spilling the medicine.
Song Yuesheng touched his face, turned around and asked the cook who was picking vegetables: "Aunt Ma, do I look scary?"
"Your Majesty is naturally beautiful. The man just now might be..."
Aunt Ma fell backwards halfway through her words.
Then, an uninvited guest came in from outside.
Song Yuesheng stopped planning to call for help and looked at him with her arms folded: "There are people in the palace today, so it is inconvenient for me to play Wen Man with you."
Thinking of the sudden touch that night, Yan Ge clenched his fists, turned his head slightly, and threw a small round box to Song Yuesheng.
It was the box that Song Yuesheng asked Qiao Yue to burn.
"I heard that your palace was short of something. I originally gave you this box of frostbite ointment that night, but..."
Yan Ge pursed her lips, and the words she didn't say spoke for themselves.
"Alas. Yan Ge, I will show you a way. There is a talented writer with the same name in the palace, Wen Man, who is suffering in the laundry department right now."
Song Yuesheng touched her chin and looked at him thoughtfully: "Based on my observation, she is 90% similar to Wen Man. Instead of wasting your time on me, you might as well go find that poor talented man."
Ok?
The blue sparrow didn't understand.
Why did Sister Yue drive people out?
Then, it heard Sister Yue's casual voice.
"You are not the only one in the palace who has strange thoughts about Wen Man. If you don't seize the opportunity, someone else will get there first. Don't blame me, your former employer, for not reminding you."
After saying that, Song Yuesheng threw the hand ointment back to him.
"She needs the rose-scented ointment more than I do."
