Chapter 16 Preparation
Chunfeng looked around at Xiaocui. She saw Xiaocui put her hands behind her back. She knew at a glance that there was something hidden in her hands. She wanted to ask, but in her mind Suddenly, something happened that their Empress Jia Fei had told her before.
Chunfeng did not act rashly, she looked at Xiaocui with a smile and said: "It's okay, it's okay, why are you nervous."
Xiaocui listened to Chunfeng's words and explained subconsciously. , said: "Maybe it's because I didn't sleep last night."
After hearing the explanation, Chunfeng also wanted to end the topic just now, and she continued:
"By the way, Xiaocui, I will accompany Concubine Jia out of the palace next month."
"Is there anything you want me to bring you?"
Although Chunfeng is Chunfeng is the first-class palace maid of Chuxiu Palace, but she has always been on good terms with the junior palace maids of Chuxiu Palace. Privately, Chunfeng has no temper and always brings some gadgets to them.
"Sister Chunfeng, I want Lin Cuige's rouge and gouache." When Xiaocui heard Chunfeng mention the topic they often talked about, the expression on her face suddenly relaxed.
Chunfeng heard Xiao Cui's words and saw Xiao Cui's expression changing so quickly. She suddenly became happy. She then raised her hand and scraped Xiao Cui's nose and said, "Silly girl."
After Chunfeng finished talking to Xiaocui, he walked to Concubine Jia's bedroom. After entering, Chunfeng closed the door and walked a few steps in. He saw Cui Xiu sitting on a chair and Qiu Feng standing aside.
"Empress, guess what I saw." Chunfeng walked up to Cui Xiu, picked up the tea poured on the table, took a sip, and then put it down.
Cui Xiu: "What did you see?" She followed Chunfeng's words and had some thoughts in her mind.
Chunfeng: "I just saw Xiaocui in Ningcai Palace. She was sneaky." As she spoke, the expression on her face became serious.
Cui Xiu listened to Chunfeng's words, she nodded and said bluntly: "Ning Cairen asked her to do it."
Cui Xiu thought, if Ning Cai wanted to drug her, shouldn't he let Dr. Zhang do it? Why would you let a little palace maid do it? Could it be that Doctor Zhang refused?
After all, taking medicine for premature birth is indeed very risky. Such things did not happen in the previous life. At that time, her delivery date was just right, so Ning Cairen met her after waiting for more than ten days.
Everything seemed to be arranged. On the same night, the emperor hosted a banquet in the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests to welcome the triumphant army.
Besides her and Ning Cairen, there was no one else in the harem, so Ning Cairen just liked Ning Cairen's wishes and asked her to take away the child.
As soon as Cui Xiu said this, Chunfeng disagreed. She explained:
"Mother, others don't know, but I still know about that girl Xiaocui."
"She is just a heartless little girl."
"No one knows how to use Ning Cai. Use her, and I looked guilty when I first met her."
"It's too obvious."
"I can't even ignore it."< br>
Cui Xiu didn't speak immediately after Chunfeng's explanation. She raised her eyes and looked at Qiufeng, signaling Qiufeng to say a few words.
Qiu Feng's eyes were indifferent. She nodded and defended Xiao Cui: "Indeed."
"Ning Cairen looks down on Xiao Cui."
Qiu Feng spoke more directly. If Xiao Cui heard what she said, she would probably be heartbroken.
Cui Xiu listened to the words of Chunfeng and Qiufeng, and she thought to herself that this matter was indeed strange. Ning Cairen calculated her so cruelly. Could it be that she couldn't wait any longer, so she rushed to the doctor in a hurry? , let people do whatever they want?
It shouldn't be, Ning Cairen is not that stupid.
Based on Cui Xiu's experience of being deceived by her for so many years, Ning Cairen has always been a calm person. She usually doesn't use people. If she does, she must have some plan. It's just that she couldn't guess this plan for a while. She secretly felt that Ning Cairen was going to cause trouble.
Cui Xiu felt that if Yi Ning Cai Ren’s plan and thoughts were put on the right track, given time, she would definitely be able to do great things.
To this day, Cui Xiu doesn't quite understand why Ning Caieren insists on changing the child, and what exactly changing the child can bring to her.
Cui Xiusi looked at the orchid beside her elbow, and said: "Chunfeng, keep an eye on Xiaocui more."
"In case something happens to her."
< br>As the saying goes, there must be a demon when things go wrong. Cui Xiu didn't think Ning Cairen would really use a little palace maid who was full of mistakes to do something that was particularly important to her and could even determine her life.
It is too abnormal to put everything you have on an unrelated palace maid. Therefore, one explanation Cui Xiu can think of is that this Xiaocui may be in danger.
It’s just that she couldn’t predict what danger there would be, so she could only say a word of caution.
Chunfeng listened to Cui Xiu's words, and she responded: "Empress, what should we do next?"
"What should we do if Ningcai people attack us?"
Chunfeng thought of it As their mother-in-law said before, thinking that Ning Cairen's plan to delay labor had failed, she would definitely not give up and would definitely find other methods.
Cui Xiu's delivery date is imminent. If Ning Cairen takes advantage of this opportunity, it will be troublesome.
Cui Xiu shook his head and said, "Don't panic, my father and second brother should be arriving in the capital soon."
"Everything will be easy to talk about when they come back."
"Ningcai people dare not act rashly, especially at this time."
"We only need to do our job well, nothing else "Cui Xiu gave Qiu Feng and Chun Feng a reassurance. What they need now is to calm down. When the time comes, Ning Cai gives birth to a child, and everything will be settled. .
I was afraid that Ning Cairen would not be willing to let the child be born, and even wanted to exchange the civet cat for the prince.
If you want to make her give birth earlier, you may need to use drugs or play tricks. She is also expecting to give birth now. Any slight bump or worry will prompt her to give birth.
When the time comes, Ning Cairen will comply with her wishes, but she won’t.
-
A few days later, Cui Xiu got the exact time of her father and brother's return to the capital, and she gradually felt more comfortable.
Although Ning Cairen's matter is not over yet, there is always an inexplicable sense of security in her heart. She has not felt this feeling for a long time.
In the last life, the Cui family suffered many casualties in order to seize the legitimate heir. Counting the time, she has not seen her father and second brother for many years.
Chunfeng came in with a medicinal drink and put it on the table. Cui Xiu glanced at it, then picked up the ceramic bowl and was about to drink it.
“Don’t drink!” Concubine Yun’s voice interrupted Cui Xiu’s movements, and then she appeared in the palace and walked anxiously to Cui Xiu.
Concubine Yun Guifei snatched the ceramic bowl from Cui Xiu's hand, threw it to the ground without thinking, and then said: "You can't drink this medicine!"
