Chapter 197 Come and help
Chapter 197 Come and help
"Of course we have to go. The Queen Mother is ill this time, and all the sisters need to take care of her."
Are you kidding? The first person that old thing the Queen Mother called was me. Why should I be the only one to suffer?
Come on, all of you!
Yixiu has really given up now.
As soon as she recovered a little, the empress dowager hurriedly asked her to take care of her.
What? Are you afraid that she will recover too quickly?
I’m afraid she won’t develop any chronic illness!
This is what I call my aunt, bah!
Yixiu was very resistant to this matter, and would not be kind enough to let Xia Dongchun and others go back.
She hopes that as many people as possible will go!
With more people around, wouldn't it be her turn less often?
Yixiu was thinking in her mind that the group had already arrived at Shoukang Palace.
The Queen Mother was sleeping soundly, and Sun Zhuxi originally didn't want to disturb her.
But seeing that the queen brought such a large group of people, she did not dare to neglect them.
I could only go in and wake up the Queen Mother.
"Your Majesty, the Queen has brought people to pay their respects to you. Look..."
Sun Zhuxi said in a low voice.
The empress dowager, who had finally fallen asleep, was woken up and opened her eyes impatiently.
She already had a headache and now felt even more dizzy. She wanted to say directly:
Get them out!
But she was the one who called the person here, and she told him to take care of the patient. When the person arrived, she asked him to go back directly.
Although she can do so, she will inevitably be criticized by outsiders.
She has always maintained the reputation of being virtuous and kind, and she cannot lose it.
"Let them wait outside."
She said this weakly, and then asked the palace maid to help her wash and dress.
It's almost November now and the weather has turned cold.
Not to mention on this morning when we're paying our respects.
Yixiu and others were taken to a side hall to wait, but there was not even anything to keep warm.
Isn't this just a show of force?
This kind of treatment reminded Yixiu of the time when she was still in the palace.
At that time, the Empress Dowager was only Consort De.
Although she was nominally her aunt, every time she was called over, she was ignored and targeted.
But she still required me to pay my respects to her every day.
Every day, she would ride in a carriage to the Forbidden City before dawn, and then endure her mother-in-law's harassment.
In sharp contrast to her is the Fourteenth Lady.
Every time she watched them having fun and asked about their well-being.
I just listened silently while holding the tea that had already gone cold.
Then from time to time, her mother-in-law would arrange for women to be taken back to the prince as concubines.
Seeing the prince favoring this one and that one, she is always left out.
Days like this make me feel suffocated whenever I think of them.
Yixiu suppressed the emotions churning in her heart.
Tell herself that everything is over, that she is the queen now, and that all the hardships have paid off.
Time slips away slowly while waiting.
I waited about forty minutes?
Luo Yao was so tired that she was cursing in her heart before the Queen Mother finally arrived.
"Your Highness pays respect to the Queen Mother."
A group of beautiful girls stood up at the same time, the smell of powder on their bodies mixed with the smell of the anti-epidemic medicine bags prepared by the Imperial Hospital.
The choking queen mother just wanted to hold her breath.
This is because everyone knew that they were coming to her Shoukang Palace, so they carried enough medicine bags.
Afraid of getting contaminated.
What can the Queen Mother say?
She couldn't let them throw away the medicine bags!
Wouldn't that make her completely an evil mother-in-law who doesn't care about life and death?
By then, the forces behind these people will come together to criticize her, and the emperor will definitely take the opportunity to add insult to injury!
The Queen Mother had no choice but to accept it.
"Okay, everyone, get up."
Having said this, the Queen Mother continued to walk forward and take the main seat.
According to normal procedures, the next step should be the question-and-answer session.
Everyone would pretend to be happy and do everything they could to please the Queen Mother.
Then the Queen Mother would suppress some people in a sarcastic way.
For example, Concubine Hua, Concubine Chen, and the Queen.
Anyway, I just find fault with whoever I don't like.
As an elder, she naturally stands on the moral high ground.
Conflicts between mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law have existed since ancient times.
Not to mention a mother-in-law and a group of daughters-in-law.
Before Luo Yao sat down, she saw the Queen Mother looking at her with a frown.
It was obvious that she was the next target of attack and was about to be covered by the Queen Mother's firepower.
She was already impatient after sitting and waiting for 40 minutes, and she still wanted to find fault with me?
Since you don’t want to come out, then just go back to bed!
In the blink of an eye, a large amount of dragon energy was deducted.
It's also a bad luck charm.
However, it is not the kind of long-lasting one used by Prince Dun.
But it's the kind that only deals damage once but has high burst.
Otherwise, if two people had the same problem, wouldn't it be easy to suspect her?
It’s different now. She uses it quietly and no one knows it was her who did it.
I just feel a little sad about spending this dragon energy. I must ask someone to reimburse me when I return!
Then in full view of the public.
The empress dowager, who had already walked to the front, suddenly slipped and fell directly towards the chair.
The incident happened suddenly, and Sun Zhuxi, who was supporting her, didn't react at all.
She was just standing by and lending a hand, who could have thought that he would actually fall!
"what!"
"Whoops..."
There was a dull thud, followed by the sound of flesh hitting wood.
The best small-leaf red sandalwood is very strong. It fell so hard that it hurts my teeth just hearing it.
After the shock, everyone came forward and started asking questions.
"Queen Mother, Queen Mother, how are you?"
"Call the doctor quickly!"
"Come and help the Queen Mother up......"
The queen, who was closest to the scene, naturally took action first, and she hurriedly reached out to help.
However, the empress dowager who was being supported immediately gasped.
“Hiss! Let go…let go…”
She had just fallen on a chair and had hit her ribs hard.
Now that the queen was holding his arm and pulling him like this, he felt a piercing pain in his ribs.
She was shaking with pain and her voice was barely audible.
The surroundings were in such a mess that Yixiu didn't hear anything at all.
Empty ears.
But Concubine Hua next to her heard it.
Then...she pulled even harder!
He pulled the empress dowager's arm upwards, fearing that the chance for revenge would slip away.
Concubine Qi also wanted to lend a hand and show her support.
As a result, just as he squeezed closer, Concubine Hua had already pulled the person up.
At this moment, he was helping the Queen Mother sit down, and asked with concern:
"She's not dead, is she, Queen?"
The Queen Mother felt a breath stuck in her chest, and she felt dizzy and nauseous being surrounded by so many people.
The taste is too strong!
So she couldn't catch her breath and fainted.
When Concubine Hua, who was standing by, saw the man rolling his eyes, she quickly tried to rescue him.
"Queen Mother! Queen Mother!!"
She held up her other arm and shook it.
As if afraid that she would not die.
