Chronicles of the Modern Empress Dowager

Li Wei has never been out of Zhaoyang Hall since Lishan came back, and the people in the palace knew she was sick.

Early that morning, Mrs. Dun, Mrs. Zhong and others went to the Queen Mother Rongci to ask for peace. During the period, they mentioned Queen Mother Rongxian’s illness. The Queen Mother Rongci was very upset about the matter and said to several wives and concubines: " The Queen Mother Rongxian has just turned 21. She is a young woman. She has always been in good health, but this time she is always ill. I asked several educated doctors, and they all said that there is no special way."

Mrs. Wan said, “Is it because the death of Emperor Zhuang Yi has dealt too much a blow to the Queen Mother Rongxian, and I haven't come out for half a year.”

Mrs. Zhong also said: "Emperor Zhuang Yi died in an unfavorable manner, and Queen Mother Rongxian is afraid it will be difficult to get out of the shadows."

The Queen Mother Rongci sighed and said, "Fortunately, there is no shortage of anything in this palace, and there is a hospital in the hospital. She is also young and will be raised slowly. This life is still long."

Everyone sat together feeling for a while, and then Queen Mother Rongci said that she would go to Zhaoyang Hall with everyone to visit Li Wei.

The early morning sun was not so blazing. Li Wei asked people to move a chair made of wicker willow and put it under the corridor. She sat in the wicker chair, shaking a tapestry fan in her hand. The fan was very vivid with flowers and birds.

A gust of wind blew by, bringing a lot of coolness.

Long Anti walked over with a birdcage, which contained a wax-billed thrush. Long An raised the cage to Li Wei. Li Wei stretched out his hand to tease the bird, and took some millet to feed it. Long An was tame the bird and let the thrush perform well in front of the queen mother. But this bird doesn't admire its face, and it doesn't have its golden voice even after eating millet.

Li Wei was still sitting under the porch, enjoying the rare summer breeze. A quarter of an hour later, the great **** in front hurriedly passed to Li Weitong: "Quite the Queen Mother, the Empress Dowager of Changxin Palace and the others are here to please you."

When the guests came, she had to get up and socialize.

The Queen Mother Rongci and a group of concubines and concubines came to greet Li Wei, and Li Wei entertained them in the side hall of Zhaoyang Hall.

When the Queen Mother Rongci saw Li Wei's first face, she was a little surprised. In just a few days, where did the young and bright woman go before? Right now, the woman's face was gray and sickly. The eyes are sunken, and the cheeks are raised. It seemed to be a lot older overnight, and those eyes were not as bright and clear as before, and there was a thin layer of turbidity.

When the Queen Mother Rongci saw this, she had to care about it.

"Why are you so sick, Queen Mother Rongxian?"

Li Wei's smile was weak and weak, and he calmly said, "Actually, today's condition is pretty good, maybe because the weather is slightly cooler."

Seeing this, the Concubine Dun secretly wiped the corners of her eyes, and then advised Li Wei: "You have to take care of yourself, Queen Mother, and don't think too much about anything else. Please rest assured that we will play cards together when you recover."

Li smiled and said: "I know you are still waiting to turn over the book. When I am done, I will make an appointment for the game. It's just that sister Rongci is too busy and refuses to join us."

Rong Ci pursed his lips and said, "Just wait for you to get better soon. When you're done, I'll make an appointment for a game."

Over there, Mrs. Wan talked about which of these people played the best cards, and Mrs. Dun expressed her opinion: "If you are accurate, it is the noble concubine before that, and I will play cards with her. Often beats by ten and loses by nine..." Before Li Wei's words came to her voice, she suddenly realized that it was not good to respect the concubine before Li Wei, so she was cut off in the middle of the sentence.

Li Wei didn't care much.

Everyone sees that although Li Wei's spirit is not too bad, he is a patient after all and needs a good life and tranquility. Fearing that Li Wei would be upset by staying for a long time, he prepared to leave.

Several people followed the Empress Dowager Rongci out of Zhaoyang Hall, and the Empress Dowager Rongci went straight back to Changxin Palace.

After returning to the palace, the Empress Dowager Rongci and the grandmother in front of her talked about Li Wei's illness, with some regrets in her words: "It's a shame to be young."

"The Queen Mother Rongxian is said to be in good health, and maybe it will be better in two months. Otherwise, the disease will come and go like a thread."

Rong Ci secretly said in his heart, delaying another two months? At the moment, if Kanna Li Wei could step past, she would be her real talent.

After the visitor left, Li Wei went back to the room to rest for a while, but still couldn't sleep. In the afternoon, Zhao Qian, the representative of the Long History of King Shen's Mansion, came to greet Li Wei and sent a few boxes of precious medicinal materials.

Li Wei didn't personally receive the Royal Palace Long History, so he let General Manager Wei do it for him.

It's already time to start the watch, but it's still early days, and the sun hasn't completely set yet.

Toffee Dun adjusted her makeup, and then took the sedan chair to Changxin Palace.

At that time, Queen Mother Rongci was summoning the people from the Pharmacopoeia for questioning, but Princess Dun didn't dare to trespass, so she waited in the penthouse. Later, the emperor came to greet the Queen Mother Rongci. The mother and son said something happily, and by the second shift, the Queen Mother Rongci finally had some free time.

Mrs. Dun stepped forward to salute the Queen Mother Rongci, Rongci said: "There are so many things on hand that you have been waiting for a long time."

Toffee Dun accompanied with a smile: "The Queen Mother is busy with her affairs, and her concubines are bothering her."

Queen Mother Rongci nodded slightly, pointed to the gold embroidered pier in front of her and said, "Don't be polite and sit down."

The Concubine Dun told her to sit down, and the Queen Mother Rongci said slowly, "Do you know why I asked you to come?"

The Concubine Dunn tightly squeezed a Suropa in her hand. She had been prepared since the moment the Queen Mother summoned her, so she nodded slightly if she didn't know.

Empress Dowager Rongci said, "Then you can tell me about the things in the Sanqing Temple."

Du Taifei hesitated for a moment, but finally she spoke.

"The Empress Dowager Rongxian has to practice swords for nearly two hours in the Taoist temple every morning. Basically, she doesn't take a nap. She usually stays outside in the afternoon."

"Oh? She can dance swords with thin arms and legs? It's really surprising. How decent is a queen dowager who can use swords and swords." Empress Rongci looked contemptuously, and then asked: "That afternoon she Where will they go?"

"There is no set figure for this, or go to the nearby market, or go to the field to find a peasant woman to talk, care about the farming, ask about the harvest. And let her pick Zhizhi and another person in the Taoist temple The Taoist aunt made a lot of medicine to give to the poor. Not only that, it is said that Taoist temples will serve porridge at the foot of the mountain every 15th day of the new year, which is what she meant."

The more Rong Ci listened, the more solemn his face became, and then his brows were already locked together. Toffee Dun is also used to being a person who can observe words and expressions. Seeing Rongci's face is unhappy, she can't go on.

"Anything else besides these?"

Toffee Dun shook her head.

Queen Mother Rongci asked again: "Has she never seen any special person?"

"Special person? No."

"Can the regent go to Lishan for a private meeting with her?"

Concubine Dun's face was surprised, she was taken aback for a moment before she said, "It shouldn't be."
