Traveling to the ancient harem

Chapter 708 The Confused Queen Mother

Cining Palace.

There was a large purple patch on the Empress Dowager's knee, not to mention other people's.

Even the experienced Doctor Hong was frightened when he saw it.

Because the bruises on the Queen Mother's knee have now spread to her calves.

It does look a bit scary.

"Empress Dowager, who beat you like this?"

When I saw the Queen Mother's other leg, there was also a large purple bruise.

Doctor Hong couldn't help but ask.

Because this is so weird.

Normally, no one would dare to lay a hand on a queen mother.

Not to mention that it was obvious that the Queen Mother had been brutally beaten, which was why her legs looked like this.

"Doctor Hong, no one hit the Queen Mother..."

Jiuer looked at Doctor Hong timidly and said.

"How is that possible? The Queen Mother is like this...it's obvious that she was beaten..."

Doctor Hong has been practicing medicine for many years.

He could tell at a glance whether the empress dowager's injuries were caused by being beaten.

The Empress Dowager was so shocked by Doctor Hong's words that she felt ashamed and angry to death.

"Doctor Hong, what happened to my leg? Why are you talking so much nonsense?"

Doctor Hong also knew that the Queen Mother was in a bad mood.

No one would feel good if they were beaten like this.

“It’s okay…it’s okay.”

Doctor Hong carefully pressed the injured part of the empress dowager.

"Empress Dowager, although you were beaten like this, fortunately... no bones were broken."

In Doctor Hong's opinion, the Queen Mother was beaten like this.

Because if he hadn't been beaten, such injuries would never have occurred.

"Didn't I just tell you? No one dares to hit me."

After hearing what Doctor Hong said, the Queen Mother finally felt relieved.

But this Doctor Hong is really bad at talking.

He didn't even think about the fact that in the entire harem, the Cining Palace was the most powerful.

Who else is so desperate that he dares to run to the Cining Palace to beat her up?

Doctor Hong nodded in understanding.

The Queen Mother was afraid that if the news of her being beaten got out, it would be embarrassing, so she refused to admit it.

"I will prescribe some medicine for you now. Apply it to relieve the pain. Drink a few more doses and you will be fine."

Doctor Hong wrote the prescription on the table and asked Jiuer to follow him to the Imperial Hospital to get the medicine.

Look, Doctor Hong took Jiuer away.

Everyone in the room breathed a sigh of relief.

I'm glad everything's fine. I'm just worried that something really happened to the Queen Mother, and they would all be in trouble.

Doctor Hong's words gave the empress dowager some reassurance.

She was no longer as flustered and frightened as she had been before.

Even Xu Rou, the troublemaker, seemed to be more pleasing to her.

But she still felt very displeased when she saw Gao Meiren, who was standing next to her with her head down.

"Go back... If you don't have anything to do in the future, don't come around and get in my way."

The Queen Mother looked at Lady Gao unhappily and scolded her.

If Lady Gao were pardoned.

She quickly squatted down, respectfully bowed to the Queen Mother, and walked out with the lotus.

"aunt…"

Seeing that the Queen Mother's complexion had improved, Xu Rou dared to come over.

"It's all your fault... If it weren't for you, how could I be like that today?"

Looking at Xu Rou's timid look.

The Queen Mother couldn't help but feel a surge of anger rising in her heart.

Now, whenever she thought about it, she would suddenly kneel in front of Miss Gao.

She felt extremely ashamed and angry.

The two people and the eagle lying on the roof were watching with great interest.

It's really amazing that Huang Ye can move freely in such a dangerous place like the roof with a big belly.

This made the secret guards who were protecting her secretly feel very worried.

They were afraid that if something happened to the Queen, their lives would be over.

Of course, seeing Xu Rou being yelled at by the Queen Mother was like a grandson.

The two men and the eagle were also inexplicably excited.

house.

Xu Rou felt very dissatisfied with the Queen Mother's scolding.

But she was feeling guilty now, so she didn't dare to talk back.

She was afraid that the retribution that happened to the Queen Mother would come upon her.

Wasn’t it just a few scoldings from her aunt?

Compared to the suffering her aunt endured...

Xu Rou finally felt guilty. She thought that she deserved the scolding from her aunt.

Because if it weren't for her instigation, what happened today wouldn't have happened.

"Aunt, I'm sorry... It was Rou'er's fault this time... Rou'er was wronged, and I couldn't help it..."

Wait until the Queen Mother has finished scolding.

Only then did Xu Rou apologize to the Queen Mother with tears in her eyes.

It’s said that the Queen Mother is a bit confusing.

Just as Xu Rou pretended to shed a few tears, her anger subsided a lot.

She was not so generous to her own daughter.

For example, peace.

Whenever the Queen Mother mentions An Ning, she still gnashes her teeth in hatred.

"Okay... Fortunately, nothing serious happened this time. In the future, please stop causing trouble for me, and I will be less angry..."

Although she said this, the Queen Mother still felt uncomfortable.

If Rou'er hadn't caused the trouble, why would God punish herself?

It seems that her niece is a troublemaker and she will have to discipline her strictly in the future.

"The Queen Mother is really good to Concubine Xu."

Hongdou pouted in disappointment.

Even the prince felt a little unhappy that Xu Rou was not punished.

The two of them thought that the Queen Mother would definitely not let Xu Rou go after suffering such a great crime.

"The Queen Mother must be afraid that Xu Rou will not come to her Cining Palace in the future, and she will become a lonely person..."

Huang Ye felt that her guess was probably correct.

The Queen Mother has been powerful all her life, and now she lives alone in the Cining Palace.

She has no power now and doesn't like to go out.

Therefore, her current source of information is Xu Rou and Shi Yaoyao.

After all, Shi Yaoyao is a layer away from her, and is definitely not as close to her as Xu Rou, her niece from her mother's side.

Let’s talk about Shi Yaoyao.

The Queen Mother now looked at Shi Yaoyao with great displeasure.

Shi Yaoyao is like a taciturn person. Whenever there are people around, she can hardly say a word for a long time.

Just like in occasions like today, Rouer would always rush forward to help her speak.

And this talented historian.

From beginning to end, she never said a word against that beautiful lady Gao.

It seems that the tea she drank every day was really in vain.

Seeing the empress dowager looking at her with gloomy eyes, Shi Yaoyao immediately perked up.

She knew that these two unreasonable aunt and nephew would start to shirk responsibility and blame her again.

"Shi Cairen, why didn't I hear you say a word just now?"

Before the Queen Mother finished her question, Xu Rou took over.

"Aunt, please don't ask. Shi Cairen is used to pretending to be a good person. She will never show up and offend others."

Hearing Xu Rou's lies, Shi Yaoyao quickly knelt down.

"Empress Dowager, things are not as Concubine Xu said. You know, my position is too low. Concubine Gao is several levels higher than me. I have no right to speak."
