Concubine Zhen did not stay in Yulin Palace for too long. She exchanged pleasantries with Concubine Mei for a while before leaving Yulin Palace on the pretext that she did not want to disturb Concubine Mei's recuperation.
As soon as she left, Luo Ya immediately helped Mei Pin to another place while she took the feather fan and fanned the place where Consort Zhen had been. Confused, Mei Pin waited for Luo Ya to explain.
However, Luo Ya did not have the time to explain. The smell of rosemary was intoxicating and lingered for a long time. Luo Ya was really worried that even if Mei Pin did not miscarry, the baby would be deformed.
After a while, Roya felt the smell of rosemary fade. Just as Mei Pin was feeling curious, the people from Zhaoyang Palace came outside the door. Consort Zhen's actions were really fast.
Concubine Mei knew that this palace maid had come to deliver cold cardamom, so she happily went forward to receive it and even gave the palace maid a large reward. It seemed that this guy was deliberately trying to make friends with Concubine Zhen. Because Consort Zhen had eyes and ears, Luo Ya could not explain it to Consort Mei. After the palace servants of the Bright Sun Palace left, Luoya quickly stepped forward and snatched the bag of spices. She did not forget to keep it tight, afraid that a little bit of it would be exposed.
Just as Concubine Mei was about to lose her temper, Luo Ya leaned close to her ear and explained," Your Majesty, please don't be fooled by Concubine Zhen. The raw material of this cold cardamom is similar to the rosemary I saw in my hometown when I was a child. Your Majesty, do you know that this cold cardamom is a poison that can cause a pregnant woman to miscarry or even die?"”
Concubine Mei's body shivered. Luo Ya could clearly feel that her originally warm and soft body had suddenly become stiff and cold. Fortunately, this fellow trusted her, the nanny. Otherwise, things would have been serious. Her small face was pale, and her thin lips, which were originally shiny, were now extremely pale. Her eyes were fixed on Roya.”
Luo Ya nodded solemnly, trying to convince Mei Pin to trust her completely.
"Oh my god!" Concubine Mei exclaimed in surprise. Loya hurriedly went forward to support her. She reached out to grab the bag of spices and pretended to throw it away.
Luo Ya quickly stopped her. She did not want Mei Pin to smell the spices on the ground. That would be equivalent to harming her. So she tried to calm herself down and said to Mei Pin,"Your Majesty, don't panic. Concubine Zhen's intention is to hope that Your Majesty will be tortured by it for a long time and eventually cause a miscarriage." So if the Empress destroys it now, if it accidentally reaches Consort Zhen's ears, then she will pay more attention to you.”
Concubine Mei's body trembled, and her voice trembled like a ghost.”
" Leave this matter to me," Luo Ya suddenly said solemnly." I will secretly destroy it. As for the Empress, you just need to rest in peace and put on an act in front of Consort Zhen."”
"Acting?" Concubine Mei was puzzled.
"Consort Zhen sent cold cardamom fragrance, so the Empress followed her wishes. Whenever she met others, she said that she could not sleep well and was in a panic all day.”Luoya explained step by step," Even if the emperor sends a royal doctor here, you can pretend that you have a poor appetite. The purpose was to make Consort Zhen believe that you were really affected by Leng Kou's fragrance.”
"And then?" Mei Pin tightened her grip on Luo Ya's hand.
Roya thought for a moment and continued,"Then, find a time to deliberately say that a certain imperial physician's methods were brilliant and cured your illness."”
Mei Pin was helpless. She frowned and said,"Consort Zhen is so cunning. Will she believe me?"”
However, Luoya smiled confidently,"I guess she just knows that cold cardamom is a taboo for pregnant women. As for the principle that things counteract each other, she can't help but believe it."”
After hearing Luo Ya's words, Mei Pin's frightened heart felt slightly better. When she thought of how close she had been to Consort Zhen, her heart couldn't help but go numb. She hoped that nothing would happen to the fetus in her stomach.
***************
It was late at night, and Roya was also feeling sleepy. Even Luo Ya, a bystander, was shocked when she found out about what had happened during the day, let alone Mei Pin. This was the inner palace. He still remembered the days when he was in Ye Ting Palace. Although those young masters were also scheming, at least they still had the innocent side when they first entered the palace.
However, Concubine Zhen and Concubine Ru had already evolved into ghosts. In their eyes, life was nothing but an ant. As long as it was worthless, they could abandon it.
Just as she turned around and was thinking about how to be more cautious in the future, there was a sudden knock on the door. The voice seemed to be from Concubine Mei. Did something happen?
Roya sat up and casually put on her shoes before running to open the door. Outside the door, Concubine Mei's hair was disheveled and her expression twisted. There were two palace maids beside her who were supporting her as she stumbled and tried to persuade her, but she did not listen to anything. She only held onto Roya's hand as she pushed the door open and refused to let go.
"You guys can leave first." Luo Ya instructed her attendants as she helped Mei Pin into the room.
The door was closed again. Before Luo Ya could say anything, Mei Pin knelt down in front of her with a thud.”
"Niangniang, please stand up quickly. Now that you are already a concubine, doing this is not reasonable!”Luo Ya persuaded as she supported Mei Pin. However, Concubine Mei shook her head with tears in her eyes. Her expression was sorrowful and sad, with a hint of fear. It seemed that what happened during the day had given her a huge blow.
Loya had no choice but to kneel down as well. She stroked Mei Pin's hair like a mother comforting her daughter. She was only a young girl, but she was caught in the whirlpool of the palace and had no choice. Luo Ya looked at Mei Pin, who was trembling like a frightened bird, and could not help but feel pity for her.
"Empress." Luo Ya called out to Mei Pin, who was in a daze.
Only then did Mei Pin come back to her senses and immediately hugged Luo Ya. I dreamt that Consort Zhen was hitting my stomach hard, and Consort Ru was stabbing me with a knife…So scary, so scary!”Beads of sweat had already formed on her forehead, and her back was cold.
Worried that she would catch a cold and it would be bad for the child, Loya had no choice but to coax and persuade her to help her to her bed.
"Niangniang, that was a dream, not real.”Luo Ya gently patted Mei Pin's back, hoping that she would calm down. However, her body kept trembling." Even if they wanted to harm you, they wouldn't dare to do it so blatantly. There's still the emperor, isn't there?"
Concubine Mei shook her head vigorously,"Your Majesty, water from afar cannot put out a fire nearby."”Tears dripped onto Loya's sleeve. For a moment, she did not know what to do.
"Niangniang, in the depths of the palace, you still have to rely on yourself.”Loya advised," I can help you for a while, but I can't help you forever.”
Mei Pin looked at Luo Ya in shock, her eyes filled with something else. It was as if he had figured something out.
After a while, Luo Ya finally coaxed Mei Pin to sleep. She was not sleeping well. Her brows were slightly furrowed, and her mouth was still pestering Mian from time to time. It was probably not a good dream.
