After Zhu Feng left the night before, Wang Baizhi from the Imperial Hospital came to see him immediately, saying that he could not sit for a long time and had some strain on his waist and back, which was not a big deal.

He asked Nanyan to walk around for a while in the past two days and then add decoctions to cure it soon.

So, this day was accompanied by bitter soup.

The next morning, as soon as I opened my eyes, the decoction was delivered again.

Looking at the light smoke coming out of the green jade bowl and the bitter smell spreading into the air, Nanyan felt extremely bitter. After breakfast, she drank it sipped by bite under the supervision of Aunt Tongyun.

All the faces were wrinkled together.

She said, "Drink two more bowls of such medicine, let alone whether my waist can be cured, my illness is almost done."

Aunt Tongyun immediately said, "Empress, really, how can you curse yourself in your illness like this?"

As he said that, he shook his head.

He turned his head again and was about to ask Ran Xiaoyu to give her some candied fruit, but Nian Qiu was already cleverly holding a plate of pickled plums with sugar. Nan Yan hurriedly took it and ate it before removing the bitterness in his mouth.

I suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

Aunt Tongyun said again: "After the meal, the empress will take a break, and Nianqiu will accompany the empress to walk in the yard. Yesterday, Doctor Wang also said that the empress must walk a little the next two days."

Nian Qiu immediately agreed. Now, she has been trained by Nan Yan several times, and she is alert and agile in doing things. Aunt Tongyun can also feel at ease to leave many things to her.

So I went down and got busy.

After a while, it was almost time, Nian Qiu helped Nanyan out. Yikun Palace was originally not small, and the yard in front was very spacious. In addition, someone came to clean up the snow early in the morning. The road was clean and it was smooth.

After the two walked for a while, Nian Qiu said, "Empress, the imperial physician said, don't walk for too long. Seeing that the empress's steps were getting heavy, I'll go back and take a break after walking for a while."

“Okay.”

So, the two of them walked around the yard for a half-way circle and just around the gate of Yikun Palace. They saw a familiar figure walking outside, just in time to run into them.

The man hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed: "I pay homage to the concubine."

"Who are you"

Nan Yan was stunned for a moment before recognizing it: "Madam Su?"

"It's a slave."

“…”

This Madam Su is the one who was in the cold palace. Nan Yan went in and out of the cold palace several times after that. Because of the special circumstances, she had never met her much.

But unexpectedly, she came to find her.

Nan Yan said: "Is there anything you have?"

The Madam Su said, "I have some things to report to the Empress, and I have to hand them over to the Empress."

Nan Yan thought about it and said to her: "Go inside."

As he said that, he turned around and walked in. The Madam Su immediately followed and entered the house.

The room was very warm, but Madam Su's face turned paler, as if she was less comfortable than in the cold palace. Nanyan took off her big clothes, sat on the couch, and said, "Why did Madam suddenly come to me today?"

The Madam Su stood in front of her, lowered her head and said, "Does Empress know about Madam Qin?"

"she?"

When Qin Ruolan was mentioned, Nan Yan frowned unconsciously.

Although she had made a big fuss in Jianfu Palace before and she protected her, it did not mean that she liked her. What Qin Ruolan had done before still made her mention this person, and she felt unhappy.

She said: "I know that she was sent to the cold palace."

“…”

"However, Feng Qianyan's incident can be regarded as clearing her grievances. Shouldn't she be able to come out now?"

Madam Su whispered: "Miss Qin did not leave the cold palace, she still stayed there."

"No? Why? Who doesn't let her leave?"

"It's her."

"Own?"

"She said that she was willing to stay in the cold palace, eat vegetarian food and chant Buddha's name, and she would live this life."

“…”

Nan Yan raised his eyebrows slightly.

Qin Ruolan, who is desperate for love, eats vegetarian food and chants the Buddha's name to survive this life? This is not very similar to the choice she would make.

However, when she thought of King Zhu Chengxuan of Wei, she understood.

Thinking about it, Feng Qianyan gave birth to a dead baby, which made the queen stop thinking, and Qin Ruolan was completely awake. This was the only way to save his son.

She was considered to begging for mercy from the queen.

Nan Yan said lightly: "Since it is her choice, I have nothing to say. What should I do when the nanny comes to find me?"

Madam Su said: "A few days ago, a palace maid died in the cold palace. The empress already knows this."

“…!”

Nanyan's breathing froze.

Of course she knew that it was Feng Shu who died!

But, what did she do when she talks about this?

Could it be that like other people in the palace, they thought they were cruel and ruthless and forced a man to death?

Seeing Nanyan's face darkened, Madam Su hurriedly said, "Don't misunderstand the Imperial Concubine. Because I was taking care of the cold palace, after the palace maid's body was removed, some of her things were taken by me and I took them to clean up."

"thing?"

Nan Yan frowned again. She had been to Feng Shu's room, which was almost four walls, even the windows and bed curtains were broken. Other things were clear at a glance. What else could be found?

So he asked, "What?"

The Madam Su took out a flat bag from her arms.

It was a bag wrapped in a whole piece of blue cloth. Although it was a bag, it was flat and soft, with almost no shape or weight. No wonder it could be stuffed into your arms.

Nan Yan was a little puzzled, what could he pretend to be?

Madam Su presented the bag to her.

When Nanyan took it, it was almost as heavy as a piece of cloth, so light that it was almost blown off by the wind.

Nan Yan didn't open it directly, but just frowned and looked at her, saying, "Why did you give it to me?"

Madam Su lowered her head and said, "These things should have been cleaned up, but when I saw this thing, I felt strange, so I put them away."

“…”

"Later, I also showed it to Niang Qin."

"She, what did she say?"

"She said that if she asked the servant to bring it to the Empress, I was afraid that the Empress would know what it was and what its meaning was."

“…”

Nan Yan's brows frowned again.

Qin Ruolan asked her to give it to herself, would she be so kind?

What exactly is this?

After Madam Su handed her the things, she took a step back and bowed: "I will take my leave."

After saying that, he stepped out.

Nan Yan frowned and thought for a while, put the bag on his knees, slowly opened it, and a piece of dirty rag was exposed.

It seemed to be pulled from some clothes.

After a closer look, it seemed that it was the clothes she wore when she saw Feng Shu that day.

There were blood marks on the rag.
