Rebirth of the High Gate Mistress

 Pingyang and Pei Yunqian left Prince Yong's Mansion, and it was already dark.

Pei Yunqian said to Pingyang: "Let's go, I'll take you back home first."

The Duke's Mansion and Pei Yunqian's residence were not on the way. Pingyang declined and said, "You and your elder brother drank a lot today. Please let the servant **** you back to rest. I'm taking the servant girl with me and the coachman is safe. no need to worry."

"It's snowing." Pei Yunqian said, without waiting for Pingyang to refuse, he urged Yuzhu: "Help the princess get in the car."

After Pingyang sat firmly, Pei Yunqian told the coachman to drive more slowly, then he got on his horse and protected Pingyang towards the Zhenguo Palace.

The carriages and horses crushed the snow on the road, making a "creak" sound. When Pingyang came out, Ms. Xie ordered someone to bring her a hand warmer. It wasn't cold at all. Through the gap in the car window, she saw Pei Yunqian holding his hand. Feng Xue stood outside the car, feeling very sorry, but she also knew his temper, and he would definitely not give up until she was returned to the house safely.

Pingyang opened the car window, and the cold wind outside blew into the car. She subconsciously tightened her hand holding the hand stove, looked at Pei Yunqian against the wind and snow, and asked, "You just returned to Beijing, where are you?" Are those servants still useful? Do you want me to add a few more people? Now that you have received an errand, there will inevitably be guests in the house from time to time, so everything should be refined. "

Pei Yunqian has not lived in the capital much since he bought a mansion. The servants in his mansion were picked by Pingyang Yuzhu from the Zhenguo Duke's mansion when he first bought the house.

Pei Yunqian turned his head to look at Pingyang and replied: "No, I live alone. I don't need so many people to serve me. Even if there are guests, there are enough people."

As he spoke, he called to Yuzhu who was also in the car: "It's windy outside, please close the window quickly."

Yuzhu was about to raise her hand to close the window, but was stopped by Pingyang. She looked at Pei Yunqian and continued: "Brother and sister-in-law are right. You are now a grown-up. It's time to start a family."

After Pei Yunqian heard this, he smiled slightly, looked at Pingyang and said, "Now you are becoming more and more like a wife of a great family, like a sister-in-law, who likes to worry about everything."

Seeing that he didn't care, Pingyang added, "You have a family. Not only will you have someone to take care of you, but it will also be good for your future."

“She keeps saying one thing after another. She is really becoming more and more like a sister-in-law.” As he said that, he leaned over to close the car window and said, “Don’t worry, otherwise, you will get old easily.”

Pingyang glared through the car window and murmured: "I really don't know good people's hearts."

The two of them said nothing more. Halfway there, Pei Yunqian said through the car window: "Li Xiang is here to pick you up, so I'll go back first."

Pingyang was sitting in the car drowsily. After hearing this, he quickly opened the window again and saw that it was indeed Li Xiang riding towards him on horseback. Looking at Pei Yunqian again, he had turned around and rode in the opposite direction. went.

Li Xiang rushed forward, threw the horse's reins to the accompanying boy, and lifted his legs to get on Pingyang's carriage.

Pingyang moved his seat for him, glanced at the official uniform that he had not yet changed out of, and said, "Have you just returned from duty?"

Li Xiang nodded and said: "I just came back from the palace. I heard that Lan Tian said that you were at the elder brother and sister-in-law's place, so I came directly to pick you up."

Pingyang asked: "Why did you come back so late today?"

Li Xiang replied: "The emperor's sister-in-law is sick. I saw that the emperor was anxious, so I stayed in the palace for a while." After saying that, he glanced outside and asked, "I saw cousin Pei following you just now." Did you meet him on the road when he came back? Or did he also go to Big Brother's place?"

When Pingyang heard that Jingshu was ill, she was worried about it. She didn't have time to answer Li Xiang's question, so she hurriedly asked: "Didn't I say that the Queen's Wife was just tired and a little uncomfortable a few days ago? She's not feeling well yet. ? What did the imperial doctor say? Is it serious?" Li Xiang sighed slightly and replied: "The imperial doctor saw it a few days ago and it was indeed caused by fatigue. He just took medicine for a few days but it still didn't feel better. Today it looks better. It’s getting a little heavier.”

"How could this happen?" Pingyang exclaimed anxiously, and then asked, "There are so many doctors in the imperial hospital, why haven't they been diagnosed? What kind of disease is it?"

“Not to mention the imperial doctors at the imperial hospital, even the old imperial doctors who were so frightened that they were sent to work were all summoned back by the emperor’s brother. In short, they really didn’t see what the problem was.”

Seeing that Pingyang's face turned pale with nervousness, he hurriedly comforted her and said, "Don't be anxious. The emperor's sister-in-law just feels weak now, but she has no other symptoms. The imperial doctors are discussing it together."

Pingyang said worriedly: "When I heard what you said, my heart was beating so fast. No, I want to go to the palace to see my sister-in-law."

"What time is it now? The palace gate is about to be unlocked." Li Xiang stopped Pingyang and advised, "Go ahead. Let's go there together tomorrow."

Pingyang stroked his chest and murmured: "The doctors in the palace are all national experts, how could they not diagnose the cause?"

"No, I will suggest to my second brother tomorrow that we invite a doctor from outside to come into the palace and have a look. Didn't Dr. Zhang from the East Street Medical Center say that he specializes in treating difficult and complicated diseases? He said that many noble people in Beijing queue up to see him. "

Li Xiang sighed and said: "The imperial doctor is currently discussing the matter, but the decision has not yet been made."

 She patted Pingyang's hand and said comfortingly: "Don't be anxious. It doesn't look like there's anything wrong with the emperor's sister-in-law. She'll be fine."

When they returned to the house, the couple just entered the courtyard and saw Xu Wanning walking towards them.

When he saw Li Xiang, he hurriedly came forward and asked, "I heard Brother Ping came back and said that the queen is sick, but is it true?"

Li Xiang replied: "The imperial doctor is currently diagnosing and treating her, so don't be anxious yet."

Xu Wanning was always impatient, and she was so anxious after hearing this: "Oh, I heard that my second brother even invited the old doctor who became an official to come back. If he is not seriously ill, how can he mobilize troops and mobilize people like this?"

"I can't wait any longer, so I want to go to the palace and have a look."

As she spoke, she looked at Li Xiang and said, "Don't you have a token to enter the palace?"

Li Xiang said: "The imperial doctor is discussing countermeasures at the moment. You'd better not go into the palace to cause trouble. Besides, there is too much noise in the middle of the night. It would be great if my grandmother is alarmed."

Xu Wanning still insisted, Pingyang advised: "I am also anxious to see my second sister-in-law, but it is not appropriate to enter the palace in the middle of the night. Forget it, let's go when the palace doors open tomorrow."

　　"This matter must be hidden. Grandma cannot know about it. She is not in good health at the moment, and she can't help but get angry."

Xu Wanning listened to Li Xiang and his wife's advice and finally suppressed her temper. She sighed and returned to Xiyuan helplessly.

 Pingyang returned to the yard, washed up and went to bed, but Jingshu's illness was always on his mind. He tossed and turned and couldn't sleep well all night.
