229, late night assassin

After drinking the medicine, Yuan Zhu lay there a little drowsy. Qin Zhi sat on the chair beside the bed and said nothing with her. It didn't take long before the person stopped talking.

Looking at her face, Qin Zhi couldn't help but shake her head, and fell asleep now. It seemed that she was really tired.

However, she may not be able to sleep like this. If she can't move, her stomach will inevitably be very uncomfortable. Just thinking about it, she feels a little unbearable.

Seeing that she was asleep, Qin Zhi got up and told the palace maid to keep guarding her step by step. She slowly came out of the bedroom.

In the hall, Qiao Ji was talking to a palace maid in a low voice. The palace maid was holding a brush and writing and drawing on a piece of paper.

When he walked over, Qin Zhi took a look at the thing that the palace maid drew on paper, which was the topographic map of the harem.

However, it is not a particularly detailed topographic map, but it is just a route from the palace where Yuanzhe lives to the desolate palaces deep in the harem, including the palace where Concubine Qi is located.

"You first enter the palace, you have to be careful not to take the wrong path and offend the nobles in the palace." Qin Zhi said, looking at the topographic map drawn by the palace maids.

"I'm just worried about this, so I asked this girl to give me some advice." Qiao Ji used this excuse. This little palace maid is very simple and enthusiastic.

"By the way, if the emperor doesn't go to the concubine's place at night, where will he rest?" Qin Zhi suddenly asked.

The little palace maid was stunned and then said, "Rest in Changping Palace. If the emperor goes to any concubine at night, he will take someone to inform other palaces, so that he will not let the lights stay in other palaces wait."

"Where is Changping Palace? You have to pay attention and don't break through it by mistake again." Qin Zhi continued to ask, and Qiao Ji nodded as well.

The little palace maid didn't think much about it and directly drew the direction of Changping Palace.

Looking at it, Qin Zhi nodded slightly, "Thank you, I am still very talented in painting and I paint well."

The little palace maid smiled and said, "Thank you for your praise from the princess. I usually like to draw some tricks, and the empress also said that I painted well." She was also very happy to be praised.

"Okay, if there is nothing wrong, I'll draw a few for me. The silk is embroidered with some tricks, which is really good." Qin Zhi looked at her with a smile, and her attitude was absolutely extremely sincere.

The little palace maid nodded immediately to agree.

Sitting down and looking at the topographic map with Qiao Ji, Qin Zhi pointed at the route with his fingers, "There are so many weeds in these places, where snakes, insects, rats and ants gather. It just so rained outside, and no one went to such places. In the afternoon, you go around and ask for snakes, the more the better."

"I remember the route clearly, so don't worry. I understand what you want to do, and it will definitely relieve you." Qiao Ji smiled. There were some things that didn't need Qin Zhi to say, and she could guess at her expression.

"I feel relieved if you are there. By the way, I have to leave one, I want to give it to that big pig's hoof." His eyes were slightly cold. Not only did Concubine Qi make her angry, but Yuan Wei also made her very dislike.

"I knew you had this idea when you asked him where he was resting at night. It was indeed a lesson. So many good women have been buried here all their lives, and they are all around him. I'm angry when I think about it." Qiao Ji was the one who disliked such a man the most.

"Don't be angry. He is the emperor, so he can't do anything to him, but it's okay to scare him. Anyway, the gods don't know, and the snake can't speak." He picked up the map, rolled it into a roll, and then stuffed it directly into the lamp on the table next to him. The lamp had an open mouth, and the paper roll was stuffed in, and it ignited in the blink of an eye, turning into a pile of ashes.

Following the open window, Qiao Ji stood up and said, "It's raining heavily, I'm going out for a walk. I haven't visited the palace yet, so I'll go see it."

"Go." Qin Zhi nodded slightly. It was said that the moon was dark and windy at night, and it was a day of killing and setting fire. It was a good time to rain. I have to say that God could not bear to see the arrogant and insidious Concubine Qi, so it kept raining.

Qiao Ji went out braved the rain. Even if it rained, she seemed to be careless. She had seen many bloody storms, and simply raining was nothing.

Qin Zhi silently returned to the bedroom, took out a book of the anecdotes placed in the bedroom, and then walked to the bedside and asked the palace maid to retreat to rest, where she stayed here.

Rearing on the back of the chair, Qin Zhi read a book quietly. There was no window in the bedroom, only the door was opened. Keep the fresh air circulating, but it was not too cold.

Yuan Zhu didn't sleep very peacefully, and suddenly his upper body moved and his brows frowned.

Through the quilt, Qin Zhi could sometimes see her belly moving, and her sudden swaying made her feel scary.

It's really not easy, and this made Qin Zhi feel a little scared. All this seems to be natural, but only she knows the sufferings that women suffer, but others can't understand them at all.

He kept sitting by the bed and watching her. It was almost noon before Yuan Zhu woke up.

"You have been guarding me here? Just ask the palace maid to guard me here." He opened his eyes and saw Qin Zhi. Yuan Zhu smiled, but he felt very comfortable. He could see his relatives when he opened his eyes.

"Anyway, it's okay. I just happened to see the books you collected. You still like to read these things, and you're just making up for it at first glance." Qin Zhi put away the book and laughed at her.

"Isn't reading a book just to be happy? It's not like you. You have to memorize it after reading it, so you don't feel tired." They complained to each other that the two people read books differently and their preferences are very different.

"I'm not tired, but you, are you tired now?" I really wanted to help her move her body, but Qin Zhi didn't dare to touch her.

"My body has become stiff, and my stomach is also pressing down on me. I don't know if I can lie on my side. The imperial doctor will come later, so I have to ask him." If she keeps letting her lie like this, she will be disabled.

Qin Zhi grabbed her arm, and other than that, she couldn't do anything for her.

"Hey, where is that Qiao Ji?" Yuan Zhu was curious about what this girl was doing when she didn't see Qiao Ji. It seemed that Qin Zhi took her into the palace, not as if she wanted to understand Man'er.

"She has never seen the palace, so she went out to see it." She said casually while pinching it.

"Call a palace maid to follow her so that she won't get lost and find her way back." Yuan Zhu enjoyed it, reminding her.

"Don't worry. I'll squeeze it for you." Sitting beside the bed, Qin Zhi's movements were still very professional.

After pinching Yuan Zhu's arms and legs, Qin Zhi let go. After pinching this, she seemed to have obviously relaxed a lot.

The time was almost over, and the imperial physician came over and asked for a routine pulse. Qin Zhi kept standing by and watching.

"It's much more stable than in the morning. The Empress needs to be careful at all times. If there is any bleeding, you must send someone to the Imperial Hospital as soon as possible, and you must not delay it." The Imperial Doctor asked for the pulse and then said.

"I don't know what would happen if I really bleed." Yuan Zhu looked at him and asked.

"That will cause labor. However, if you have premature birth, it is very dangerous. Not only the fetus is dangerous, but the mother's body will also be damaged." The imperial physician shook his head while saying, obviously worried about the birth of this situation.

"I heard that, I must keep it well, otherwise it will be very dangerous." In Qin Zhi's opinion, this is very serious and can threaten his life at any time.

Yuan Zhu sighed, "I understand." It seems that he really has to lie down here and can't move.

The imperial physician left and lunch was delivered.

Yuan Zhu mostly eats liquid food because she cannot move while lying here, so eating liquid food is good for her.

However, it was lunch time, and Qiao Ji had not come back yet, and I don’t know where she had been wandering around.

It was almost afternoon, and Qiao Ji came back. The rain had not stopped and her whole body was wet.

"Come on, change your clothes and then have a meal." She must have gained something, and you can tell from her expression.

Qiao Ji nodded and walked into the side hall with the palace maids with brisk steps.

After changing clothes and drying his head, Qiao Ji came out of the side hall. She glanced at the palace maids coming and going, she walked to Qin Zhi and lowered her voice, "Are you going to see the show tonight?"

"I can't go out, I'm here tonight." Seeing the faint smile on her face, Qin Zhi couldn't help but smile. If Qiao Ji could say this, I think there would definitely be a good show tonight.

Because it was cloudy and rainy, the sky soon became darker. Yuan Ji finally came back and entered the hall. He untied the cloak on his body, which was almost soaked.

Bypassing the palace maid who greeted him, Yuan Ji walked towards the bedroom and stopped at the door. Everything inside was as usual before he stepped in.

"The smell of rain, have you been walking outside for a day?" Sitting on the chair beside the bed, Qin Zhi was talking to Yuan Zhu, while Qiao Ji stood aside, studying the lights embedded in the wall.

"The rain is getting heavier in the evening, and it is covered in rain." Yuan Ji raised his hand and touched her face. His hands were also a little cold, which shows that the temperature outside has really become very low.

Looking at the two people who were affectionate with each other in their eyes, Yuan Zhu couldn't help but bend the corners of his lips. In fact, it was also a very happy thing to look at others' happiness.

"By the way, because you were frightened, the emperor has sent someone to Zhucheng. He took his mother to the imperial capital and came to see you, so that you can rest with peace of mind." Looking at Yuan Zhu, Yuan Ji suddenly said.

"Really? That's great. I haven't seen my mother for many years. But I said it, I was not frightened, why don't you listen?" Yuan Zhu realized that he had never been a weak woman. They were frightened at once, and she didn't like to listen.

"I'm still stubborn! Shocking means frightening, and it's up to what the doctor said. If you rest honestly, you won't harm you." Yuan Ji scolded in a low voice, which made people unable to refute at all.

Yuan Xu frowned slightly, but then he understood what Yuan Ji meant, "I heard that the bitter and cold land in the north is also very difficult, and the people stationed there have to suffer a lot. Brother, you should not let the emperor make things difficult. After all, we are all members of the Yuan family, so we still have to think about the Yuan family." Perhaps because of the deep palace, her thoughts are naturally different from those of others.

Yuan Ji stared at her with a very unpromising look, "I have a sense of my own doing things, just keep your own body well, you don't have to worry about everything else."

Yuan Zhu stopped talking, she knew that Yuan Ji wanted to vent her anger.

"Go back." Yuan Ji said to Qin Zhi.

"I won't go back, I'll be with her these days." Qin Zhi shook her head.

"Xiaozhi, go back, there is no one here to guard me." When Yuan Zhu heard this, he immediately advised her to go back.

Qin Zhi stood up and grabbed Yuan Ji's hand and left the bedroom.

"I'll stay here these days, otherwise I'm not very relieved. You go back, it's too late, it's not suitable for you to stay here." Qin Zhi whispered while pulling him to the gate of the hall. His tone was soft and very beautiful.

"I really don't know that you have a deep relationship with Yuan Zhu." I thought that only Yuan Shuo and her had a deep relationship.

"When Chuchu went to your house, except for his father treating me well, he was Yuan Zhu. She is a very good girl. I am very worried about her current situation." Looking at him with a raised face, it was enough for him to know that she was not having a good time at his house seven years ago.

He raised his hand and held her face, Yuan Ji sighed without saying anything, "Okay, it's all my fault. Except for me, they are all good people."

"I didn't say you were a bad guy, why are you taking the right role?" He didn't say anything about it.

After choking, Yuan Ji suddenly lowered his head and bit her forehead, "I can't argue with you. If you didn't see you as so cute, you would have to break down your teeth."

"You're scared me to death." He curled his lips almost without hesitation. Qin Zhi took the umbrella held by the palace maid and stuffed it into his hand, "Go back, come here tomorrow."

After taking a last look at her, Yuan Ji then opened his umbrella and left quickly.

"The time is almost over, I'm out too." Qiao Ji walked to her and whispered.

"Well, hold the umbrella and stop getting wet anymore. It's very cold at night." Qin Zhi couldn't help but bend the corners of his lips.

Qiao Ji put on her cloak, then took the umbrella, and hurriedly left.

The night was long, the sound of rain kept blowing in, and the cold air kept blowing in. There was no way, so I could only close the door.

As the rain became heavier and the night became deeper, and at some point, a faint sound of a woman's screams came.

Perhaps because of the rain, the scream was not heard in a real way, and I wasn't sure which direction it came from.

The palace maid guarding the door couldn't help but open the gap to the door, and the sound of rain became clearer, but the serial screams could be heard more clearly. It should be that there were several palaces, and they were screaming in a terrible way.

At the same time, in the Changping Hall far away in the front hall, a tall and tall figure of snow-green jumped out of the window in a hurry. Perhaps he was in a panic and fell to the ground after jumping out of the window, which made him fall firmly.

Outside, the big inner guards urged him to rush into Changping Hall in a hurry and searched for the "assassin".
