Chapter 214 Concubine Liang's Gift is So Hot
Chapter 214 Concubine Liang's Gift is So Hot
Song woke up on the morning of New Year's Eve.
When Song woke up, Rong Enqing and Yun Ye were in the palace. This was the only chance for Shunan Marquis to enter the palace in a year.
However, if possible, Rong Enqing would rather not have this opportunity.
Because he had just entered the palace, Rong Enqing was called alone by a palace maid to Concubine Liang's palace.
After the greetings, Concubine Liang got straight to the point and stated her purpose: "Madam, time is limited, so I will speak frankly. Please don't blame me."
Concubine Liang's attitude remained very polite.
Rong Enqing did not dare to be arrogant, and quickly bowed and responded: "Your Majesty, I am sorry for the humiliation. Please speak."
"I asked Madam Dowager to come here this time because I have a favor to ask of you. Please do me a small favor." Concubine Liang said, and winked at the palace maid beside her.
The palace maid nodded and quickly brought a tray that had been prepared in advance to Rong Enqing.
"This is just a small gift. I hope you will accept it." Concubine Liang smiled and gestured to Rong Enqing.
Rong Enqing did not move, and the maid opened the silk cloth on the tray. On it was a small jade bottle and a ring-shaped jade pendant that was bright in color, finely crafted, and obviously worth a lot of money.
“Your Majesty, what is this…?” Rong Enqing looked at Concubine Liang in confusion.
Rong En had no idea what was in the small jade bottle, but the ring-shaped jade pendant was obviously very expensive.
However, Shun'an Marquis's Mansion was not short of money, and her private storehouse was full of such transparent and valuable jade pendants. Therefore, Rong Enqing did not take the jade pendant seriously. As for the small bottle, she did not even care about it because she did not know what was inside.
Concubine Liang smiled and explained to Rong Enqing, "The small bottle contains the beauty pills that I asked the head of the Imperial Hospital to work with all the doctors in the Imperial Hospital to develop. Take one or two pills, one for oral administration with warm water, and one for external application after dissolving in cold water. It has the effect of removing spots, activating blood circulation, and promoting vitality. This bottle of beauty pills can completely eliminate the scar on the forehead of the second young lady of your family."
After hearing this, Rong Enqing's eyes widened in shock. He looked at the inconspicuous little jade bottle, then looked at Concubine Liang, and couldn't help but blurt out, "Are you serious, Madam?"
If the scar on Yunying's forehead could be completely removed, it would be a relief for her.
But, there is no free lunch in the world.
After the surprise, Rong Enqing quickly calmed down.
Seeing this, Concubine Liang's eyes flashed with surprise. She calmed down so quickly? She is indeed not an ordinary old lady.
Shun'an Marquis's Mansion had already asked Doctor Sun from the County Lord's Mansion to prepare medicine, and the scar on the second girl's forehead had faded a lot. Although her beauty pills were attractive to the old lady who doted on her granddaughter, they were not necessary.
After all, Rong Enqing now knows that the Imperial Hospital can develop beauty pills that can completely eliminate scars. As long as she puts more thought into it, she may be able to find other doctors who can develop something with the same effect.
At first, Concubine Liang wanted the Imperial Hospital to develop a pill to cure Yunying's deafness. Unfortunately, even with the combined efforts of the entire Imperial Hospital, they were unable to develop a successful pill.
Concubine Liang suppressed the regret in her heart and said with a smile: "I have personally verified this medicine."
Pointing to his left index finger, he said, "There used to be a long scar here. It was when I was a kid, I was playing around and said I wanted to peel fruit for my father, but I ended up cutting a big cut on my finger. After the wound healed, the scar remained, and it wasn't until a few days ago that the scar was completely gone."
Rong Enqing looked at Concubine Liang's left index finger, which was as smooth as new, and his thoughts were surging.
It is very common to have scars from finger injuries. Before traveling through time, Rong Enqing had several scars on his left fingers, all from his mischievous childhood. Therefore, what Concubine Liang said was highly credible.
In this case, the efficacy of this bottle of beauty pills is probably real.
However, since Concubine Liang spent so much effort to develop the pill, I’m afraid she had a big request.
"I don't know. What does the Queen want me to do?" Rong Enqing asked the question in his mind.
Concubine Liang smiled and said, "No hurry. Madam, take a closer look at the jade pendant."
Rong Enqing paused, then reached out to take the ring-shaped jade pendant from the tray and looked at it carefully.
Apart from the high quality of the jade, the good appearance and the high price, there seems to be nothing special about it...
Wait, Rong Enqing took the jade pendant closer, put it close to his eyes and looked at it again and again, then he widened his eyes in surprise.
In the subtle part of the jade pendant, there were actually two tiny characters written on it that seemed to be barely there and were almost impossible to detect with the naked eye - "free from death"!
At this moment, Rong Enqing felt his hands trembling.
She quickly put the jade pendant back on the tray, fearing that she would accidentally drop it.
"Madam, did you see it clearly?" Concubine Liang looked at Rong Enqing with a smile on her face, feeling very happy. It was obvious that Rong Enqing's reaction pleased her.
Haha, how could Rong Enqing not be moved by this great gift? After all, this was what she wanted most right now!
Even she, a noble concubine, wanted the pardon of death. How could Rong Enqing, an old lady deeply involved in a family of treason, not want it?
I'm afraid that the one who wants this thing the most in this world is the Shun'an Marquis Mansion!
"I saw it clearly." The shock on Rong Enqing's face had not yet faded, and the uneasiness in his heart was clearly revealed, "I don't know, this jade pendant will exempt one person, or..."
Concubine Liang smiled and said, "Anyone the Madam wants to save can be spared from death."
After hearing this, Rong Enqing couldn't sit still anymore and stood up from the brocade stool. "Are you serious, Madam?"
So, her life is saved! ? Yun Ye, Yun Luo, Yun Ying, Yun Ai... Xiu Zhang, Nan Shan, A Shou... Zhang Shi, Song Shi... their lives are also saved! ?
Seeing Rong Enqing's inappropriate behavior, Concubine Liang did not blame him, but covered her mouth with a handkerchief. She was afraid that she would laugh too exaggeratedly and lose her image.
After Rong Enqing was excited for a while, his emotions calmed down a little and he sat down again. Concubine Liang then restrained her smile and said seriously: "Madam, this jade pendant is a promise made to you by me and the Third Prince."
Oh no! I thought it was a death immunity token bestowed by Emperor Taihe, but it turned out to be a pie in the sky drawn by Concubine Liang and the Third Prince!
The excitement that Rong Enqing had suppressed in his heart disappeared in an instant.
But think about it, if Emperor Taihe really wanted to give her the death-free token, he had to give it to her personally? At the very least, it had to be given by the Empress Dowager or the Queen, so that it would be legitimate, right? What's the point of letting a favorite concubine give her the death-free token?
Moreover, she didn't think that the suspicious Emperor Taihe would be the kind of emperor who would grant someone a death immunity token!
It was also because she had seen the words "free from death" before and was overwhelmed by the surprise, so she ignored it.
Alas! Even such a big pie as the death-free token can be drawn, which shows that Concubine Liang is asking for a lot.
Tsk tsk, the gift is hot!
I just don't know what Concubine Liang wants her to do.
