Chapter 334 Allergies
Hearing this, Concubine Mu felt extremely aggrieved, her eyes slightly reddened, but she still fought back her tears, straightened her body and responded, "You sisters were all watching! It was clearly Sister Qi who swung her arms so vigorously just now that caused the chain to break and the pearls to fall. Why are you blaming me?"
"You..." Concubine Qi was choked by her rebuttal and was speechless for a moment, her face turning pale and red.
Seeing that Concubine Qi was speechless, she paused and continued, "Besides, it was me who supported you just now, otherwise you would have fallen down in front of everyone today, and you might even get hurt."
Lady Qi didn't want to lose face in front of everyone, so she said angrily, "Isn't it just a necklace? I'll compensate you!"
"Thank you sister!"
After saying this, Concubine Mu returned to her seat. While picking up her teacup, she stole a glance at Zhen Huan.
Noticing her gaze, Zhen Huan nodded silently and continued to sit there with a smile on her face.
Seeing that the matter had come to an end, Shen Meizhuang ordered, "Caiyue, have someone come in to clean up and bring up the tea and snacks!"
"Yes!" Caiyue accepted the order and quickly retreated to arrange personnel.
Shen Meizhuang turned her head slightly, looking at Concubine Mu with a gentle gaze, a faint smile on her lips, and said softly: "Concubine Mu, today's chaos is all thanks to you for stabilizing the situation in time. You are gentle and kind, and you know how to consider the overall situation. It is really rare.
I have a few necklaces here. Although they are not as valuable as the one given to you by the Emperor himself, I think the style and quality are also very good, and they complement your skin tone very well. You can take them back later as a token of my appreciation for what you did today."
Concubine Mu quickly stood up and saluted: "Thank you for your gift, Your Majesty! I am truly flattered by your kindness. I will serve you even more wholeheartedly in the future!"
"You're welcome, please sit down!"
After a while, Caiyue brought her maid into the hall and served everyone a cup of iced pearl milk tea and a mango smoothie.
The concubines took the drink. The outer wall of the cup was covered with a layer of fine water droplets, which felt icy cold to the touch. They took a sip and felt a coolness spread down their throats and throughout their bodies, which alleviated the unbearable heat.
The atmosphere in the hall, which had been a little dull due to the previous incident, seemed to be dispelled by the slight chill and gradually became lively.
Shen Meizhuang and Zhen Huan held the slightly hot pearl milk tea, looked at each other, both smiled bitterly, and then looked at Caiyue together.
Noticing the gazes of the two masters, Cai Yue said confidently, "This is what Sister Su Ye ordered!"
Feng Ruozhao, who was sitting opposite Zhen Huan, took a sip and exclaimed, "It's delicious. All the heat has gone away with this sip. Caiyue, did you make these or did Su Ye make them?"
Caiyue's face suddenly blossomed with a sweet smile, and she answered obediently: "In reply to the Queen, this was all done by this servant!"
"Cai Yue is becoming more and more capable now. I tasted this and it tasted exactly the same as the one made by Su Ye. And this mango smoothie has a delicate texture, is cool and sweet, and is really delicious. Han Zhu can't make the same taste as yours." Feng Ruozhao continued to praise without hesitation, his eyes full of admiration for Cai Yue.
As he spoke, he glanced leisurely at Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang.
"Thank you for your praise, Your Majesty. If Your Majesty wants to eat it, just give me the order and I will prepare it and send it to You immediately!" Caiyue knelt slightly in salute, and the smile on her face became brighter.
"it is good!"
Zhen Huan and Shen Meizhuang looked at the milk tea in their hands, not knowing whether to drink it or not.
The concubines drank milk tea and chatted quietly with the people they knew. For a moment, the palace was filled with laughter and joy, and there was a rare relaxed atmosphere in the palace.
Concubine Mu felt a little uneasy. At first, she only felt a slight itch on her body. She frowned slightly and tried to adjust her sitting position calmly to relieve the discomfort. However, the itch followed her like a shadow. Not only did it not ease, but it became more intense, as if countless ants were crawling on her body.
Her hands were tightly clutching the corners of her clothes, trying her best to suppress the urge to scratch, but her body gradually became uncontrollable, her back began to twist slightly, her face had already turned red, and a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
Shen Meizhuang, who was sitting at the head of the table, quickly noticed that Concubine Mu was acting strangely. She put down her milk tea and asked, "Concubine Mu, what's wrong with you?"
When Concubine Mu heard the question, she panicked and quickly stood up, her voice trembling a little: "Your Majesty, please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
"It's okay, are you feeling unwell?"
Concubine Mu bit her lip, an expression of mixed pain and embarrassment on her face, and whispered, "My whole body is itchy, it's really unbearable." As she spoke, her body twisted uncontrollably again, and she pinched her arms tightly with both hands, trying to use the pain to distract the annoying itch.
The Concubine Xin who was sitting opposite her looked at her and said, "Sister Mu, why do you have so many red envelopes in your hands?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked over in astonishment.
Shen Meizhuang also came closer to take a closer look and said, "Come here, go get the imperial physician!"
A moment later, Wei Lin trotted over to Yonghe Palace, medicine box in hand. He took Concubine Mu's pulse and carefully examined the red envelope in her hand before saying, "Miss Mu, you're having an allergic reaction!"
After saying this, he opened the medicine box, took out a small porcelain bottle, handed it to Mu Guiren's maid, and said, "Please, young lady, help the young lady take a pill."
The maid hurried to do it.
After a while, Concubine Mu breathed a sigh of relief and felt much more relaxed. The annoying itchiness gradually subsided like the tide.
Seeing that Concubine Mu's condition had improved, Shen Meizhuang finally felt relieved and asked, "You were fine just now, how come you suddenly have an allergy? Do you know what you are allergic to?"
Concubine Mu shook her head slightly and said helplessly, "Since I was a child, I cannot touch fish, shrimp or crabs. Once I do, I will break out in rashes and itchy skin all over my body."
Shen Meizhuang nodded slightly, then asked, "Did you eat these today?"
"I know I can't eat them, so I won't touch them."
"Are you allergic to anything else?"
