My eunuch An is a yandere

The royal family values ​​reputation, and even though everyone knows the truth, Feng Chongyuan cannot really admit to the crime of murdering the minister's child.

So Feng Chongyuan knelt at the empress dowager's feet and cried bitterly.

"I was just curious. The fruit smelled so good and looked like something I had never seen before, so I played with it for a while. I didn't get a rash, so I didn't take it seriously..."

This is a lie. It's just a fruit. No matter how domineering he is, he can't have infected so many children with just a little effort. He must have used other means.

Xiao Duo was displeased when he heard this, but he just kept a cold face and tried to make a small matter out of a big deal.

"Ignorance is not a crime. This was an accident. I think you should be punished by copying a copy of the Ksitigarbha Sutra for each child..."

Bai Ningwei saw the emperor trying to brush the matter off lightly, but she couldn't accept it. The other party had already opened fire on her, and this wasn't just a matter of words. If she didn't teach them a lesson, they might resort to some shady tactics next time.

"Your Majesty, Feng Chongyuan will need time to copy the sutras, but the children's suffering cannot be delayed any longer. I heard that the palace recently released a new sheep fat cream that is very moisturizing. Why not have Feng Chongyuan give a jar of it to each child to relieve their suffering first?"

Xiao Duo felt that this method showed more sincerity, so he nodded in agreement.

"Let's do it this way. The scriptures cannot be left behind."

After saying this, Xiao Duo walked away. He had no idea what mutton-fat cream was, let alone its value.

When Feng Chongyuan heard that she was asked to buy a jar of mutton fat ointment for each child, she fainted on the spot.

The emperor's promise is worth a thousand gold, so she must give it to him.

But the Jingshifang asked for two hundred taels per bottle of this sheep fat cream, and moisturizing cream is not an ointment. Concubine De did it on purpose!

Bai Ningwei looked at Feng Chongyuan's face, which had lost all color, and then she withdrew her gaze with satisfaction and made a promise to the ladies.

"The babies are exhausted today. Everyone, go back first. Feng Chongyuan will send someone to deliver the sheep fat cream to your house soon."

In Kunning Palace, Empress Dowager Feng sat on the throne and wished she could kick this incompetent man to death.

"How much did you say? Tell me again how much silver is a jar of mutton-fat cream?"

"Aunt, it's two hundred taels of silver per jar. Concubine De did it on purpose. The sheep-fat cream was developed by the people in the Jingshifang and is only for moisturizing the skin. Anyone who needs extra will have to pay for it."

Feng Chongyuan really cried this time. There were at least forty or fifty children who had rubella today. If each of them really had to have a can, the Feng family would probably have to sell the house.

"How dare you say that! I thought you were a promising person, but who knew you were useless! You said you didn't focus on the emperor, so why did you go looking for trouble with Bai?"

"I am also doing this for the glory of my family. I hope to succeed the Bai family and get the position of kindergarten principal. Aunt, please save me!"

The Kunning Palace was bustling all night long. In the end, the empress dowager swallowed her pride and summoned people from the Jingshifang. She used her status as the empress dowager to pressure them and barely helped the Feng family overcome the crisis.

However, the Feng family eventually lost a lot of their property because of this incident and became a laughing stock.

It turns out that the raw material of this mutton fat cream, mutton fat, although extremely moisturizing, has a fishy smell. In order to make it into a cream, a variety of expensive spices and medicinal materials are needed.

Not to mention that mutton fat was obtained by the barbarians in the north by degreasing wool and the quantity was limited, even the other materials were bought out of the Jingshifang's own pocket in order to make money.

So if you want mutton fat cream, you either have to give silver or something, otherwise the Jingshifang will say they don’t have it.

As the saying goes, people die for money and birds die for food. For the sake of money, even if the other party is the empress dowager, the people in the Jingshifang will find a way to make money.

Don't you want to pay? Then buy the materials.

He presented a rather unremarkable list, and even emptying the Feng Mansion's cash wasn't enough, so he pawned quite a few things to barely scrape together the funds. Fortunately, he managed to save the house, which was considered a way to save his reputation.

Palace fighting also comes at a cost. Feng Chongyuan directly cut off her own source of income, and it would take her several years to recover.

Bai Ningwei didn't care how anxious others were. She had her own busy schedule right now.

Xiao Yuan'er was stunned when she saw Bai Ningwei's red and swollen mouth.

The first time he lost his composure in his life was because he saw Hui Mufei's mouth swell up like a sausage after eating mangoes greedily.

"Are you all dead? Didn't anyone stop me when I saw the Empress get rashes from eating the fruit?"

Xiao Yuan'er angrily scolded Gualu Caihe.

Gualü kept his head down and said nothing, but Caihe was more courageous.

She muttered softly what Bai Ningwei had said at that time.

"The Queen said that although eating this fruit will cause rashes, as long as she eats enough, she will be desensitized and will never get rashes again."

What is desensitization? What desensitization? Xiao Yuan'er didn't understand, but she saw clearly that Bai Ningwei had eaten herself into this state. She couldn't go out for the next few days.

"What are you standing there for? Call the doctor!"

"The Queen is afraid of being embarrassed, so she doesn't allow us to scream."

Gualv lowered his head and spoke in a sullen voice.

"Are you embarrassed now? Why didn't you think about it while eating?"

Xiao Yuan'er was so anxious that she paced around in the hall.

"I ate five of them."

Hezi also took the opportunity to complain.

When Bai Ningwei heard the number five, she couldn't help but grin. She hadn't expected herself to be so greedy. Then, the pain at the corner of her mouth made her face frown.

Xiao Yuan'er saw this and was furious.

"How can you go out like this? Don't you care about your studies? The talent show is coming up soon. If you don't seek treatment from the imperial physician, how can you show up then?"

Bai Ningwei knew she was in the wrong, so she covered her handkerchief and kept silent. She was being arrogant, thinking that eating mango would only make her mouth red, swollen, and itchy, and that she could just bear it.

But I didn't expect this body to react so strongly. Not only was it so red and swollen, but the itchiness had passed, and now when I opened my mouth, I felt a stinging pain and tightness, as if there were countless small cracks in my mouth.

This situation is a bit bad.

If you feel right, even if the swelling goes down, your mouth will still become flaky, dry, and itchy. You'll unconsciously want to lick your lips, which will aggravate the condition and cause further flaking and itching. This cycle will repeat itself, and it will take about a week to fully recover.

This timeline is indeed a bit long.

Bai Ningwei felt guilty, and she felt that she really couldn't hide her illness and avoid seeing a doctor, but today was definitely not the right time. She had to wait until the swelling subsided tomorrow before summoning the imperial physician.

Seeing that she couldn't convince her, Xiao Yuan'er turned around and left angrily.

Since Concubine Hui's mother is unwilling to see the imperial physician, she should go to the imperial hospital to get some ointment to relieve her pain.

Huan'er was surprised to see the eldest princess rushing to help Concubine De. She didn't know when the eldest princess started to care so much about Concubine De.

"Now the princess is very concerned about Concubine De."

When Xiao Yuan'er heard this, she glared and retorted angrily.

"Who cares about her? I'm worried about the selection in two days. If Concubine Hui can't attend, will that fool Concubine Shu get the upper hand?"

"That's what the princess said."

Huan'er suppressed her laughter and didn't expose her master's duplicity.

They were all consorts, and the princess called other consorts "Shufei" and "Xianfei". Only when facing Defei, she always called her "Huimufei".

Who can't tell the difference between closeness and distance between them?
