Chapter 175 Wei Lin Enters and Exits Yongshou Palace

One day, Zhen Huan felt that she had gotten much better and didn't want to lie on the bed any longer, so she asked Liu Zhu to come and help her dress up.

"Doctor Wen arrived a little late today. Normally, he would have come to check my pulse at this time."

Liu Zhu looked outside and saw that Wen Shichu had not appeared yet, so he muttered something in surprise.

"I spoke to Imperial Physician Wen yesterday. He's now the head of the Imperial Hospital and must be very busy on a daily basis. If there's nothing urgent, I can just ask his disciple Wei Lin to come over. I think he should be here soon."

This Wei Lin had come to Yongshou Palace with Wen Shichu before. Zhen Huan had seen him several times and thought he was a reliable person. With the relationship with Wen Shichu, she thought he would definitely do his best.

"My lady, Doctor Wei is here."

Just as Zhen Huan was talking to Liu Zhu, Jin Xi walked in.

"Please ask him to come in."

"Doctor Wei, my queen is inside, please come in."

After Jinxi brought Wei Lin in, she consciously retreated with Liuzhu.

"Your humble servant pays respects to the Empress Xi."

"Doctor Wei, please don't be polite. I will be troubling you in the future. Your master has just been promoted recently. I know he must be very busy. I will trouble you to take care of him."

"Your Majesty, you are too kind. It is my humble servant's honor to serve you. I would also like to thank you for your trust. I will definitely live up to your expectations in the future."

Wei Lin knew that it was actually Concubine Xi's idea that he was chosen by Wen Shichu to come to Yongshou Palace to check Concubine Xi's pulse. Wen Shichu did not hide this from him at all, just to allow him to be more attentive to relieving Concubine Xi's worries.

Now Zhen Huan's body has almost recovered under Wen Shichu's previous treatment. After taking her pulse carefully, Wei Lin also used the previous prescription, but slightly reduced the dosage of a few herbs.

"Your Majesty is still young, so she will surely recover quickly. However, you need to be more careful about your diet and avoid cold foods."

"Your master has mentioned these to me before, but I was a little greedy before. Now I will remember them."

"That would be the best. Your Majesty's health has been very good, so there's no need to worry too much. She will definitely recover in the future."

"I understand. I'm sorry to trouble the Imperial Physician."

"Your Majesty, you are too polite. This is my duty. I will take my leave now."

Before Wei Lin came, Wen Shichu told him that Concubine Xi was not a nosy lady and that he only needed to do his own job well.

"Liu Zhu, go and see off Doctor Wei."

"yes."

Liu Zhu, who had been guarding the door, immediately walked in and asked Wei Lin to leave after hearing what Zhen Huan said.

Liu Zhu had seen Wei Lin several times in the palace before, so he was somewhat of an acquaintance. When Liu Zhu took him out, she secretly took another look at him.

Before entering the palace, she always thought that the imperial physicians in the palace were all white-haired old men. Later, when she learned that Wen Shichu was also an imperial physician in the palace, she was surprised. Unexpectedly, Wei Lin looked even younger than Imperial Physician Wen.

"Miss Liu Zhu, do you have anything to say?"

When Liu Zhu looked at Wei Lin again, Wei Lin asked with a smile.

"No, no, Doctor Wei, take care."

Perhaps she was caught peeping at others, and Liu Zhu suddenly felt her face burning as if it was on fire. She immediately lowered her head, saluted Wei Lin, then quickened her pace and turned to walk into the palace.

Of course, at this moment, she did not see Wei Lin's slightly raised mouth corners.

…

Inside the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

"Your Majesty, these are some pastries that I asked the kitchen to make. Please try them."

The queen placed the food box she brought on the table and personally picked up a few pieces of cake and placed them on the plate for the emperor.

"Thank you, Queen."

The emperor did not express much about the queen's behavior, but was just polite in his words.

"By the way, Your Majesty, the matter of Concubine Xi's miscarriage has now been completely resolved. To be honest, it was all my fault for not managing the harem properly, which led to this incident. I just hope Concubine Xi will not blame me."

Although the matter was resolved as she wished, the Queen still had a knot in her heart. She didn't believe that Lan Da Ying would become stupid for no reason. After so much time, how could Zhen Huan let go of such a great humiliation so easily? The current calmness made her feel even more uneasy.

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Besides, Concubine Xi isn't such a petty person. She didn't say anything, so you don't have to keep remembering it."

When talking about this matter, the emperor's face looked a little ugly. He knew very well that he had wronged Zhen Huan in this matter. However, he was the emperor, and even if he doted on Zhen Huan, sometimes he had to let the woman he loved suffer some grievances for the sake of the balance of power in the court. He could only make up for it in other places in the future.

The Queen saw that the Emperor was so unhappy just by mentioning Zhen Huan, and she could hardly control the jealousy on her face. She took a few deep breaths in her heart, calmed herself down, and her face always had her usual magnanimous expression.

"Yes, I understand."

The queen just silently picked up a few more pieces of cake for the emperor, poured him a cup of tea, and waited quietly by the side.

"By the way, how is Fourth Prince doing these days? I've been quite busy with government affairs these past few days, and haven't had the time to test his studies."

"Your Majesty, rest assured. I supervise him every day. Just before I came to your place, I tested him on his homework, and he answered all the questions fluently. The Fourth Prince is quite diligent."

When the Queen heard the Emperor asking about the Fourth Prince, she was naturally happy. Now she placed all her hopes on the Fourth Prince, hoping that one day she could sit on that supreme position.

"The Fourth Prince is indeed a good child. Thank you for your hard work. You have been very attentive to him these days."

"I am his mother, so it's only natural for me to do this. Besides, I don't have any children of my own. Now that he is by my side, I can say that we are destined to be mother and son."

The emperor showed no other expression in response to the queen's words. He was holding up the teacup to drink tea to moisten his throat, and his eyes were not on the queen. Naturally, he did not see the strange expression on the queen's face when she mentioned her own child.

"Okay, if you have nothing else to do, you can go down first. I have other things to do here."

After putting down his teacup, the emperor directly dismissed the queen. He was becoming increasingly impatient with her and was only trying to maintain a superficial harmony.

"Yes, I'll take my leave."

The queen did not raise any objection to the emperor's actions, but her clenched hands revealed her inner thoughts.
