When I found out I had become the [Most Beautiful Woman], [Most Respected Woman], [Number One Talented Woman], and [Most Beautiful and Virtuous Empress] of the Great Xia Dynasty...
Su Chang...
Chapter 586: Queen: You’d better admit your mistake, otherwise it’s not over!
Li Xingyue ran from Chengtian Gate to Lingqi Pavilion without stopping for a moment, which made her exhausted.
But the one who really suffered was Mr. Zhang Wenjing. He was over 70 years old and was dragged by Li Xingyue all the way without even a break. He was too old to withstand such hardship. Fortunately, the old man took good care of himself and was in good health, otherwise he would have passed away.
After settling Mr. Zhang Wenjing down and allowing him to have a good rest, Su Changan looked at Li Xingyue.
Although Li Xingyue was a little overwhelmed by Su Changan's white hair, she was relieved when she heard that he was fine and just needed to take good care of himself.
Of course, he also explained why he said Su Changan was no good.
Li Xingyue had to go to the Secretariat today on his errand for the Palace Administration Department. He happened to want to see his father, and also wanted to know the news that the Queen had returned, so he thought of going to Lingqi Pavilion to take a look. After all, there were all kinds of rumors in the market that the Queen was seriously ill.
But just after walking out of the Secretariat, she saw many scholars on Weiyang Street. After listening curiously, Li Xingyue heard the students discussing something like 'His Majesty brought the Queen back early, and summoned Zhang Wenjing immediately. Is the Queen dying?' 'The Queen didn't even show up, and Xun Siye didn't look well.' And so on.
After hearing this, Li Xingyue wanted to go to Lingqi Pavilion immediately.
I happened to see Zhang Wenjing, and Su Qingning who brought Zhang Wenjing with her.
Before Li Xingyue could say anything, Su Qingning immediately grabbed Li Xingyue and cried, "Is my elder sister dying?"
Li Xingyue didn't know why Su Qingning said that, and she immediately panicked. Then she told Su Qingning what the students outside had said.
Zhang Wenjing wanted to explain, but Su Qingning said, "It's bad, something must have happened! Otherwise, why do so many people say this? Xingyue, I will go home and tell Grandpa that you take Master to Lingqi Pavilion!"
Su Qingning ran away in a hurry.
Zhang Wenjing wanted to stop it but it was too late.
Before the old gentleman could say anything, Li Xingyue pulled him to Lingqi Pavilion.
After saying this, Li Xingyue drank some water, then looked at Su Changan and said, "It's all Qing Ning's fault. She used to be like this. It's also my fault. I knew she had said before that you would die, but I listened to her this time."
When she said this, Li Xingyue immediately covered her mouth, bit her lips and looked at Su Changan.
Su Changan stretched out his hand and rubbed his brow, "She said I was dead, more than once?"
Li Xingyue didn't dare to speak.
On the other hand, Zhang Wenjing shook his head and said, "Don't be angry, Madam. It's just that the rumors in the city have been too strong in recent days. If this old minister has not received any news from Lord Sun, he will be a little anxious."
Zhang Wenjing calmed down at this time and came to Su Changan and saluted respectfully.
Su Changan didn't care. He just stretched out his hand and let the old man take his pulse. After all, the other party knew that he was a man, so it was okay.
Su Changan, on the other hand, just smiled and said nothing. Very good, Qingning said I was going to die, and it happened more than once!
Um?
But suddenly, Su Changan realized something and immediately looked at Lian Wei: "Lian Wei, go stop Qing Ning immediately. Don't let her go back to the mansion and talk nonsense."
Lian Wei clasped his fists and immediately turned and left.
Zhang Wenjing raised his hand at this time, his face a little surprised. The old man had treated too many people, including some masters of the martial arts world. It was not a good thing to have gray hair at a young age, but how could this pulse diagnosis be so accurate?
In the yard, everyone was looking at Zhang Wenjing.
Including Shentu Kuyue, who was eating a mouthful of oil.
He looked at Zhang Wenjing with surprise, sighed, frowned, and then began to take her pulse.
Aunt Sun, Xun Xia and others felt a pang in their hearts.
Li Xingyue stared at him, wondering if Qing Ning was right.
Su Changan looked at Zhang Wenjing: "Sir?"
Zhang Wenjing shook her head, took her hand away from Su Changan's wrist, and then frowned and said, "It's strange, your Majesty's pulse..."
As he spoke, Zhang Wenjing glanced at the hot pot on the side, and then asked, "Have you taken any prescriptions, medicinal materials, or medicinal foods these days? If so, can you let me see the prescription?"
Su Changan thought of Xia Fengxiang's medicinal food. He nodded and pointed to the small cabinets that were moved from the carriage and placed on the side.
Aunt Sun took out Xia Fengxiang's medicinal diet list from the drawer of the small cabinet according to Su Changan's instructions.
Zhang Wenjing took it respectfully from Aunt Sun, but just as she started, she immediately said, "Isn't this nonsense? Can this be eaten by you, the queen?!"
Su Changan was stunned for a moment, and immediately asked: "I can't eat?"
Zhang Wenjing immediately said, "It's not that you can't eat it. If you eat it at ordinary times, it doesn't matter, and it's also good for your body. But your Majesty is weak, and the Qi points in your body are different from those of ordinary people. And, your Majesty..."
Zhang Wenjing wanted to say that you are a man, but after thinking for a moment, she changed her words and said, "But this medicinal food is not suitable for you, Madam."
Su Changan blinked, his eyes sparkling, and immediately asked, "In other words, if I eat this now, it will actually be harmful to my body instead of helping it?"
Zhang Wenjing shook her head: "There is no benefit, it's just... not suitable for recuperation. Don't eat this thing anymore, never touch it again."
Su Changan narrowed his eyes, then immediately turned around and took out a pen and paper, looked at Zhang Wenjing and said, "Mr. Zhang, please continue to scold me, I will record it here. These things have caused me too much pain these days, please scold me more."
Both Zhang Wenjing and everyone in the yard were surprised by Su Changan's actions.
Zhang Wenjing, on the other hand, looked down at the prescription in her hand and said, "This prescription is indeed a good one, but your body is special, you shouldn't use it so carelessly. It's also bad to replenish your Yin energy too much."
After Su Changan was about to write it down, he asked, "The person who used this recipe told me to avoid certain foods and not to eat anything. I can only look at this hot pot!"
Su Changan felt more and more aggrieved as he spoke.
Everyone looked at Su Changan and felt strange.
Zhang Wenjing shook her head: "It is right to abstain from food. Her Majesty's five internal organs are weak. I think it was hurt when she was fighting with others. But she shouldn't eat nothing. She also needs to properly replenish her blood. Otherwise, how can her body be healthy? This is a stupid move. How can we be so irresponsible in dealing with the Empress!"
Although everyone was surprised by the Queen's behavior, after listening to Zhang Wenjing's words, they all understood that there was something wrong with the medicinal food the Queen had been eating these days, so they were a little angry.
Yu Kuangjian, Zhou Qianhong frowned, because wasn't this medicinal diet of the Empress made by His Majesty?
Aunt Sun frowned and said, "Mr. Zhang, these are not harmful to your health. Can you correct them now?"
Zhang Wenjing nodded: "It's harmless, but it's not good for your health. Instead, it will delay your recovery. Just stop eating it. I'll prepare a new medicated diet here. Three meals a day with three kinds of medicated diet, and add soup medicine to it."
Zhang Wenjing bowed to Su Changan and said, "Your Majesty is fine, you just need to rest and recuperate to recover. Your Majesty has strong Qi and energy. The reason why you look weak is because of the medicinal food, but more because of the internal injuries you suffered in the battle with Huang Chao. From today onwards, I will come to the palace every day to check your pulse. You will definitely recover in a few days, so please rest assured. With me here, I will not let these stupid moves disturb your recuperation."
At this point, Zhang Wenjing frowned and looked at Su Changan: "It's the white hair of your majesty. I am not a man of the world, so I really don't understand why it is like this. Please forgive me, majesty."
Su Changan said, "Old sir, you don't have to be like this. You have helped me a lot by finding out that there is something wrong with this medicinal food. But why don't you criticize this medicinal food again? Your criticism will be very authoritative, so that I can find trouble with that person."
Zhang Wenjing was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "You can't be presumptuous in front of the queen, and I don't want to mention it. However, I don't know who made this medicinal diet for the queen. If there is a famous doctor in the south, I know him. If he is an old acquaintance, I will definitely write a letter to scold him."
Su Changan quickly wrote down these words, and then said: "I don't know who the doctor is, but Xia Fengxiang has been forcing me to eat these for almost two months. I have suffered too much."
Everyone in the yard was startled because the name looked familiar.
Zhang Wenjing even said: "This summer"
But when it comes to this.
Everyone in the yard, including Zhang Wenjing, stared at Su Changan with wide eyes, and each one was more silent than the other.
Zhang Wenjing pursed her lips, seeming to want to say something but stopped herself.
Li Xingyue, who originally wanted to curse, covered her mouth and was glad that she didn't curse out loud, otherwise she would have been in big trouble.
Su Changan wrote the last sentence, "Look! You did it to me, just tell me if you have a crush on some pretty boy and want to kill me! You vicious woman! You'd better admit your mistake to me tonight, otherwise, humph!"
Then he folded the paper and handed it to Aunt Sun: "Aunt, please help me hand it to His Majesty personally."
Aunt Sun held the paper and looked at Su Changan, not knowing what to say. She sighed in her heart. These young couple have started again!
But while thinking this, Aunt Sun shook her head and smiled bitterly, feeling that it was still better this way.
After hearing Doctor Zhang say that the Empress was fine, Aunt Sun naturally breathed a sigh of relief. Plus, when the notes started to be passed around again, she couldn't help but think of the quarrelsome days of the young couple, and her heart warmed again.
But before Aunt Sun could say anything, Su Changan added, "If they stay up till very late, Aunt Sun, please ask the imperial kitchen to prepare some food and send it over to my grandfather and Lord Li. Please also ask His Majesty to prepare some soup. She will feel uncomfortable if she eats too much at night."
After saying that, he added: "Don't say I asked you to prepare it. She and I are still arguing right now!"
Aunt Sun didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but she still bowed and agreed.
Su Changan continued, "I'm going to see my mother now. Leave it here like this for now. If you're hungry, just eat it. There are things in there for you. Divide them among yourselves. I'm bored on the way, so I wrote some short plays and scripts. You can also read them."
Su Changan was talking to Xunxia and the others, and while speaking he pointed to some cloth bags over there.
Xun Xia and the others naturally bowed respectfully, each with a look of anticipation and joy on their faces.
Su Changan didn't say anything more and planned to go to the Su Mansion. After all, he had originally planned to go to the Su Mansion to report that Zhang Wenjing was safe after she arrived, and then visit his pregnant mother.
However, when he looked at Zhang Wenjing, he found that the old doctor looked worried. Su Changan immediately said, "Don't worry, Mr. Zhang. I'll protect you. Besides, if she did something wrong, what can she do to us?! So it's okay."
Zhang Wenjing listened, is this a question of whether to cover it or not?
Su Changan looked at Zhang Wenjing and said, "Mr. Zhang, everything is fine with my mother."
Su Liushi is already 38 years old. After all, it is ancient times, and pregnancy at this time is quite dangerous in all aspects.
Although Su Changan was happy for Su Liushi and Su Zimu, he was also a little worried when he thought about the dangers that older mothers would face.
This is also one of the main reasons why Su Changan wanted to go and see it in person as soon as he came back.
Zhou Qianhong already knew that she would be going to the Su Mansion soon, so the carriage was already prepared.
The only person accompanying them was Zhou Qianhong, but Shentu Kuyue wanted to go along. Although Su Changan didn't want to take her, he thought that she must be afraid of Aunt Yan, so she didn't dare to leave him for a moment, so he had to agree.
As for Yu Kuangjian, Su Changan asked Xuanxia and the others to help him settle down first.
After leaving the palace, Li Xingyue wanted to go back to the Palace Administration Office, so she left.
In fact, Su Changan still had some questions to ask Li Xingyue, because Su Changan knew that Li Jiulang seemed to be busy arranging blind dates for Li Xingyue recently, but Li Xingyue was very disgusted.
But Li Xingyue didn't look for me, and there was still a long time, so I wasn't in a hurry.
After sending Zhang Wenjing to the Imperial Medical Bureau, Su Changan and the others headed towards the Su Mansion.
In the capital, the news that the Empress and His Majesty had returned had actually begun to spread, but after all, it was short and had not yet spread completely.
