94 Lucky
◎I want to elope with you◎
Zhou Yanshu took out a hairpin, which seemed out of place with his austere temperament. "This is a token of my loyalty. I wonder if you, sir, would recognize it?"
This hairpin is made entirely of gold and inlaid with red coral. It is extremely valuable. Xue Ji is not often in the harem and is not familiar with it, so he is still extremely wary.
It would be fine if someone really had bad intentions at this time, but it would be terrible if someone took advantage of the situation and ended up destroying everyone.
Everyone rushed forward, no one knowing what the token was. Fortunately, Rong Pan recognized it immediately and led Zhou Yanshu to the bedside, calling out, "Yes, yes, sir, please come in!"
This person was none other than the childhood sweetheart that Tan Lu had mentioned before. This hairpin was a gift from the palace. She gave one to Zhou Yanshu and kept the other with her, often wearing it on her head. Therefore, she was deeply impressed by this hairpin.
But she only knew that the token was real, but she never knew who the childhood sweetheart that Tan Lu was talking about was.
Zhou Yanshu quickly walked to the bedside and was about to take Rong Qianyu's pulse, but was stopped by the vigilant Xue Ji.
He blocked the window and refused to move, holding his hand tightly with his right hand. Firstly, this person's origin was unknown, and secondly, he looked young. It was unclear whether he was really capable or just pretending to be mysterious.
After all, he had been full of expectations these days, but his hopes were dashed time and time again. Many doctors with decades of experience were unable to help, so how could he, a young man in his early twenties, cure it?
Zhou Yanshu was a very well-mannered person. Seeing that Xue Ji still had doubts about him, he took a step back, bowed deeply again, and said, "Your Majesty probably can't take medicine now. The high fever persists. It's better during the day, but her hands and feet are cold, and hot at night. It seems like you haven't slept for three or five days. My family has been practicing medicine for generations, and we have some reputation in the capital. After I leave, you might as well ask around so that you can feel at ease."
The symptoms he described were all correct. Rong Qianyu's hands and feet were cold during the day, and she started to have a fever at night.
Xue Ji stopped his hand and paused for a moment, looking him up and down again. Seeing that he was sincere, he let go of his hand and allowed him to treat Rong Qianyu.
"Sir, you're too kind! If you can cure her, I'd give you my entire fortune. I'd be so grateful!"
Zhou Yanshu smiled warmly, "Your Excellency, there is no need to say such words. I am only trying to do my best to help you. I will give you acupuncture and prescribe medicine."
After saying that, he opened the medicine box, took out a long needle and gave her acupuncture.
A stringy, thin pulse with no stretch and a variable tongue coating indicate frequent mood swings and insomnia. External invasion of dampness may result in a slippery, astringent, and weak pulse, a greasy white coating, and a feeling of aversion to cold and dampness.
If you have emotional imbalance, you should regulate your emotions, soothe your mind, remove dampness and cold, warm and replenish Yang Qi, so as to eliminate pathogenic factors.
Everything Zhou Yanshu said was right. Although the current condition has been cured, there is still the mental illness that needs to be slowly healed.
"Your Majesty has a multitude of ailments all stacked together. Worry, anxiety, and impatience are compounded by your frail body, and kneeling in the snow has injured it. While it's not fatal, it will take time to heal. Your Majesty will have a high fever again tonight. Please give your Majesty the prescription I gave you. The fever will subside in two or three days."
Rong Qianyu had been ill for four or five days and no doctor had been able to cure her, but he gave her a little acupuncture and she was cured.
The operation was over before Xue Ji had a chance to see it. He had some knowledge of medicine, and seeing that the acupuncture points he had inserted were all correct, he was no longer so worried.
This solved his urgent problem. Xue Ji burst into tears. It was the first time that a dignified seal holder was so polite to a commoner.
She held his hand and kept thanking him, "Thank you, thank you!"
Zhou Yanshu was a cautious person. Curing illnesses and saving lives was his bounden duty. He was accustomed to Xue Ji's tearful gratitude. However, since he was entrusted by someone, although he did not like to make friends with officials, he politely bowed in return.
He also gave special instructions: "Your Majesty is in poor health. You must stay calm and eat light food in the future. Don't get cold or suffer from any hardship. Take good care of yourself for a few months without slacking off."
"I am grateful for your kindness. If you need anything in the future, Xue Ji will do his best to help you." This is the deepest gratitude Xue Ji can express.
He used to be the seal holder, in a high position with great power and indifferent to human feelings. Everything around him was not very pleasant to him. One day, by chance, a thin figure came into his sight.
The warmth that had disappeared for a long time was gradually recovered, and the pure, simple, human feelings that belonged to him came back. When he saw the blooming flowers in the mountains and the white snow and red plums, he would want to live in a quiet corner with her.
This kind of feeling supported him to become strong. He used to be a man without feelings, but now Rong Qianyu is his first priority. For her, he would do anything, even if it means spending all his family wealth.
As long as it's for Rong Qianyu, he can do it.
Zhou Yanshu was dressed in plain clothes. Although his clothes were simple, they could not hide his elegant demeanor. "I do have a wish that I haven't fulfilled, but I'm afraid that you, my Lord, are too far away to fulfill it."
He was entrusted with a task and didn't need anything else.
After Zhou Yanshu left, Xue Ji drove everyone away and took care of Rong Qianyu alone at night. As expected, her fever had worsened over the past two days, but she felt much better during the day and could even take the medicine.
On the third night, Xue Ji wiped Rong Qianyu's hands as usual. When he had nothing to do, he brought a small stool, sat beside the bed, held her hand and whispered to himself.
"When will you wake up?"
"Don't be so stubborn next time, okay? You don't tell me anything. Do you want to scare me to death?"
The other party didn't respond, so he continued to wipe her arm, complaining as he did so: "I am the seal master, when have I ever done such things? I have been your servant for so long, how are you going to repay me when you wake up?"
He gently touched her face and looked at her, then whispered in her ear, "Wait until spring comes, and take good care of yourself."
At night, the two slept on the same bed. Xue Ji held her in his arms, buried himself in her fluffy hair, greedily inhaling her scent.
"Qian'er, Qian'er?" He said in a deep voice, his tone choked with sobs, and hugged her tighter, "Wake up."
The sounds around her gradually became clearer. Rong Qianyu's eyelids moved, and her eyes gradually became clearer. The moonlight fell on the bed, and she could see Xue Ji when she turned around.
She had been lying in bed for so long that her body was inevitably a little stiff. She took a long time to adjust to her body and said in a hoarse voice, "Ji...Jiming?"
"Qian'er!" Xue Ji was overjoyed when he heard the voice and excitedly held her hand.
As she spoke, her voice began to sob, her lips trembled slightly, the end of her words shook, her eyes turned red, her vision blurred instantly, and strings of tears welled up and slid down her cheeks to the corner of her mouth.
Xue Ji held her hand tightly and kissed it, "I'm here, I'm here!"
Rong Qianyu had never seen him so distraught. His eyes were red and his mouth was turned down, making him look aggrieved.
Her face was covered with tear marks, and I don’t know how long she had endured the exhaustion.
"I'm thirsty..." she said.
"I'll pour you some water!"
"I want some tea..."
"Okay, okay, have some tea!"
He moved quickly, got out of bed to pour her some tea, and then slowly helped her up, but his breath was choked with sobs of joy.
After helping her drink the water, Xue Ji laid her down and coaxed her to sleep, patting her back gently. "Go to sleep, we'll talk tomorrow morning."
The next morning, it was snowing and the red plum blossoms outside the house turned white overnight. Xue Ji looked at the person lying peacefully in his arms, and he always felt a kind of joy of surviving a disaster.
She was lucky enough to escape death this time, but Fu Hua framed her to death, and the queen of a country suffered such a great humiliation.
Xue Ji's power comes from the emperor and he is dependent on the emperor, but the feud has already been formed, and from now on he will make Fu Hua taste this heart-wrenching pain.
But he couldn't tell Rong Qianyu right now. She had just recovered from a serious illness and couldn't get angry anymore.
Looking at the face sleeping soundly on the bed, he looked down at his clothes. He hadn't changed his clothes for four or five days, so he stood up and wanted to change.
"Don't go, don't go." Xue Ji was grabbed by Rong Qianyu as soon as he stood up.
"I'm going to change my clothes."
Rong Qianyu softly took his hand and shook it, "I want to hold you and sleep for a while."
"this……"
Xue Ji was a little hesitant. He had been wearing this piece of clothing for too long. Fortunately, it was winter and he didn't sweat, otherwise he would have been unable to bear it.
But he couldn't stand her calling his name in a coquettish voice, "Jiming...Xue Lang..."
Xue Ji was addicted to the sweet and soft voice of Doctor Xue. Beauty is the greatest thing in the world, let alone such a delicate beauty lying on the bed with a sick look.
"Okay." He lifted the quilt and lay back on the bed.
Rong Qianyu's profile was pressed against his chest, and he stretched out his slender arms to hug her neck. All the grievances of the past finally found a place to rest at this moment.
Xue Ji raised his eyebrows slightly, and with a wicked smile, he held her in his arms with an attitude of complete possession. He held her tightly, ignoring her tired body that had just recovered from a serious illness, and greedily clung to every inch of her beauty.
"Let's go out for a walk in a couple of days. You've been sick for a long time, it's time to go out for a walk."
"Okay." She nodded in agreement.
"tax……"
"Cancelled." Xue Ji rubbed his brows, and with a smile and a hint of anger, he put his arm around her waist, holding her tightly against his chest. "If you do this again next time, I'll break your legs!"
"No."
"What are you thinking about?" Xue Ji asked.
Rong Qianyu seemed to be thinking about something, "I want to elope with you."
Xue Ji touched her face and said with a smile, "Do you dare?"
Rong Qianyu's hand slid down Xue Ji's collar and slowly reached inside. "Dare, Master Seal Holder, do you dare?"
Xue Ji lay lazily, letting the other person grope him. "I dare not. My lifelong pursuit is to get promoted and make money. How can I support you without an official position?"
"The one who holds the seal and supports the queen?" she asked.
"You're the queen, and you still want me to sleep with you?"
Rong Qianyu continued to touch down, and this time Xue Ji fully cooperated, "You and I are in cahoots, we are the same."
He hugged her tightly and kissed her hard on the forehead, "Yes, we are the same."
It was rare for the two of them to be so leisurely. They hugged each other and did nothing but snuggle. After another half an hour, Xue Ji finally stood up and said, "Shall I go call them in?"
Rong Qianyu put on her coat and nodded in agreement.
The door opened, and Rong Pan, Qing Yun, and Yuan Qing were waiting outside. They knew that the two masters were enjoying a reunion after a short separation. Although they couldn't do anything practical, they didn't have the heart to disturb them after all, as they had just survived a disaster and recovered from a serious illness.
When Rong Pan saw Rong Qianyu finally woke up, she threw herself on the bed and burst into tears, "Princess, you're finally awake! I was so worried!"
Qingyun also said, "Your Majesty, you are finally awake. My master has been staying home these past few days and has lost a lot of weight!"
"Shut up!" Xue Ji winked at him, telling him to shut up.
Qingyun muttered to himself with a look of grievance: "What I said is true."
Everyone was in a peaceful mood, happy that Rong Qianyu had woken up. Only Yuanqing stood in the distance and didn't dare to come forward.
"Yuanqing?"
Yuan Qing lowered her eyes, slowly raised her head, and knelt down. "I am grateful to Your Majesty for your kindness. I will follow Your Majesty sincerely. I will follow Your Majesty's lead in the future and will never regret it even if I die! Please don't drive me away!"
Rong Qianyu helped Yuanqing up and patted her. The master and servant had a deep affection for each other, so there was no need to say more.
"I have suffered this humiliation today and narrowly escaped death. One day, I will make him pay back a hundredfold."
"What does your Majesty plan?" Rong Pan asked.
Fu Hua has now fallen out with her and this time he wants her dead. Anyway, she needs to recuperate now, so there is no rush.
Rong Qianyu wanted to be a good wife, a virtuous queen, and a loving mother, but he still wanted to kill her. There was more than just Cui Rumei between them.
"If I continue to tolerate him, he will only become more powerful. If I can help him secure the throne, then I can also pull him down. I will no longer be controlled by others!"
Qingyun was horrified when he heard this and immediately made a gesture to keep quiet, "Your Majesty, you can't say that!"
Rong Qianyu tilted her head to look at him and said to him, "You are a gentleman, but I've had enough of being a gentleman."
