Chapter 84 I shouldn't have done it, I deserved it

Cheng Jin muttered quietly in her heart.

[I'm not saying that it's a pity that you don't go to the brainstorm with your memory. ]

However, seeing that Wei An was determined to get to the bottom of it, I was afraid that if Cheng Jin didn't answer, she would have to prepare a new prescription.

Cheng Jin nodded immediately and answered Wei An.

"Let it go, let it go. I saw you put it in with my own eyes, there can't be any mistake."

Cheng Jin didn't know which eye she saw it with, anyway, the sambar root was still hidden in her sleeve at this moment.

Wei An didn't dare to believe it, and took out another sambar root, "But I remember that I didn't put it in."

As he was about to put the herbs into the medicine jar, Cheng Jin immediately pressed the lid of the medicine jar.

"No, I clearly remember that it was Eunuch Wei who put it there himself. If he puts another one there now, wouldn't it be the same as yesterday? Wouldn't that make the Emperor unhappy?"

"If the Emperor says he doesn't want to take it again and delays his health, who can afford it?"

"Besides, when boiling the medicine, how can you open the medicine pot several times? What if it affects the efficacy?"

Wei An hesitated after hearing what Cheng Jin said.

He saw clearly that Cheng Jin didn't put it there at all.

Not to mention himself, he had memorized those herbs by heart, and he knew exactly which one was missing.

But now Cheng Jin was determined not to let him check. If the efficacy of the medicine was really affected by the lack of the shamu root, he really couldn't afford it.

Yesterday, because he believed Cheng Jin's words, he was happy early and did that kind of thing that made Chu Chengye unhappy. If something happens again today, he is afraid that his life will be in danger, and even Cheng Jin will not be able to escape the blame.

Then he must check it out.

Coincidentally, Chu Chengye just waved to let him go, and Wei An confirmed with Cheng Jin again, "Madam, you just saw the slave release it with your own eyes, right?"

Cheng Jin touched her nose, her eyes were uncertain, "Ah, I released it."

After Wei An left, Cheng Jin stayed by the medicine jar alone.

She was afraid that Wei An would come to open the medicine jar to check for something, so she didn't dare to leave.

When the medicine was boiling, according to the estimation in the past, there was already a strange smell in Jingyang Palace, but today, without the sandwood root, there was only the fragrance of medicinal materials.

Chu Chengye got it for free.

If she hadn't been afraid that he would get angry and stop taking the medicine and really die, Cheng Jin would never have helped Chu Chengye find a solution.

Just thank me.

The time for decocting the medicine was long. Cheng Jin sat beside the medicine pot and was so bored that she counted the ants on the ground. Suddenly, a figure blocked the light above her head.

Cheng Jin looked up and saw Chu Chengye standing in front of Cheng Jin, looking down at Cheng Jin.

He seemed to have noticed the changes in the medicine. He came to check because there was no strange smell today.

When Chu Chengye came over, he saw Cheng Jin lowering his head and drawing something on the ground with a branch. He kept muttering to himself. He sat on a chair with his back hunched. His originally small figure shrank into a ball and became a tiny one.

Because of the cold winter wind, Cheng Jin wrapped herself tightly in a jade-white soft satin cloak with gold weave.

When she looked up at him, the tip of her nose had been slightly reddened by the frost, and her eyes were still dazed, like an ignorant little beast.

Seeing Cheng Jin's often tense expression, Chu Chengye also learned to soften it, "Why are you sitting outside?"

Cheng Jin poked her head to look at Wei An, who was in the room just now, but he was gone now. No one knew where Cheng Jin had sent him.

But looking at Chu Chengye in front of her, Cheng Jin did not forget to take credit.

She raised her face and smiled at Chu Chengye eagerly, "It's just that I am concerned about the emperor's medicine, so I dare not leave for a moment. I can only feel at ease if I see him all the time."

Chu Chengye curled the corners of his mouth and looked at Cheng Jin.

Seeing that Chu Chengye had no intention of saying anything, Cheng Jin immediately added a sentence.

"I don't think it's hard to do something for the emperor in this cold winter."

She had hinted so clearly, but Chu Chengye still kept his composure and didn't say a word, but the smile on his face deepened.

[Don't just laugh, tyrant, open your mouth and throw gold coins! ]

Cheng Jin was anxious, and tentatively said, "Your Majesty, don't feel sorry for me. It's my duty to do all this for the emperor."

[I don't deserve it, I deserve it. ]

Chu Chengye finally spoke, raised his hand and held Cheng Jin's wrist, "It's really hard for Concubine Rong to read medicine for me. This hand is cold when I hold it."

Cheng Jin's eyes were shining.

[It doesn't matter if it's cold or not. ]

[Just look at my wrist. Is there any big gold bracelet or big jade bracelet on it?

Chu Chengye suddenly let go of Cheng Jin's hand, "But since it's Cheng Jin's good intention, I won't say anything more."

"Concubine Rong served this medicine for me, I'm happy to drink it, I'm not going to let Concubine Rong down." After

saying that, he turned around and walked into the house with his hands behind his back.

Cheng Jin: "???"

[Is that the end?]

[I was just being polite to you, why did you take it seriously?]

Seeing that Chu Chengye didn't look like he was joking, Cheng Jin could only serve the medicine to Chu Chengye first. When she handed it to Chu Chengye, she couldn't help but roll her eyes.

[Drink it, drink it, who can drink more than you?]

Chu Chengye had already noticed that today's soup smelled different, and those strange smells had all disappeared. If Cheng Jin hadn't personally delivered it to him, he would have suspected that the soup had been replaced.

Chu Chengye raised his head and drank it all in one gulp. Only the bitter taste of the medicinal herbs remained in his mouth. It was much better without those strange tastes, but the medicine was still bitter. Chu Chengye couldn't help but

frown after drinking

it. Cheng Jin saw that Chu Chengye looked unhappy again after drinking the medicine. She knew it was because of the bitterness.

She immediately raised her hand and stuffed the perilla plum she had prepared into Chu Chengye's mouth.

Cheng Jin was afraid that Chu Chengye would say that he would not drink it again because of the bitterness of the medicine. If the medicine was bitter, even the king of heaven would come and there would be nothing he could do.

But Cheng Jin had expected it. If you can't drink bitter food, just eat something sweet. Anyway, she was coaxed to take medicine like this when she was a child.

The sweet and sour taste went down her throat, and soon the previous bitterness was suppressed.

Cheng Jin tilted her head to look at Chu Chengye's expression, "The medicine is too bitter, eat something sweet to suppress it, and you will get better soon."

"Your Majesty can't refuse to take the medicine just because it's bitter. Only by taking the medicine can your body get better."

With the tone of coaxing a child, Chu Chengye felt a little awkward, and his thoughts were touched again. Chu Chengye's ears blushed.

He avoided Cheng Jin's gaze, pretended to be calm, and laughed from his throat, "What a joke, I am the king of a country, how can I be afraid of hardship?"

"But you, you are so brave, you dare to feed me without my permission, aren't you afraid that I will punish you?"

Cheng Jin sighed. Although Chu Chengye's tone was threatening, he didn't sound angry at all. Instead, he was as panicked as a cat whose tail was stepped on.

It sounded that he had no intimidation at all, but rather shy.

[He started to put on his emperor airs again. ]
