Chapter 36 She Wants to Haunt Him for the Rest of Her Life
On the second day after returning to the palace, Yueli heard that He Yanchen did not attend the morning court.
She remembered that he had not been in good condition on the fifteenth day, and had not had a good rest since then. Even last night he was in Fengyang Palace to find out for her why the foal was frightened.
Yueli suddenly felt distressed.
As soon as she received the news, she hurried to Linde Hall.
Ji Ming was guarding outside the palace. When he saw Yue Li, he hurried over to greet her: "Your servant greets Yu Ronghua."
"Eunuch, how is His Majesty? Is he feeling unwell?"
"The Imperial Physician came to check your pulse this morning. Your Majesty hasn't had enough rest and has a slight fever." Yue Li was by He Yanchen's side when he fell ill that day, so Ji Ming didn't hide it from her. "After the fifteenth, Your Majesty should have rested for two days..."
Yueli thought that if she had not gotten lost in the mountains, none of this would have happened.
"The medicine is being boiled in the small kitchen. I have to go and watch it. Yu Ronghua, please go in." Ji Ming opened the door of the palace for her with a smile on his face.
There was a faint smell of medicinal herbs in the hall, mixed with the crisp scent of ambergris. He Yanchen was only wearing pajamas, leaning against the soft pillow at the head of the bed with a memorial in his hand, flipping through it casually.
"Your Majesty is ill, how can he still read the memorials?" Yue Li walked over and took the memorial from his hand.
Yueli complained in her heart that he didn't watch it when she usually asked him to.
He Yanchen leaned back and glanced at her: "What time is it?"
Yueli glanced at the hourglass in the corner: "It's the end of the Si hour."
"How far is my Linde Palace from your Zhuoyu Palace?" The man slowly hooked the jade belt around her waist. "It's already so late, and you just remembered to come here?"
Yue Li blinked guiltily, knowing he was blaming her for being late. "I woke up late this morning, but as soon as I heard Your Majesty was ill, I came right away. I wasn't delayed at all."
She expertly hugged the man's waist and said coquettishly, "Your Majesty left suddenly last night. I was so worried, wondering if I had upset Your Majesty in some way. That's why I stayed up late."
"Oh? Have you figured it out yet?"
Yueli choked and felt even more guilty.
She hurriedly changed the subject and reached out to touch the man's forehead: "Your Majesty, are you having a fever? My hand is very cold. Will this make Your Majesty feel better?"
Yue Libing's cool palm stroked his hot forehead, and He Yanchen really felt comfortable.
She had a cold body, and holding her was like holding a small ice container in the summer, which was more effective than taking medicine.
Yueli leaned on his shoulder, smelling the man's scent, and she felt very safe.
Ever since he found her in the mountains, Yue Li felt that He Yanchen's position in her heart had risen to a higher level.
Not only did he save her in her previous life, he also saved her in this life. He would not abandon her like those people.
How can there be such a nice person.
She will cling to him forever.
The two hugged each other, and the hall became quiet for a while.
After a while, He Yanchen suddenly asked, "Have you gone to see Shen Zhaoyi?"
Yue Li shook her head: "When I heard that His Majesty was ill, I came here immediately. How could I have time to see Shen Zhaoyi? I only sent a thank-you gift."
There was a hint of smile on He Yanchen's lips. She was considered sensible.
"What did you give?"
Yueli thought for a moment and said, "These were all prepared by Lianqiao. I didn't know about them. I just put a few pieces of silk that I embroidered here."
"Jiaojiao is really thoughtful."
Yueli looked at him with her almond-shaped eyes: "But this is etiquette. If I don't send it off, won't people think I'm impolite?"
The joy in He Yanchen's eyes faded slightly, and he tapped her on the forehead: "You little heartless girl."
"How could I be so heartless? In this palace, I am the only one who cares the most about Your Majesty. No one else has come."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Ming's voice was heard outside: "Your Majesty, the Queen requests an audience."
Yue Li's arms around the man's waist suddenly tightened. She looked up at him and asked, "Is the Empress here to tend to His Majesty's illness?"
He Yanchen did not miss the sense of crisis in her eyes. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Maybe."
"Your Majesty, can't you let me take care of you alone?" Yue Li just wanted to be alone with him, and she acted coquettishly and pitifully.
He Yanchen smiled: "This is the rule. If I don't let the Queen in, won't people say I don't follow the rules?"
When the emperor is sick, the concubines have to take care of him. This is the rule in the palace.
The moment the queen came in, Yue Li reluctantly came out of He Yanchen's arms.
She stood beside the bed and bowed to the queen.
The queen frowned slightly. What were the two of them doing just now?
A hint of disapproval flashed in her eyes, and she stepped forward and saluted twice: "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."
He Yanchen shouted.
"I just met with Court Judge Xiao, who said Your Majesty needed rest after traveling so long. I felt that too many people would disturb Your Majesty, so I didn't send other sisters to attend to him. I beg Your Majesty's forgiveness."
"It's okay, the Queen is thoughtful."
When Yueli saw the two talking, she clenched the handkerchief in her hand and didn't want to listen at all.
She said in a muffled voice: "I'll go and see if the medicine is ready."
He Yanchen looked at her fleeing back and smiled.
After lingering in the small kitchen for a long time, Yue Li really didn't want to see He Yanchen interacting with someone else, especially since that person was the queen, his legitimate wife.
When she entered the palace again with the medicine bowl, she heard the queen saying bad things about her:
"Your Majesty, Yu Ronghua has only been in the palace for a short time. I'm afraid she doesn't quite understand the etiquette of attending to the sick. How about I let her go back first?"
Yueli clenched the tray in her hand and stopped.
"Forgive me for saying so much, Your Majesty should rest and recuperate instead of letting Yu Ronghua mess around. Yu Ronghua has a bad temper and I'm afraid it will affect Your Majesty's rest."
He Yanchen was impatient to listen to the queen's chatter, but when he opened his eyelids, he saw Yueli's figure outside the screen.
After a stray kitten is picked up, it is easy for it to become complacent and think that everything it gets is its due. Occasionally, it needs a little stimulation to make it feel a sense of crisis.
He opened his thin lips and said, "It's up to the Queen to arrange it."
Yueli bit her lip.
He Yanchen's only shortcoming is that he doesn't belong to her alone.
Yue Li could clearly realize that her feelings towards He Yanchen were gradually changing. In her previous life, she only liked his power and status, but now, she also liked him as a person.
And to like a person is to possess him.
She couldn't control her own emotions, but she could control everyone around He Yanchen to disappear!
Yueli stood outside the screen, her expression gradually becoming gloomier.
Finally, she asked Ji Ming to bring the medicine in.
As Yueli walked out of the palace, Lianqiao noticed that she looked unwell and asked worriedly, "Master, what's wrong with you?"
Yueli took a deep breath and said, "Go to the imperial kitchen and bring me some croton seeds."
Lian Qiao: “Ah?”
Yueli frowned impatiently: "Just that little Xia Zi from last time, let him give it to you. It's not the first time he did it anyway."
