The Empress paused for a moment, as if she had realized something.
She hurriedly smoothed her hair with her hands, her fingertips just brushing against her cheek.
Emperor Yuanwu carried Mu Qianqian in.
"Your Majesty..." The Empress's gaze froze the moment it fell on Mu Qianqian.
It was only for a very brief second.
She quickly regained her composure, and a perfectly timed smile appeared on her lips: "Isn't Your Majesty busy today? How come you have time to come over?"
"I heard you weren't feeling well, so I came to see you." After saying this, Emperor Yuanwu looked the Empress up and down: "How are you feeling now? Is there anything else that's bothering you?"
The Empress unconsciously touched her cheek: "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I am fine."
"His complexion does look bad," Emperor Yuanwu remarked. "Where are the imperial physicians?"
He heard Emperor Yuanwu's summons.
Physician Li hurriedly walked in from outside and knelt on the ground.
"Your Majesty," the Empress said hastily, fearing that Emperor Yuanwu would really reprimand the imperial physician. "The imperial physician has been taking great care of me, but my health is failing me, and I just can't seem to get better."
"Since the medicine isn't working, let the Imperial Observatory come and take a look to see if there's any adverse reaction," Emperor Yuanwu said sullenly.
Mu Qianqian nestled in Emperor Yuanwu's arms, her bright, sparkling eyes darting around.
I never imagined my dad was so superstitious.
If the Imperial Observatory were truly useful, I fear the imperial physicians of the Imperial Medical Academy would all be out of a job.
【Harmful!】
It turns out that when people are desperate, they often resort to unorthodox methods.
The Empress's illness stems from her heart.
[It's all because of the eldest prince.]
[Instead of having the Imperial Observatory examine the constellations, it would be more effective to have the Empress burn incense and pray to Buddha; a calm and peaceful mind would be far more beneficial.]
Emperor Yuanwu heard Mu Qianqian's incessant chatter.
The Empress fell seriously ill because she was angered by Mu Junyao.
Has the eldest prince done anything outrageous lately?
There have been many matters to attend to in the central government recently.
It seems he hasn't visited the princes' quarters to check their studies in a long time.
However, he felt that Mu Qianqian's words made a lot of sense.
"Why don't we have Master Wuyu come over and chant sutras to bless you? You can't stay sick like this forever," Emperor Yuanwu said sullenly.
The Empress's eyes widened in surprise: "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty."
Master of No Desire?
Master Wuyu of Huguo Temple?
Was it the time when Consort Shu personally went to Huguo Temple to visit that Master Wuyu?
I think about this all the time.
The Empress felt as if a stone was lodged in her heart.
Since ancient times.
The empress always went to Huguo Temple to pray for blessings.
This Consort Shu relied on Emperor Yuanwu's favor towards the Seventh Princess.
They actually made a big fuss about Mu Qianqian's full moon celebration.
One of the concubines went to Huguo Temple and stayed there for several days.
It was said to be a prayer for blessings.
Who knows what she's really up to?
I'm afraid she just wants to attract attention elsewhere.
Let others think that the Yuan Kingdom's harem is hers alone, that she is the true empress.
The smile on the Empress's face cracked inch by inch.
But this is for the best.
This time, Master Wuyu came.
She wanted Master Wuyu and the entire Huguo Temple to know.
Who is the real empress?
Since the Emperor likes this Seventh Princess so much...
It seems she's going to make a big deal out of this seventh princess.
"This must be Qianqian. She's so pretty and cute, just like Consort Shu." The Empress reached out and pinched Mu Qianqian's cheek.
Although she smiled kindly and gently.
The hand that landed on Mu Qianqian's cheek subtly increased its pressure.
