Physician Wang trembled with fright.
His raised fingertips stopped an inch from the Empress's wrist.
He was stunned for a long time and couldn't figure out what was wrong.
After all, when his master was taking the pulses of the various concubines, he could only wait outside.
He had been in the palace for nearly ten years.
This was also the first time he had seen the Empress up close.
Does this mean that one must kneel and bow deeply before taking the Empress's pulse?
Physician Wang quickly withdrew his hand, his face showing a devout expression of "I understand."
He placed his hands on his head, knelt down, and kowtowed deeply to the Empress.
"Long live the Empress! Long live the Empress!"
The empress with her eyes closed.
Hearing his greeting, she suddenly opened her eyes.
She turned her head to look at him in surprise.
Lan Xi, standing to the side, was also dumbfounded.
The imperial physician Wang noticed the astonished looks on their faces.
He thought it was because he hadn't said enough when he greeted her.
He then kowtowed again, saying, "Greetings, Your Majesty! This servant greets Your Majesty."
Empress: ? ? ?
Lan Xi: ……
Lan Xi finally understood.
She just said he was ill-mannered, referring to how he could place his hand directly on the Empress's hand when taking her pulse.
It wasn't about making him pay his respects to the Empress.
Lan Xi looked at the sky in despair.
However, the empress was even more desperate than her at this moment.
Is Emperor Yuanwu really that annoyed with her?
Leaving behind a physician with poor medical skills is one thing.
At least keep one bright person.
What exactly is this thing?
The empress suddenly had a surge of courage, realizing she could live for two more years without taking medicine.
This Imperial Physician Wang has the potential to send her away in a heartbeat.
The Empress waved her hand, signaling him to leave.
The imperial physician looked completely bewildered: "This... Your Majesty, aren't you going to take my pulse?"
The queen turned over in annoyance, leaving him with her back turned.
"Imperial Physician Wang, Her Majesty the Empress wants to rest. Why don't you go and prepare the medicine for lunch according to the prescription written by Imperial Physician Li this morning?" Lan Xi said helplessly.
Physician Wang was taken aback for a moment, then nodded repeatedly.
That's right!
His master's medicine will do the trick.
There's really no need for him to take the pulse himself anymore.
He's really no good.
Emperor Yuanwu took Mu Qianqian back to Qiluan Garden.
Upon seeing Consort Shu, Mu Qianqian immediately threw herself into her arms.
Seeing her unusual behavior, Consort Shu asked with concern, "What's wrong? Were you unhappy when you went out? Were you bullied?"
A rare hint of embarrassment appeared on Emperor Yuanwu's face.
Mu Qianqian rubbed against Consort Shu's neck for a while before finally raising her head.
She glanced at Emperor Yuanwu, pointed to her cheek, and began to whine and coo at Consort Shu.
"Oh." Consort Shu nodded in agreement, "Let Mother Consort take a look, what's wrong?"
Sure enough, there was a clear finger mark where Mu Qianqian pointed.
"What happened?"
Consort Shu's face darkened instantly; she didn't care about rules at all.
It was simply a mother's instinctive reaction when she saw her daughter being bullied outside.
"Who on earth did this to Qianqian?"
"Don't worry, Qianqian, your mother will definitely help you get revenge!"
Mu Qianqian realized that someone was backing her up.
His back was straighter than usual.
She turned her head accusingly and pointed at Emperor Yuanwu: "Ah... um... ahh!"
Consort Shu: ...
Those two red finger marks, could they have been made by Emperor Yuanwu?
Consort Shu: Uh...
All right!
She admitted that she had spoken a little too loudly.
