Chapter 186 The Fourth Prince and Xia Jingjing's Wedding
"Xiangxiang said your coat smelled too strong with perfume, it almost made her faint. It didn't have any manly qualities, and she told you to wear less perfume in the future," Xia Yue relayed in a deep voice.
In fact, Shen Xiangxiang's original words were even harsher; she also complained that the coat was ugly and had no aesthetic sense.
But to save face for Shang Zexi, Xia Yue ignored those words.
Shang Zexi felt really bad when he heard this.
He also dislikes the smell of perfume.
But this was something he found out when he was researching Shen Xiangxiang's information; he discovered that this perfume was Shen Xiangxiang's favorite.
In order to make Shen Xiangxiang like him as well as the fragrance, he sprayed almost half a bottle in one go, making his head hurt from the smell.
I never expected it to end like this.
"Sister-in-law, you're Xiangxiang's best friend, do you have any good ideas to help me?" Shang Zexi looked as aggrieved as a husky that had lost its bone.
When it comes to dating, Xia Yue stumbled upon it by accident; she had no talent or strategy for it.
Based on her own experience, she could only loudly advise, "Sincerity is always the ultimate weapon. Try to avoid doing these messy things in the future."
“Okay…” Shang Zexi lowered his head in disappointment.
Xia Yue put on the necklace, went to the Feng family's gate, and boarded the special carriage to the palace again.
Having been here several times already, Xia Yue was very familiar with the place, and the emperor was no longer so wary of her.
They would occasionally chat during treatment.
They might even complain about trivial things.
"I never imagined that you and Xia Jingjing were actually sisters, raised in the same family. Your dear sister insisted on having her wedding broadcast live to announce it to the world."
Royal weddings are always solemn and low-key, taking a secretive approach. But she's doing it anyway, getting pregnant and still not keeping quiet.
My fourth brother is so troubled by this matter that he's unable to work properly for me anymore.
The emperor of Country A is no longer as majestic as before, always aloof and superior.
He also reveals the seven emotions and six desires of an ordinary person.
At these times, Xia Yue would also chat for a few minutes to lower the emperor's guard.
"Marriage is the most important thing in a woman's life. Xia Jingjing has married into a wealthy family, so of course she wants to show off."
If His Majesty is willing to give her face, let her show off; if he is not willing to give her face, then give her a proper warning.
Although Xia Jingjing and I share the same surname, we are not related by blood at all. You don't need to spare her for my sake.
As Xia Yue spoke, she selected the herbal bath packs she would use today from the wall full of Chinese medicine boxes, and finally put them in a small cloth bag.
"From now on, Your Majesty may take a medicinal bath for one hour every day," Xia Yue said calmly.
The emperor nodded, but couldn't help asking, "Dr. X, when will I finally recover from this illness? I've been taking medicine for several days now, but it's not working at all."
"You've had this illness for thirty years. Do you really think you can cure it in just a few days?" Xia Yue calmly retorted.
The emperor thought about it and realized that it made sense, so he had no choice but to stop asking.
After all, he had consulted professionals about this medicine and even asked Gu Chen for advice. It was indeed a good medicine that could help improve male virility and restore vitality.
"Alright, I've finished treating you. I need to go treat that lady now. Take me there quickly." Xia Yue wanted to detoxify her mother as soon as possible.
The emperor accepted the medicine packet and looked at Xia Yue's face.
Whether it was a genuine exclamation or a tentative remark, she said, "Dr. X seems to be eager to go there lately. He's such a dedicated and good doctor. If all doctors in the world were like you, that would be wonderful."
Those who become emperors are no pushovers.
Xia Yue dared not reveal herself casually.
She said coldly, "I'm only doing this for His Majesty's high reward, to finish the work as soon as possible, and to get the rest of the gold. That's all."
"Is that so? Then please, divine physician, put in even more effort," the emperor replied with a half-smile.
Xia Yue nodded somewhat impatiently.
Then the emperor spoke up, "The necklace you're wearing today is quite nice, Divine Physician. You never used to wear any jewelry, why the sudden change in style?"
Sure enough, this damned emperor wasn't so easily fooled.
Xia Yue could only continue to explain with a straight face, "This is an anniversary gift from my husband, and he insisted that I wear it."
"I see." The emperor nodded.
I don't know if he no longer had any doubts, or if he was afraid that Xia Yue would become suspicious if he pursued the matter further.
In short, he finally got Xia Yue to treat Feng Yun.
Xia Yue wore a blindfold throughout the journey.
Although the camera on her necklace could transmit images of her surroundings back, she boarded a carriage midway through her journey, from which she could not see the outside world.
It seems we really need to find a way to bribe someone in the palace before we can proceed to the next step.
We arrived at the mysterious palace.
Xia Yue continued to treat her mother.
After several days of acupuncture, massage, and medication, one-tenth of the toxins in my mother's body have been removed.
Although the effect was not significant, it was still a huge improvement compared to the previous hopelessness.
Moreover, Xia Yue noticed that her mother's fingers would occasionally twitch.
It's not a muscle reaction, but a conscious movement.
Clearly, the mother was showing signs of waking up.
She also had to try her best to rescue her mother as soon as she woke up.
Otherwise, if the emperor discovers this, he will immediately move her away and discard her once she is no longer of any use.
Time flew by, and the day arrived for the wedding of the Fourth Prince Ansen and Xia Jingjing.
Although Xia Jingjing was a concubine, she still had a grand wedding ceremony due to the emperor's personal bestowal of the marriage.
