Chapter 925: He didn't fall asleep, he was clearly angry and fainted
Hearing this, Dehai could hardly hold back the smile on his face.
Everyone in the palace knows that His Majesty loves to take care of flowers and plants, and among all the flowers, peonies are often the most popular.
Princess Huayang specially sent someone to deliver a pot of peonies with their heads cut off. Isn't this a metaphor for the fact that he, the king of a country, is about to fall?
How could he dare let His Majesty see such a thing?
Not to mention that he is still sick now, even if he was in good health before, he would have been very angry if he suddenly saw such an unlucky thing according to His Majesty's temper.
She is His Majesty's only sister, how could she be so cruel?
Thinking of the past when the two siblings shared a bowl of lotus seed soup when they were young, Dehai couldn't help but feel sad. He wiped his eyes and said, "It's hard for the princess to miss your majesty. I'll go in and see if your majesty is awake."
As soon as the voice fell, Song Yanxi lifted the curtain and came out, "His Majesty has gone to bed. If Miss Yunque has anything to give to you, I will pass it on to His Majesty."
"No need." Yunque smiled, but his words left no room for negotiation.
"My princess sympathizes with Princess Yong'an's hard work in caring for His Majesty, and has specially ordered the imperial kitchen to prepare a table of nutritious meals. I hope Princess will do me the honor."
Song Yanxi said in a distant tone, "Please tell Her Royal Highness the Princess that I have just finished my meal. I appreciate Her Royal Highness's kindness."
Yun Que's face darkened. "Did the princess really want this servant to convey the truth?"
Song Yanxi: "Thank you, young lady."
Yunque snorted coldly and left with a flick of his sleeves.
The palace maid carrying the potted plant hurried to catch up, but was stopped by Song Yanxi.
"This peony is in full bloom, and it's a gift from Her Royal Highness the Princess. Your Majesty would surely be delighted if he saw it."
Skylark turned around and stared at her with burning eyes.
This Princess Yong'an didn't want it at first but wants it now. What's she up to?
Meeting her suspicious eyes, Song Yanxi said in a businesslike manner, "Anything sent to His Majesty's bedroom must be inspected by me to ensure that it is harmless to His Majesty's health before it can be sent in.
Princess Huayang's love for her brother should not be misunderstood."
Yun Que's face suddenly darkened. "Does Princess Yong'an know what she's talking about?"
Song Yanxi straightened her back and said calmly, "Your Majesty, I have been ordered to take care of your health. Your Majesty's health is paramount, and I dare not be careless in the slightest."
After hearing this, Yun Que had no choice but to agree no matter how reluctant he was.
Otherwise, there is no hope for the dragon's health.
She was Princess Huayang's person, and her every word and action represented the attitude of her master. Naturally, she didn't dare to give others a chance to criticize her in such matters.
In private, they can do whatever they want.
But on the surface, Princess Huayang is still Emperor Xuande's only sister and the person closest to him in this world.
Anyone can harm him and plot against his throne, except Mo Daiqiu.
Not only would she not do that, she would also help him stabilize the court and guard the harem while he was seriously ill.
Even after his death, he would work hard to support his most beloved son to inherit the throne.
As a younger sister, isn't this enough?
As for whether Mo Jinchuan can sit firmly on the throne in the future and whether he is in good health, it is not her aunt's fault.
What Princess Huayang wants is the will of heaven and the will of the people.
So before this, she would never let anyone know that she had the intention of becoming the empress.
Yunque has been with her the longest, so naturally he knows her thoughts best.
She said almost without hesitation, "Carry it over here and let Princess Yong'an examine it."
The two palace maids did not dare to delay any longer and grunted as they carried the potted plant to Song Yanxi.
Because Emperor Xuande loved it, the gardeners in the palace took great care of it. Even though the most blooming flower at the top was cut off and lost its luster, the whole peony still looked elegant and luxurious.
Song Yanxi perfunctorily examined the two flower buds and said calmly, "Send them in."
Yun Que frowned, "My lord, have you finished checking it?"
Song Yanxi raised her eyes and looked at her, pretending she was a little surprised and said, "Princess Huayang is your Majesty's sister. When she heard that your Majesty was ill, she copied scriptures and chanted Buddhist scriptures every day to pray for your Majesty.
She is so worried about Your Majesty that she must have personally checked the items she sent, so there will naturally be no mistakes."
Listening to her sympathetic words, Yun Que laughed in anger, gritted his teeth and asked, "If the princess missed my princess so much, why did she go through so much trouble just now?"
The implication was that she felt she was deliberately teasing her.
Song Yanxi explained: "Rules cannot be abolished, please forgive me, Miss Yunque."
The word "rules" is so powerful that even if Yun Que doesn't want to forgive, he can only grit his teeth and endure it.
Not to mention, she was just a servant serving Princess Huayang, so naturally, whatever her master Song Yanxi said was the final word.
Yun Que suppressed her anger, bowed to Song Yanxi and said, "I'll take my leave."
Song Yanxi nodded, but after she turned around and took a few steps, she suddenly called her.
"Miss Yunque, please take this message to Her Royal Highness the Princess on my behalf. Do more good deeds, and the Buddha will be at peace in your heart."
When Yun Que was about to explode, she said, "If Your Highness keeps fasting and chanting Buddhist scriptures all year round without eating meat, it will only damage your foundation in the long run.
Chanting Buddha's name and calming the mind is a good thing, but if it harms the body, it would be putting the cart before the horse."
When Yunque heard this, his face looked strange for a moment.
Then she nodded and waited for the person who delivered the potted plants to come out from the inner room before turning around and leaving.
Dehai saw it all and hurried in to check after everyone left, for fear that Emperor Xuande would see the potted plants his sister had carefully selected for him and become even more ill in anger.
If anything happens to His Majesty, he will not be able to keep his old bones alive and will just go down to serve.
He ran too fast, and by the time Song Yanxi caught up, he had already rushed in.
If you don’t know, you might think she is the one with the bad legs and feet.
Looking at Emperor Xuande lying motionless with his eyes closed on the bed, Dehai's legs went weak and he almost fell to the ground.
He cried out in a trembling voice, "Your Majesty."
Just as his eyes were red and about to shed tears, Song Yanxi's voice rang out from behind him, "Eunuch De, His Majesty is fine, he just fell asleep."
Dehai couldn't believe his ears.
Your Majesty is a light sleeper on weekdays and will be awakened by the slightest noise.
There was such loud talking outside just now, and someone was moving things in. How could he possibly sleep?
Thinking that the person might have fainted, Dehai felt even more uncomfortable and hurriedly looked at Song Yanxi and said, "Princess, His Majesty is not asleep, he has clearly fainted from anger.
Please hurry up and take His Majesty's pulse."
Seeing her standing still, Dehai suddenly became anxious and gritted his teeth and said, "Princess, I don't know what the rumors are saying outside, but Your Majesty and the Prince are father and son after all.
Even if the bones are broken, they are still connected by tendons, you..."
Song Yanxi stepped forward to help him up, and said helplessly: "Don't worry, Eunuch De, His Majesty has indeed fainted."
Afraid that Dehai wouldn't believe her, she lowered her voice and said, "When I went out just now, I gave Your Majesty some incense that can make people sleepy."
“Bold!”
