Chapter 449 Staying for Treatment
Bai's heart felt a tearing pain, her face was as pale as paper, everything in front of her eyes was spinning faster and faster, and getting darker and darker. Finally, she closed her eyes and fell backwards.
"Mother!" Chu Liuzheng hurriedly hugged his mother, his face pale with fear, and said urgently, "Siyue, come and see my mother."
Siyue quickly stepped forward and took Bai's pulse.
"Sister, what happened to mother?" Chu Yuxin rushed in like a cannonball when she heard the shout, with pastry crumbs on the corners of her mouth.
Chu Qin also walked to the side of the screen worriedly and asked loudly, "Youmiao, what happened to your mother?"
"Mother fainted." Chu Liuzheng held Bai in his arms, staring intently at Siyue's face, and asked anxiously, "How is my mother?"
"You're so angry that your pulse is very disordered." Si Yue frowned slightly, glanced at Bai, whose face was as pale as gold paper, took out a small medicine bottle from his sleeve pocket, poured a pink pill into Bai's mouth, and used some skill to make Bai swallow it.
Just then, Chen Xing brought Qin Shu here.
Chu Liuzheng was overjoyed and hurriedly ordered people to carry Bai onto the bed to make room for Qin Shu to treat her.
Outside the screen, Xiao Anzi tried her best to stop Chu Qin. Chu Qin didn't want to cause trouble for his daughter, so he could only pace around the hall anxiously, asking about Bai's situation from time to time.
Xiao Jingfan came over at this time.
After the court was dismissed, he was busy summoning ministers to discuss matters, and only now did he have some free time.
Since he loves Chong Chu Liu Zheng, her parents should naturally come and meet her.
"Your Majesty, may you be well!"
Amid the greetings from all over the hall, Chu Qin hurriedly knelt down. Seeing a piece of exquisitely embroidered black clothing stop in front of him, he couldn't help but lower his head even more, wondering if the emperor was disturbed by the noise here. Would he blame his daughter, or would he blame them?
For a moment, his heart was beating like a drum, as if the person standing in front of him was not the emperor but the god of death.
Xiao Jingfan looked him over and said, "Everyone, get up."
Everyone stood up, but Chu Qin was lost in his own thoughts and forgot to get up. He felt a force on his arm, and subconsciously followed it to his feet. Looking up, he saw a fair and handsome young man.
It’s the emperor!
The emperor actually helped him up himself!
Chu Qin's legs went weak, and if Xiao Jingfan hadn't held on firmly, he would have fallen back.
"Ouch!" Zhou Yuande, who was standing by, stepped forward to help him, "Please go slowly."
He helped Chu Qin back to sit on a chair not far away, his fat face smiling like Maitreya Buddha.
——This man is Chu Liuzheng’s father, the emperor’s father-in-law. We will have many dealings with him in the future, so it’s best to sell him a good one first.
Under the emperor's gaze, Chu Qin didn't know where to put his hands and feet. He just sat stiffly at the side, ready to jump up and kneel down to kowtow to the emperor at any time.
But before he could jump up, Chu Liuzheng pulled Chu Yuxin out from behind the screen and gave him a reassuring look.
[Ah, Daddy is still the same as before, still so strong.]
My eldest daughter!
Chu Qin's eyes lit up, and the word "youmiao" was on the tip of his tongue, but when he saw Chu Liuzheng saluting the emperor, he swallowed it back in a hurry, almost choking and rolling his eyes.
He excitedly gripped the armrests of the chair, staring at Chu Liuzheng's profile without blinking, his nose sore.
During the years he was away, the child suffered the most.
"Your Majesty, may you be well and safe." Chu Liuzheng knelt down and bowed to Xiao Jingfan, while Chu Yuxin knelt down obediently and kowtowed three times.
This was what Chu Liuzheng had just taught her. The little girl learned it very well and kowtowed very clearly.
Xiao Jingfan called out in a gentle voice and rewarded her with a necklace-style longevity locket, made of pure gold with a large piece of jade inlaid in the middle. It was obvious that it was worth a lot of money.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Chu Yuxin smiled so hard that her teeth were showing. Even though she didn't know that the man in front of her was temporarily her brother-in-law, she quickly classified the emperor as a good person in her heart.
[Wow, the tyrant actually knew to prepare a meeting gift.]
Chu Liuzheng looked at his sister and saw that she immediately put on the necklace around her neck. He was surprised and a little amused at the same time.
Could it be that the emperor had inquired about it and knew that this girl loved money, so he prepared it specially?
Otherwise, considering the emperor's taste, on this first meeting, he should at least appreciate something elegant and childlike, rather than a big gold lock that looks like it was copied from a nouveau riche's home.
Xiao Jingfan really prepared it specially. He heard from Zhou Yuande that last time Chu Yuxin received the reward, she was so happy that her smooth little face almost wrinkled with smile. Thinking that Chu Liuzheng was also often obsessed with money, he ordered someone to take this thing out from the warehouse.
He lowered his eyes and looked closely at Chu Yuxin's appearance.
The little girl's face has not yet fully grown. Her hair is at her eyebrows, her face is round with baby fat, her facial features are regular, and her pair of almond-shaped eyes are almost exactly the same as Chu Liuzheng's. Xiao Jingfan couldn't help but feel a bit of love for her.
Chu Yuxin was also looking at him with her little head tilted.
Dr. Cha was wrong. The emperor was not superhuman. He was such a handsome man, rich and handsome. No wonder he could marry as many as three thousand wives.
If Xiao Jingfan knew what she was thinking, he would probably want to vomit blood.
The three thousand beauties in the harem are not the real three thousand, there are really not that many!
When the old and the young were looking at each other, Chu Liuzheng mentioned asking Qin Shu to come and treat Bai's illness.
"Your Majesty, Doctor Qin is giving my mother acupuncture. It's inconvenient for her to move right now. Could you please let my mother stay in the palace for a while?"
Xiao Jingfan agreed readily.
He also knew that Bai had an old illness. Since he had already started treatment, he might as well cure the illness before leaving the palace. There was no shortage of accommodation in the palace, and it was more convenient to use medicine than outside.
He turned around and ordered, "Zhou Yuande, have the Ministry of Internal Affairs tidy up the Qingliang Palace so that Madam Chu can recuperate."
Chu Liuzheng was stunned when he heard this.
[Frog fun! The tyrant is so happy that my mother just stayed like this?]
If I had known the tyrant was so easy to talk to, I should have brought my mother to the palace to be treated sooner. It took so long for nothing.
"But, will it be dangerous for A Niang to stay in the palace? I have secret guards protecting me, so those people can't attack me. But what if they attack A Niang?"
"How about I move to Qingliang Palace and live with my mother? It's been ages since we last met, so I can spend some quality time with her."
Thinking of this, she secretly glanced at Xiao Jingfan.
[The tyrant is so easy to talk to, he should agree, right? ]
Xiao Jingfan: Don’t even think about it!!
[Hmm... I think they can agree. Hehe, I'll have someone move the stuff over there in a bit.]
Chu Liuzheng was calculating in his mind, completely unaware that the emperor's face had darkened.
Chu Yuxin noticed it, quickly pulled her sister's sleeve, and hid behind her.
——The emperor with a sullen face is a bit scary.
Chu Liuzheng then remembered that he had not yet thanked him, and quickly knelt down and bowed, "Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty."
Before her knees even touched the ground, Xiao Jingfan reached out and pulled her up, letting her sit down beside him. He spoke gently, "I told you not to kneel so easily. The Ministry of Internal Affairs doesn't know Madam Chu's preferences. I'll have Wang Jinzhong come over to take your orders. If you have any requests, please feel free to ask. Don't be afraid of the trouble."
