Chapter 2240 Nan Yan's Hostility
Although her gaze was not sharp, in such a somewhat dull atmosphere, she could almost see through Xue Yun's body.
Seeing that she hadn't spoken, Xue Yun said carefully, "I am here to check your pulse."
"Um."
This time, Nan Yan finally responded.
She raised her hand, and Ran Xiaoyu hurried forward and lifted her sleeve a little to reveal her slender wrist.
Xue Yunhe took out a small cushion and a silk handkerchief, placed them in place, and then took her pulse.
Then he said softly, "Your Majesty's pulse is calm, but you still have signs of qi deficiency and blood deficiency. You need to take good care of yourself and don't overwork yourself."
Nan Yan retracted her wrist, straightened her sleeves, and said with a smile, "I can't do this without worrying about it."
“…”
"There are so many people and things going on in this harem. The late Empress has passed away. I cannot just ignore her."
“…”
"So many eyes are staring at me... and also at the Emperor."
Xue Yun listened and broke out in a cold sweat on his back.
He smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work, my lady."
Nan Yan looked at her and said, "It's hard work, but you still have to take care of yourself. Since the emperor asked Doctor Xue to continue to take care of me, then I'll have to trouble Doctor Xue with this matter."
Xue Yun said: "I dare not, this is my duty."
Nan Yan said, "Then, I'll trouble Doctor Xue to focus on taking care of me these days. If other concubines in the harem are ill, or if anyone else has any problems, please leave them to the other doctors in the Imperial Hospital so that you won't be distracted."
Xue Yun lowered his head and said, "Yes."
Nan Yan nodded and waved her hand: "Send Doctor Xue."
Xue Yun bowed to her again before turning around and walking out.
Ran Xiaoyu had been standing behind Nan Yan, and at this moment her brows were slightly furrowed - although what Nan Yan said to Xue Yun just now sounded fine, but she had been with Nan Yan for so long and knew her personality and character very well.
Those words would never have come from her.
But what was her intention in saying those words to Xue Yun?
She was about to ask, but she saw Nan Yan called Ting Fu again and said, "Come with me and take a look."
"yes."
After hearing Fu's response, he immediately turned around and ran out.
Ran Xiaoyu couldn't hold back any longer this time. Seeing Nan Yan reaching out for the tea, she hurriedly handed it to her and asked, "Is your Majesty dissatisfied with Xue Yun?"
“…”
Nan Yan took a sip of tea and then looked up at her.
Ran Xiaoyu said, "Why do I feel that what the Madam just said to her seems to have a deeper meaning?"
“…”
Nan Yan was silent for a moment, and did not answer her. She only said, "Let's talk later."
Ran Xiaoyu felt that her complexion and spirit were not very good, so she did not ask any more questions and only added some hot water to her cup. Nan Yan was drinking when she saw Tingfu running back from outside, panting and bowing, "My Lady."
Nan Yan asked, "Xue Yun, have you returned to the Imperial Hospital?"
Tingfu lowered his head and said carefully, "Doctor Xue did not return to the Imperial Hospital, but went to the Imperial Study."
“……!”
Nan Yan's hand shook and the teacup in her hand almost fell.
Fortunately, she grabbed it quickly, but the hot water still spilled out and splashed all over her hand.
"Empress!"
Ran Xiaoyu was so scared that she hurriedly took it and used a handkerchief to wipe her. Fortunately, it was only hot water, not boiling water, but it still burned Nan Yan's hands and left large patches of them red.
But Nan Yan seemed to feel no pain.
Just waved his hand gently.
Tingfu immediately withdrew.
Ran Xiaoyu's brows knitted together. She looked at Nan Yan and whispered, "Your Majesty, what is Xue Yun doing in the Imperial Study?"
Nan Yan's face was gloomy.
After a long while, he said, "This is what I am worried about."
Only then did she tell Ran Xiaoyu the answer she had obtained from interrogating Xue Yun on the night of the Wu rebellion. When Ran Xiaoyu heard it, her face immediately fell.
"As expected, she really is..."
She had been worried before, and this worry was not groundless. Since she was at the Lianxin Club, she had noticed that Xue Yun had some inexplicable and ambiguous atmosphere towards the emperor, or in other words, there was some inexplicable and ambiguous atmosphere between these two people.
But, to be honest, the two of them didn't seem to do anything special.
But it just made her uneasy.
Now, this uneasiness seems to have become a reality.
Just now, every word Nan Yan said to Xue Yun was a reminder, even a warning. Even if others might not understand, since Xue Yun had already told the imperial concubine about his feelings, there was no way she didn't know the deep meaning of what the imperial concubine said.
She herself also agreed clearly.
But as soon as she turned around and left the bedroom, she went to the emperor's study.
Are they really...
Ran Xiaoyu clenched her fists suddenly. After all, she practiced martial arts, and when she exerted force with her hands, her finger bones cracked.
Nan Yan turned her head and glanced at her, then suddenly said, "Don't be impulsive."
Ran Xiaoyu also lowered her head to look at her, and said calmly: "Don't worry, Madam, I know what to do and what not to do."
Seeing her like this, Nan Yan breathed a sigh of relief.
After Ran Xiaoyu came back, she never told her because she was worried that she would do something to Xue Yun in a fit of desperation. But now it seems that Ran Xiaoyu has been reborn and is completely different from the impulsive and irritable girl before.
She only said solemnly: "What does your Majesty plan to do?"
“…What else can we do?”
Nan Yan gritted her teeth, as if she had a headache, more like a severe pain in her heart. The corners of her eyes were slightly red. She said, "I have said everything I should say and reminded everyone I should remind. But she, she just won't listen."
Ran Xiaoyu looked at her like this, with a complicated look in her eyes.
Although Ran Xiaoyu had been wary of Xue Yun from the beginning and hoped that Nan Yan would believe her, now Nan Yan already knew Xue Yun's intentions, but her reaction surprised her a little.
She was very hostile towards Xue Yun.
She was more hostile than any other concubine in the palace, even than Feng Shu who seduced the emperor and Feng Qianyan who competed for his favor.
Nan Yan sensed her silence and turned to look at her: "What's wrong?"
"No, nothing."
Ran Xiaoyu shook her head, thought for a moment, and asked, "Then, Madam, would you like me to go and give her a hint?"
Her "point" is not that simple.
Nan Yan bit her lower lip, thought for a moment, and then said, "Don't worry."
“…”
"The most urgent matter right now is the musk beads and the Xu family's matter. If this matter is not handled properly, I will not have the energy to do anything else."
“…”
"Xue Yun..."
She repeated the name again, her tone sounding very heavy.
Shen Chen said: "I will take my time with her affairs."
