Chapter 1387 Overcoming this hurdle in my heart
At this moment, several young eunuchs from the Imperial Pharmacy ran in and whispered, "Your Majesty, the medicine for the Empress has arrived."
When Zhu Feng heard this, he immediately turned around and said, "Give it to me!"
"ah?"
Several young eunuchs, along with the maids serving outside, were stunned for a moment. Shouldn't they be helping the imperial concubine drink her medicine at this time? Why—
However, Eunuch Yu on the side immediately waved at them: "The Emperor has given the order, why don't you hurry up!"
"oh oh."
They hurriedly brought the bowl of medicine.
Zhu Feng took it and waved at them: "Get out."
“…”
A group of people looked at each other and obediently left the bedroom. Eunuch Yu was the last one to come out and closed the door.
By this time, it was so dark that one could not see one's hand in front of one's face. Only a few panicked eunuchs were left under the eaves, lighting lanterns and looking at them.
Aunt Tongyun was still a little worried: "Eunuch Yu, if we come out like this, the Imperial Concubine will—"
"Don't worry."
Eunuch Yu glanced at the tightly closed door. He was soaked to the skin, but a relieved smile appeared on his rain-soaked face. He said, "As long as the Emperor is willing to get over this, everything will be fine. The Imperial Concubine will be fine."
Aunt Tongyun also knew that he was an old man in the palace, and he was a serious and prudent man, so he would naturally not lie to her.
At this time, I also breathed a sigh of relief.
However, just as he breathed a sigh of relief, he sighed again and said, "I'm not afraid of anything, but I'm afraid of the Queen's temper. She's so stubborn. If she wakes up, who knows what she'll do."
Eunuch Yu also smiled bitterly: "Yes, when it comes to temperament, the Imperial Concubine is second in this palace, and no one can be first."
"Eunuch, be careful with your words!"
"I know, we're just talking among ourselves. If the emperor heard it, I'm afraid he would really chop off my head."
As Eunuch Yu spoke, he smiled bitterly and shook his head.
At this time, a gust of wind blew, and Eunuch Yu couldn't help sneezing, and then he sneezed two or three times in a row.
The young eunuchs on the side rushed over and said, "Grandfather, you have caught a cold!"
"It's true. Alas, I'm old and can't hold on any longer."
"Old Ancestor, hurry over there to warm up and change your clothes."
"Well, go over there and prepare some hot water."
Eunuch Yu sent them off to do their work, then turned back to exchange a few perfunctory words with Wang Baizhi and the others, and the doctors left the palace. He then turned to Aunt Tongyun and Nianqiu and said, "Alright, it's getting late, and you're all soaking wet. We've got them preparing a room over there with some hot water. Go get some rest."
Aunt Tongyun hesitated and said, "Here——"
"Don't worry."
Eunuch Yu smiled and glanced back at the tightly closed door of the bedroom. No matter how stormy it was outside, there was no sound from inside. The quieter it was, the more reassuring it was. He said, "The Emperor won't send anyone in again. It won't be too late to come back tomorrow morning."
"Is this really possible?"
"We can guarantee it, but Auntie, don't you think you can trust me?"
"Of course not. Eunuch Yu's words are truer than gold."
Aunt Tongyun smiled, looked back, and then pulled Nianqiu and the others to leave. But after taking two steps, she saw Ran Xiaoyu standing blankly under the eaves, not saying a word.
She had been silent ever since she invited Zhu Feng over. This silence made people feel a little strange and a little uneasy.
She walked over and whispered, "Xiaoyu, what's wrong with you? We should go."
“…”
Ran Xiaoyu was holding her hand and swayed slightly.
But, I still didn't leave.
At this time, Eunuch Yu walked over, looked at Ran Xiaoyu's lost look, and said softly: "Miss Xiaoyu, go and rest first. Don't let the imperial concubine be fine and you fall ill. That would be troublesome."
"yes."
"Besides, people will be refreshed after a good rest, and when they are refreshed, they will know what they should do."
“…”
Ran Xiaoyu's eyes flashed and she looked up at him.
But Eunuch Yu just smiled, bowed to them, and turned away.
Aunt Tongyun also walked over, patted Ran Xiaoyu's shoulder gently, and took her and Nianqiu to the small room on the side hall.
The rain is still falling.
Eunuch Yu asked someone to hold an umbrella for him as he walked out. However, just as he passed a corner door, he heard someone outside calling him, "Eunuch Yu."
Eunuch Yu thought the voice sounded familiar, so he turned around and saw a dark shadow standing there.
It was none other than Gu Tingqiu.
He also held an umbrella, but he didn't know how long he had been standing there, and most of his clothes were wet by the rain.
Seeing it was him, Eunuch Yu exclaimed and walked over: "My Lord Gu, haven't you all gone back? Why are you still standing here?"
Gu Tingqiu sighed.
Ever since he heard Ran Xiaoyu say that the Imperial Concubine was seriously ill in the Imperial Study just now, he realized how many things had happened in the harem. But the harem was not a place that a man like him could go to casually. So, when Zhu Feng left the Imperial Study without saying a word and went to the Cold Palace, they all had to disperse. But he was still worried about the Imperial Concubine, so he stayed here to see if he could find someone to inquire about it.
Unexpectedly, I ran into Eunuch Yu passing by.
He asked, "Eunuch Yu, how is the Imperial Concubine?"
Eunuch Yu also sighed, and then said, "Master Gu, please rest assured. The queen is fine."
"The Emperor—"
"The young couple was just sulking. Now the Emperor has brought the Empress out of the cold palace and brought her back to the bedroom. Your Excellency can rest assured."
Hearing this, Gu Tingqiu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He smiled bitterly and said, "I hope Eunuch Yu won't take offense. I also know that matters in the harem are not our business."
Eunuch Yu smiled and said, "It's only natural for an uncle to feel sorry for his niece. How could we laugh?"
“…”
"Don't worry, sir. Now that you have the emperor's order, you don't have to be sent elsewhere and can spend more time in the capital."
"Please also ask Eunuch Yu to take good care of the queen."
"This is our family's responsibility."
After saying that, Gu Tingqiu bowed to him and turned to leave.
Eunuch Yu watched his back disappear in front of him without saying anything. Instead, the young eunuch beside him snorted coldly and said, "This guy has been saying nice things for a long time, but there is no response."
Eunuch Yu scolded, "What do you know?!"
"ah?"
"Master Gu is a famous scholar. He is giving face to people like us by dealing with them."
“…”
"You're counting on him to do you a favor. What do you think of him?"
After saying that, he turned away.
The young eunuch shrank his neck after being scolded and could only follow carefully.
However, just as they left, a dark figure walked out from a dark corner and quickly went to the harem.
