Zhou Qiongyue could only quickly say to her youngest son who was pouring her some water, "Go and call your brother back. There's no need to call the imperial physician. Mother... cough... other than the cough, I'm fine."
"Mother, drink some water first." Yuan Chaokang carefully fed Zhou Qiongyue some water and stuffed two pieces of dessert into Zhou Qiongyue's hand.
Yuan Chaokang signaled to his mother with his eyes to try it quickly.
Seeing that her youngest son insisted that she eat it, Zhou Qiongyue had no choice but to eat it as if she was completing a task.
Then Zhou Qiongyue looked at her youngest son with anticipation, hoping that he would quickly go and call Yuan Chaochang back.
Yuan Chaokang had no intention of calling his brother back: "Don't worry, mother. Even if it's just a cough, we still need to check it out again. You can rest assured after checking it out."
When the imperial physician heard Yuan Chaochang calling for him urgently, the three imperial physicians on duty at the Marquis Cheng'en's Mansion hurriedly rushed to the main courtyard with their medicine boxes.
One of them even ran away and lost one of his shoes without even turning back to pick it up. It was the apprentice behind him who helped him pick it up.
It can be seen how panicked the three imperial doctors were.
When the three imperial doctors rushed to the main courtyard, Zhou Qiongyue was eating snacks under Yuan Chaokang's sweet talk.
Zhou Qiongyue, Yuan Chaokang and the three imperial doctors were all shocked when they saw each other's condition.
Zhou Qiongyue was the first to ask, "Imperial Physicians, what are you doing?"
When the three doctors saw the princess's condition, they felt relieved but also a little embarrassed.
The imperial physician who was missing a shoe was particularly embarrassed.
Fortunately, the apprentice was perceptive and immediately brought the shoes up for his master to put on.
One of the doctors smiled and replied, "I heard that the princess has woken up. The three of us came to see her. We wouldn't feel at ease if we didn't."
The other two quickly agreed.
Zhou Qiongyue felt a little embarrassed that the imperial physician was so conscientious, as if she was being hypocritical if she wasn't enthusiastic about taking the medicine. "Then I'll trouble you, imperial physician!"
After Zhou Qiongyue finished speaking, she quickly placed the snacks in her hand on the plate and stretched out her hand for the imperial physician to take her pulse.
The three imperial doctors quickly declined, saying they dared not accept the responsibility!
Yuan Chaokang noticed his mother's little movements, but he didn't say anything. Diagnosing the disease was more important.
The imperial physician had just finished taking Zhou Qiongyue's pulse when Yuan Bohua and the Marquis of Cheng'en and his wife arrived.
They all seemed to be in a hurry. Yuan Bohua was still outside the door when his voice came in. "What's wrong, Princess?"
The three imperial doctors had obviously heard it, and they even guessed why Prince Fu'an had come. They quickly bowed and greeted the prince.
Yuan Bohua, the Cheng'en Marquis and his wife, and the other two immediately looked at Zhou Qiongyue. Seeing that she was fine, they turned their attention to the imperial physicians and asked, "No need to be so polite. How is the princess?"
The most senior imperial physician among them quickly came out to reply, "Your Highness, Your Highness, the Princess's condition is improving. We will adjust a few more medicines, and she should be fine after a while."
"That's good, that's good. Thank you for your hard work, three imperial doctors." Yuan Bohua thanked them while leading the three imperial doctors out.
Jin sat directly beside Zhou Qiongyue's bed, her mood was visibly happy, "You, you are usually in good health, but when you are sick, you are so scary."
Yuan Chaokang stood up calmly, then pressed his grandfather onto the stool where he had just been sitting, and looked at the plate of snacks on the table next to him. It was the medicinal food made by Gu Yu himself.
What bad intentions could Yuan Chaokang have? He just wanted his mother to eat more.
Marquis Cheng'en immediately understood his grandson's thoughts, and he calmly took the plate of snacks in his hand.
While his daughter and his wife were chatting, he passed a piece to his daughter from time to time, looking for an opportunity.
Thanks to the meticulous care of her family, Zhou Qiongyue finally recovered completely after a month.
During this period, Prince Rong also often lived in Prince Rong's mansion. Whenever he was asked to do official business outside Yuan'an City, he would directly turn it down. He would not go anywhere until his cousin recovered from her illness.
Marquis Cheng'en and his wife returned to the Marquis Cheng'en Mansion when their daughter was almost recovered.
As soon as the news that Zhou Qiongyue had completely recovered reached the palace, the empress dowager packed up her things and returned to the royal villa outside the city the next day.
Of course, the emperor also tried to persuade her to stay, but the empress dowager felt that she could not stay in the palace for a moment longer.
Originally, the Queen Mother had been looking for a princess for Prince Rong during this period, but after the incident involving the retired Emperor, Prince Rong had to observe mourning again.
The Queen Mother felt extremely upset as she took care of her two sons in Yuan'an.
In fact, Prince Rong just didn't marry a wife. He didn't have no women in his house. It's just that he didn't have a concubine to take out for socializing, but he still had many concubines.
There are no children yet, mainly because he has no wife, and the Queen Mother does not allow Prince Rong to have children in his harem.
But Prince Rong was growing older year by year, and the Queen Mother became quite anxious.
Because of Zhou Qiongyue's illness, Yuan Bohua and Yuan Chaokang have been more strict with her. She always feels like a pig raised by this father and son.
She eats this and that every day, and is given fruit snacks anytime and anywhere.
As for why Yuan Chaochang was not included, it was because this boy had to continue to serve as a companion in the palace and was the busiest person in the family.
However, Zhou Qiongyue knew that she had really scared them this time, so when they acted like this, she did not say anything in the short term and tried her best to go along with their wishes.
But Zhou Qiongyue looked at her waist which was getting fatter day by day, and she felt that she really could not satisfy these father and son.
So Zhou Qiongyue deliberately chose a lunchtime moment and said at the table, "I've gained a lot of weight recently. From now on, the three of you are not allowed to pass me food anytime, anywhere."
Yuan Bohua quickly picked up a piece of food for Zhou Qiongyue and coaxed her, "Are you fatter? Come and try this dish. It was invented by Gu Yu first. It's delicious."
Zhou Qiongyue took a deep breath and could only use her trump card: "Seriously, if you get too fat, you'll get sick."
Yuan Chaokang saw that his mother's complexion was indeed good. When he was the emperor in his previous life, he had read a lot of medical books. As an emperor, he always felt uneasy about leaving his life in the hands of others.
He couldn't even understand a pulse case, and yet he let others fool him. He had seen some in his life, and it was true that being too fat was not good for the body. "Father, just listen to Mother!"
Seeing that his ally had betrayed him, Yuan Bohua could only glare at Yuan Chaokang helplessly.
Seeing his father glaring at his brother, Yuan Chaochang quickly advised, "Father, you rarely read medical books and don't understand these things. Just listen to your brother!"
Zhou Qiongyue also looked at Yuan Bohua with anticipation.
Yuan Bohua······
In the end, Yuan Bohua agreed. Now Yuan Bohua realized that it was the youngest son's turn to be the head of the family.
Zhou Qiongyue was delighted to see that everyone agreed, so she suggested, "How about we stay at the manor for a few months and then come back?"
"No!" This time, Yuan Bohua, his father and his two sons gave the same answer.
