Nangong Yi watched Lan Shuang drink the medicine obediently, and the tension in his heart relaxed. "My beloved concubine, take good care of yourself. You will definitely get better. When the time comes, I will take you to the hunting ground, the palace, or anywhere else."
Lan Shuang really wanted to pick out the two words "hehe" and throw them at his silly face.
Bullshit! If she keeps taking this medicine, she could go to the underworld and race horses with the King of Hell.
The original owner's heart disease is getting worse and worse, isn't it all because of this medicine?
But Nangong Yi was still pretending to be affectionate at this time.
Lan Shuang's stomach churned. Seeing Nangong Yi scooping another spoonful of medicine and feeding it to her, she obeyed her instinct and opened her mouth to vomit.
Nangong Yi was caught off guard and was vomited all over. He was completely stunned and looked confused for a long time, not knowing what had happened.
It was the palace servants who reacted first and stepped forward tremblingly, "Your Majesty, are you okay?"
"Oh my God, why are you vomiting?"
Su Ming nervously took a handkerchief to wipe Nangong Yi's face and hands. Nangong Yi then reacted and his face suddenly turned dark. He was about to lose his temper when Lan Shuang suddenly turned her head and leaned over the bed, vomiting heart-wrenchingly.
But she hadn't eaten anything at noon, and she had digested the watery soup she had in the morning. After vomiting for a long time, she only vomited some sour water. Because of this, her vomiting became more and more difficult. The blue veins on her forehead bulged, and the corners of her eyes and the tip of her nose were red. She looked so pitiful.
Nangong Yi couldn't bring himself to blame anyone, especially since there were so many palace servants watching him. He couldn't let his image of being a doting concubine fall apart.
Zhishu knelt on the ground and patted Lan Shuang's back, tears streaming down his face. "My Lady, why are you vomiting again? Are you feeling unwell?"
Lan Shuang waved her hands weakly.
What's wrong with her? She felt sick just seeing this scum, and she had to play along with him. If she didn't vomit, she would have to take medicine.
Thinking of this, she vomited even harder.
Just as Zhishu was about to wipe her tears, Nangong Yi suddenly pushed Su Ming away, knelt on one knee on the footstool, and stretched out his hand to Zhishu: "Give me the handkerchief."
Zhishu was immediately moved, "Your Majesty really loves the Queen."
Lan Shuang: “…Ugh…”
"Imperial Physician, please tell the Imperial Physician to come back to me!"
Nangong Yi took the handkerchief and yelled, and Su Ming immediately ran away.
Lan Shuang had calmed down by now. Before Nangong Yi could speak, she grasped Nangong Yi's hand and said with apologetic and painful words, "I have caused Your Majesty to worry about my broken body again."
She burst into tears, and her tearful look made it impossible to say anything harsh. Nangong Yi also felt helpless facing her.
"Don't be silly, it's my fault for not taking good care of you."
"No..." Lan Shuang held Nangong Yi's hand and smiled sadly. Her beauty seemed to be about to shatter in the next moment, except for her eyes that were dazzlingly bright.
"Your Majesty has treated me with all kindness, but I am unworthy of your kindness." She sighed and squeezed Nangong Yi's hand even tighter. When Nangong Yi's facial features were slightly distorted, she suddenly loosened her grip, lay back on the bed, and whispered, "I was not afraid of death. After all, we are alone in this world. But when I met Your Majesty, I felt a concern in my heart that I could not let go. I wanted to stay with Your Majesty for a few more years, but unfortunately, the way of heaven is cruel. I am afraid that I can only go first."
Hearing her say this, Zhishu couldn't help crying, and the other palace maids also looked reluctant and lowered their heads.
The atmosphere in the hall was depressing and solemn, and even Nangong Yi's heart was a little heavy.
Originally, Lan Shuang was dying, so he should be happy, but now he couldn't be happy at all.
The imperial physician was pulled back halfway through his walk, cursing in his heart, but when he saw Nangong Yi, he still had to bow, "Your Majesty."
Nangong Yi hurriedly stood up and said, "Quickly show the imperial concubine, why is she vomiting for no reason?"
The imperial physician met his gaze and understood a little more. He quickly took Lan Shuang's pulse. After a while, he gave Nangong Yi a look. Nangong Yi said to Zhishu, "Help your madam drink some warm water and change into clean clothes."
Zhishu wiped his face and said, "Yes."
…
Nangong Yi followed the imperial physician to the outer room. After making sure that the people inside could not hear him, Nangong Yi asked in a low voice, "How is it?"
The imperial physician sighed before he could speak, and Nangong Yi's heart sank. "What happened?"
The imperial physician said with a worried look on his face, "The Imperial Concubine is already weak, and medicine is three-quarters toxic. In addition... drinking it for a long time will always harm the body, so it is normal for the stomach and intestines to react first."
He didn't know what the emperor was thinking. He didn't favor such a beautiful woman and was thinking about how to kill her all day long. It was obvious that the imperial concubine had no bad intentions.
But he only dared to say these words in his heart and did not dare to say them out loud. After all, the other party was the emperor, and he could chop off his head with just one word, so he still had to die.
The emperor should be happy this time, right?
The imperial physician quietly raised his head and took a look, but to his surprise, the emperor was not only unhappy, but his eyes became even colder.
Imperial Physician: “?”
What exactly do you want?
Nangong Yi gritted his teeth and said, "If I continue to drink the medicine, will I vomit again?"
The imperial physician was silent for a moment and then said, "It's hard to say. Everyone's constitution is different, so I dare not make any rash judgments. However, Your Majesty's stomach is fragile, so it's best to be cautious. If she vomits too much, I'm afraid it will cause greater damage."
Nangong Yi fell silent again. The imperial physician shut up and waited. After a long while, a voice came from the inner room, "The Empress seems to have fallen asleep?"
"Should we wake the Queen? His Majesty is still outside?"
Nangong Yi's eyes narrowed slightly, "Forget it, let's stop taking the medicine for now and switch to incense."
"Yes, I obey your command."
Nangong Yi waved his hand, and the imperial physician retreated and was about to go out when suddenly a tall figure appeared at the door. He looked up and saw that it was the imperial teacher.
He quickly made way and bowed, saying, "Master Imperial Master."
The Imperial Master didn't even look at him, just nodded slightly and looked into the hall.
Nangong Yi heard the noise and looked over. The two exchanged glances. Nangong Yi couldn't help but clench his hands behind his back, but with a gentle smile on his face, "Why is the Imperial Master here?"
"Just now, I rescued the Imperial Concubine in the Imperial Garden. I wanted to go to the Imperial Study to see Your Majesty, but I thought Your Majesty cared about her and should be here, so I came to see her."
Nangong Yi nodded, "The imperial concubine is fine now. I have to thank the Imperial Master."
The Imperial Master glanced towards the bed, but only saw a hazy figure. "It's just my duty."
"The Imperial Concubine is weak, Your Majesty should indeed pay more attention to her. After all, the Duke of Zhenguo cherishes this daughter very much."
The Imperial Master seemed to give Nangong Yi some unintentional advice.
Nangong Yi's face darkened slightly. "Well, I understand. What does the Imperial Master want from me?"
"Your Majesty's birthday is in half a month. Regarding the birthday banquet, I have some matters to discuss with Your Majesty. Since the Imperial Concubine is free, please move to the Imperial Study."
Nangong Yi didn't think much about it and nodded: "Yeah."
