Chapter 137 Flowers and Plants

Shen Yu's expression changed slightly: "Take blood?"

"Your Majesty is seriously ill, and it is said that it is a sequelae of the previous poisoning. Now that His Majesty's health is deteriorating, the imperial physician has proposed the method of donating blood." Qingyu said.

"Your Majesty's birth date and time match your Majesty's, so she is the best candidate. In the past two years, your Majesty has sent eunuchs to draw blood once a month, and his physical symptoms have indeed eased a lot. But for some reason, your Majesty has recently increased the frequency of drawing blood."

Shen Yu listened to Qingyu's words. He didn't say a word. He waited for Qingyu to finish speaking before asking, "Who told you all these things?"

"I can't remember clearly, it seems to be the eunuch who was guarding before." Qingyu said vaguely, "Anyway, you have to be careful on the day of blood collection, don't barge in. Eunuch Li has a bad temper, be careful to be beaten to death by him."

Shen Yu was thoughtful after hearing this: "Is that so... Thank you, Sister Qingyu, for your advice. When that day comes, I will stay away and not enter the inner hall."

Qingyu sighed, and she gave Shen Yu a few more instructions before taking the coarse cloth clothes she had just changed and going to wash them.

Shen Yu watched her walk away, then he put the barrel into the utility room and casually glanced at the flowers and weeds around him on his way back.

The vegetation in Kunning Palace was lush, but there were no special palace maids or eunuchs to manage it. These unknown flowers and plants grew in groups of two or three, with very small flower buds, growing among the green leaves, scattered randomly in every corner of Kunning Palace.

Shen Yu took a general look at the appearance of these flowers and plants. He reached out and picked some flowers and plants and put them in his pocket. At the appointed time, he went into the inner hall to replace the tea set with new ones.

Some light appeared in the inner hall.

In the past, Wen Yu would always light red candles day and night, and would not allow any extra light to penetrate into the room at any time of day or night. The gloomy darkness filled the center of the inner hall, like a lifeless prison.

Today he actually removed the screen beside the bed, letting the light from outside in.

Shen Yu walked in and placed a brand new set of tea set on the table. Turning around, he saw Wen Yu lying on the bed, half leaning against the wall, still holding the yellowed medical book in his hand.

"Empress, when did you wake up?" Shen Yu tested the water temperature and then poured some boiling water into the cup.

Wen Yu was still half lying on the bed. He followed Shen Yu's figure with his eyes and curled his lips: "You were busy chatting with the little palace maids, so you naturally didn't know when I woke up."

He said, turning the page of the book: "You must be laughing so hard."

Shen Yu paused for a moment, looked at Wen Yu, and asked, "Madam, are you spying on me?"

"..." Wen Yu's expression remained the same, "I looked at the scenery, did I look at you?"

Shen Yu laughed. He took another cup of warm water from the table and walked to Wen Yu's side. "My queen, only when you know yourself and the enemy can you make appropriate moves. All the information I got was extracted from them."

Wen Yu stopped flipping through the book. He didn't ask any more questions. He took the water cup and took a sip. "What did you find out?"

Shen Yu's eyes flashed across Wen Yu's wrist, where there were several scars of varying depths, which had changed color over time.

He originally thought that this was the scar left by Wen Yu's broken tendons, but now it seems that there may be other factors involved.

"I didn't get anything useful out of it. Qingyu just told me that Eunuch Li has a bad temper and told me to stay away from him to avoid being punished by him in the future."

Wen Yu smiled contemptuously after hearing this: "What's there to be afraid of about an old eunuch? To be honest, Qingyu and that eunuch Li are almost the same, they are the same kind of people, neither of them is a good thing."

Wen Yu hated the people in Kunning Palace to the core. He cursed at them a few times, with a cold face, as if he was still not satisfied.

Shen Yu did not continue the topic. He took out the bunch of flowers and plants in his pocket and placed them on the table. After careful selection, he picked out the flower buds and put them into the cup of boiled water that he had poured earlier.

Wen Yu glanced at the table, looked at the bed for a few seconds, put on his shoes and walked to Shen Yu's side: "What is this?"

Shen Yu did not answer. He soaked the flower buds and asked, "My queen, did you plant all the flowers and plants in Kunning Palace?"

Wen Yu found a chair and sat down. He smiled and said, "Did Qingyu tell you this?"

"No." Shen Yu turned his head, picked up a thin leaf of grass on the table, rubbed it and squeezed out some green juice.

"I have seen this kind of flower before in the cold mountain of the shadow building. I forgot what it was called, but I heard from the shadow on the mountain that this herb has the effect of removing blood stasis and pus, and it is an extremely rare herb."

Shen Yu asked, "Besides the Queen, who else can grow these herbs in Kunning Palace?"

"You are quite good at guessing." Wen Yu smiled faintly after hearing this. "I am just killing time when I have nothing to do. These herbs are useless."

Shen Yu put down the herbs and said, "Does Your Majesty know about this?"

"He doesn't understand medicine, so of course he doesn't know." The sarcasm in Wen Yu's tone rose again.

He was imprisoned in Kunning Palace by Emperor Yue, but he did not just sit there and do nothing. Wen Yu also bribed the palace maids who were guarding the palace to bring him some flower and plant seeds from outside.

These things are neither sharp nor dangerous, and some palace ladies are willing to take the risk to do them for the money.

Wen Yu mixed these herbs and planted them in a pile of weeds. He deliberately picked herbs that looked similar to the weeds, so they were not discovered for several months.

Unexpectedly, Shen Yu noticed something unusual just a few days after arriving here.

Wen Yu watched Shen Yu picking the leaves of the flowers and plants one by one, and he became interested: "What are you going to do with them? They are of no use to you in detoxifying."

Shen Yu glanced at him and said, "My Lady, this is useless for my detoxification, but it is useful for your broken tendons and veins."

The smile on Wen Yu's face froze. He looked at Shen Yu's face and said slowly, "This is of no use to me. I've already tried it."

"Of course this herb alone won't work." Shen Yu pondered, "We need to add a few more herbs."

There are still some places in Kunning Palace that Shen Yu has not carefully examined. He can take this opportunity to look for the remaining medicinal herbs.

"My queen, please tell me what herbs you have planted outside before." Shen Yu pulled out a piece of white paper next to him, "It would be best if you could list the locations as well."

Wen Yu lowered his eyes and looked at the paper. He had no opinion, so he took a pen and slowly wrote a few lines on it.

"Shen Yu, the people trained in the Shadow Studio are all shadow killers, but there are no specialized doctors." Wen Yu wrote the words neatly, stroke by stroke, and asked casually, "How do you know how to treat it?"

"I wasn't from the film studio before, but I did learn a little about medicine." Shen Yu said calmly.

As for why he knew how to treat ruptured tendons...

Shen Yu felt a slight pain in his head. He frowned and suppressed the discomfort.

Those medicinal materials and methods of use had been engraved in his mind without his knowledge. Shen Yu lowered his head and said, "I just know it."
