Chapter 21 Entering the Palace (Part 2)
The two maids saw that he was angry and took a few steps back. He said coldly, "Put the clothes here. This princess will change by herself. You can go out."
The maid seemed to have no way to deal with him, so she left.
Wei Qingcheng held the edge of the curtain and breathed a sigh of relief.
I went to look at the suit, and after putting it on, I checked it several times. There was nothing wrong with it, except that the collar was a little big and the color was a little bright.
But if he didn't change, it might mean he wouldn't listen to the teachings, so he had no choice but to leave the palace.
When he arrived at the inner hall, there was already someone sitting in the front hall. He thought it must be the queen. He did not dare to look at her any longer and hurried to pay his respects. However, the person in the hall did not speak for a long time.
He did not dare to stand up, and just knelt there. When his knees were numb, a majestic female voice sounded: "Princess Hexuan is really arrogant. You made me wait here for a long time."
This is a false accusation. Wei Qingcheng lowered his head and said, "I am late for changing clothes. Please calm down, Queen."
Xie Jingyu has a mother, so it should be appropriate for him to address her like this.
Before the Queen could speak, Aunt Liu beside her said, "Is it too late to change clothes? The Queen has been working day and night to take care of the harem, and it's hard to find time to see you.
You were late because you changed your clothes. In my opinion, the princess didn’t take the queen seriously at all. She even called her the queen directly. She didn’t even have you in her eyes or heart…”
Wei Qingcheng was just racking her brains over how to answer when she heard Xie Jingyu's voice: "He can call me whatever he wants. If the Queen is too free, why not go to the academy to see Jingsi instead of bullying my princess when I'm away.
Since the Queen cannot be a mother, don't blame me for sending Jingsi to someone who can be a mother. ”
He strode forward and supported Wei Qingcheng: "Hurry up, you don't have to kneel to anyone."
The leg that was supported underneath was numb from the pressure. Wei Qingcheng stumbled in the man's arms, her eyes sore and she actually felt a little aggrieved.
The queen was furious and shouted, "How dare you! Don't even think about sending Si'er to other concubines."
Xie Jingyu sneered, hugged the man in his arms and sat on a chair beside him, patted his back gently, and said to the people in the hall: "Queen, do you think I dare?"
The queen was touched in the soft spot, and she stared at Wei Qingcheng and made trouble.
"Look at what your good princess is wearing to see me. The colors are gaudy and her breasts are exposed, which is disgusting!"
Wei Qingcheng didn't know whether it was because of the pain in his knees or because he was tired from walking too much today, but he couldn't hold back the flow of tears. He looked at Xie Jingyu with tears in his eyes and shook his head.
"I didn't," he whispered.
Xie Jingyu looked at the small piece of exposed skin on his neck and gently stroked his collar.
He said to the queen's painted face, "The palace has specially prepared clothes for entering the palace."
The implication is that he knew about those conspiracies.
He also praised Wei Qingcheng: "Besides, my princess looks good in anything she wears, and this bright color suits you very well."
"Queen, please take a rest. Your legs hurt, so I won't bother you any more!"
After saying that, he carried Wei Qingcheng away, not caring about the opinions of the people in the palace.
After he left the palace, the queen threw a lot of things around, which frightened the palace maids and eunuchs outside the door.
He passed through many red walls until he was carried to a carriage.
His heartbeat stabilized a little.
"My Lord, why are you here?"
Xie Jingyu rolled up his trouser legs and looked down at his swollen knees and calves.
"I'm late, Qingcheng!"
A teardrop fell on his calf.
Xie Jingyu actually cried.
Wei Qingcheng didn't bring the clothes back when she came. He looked for Jiao Xiao on himself but couldn't find it.
He hurriedly used his fingers to wipe Xie Jingyu's tears.
"I'm fine, my lord. I'm no longer wronged the moment you came."
Xie Jingyu felt extremely distressed. Even though he had detained the man by his side, he was still injured. If he had been a little later, he would have suffered more torture...
He took out a box of medicine from the carriage, and blew gently on Wei Qingcheng's knees with red eyes.
He scooped out the ointment, rubbed it in his palm, and applied it on Wei Qingcheng's red, swollen and thin calves and knees.
"Does it still hurt?"
Xie Jingyu's eyes were full of tenderness, and Wei Qingcheng was deeply attracted by this look...
"It hurts a bit,"
In front of this person, he never seems to need to pretend.
He has some malicious thoughts. If I get hurt, he will always look at me like this.
After all, he is an old monster who has lived two lifetimes. His mind is no longer so pure.
Wei Qingcheng laughed at herself in her heart.
Then, he was frightened by his own thoughts and forced those bad thoughts to the back of his mind.
"Not anymore. They won't have the chance to take you away from me again."
Xie Jingyu pushed aside his injured leg, hugged him, and comforted him, as if admonishing himself and soothing the restless soul of Xie Jingyu in his previous life.
The weather in late autumn was still very cold. Wei Qingcheng left early and walked too much. She was sweating and was blown by the cold wind. Later, she was tormented and had a fever as soon as she got home.
With a blush on his face, he lay unconscious on the bed.
Xie Jingyu was extremely anxious and pulled out the token from his waist: "Jia Yi, go get the imperial physician. Send him here on horseback quickly. Anyone who tries to stop you will be killed!"
Ah Wu held the basin of water, and Xie Jingyu soaked a piece of cloth in water and wiped Wei Qingcheng's forehead and neck.
Xie Jingyu regretted that he should have invited a skilled doctor to live in the mansion. He only remembered to find a famous doctor to treat Qingcheng.
But I forget that some emergencies require a doctor nearby.
After about three quarters of an hour, the imperial physician finally arrived.
"The fever has subsided a little. It was just a cold. The princess looks very tired and weak, which is a bit tormenting.
Ordinary people can recover from this disease on their own, but the princess...is not feeling well. Fortunately, the fever subsided quickly.
Tonight, the prince wants someone to serve the princess. If you have fever medicine, apply cold compress immediately.
As long as the fever doesn't come back, there shouldn't be any big problem. Take the medicine and take good care of yourself. But you still have to be careful with supplements and avoid taking too much tonic. The princess' body can't take it. ”
"Jiayi, take him to find Butler Song and arrange accommodation for the imperial physician. We will have to ask the imperial physician to stay in the palace tonight."
The doctor followed Jia out and wiped the sweat from his forehead. Why is the prince more frightening than the emperor now? Fortunately, it is not a serious illness...
After the imperial physician left, Xie Jingyu ordered his servants to boil some medicine and asked Awu to carry it. He picked up Wei Qingcheng's body, let him lean against him, and patiently fed him mouthful by mouthful with a spoon.
After drinking the medicine, the man didn't wake up, but his face wrinkled, apparently because of the bitterness.
Xie Jingyu wanted to feed him some candy, but was afraid that he would be unconscious and choke, so she asked the kitchen to boil some sugar water and feed it to him.
