Chapter 97 The Fairy Who Drinks Dew
"Shu'er, are you awake? Shu'er, the emperor's good granddaughter..."
When Emperor Yongping saw Chu Qinshu wake up, he almost cried with joy.
“Oh, oh.”
[Your Majesty, Shu'er has woken up. Don't worry, Your Majesty. Shu'er will be fine. Shu'er just...forgot the time she woke up.]
Chu Qinshu blamed herself endlessly.
She wanted to explain.
But she couldn't express it in words. She could only wave her hands and lean her head hard into Emperor Yongping's arms.
This was the scene that the Imperial Physician saw when he was carried into Yu's study by the eunuch.
He immediately wanted to roll his eyes.
Who wouldn't want to roll their eyes if they weren't trusted by the master they had followed for decades?
"Your Majesty, this old minister..."
The old doctor, who was almost seventy years old, was carried on the back and jogged along the bumpy road.
When I was kneeling on the ground, I was still breathing hard.
"Quick, come and check on Anping. She has slept for three hours and four quarters. If you still can't figure out what's going on, I will not forgive you."
Although Chu Qinshu woke up, Emperor Yongping was still worried.
"Well, I will take the pulse of the young princess."
The Chief Imperial Physician did not dare to roll his eyes, but was determined to convince Emperor Yongping this time to avoid wasting his old bones.
"how?"
Emperor Yongping saw him taking Chu Qinshu's pulse three times.
The expression on his face was surprise and confusion at one moment.
His heart also rose to his throat.
"In reply to the emperor, the little princess... the little princess is sleeping soundly."
The imperial physician withdrew his hand, looked through Chu Qinshu's pulse records from the past few days, and pondered for a moment before speaking.
"What is the state of birth and growth?"
It was the first time that Emperor Yongping heard this new word and he was a little confused.
"In reply to Your Majesty, the so-called growth sleep is the sleep of physical growth. Babies grow in their sleep. The more they sleep, the better they grow."
The imperial physician took Chu Qinshu's pulse and found that her pulse was stronger than when she took it at noon, and her qi and blood were more sufficient.
This is consistent with the growth pulse pattern recorded in medical books, so we can conclude that she is growing while she sleeps.
The imperial physician would come in person every day to check her and Emperor Yongping's pulse.
Just compare the pulse records and you will find the difference.
"But is it really okay for her to sleep for so long?"
Emperor Yongping did not want to believe what the Imperial Physician said, but he could not refute it.
"In reply to the emperor, the little princess slept for a long time this time, but there is nothing wrong with her other than that."
The Imperial Physician repeatedly considered Chu Qinshu's pulse, and he could not come to any other conclusion except this one.
"Can......"
"Oh, oh."
[Your Majesty, Shu'er is fine. I just forgot the time when I was reciting...]
Emperor Yongping wanted to continue asking, but Chu Qinshu spoke up.
The days and nights pass silently on the ancient tree.
When she was tired, she took a nap; when she was thirsty, she drank a few drops of dew from the leaves. Later, she climbed a few more branches.
Although I didn't feel tired, I didn't feel like I had grown any bigger either.
However, if the Imperial Physician's words could comfort Emperor Yongping, she would not destroy his platform.
"Master, there is only an ancient tree and an ancient well in the yard.
Where do you think the roots of the ancient tree absorb water? And does the dew on its leaves contain spiritual spring water?"
The little gourd has been paying attention to the movements outside in the space.
Afraid that its owner would get into trouble and end up in trouble.
[Are you saying that the dew I drank can really make me grow taller? ]
Chu Qinshu looked confused. Is space so magical?
Even the dew is different from that outside?
"Yes, it is true. After all, it doesn't rain in space, and the ancient trees rely entirely on dew for nutrients."
The little gourd takes its duty of answering questions and resolving doubts for its owner seriously.
[No wonder the Imperial Physician said I was sleeping like a baby. It seems he was right.]
Chu Qinshu suddenly realized that the imperial physician was indeed an experienced old doctor and she had just misunderstood him.
“Ahh.”
[Your Majesty, the Imperial Physician is right. Shu'er grows while she sleeps.]
Chu Qinshu found out the reason and immediately spoke up for the imperial physician.
"Oh, Shu'er, do you mean that the Imperial Physician is right?"
It wasn't that Emperor Yongping didn't trust the Chief Physician, but it was the first time for him to personally take care of such a young baby, and he felt unsure.
Now that his granddaughter explained it in person, he finally felt relieved.
However, he did not miss the point of his granddaughter's words.
Drink dew, grow taller...
It's indeed something a fairy would do.
But since the fairy drinks dew, why does she have a recipe?
“Oh.”
[Yes, Your Majesty, please let the Imperial Physician go back and rest. He is too old to endure the hardships. Unlike you, Your Majesty, you are young and strong and in good health. You can live another 500 years.]
It's your own fault, so you should just flatter and muddle through.
But we must not implicate the Imperial Physician again.
She will learn from her experience and lessons in the future, and never stay in the space ancient tree all day long.
"Hahahaha, Shu'er is right."
Emperor Yongping was anxious and angry just a moment ago, but now his face was all smiles, making everyone present look convinced.
She is worthy of being the only little princess in two generations of the royal family!
It’s really amazing.
They worked hard for a long time, but it was not as effective as her speaking a few words in baby language that no one could understand.
"Thank you for your hard work, Imperial Physician. Go back and rest early."
Emperor Yongping was pleased with his granddaughter's words and immediately decided not to make things difficult for the Imperial Physician.
He did not expect to live another 500 years. He would be content as long as he could live until his granddaughter grew up.
"Thank you for your consideration, Your Majesty. I will come again tomorrow to check the pulse of Your Majesty and the little princess. I will take my leave now."
The imperial physician bowed and felt relieved.
Has he... convinced the emperor?
"Well, you guys should take the imperial physician back, and go slowly."
Emperor Yongping waved his hand cheerfully, and the Imperial Physician did not forget to express his gratitude again before respectfully leaving Yu's study.
"Shu'er, are you hungry? After the emperor feeds you milk, I will let Lin Fu take you back to the East Palace to continue sleeping."
Emperor Yongping thought it was a good thing that his granddaughter could drink dew while sleeping to help her grow.
So, he decided to encourage her to sleep more, because sleeping more would help her grow up faster.
I wonder how cute the little guy will be when he grows up and can run, jump and talk.
“Oh.”
[Yes, I am hungry. I want you to feed me milk.]
Chu Qinshu didn't know how to think yet, so she could only flutter her arms and legs to show that she was really hungry.
Emperor Yongping looked at her cute and lively appearance, his heart and eyes filled with love.
The night was dark and it was almost curfew.
Fu Ruhai and his wife and Fu Song were all waiting quietly in the main hall.
Fu Ronger was accused of disrespecting the royal family by Concubine Xian because she went back to her parents' home without permission.
They also sent a burly old maid to forcibly take her back to Prince Huai's palace and put her under house arrest.
The crime of disrespecting the royal family can be serious or minor, and Concubine Xian is clearly trying to take control of the Fu family.
But the Fu family could do nothing about it.
"Song'er, you said that the emperor doesn't care about what Concubine Xian and Prince Ning did?"
After returning home from the palace, Mrs. Mo was filled with sorrow.
She almost choked to death when she heard Concubine Xian ask her to pay half of her family's fortune as dowry for a concubine.
But she couldn't break up with Concubine Xian.
I can only endure it, dare not refuse or agree.
