Chapter 98 Cuiwei Palace



Sure enough, what Li Hong was worried about happened. Bai Chun started to have a fever. After hearing the maid's report, Li Hong crawled out of the bed with sleepy eyes.

He liked sex, so he asked Xiaoxue to put a pajamas on him, and then he came to Bai Chun's room under the careful guidance of the maid.

Bai Chun did not change the quilt that had his footprints on it yesterday. Bai Chun curled up in the quilt, looking much smaller.

I pushed aside Bai Chun's beautiful hair and touched her jade-white forehead. It was indeed a little hot. It seemed that this was more than just a simple fever. My scolding yesterday might have become her inner demon.

Looking down at her delicate and beautiful cheeks, they were also red at this moment, and her brows were tightly furrowed, as if she had suffered a lot of grievances. Her red lips were a little chapped due to lack of water, and she made a dreamy sound from time to time.

Li Hong reached his hand into the quilt without saying a word and touched Bai Chun's body. His entire palm felt hot when it touched the smooth skin.

"Ask Xia Zhi to bring some towels and a bucket of ice water, and ask Ren Lao Ren Yuan for some alcohol." Li Hong said as he stood beside the bed and looked at Bai Chun who looked miserable.

Before the maid could run out, Xiaoxue hurriedly ran in and, according to Li Hong's instructions, laid the curled up Bai Chun flat.

Soon, Xia Zhi came with a maid, carrying a bucket of ice water and a dozen soft towels.

...

...

Li Hong is a germaphobe, so even eunuchs like Hua Meng and others are not allowed to enter the second floor or above of the building. So, after a while, another maid ran in with some alcohol.

Li Hong looked at Bai Chun again, who had a painful expression, and signaled Xia Zhi to soak the towel in the ice bucket, then wring it dry and give it to him.

Taking the towel from Xia Zhi's hand, Li Hong brushed aside Bai Chun's hair, and gently placed the neatly folded towel on Bai Chun's forehead, saying, "Watch carefully, and do it repeatedly as I say until her body is no longer hot."

The two maids stood on the other side of the bed, nodded timidly, then widened their beautiful eyes and watched without blinking as the prince applied ice to Bai Chun.

Li Hong then took out Bai Chun's two arms and applied an ice towel to each wrist in turn, and then to the two slender white calves, which Li Hong also applied with towels.

"If the towel becomes warm, change it immediately. Repeat this process over and over again. Do you understand?" Li Hong said calmly after putting the last towel on.

"Yes, Your Highness." The two maids said timidly.

Li Hong then returned to his room yawning, looked at the sky outside, and saw the sun gradually rising from the horizon. It rained all night and stopped quietly in the early morning.

Looking out through the window, the raindrops remaining on the branches, treetops and eaves were using up their last bit of strength to fall to the ground. The crystal clear raindrops hit the ground with a flash of little tails and instantly merged into the earth.

The entire Taiyi City, which had been washed by a night of heavy rain, slowly woke up in the early morning sunshine. The clean and moist stone road still had some small puddles, which were crystal clear and spotless.

Li Hong could almost smell the fresh world after the rain while standing in the room. The birds have begun singing on the branches, standing on the black branches soaked by rain, enjoying the fresher air.

In a daze, he was about to climb into bed for another nap when Xia Zhi called him at the door. It had been half an hour, and Bai Chun's forehead was still very hot. The ice compress obviously did not have a cooling effect, but it made Bai Chun feel less painful.

Li Hong sighed helplessly. It seemed that he had to do it himself for these stupid girls. He had taught them how to use alcohol to wipe the bodies of people with high fever to reduce fever, but now they became stupid at the critical moment.

Impatiently walking up to Xia Zhi, looking at the slightly embarrassed expression, Li Hong couldn't help but tap Xia Zhi's fair forehead: "How stupid!"

"Yes, this servant is stupid."

Li Hong, too lazy to pay attention to her, walked into Bai Chun's room again, stood in front of the bed and touched Bai Chun's forehead and body again. There was some effect, but not obvious. From Bai Chun's expression, one could tell that he was still in pain.

"Continue to apply ice to your forehead with the towel. Xiazhi, bring the alcohol over." Li Hong glanced at Bai Chun and had to help Bai Chun wipe his body himself.

To reduce fever, you can wipe the entire body, but the armpits and groin are the most important. (You all should know where the groin is, so I won’t explain it.) The heat in these two areas is difficult to dissipate, so wiping with some alcohol can help cool down the whole body.

Holding the cotton cloth dipped in alcohol, Li Hong stepped directly on the **, lifted Bai Chun's arm, and carefully wiped the armpit with alcohol.

Under the astonished expressions of Xia Zhi and others, Li Hong lifted the quilt from the side, slowly spread Bai Chun's legs apart, then wiped her groin with alcohol again, and then covered her with the quilt again.

"If the fever hasn't subsided, continue what I did just now. Prepare more hot water and let her drink more when she wakes up." Li Hong said and walked out again.

Today he planned to go to Cuiwei Palace, which was the royal ancestral rule. If he didn't go to Cuiwei Palace after arriving in Taiyi City, and the two people in Chang'an City found out, he would definitely be beaten again.

The emperor's grandfather died of illness in the Hanfeng Hall of Cuiwei Palace, so he had to go. According to the rules, he should go there with the crown prince's ceremonial guard, but Li Hong had already thought of a reason in his mind: Taiyi City is now a mixed crowd of good and bad people, and it is not appropriate for a son to travel with the guard.

Liebao, Jingzhe and Xiaoxue traveled with him. As for their own safety, "Shenhua" had made full preparations.

This time, people from all over the world gathered in Taiyi City. No matter "Myth" or "Jingwei", their energy was focused on the prince because of Li Hong's arrival.

Wufa, Wutan and the two leaders of Jingwei accompanied him. As for how many people were protecting him in secret, Li Hong was not in the mood to care about that.

Xia Zhi and a few others were left to take care of Bai Chun and help him deal with some things. He quickly finished his meal, took Xiaoxue and got on the carriage, heading towards Cuiwei Palace.

Cuiwei Palace was one of the royal palaces when the emperor was alive. Its importance is self-evident. Otherwise, he would not have died here despite his illness.

The scale of its building is naturally not to be underestimated. Hanfeng Hall is naturally the sleeping hall, and Cuiwei Hall is where court officials hold meetings. Naturally, there was also the prince's palace next to the Cuiwei Palace, which belonged to Li Hong's father at that time.

By the time of his father's generation, they seldom came here. They basically traveled between Luoyang and Chang'an, and would come here occasionally. But Li Hong had never been here once. As for the Prince's Palace, he just knew it existed.

But he didn't know that one time Li Zhi and Wu Mei came to Cuiwei Palace together, they looked at the Prince's Palace next to it and scolded Li Hong a lot.

After passing through Jinhua Gate, you have truly entered the territory of Cuiwei Palace. Looking at the palaces not far away, which are swept clean and dust-free, they still look brand new. It seems that they are renovated and repaired every year.

"Who are you? Get out. The royal palace is where you've been waiting for."

Just after entering Jinhua Gate and taking a few steps forward, four people jumped out in front of them, with swords on their waists. They looked at Li Hong and others with serious expressions and scolded them.

Liebao and Jingzhe had gloomy faces as they looked at the two people in front of them and were about to step forward, but Li Hong stopped them.

"Don't reveal your identity, go over and find out what's going on. It looks like someone has occupied this place." Li Hong said lightly where wisps of green smoke were rising.

"Yes, sir." Jingzhe and Liebao said respectfully, and then walked towards the four people in front.

"What are your names?" Li Hong asked after looking at the other person next to Wufawutian.

"To answer your question, my name is Fang Zhan and my name is Heng Qiao."

"Hmm, it seems that there are people living here, but I don't know who they are. Could they be from the royal family? But why don't I know?" Li Hong glanced at Jingzhe and Liebao, who were talking to the four people, and muttered to himself.

Li Hong paced back and forth on the steps several times, unable to understand how anyone could dare to live in this place. Normally, besides myself, only my father and my mother can live here, but there is not even a hair in front of the Jinhua Gate, so it definitely can't be my father and my mother! Who could be so bold? Or is his status so prominent that he is inferior to me?

"You two go in sneaking in and find out who is in there and what they are doing." Li Hong thought for a moment and said, but there was a hint of ruthlessness in his tone.

"Tell Jingzhe and Liebao that there is no need to bother them anymore. We can go up Cuiwei Mountain from other directions and see other scenery." Li Hong waved to Xiaoxue and asked her to tell Jingzhe and Liebao.

As soon as Xiaoxue left, Li Hong took a step forward and headed towards Jinhua Gate under the protection of Wufawutian.

Soon, the footsteps of Jingzhe and Liebao Hua Meng were heard from behind, and soon, the three of them arrived in front of Li Hong.

Jingzhe whispered, "Master, these people are very tight-lipped and refuse to speak. But..."

"But what? Tell me." Li Hong said impatiently.

He looked at Wufawutian and asked him if there were other paths. Wufawutian then hurriedly led the way and started climbing Cuiwei Mountain from other places.

"They said that people from the imperial palace live here and no one is allowed to trespass here, or they will be killed." Jingzhe seemed to feel his voice trembling.

"That's all? Is that all?" Li Hong stopped and asked.

"Yes, sir, it's gone."

"Royal? People from the royal family live here? Who the hell is more royal than me, actually moving in here when I don't even live here! Which temple is usually responsible for guarding Cuiwei Palace? Zongzheng Temple? Or Shaofujian?" Li Hong was filled with anger!
