Chapter 610 The Emperor finally said those three words, taking the baby to find grandma
When the queen heard that someone could cure the emperor, she said impatiently, "Who? As long as you can cure the emperor, you can get any reward you want."
Doctor Wen Yu said, "Your Majesty, the person who has the ability to cure the Emperor is the Crown Princess."
The queen was surprised when she heard this, "Crown Princess? She knows medicine?"
Doctor Wen Yu said, "Yes, Your Majesty."
Although the Queen was somewhat surprised that the Crown Princess knew medical skills, Doctor Wen Yu was not the kind of person who would talk nonsense.
"It's just that the Crown Princess went out with the Imperial Master yesterday and won't be back until tomorrow. The Crown Prince has to go out of the palace for something and won't be back for three days."
The queen looked at the emperor lying on the bed, her face slightly flushed. That was caused by a high fever. If the high fever continued, the person would not be able to bear it.
She looked at Doctor Wen Yu and asked, "Is there no way to reduce the fever?"
Doctor Wen Yu thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty, there is a way to reduce the fever, but it is an acute medicine and is harmful to the body. I do not recommend it."
When the empress heard that it was harmful to the body, she naturally did not dare to give it to the emperor and had to give up.
Doctor Wen Yu wrote out a prescription and prepared the medicine, which the eunuch had to boil.
When it was ready, Eunuch Li brought it in.
"Your Majesty, the medicine is ready."
The empress sat by the bed, guarding the emperor closely. When she saw the medicine coming, she stood up and woke the emperor up, "Your Majesty, the medicine is ready."
The emperor was running a high fever and felt dizzy. He heard someone calling him, but it sounded unreal, as if he were in a dream.
"Your Majesty? Your Majesty, wake up."
After a long while, the emperor seemed to hear the queen training him, and he slowly opened his eyes. Everything in front of him was blurry, and he could only see shadows swaying.
When the empress saw the emperor open his eyes, she took the medicine from Eunuch Li and stirred it with a spoon so that it would cool down faster.
"Your Majesty, the medicine is ready. I will feed you."
The emperor stared at the figure for a long time, and the facial features gradually became clear. It was a familiar face. Although he was old, he still had the charm.
But why did the Queen speak to him in such a gentle tone?
Is this a dream?
As the emperor was thinking, the empress fed the medicine to his lips. The thick black liquid was still steaming and even tasted bitter. He instinctively closed his mouth.
The empress thought the emperor had a fever and was confused, so she gently reminded him, "Your Majesty, take your medicine."
The voice was even gentler than before, making the emperor even more certain that he was dreaming.
He turned his head away from the spoon in his mouth, "No, it's bitter."
Under normal circumstances, the queen would have thrown away the spoon and fed the baby herself, which was really shameless.
But now the emperor is seriously ill, how can the queen bear to be cruel to him?
"I asked someone to prepare candied fruit for me. After I drink the medicine, I can hold the candied fruit in my mouth so that it won't be bitter."
The Queen's words were so gentle that the Emperor found it hard to refuse. He turned his head, opened his mouth obediently, and swallowed the medicine in the spoon.
As soon as I took a bite, I couldn't help but frown, "It's too bitter."
The queen took a look at the thick black medicine and knew it was bitter just by smelling it. It is said that a short pain is worse than a long one.
"Then I will help Your Majesty sit up and drink it all in one breath. This way you will suffer less."
The emperor nodded, and with the help of the empress and eunuch Li, he sat up. His body was limp and weak, and all his weight was leaning on the empress.
The queen held the medicine bowl to the emperor's mouth and said in a gentle voice, "Your Majesty, drink it all in one gulp."
The emperor frowned, opened his mouth and drank the medicine, almost forcing himself to suppress the urge to vomit, and finished it in one gulp.
After the emperor finished drinking, the empress used her handkerchief to wipe the medicine that flowed out of his mouth before he could swallow it.
She ordered, "Bring the preserves."
Eunuch Li held the candied fruit in both hands and handed it to the empress.
When the emperor put the candied fruit in his mouth, it still tasted bitter.
The emperor then realized that bitter medicine would be of little use even if one held candied honey in one's mouth. In the past, he even persuaded the empress to hold candied honey in one's mouth while taking the medicine so that it would not be bitter.
I also suddenly realized that when a person is already disappointed, no matter how many nice words you say to him, it will be of no use.
Over the years, he has always known that the Queen minded, but he was in a high position and there was nothing he could do about it.
When the situation is unstable, he must stabilize the court and appease the harem.
"A-Ling."
The empress was stunned for a moment when she heard the nickname. The emperor would only call her by her nickname when no one was around, so she was afraid that he might have forgotten it now.
"I am here."
After waiting for a while, seeing that the emperor did not respond, she thought he was asleep, so she put him back to the bed and pulled the quilt over him. Then she heard the emperor say, "A-Ling, I'm sorry."
The queen paused while covering herself with the quilt. If it wasn't for that? The three words were so clear that she even suspected she was deaf.
The emperor actually said sorry to her?
Eunuch Li at the side also heard it, but he couldn't hear it as clearly as the empress. He thought he must have heard it wrong, so he walked out with the medicine bowl in his hand.
The queen saw that the emperor had closed his eyes and had just taken the medicine, so he fell asleep easily.
She covered herself with the quilt and continued to sit aside waiting.
At night, the queen, who had not slept for a whole day and night, could no longer bear it. She looked at the emperor lying on the bed, stood up and began to undress.
After a while, she took off her gorgeous clothes, then lifted the quilt and lay down beside the emperor.
For so many years, she has never stayed overnight in the Yangxin Palace. The emperor has mentioned it several times, but she just won't stay overnight in the Yangxin Palace.
So over the years, it was always the emperor who went to her Fengyi Palace.
Thinking about her temper over the years, she really had a bad temper and would get angry at the emperor after just a few words.
It's even worse in the past two years, we often lock the door and don't let him in.
He is the king of a country, has been a favored child since childhood, and is a person who cares about his reputation.
She never gave him face and made him wait outside in vain.
The queen sighed, and seeing that the emperor's face was no better than before, she said, "When you recover from your illness, I will never hurt you again."
The next morning, Feng Wuyou and the two babies returned with their father. As soon as they got back to the East Palace, the two little guys couldn't wait to find Tigrex and Dabai to play.
"Dad, aren't you in a hurry at all?"
Jun Moqing asked: "What are you anxious about?"
Feng Wuyou explained, "It's been several days and there's been no news from her. Are you afraid you won't see her again?"
Jun Moqing finally understood what his daughter meant. He was naturally anxious, fearing that if he missed this opportunity he would not have the chance to confirm if it was her.
"There's no rush for this."
Feng Wuyou nodded in agreement, "Yeah, it's been so many years, I don't care about this moment, it's fate, we will meet naturally when the time comes."
At this time, Eunuch Li came in trotting. Seeing Feng Wuyou, he didn't even have time to catch his breath and said, "Crown Princess, you are finally back. The emperor is seriously ill and Doctor Yu is helpless. Doctor Wen Yu said that the Crown Princess has a way to cure him. Is that true?"
Feng Wuyou was a little shocked when he heard this. His father was fine before leaving the palace, so how could he suddenly fall ill?
"Take me there first."
As soon as Eunuch Li heard this, he knew that the Crown Princess had a solution.
"well."
Feng Wuyou turned to Chunxi and said, "Go and bring my medicine box over."
"Yes, the master." Chunxi said and turned around and ran into the bedroom.
Feng Wuyou followed quickly, holding up the hem of her skirt.
When they arrived at Yangxin Palace, Eunuch Li came in first, "Your Majesty, the Crown Princess is here."
Upon hearing this, the queen immediately stood up and asked, "Where is the person?"
Feng Wuyou strode in with her skirt lifted. When she saw the empress, she saw dark circles under her eyes and her eyes were bloodshot, which was obviously due to her not sleeping well.
She walked over and said, "Mother, I am here."
The Queen held onto Feng Wuyou's hand as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw. "I heard from Doctor Wen Yu that you know medical skills, right? Come and take a look at the Emperor. He has had a high fever for two days."
Feng Wuyou had never seen the empress so anxious before, so she said, "Let me check father's pulse first."
The queen nodded, "Okay."
After Feng Wuyou sat down on the chair, she lifted the quilt, took the emperor's hand out and found it was very hot. She examined him with confusion.
The queen stood aside, staring at the emperor intently. At this moment, she was extremely anxious.
After Feng Wuyou finished taking the pulse, the Queen couldn't wait to ask, "Crown Princess, what's wrong? Is there any way to reduce the fever?"
Feng Wuyou said, "Mother, your father has been overworked day and night, and the poison has accumulated over time, so he is bedridden and has a high fever. I will prescribe some medicine, and your father will be able to get rid of the fever after drinking it."
The queen heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this, and then asked, "What kind of poison?"
Feng Wuyou explained, "Toxins come from daily necessities and daily diet. Over time, the body can no longer bear the toxins. This is why I have to pay more attention to my father's diet and daily necessities in the future."
The Queen had been in the palace for so many years and had witnessed countless palace struggles, big and small, so she immediately understood what Feng Wuyou meant.
"I understand. I will investigate this matter."
Chunxi ran in carrying a medicine box. When she got to the medicine box, Chunxi had already opened it.
She took out the herbs and started to make a prescription. When she was done, she handed it to Chunxi and said, "Use it to boil the medicine. Use pure water."
Pure water is the code name she gave to spiritual spring water. The water used by her, the prince, and the babies in the Eastern Palace is all spiritual spring water, so Chunxi knows what pure water is.
"Got it, master." Chunxi ran out without stopping with the medicine.
Feng Wuyou looked at the empress and saw the heavy dark circles under her eyes. Older people should not stay up late. Staying up late will make them in a bad mental state and make them look several years older than usual.
"Mother, you haven't rested well these past two days. Why don't you go and rest for a while?"
The queen looked at the emperor on the bed with worry, "How can I sleep here? I will go to rest after the emperor's fever subsides."
Feng Wuyou also looked at her father lying on the bed. If Xiao Jinyan was like this, she would not be able to sleep peacefully either, so she could understand her mother's mood at this moment.
She reminded him, "Then mother, please eat something first. Only when you are full will you have the strength to wait. Boiling the medicine won't heal you in a short time."
The Queen nodded in agreement, "What the Crown Princess said makes sense. I will go to eat now."
When the empress went to have her meal, Feng Wuyou looked around curiously while watching the emperor. She sniffed and found a faint fragrance. However, it had been so long that the smell had become so weak that it was almost insignificant. If it weren't for her sensitive nose, she would not have been able to smell it.
When Chunxi brought the boiled medicine, the queen volunteered, "I will feed it to her."
Chunxi handed the medicine to the empress and then stepped aside.
By this time the emperor had fallen into a coma. No matter how the empress called out to him, it was useless. She could only feed herself.
Eunuch Li had been serving the emperor. He stood by to help and it took him a long time to feed the medicine into the emperor's mouth, while he also sprinkled half of it.
After the emperor finished drinking the medicine, the empress wiped the medicine on his lips with a handkerchief, and asked Feng Wuyou, "When will the emperor wake up?"
Feng Wuyou said, "It will take at least an hour, but it is possible that I can sleep until tonight or early tomorrow morning, but the fever will subside soon."
The queen breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good. As long as the burning has subsided, it will be fine. Otherwise, if it keeps burning like this, even the smartest person will be burned stupid."
Feng Wuyou almost couldn't hold back his laughter when he heard this. His mother was still as straightforward as ever.
Especially in front of the emperor.
The queen stayed by the emperor's side the whole time, and would reach out and touch his forehead every once in a while. She only breathed a sigh of relief when the fever subsided.
After the emperor's fever subsided, the empress got up to rest, and Eunuch Li served the emperor personally.
The next day, the emperor woke up and stared at the ceiling for a while. He rubbed his forehead which was aching slightly.
The queen was relieved when she saw the emperor wake up. "The emperor is awake."
The emperor slowly sat up with the help of the empress, "Well, how long have I slept?"
The emperor just woke up and spoke in a hoarse voice.
The Queen said, "The Emperor fell asleep after drinking the medicine the day before yesterday. Yesterday, the Crown Princess came back to examine the Emperor and prescribed medicine. I fed you the medicine, and you have been drinking it ever since."
The emperor was somewhat surprised, "The Crown Princess can also treat illnesses?"
The Queen said in the same surprised tone: "Well, I am also surprised. The Emperor had a high fever and it wouldn't go away after drinking the Crown Princess' medicine."
The emperor smiled and said, "I didn't realize that the Crown Princess's medical skills are so amazing."
The Queen thought of the Crown Princess' words and repeated them again, "Your Majesty should investigate this matter carefully."
The emperor's face darkened after hearing this. "I will thoroughly investigate this matter."
The Queen said, "Your Majesty, please have your meal first. You haven't had a good meal in the past two days."
"Yeah." The emperor was extremely hungry at the moment, his limbs felt weak, and if he didn't eat, he wouldn't even have the strength to walk.
Xiao Jinyan returned to the palace two days later. He went to visit the emperor when he learned that he was ill. When he returned, he brought twice as many memorials as usual.
Feng Wuyou has long returned to her old life, where she only eats and sleeps. Her two children, one is a greedy eater and the other loves to study, neither of them pesters her for a hug, so her life is very leisurely.
Except mom hasn't been found yet.
Jun Moqing was free and saw Susu lying on Dabai. He thought that she had such a good relationship with that woman, so why not take Susu out of the palace for a walk?
Jun Moqing has always been a man of action. After putting down the teacup, he stood up, squatted in front of Susu, and asked in a gentle voice: "Susu, are you going to leave the palace?"
When Susu heard about leaving the palace, she immediately hugged Jun Moqing's neck excitedly, "Grandpa, let's go out of the palace to buy some fruit."
"Okay." Jun Moqing picked up Susu and told Xue Huai to prepare the carriage.
On the bustling Chang'an Street, Jun Moqing brought Susu to the bakery.
Susu has been here several times, and her little fingers are familiar with several kinds of pastries. "I want this, this, and that."
