Imperial Physician Wen said, "Replying to the Queen, 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?"
Imperial Physician Wen said, "Yes, Your Majesty."
Although the Queen was somewhat shocked that the Crown Princess knew medical skills, Imperial Physician Wen 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 also been out of the palace for something and won't be back until three days later."
The queen looked at the emperor lying on the bed, her face slightly flushed. That was caused by the high fever. If the high fever continued, people would not be able to bear it.
She looked at Doctor Wen, "Is there no way to reduce the fever?"
Imperial Physician Wen 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 queen heard that it was harmful to the body, she naturally did not dare to give it to the emperor rashly, so she had to give up.
Imperial Physician Wen wrote out a prescription, prepared the medicine, and asked the eunuch to boil it.
When it was ready, Eunuch Li brought it in.
"Empress, the medicine is ready."
The queen sat by the bed and watched over the emperor. When she saw the medicine coming, she stood up and woke the emperor up, "Your Majesty, the medicine is ready."
The emperor had a high fever and felt dizzy. When he heard someone calling him, it sounded like a dream and was not clear.
"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 Queen 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 charm.
But why did the queen speak to him in such a gentle tone? Was he dreaming?
As the emperor was thinking, the queen fed the medicine to his lips. The thick black liquid was still steaming and even smelled bitter. He instinctively closed his mouth.
The queen thought the emperor had a fever and was confused, so she reminded him gently, "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 next to 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 arrogant.
But now the emperor is seriously ill, how can the queen bear to be so cruel to him?
"I have asked someone to prepare candied fruit. After you drink the medicine, you can hold the candied fruit in your mouth so that it won't be bitter."
The queen spoke so gently that the emperor found it difficult to refuse. He turned his head, opened his mouth obediently, and swallowed the medicine in the spoon.
As soon as I ate it, 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, so that you can suffer less."
The emperor nodded, and with the help of the empress and Eunuch Li, he sat up. His body was soft and weak, and all his weight was leaning on the empress.
The queen held the medicine bowl to the emperor's lips and said in a gentle voice, "Your Majesty, drink it all in one breath."
The emperor frowned, opened his mouth and drank the medicine, almost forcing himself to suppress the urge to vomit, and drank it all in one breath.
After the emperor finished drinking, the queen used a handkerchief to wipe the medicine that flowed out of his mouth before he could swallow it.
She ordered, "Bring the candied fruit."
Eunuch Li held the candied fruit in both hands and handed it to the queen.
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 you held candied fruit in your mouth. In the past, he had coaxed the empress into holding candied fruit in her mouth when taking medicine so that it would not be bitter.
I also suddenly realized that when a person is disappointed, no matter how many nice words you say, it will not help.
Over the years, he had always known that the Queen minded, but he could do nothing about it as he was in a high position.
When the situation is unstable, he must stabilize the court and appease the harem.
"A-Ling."
When the empress heard her maiden name, she was stunned for a moment. The emperor would only call her by her maiden name when no one was around. He must have been confused by the fever.
"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 weren't for that, the three words were so clear that she even suspected that she was deaf.
The emperor actually said sorry to her?
Eunuch Li standing by also heard it, but not as clearly as the Queen. 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 there waiting.
At night, the queen, who had not slept for a day and a night, could no longer hold on. 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 has been worse in the past two years, and we often close the door and don't let him in.
He is the king of a country, a favored child since childhood, and a person who cares about his reputation.
She always refused to give 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 be cruel to you again."
The next morning, Feng Wuyou and her two babies came back with their father. As soon as they returned to the East Palace, the two little guys couldn't wait to find the tiger-lion beast and Dabai to play.
"Dad, aren't you in a hurry at all?"
Jun Moqing asked: "What are you in a hurry for?"
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 of course 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, "Yes, 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 trotting in. 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 the imperial physician is helpless. Imperial Physician Wen said that the Crown Princess has a way to treat him. Is that true?"
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 and ran into the bedroom.
Feng Wuyou followed quickly, lifting her skirt.
When they arrived at the Yangxin Palace, Eunuch Li came in first, "Empress, 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 up. When she saw the queen, she saw dark circles under her eyes and her eyes were very red and 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 Imperial Physician Wen 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 queen 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 felt his pulse with doubt.
The queen stood aside, staring at the emperor intently. At this moment, she was extremely anxious.
After Feng Wuyou finished taking her pulse, the Queen couldn't wait to ask, "Crown Princess, how is it? Is there any way to reduce the fever?"
Feng Wuyou said, "Mother, father has been overworked day and night, and the toxins have accumulated over time, so he is bedridden and has a high fever. I will prescribe some medicine for you, and your father's fever will go away after you drink it."
The queen heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this, and then asked, "What kind of poison?"
Feng Wuyou explained: "The toxins come from daily necessities and daily diet. Over time, the body can no longer bear it. This is why I have to pay more attention to my father's diet and supplies in the future."
The Queen had been in the palace for so many years and had witnessed countless palace fights, big and small, so she immediately understood what Feng Wuyou meant.
"I understand. I will investigate this matter."
Chunxi ran in with a medicine box. When she arrived in front of the medicine box, Chunxi had already opened it.
She took out the herbs and began to make a prescription. When she was done, she handed it to Chunxi and said, "Use it to boil the medicine. Use purified water."
Purified 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 purified water is.
"Got it, master." Chunxi ran out without stopping with the medicine.
Feng Wuyou looked at the queen and saw the heavy dark circles under her eyes. The elderly 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 had a good rest in the 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? 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, so she could understand her mother's mood at the 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 in a short time."
The Queen nodded in agreement, "What the Crown Princess said makes sense. I will go to eat now."
The Queen went to eat. 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 not noticeable. 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 and said, "I will feed it to her."
Chunxi handed the medicine to the queen and then stepped aside.
At this time, the emperor had fallen into a coma. No matter how the queen called 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, and he spilled half of it.
After the emperor finished drinking the medicine, the queen 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 you can sleep until the evening or early tomorrow morning, but the fever will subside soon."
The queen breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good. As long as the fever subsides, it will be fine. Otherwise, if it continues like this, even the smartest person will become stupid."
Feng Wuyou almost couldn't help laughing when he heard this. His mother was still the same as always, speaking very directly.
Especially in front of the emperor.
The queen stayed by the emperor's side all the 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.
Only after the emperor's fever subsided did the empress get 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 queen, "Well, how long did I sleep?"
The emperor, who had just woken up, had a very hoarse voice.
The Queen said, "The Emperor fell asleep after drinking the medicine the day before yesterday. Yesterday, the Crown Princess came back to check the Emperor's pulse and prescribed medicine. I fed you the medicine, and it has been going on until now."
The emperor was a little surprised, "The Crown Princess can also treat illnesses?"
The Queen said in an equally surprised tone, "Well, I am also surprised. The Emperor had a high fever for a long time, but after drinking the Crown Princess's medicine, the fever subsided in a short while."
The emperor smiled and said, "I didn't realize that the Crown Princess's medical skills are so great."
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 very hungry at the moment, his limbs were weak. 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 came back, he brought twice as many memorials as usual.
Feng Wuyou had long returned to her previous life, where she only ate and slept. Her two children, one was a greedy eater and the other loved to study, and they didn't pester her for hugs, so her life was very leisurely.
Except mom hasn't been found yet.
Jun Moqing was bored and saw Susu lying on Dabai. He thought that she and that woman were so destined to each other, 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, do you want 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 took Susu to the pastry shop.
Susu has been here several times. Her little fingers are skilled at making several kinds of pastries. "I want this, this, and that."
