Chapter 80 You Can't Stay With Him
In fact, Fu Zhaoning also wanted to know this question.
She didn't know who made up this sentence. If anyone had made it up, there was no need to make it so absurd and abrupt. It would not stand up to scrutiny at all.
Moreover, if you really want to make up a story, instead of saying "Fu", wouldn't it be more direct to just say "Fu Zhaoning"?
Fu, what if the palace maid misheard it and it was another name?
Therefore, it is possible that what the Queen Mother shouted in her nightmare was true.
Fu Zhaoning herself was very curious, and she felt that Xiao Lanyuan also wanted to know.
"Your Majesty, this is a strange question. I've already said that I only met the Queen Mother once on the day of my wedding to Prince Jun. How could I know what the Queen Mother was thinking?"
Fu Zhaoning spread his hands and said, "The Queen Mother may not have called out the name Fu. Maybe the maid heard it wrong?"
"Where is that palace maid?" Xiao Lanyuan asked.
"Call the palace maid Baoyue." The emperor might have known that Prince Jun would definitely want to see the palace maid after entering the palace, so he had already asked her to wait.
"Your Majesty, can you please ask these unimportant people to leave first? Are they listening to the opera here?" Xiao Lanyuan glanced at the concubines.
The concubines all looked unhappy.
The emperor waved his hand to let them go, only to feel that his face was also being stepped on.
Originally, it was the Queen's intention to let these concubines cooperate with her to step on Fu Zhaoning first. However, she failed in her attempt and was hit back by Prince Jun as soon as she used Fu Zhaoning's clothes to speak.
Keeping them here now really shows that he doesn't care about the Queen Mother.
The concubines retreated.
Fu Zhaoning sensed a resentful and jealous gaze and immediately looked over.
The concubine didn't expect that her senses were so sharp, and before she could look away, she was caught by Fu Zhaoning.
Her eyes subconsciously fell on Xiao Lanyuan, then she lowered her head and left in a hurry.
The concubine looked to be no more than twenty years old.
Fu Zhaoning did not miss the affection in her eyes when she looked at Xiao Lanyuan.
Could this be a woman who has a crush on Xiao Lanyuan?
The palace maid Baoyue came in quickly. When she came in, she didn't even dare to look at Prince Jun. She immediately knelt on the ground and said, "Your servant Baoyue greets Prince Jun."
Xiao Lanyuan couldn't bear to look at Fu Zhaoning and motioned her to ask questions.
"Baoyue, you said that the Queen Mother had a nightmare last night and called my name? How can you be sure that it was me that the Queen Mother called?"
Fu Zhaoning put on the airs of Princess Jun and asked in a deep voice.
This time, Baoyue looked up and glanced quickly at Fu Zhaoning.
When she raised her head, Fu Zhaoning also saw her appearance clearly. Baoyue was really beautiful, with an oval face, willow-shaped eyebrows, and cherry lips. She had the appearance of a genuine classical beauty, and her temperament was also dignified.
Maybe because he is someone close to the Queen Mother, he also appears calm and not so petty.
"Replying to Princess Jun, I heard the Queen Mother yell, 'Fu, I beg you.' At that time, the Queen Mother yelled so loudly and in such a panicked tone that I was startled and hurried over to ask her."
"I asked, 'Empress Dowager, what happened to you? Did you dream about someone?' The Empress Dowager replied, 'Fu, it was Fu.'"
"But after replying that sentence, the Queen Mother fell into a deep sleep again. Today, when she woke up, she asked me how many days it had been since Prince Jun got married, and whether he would bring Fu to the palace to pay his respects to me. But the Queen Mother did not get up to eat breakfast, and lay down again after getting up for a while. After a while, the Queen Mother said she felt uncomfortable, and when the imperial physician came, she was already unconscious."
Baoyue spoke very clearly, enunciating each word distinctly.
The emperor waited for her to finish speaking and looked at Fu Zhaoning.
"Fu, you should understand now, right? Because the Queen Mother did repeat that it was Fu. When she woke up today and mentioned whether A Yuan would bring you to the palace to pay respects, she was also talking about Fu. So, the Queen Mother was talking about you in her sleep."
"Even if it was Zhao Ning who was yelling," Xiao Lanyuan said coldly, "would you still punish her for a dream?"
The first time he called her name, Fu Zhaoning was stunned and looked at him.
"If it was just a dream, I certainly cannot punish Fu. Isn't it better to find out whether she did anything in private?" said the emperor.
"She said no, can the emperor be trusted?"
The emperor paused.
It was just a dream. It was impossible for him to cure Fu Zhaoning.
"Everything still needs to wait until the Queen Mother wakes up. You guys go see her first."
Baoyue led Xiao Lanyuan and Fu Zhaoning to the Queen Mother's bedroom.
As soon as he entered the door, Fu Zhaoning smelled a strong smell of medicine, mixed with several faint aromas. They were different aromas, intertwined together, and the smell seemed a bit strange and complex.
There are also two imperial doctors guarding the Queen Mother's residence.
Xiao Lanyuan approached the Queen Mother's bedside and saw her lying on the bed, her face pale, motionless, her breathing very low, and it seemed as if she would never wake up.
"Prince Jun, Princess Jun, the Queen Mother has not woken up yet..." The imperial physician mustered up the courage to step forward and said.
Fu Zhaoning looked at Xiao Lanyuan, "Can I see?"
"Look." Xiao Lanyuan nodded.
Fu Zhaoning was about to step forward to take the empress dowager's pulse.
Bao Yue was startled, and quickly came over and stretched out her hand to stop Fu Zhaoning, "Princess Jun, what are you doing?"
"Take the Queen Mother's pulse."
"The imperial physician is here, so there is no need for Princess Jun."
Fu Zhaoning pushed her away and then took the Queen Mother's pulse.
"Princess Jun."
"Shut up." Prince Jun glanced at Bao Yue coldly. "I allowed it. How can a maid like you stop me?"
Baoyue looked at him, whispered "I dare not", and stopped talking.
The two imperial doctors looked at each other, then looked at the emperor and empress who had just entered the palace, without saying a word.
"Fu, do you know medicine? Don't mess around!" The Queen scolded Fu Zhaoning when she saw that he was actually taking the Queen Mother's pulse.
Fu Zhaoning was about to withdraw his hand when the Queen Mother woke up at this moment, suddenly opened her eyes and saw Fu Zhaoning.
Her eyes suddenly widened and her expression changed, "Fu!"
This cry was indeed one of panic.
Fu Zhaoning always felt that the Queen Mother looked at her as if she was looking at someone else.
"Empress Dowager, I am Fu Zhaoning." She said immediately and clearly.
"Has the Queen Mother woken up?"
"Mother?"
Everyone present walked over quickly.
When the Queen Mother heard Fu Zhaoning's words, her heart was shocked. Then her eyes became clearer and she looked at other people, and her gaze fell on Xiao Lanyuan's face.
"A-A Yuan?"
"Are you suddenly ill?" Xiao Lanyuan asked calmly, "Just wake up."
The Queen Mother opened her mouth, looked at the Emperor and the Queen, then at Fu Zhaoning, her expression a little complicated.
"I'm fine, I just dreamed about Fu Lin. Maybe I can't accept that A Yuan married the daughter of his enemy." The Queen Mother grabbed Fu Zhaoning's hand, "When A Yuan was still young, it was your mother who poisoned him!"
No one expected that the Queen Mother would suddenly bring up this matter, and everyone in the room fell silent.
"I didn't know you were Fu Lin's daughter before, but now that I know, I can't let you stay with A Yuan."
