Chapter 784 A Basin of Cold Water



"But I'm already here, and I want to hear the results of Xiao Chuer's diagnosis on you!" Shao Lecheng hesitated.

"It's not very convenient for men to enter here..." Duan Gouqiong looked embarrassed. Shao Lecheng finally understood at this moment, and then said helplessly: "Okay, I'll go back now, and you remember to go back early too!"

Duan Gouqiong nodded vigorously, and then Shao Lecheng walked away.

Zou Yangyao followed silently and when he got close, he dodged on his own, so when Shao Lecheng walked away just now, he didn't see him.

Zou Yangyao watched Duan Gouqiong enter a palace and quickly followed.

When they got to the room, Duan Gouqiong said to the people inside: "Xiao Chu'er, I heard that you live here? I am Duan Gouqiong, come here and take my pulse!"

Afterwards, he heard faint voices coming from the room, but Zou Yangyao couldn't hear clearly what was said as he was standing outside the door.

It wasn't until Duan Gouqiong walked out of the room that Zou Yangyao excitedly and nervously walked forward and knocked on the door: "Chu'er."

He called out, his voice very gentle.

The people in the room seemed to be unable to hear what Zou Yangyao said and did not respond. Zou Yangyao was a little surprised, and then tried to push the door open and enter.

The door was pushed open and someone walked in. He continued to call out strangely, "Chu'er?"

He originally thought that someone inside would run over and respond sweetly, or even throw themselves into his arms, but he didn't expect that the person who came out was a stranger.

Zou Yangyao's expression changed, "You are not Chu'er!"

The other party said with a cold and arrogant look: "General Zou mistakenly believed that I was Xiao Chuer. I never said that I was Xiao Chuer myself!"

Zou Yangyao was a little annoyed and turned to leave, but the other party said coldly: "Don't you want to see Xiao Chuer? Are you leaving now?"

As expected, Zou Yangyao paused in his steps as he was walking out, and he looked at the woman behind him with displeasure.

During the meal, Ni Yueshan and Jing Yuchen both drank a little wine. As for the occasional glances from others, they pretended not to notice.

At this time, Jing Yuchen stood up and took the initiative to speak: "Queen Dowager, the arrangement of the plague festival must be set on the day when the Prime Minister is outside the city and asks the children to read out the prescription."

"As for the specific matters and the official positions you would like to establish, I would like to say that the people who organize the activities are there to organize and promote them, and the festival is set by the court. In the future, the people will naturally take the initiative to stand up and commemorate together!"

"Whether or not you have real power isn't the key. As long as you have good enough literary talent and can write some propaganda topics that can better motivate everyone, that's enough!"

The people present thought that Jing Yuchen had made such a request in order to gain benefits, but it turned out not to be the case.

Many people present began to whisper.

Jing Yuchen curled his lips and looked at Miao Qinghua: "Empress Dowager, this humble official pays tribute to you!"

Although Miao Qinghua was the Empress Dowager, she was not old. She smiled slightly and said, "Your Majesty is fortunate to have someone like you as a regent under your command! I will drink this glass of wine on your behalf!"

Miao Qinghua did not stick to any rules and drank the wine generously, which was equivalent to agreeing with what Jing Yuchen had just said.

During the banquet, someone curiously asked, "When did General Zou leave his seat? And the Princess and the Prince have been gone for so long. Could there really be something wrong with their health?"

Ni Yueshan turned to look and said to Jing Yuchen, "Is he secretly looking for Chu'er? Go and look for him quickly, don't let anything happen to him!"

Jing Yuchen nodded: "Okay."

He then stood up somewhat shakily: "Your Majesty, I have to go to the bathroom urgently. I need to leave for a moment!"

As he spoke, he headed in one direction.

After Jing Yuchen left, Miao Qinghua sighed, "It seems that today's wine is a bit strong!"

After Jing Yuchen left, his body was staggering, but he didn't expect that not long after he left, a basin of cold water was poured on him, and he sobered up a little. Immediately, a palace maid knelt on the ground and kowtowed to confess his guilt.

"I deserve to die. I didn't know the Regent would pass by here. I didn't dare to splash water casually in the past, thinking that the masters were all at the banquet and no one would pass by. I deserve to die. I know I was wrong. Please spare my life, Regent!"

The palace maid knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly begging for mercy. She seemed to be deeply aware of her mistakes. Jing Yuchen looked at her coldly. At this moment, no matter who it was, they would feel unhappy, right?

The palace maid raised her head and said, "Prince Regent, I can take you to change your clothes."

Jing Yuchen looked at the soaked clothes in front of him and naturally couldn't continue wearing them. He immediately said, "Why would the palace have casual clothes for men?"

The palace maid replied politely, "There are guards in the palace, and many palace maids need to wear clothes outside the palace when they go out. We have all kinds of clothes."

Not hearing Jing Yuchen say anything, the palace maid quickly said, "I know that the prince may not even like these clothes, but this is all I know!"

Jing Yuchen didn't refuse and nodded: "Take me to find some clothes to change into!"

The maid seemed relieved and immediately responded, "Yes, please ask the Regent to follow me!"

The maid led the way, and Jing Yuchen followed behind until they reached the door of a room. "Your Highness, please go in and wait. I'll go find you something made of fine material that you haven't worn before! If you're willing, I can also ask someone to bring you some hot water for you to wash."

"That's great!"

After getting Jing Yuchen's permission, the palace maid bowed and left.

Jing Yuchen turned his head to look at the small room next to him, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and then reached out to push the door open.
