Just now, Yu Shan said she was a little thirsty, so Yun Fang went to prepare tea and snacks. As she was walking back, she suddenly saw this scene, which startled Yun Fang so much that she immediately dropped the tray and ran to Yu Shan!
Unfortunately, she was too far away, and no matter how fast he ran, he couldn't catch up.
Just as she was getting anxious, she saw a man rushing over and leaping to protect Yu Shan. At the same time, the horse trampled over him and stepped on his arm!
Yunfang looked closely and realized it was Fu Qing!
The hard hooves were extremely powerful, and Fu Qing felt a piercing pain in his arm as he was trampled!
He groaned, gritting his teeth to endure the pain, and looked up at Yu Shan, asking with concern, "How are you? Are you hurt?"
Su Yushan was still in shock. It wasn't until she heard the voice that she realized it was Fu Qing. She said with heartfelt gratitude:
"I'm alright, thank you for saving me."
At this moment, the guards from afar arrived and went to subdue the wild horse.
Seeing that he was frowning and seemed to be in great pain, Su Yushan quickly asked him where he was injured.
Fu Qing thought she wasn't injured. He stood up, intending to help her up, but forgot that his arm was injured. With a slight tug, he hissed in pain.
"Your arm is injured?" Su Yushan didn't dare let him help her anymore. She forced herself to stand up despite the pain in her ankle.
At this moment, Yunfang also arrived, panting heavily, her heart in her throat.
"Your Highness, Lord Fu, are you alright?"
Su Yushan shook her head. "I'm fine, I just twisted my ankle, it's not serious. But Lord Fu's arm was trampled by the horse, we need to call the imperial physician for treatment immediately."
"My injury is not serious, Your Majesty. You have fallen, so please be careful not to harm the fetus. We should ask the imperial physician to take a look first!"
Fu Qing then summoned two eunuchs to escort Consort Chun back.
Before leaving, Su Yushan thanked him again.
Suppressing the turmoil in his heart, Fu Qing said solemnly, "Protecting Your Majesty's safety is my duty. Your Majesty need not be so polite."
Yu Shan sprained her ankle, and Yun Fang was worried that walking back like this would worsen her injury, so she helped her to a stool to the side, then had a palanquin carried over, and ordered someone to report the matter to the Emperor.
Yu Shan, however, did not want to make such a fuss. "Let's wait until the imperial physician makes the diagnosis before we talk about it. If there is nothing serious, there is no need to tell him, so as not to delay his affairs of state."
“His Majesty will surely say that while politics are important, you, my beloved consort, are even more important!” Yunfang mimicked the Emperor’s tone, which amused Yushan and made her temporarily forget the pain in her ankle.
Seeing that something seemed to be going on in the distance, Rong Yu immediately turned his horse around and galloped back.
Upon learning that her mother had been startled by the horse and fallen, Rong Yu was very worried and secretly prayed that her mother and baby would be safe and healthy.
The palanquin was quickly brought over, and Su Yushan rode in it back to the yurt. A quarter of an hour later, the imperial physician came to examine her.
At that time, Emperor Hongli was summoning his ministers, and Li Yu was guarding outside when a eunuch came to report that Consort Chun had been injured.
At this moment, Li Yu should not have disturbed the Emperor, but it was Consort Chun who was injured! If he did not report it in time, and the Emperor blamed him, he would be in trouble!
Considering the consequences, Li Yu dared not delay and decided to go in and whisper the message to someone.
Upon hearing this, Hongli frowned and immediately stood up, saying that he had important matters to attend to and ordered his ministers to withdraw.
The ministers exchanged bewildered glances, wondering what urgent matter the Emperor had to attend to. They had only discussed the state affairs halfway through, and now the Emperor was leaving?
This is not like the Emperor's personality!
Although they had doubts, they dared not ask any further questions and took their leave.
Hongli dared not delay for a moment and immediately set off to visit Yushan.
When he arrived, the imperial physician was writing a prescription, and Yu Shan was lying in the tent.
Seeing that she didn't look well, Hongli hurried to the tent, took her slender hand in his, and said apologetically:
"I'm sorry, Yushan, I'm late!"
Yu Shan forced a smile, "It's alright, I'm fine."
"Are you really alright?" Hongli was worried that she wasn't telling the truth, so he turned to the imperial physician to ask about her condition.
The imperial physician replied truthfully, "Your Majesty, please do not worry. The Empress's pregnancy is relatively stable and there is nothing to worry about for the time being. However, Your Majesty must not be careless and must pay close attention to your condition at all times. If you experience any discomfort, abdominal pain, or spotting, please inform me immediately."
Only after hearing the imperial physician say that Yu Shan was alright did Hongli feel somewhat relieved.
After prescribing the medicine, the imperial physician respectfully took his leave. Hongli stroked Yushan's hand and inquired about the situation at the time.
Yu Shan gave a brief overview, saying that the horse suddenly went mad and galloped towards her, and she didn't know why.
"Horses can be very docile at times, but they can also be easily startled and go berserk. According to you, that horse was grazing at the time, and only the pasturekeeper was watching over it. How could it suddenly go berserk?"
The more Hongli thought about it, the more uneasy he felt. He immediately sent someone to interrogate the pastoral supervisor and ordered that the matter be thoroughly investigated!
"It's truly a stroke of luck that the horse didn't trample you. If you had been trampled, the consequences would have been unimaginable." Hongli dared not imagine that scene; just imagining it made him feel terrified.
Speaking of the trampling injury, Su Yushan couldn't help but worry, "Lord Fu was trampled by a horse, is his arm injury serious?"
Upon hearing this, Hongli looked surprised. "Which Lord Fu?"
“Fu Qing, when the situation suddenly broke out, he saw the horse going berserk and rushed over. If it weren’t for his rescue, I would probably have been trampled by the horse.”
Recalling the situation at that time, Su Yushan still feels lingering fear.
If she were trampled by a horse, she really couldn't be sure if she could save her unborn child...
Upon hearing Fu Qing's name, Hongli's expression froze, and he fell into deep thought.
"Fu Qing? What's he doing there? What a coincidence!"
There was a clear hint of doubt in Hongli's eyes, and this expression and tone made Su Yushan very uncomfortable.
"Isn't he the Minister of the Imperial Guard? Shouldn't he be on patrol? What else could it be but a coincidence? What do you think?"
