Why did Shen Aojun bring her here now?
"Greetings to the Queen, Your Majesty, Queen, Your Majesty, may you live a thousand years, a thousand years, a thousand years..." Gu Yunru performed the salute calmly. There were two queens in Da Qi. The previous queen was deposed and banished to the cold palace because she colluded with ministers. The current queen was also the daughter of the prime minister. After becoming the queen, she unexpectedly fell seriously ill. Especially after she fell into the icy lake, she had a chronic illness since then. She had to take medicine every day and could not stand the wind and sun. This disease was much more complicated than any other illness she had seen.
"It turns out to be Miss Ashin. Please take a seat." The queen's voice sounded a little old, and one could tell at a glance that she was someone who had been seriously ill for a long time.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. I won't be polite then." Gu Yunru sat aside with a carefree look on her face. Shen Aojun stepped forward and helped the queen up and sat them on the phoenix couch. Although the queen was wearing expensive clothes, her face did not have any spirit and she looked haggard. The jewels on her body could not bring out her nobleness.
"Empress, how is your appetite?" Gu Yunru looked at her, looking at her gasping appearance, and asked with concern.
"I can eat normally." The queen said as she covered her lips with a handkerchief and coughed gently a few times. The smell in the room made her dizzy.
"It's true that the Empress' body cannot be exposed to the wind, but fresh air is absolutely indispensable." Gu Yunru pursed her lips and decided to have someone build a ventilation window, preferably on the roof, so that she can avoid being blown down by the wind but still be able to breathe fresh air.
"Ahem, what Miss Ashin said makes some sense." The Queen looked at her with appreciation. Shen Aojun said from the side, "Ah Xin, why don't you take the Queen's pulse and see what medicine you can prescribe for her."
"Oh, okay." Gu Yunru had already made preparations. She pulled out the hairpin on her head and was about to pierce her acupoints, but she scared her and looked at her warily.
"What are you going to do?" The queen was frightened and looked at her actions in confusion.
"Empress, please don't misunderstand me. I just want to see what trace elements your body is lacking, and then replenish what is missing for you." Gu Yunru's words made her even more confused, but seeing her confident look, she had to let her experiment on her scalp.
"Empress, please bear with the pain!" Before Gu Yunru finished speaking, she had already inserted the needle into her body. After pulling out the needle, she carefully observed the situation. It turned out that a large part of the problem of the Queen's weak body was due to the lack of iron.
"Ah Xin, how is the Queen's health?" Shen Aojun asked hurriedly. Gu Yunru paused, put away the things in her hands, and replied calmly, "The Queen's health is fine, but the medicine bottles she took before have no nutritional value. The Queen should increase her exercise."
After that, she immediately walked to the table, took some paper and ink and started to draw. Shen Aojun watched her draw a stick with two big circles next to it. She couldn't quite understand, "What is this thing? Why is it so strange? I have never seen or heard of it before."
"It's normal that Miss Shen has never seen this. This thing is called a barbell. Generally, it is used to exercise the arm muscles. I think the Queen needs to increase her exercise to keep her breathing smooth, so I asked the servants to make some things. It will probably take two days to complete."
Ah Xin's fantastic ideas were truly eye-opening, and even the Queen was convinced. Gu Yunru handed the drawings to Xiao Haozi and said to him, "Go to the palace and find some blacksmiths to make the things according to my drawings. Do you understand?"
"I understand. I'll go right away." The little mouse happily left the queen's bedroom with the blueprint. When he passed by a rock behind a rockery, someone threw a stone at his feet. The little mouse stopped suspiciously and observed his surroundings calmly.
"Who are you? Come out quickly, I've seen you!" The little mouse was bluffing. He was smart and clever. Suddenly, a black hand grabbed his neck, dragged him behind the rockery, took off the veil and said to him, "It's me."
"King... Queen." This person was Miao Xiang, who had sneaked into the foreign envoys' team and came to the palace. On the surface, she brought the envoys to negotiate peace, but in fact, she had detained all the envoys of Da Qi and only released Shu'er in order to complete the subsequent plan.
"Keep your voice down. Have you found out the identity of this Ah Xin and the origins of the poisonous insects she raises?" Miao Xiang sent Little Mouse to follow Gu Yunru to keep an eye on her every move. She didn't expect that Da Qi had such a capable person who could even crack her insect technique.
"To reply to your Majesty, Miss Ah Xin doesn't always carry Gu with her, but I know that the Gu she raises are not ordinary ones and are quite effective. However, I have been unable to do anything with her, so please punish me, Majesty."
The little mouse bowed his head respectfully. Miao Xiang put her hands behind her back and snorted coldly, "The situation in the foreign country has been determined. We have already gathered enough strength. The war may break out again. You must find a way to dig out the secret from Ashin, otherwise you will lose your life."
"I understand. I will definitely live up to the Queen's trust." The little mouse lowered his head, and the person in front of him had already flown away using light skills. He looked up at the blueprint in his hand and was so scared that he dropped it on the ground. He picked it up and went to find a craftsman to make it.
At night, everyone held a banquet in the main hall to welcome the foreign envoys. The emperor and several concubines in the harem attached great importance to this event.
At this time, Gu Yunru was taking care of her in the Queen's palace. If it weren't for Shen Aojun's order, she would probably have been enjoying the feast. Seeing that she was still standing by, the Queen turned around and said to her, "Ah Xin, you should also go to the banquet. The Emperor must have invited you to the palace this time because you are both very important to him."
"There's no need for those scenes. It's not like we haven't seen them before." Gu Yunru took a needle and treated her. Knowing that the queen was weak, she started with Chinese medicine massage to treat her. Unexpectedly, there was an effect.

It was the first time for the queen to face a woman naked like this. She turned her head away shyly, feeling uncomfortable all over.
"Empress, I will cupping you later. Don't be afraid. It's very comfortable!" Gu Yunru asked someone to bring a few fire tubes and lit them with candles. The queen was so scared when she saw this that she grabbed the quilt and her body trembled non-stop.
“Ah…”
The palace maids and eunuchs guarding the door of the bedroom looked at each other in bewilderment. The screams of the emperor and empress were so shrill that they made people's hair stand on end.
