Chapter 29 No, You're Fine
Zhang Chengyan didn't feel tired throughout the whole day.
Putting down the memorial, he thought about what happened last night. He pondered over it for a while, and his face gradually turned cold.
He has never been one to indulge in sexual activities, so it's okay that he had sex with Lady Bai so many times last night. He can just assume that she is special and different.
But my state at that time was very wrong. How could I be so anxious and upset to the point of going directly to Yaoguang Palace?
"Wang Decai, do you still have the pine nut and lily pastry from yesterday?"
"Yes, I have put it aside. It is already overnight. Your Majesty should not eat it, otherwise it will harm your body."
"Take it to Doctor Ji and ask him to see if anything has been added to it."
Wang Decai was shocked, his thoughts raced, and he immediately understood, "Yes, I'll go right away."
He carried his things and came to the Imperial Hospital.
In order to keep it a secret, he asked someone to call out Doctor Ji, and then handed over the food box, "Doctor Ji, the emperor asked you to see if there is anything added here, especially something that can make people unable to stop."
Doctor Ji was about twenty-five or twenty-six years old, with a handsome appearance and a calm temperament.
He took the food box and said in a clear voice, "Thank you for your hard work, Eunuch Wang. I will report the result to the emperor in person and will not let anyone else know."
When the sky was filled with sunset glow, Imperial Physician Ji arrived at the Yangxin Palace.
"Your Majesty, I have carefully examined this pine nut and lily pastry. Apart from one more spice than the one in the imperial kitchen, there is nothing else in it."
Zhang Chengyan put down the memorial and asked, "Is there something wrong with this spice?"
"No problem. It is a common spice used by the people. It can enhance the flavor and color, but that's all. I have eaten cakes with this spice in a restaurant in the capital."
Zhang Chengyan nodded, "Then come and check if there is anything wrong with my body. I was very anxious yesterday, which has never happened before."
"Yes." Doctor Ji lowered his head and walked quickly forward to take the pulse.
After a long while, he released her hand. "Your Majesty is in good health, but he does have some signs of getting angry. Has Your Majesty consumed any tonic food recently?"
"No." Zhang Chengyan hasn't drunk any nourishing soup these days.
"Could you please tell me what the emperor has eaten these days?"
Wang Decai handed over the memorial, "This is the meal that His Majesty has eaten in the past seven days. If you want more meals from before, I will go get them."
Doctor Ji opened it and found a very detailed record, even clearly stating which dish Zhang Chengyan had taken and how many bites he had.
His eyes fell on one of the dishes. "Your Majesty, this dish is a special delicacy after the beginning of autumn. It is fine to eat it alone, but if it is eaten with mutton, it will cause internal heat. Your Majesty has eaten this dish for two consecutive days. I am afraid this is the reason."
"Although the strong internal fire will not affect your life span, it will cause irritability, loss of appetite and insomnia, or even insomnia and dreaminess. In the long run, it will cause great damage to your dragon body. Your Majesty, this matter may seem small, but the body has always been strange. Sometimes, just a little fire may cause a greater disease."
Zhang Chengyan felt relieved. The things in the imperial kitchen were not something a beauty could interfere with.
It is so difficult to find a pure and flawless beauty. It would be a pity if she were to be defiled.
"Wang Decai, call the people from the imperial kitchen over. They should have known that there would be problems with these two dishes, but they still served them to me. They are really tired of living!"
Even if you don't want to kill yourself, you must punish severely!
After a while, the eunuch from the imperial kitchen arrived.
After learning the reason, he was so scared that he knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "Your Majesty, this, this is all the Queen Mother's intention!"
"Oh? You did what the Queen Mother told you to do. Do you think the Queen Mother is more important than me?"
The eunuch almost collapsed to the ground, "Your Majesty, I dare not think so. The Queen Mother threatened me, and I can't do anything about it!"
Zhang Chengyan's expression was icy, "Drag him away and behead him!"
"No! Your Majesty, I have been following you since the palace. I dare not do it again! Your Majesty, please spare my life!"
Even after following him for many years, Zhang Chengyan was still rude and killed people without hesitation.
Wang Decai was so scared that he shrank aside. It is true that serving the emperor is like serving a tiger.
"I am the emperor of the Darong Kingdom. Anyone who behaves like this will suffer the same fate!"
"yes!"
The news that the chief eunuch of the imperial kitchen had been executed spread in the palace at an extremely fast speed.
When the Queen Mother learned about this, she was so angry that she threw the teacup and said, "The Emperor is mad at me! He is just a little more angry, why would he kill someone?"
She called the maid over and said, "Go, call the emperor over. I want to ask him if he is dissatisfied with me."
"There's no need to call me, mother. I'm here." Zhang Chengyan stepped into Yongshou Palace.
He sat beside the Queen Mother, personally filled a cup of hot tea, and spoke a few more words in one breath, "Mother, I know you are doing this for my own good and for the heir. But have you ever thought that if anger accumulates too much, it will not be a good thing? Doctor Ji said that anger is likely to cause other diseases. Aren't you worried about my health?"
The empress dowager was embarrassed. If Zhang Chengyan had a bad attitude as soon as he arrived, she would have reason to scold him.
But now, she couldn't refute a word.
"Mother, please don't do such things in the future. I understand your heart." Thinking of the opera troupe, Zhang Chengyan smiled and said, "I will go to the harem today."
The Queen Mother finally smiled, "Then the Emperor should go and favor Lady Wen."
"Okay, I will obey you, mother."
The mother and son are loving and filial.
Only then did Zhang Chengyan stand up and leave.
Tianxiang Garden.
Upon learning that the card to be turned over tonight was Wen Chuyun's, Cuiwei and others immediately got busy.
"My lady, the water is ready. I will serve you to bathe."
Wen Chuyun nodded and got into the bathtub.
Cuiwei was all smiles, "Now the Queen Mother is particularly optimistic about you. If you sleep with her more often, you will definitely be able to conceive a heir."
"I hope so." Wen Chuyun was delighted. She came to the palace not only for herself but also for the whole family. "Go get the perfume and powder. You must dress up for me tonight."
After it became completely dark, she was carried to the Jinshen Hall.
She put on light makeup today, which made her look even more delicate.
After all, she is young, so even if she is a little plump, she is still good-looking.
Zhang Chengyan sat on the edge of the bed and lifted the quilt.
Wen Chuyun blushed. Although it was not her first time to serve the emperor in bed, she couldn't help but feel her heart beating faster every time she saw the emperor.
There was not a single thread beneath the brocade quilt.
As soon as Zhang Chengyan touched it, he felt it was slippery.
He had just favored Lady Bai last night, and he had tasted the sweetness of it. He wanted to favor Lady Wen today to release some of his anger.
But when I saw the white meat, my interest was greatly reduced.
He got on the dragon bed and hugged Wen Chuyun.
"Your Majesty." Wen Chuyun knew that her voice was pleasant to the ear. "I will serve you."
She stood up, but even though she was careful, she still felt heavy.
Zhang Chengyan hugged her waist and was about to take the next step, but after feeling her thick waist and fat, he completely lost interest, "Forget it, I'm a little tired today."
Wen Chuyun was stunned, "Your Majesty?"
Zhang Chengyan didn't say anything else, just turned around and faced her with his back.
This Wen Chuyun is indeed good-looking, and bears some resemblance to Concubine Rong.
But he had just favored the beautiful lady Bai yesterday. Compared with her slender figure, the one in front of him really did not interest him. "I'm a little tired. Let's go to sleep."
The candle went out.
Wen Chuyun stared blankly at the top of his head.
Zhang Chengyan just lay beside her, but never touched her again.
Tears kept falling, but Wen Chuyun didn't dare to make a sound.
She stayed awake all night.
On the contrary, Zhang Chengyan slept very well.
In the early morning, Wen Chuyun had already put on her clothes and was helping him to go to court. She asked carefully, "Your Majesty, what did I do wrong?"
"No, you're fine." Zhang Chengyan didn't want to say more.
He raised his hand and touched Wen Chuyun's face, "I'm just tired, not because you did a bad job."
He lowered his hand and rubbed his fingers.
The touch is not as delicate as Bai Meiren's, and the skin is a bit rough if you look closely.
As Zhang Chengyan went to court, Wen Chuyun had to go back.
As soon as she entered Tianxiang Garden, Xu Yao came to greet her, "Congratulations, Sister Wen. Apart from Concubine Rong and the Empress, few people can stay overnight with the Emperor!"
Wen Chuyun forced a smile. She did stay overnight, but the emperor did nothing.
In the eyes of outsiders, she was probably favored by the emperor, and Rong Fei and others might even regard her as a thorn in their eyes.
But in fact she got nothing and she dared not say it.
This taste is really more bitter than Coptis chinensis!
