Chapter 717: Seeking Help
Xiao Xixi heard the reluctance in his tone and hummed, "Don't be unconvinced, I'm doing this for your own good."
Luo Qinghan said with a wooden face: "Aren't you doing this to make yourself enjoy life better?"
Xiao Xixi: "Wrong, I just want us to enjoy life better together. What's the point of enjoying life alone? Eating alone doesn't taste good. Of course, it's better for two people to enjoy life together!"
Luo Qinghan: “…”
A big mouthful of honey suddenly poured into his mouth, it was so sweet!
However, before he could savor the sweetness of it, he felt Xixi suddenly pinching his shoulder!
The severe pain suddenly hit him and he couldn't help but let out a groan.
“Hmm!”
Eunuch Chang, who was about to push the door open and walk in, paused.
Judging from the sound, it seems that the emperor is doing something unspeakable with the imperial concubine.
Although it was not a good idea to commit adultery in broad daylight, as a qualified eunuch chief, Eunuch Chang tactfully withdrew his hand and decided to pretend that he had noticed nothing. He waved his hand and sent all the eunuchs standing outside the door away to prevent them from disturbing the emperor's good mood.
Baoqin was also waiting outside the door.
Although she was curious, she knew better than to ask.
Eunuch Chang said to her.
"Go prepare some hot water and a set of clean clothes. The Imperial Concubine may need them later."
Baoqin was quick-witted and immediately made a bold guess upon hearing this.
She couldn't help but show joy on her face and responded readily.
"Okay, I'll do it right away."
After saying that, she ran away excitedly.
Eunuch Chang stood in the corridor with his hands in his sleeves, looking at the flowers and plants in the courtyard, a faint smile on his face.
Maybe there will be a little prince in the palace soon?
Even if there is no little prince, a little princess is also good!
Soon Baoqin came back, followed by two little palace maids, one holding clothes and the other holding hot water.
The emperor's voice was heard from the imperial study, asking someone to bring in water.
Baoqin looked at Eunuch Chang with admiration. Eunuch Chang was really a prophet!
Eunuch Chang smiled calmly, opened the door, and led Baoqin and two little palace maids in.
Xiao Xixi had just given Luo Qinghan a massage and was sweating all over.
She washed her face with hot water first, and was pleasantly surprised to find Baoqin brought her clean clothes.
"You even prepared clothes? That's really thoughtful."
Baoqin quietly observed the imperial concubine, who was slumped on the couch. Although her clothes were neatly dressed, her face was flushed, her breathing was a little disordered, and there were fine beads of sweat on the tip of her nose. She looked tired.
It seems that the battle just now was very intense!
Baoqin pursed her lips and smiled: "Madam, do you want to take a bath?"
Xiao Xixi waved her hand to indicate no.
Although she was sweating a little, it was a cool autumn day and it would be fine after a while. There was no need to go to the trouble of taking a bath.
What's more, this is the imperial study, and taking a bath is really inconvenient.
Luo Qinghan drank tea while watching Xixi change clothes.
After she changed her clothes, he suddenly said.
"I'm planning to go out of the palace for the autumn hunt next month. Do you want to come with me?"
Xiao Xixi nodded without hesitation: "Go, go, go! I want to go!"
Autumn hunting means there will be a lot of game, such as pheasants, rabbits, wild boars, wild deer, etc. I can’t help drooling just thinking about it!
Luo Qinghan: "Then it's settled."
Xiao Xixi agreed.
Luo Qinghan had something else to do, so Xiao Xixi said goodbye and left.
Eunuch Chang personally escorted them out of the imperial study.
The imperial concubine's guard of honor moved forward slowly.
On the way, he met many palace maids and eunuchs, who all stepped aside to bow and greet him.
It is the golden autumn season now. The temperature is neither high nor low, and it is very comfortable with the gentle autumn breeze.
Xiao Xixi sat in the sedan chair, imagining herself killing a lot of people in the autumn hunt, with a pig in her left hand, a deer in her right hand, and a big pheasant in her mouth.
Oops, no.
My mouth is watering.
There was a little palace maid in front who was running around anxiously. When she saw the imperial concubine's guard of honor coming towards this side, her eyes lit up. Instead of avoiding them, she quickly walked towards them, knelt on the ground with a thud, and shouted.
"My Lady, please save my talent!"
Xiao Xixi was distracted by the exclamation and subconsciously looked in the direction of the voice.
I saw a little palace maid kneeling on the palace path, her eyes filled with tears, looking extremely pitiful.
The imperial concubine's guard of honor was forced to stop.
Baoqin frowned and stepped forward to ask.
"Who are you? How dare you even intercept the imperial concubine's carriage!"
The little maid said with tears in her eyes: "I am Zhiyuan, a maid in Ningxin Palace. My concubine is seriously ill. Please help her, Imperial Concubine!"
Baoqin: "If you are sick, just go and ask the imperial physician. What's the point of asking the imperial concubine?"
Zhi Yuan said hurriedly, "I went to the Imperial Hospital, but the doctors were all busy, so I only invited one doctor. The doctor prescribed medicine for the talented person, but after the talented person drank the medicine, his condition did not get better, but worsened."
When she said this, she finally couldn't hold back her tears.
"Wow, my concubine is so sick that she can't even get up. I really have no other choice but to beg the Imperial Concubine. Please be kind and save my concubine!"
Baoqin: "Who is your talented person?"
Zhiyuan cried and said, "It's Su Cairen."
Baoqin already had a plan in mind.
This Concubine Su has just entered the palace and has no foundation. In addition, she is not favored. Even if she is sick, the Imperial Hospital will not take her too seriously. Sending her a doctor is just a perfunctory measure.
As for why the symptoms worsened after taking the medicine?
That remains to be seen.
Baoqin asked Zhiyuan to wait here and turned around to report the matter to the imperial concubine.
After listening to it, Xiao Xixi didn't think much about it and said casually.
"Send someone to the Imperial Hospital with my name and ask them to send a doctor to treat Lady Su."
Baoqin nodded in response.
When Zhiyuan learned that the imperial concubine was willing to help, she was overjoyed. She kowtowed to the imperial concubine heavily, then retreated to the side of the road, wiping her tears.
After the imperial concubine's guard of honor had gone far away, Zhiyuan got up and ran back quickly.
She wanted to tell Su Cairen the good news and let her cheer up. With the imperial concubine in charge, everything would be fine!
When the Imperial Medical Bureau received the order from the imperial concubine and heard that she wanted to hire someone to treat Concubine Su, they were all very surprised.
They didn't understand why the imperial concubine suddenly felt pity for Concubine Su?
But no matter what, the Imperial Concubine had already intervened, and the Imperial Medical Bureau no longer dared to be negligent as before. They were preparing to send an experienced old doctor to Ningxin Palace when they saw Doctor Fang step forward on his own initiative.
"I'm free, so let me handle Su Cairen's matter."
The chief imperial physician knew that Imperial Doctor Fang had won the favor of the imperial concubine and had a promising future, so he naturally agreed to this small request.
"Then I'll trouble Doctor Fang to make this trip."
Doctor Fang smiled and said, "It's my job, I dare not say it's hard."
…………
Let me tell you something.
The editor informed me that the update will be on the 3rd of next month, but I don’t have enough manuscripts in reserve. I recently had a relapse of tendonitis, which limits my typing speed.
After much calculation, I can only reduce the daily updates from three chapters to two chapters. Then I grit my teeth and write a little more every day, and I can barely get 50,000 words in stock before the 3rd.
So, starting from today, Xianyu can only update twice a day. Please forgive me.
I don't have the face to ask for monthly tickets tonight woo woo woo~
