Chapter 141 Inviting Her Out of the Palace

Yun Qin returned to the side hall and fell asleep quickly.

Originally, I thought the emperor would spend a leisurely day, but unexpectedly, Xu An came to invite him at lunch time and said that the emperor wanted her to come over for lunch.

She clearly said that she should have her own lunch.

Although Yun Qin was surprised, she did not ask any more questions and changed her clothes again and went to the main hall.

Lunch had already been placed on the round table. Huo Jinchi was sitting at the table, reading a book. When he saw her coming, he closed the book and put it next to him.

"Your Highness."

Yun Qin bowed according to the rules and was pulled up by Huo Jinchi as usual and asked to sit next to him.

When she sat down, she accidentally saw that the book was actually a medical book.

But thinking that the city was taking precautions against the disease, it was normal for the emperor to worry about this matter, so he didn't think much about it.

Looking at the food on the table, Yun Qin whispered, "How can I let Your Majesty wait? Your Majesty, please eat first."

"It's okay." Huo Jinchi was not a person who attached great importance to rules. He didn't think there was anything wrong with it. He even picked up the bowl and poured a bowl of soup for Yunqin and placed it in front of her.

"This is made according to the medicinal recipe prescribed by Zhang Zhian. See if it suits your taste. If you don't like it, I'll ask him to make some changes." He whispered.

He didn't care about rules, but Yun Qin had to follow them. After thanking him, she waited for him to start eating before she lowered her head and took a sip of soup.

Since it is a medicinal food, it naturally has some flavor of Chinese medicine. The taste is not particularly good, but it is much better than drinking medicinal soup.

"It tastes great. Doctor Zhang Yu is so thoughtful." She smiled at Huo Jinchi and quickly served him a bowl of duck soup. "Your Majesty, please enjoy your meal."

Huo Jinchi took it with a smile and said, "Eat more if you like."

During this time, Huo Jinchi kept picking up dishes for Yunqin, all of which were dishes she liked, or dishes that were a little far away and Yunqin had only glanced at a few times.

Yunqin didn't notice it at first, but after doing it many times, she gradually realized that something was wrong.

With Hawking's ability to see into people's hearts, when he wants to take care of someone, he will naturally be extremely considerate and thoughtful.

She was naturally very comfortable being served, but she felt confused in her heart.

I haven't seen him like this before. What's wrong with him?

After thinking about it, it might be because of guilt.

Although Yun Qin intended to make him feel guilty about herself, the effect seemed to be too good, making him pay too much attention to herself.

This way, she is also under a lot of pressure, okay!

She also picked up some food for Huo Jinchi and whispered, "Your Majesty, don't just focus on me, eat too."

Huo Jinchi responded, and seeing that she was still staring at him, he lowered his eyes and ate the food she had passed to him.

He also noticed her discomfort and stopped serving her food.

Yun Qin finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After the meal, the palace servants cleared the food away and served the two a cup of tea.

Huo Jinchi took a sip of tea and suddenly said, "I have to leave the palace tomorrow. Do you want to go with me?"

"Really!" Yun Qin was so excited that she almost lost her balance. "Can I really leave the palace with the emperor?"

"When have I ever lied to you?" A smile flashed in Hawking's eyes.

Yun Qin nodded immediately, "Of course I am willing. Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Seeing her so happy, the smile in Hawking's eyes deepened.

Just leaving the palace was not Yunqin's purpose. Seeing that Huo Jinchi was in a good mood, she asked, "Can I go see Ah Jing?"

"Okay." Huo Jinchi lowered his eyes and drank his tea, agreeing in a calm tone.

Yun Qin was naturally very happy. She couldn't help but pull Rong Xin's hand beside her, and the smile on her face became even sweeter.

Huo Jinchi glanced at the two of them and said calmly, "You can't be without someone to serve you, so she should go with you."

Rong Xin, who was standing by, was stunned by what Huo Jinchi said. After Yun Qin pulled her, she came to her senses and quickly knelt down to express her gratitude.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace."

Yun Qin was even more attentive, and quickly picked up the teapot to refill Huo Jinchi's tea. "Your Majesty cares about the people, and he is truly the most wise emperor."

Huo Jinchi did not comment on this. As he lowered his eyes to drink tea, he could not help but curl up the corners of his mouth.

I'm used to hearing compliments, and her compliments are the most to my liking.

After talking for a while, Aunt Xia Yun came in with a bowl of medicine. After bowing, she said, "The medicine for the young lady is ready."

Yun Qin looked at the dark medicinal juice in the bowl, frowned, and looked at Huo Jinchi and said, "Your Majesty, didn't you just eat a medicinal meal? Why do you have to take medicine again?"

Looking at the bowl of medicine, Huo Jinchi's smile faded. He waved to Xia Yun to bring the medicine over and whispered, "You are in great physical condition. How can a mere tonic be enough?"

Seeing Yun Qin's frown, Huo Jinchi deliberately said lightly, "Do you want me to feed you?"

Yun Qin naturally didn't dare to ask him to do it, so she reached out to pick up the medicine, made up her mind, closed her eyes, and swallowed it in one gulp.

Rong Xin, who was waiting on the side, quickly stuffed the prepared candied fruit into her mouth and said, "Press it quickly."

Seeing Yunqin's wrinkled face, even if Huo Jinchi didn't drink the medicine, he could feel how bitter the medicine was from her face.

It seems that Zhang Zhian needs to change the prescription.

Yun Qin suppressed the bitter taste in her mouth and drank another sip of tea to wash away the sweetness in her mouth. She couldn't help but ask, "How long do I have to take this medicine?"

This question made Huo Jinchi silent for a while. After a while, he said, "It's up to Zhang Zhian to decide."

No matter what, let's put the blame for the discount on Zhang Zhian first.

Aunt Xia Yun advised, "Good medicine tastes bitter. Your hands are icy cold when I touch them. The weather has turned cold so early this year. Winter will surely be even colder. If you don't take good care of yourself, you will have a hard time this winter."

Yun Qin thought of her quilt which could only be warmed up in the second half of the night, and nodded helplessly.

After a while, the ministers who came to discuss the matter were about to arrive, so Huo Jinchi asked Yun Qin to return to the side hall.

As soon as they entered the palace, Yun Qin said to Rong Xin: "We are leaving the palace this time, and we don't know when we will leave the palace next time. We have to prepare more things for Ajing."

As she spoke, she opened her box and saw some small things she had collected some time ago, including the latest styles of silk cords in the palace, exquisitely crafted embroidery balls, and a small swallow kite.

Yun Qin looked at these things, and her expression gradually became heavy, no longer showing the excitement she had just now.

She picked up the picture of the swallow kite and stared at it for a while before saying to Rong Xin, "I originally thought that she would be able to go out and fly a kite next spring, since she is now outside the palace. But..."

As she spoke, Yun Qin's eyes turned red. "Giving her so many things might make her even sadder."

Rong Xin also sighed and whispered, "No, Ah Jing can't hide her feelings. If she says she's happy, she's really happy."

"She is stronger than me." Yun Qin wiped her eyes and touched the kite in her hand. Her eyes suddenly lit up. "Mr. Jiang is just outside the palace. I wonder if he can show Ah Jing a look."
