Looking at Gu Yanwei's leaving back, Shen Qingqiu's eyes gradually became lonely.
"My queen, why did you push the emperor to Danfeng Palace?"
Shen Qingqiu concealed his expression, sat back on the bed and said, "After all, he is the emperor, how can he favor me alone?"
"Your Majesty, it's because of what Concubine Rong said today."
Seeing that Shen Qingqiu didn't say anything, Suo Xin pouted and said dissatisfiedly: "How could Concubine Rong treat you like this? She was able to enter the palace because of you, Your Majesty..."
"Suoxin, stop talking, help me close the curtain, I'm sleepy."
On the other side, in Danfeng Palace, Concubine Rong was about to say something when Eunuch Li's voice suddenly came in.
"The Emperor has arrived!"
Concubine Rong suddenly sat up from the bed in shock, looked at Zhu'er beside her and said, "Zhu'er, did I hear it wrong? It's the Emperor."
Zhu Er nodded vigorously and said, "Yes, it's the Emperor."
"Hurry, change my clothes." Concubine Rong threw back the quilt and sat up from the bed.
As soon as I put on my clothes, Gu Yanwei walked in.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you!"
Gu Yanwei strode towards her, helped Concubine Rong up and said, "There's no need to be so polite, Concubine Rong." As he spoke, he walked towards the bed and sat down.
"It has been half a year since I entered the palace. Is there anything you are not used to in the past six months?"
Since she entered the palace, the emperor had only expressed his condolences to her at the beginning because of her father's affairs. This was the first time he cared about her so much.
Concubine Rong shook her head excitedly and said in a somewhat incoherent voice, "No, there is nothing I am not used to. Thank you very much, Your Majesty, for your concern."
On the other side, Shen Qingqiu, who was lying on the bed, tossed and turned in bed, with sweat dripping down his forehead and soaking his clothes.
“Your Majesty, Your Majesty.” Seeing the sweat on Shen Qingqiu’s forehead, Suo Xin woke her up worriedly.
Shen Qingqiu opened her eyes in a trance, as if she saw Gu Yanwei standing in front of her.
"Gu Yanwei." Shen Qingqiu's voice was as weak as a kitten. He looked for a long time before recognizing the person in front of him.
"My lady, you have a fever." Suo Xin touched her forehead and said, "It's actually a cold day today. You have caught a cold. I will go and get the imperial physician right away."
In just half an incense stick of time, Suoxin called the imperial physician over.
"Imperial Physician, how is the situation?"
The imperial physician packed up his medicine box and said, "Your Majesty has only caught a cold. Wait for me to prescribe some medicine. Give it to you for three days and you will feel better."
"The prison doctor is here."
When Suo Xin just sent the imperial physician away and returned to Shen Qingqiu's palace, Shen Qingqiu had already fallen into a deep sleep with layers of sweat still on his forehead. Suo Xin was really worried, and after thinking it over, he ran towards the Danfeng Palace.
"Your Majesty, I am living very well here, but I sometimes feel a little lonely. Your Majesty is now the closest person I have left in this world. I only hope that Your Majesty can come and visit me more often in the future."
Concubine Rong had a fair and delicate face, and anyone who saw her would feel distressed. Gu Yanwei had promised that she would do everything she could to satisfy Xia Meng's requests.
Just when he was about to nod, the palace maid Suo Xin suddenly rushed in. Seeing Suo Xin, Gu Yanwei frowned and said, "Suo Xin, why are you here?"
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. Your Majesty, our queen has a severe headache. The imperial physician said that she has caught a cold. She is confused and keeps calling you."
"What?!" Hearing that Shen Qingqiu was not feeling well, Gu Yanwei left without even looking back. Rong Fei wanted to call him, but she only saw his back as he hurried away.
Danfeng Palace returned to its previous loneliness, as if what just happened was just a dream.
Zhu Er looked at her own queen distressedly and said, "How could Concubine De be like this? The emperor finally came to Danfeng Palace, and she went to great lengths to call the emperor away."
Concubine Rong weakly sat back on the bed, "I have no intention of competing with her. As long as the emperor can come to me occasionally, I will be satisfied. But she refuses to fulfill even such a small wish of mine. Why, why does she do this? Shen Qingqiu!" Concubine Rong gritted her teeth.
In just half an incense stick's time, Gu Yanwei had already arrived at Chengchun Palace.
At this moment, Shen Qingqiu was lying on the bed, his head covered with fine beads of sweat, and his little face was as pale as porcelain.
"Qingqiu, how are you?"
Shen Qingqiu opened his eyes with great effort and saw Gu Yanwei sitting beside his bed. He felt very warm in his heart, but he also felt that he shouldn't be sitting here at this moment.
"Your Majesty, why are you back again?"
"Suo Xin said you were not feeling well, so you came to Danfeng Palace to find me. Why didn't you tell me that just now?"
Shen Qingqiu closed his eyes and said, "I just caught a cold, it's nothing serious, the lock core is really something."
"You always talk tough." Gu Yanwei took off his outer robe, lay down beside Shen Qingqiu, and stroked Shen Qingqiu's somewhat cold belly with his big hand, "Okay, I'm coming."
When Shen Qingqiu opened his eyes again, the sunlight outside was already shining on the ground, speckled in spots. In the cold winter day, there was a different kind of romance.
He rubbed his sore eyes, lifted the quilt and sat up. At this time, Suo Xin came in with a basin of hot water.
"Madam, are you awake?" Putting the hot water aside, Suo Xin took clothes from the shelf and put them on Shen Qingqiu.
Shen Qingqiu glanced at the lock core and said, "I was sick last night, so you went to Danfeng Palace?"
Suoxin nodded, "You had a severe headache last night. Sometimes you were lucid and sometimes you were confused. You kept calling your majesty. I went to Danfeng Palace to call your majesty back. When your majesty heard that you were not feeling well, he immediately ran back." Suoxin remembered Gu Yanwei's worried expression on Shen Qingqiu's face last night, and couldn't help laughing.
Shen Qingqiu frowned and said angrily: "Suo Xin, how could you do this?"
Suo Xin was a little puzzled, "My Lady."
"I finally persuaded His Majesty to go to Danfeng Palace last night, but you called His Majesty back from Danfeng Palace. Don't you remember what happened in Fengwu Palace yesterday morning? How can I get along with Concubine Rong in the future if you do this?"
Suo Xin finally reacted. She was anxious last night and had never thought of this. Now that she thought about it, she ran to Danfeng Palace last night to call His Majesty back. Wouldn't that make Shen Qingqiu completely fall out with Concubine Rong?
"My lady, what should we do?"
Shen Qingqiu put on his shoes and said, "Please help me with my makeup first."
When the master and servant arrived at Danfeng Palace, Concubine Rong was nowhere to be seen.
Suo Xin frowned, "Where would Concubine Rong go so early in the morning?"
"Except for the Queen, I guess it won't be anywhere else."
“My Lady.” Suo Xin frowned and looked at Shen Qingqiu, “Did this servant really cause you trouble?”
Shen Qingqiu glanced at the lock core, sighed and said: "Let's go to Fengwu Palace first!"
At this time, in Fengwu Palace, Concubine Rong and her maid Zhu'er had just arrived.
"Sister, you are here."
Last night, someone had already passed the news from Danfeng Palace to Li Wanting. She knew that Concubine Rong would come today and had already prepared tea and snacks.
"Sister, please take a seat."
Rong Fei had a sad face, and it was obvious that she was worried. Li Wanting also pretended to be upset and said, "Sister, you are in a bad mood so early in the morning. Tell me what happened. Did you not sleep well last night?"
Zhu Er was even more angry about what happened yesterday. Before Concubine Rong could speak, she started to talk, "Your Majesty, you don't know that His Majesty finally came last night, but our Majesty hadn't stayed here for long before the man in Changchun Palace started to pretend to be sick and sent a maid to ask the Emperor to call him back. How could our Majesty bear such humiliation? She cried all night."
"Is this true?" Li Wanting asked in surprise.
"It's true." Rong Fei said with tears in her eyes, "After all, I am also the daughter of the general. How could she humiliate me like this?"
"It's really outrageous. I didn't expect her to be so arrogant. Since she is favored, it is her responsibility to advise the emperor to treat everyone equally, but she has been monopolizing the emperor. I have been tolerant of her again and again, but I didn't expect that she..." Li Wanting sighed and said, "It's okay now. If you have a son in the future, it will be a big mess. I'm afraid you will have to give him my position as queen."
Hearing this, Concubine Rong also perked up. She couldn't imagine how they would survive in this palace if Shen Qingqiu had a child in the future.
Li Wanting saw Rong Fei's doubts and knew that this was the opportunity she wanted.
"Sister, I don't think you want to get pregnant with a dragon son, right?" Li Wanting asked tentatively.
"Now that she is the most favored one in the harem, if she gets pregnant, then wouldn't we..."
Li Wanting took out a small bottle from her sleeve and said, "This is a special potion made in the Western Regions. If a woman drinks it, she will not have a child." Li Wanting sighed and said, "When I first entered the palace, I was also ignored. At that time, I was just like you, very jealous of Concubine De. I was confused and asked someone to prepare this bottle of potion, but I am the queen after all, how can I..."
"Your Highness." Rong Fei suddenly said, "You are the Queen, and you made De Fei pregnant with a prince. What will you do with your future children? She is so arrogant now. If she has a child in the future, won't she even ignore you?"
After saying this, Concubine Rong stood up, took the bottle of medicine in her hand and said, "Sister, I know that the Queen is in a difficult situation, so let me do this."
As soon as the two finished talking, Shen Qingqiu's voice came from outside the door.
Concubine Rong quickly hid the medicine bottle in her sleeve. The two looked at each other and nodded.
"Your Majesty, I felt a little unwell yesterday and came a little late today. Please forgive me, Your Majesty."
Li Wanting waved her hands and said, "Forget it, forget it. What I said to you yesterday was a bit harsh. I hope Concubine De will not take it to heart."
"Your Highness, you are too kind." Shen Qingqiu looked at Concubine Rong and said, "Concubine Rong, regarding what happened last night, I..."
Rong Fei smiled and interrupted her: "Sister, you were not feeling well last night. I heard from Suo Xin. Are you feeling better today?"
