Chapter 199 You are more annoying than a hen

The servant scratched his head, glanced at Cao Hanlin over there, covered his mouth with his hands, and whispered to Emperor Mingxi: "It's hard to say anything!"

[Hahaha! It's strange that Aunt Yin would like Cao Qingchun, who is so nagging and nagging.] Xia Miaoyuan glanced at Cao Qingchun over there and complained.

Emperor Mingxi was about to ask why it was so hard to say anything, when he heard Cao Qingchun's voice: "Cao Shan, did you buy the steamed cheese with sugar?"

"Ahem!" The servant named Cao Shan deliberately cleared his throat to remind Cao Qingchun that the emperor was coming.

"Cao Shan, you..." Cao Qingchun was about to scold the servant, but turned his head and saw the face of Emperor Mingxi.

"Yes, Your Majesty..."

Emperor Mingxi immediately made a gesture to him, and Cao Qingchun changed his words and said, "Master, Madam, you are also in the clinic."

At this time, Yin Xizi also noticed the emperor and empress, and immediately stood up and bowed.

"No need to be polite. Today, our family of three is out for fun. We passed by the clinic and stopped by to see Doctor Yin." Emperor Mingxi said gently.

"Mr. Cao, why are you also in the clinic?" Emperor Mingxi looked at Cao Qingchun meaningfully.

Cao Qingchun's face flushed a little, and he hurriedly explained, "It's like this. A few months ago, at the full-month banquet of my colleagues, my old illness relapsed and I fainted on the ground. Fortunately, Doctor Yin saved me. After that..."

Cao Qingchun chattered non-stop, and it took a whole stick of incense to explain to the emperor and empress how he and Yin Xizi met.

During the conversation, the emperor and the empress kept frowning.

[Hahaha, no wonder Aunt Yin doesn't like him. He is so nagging. Any other girl would be annoyed.] Xia Miaoyuan covered her mouth and laughed. Even Maomao and Xiaojuzi wanted to run away impatiently.

Emperor Mingxi frowned, and recalled those long and smelly prayers, sacrificial texts, and eulogies that Cao Qingchun had written for him in the past. He was also very annoyed.

This Cao Qingchun, his character and ability are not bad, but he talks too much.

Xia Miaoyuan was really bored, so she took out walnut cakes from her pocket and ate while listening.

[Ah, I remember in the book, this Cao Qingchun died because of his long-windedness. It's really a pity. 】

What? There is such a cause of death!

Emperor Mingxi was immediately alert, holding his breath and listening to his daughter's voice.

【It was a big war at that time, and the enemy was attacking the capital. Cao Qingchun accidentally met a soldier who came down from the front line to report the news. 】

【The messenger was already dying at that time, and he used up his last strength to tell Cao Qingchun the key information so that Cao Qingchun could inform the higher-ups in time. 】

【As a result, Cao Qingchun couldn't change his mother-in-law's bad habits even at such a critical moment. He grabbed the messenger and asked him questions all the time. 】

【The messenger was so anxious that he vomited blood. He didn't have time to tell the key military information and was anxious to death. 】

【Later, the city was broken and the enemy occupied the capital. 】

【Cao Qingchun found out that it was because of him that the military situation was delayed. He was so ashamed that he stood on the city wall and slashed his neck to commit suicide. 】

Xia Miaoyuan recalled this passage in the book and sighed for a moment, even forgetting to eat the snack in his hand. Seeing

this, Maomao, who was standing by, quietly walked over, took the walnut cake in Xia Miaoyuan's hand, and pulled it into his mouth.

"Bad Maomao! Bad Maomao!" Xia Miaoyuan's thoughts returned to reality, and he scolded Maomao in a baby voice.

Xia Zhengqi and the queen frowned more and more.

It was so sad and hateful that a great Hanlin of the Xia Dynasty ended up like this because of his long-winded talk!

Xia Zhengqi clenched his fist and pounded it on the table.

This time, no matter what, Cao Qingchun's bad habit of being long-winded must be cured.

Cao Qingchun was still chattering, but was suddenly frightened by the sound of pounding the table.

"Mr. Cao has been talking for such a long time, he must be thirsty, sit down and have a cup of tea to moisten your throat." The queen stepped out to smooth things over.

"I'm not thirsty, I'm not tired, I haven't finished yet..." Cao Qingchun continued to chatter.

At this time, Yin Xizi had just finished correcting the patient's bones, and cast a helpless expression to the queen.

"Stop!" Xia Zhengqi shouted unbearably.

Everyone was startled, but then they all cast grateful eyes to Emperor Mingxi.

It was a great pity for Emperor Mingxi, otherwise they would have been forced to listen to Cao Qingchun's repetitive words.

"Mr. Cao, can you please speak more concisely?" Xia Zhengqi asked with suppressed anger.

Cao Qingchun was confused: "Did I miss the point? Am I not concise enough?"

Xia Miaoyuan said in a baby voice: "Uncle Cao, you are very long-winded, just like an old woman's foot binding."

Cao Qingchun's face turned red instantly.

In the lobby of the clinic, a burst of laughter suddenly broke out.

Emperor Mingxi glared at Cao Qingchun fiercely and gave him a look of disappointment.

"Mr. Cao, you are really long-winded! It makes me want to vomit." A patient who was waiting in line in the lobby to see a doctor said.

"That's right. I came to see Dr. Yin for acupuncture these two days, and I heard this gentleman chattering behind Dr. Yin for two consecutive days. He was just like a clucking hen."

[Hahaha, he has a sharp tongue, but he has a good image!] Xia Miaoyuan laughed.

"I think even a clucking hen is more interesting than him. At least a hen can lay eggs." Another patient joked.

There was another round of laughter in the lobby.

Cao Qingchun's face turned red all the way to his ears. He stammered, "You are so unreasonable! How am I being long-winded? I am a student who has studied hard for fifteen years and has been reading sage books since I was a child..."

Emperor Mingxi could no longer bear it and stepped forward to grab Cao Qingchun's sleeve and said, "Mr. Cao, let's not disturb Doctor Yin's treatment

. Let's come out and talk!" As he said this, he dragged Cao Qingchun out of the clinic.

"Sister Yin, I will come to the clinic to see you later tomorrow! You must wait for me!" Cao Qingchun shouted at the top of

his lungs. The emperor and the empress were both very upset.

When they were in a secluded place with no one around, Emperor Mingxi let Cao Qingchun go.

"Your Majesty, why are you dragging me down?" Cao Qingchun straightened his clothes with a puzzled look.

"You fool!" Emperor Mingxi pointed at Cao Qingchun angrily.

"I order you to change your bad habit of being long-winded from today on. You must grasp the key points and be concise. The same applies to writing documents. You must be short and concise."

Cao Qingchun: ...

This special decree of Emperor Mingxi shocked Cao Qingchun and made him speechless.

"Shuisheng, Suntian!" Xia Zhengqi called out, and two young eunuchs in plain clothes immediately bowed and walked forward.

"From today on, the two of you will follow Lord Cao day and night, and you are not allowed to leave him even a step." Xia Zhengqi looked serious.

The two young eunuchs were full of doubts.

Shuisheng asked in a low voice: "Why does His Majesty want us to follow him?"
