Chapter 188 Cold Wind
Although life in the cold palace is undoubtedly not easy, committing suicide requires courage, and not everyone has such courage.
Is Concubine Yu feeling desperate?
She had once truly loved the Emperor, right? But unlike Fu, she was calmer, more rational, and understood reality.
Xu Lanshan couldn't help but think of herself again. She also liked him a little bit, and she didn't know what would happen to her in the future.
Hmm... Although the goal of becoming a queen is still there, she suddenly feels that it seems a little out of reach!
Out of nowhere, Xu Lanshan's morning sickness came all of a sudden, and she vomited all the time. She vomited everything she ate, and sometimes even drinking water made her vomit up completely.
Nanny An, Yuchan and others were terrified and were about to report to the emperor, but were stopped by Xu Lanshan.
"It's not a big deal. What pregnant woman doesn't have morning sickness? Don't bother the emperor with such a small matter! I'll have a good rest for two days. I'll be fine after I get over this."
Nanny An and Yuchan looked at each other, not daring to say anything more.
Although there seemed to be no conflicts or disagreements between the Empress and the Emperor, they just felt that... there seemed to be something strange between the Empress and the Emperor.
Nanny An said softly, "It would be fine if you didn't disturb the Emperor, but the Empress is in such pain, it's not okay to endure it like this. How about asking Xiao Fuzi to get Doctor Tang?"
Imperial Physician Tang takes my pulse every three days, and it just so happened that he came yesterday.
Xu Lanshan was reluctant at first, but the morning sickness was too unbearable, and she really didn't want to endure it any longer, so she nodded in agreement: "Go and ask for Doctor Tang, but don't let anyone know about it, and don't alarm the emperor!"
"yes."
Doctor Tang arrived quickly, took her pulse, and found nothing unusual. He prescribed some mild, appetizing medicine to soothe her. "Pregnant women are like this, Your Majesty, don't panic. Relax and you'll be fine. Even if you feel uncomfortable, you should try to eat something. It doesn't matter what you eat, as long as you can eat it without vomiting. Wait a few days and see how it goes."
Xu Lanshan nodded and smiled, "I thought so too, but they are worried. I'm sorry to bother Doctor Tang to make this trip in such a cold weather."
"No, no, it is my humble duty to treat Her Majesty. If Her Majesty feels unwell, please inform me."
"Well, step back."
"yes......"
Xu Lanshan still couldn't eat anything. Her stomach was churning and it was really uncomfortable. She wanted to lie down with her clothes on, close her eyes and rest to refresh herself, but she felt more and more sleepy and fell into a deep sleep without knowing when.
I didn't sleep well. For some reason, my body kept getting hot and cold, and my head was dizzy and aching. I felt groggy and as if I was suffering in dire straits.
Xu Lanshan didn’t know how long she had been in this state. It seemed like a very long time, and the pain every minute and every second made her miserable.
She wanted to call for help, but she couldn't open her mouth or make a sound.
She wanted to open her eyes, but she couldn't open them even though she tried so hard...
All she knew was the chaotic, drowsy pain in her head, and the cacophony of voices that drifted near and far in her ears. Someone seemed to be beside her. Someone seemed to be calling her. She wanted to answer, to open her eyes, but she was powerless...
She didn't know how long it had been, but someone was still calling her in her ear. She finally mustered some strength and gently opened her eyes.
"The Queen is awake! The Queen is finally awake!"
"The Queen has finally woken up!"
The joyful voices of Nanny An, Yuchan and others were heard, but Xu Lanshan was still a little confused.
The handsome face with a smile on its face was particularly clear. The man held her hand tightly, his dark eyes gleaming with deep affection, cherishing and gentle. "Lan'er, you're finally awake!"
Xu Lanshan moved her lips, her throat was dry, and her voice was soft and hoarse: "Your Majesty..."
Emperor Yuan Yong felt extremely distressed and quickly ordered someone to bring warm water. He helped her sit up and leaned her against his arms, then took the teacup and fed her little by little.
Xu Lanshan's throat was so dry that it felt like it was smoking. She couldn't help but lean forward and want to swallow big gulps.
Emperor Yuan Yong felt distressed and laughed at the same time, "Lan'er, go slowly, be careful not to choke."
Xu Lanshan didn't care and drank half of the cup in one breath before she recovered.
Emperor Yuan Yong gently brushed his index finger across the corner of her lips, wiping away the drop of tea. He looked down at her with gentle concern: "How are you feeling, Lan'er? Are you feeling any worse?"
Xu Lanshan was slightly stunned. She had just woken up from the chaotic turmoil of the deep water and fire. Her mind was dull and not working well. After hearing this, she thought for a while and shook her head. "It seems like I slept for a long time. I tried hard to open my eyes but couldn't. Now I feel much better and I don't feel any discomfort."
"That's good," Emperor Yuan Yong breathed a sigh of relief. "You had a fever yesterday and tossed and turned all night, but you finally woke up."
Xu Lanshan was surprised to hear this. She was actually ill. No wonder she felt so dizzy and confused. No wonder she felt so weak and powerless even after waking up.
She forced a smile and sighed self-deprecatingly: "Am I actually sick? Really, there is really no sign at all. I am sorry to have caused the emperor to worry..."
"You know how much you worry me," Emperor Yuan Yong couldn't help but poke her forehead lightly with his finger, not knowing whether to show more pity or blame. "Why didn't you send someone to report your morning sickness to me? Not only did you handle it all by yourself, you even specifically ordered me not to be disturbed. When has Lan'er's affairs ever been considered a disturbance to me? Hmm?"
Xu Lanshan was stunned.
Emperor Yuan Yong said, "When you are well again, I will have to settle this account with you!"
Xu Lanshan: “…”
"I, I just think it's a small matter. No, I don't want to make the emperor worry!"
"A small matter?" Emperor Yuan Yong almost laughed out loud. "Lan'er's affairs are never small matters to me. Lan'er, remember this. Don't do this again in the future. Do you understand?"
When he saw Nanny An, obviously terrified but trying to remain calm to report that she was unconscious, he was so frightened that he almost trembled, his heart pounding wildly as he hurried over, hugged her in his arms and called her repeatedly, but her eyes were closed and she was unaware. She knew how panicked and scared he was at that time.
He was afraid that there were still some people who had slipped through the net in this palace. He was afraid that he had not been well prepared after all, and that she had fallen into someone else's trap.
He repeatedly confirmed with Doctor Tang whether she really just caught a cold.
When Doctor Tang confirmed it again and again, he felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.
But he knew it wasn't over yet.
She caught a cold while pregnant, which was no small matter.
He stayed with her all night and most of the day, not closing his eyes for a moment, until she finally woke up...
