Chapter 47 - Within three days, the room must be filled
"What kind of expression is that?" Xiao Qingqian frowned unhappily.
He finally understood that a woman like Wei Qing was not worth for others to treat with kindness!
Even if it was good, it was a conspiracy in her eyes.
"I'll go instruct the things that should be prepared."
She felt that Xiao Qingqian acting in such an abnormal manner must be part of some unspeakable plot, so she decided to hide as far away as possible!
Xiao Hanqi hid in a corner and quietly watched the interaction between the two of them.
Previously, Wei Qing was always following behind Xiao Qingqian like a shadow, but her thoughts could be said to be known by everyone in the capital. But Xiao Qingqian really hated her, otherwise, it would be impossible for all the Chief Consort s to enter at the same time!
He had originally wanted to wait and see, and catch a big fish with a long line. If he could rope in Prime Minister Wei, who was always in a neutral position, then it would be beneficial to his future.
However, from the looks of it, Xiao Qingqian did not treat Wei Qing that badly, but Wei Qing had even helped him explain.
Whether the two of them were putting on a show in front of everyone, or were really showing off their love for each other, was the truth.
If it was just a show, they could attack each other. If he really loved her, then, how could Tian Sisi explain that?
When Wei Qing walked over, she suddenly saw a shadow flash by.
"What is Third Sister-in-law looking for?" Xiao Hanqi could not avoid the attack, so he casually made his appearance.
"Nothing."
Wei Qing didn't have a good impression of Xiao Qingqian, she thought that he was a trash. At the same time, she didn't have a good impression of Xiao Hanqi either.
"Third sister-in-law and third brother seem to have a good relationship." Xiao Hanqi looked at Wei Qing with a disdainful smile.
Wei Qing studied him for a minute, then laughed and shook his head, "Does the relationship between the crown prince and his consort look bad?"
Xiao Hanqi let out a light harrumph, as it was truly watertight.
However, it seemed like the person in front of him was different from the infatuated Wei Qing from before.
"If there is nothing else, I still have other things to say. I will not continue to chat with the Crown Prince." With that, she quickly left.
Xiao Qingqian saw that Xiao Hanqi was actually talking and laughing with Wei Qing from afar, and an inexplicable sour taste surfaced in his chest, to the point that besides the coldness, the gaze with which he looked at Xiao Hanqi contained a hint of warning.
Sensing the gaze, Xiao Hanqi squinted his eyes.
Could it be that Xiao Qingqian and Wei Qing's relationship was really good?
Wei Qing returned to the Inner Palace and observed the situation of the empress dowager. After instructing the people below to prepare the Blood and Qi replenishing porridge, she stayed in the Inner Palace.
The sun was setting, and Wei Qing guessed that it was about time, and began to prepare to pull out the needles.
Taking out the needle is actually as important as taking out the needle.
Old Emperor frowned, "Could it be that Imperial Mother was poisoned?"
Wei Qing indicated for the Old Emperor to be patient and not to disturb her while she pulled out the needles.
After all the silver needles were removed, Wei Qing spat out a long breath of foul air and explained to the Old Emperor.
Because the empress dowager had previously saved the previous Emperor in winter, causing the cold energy to enter the body, it took a long time for the cold energy to seep out of the body, and the Royal Hospital's formula was only able to cure it. This resulted in the cold energy rising, gathering together blood vessels and meridians, causing the headache to become more and more severe.
The reason why the silver needle had turned color just now was because the blood vessels had been opened and the cold air had risen.
Although Old Emperor didn't know much about medicine, a matter that could be easily resolved with acupuncture alone was actually something that no one in the entire Royal Hospital could solve in so many years.
"The academy's judge!" A sullen voice came from the gaps between their teeth, causing everyone's heart to tremble uncontrollably.
The magistrate and all the imperial physicians knelt down in unison, not daring to even breathe loudly.
Wei Qing hurriedly said, "Your majesty, even though it looks like it's just acupuncture, it's actually not easy to control."
The Old Emperor looked at her deeply. How could she not know that Wei Qing was trying to clear up for the royal doctors?
He thought about how he could punish everyone, and that when Wei Qing used the needles, her position was indeed dangerous. After using the needles, Wei Qing was almost exhausted, and Old Emperor only snorted heavily, but did not punish everyone.
The royal doctors all heaved a sigh of relief. At the same time they were grateful to Old Emperor, they were also grateful to Wei Qing.
After her headache subsided, the empress dowager slept very well. When she opened her eyes again, she looked much more energetic than before.
The old wet nurse hurried to bring some tea to replenish her energy and blood, and the empress dowager waved at Wei Qing with a smile.
Wei Qing hurried forward. "Does the empress dowager feel better?"
Wei Qing did not say a word, and could only smile while blushing.
"This Dowager wants to ask you a question, but you must tell the truth."
Wei Qing nodded, but she was not at ease.
"You and Old Third haven't made up yet?"
Wei Qing's eyes suddenly widened. She definitely didn't want to become husband and wife with that scumbag!
"Empress Dowager, this …"
Xiao Hanqi's heart thumped.
This time, Wei Qing had gained the Royal Grandmother's favor by treating him. If he had the Royal Grandmother's protection, wouldn't Xiao Qingqian be like a tiger with wings in the future?
With that thought, the gaze he looked at Xiao Qingqian with became even colder.
Feeling the cold gaze that was focused on his back, Xiao Qingqian stopped in his tracks and turned to look.
Their gazes met in midair, and sparks seemed to be coming out.
Xiao Qingqian was the first to withdraw his gaze, the corners of his mouth raised, full of provocation.
Xiao Hanqi retracted the hand under his sleeve, causing the jade thumb ring finger to feel pain, but he could not feel it, in his chest, it was as if there was a fire, growing stronger and stronger.
Xiao Qingqian entered the inner hall, saluted respectfully, and asked the empress dowager a few more questions. Then, the empress dowager looked at him with a fierce gaze.
He frowned and looked at Wei Qing.
Wei Qing turned his eyes away from the empress dowager and avoided seeing his small action, which made Xiao Qingqian even more certain that Wei Qing had complained in front of the empress dowager!
"Third brother, I won't say anything else. You must get over my trouble within three days!"
"Cough, cough, cough ~ ~ ~"
As the empress dowager's words fell, Wei Qing choked on her own saliva and coughed violently.
