On the second day, as soon as Liu Wei entered the Blue Phoenix Palace, she heard Imperial Concubine Xin's critical voice from inside: "I told you this long ago, the soup couldn't be so simmering, did you? "How can you drink it?"
"I'm afraid Imperial Consort doesn't know that my young miss has been drinking like this all this time." The reply she got was Madam Yun's rebuttal.
Imperial Concubine Xin snorted. "Then esteemed empress was really unlucky to have drank such a damned thing for the rest of her life."
The Queen was not there.
"You're here." Imperial Concubine Xin smiled and indicated a seat beside his. "Take a seat."
What was with the owner's aura?
Liu Wei sat down and asked, "Where is the Empress?"
Imperial Concubine Xin raised her eyes and swept them over the inner palace. "I was sweating just now and went to take a bath."
Liu Wei then waited honestly.
Imperial Concubine Xin blew on the soup to cool it down before standing up to walk towards the inner hall.
Liu Wei called out hesitantly, "Didn't you say that the Empress is bathing?"
Imperial Concubine Xin covered his lips as he smiled, "It's not like the Empress is avoiding me."
This …
Liu Wei waited outside in a daze. After a while, she saw the Empress walk out, her hair slightly wet. Imperial Concubine Xin was beside her, carefully supporting her with her arms.
Seeing Liu Wei, the empress was very happy, and seeing that there were no one left in the hall, he asked the palace maid, "Where's Madam Xiang?"
The palace maid looked pitifully at Imperial Concubine Xin, not daring to speak a word.
Imperial Concubine Xin timely said, "I don't know why he left first, but he had some temporary business. Just now, you drank half a bowl of soup. Do you want to drink some more?"
The empress waved her hand. "No need."
Imperial Concubine Xin still wanted to say something, but the empress had already waved her hand towards Liu Wei.
Liu Wei walked over, and the Empress asked softly: "Yesterday, you were reported to the outside world that everything was fine?"
Liu Wei nodded his head, "It's fine now, it's all on the Empress's hands, so I've troubled you."
"What are you saying?" The empress shook her head in disapproval, "Just don't make a sound. Do you think my brothers can just watch as something happens to your family? In their early years, because they did not want to involve the strife of an official, they did not even allow the title of Royal Uncle to be conferred. Last time, when I went into a rage, the Emperor spoke up to reseal the position of kinsman, but you still do not know what my Yun Family looks like. I only gave a few words of advice for them to notify the subordinate soldiers to stand guard beside you. Don't let others look down on you. "
"That was also something that you put your heart into." Liu Wei was sincerely grateful. "I said it's a soldier from Imperial Uncle's Residence, but in reality, it's all because of the Empress's mother. Besides, where is the Emperor … …"
The empress was stunned. "What happened to the emperor?"
Liu Wei: "The emperor has been sending a lot of tributes to the palace these past few days, could it be that it's not the Empress …"
When the empress heard this, her eyes shifted to the laughing Imperial Concubine Xin. "You said it?"
Liu Wei also looked at Imperial Concubine Xin.
Imperial Concubine Xin lightly covered his red lips, his voice as delicate as a bird's chirping. "The emperor boasts that she respects his teacher. When something like that happens to the Imperial Tutor, he'll always have to worry about it.
"It was chenqie's decision. Chenqie didn't wish for the emperor to stay out of this matter. His eyes and hands were like the sky, and the entire mountain and river belonged to him. How could he not know? "This means that he knows and doesn't want to interfere. It's the Department of Public Officials and the Board of Justice, so he's on top. He's so tired that other people are running around. Just who is he looking at for nothing?"
However, the empress continued, "He has always been like this. It's not like you got to know him on your first day."
"That's why I'm not convinced." Imperial Concubine Xin said righteously, "With just a casual word from chenqie, does he still want to be punished?"
When Liu Wei heard this, she could only thank Imperial Concubine Xin.
Imperial Concubine Xin, however, didn't mind. "I'm not doing this for you. It's because I don't want the emperor to have a good time, isn't it?"
These words were too straightforward, Liu Wei felt awkward and could not continue.
Enter the palace today, say
Xie was one, and his follow-up was two.
He had said before, once he got back he would have to wash his kidneys. This time, when he entered the palace, Liu Wei brought along some tools so that he could give the empress a thorough check-up.
By the time the sun had set and Liu Wei had finished collecting all the data, she was scribbling on a piece of paper. She said at the same time, "The prediction of the physique is about as good as I thought it would be, after midnight tonight, the Empress does not need to eat nor do she need to drink."
"Even drinking water isn't enough?" Imperial Concubine Xin was a little worried. "This illness … is it really that tormenting?"
Although she was sure that Imperial Concubine Xin wasn't related to the mercury poison, there were differences in relationship. On the details of the illness, Liu Wei and the Queen didn't plan to tell her much, she only knew that Liu Wei could cure the Queen's illness.
Liu Wei gave a few simple instructions to Shan'er, but at this time, the Yun family came back.
She had changed her clothes and was not wearing the same clothes as the day before. She had a young maid by her side who was carrying a small bundle on her back.
"Why are you here now?" the queen asked.
Madam Yun glanced at Imperial Concubine Xin, who had not left for an hour, and said: "Seeing that Doctor Liu has entered the palace, we thought that he will be recuperating in the next two days, so we went back to the palace to pack up some clothes. These few days, I've been staying at Blue Phoenix Hall, so I can take care of him myself."
Before the empress had a chance to speak, Imperial Concubine Xin revealed the truth first, "You're just a foreign official's wife, how can you stay in the inner palace?" She then said to the empress, "Empress, this is against the rules."
Mistress Yun pulled at her face and said, "Imperial Consort worries too much. When Doctor Liu began treating the Empress, this subject's wife had already requested that the emperor order for her to stay in the palace to take care of the Empress. His Majesty agreed to that."
"Yo." Imperial Concubine Xin raised an eyebrow, "Are you talking to me about the imperial edict?" "Then tell me, is a sentence between me and the emperor useful, or are your words useful?"
"The Empress can find the Emperor to blow the wind on her pillow. "Jun Wu Yi is not joking. She has already given the order, but she hasn't taken it back yet."
"You …"
Seeing that the two were about to argue, the empress had no choice but to raise her hand and cut them off.
"Everyone has their own opinions when meeting each other. How can you have so many tempers? You can't let me have peace and quiet."
Imperial Concubine Xin couldn't refute this easily, but Mistress Yun was exceptionally pleased. She raised her chin as she walked past Imperial Concubine Xin, intentionally pushing her away to stand by the empress's side.
Imperial Concubine Xin was so angry that he grabbed the embroidered handkerchief tightly.
Liu Wei: "..."
