As spring and summer alternate, diseases occur more frequently.
As children, they couldn't stand the slightest hardship. The weather suddenly became hotter for two days, and then the north wind came strong. It seemed like it was early spring again. The temperature difference was so big that the children in the palace fell ill. few. Among them, Fu Guang and Fu Kang both lay down.
Fu Guang got sick, which made Li Wei anxious. He immediately summoned the imperial doctor to carefully treat Fu Guang's illness. Although it is just an ordinary wind and cold, the patient is young after all, so someone still needs to take good care of him.
As Fu Guang's adoptive mother, Li Wei was naturally worried day and night, so she took the initiative to temporarily move to Hanyuan Hall to take care of her closely.
"What does the emperor want to eat?"
Fu Guang was lying on the bed, his face flushed, and the body heat in his body had not completely subsided. He was panting slightly, and his chest was rising and falling.
Fu Guang said: "Mother, I want to drink porridge."
"Okay, I'll ask someone to make porridge."
Then Li Wei immediately gave the order. She touched Fu Guang's forehead and said worriedly: "It's still a little hot."
Fu Guang suddenly said coquettishly to Li Wei: "I want my mother to show off to you."
"This child..." Li Wei smiled helplessly. She leaned down, blew gently on Fu Guang's forehead, and said softly: "Recover in peace, my mother will be with you."
Only when he is sick will Fu Guang behave more like a child and show his fragile side in front of Li Wei.
Fu Guang's appetite was not very good these days because he was ill, so Li Wei asked the imperial kitchen to serve some light and easy-to-digest porridge. Sweet almond porridge was made in the kitchen. After Li Wei coaxed it for a long time, Fu Guang managed to eat half a bowl.
Although there is no shortage of people to serve in Hanyuan Palace, Li Wei does many things personally. He stays in front of Fu Guang all night long, adds quilts to Fu Guang in the middle of the night, brings him water, and makes him wake up conveniently.
Even the wet nurse next to Fu Guang said: "Your Majesty, you are so attentive, even more attentive than the slaves."
Li Wei said: "He is young, and it will be even more uncomfortable when he is sick."
In the afternoon, Zhao Qian came to Hanyuan Hall to visit Fu Guang. Fu Guang had already gone to bed, and Li Wei was doing needlework in front of the bed. She heard the footsteps and didn't pay attention at first. It wasn't until someone stood next to her that she looked up and saw that it was Zhao Qian coming.
Why did he come here so quietly, and the palace maids and eunuchs didn't even know to report him
"How is he, Your Majesty?"
Li Wei immediately made a silence gesture, then turned around and went to another room.
Zhao Qian raised the curtain for himself, looked inside, and saw that Fu Guang was sleeping soundly. After a while, he put down the curtain again, and then followed Li Wei to another room.
Li Wei sat on the edge of the Kang, and there was no one else in the room.
"Your Majesty, is his illness getting better?"
Li Wei said: "Still recovering, why did you come suddenly?"
Zhao Qian naturally said: "I came to see if our emperor is feeling better. He has also fallen behind in his homework and is worried about when to let him go to school again."
Li Wei's face became a little unhappy: "He is already lying down, and you still force him to study?"
"It's not about coercion. He is the emperor carrying the people of the world on his shoulders. I hope he can understand this truth."
"I know you want him to shoulder the heavy responsibility as soon as possible, but this matter cannot be rushed, it must be done slowly. Children will rebel if they are pushed too hard, and then it will be even more troublesome. Don't be too aggressive. It's harsh. Although he is the emperor, he is still a child who is not even seven years old. You are now the regent and help him rule the world. The burden is on your shoulders. It will take several years to give up. Say it again.”
The two of them had had a lot of conflicts over the matter of being emperors. After the two of them talked about it, Zhao Qian no longer bothered Li Wei. He didn't want to mention the emperor's affairs to Li Wei anymore, and instead said: "The third child came to see me, and I made it clear. I hope he can understand. Everyone has made it clear, and maybe he won't be able to calm down." Well, you and the emperor must be careful these days."
"Well, I know. But I've been thinking about one thing in the past two days. Instead of waiting, how about taking the initiative?"
Zhao Qian saw Li Wei's intense gaze and said, "What do you have in mind?"
Li Wei got up first and walked to the door. He called the maid who was waiting in front of him and told him: "Keep a good guard. Don't let anyone break in. No matter who you are, you must report it."
After the assignments were made, Li Wei sat back again. She asked Zhao Qian to sit on the other side, with a kang table between them. Both of them lowered their voices and exchanged opinions.
After hearing Li Wei's plan, Zhao Qian frowned and said, "No, it's too risky."
"It will take a strong dose of medicine, otherwise the enemy will show his true form. Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will only dare to take action if I am confident."
Zhao Qian grabbed Li Wei's hand in desperation and said anxiously: "There are so many ways, but why do you have to take the risk? I don't agree, so I'll think of other ways. I'm afraid that something will happen to you again, or something unexpected will happen to you again." If so, I’m afraid I won’t be able to keep up with you.”
Li Weisheng took his hand back and said firmly: "That's it, the prince just needs to cooperate with me to perform this play well. But you are a born actor, and any play is easy for you. right?"
Zhao Qian was worried that if something happened to Li Wei, he would lose her forever.
He also wanted to persuade Li Wei to give up this idea, but the palace maid standing guard outside suddenly informed: "The noble concubine, the concubine Qi, and the concubine Dun are here to visit the emperor."
Li Wei patted Zhao Qian's hand gently and said, "You wait here for a while, I will take them to the house over there. You can go again. It is always bad to encounter them."
Zhao Qian asked again: "Have you really decided, Queen Mother?"
Li Wei nodded: "I have decided that I can no longer sit back and wait in fear."
Seeing the determination on Li Wei's face, Zhao Qian said helplessly: "Isn't it just acting? This is what I'm best at."
Zhao Qian finally agreed, and Li Wei felt relieved and said, "Then I'll go there first."
"Well, you must take care of yourself."
Li Wei walked out first, and after passing the corner, he saw Concubine Jinggui and others already going upstairs. Concubine Jinggui walked in the front, and Li Wei stood there without moving. Concubine Jinggui bowed to Li Wei first, and Li Wei said: "The emperor has fallen asleep recently, so he'd better go sit in the room to the west first."
Concubine Jinggui agreed and followed Li Wei to the house on the west side. Concubine Dun was walking at the end. She walked slowly. Then she heard something moving and looked back, only to see someone. The figure flashed past quickly, and she was startled, almost shouting, but then thought that the figure seemed a bit familiar, like the regent.
Is the regent here? She was filled with doubts. The regent also came to see the emperor
