Chapter 428: stubborn

Views:

With the support of the eunuch, Fu Guang walked slowly in the yard. The pain in his leg seemed to be much better. He said to his left and right: "Let me go, I can come on my own."

Fu Guang wanted to use his own strength to walk steadily and reach his mother.

He tugged on the hem of his clothes tightly. It was the first time that walking felt so difficult. After finally taking a step, the pain in the injured area clearly hit him. Fu Guang took a breath.

In half a month, he will be seven years old. At seven years old, he will be a little adult. He will have to stand up on his own strength.

Fu Guang tried to move again. He walked very slowly like an old man, and every step was extremely difficult.

Zhang Chaoen handed over a crutch and said: "Your Majesty, it will be more convenient to have this."

"I don't need it, take it away." Fu Guang was annoyed and shook Zhang Chaoen with his arm. He walked stubbornly. Maybe it was because he was too panicked. He didn't move smoothly here and fell down. Zhang Chaoen beside him didn't even have time to reach out to help him.

"Your Majesty! You must be careful."

Fu Guang, who fell to the ground, beat the ground in annoyance and refused to be pulled up by the people around him. He started to cry while beating the ground. Seeing this, everyone felt helpless. Zhang Chaoen hurriedly called a young eunuch and whispered to him: "Go and ask the Queen Mother to come over."

The young eunuch and others hurried to Chongqing Palace. As soon as they left the tower, they saw the Queen Mother's carriage walking towards here. The young eunuch hurriedly stepped forward to salute and ask for instructions.

"Queen Mother Qi, Your Majesty, he fell. Please come over."

"Fall... what happened? Why did you fall again when you were fine?" Li Wei almost stood up, his lips trembling, anxious and angry.

The little eunuch hesitated and did not dare to explain, so he had to ask the Queen Mother to come over quickly.

When Li Wei arrived at Chunhua Pavilion, Fu Guang was still on the ground, beating the ground and crying bitterly. The maid and eunuch serving in front of him knelt on the ground. Seeing this situation, Li Wei was obviously a little confused. She walked over and said, "What's going on?"

Fu Guang was feeling frustrated and raised his head when he heard his mother's voice.

"Your Majesty, why can't you get up from the ground?" Li Wei bent down to help Fu Guang. Fu Guang wiped away his tears, but he did not pass his hand over. His face was still full of stubbornness and he wanted to help Fu Guang. With all the strength he had to stand up, his legs were already weak, but with such a fall, the pain naturally increased.

Fu Guang gritted his teeth and stood up. Fortunately, Li Wei was close and stabilized Fu Guang in time, otherwise he would have fallen again. Li Wei saw the crutch on the ground, and she could vaguely guess what happened before. She asked people to carry the spring stool and send Fu Guang back to the house.

Fu Guang's current situation was like a frost-beaten eggplant, wilted and unable to lift up any energy.

Li Wei said in his ear: "Huang Er, you have always been a strong child, even so strong that it makes people feel bad. The queen is watching over you, you don't have to be afraid of anything."

Fu Guang was lying on the spring bench. His height had obviously grown in the past few months, and he might be taller than Li Wei in a few years. Gradually, as a child, he has more ideas. What Li Wei can do is try to understand Fu Guang and respect Fu Guang.

Fu Guang covered his face with his arms, but tears fell quietly. He didn't want his mother to see him cry, so he tried desperately to stop it. The emperor's uncle once told him that a man should not shed tears easily, and told him that a man should be strong. But he couldn't do it at this moment.

After finally arriving at the house, Li Wei asked someone to carry the little emperor to the Arhat bed and put him there. Zhang Chaoen had already sent someone to ask for Dr. Fang.

Li Wei sat in front of him and kept guarding Fu Guang.

"My child, sometimes being strong does not mean being stubborn. Mother hopes that you can stand up with your own strength, but you must also realize that before that time comes, being too eager for quick success will only be counterproductive."

Fu Guang listened without saying a word, taking in some of the Queen Mother's words.

After a while, Fang Zheng came in, and his new apprentice held the medicine box for him.

Fang Zheng was not surprised at all when he saw the Queen Mother, and he gave a big salute first when he came in.

Li Wei said: "It is important to see a doctor. The envoy from Fang Yuan will come and take a look."

Fang Zheng said, "I'm offended." Then he went to lift Fu Guang's trouser legs. He looked carefully and found that nothing could be seen in the injured area, but there was a scrape of skin on the upper knee, and some blood stains were stained on the white trouser legs.

Fang Zheng said respectfully: "Can the emperor move this leg?"

Fu Guang tried to lift the injured leg. He tried very hard, but he couldn't lift it.

Fang Zheng met and understood the general situation.

"The Queen Mother, the Emperor is afraid that he may have twisted his leg again and aggravated the bones that have not fully reset."

After hearing this, Li Wei felt a big stone weighing on her heart. She said to Fang Zheng, "I have no choice but to ask the imperial doctor to worry more."

Fang Zheng said hurriedly: "This is my duty. Queen Mother, you are too polite."

It looked like he was about to get better, but something like this happened again, which really made things worse. Fang Zheng was setting Fu Guang's bones aside. The bone setting was very painful, but Fu Guang gritted his teeth and endured it.

Li Wei felt really distressed when she saw Fu Guang trying to hold back, so he couldn't help fanning Fu Guang and wiping the sweat on his forehead with a handkerchief.

Fang Zheng is worthy of being an old doctor for many years. He is very skilled in his techniques and has already dealt with it in less than half an hour. He then told the emperor: "The emperor needs to rest for some time now. When he slowly recovers, I will meet him every day." Come and have a massage with the emperor."

Li Wei said, "Don't worry, don't worry." Fang Zheng bowed and then stepped back.

After receiving the treatment, Fu Guang lay there quietly. The tears in his eyes had already stopped. He turned his head and looked at Li Wei, apologetically saying: "It's all because of my son and ministers that I have made my mother worry."

Li Wei smiled softly and said, "Then you can recover peacefully and don't let your mother worry."

Fu Guang secretly bit his lip and continued: "Mother, I will definitely stand up again, and then I will stride up to you."

Li smiled, rubbed Fu Guang's face, let Fu Guang have a good rest, and then she went out.

After leaving the emperor's room, Li Wei called Zhang Chaoen for questioning.

"Zhang Banban, tell me truthfully what happened."

When Zhang Chaoen heard about it, he quickly knelt down and apologized to Li Wei: "I deserve death for not taking good care of the emperor."

"Okay, no matter what. I just want to know what happened. Tell the truth."

Zhang Chaoen recounted what had just happened one by one. After hearing this, Li Wei's thoughts were similar to what he had guessed.

She said with a frown: "Our emperor is really stubborn. You don't have much to do with this matter today, but in the future we must try to persuade him more, and we can't let the emperor act as he pleases."
