After Long Xiaoyuan was able to move, he immediately became more interested in exercising.
What could be more satisfying than being able to walk on your own
God knows how miserable he has been these days as a disabled person!
When Shi Qingzhou came in from the outside, what he saw was of course Shi Qingzhou exercising.
Shi Qingzhou walked over, "Don't be too tired."
Long Xiaoyuan smiled and shook his head. "Don't worry, it's fine."
Shi Qingzhou walked over and held the opponent's arm.
Long Xiaoyuan still shook his head. "No, I'm fine, just walk around by yourself."
Shi Qingzhou frowned slightly, but in the end he didn't say anything, but stood by and watched Long Xiao move far away.
Long Xiaoyuan practiced for a while, and then stopped.
Long Xiaoyuan wiped the sweat from his forehead and was about to wipe his hands when Shi Qingzhou handed over the wet handkerchief.
Long Xiaoyuan took it with a smile. "Qingzhou is really understanding."
Shi Qingzhou watched Long Xiaoyuan wash his hands before handing back the handkerchief to him.
Long Xiaoyuan smiled, and was about to say something when someone outside said that Concubine Rou was coming.
Long Xiaoyuan and Shi Qingzhou looked at each other in surprise.
The main reason is that a maid next to this woman, Concubine Rou, died in a well. After she said she committed suicide, this woman has always been very peaceful, and she never talked much, and never joined the emperor.
It seems a little strange to take the initiative now.
Shi Qingzhou said: "Concubine Rou has been keeping a low profile since the death of Long Xiaoyuan's palace maid, why did she come here?"
Long Xiaoyuan touched his chin, "This is also something that I find strange."
"Then do you want to meet?" Shi Qingzhou looked at Long Xiaoyuan and asked.
She blinked and asked Shi Qingzhou back. "What about Qingzhou?"
Shi Qingzhou shook his head. "I don't know, let's see what happens to her."
"Hmm..." Long Xiaoyuan touched his chest. "It's still rare for the court to know that I'm about to recover, but she doesn't necessarily know the news. Although the Kunning Palace is already monolithic, there are exceptions to everything... I suspect my current situation, and anyone who wants to know knew."
When Shi Qingzhou heard this, his eyes sank slightly.
Long Xiaoyuan didn't take it too seriously. "You don't have to worry about Qingzhou, if you know it or not, it's actually the same thing, it's okay."
Shi Qingzhou pursed his lips. "So what do you want?"
"I'll see you when I meet you. It doesn't matter. If this woman really has any purpose, you have to see her to find out."
Shi Qingzhou pondered for a while, but finally said nothing against it.
However, Long Xiaoyuan still lay down on the bed, but leaning against the back of the bed, he was in a half-lying state.
Shi Qingzhou let him in after covering him with a quilt.
Concubine Rou came in.
"The concubine has met the emperor and the empress."
The noble concubine Rou's voice was gentle and gentle, so the former Long Xiaoyuan still liked her very much.
Like Concubine Shan, these two women were the most favored women in the past.
It's just a pity that the current Long Xiaoyuan is no longer the previous Long Xiaoyuan. He chose a light boat, and these women in the harem can only do this.
The most important thing is, none of these women really love Long Xiaoyuan, do they
What he loves is nothing more than Long Xiaoyuan's identity and status.
Long Xiaoyuan didn't speak, so it was Shi Qingzhou who spoke.
"Concubine Rou, get up, the emperor can sit down now, but he can't talk much yet."
"Your Majesty..." Concubine Rou's eyes were filled with distress. If it was before, that Emperor Long Xiaoyuan would definitely hug her in distress. But the current Long Xiaoyuan... Obviously not.
Long Xiaoyuan directly ignored Concubine Rou's pitiful, distressed, and tender eyes.
Shi Qingzhou's gaze sank slightly, but he didn't speak.
Concubine Rou almost "fluttered" to the front of the bed, and said with a heartache: "The Emperor looks like this, the heart of this concubine hurts..."
Long Xiaoyuan blinked, but still didn't speak.
Shi Qingzhou finally opened his mouth lightly. "Concubine Rou, the imperial physician ordered that the emperor should not be too emotional right now, and I ask Concubine Rou to restrain her emotions so as not to affect the emperor's dragon body."
Concubine Rou was startled when she heard the words, and her face was filled with panic.
"Your majesty... I'm sorry, my concubine, I don't know."
Long Xiaoyuan blinked, and finally said a few words slowly. "It's okay... you... what's the matter?"
Shi Qingzhou also looked at Concubine Rou, who took out a fragrant handkerchief from her bosom and wiped her nose.
The scent made Long Xiaoyuan instinctively feel a little uncomfortable.
Shi Qingzhou also frowned, and he fixedly looked at Concubine Rou. "What kind of spice is used for Concubine Rou's handkerchief?"
Concubine Rou was a little puzzled. "It's just the usual orchid fragrance, what's wrong?"
Shi Qingzhou pursed her lips slightly, "Orchid fragrance? It seems to be much stronger than orchid fragrance."
Concubine Rou still looked puzzled.
Long Xiaoyuan coughed and said slowly, "You... what's the matter?"
Concubine Rou immediately said: "Your Majesty, my concubine's mother is seriously ill. This concubine...concubine asks the emperor to let this concubine go back to see mother... see mother...for the last time."
Speaking of this, Concubine Rou's tears fell again.
Shi Qingzhou and Long Xiaoyuan were slightly taken aback when they heard the words.
Concubine Rou began to cry. "Your Majesty, this concubine knows that this concubine's request is too much... But, this concubine only has this mother... Mother has loved this concubine very much since she was a child... Now that her mother is seriously ill, my father asked someone to bring in a message, saying yes Mother wants to see the concubine for the last time, concubine, concubine... "
Concubine Rou began to cry "woo woo".
Long Xiaoyuan looked at Shi Qingzhou.
In fact, in my memory, concubines like Concubine Rou and Concubine Shan go back to visit relatives once or twice a year.
Because at that time, Concubine Rou and Concubine Shan were very favored.
Therefore, the predecessor approved them to go back once or twice a year.
But after that, after the queen Shi Qingzhou was favored and the emperor stopped stepping into the harem, Concubine Rou and the other concubines who were originally favored never went back.
The emperor doesn't even set foot in the harem anymore, they are all out of favor, how can they go back
This time, Concubine Rou begged to come over, but she directly said that she wanted to go back and see her mother for the last time... This request was impossible to refuse.
It's just that Concubine Rou's father is a second-rank official in the court and works in the Ministry of Officials.
It seems that he didn't hear about his wife's serious illness...
Seeing Long Xiaoyuan looking at him, Shi Qingzhou said calmly: "This palace and the emperor both know about this matter, Concubine Rou should go back first."
Concubine Rou looked at Long Xiaoyuan pitifully upon hearing this.
Long Xiaoyuan felt a little awkward, and was also afraid that this matter might be tricky, so he turned his eyes away and pretended that he didn't hear anything.
Long Xiaoyuan is like this, and Concubine Rou probably knows that if she stays any longer, she will be making fun of herself.
So Concubine Rou bid farewell with tears in her eyes.
After the person left, Long Xiaoyuan stopped pretending and sat upright. He doesn't speak slowly anymore.
"Qingzhou, do you know about her mother's serious illness?"
Shi Qingzhou shook his head. "No."
"This is a little strange. Her father is a second-rank official. If the mistress in the family is seriously ill, there will be a little bit of news, and you don't even know about it?"
Shi Qingzhou fell silent.
"Besides, we have sent shadow guards to monitor the movements of the ministers in the DPRK. The shadow guards in charge of that person will contact them to see if this matter is true or not, and what's going on in his residence." Long Xiaoyuan said again.
Shi Qingzhou nodded. "Okay, that's what I mean too."
Afterwards, Shi Qingzhou went out and sent shadow guards to investigate.
About half an hour later, the news came back. In the Shen residence, the mistress was indeed seriously ill, but it happened in the last two days, even today was only two days.
The mistress seemed to have fallen down suddenly, and she was still in good health before. Now, that Lord Shen, the father of Concubine Rou, has invited several famous doctors in the imperial city to see him, but those few Famous doctors have been sent out in these two days...
In fact, the shadow guard reported this matter yesterday.
However, now that Shi Qingzhou is helping Long Xiaoyuan deal with the court affairs, he is also filtering the messages sent by those shadow guards, but he didn't notice this matter for a while.
Shi Qingzhou went to look through the message sent by the shadow guard yesterday, and it was indeed recorded.
After telling Long Xiaoyuan about this matter in detail, Shi Qingzhou frowned slightly. "Is this a sudden serious illness? I don't know what happened."
"Hmm..." Long Xiaoyuan also pondered for a while. "There is indeed a problem... What's wrong with that lady?"
"The famous doctors who went there couldn't tell." Shi Qingzhou said.
Long Xiaoyuan stroked his chin, which seemed to be his signature movement now when he was thinking.
Shi Qingzhou watched Long Xiaoyuan think, and sat down on the edge of the bed.
Long Xiaoyuan thought for a while, and said: "No matter if it's tricky or not, since she wants to go back, let her go back once, but we have to keep an eye on her, and in addition, bring the imperial physician in the palace there for two days. Let’s see what’s wrong with that lady.”
Shi Qingzhou thought about it and nodded. "Well, that's fine."
Long Xiaoyuan waved his hand. "Let's leave it at that."
Shi Qingzhou said: "Send Zhang Yuan there?"
"No need?" Long Xiaoyuan said. "Let Imperial Physician Liu and Imperial Physician Xu go."
Shi Qingzhou pursed his lips. "That's good, too. Dr. Xu's medical skills are not bad."
Long Xiaoyuan smiled. "Qingzhou, the imperial physicians in our palace are much better than most of the ordinary doctors, so we should be content."
Shi Qingzhou smiled slightly when he heard the words, but didn't speak.
"Someone like Zhang Yuan... Well, they're like miracle doctors." Long Xiaoyuan said again.
Shi Qingzhou agrees with this statement.
"Well, Doctor Zhang is indeed very powerful."
"Haha." Long Xiaoyuan laughed. "So Qingzhou is also very powerful. I know that Qingzhou has already subdued Doctor Zhang."
Shi Qingzhou paused, glanced at Long Xiaoyuan, and smiled.
Long Xiaoyuan took Shi Qingzhou's hand, and Shi Qingzhou watched the other party wrap his hand with his own, and then heard Long Xiaoyuan say: "Qingzhou's vision is always good, it's because I was blind before."
Shi Qingzhou blinked. "You really think so?"
"Of course." Long Xiaoyuan said firmly. "Otherwise, why didn't I know about such a good light boat before?"
Shi Qingzhou raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
Long Xiaoyuan took Shi Qingzhou's hand and let him lean towards him.
These days, they have been unable to move very much, and neither of them has been intimate.
It's just that he can't sleep with the person he likes when he sleeps at night, which is really too painful for Long Xiaoyuan.
So, after pulling Shi Qingzhou to let the other party lean towards him, Long Xiaoyuan kissed him.
Shi Qingzhou's eyelids flickered slightly, and then he closed his eyes cooperatively.
Afterwards, Long Xiaoyuan couldn't help deepening the kiss.
It was just because he was still not as agile as before, so although Long Xiaoyuan deepened the kiss, he couldn't do any other moves.
But even so, in the end when the two separated, each other's breathing became heavier.
Seeing that he could influence Shi Qingzhou so easily, Long Xiaoyuan was very happy.
Shi Qingzhou's ears and neck were dyed a touch of pink, and that charming pink made Long Xiaoyuan almost unable to control himself!
"Qingzhou." Long Xiaoyuan's voice was somewhat hoarse. "What a pity..."
Shi Qingzhou knows what the other party is sorry about, but it's a pity that he can't move freely now, so that he can't hug...
Shi Qingzhou slowly looked away. "almost done."
His queen is obviously shy!
Long Xiaoyuan suddenly became extremely excited, but so what
Alas, it's not human to be able to see what you can't eat... It's not human!
After coughing twice, he was really impulsive and couldn't end it, so Long Xiaoyuan restrained himself, and hurriedly changed the subject after coughing.
"Qingzhou, what time is it?"
Shi Qingzhou looked at it and said: "In half an hour, I can have lunch."
"Oh, time flies so fast." Long Xiaoyuan shrugged his shoulders.
Shi Qingzhou also cooperated with the other party to change the subject.
Half an hour later, after lunch, Long Xiaoyuan started today's medicinal bath.
On the other side, Concubine Rou has brought a bunch of people out in a fair manner...
In Concubine Rou's soft sedan chair, a court lady waited on her.
"Your Majesty, put your things away." Although the palace maid called "My Lady", but that tone, perhaps because there were no "outsiders" here, so there was no sign of respect at all.
The palace lady still held a pack of medicinal powder in her hand.
Concubine Rou bit her lip, and took the package of medicine powder, her face was a little pale.
The pale-faced Concubine Rou said: "I have done everything you asked me to do...you let him go."
"Hehe." The maid smiled. "Your Majesty, please don't worry, we will treat that young master well, but now Your Majesty still has two things to do. When those two things are done and we have received results, we will definitely let him go. Please rest assured, Your Majesty, we Your reputation, your empress should believe it."
Concubine Rou pursed her lips tightly when she heard the words, but she didn't say anything in the end.
The maid didn't say anything when she saw this, and the sedan chair went all the way to the outside of the palace...
Long Xiaoyuan continued his medicinal bath today after lunch.
It's just that, I don't know if it's his illusion, he always feels... Today's medicated bath seems to be a little different from the usual one.
This weird feeling just disappeared in a flash, and Long Xiaoyuan couldn't grasp anything in the end.
When he was about to come up, a burst of heartache spread in his heart. Long Xiaoyuan was stunned for a moment, then his face turned pale, and he supported the edge of the barrel with his palm.
Shi Qingzhou was always by Long Xiaoyuan's side every time he took a medicine bath, so he was taken aback when he saw this, and immediately supported him.
"Your Majesty! What's wrong with you?"
Long Xiaoyuan shook his head.
Now, the medicated bath is carried out every day, but the acupuncture is carried out every morning, so Zhang Yuan is not here now, but outside.
Seeing that Long Xiaoyuan's expression was not right, Shi Qingzhou hurriedly said, "I'll ask Zhang Yuan to come in and have a look."
Long Xiaoyuan shook his head. "Wait until I get dressed."
Shi Qingzhou nodded, then quickly went to get a towel, wiped Long Xiaoyuan off, put on pajamas for him, and carried him to the bed.
Afterwards, Zhang Yuan was quickly called in.
"Your Majesty, let me take a pulse." Zhang Yuan said immediately without delay.
Long Xiaoyuan nodded, sat on the bed and stretched out his hand.
After some diagnosis and treatment, Zhang Yuan frowned slightly.
Seeing this, Shi Qingzhou immediately said: "What's going on?"
Doctor Zhang did not answer immediately, but continued to take the pulse carefully.
After a while, Zhang Yuan said: "The emperor's pulse condition does not seem to be abnormal, but... it seems to be a little wrong. May I ask the emperor how he feels about the medicinal bath today."
Long Xiaoyuan pondered for a while. "Specifically... it seems to be a little different from before, but I don't know how it is different. When I got up, I suddenly felt a sharp pain in my heart. But now I don't feel that way anymore."
Physician Zhang frowned even more upon hearing this.
Shi Qingzhou also thumped in his heart. "what happened?"
Long Xiaoyuan looked at Zhang Yuan, "Is there anything abnormal about the pulse condition?"
"There is no special abnormality, just a little weaker than usual, but the emperor has not fully recovered now, and this pulse condition is also normal."
Having said that, Zhang Yuan frowned even tighter. "But logically speaking, the condition of the medicated bath will only get better day by day, and now I won't feel pain..."
Shi Qingzhou pursed his lips. "Call two more imperial physicians to have a look, and you will have a consultation together."
"Yes!" Zhang Yuan said immediately.
Soon, not long after, two more imperial physicians were called into the palace.
The three chief physicians consulted together, but they didn't come to any useful conclusions.
Long Xiaoyuan couldn't help but said: "Perhaps... that brief sharp pain was just an accident?"
Zhang Yuan instinctively felt something was wrong, and Shi Qingzhou also felt that it would not be as simple as an accident. Suddenly, Shi Qingzhou thought of the arrival of Concubine Rou not long ago, and the fragrance of orchids.
Long Xiaoyuan's face changed slightly, he sent the other two imperial physicians out, leaving only Zhang Yuan, and then, Shi Qingzhou said: "Does the Emperor still remember Concubine Rou?"
Long Xiaoyuan was taken aback for a moment, then suddenly thought of that matter.
"That... orchid fragrance?" Long Xiaoyuan said.
Zhang Yuan didn't know about Concubine Rou's arrival, "What orchid fragrance?"
Shi Qingzhou pursed her lips and said: "Concubine Rou came here today. She said that her mother was seriously ill at home and she wanted to go back to see her mother for the last time. The emperor agreed and sent two imperial doctors to follow. When she was here, Concubine Rou I took out a brocade handkerchief to wipe away my tears, the emperor and I both smelled the fragrance, it was a bit pungent, Concubine Rou said it was the fragrance of orchids."
"Orchid fragrance?" Zhang Yuan frowned fiercely. "If it's just an ordinary orchid scent, it's absolutely impossible to have any impact."
Shi Qingzhou's face sank. "The veil is very likely to be faulty. The emperor had no problems before. After Concubine Rou came, there was a problem with the medicinal bath this time!"
Seeing Shi Qingzhou's angry expression, Long Xiaoyuan immediately said: "Qingzhou don't worry too much, maybe this is not the case."
Shi Qingzhou said coldly: "Now that woman's sedan chair hasn't arrived at home, I'll have someone chase it back."
Long Xiaoyuan paused, and said: "If there is really any problem, let her go back to follow the vine..."
"But now even Doctor Zhang can't diagnose what's wrong with the emperor's body, we can't take any risks!" Shi Qingzhou said decisively.
Seeing Shi Qingzhou's appearance, Long Xiaoyuan waved to Zhang Yuan, "Doctor Zhang, go out first."
Zhang Yuan hurried out, not daring to listen to the quarrel between the two most noble people in the world.
