"What are you thinking about? Why is there no one serving in the room?"
The voice came from behind. Ye Jun put down the teacup and turned around, only to see Ning Chen coming in.
"The emperor is here. I ordered them to go downstairs and prepare dinner. I didn't know the emperor would come so early." Ye Jun smiled.
Ning Chen raised his eyebrows, "Why, do you still dislike me for coming too early?"
"I didn't say that, but the emperor said it himself." Ye Jun snorted.
Because of her retreat, the assassination attempt did not become a big deal. Ning Chen always felt guilty, so he did not come during this period.
When I came here today, I saw that Ye Jun was still the same as before. Even though I still felt guilty, I didn't feel so uncomfortable anymore.
He held her hand and said, "I missed you, so I came early."
When Ye Jun heard his address, she was stunned for a moment, and her ears blushed, "Your Majesty, why do you call me like this? It's so embarrassing."
In fact, she was not really shy in her heart, she was just a little uncomfortable. After all, Ning Chen was a handsome man. Who could remain calm when he called her that
Fortunately, she has good self-control. If it were any other concubine, she would probably be so distracted by the word "Qingqing" that she would lose her mind.
Thinking of the concubines beside him, Ye Jun calmed down again. Yes, the person in front of him was the emperor.
"Is it not good?" Ning Chen also blushed, but pretended to be calm and continued to lead the person. "As the poem says, when I am drunk, I call you my dear. I think these two words are very good. From now on, I will only call you you."
Ning Chen felt more and more that Ye Jun's place was different from other places. This kind of feeling of getting along with others was something he had never experienced before.
Even when I was with Princess Wende before, I never had this kind of subtle feeling.
I just think this woman is beautiful and attractive no matter what.
Ning Chen even secretly lamented that he was not a foolish ruler. If he did not have to restrain himself, he would have been too partial to his wife.
It was precisely because of this that he was unable to conduct a thorough investigation into Ye Jun's assassination this time, and he felt so guilty that he dared not see anyone.
"Since Your Majesty likes it, then you may call me that. But Your Majesty has said to call me only me, and you may not break your promise." Ye Jun raised her chin proudly, with a faint blush on her face.
Such a coquettish look makes people love her even more.
After dinner, Ning Chen showed no intention of leaving. Ye Jun was not going to push him out, so he ordered someone to help him wash up.
Although her arm still needed to be nursed, there were no obvious wounds, so she could still touch water.
The servants brought a wooden barrel that was big enough for two people to use together. This was Ning Chen's idea.
After asking the person to leave, he carried the person inside.
The clothes were taken off. This place was not as wide as Shuangyan Pond, so the two of them were pressed against each other. Even someone as bold as Ye Jun blushed.
Ning Chen asked her to turn her back, raised his hand and stroked the girl's smooth back, from her shoulders to her waist, following the mark.
The bruise on the girl's left shoulder was still there, and it was particularly eye-catching against her fair skin.
"Does it still hurt?" Ning Chen narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice.
Ye Jun's eyes flickered, "It doesn't hurt now, but it will hurt when it hurts."
"I won't do that again." The man said in a hoarse voice.
Suddenly, I felt a heat on my back. It was Ning Chen who pressed his forehead against mine. Our body temperatures intertwined, and the mist lingering around us seemed to gradually move towards my heart.
Ye Jun closed her eyes and bit the tip of her tongue lightly. The pain made her wake up.
You can't lose your heart in this palace.
Ning Chen didn't notice any of this, he just hugged her again, his heart was burning with anger, but when he saw the wound on the girl's shoulder, he was afraid of hurting her.
He hugged the person tightly and stood up immediately, "I will go out first, and ask the servant to come in and serve you."
"Your Majesty, why should you be so anxious?" Ye Jun turned around and reached out to pull the person back.
Their eyes met, and the throbbing in Ning Chen's eyes was unbearable, "Qingqing, you are not behaving well now, don't cry later."
After he finished speaking, he picked them up, took off his robe and wrapped them both in it, then strode towards the bed.
Those who are attentive can always appreciate the taste of it better.
That night, Ning Chen tried to restrain himself, but failed. He only stopped when the person in his arms was completely out of strength.
Ye Jun just felt that this man might be crazy, but she also felt that Ning Chen seemed different from before. He was passionate before, but tonight there seemed to be something more.
But I didn't have time to think about it. I was so tired that I was even carried to and from the bathroom.
They were both very tired and soon fell asleep.
But he didn't sleep for long. After only an hour and a half, he was hurriedly woken up by Yuan Jiu outside.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, in Changchun Palace, the eldest princess suddenly had a fever, she vomited a lot, and couldn't drink the medicine. The Concubine Shu was worried... but she thought it was the plague, so she sent someone to inform the emperor."
Ning Chen opened his eyes, feeling extremely sleepy and having a headache. However, when he heard that it concerned the child, he immediately stood up.
Ye Jun was also woken up and sat up.
"I will not accompany the emperor. If it is really a plague, it will be more contagious if there are too many people."
"Well, just stay here, nothing will happen." Ning Chen patted her back gently.
After leaving Yuxiu Pavilion, he immediately asked Yuan Jiu to pass the message to various places that until it was confirmed whether it was a plague, no palace servants were allowed to go to Changchun Palace at will to avoid infection.
After this order was given, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Who isn't afraid of death? If it really is a plague, what would happen if I got infected
But no one dares to speak up. What if the emperor thinks you only care about yourself and don’t value the royal heir
Although the news had been passed on, the empress, as the legitimate wife and mother, still went with him.
As soon as the two arrived, Concubine Shu knelt on the ground and cried, "Your Majesty, Jiayu suddenly had a fever. I don't know why. She was fine this morning, but now she is vomiting due to a fever... Wuuwuwu... Jiayu is still so young."
"Alright, Concubine Shu, you get up first. If you have anything to say, ask the imperial physician to take a look first. The emperor and I are both here."
The queen frowned slightly and waved her hand to signal Su'e to help her up.
Concubine Shu was so anxious that she didn't want to hear these words. She pushed Su'e's hand away and glared at the queen, "The queen is not Jiayu's biological mother, so of course she is not anxious. The queen may be hoping that something bad will happen to my Jiayu!"
"Shut up!" Ning Chen shouted angrily.
Shufei realized that she had said something wrong and immediately lowered her head and dared not speak.
"The Queen is the legal mother, and naturally Jiayu's mother. I understand that you lost your composure for a moment because you were worried about your child. I won't bother with you this time. In the future, you are not allowed to criticize the Queen!" Ning Chen's eyes were dark.
The queen looked unhappy. She took a deep breath to suppress the annoyance in her heart and spoke slowly, "Shufei is also too worried about the child. I don't mind it. Your Majesty, please let Shufei get up."
Ning Chen nodded, and Concubine Shu's maid stepped forward to help her up.
At this moment the imperial physician had also arrived. He was Doctor Liu, who was most expert in pediatrics. He did not dare to delay for even a minute and immediately went in to take the patient's pulse.
Soon, Fuzhi from the Cining Palace also arrived.
This was the first time that the Empress Dowager showed such concern for the royal heir. In the past, no matter who it was, she would only call someone the next day.
I guess I have finally figured it out a little.
