"Someone, go get the doctor!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Lianyun rushed in from the door with the imperial physician, her little face full of anxiety. "Your Majesty, the imperial physician is here!" As soon as the emperor left, she went to the imperial hospital without hesitation, and just happened to catch up.
"Hurry! Go and take a look!" Fu Yuheng said anxiously. He rarely panicked like this.
The imperial physician nodded and said yes, then took a few steps and came to Shen Qingwan's bedside.
"Your Majesty!" He removed his fingers from Shen Qingwan's wrist and turned around to bow. "I'm afraid that the virtuous concubine has caught a cold, and coupled with the depression in her heart, it has led to insufficient qi and blood. Please don't worry, Your Majesty. I will prescribe medicine for the virtuous concubine right away. It won't take a few days for her to recover. During this period, I hope that the virtuous concubine will not eat greasy food, and eat more light vegetables."
The doctor left, and Fu Yuheng came to the bed and tucked the quilt for her. Suddenly, he realized that he seemed to care too much about her, so he paused, frowned, and stood up to leave.
But when he reached the door, he seemed to have thought of something and called Lianyun to his side, "Take good care of your queen. Just tell Eunuch Sun if you need anything." After he finished speaking, he never looked back.
Lianyun pursed her lips, unable to guess the emperor's thoughts, and stopped thinking about it, concentrating on taking care of the pale Shen Qingwan. She didn't know what the queen had done wrong to have to suffer like this.
"You! How can you be so stupid!" Compared to the desolate courtyard of Shen Qingwan, Liu Churong's place seemed very lively.
With a "pop!" sound, five fingerprints appeared on La Mei's face. La Mei lowered her head with tears in her eyes. "What if this matter involves me?"
At this point, Lamei felt very aggrieved. She didn't know the emperor would come at this time! But she knew that she couldn't say this. If she did, she would be punished even more severely.
"Did you just say that vixen is sick?" After the anger in his heart subsided, he thought about what La Mei had just said.
"To answer your Majesty, yes." La Mei responded in a low voice, not daring to say anything more for fear of being slapped again.
"Great! This must be something that even God can't stand! Look at her lying sick in bed now, how can she fight with me!"
Liu Churong laughed a few times, and in the blink of an eye, his expression became very sinister, and his eyes were fixed on the window, as if Shen Qingwan was there. After a few breaths, he calmed down again, as if nothing had happened.
"Sister Xianfei is ill. As her elder sister, I have to show some concern for her, right?" She sat down and beckoned Lamei over. "Put on some gorgeous makeup for me!"
Her yard was not far from Shen Qingwan's yard, just a quarter of an hour away.
"Greetings, Madam Concubine!"
"Huh? Isn't this Concubine Qi? Why are you here?" It was just a coincidence that as he was walking, he saw Concubine Qi hiding in the rockery.
"What? You're not letting us see each other?" Qiu Shui had been standing in front of Li Ruotong, which made her suspect that there was something fishy going on.
"Don't worry, Imperial Concubine. I can handle my own problems." Li Ruotong pushed Qiu Shui away and walked out of the rockery, tears still evident on her face. "I'm a little tired, so I'll go back first. Thank you Imperial Concubine for your concern. Qiu Shui, let's go."
Liu Churong stamped his feet in anger, shook his sleeves, and walked towards Shen Qingwan's yard again. I don't know if it's because I didn't check the almanac before going out today, and I ran into obstacles everywhere.
"Your Highness, please stay. You are not feeling well today, and the Emperor has ordered that no outsiders are allowed to disturb you." As soon as she walked to the front of the courtyard, Liu Churong was turned away again.
“Empress, this…” La Mei on the side pursed her lips.
"Hmph! Go back to the palace!" Liu Churong's face was alternately blue and purple. She was favored, but they dared to treat her like this! She must remember what happened today. If she is neglected one day, don't blame her for being cruel! Her beautiful face was distorted, and the palace people avoided her when they saw it.
Concubine Liu seems to be in a bad mood today. She has to hide away quickly, otherwise if she is accidentally affected, she will be punished.
This matter inevitably reached the ears of the Queen Mother. She paused stringing beads in her hand, opened her eyes and looked up at the sky, and sighed. "It's all fate!"
Shen Qingwan was sitting on the bed, she had actually woken up after the emperor and the imperial physician left, and Qiu Shui had actually come over just now. It was just that no one saw it at that time.
Ruotong, oh Ruotong, what should I do
"Ahem..."
After lowering her head and coughing a few times, Lianyun hurriedly handed over the water. "My queen, don't worry, you are still sick!" Her queen is always like this, too kind-hearted. In this harem, she can hardly take care of herself, and she has to take care of others.
Lianyun curled her lips privately and said no more. As a servant, she was very worried, but her queen still refused to listen.
"Lianyun, help me guard the door, I want to take a nap." Her body was a little weak after all, and she felt extremely tired after just a short while.
"Yes!" Lianyun responded and closed the door as she walked out.
Li Ruotong left the rockery and returned to her room, feeling annoyed, but she had no place to vent. "Qiu Shui, what did Sister Xianfei say?"
Qiu Shui was fixing Li Ruotong's makeup while shaking her head with a confused look in her eyes. She said, "No, I just told you to be patient. Please forgive me for being so stupid that I can't understand what you meant."
"Did she really say that? Well, let's just leave it at that for now." Li Ruotong was helpless, but she felt much more at ease. After all, there was someone willing to help her.
Qiu Shui was confused as she listened at the side. She had no idea what the two were talking about, and she didn't want to ask too much about her masters' affairs.
Time flies by, and after Shen Qingwan recovered from her illness, she liked to go out for a walk more and more. Maybe it was because she was not feeling well a few days ago and was always bored in the house, so she was willing to go out for a walk now. When she had nothing to do, she would go to Li Ruotong to talk about her personal matters, but because she was afraid of being criticized, she didn't go every day.
The old queen mother hadn't come to see her these past few days, so it was quiet anyway. But Liu Churong had been a lot more well-behaved these past few days, and even her visits to the queen to pay respects seemed less provocative. The only drawback was that the emperor hadn't come to see her again except for the one time when she first fell ill.
Alas, I don't know what's going on. Obviously, if he doesn't come, I can avoid a lot of trouble, but I just feel uncomfortable. From time to time, I will look out the window and think of that person. Could it be that I'm really in love with him? This is absolutely not allowed.
