Chapter 29 Maintenance
It was early morning when we returned to the palace, and Song Zhijie and Chen Yiling had been waiting in the courtyard where Li Jinzhi lived in the outer courtyard.

The night rain was still pattering, Gao Yuan carried Li Jinzhi into the bedroom all the way, Mei Xue followed closely behind.

Li Jinzhi vomited on the bed for a while, Peng Liang and Gao Yuan cleaned up, made him a cup of tea to rinse his mouth, and then brought up the medicinal meal that Mei Xue had prepared in the afternoon.

Li Jinzhi ate half a bowl of medicinal food, and his face gradually eased. Mei Xue asked him what he ate and drank in the palace today. Li Jinzhi lowered his eyes and smiled lightly:

"Uncle Huang is considerate of my long-term residence in Sichuan, and specially ordered the imperial dining room to cook a table of authentic Sichuan cuisine."

Mei Xue, Song Zhijie, and Chen Yiling were all silent after hearing this.

Li Jinzhi's body, not to mention the spicy Sichuan cuisine, even the usual light diet, should be cautious.

Emperor Mingde's care was really subtle to the extreme.

Song Zhijie narrowed his eyes slightly, and asked An Jiang if he was on duty today.

Li Jinzhi handed the jade bowl in his hand to Peng Liang, took the hot kerchief handed over by Gao Yuan, wiped his hands and face, still smiled and said gently:

"Superintendent An probably wasn't on duty today, I didn't see him."

Song Zhijie laughed and said:

"This old fox."

Mei Xue didn't speak from the beginning to the end, she adjusted the ointment, asked Peng Liang to apply it on Li Jinzhi's knee, and went back to the bamboo garden by herself.

It was still raining outside, a woman was waiting with a sedan chair, and Jiu'er was waiting beside her with an umbrella.

It was almost dawn when she fell asleep after washing, but Mei Xue still told Jiu'er to wake her up in an hour.

The genius lighted up slightly, and Mei Xue went to the outer courtyard without caring about her breakfast.

Li Jinzhi slept so deeply that he didn't even notice that Mei Xue sat down beside his bed.

Mei Xue whispered to Peng Liang:

"You send someone to guard outside the gate of the mansion. If someone comes to the palace, try to delay it for a while, and let someone come and tell me first."

Peng Liang nodded hurriedly, and retreated lightly.

The sleeping Li Jinzhi turned over, facing Mei Xue.

Mei Xue looked at him quietly for a while, and the corners of her mouth could not help but curl up slightly.

Since when did this good-looking man make her feel sorry for him and worry about him?

Li Jinzhi kept rubbing his right hand hanging on the edge of the bed, as if trying to grab something.

Mei Xue lowered her eyes, looked at his slender fingers, hesitated for a while, and stretched out her right hand.

Li Jinzhi's slightly cool palm immediately grasped Mei Xue's hand, and moved his head over, putting his face against the back of Mei Xue's hand, and then went back to sleep peacefully.

After sitting like this for half an hour, Gao Yuan walked in and saw Li Jinzhi and Mei Xue holding hands, he immediately turned his face away, bent down beside Mei Xue and said softly:
"Miss Mei, someone has come to the palace. It is Supervisor An, who is going to take the son into the palace."

Mei Xue slowly pulled her hand out of Li Jinzhi's, and whispered to Gao Yuan:
"You go and buy him a cup of tea before you come in, just say that the prince has not slept all night and is currently taking medicine."

Gao Yuan nodded, and walked out lightly.

Mei Xue opened the medicine box on the table, arranged a few things to be used, and then went to the bed and woke Li Jinzhi softly.

The moment he opened his eyes and saw Mei Xue, Li Jinzhi smiled again and said to Mei Xue:

"When did Miss Mei come here? You also slept late last night, so you don't have to come so early."

Mei Xue shook her head, helped Li Jinzhi to sit up, and put two soft pillows behind him before saying softly:
"Superintendent An is here, but you have to rest today, just do as I tell you."

"Okay, I'll listen to your arrangement, thank you Miss Mei."

Li Jinzhi was still smiling, and let Mei Xue apply the medicinal powder on his hands, face and neck.

Finally, Mei Xue took out another pill and put it in Li Jinzhi's sleeve and said:
"Talk to Supervisor An later, when you sniff this sleeve, you will cough hard for a while."

Li Jinzhi nodded, and Mei Xue poured another half bowl of soup from the warm nest and put it on the table beside the bed, then nodded towards Li Jinzhi.

An Jiang is a very kind-looking person, white and fat, smiling like a Maitreya Buddha.

After entering the bedroom, he took a look at Mei Xue standing at the end of the bed, then saluted Li Jinzhi with a smile and said:
"Your Majesty missed your son, and the Empress Dowager also missed you, so I sent an old slave to pick you up early in the morning."

Li Jinzhi's complexion was turmeric, before he could respond to An Jiang's words, he leaned over the bed and coughed violently.

An Jiang's smile paused, turned to look at Mei Xue and said:
"I heard that there is a medical woman who is proficient in medical skills beside Shizi, but are you a girl?"

Mei Xue lowered her eyes to salute An Jiang, and said in a low voice:
"Minnv is only slightly proficient in Qi and Huang, and it happened to relieve the son's illness."

An Jiang laughed again, looked at Mei Xue kindly, and said:

"Looking young, but he can talk, and the miscellaneous family likes it."

Mei Xue saluted again, she didn't speak anymore, but walked over, took a handkerchief from the tray on the table and handed it to Li Jinzhi.

Li Jinzhi finally stopped coughing, gasped and smiled at An Jiang:
"Prefect Lao has been waiting for a long time, I will wash up and tidy up now."

An Jiang's eyes fell on the handkerchief in Li Jinzhi's hand. Although Li Jinzhi quickly folded and covered up the faint redness, he still saw it.

An Jiang looked at Mei Xue with a faint smile in his eyes.

Mei Xue saluted him again and said:

"The son is not in good health, the autumn rain is cold, and he suffered from the cold last night, so that he coughed so much that he couldn't fall asleep all night."

Li Jinzhi started to cough violently again, so that his forehead was covered with fine sweat.

Mei Xue looked at him with worried eyes.

An Jiang looked clear, nodded with a smile and said:
"Since the son is seriously ill, there is no need to rush into the palace with the old slave.

The old slave will go back and report first, and wait for His Majesty's order. "

Li Jinzhi seemed taken aback. He coughed so hard that he couldn't speak, but waved his hands again and again to express his refusal.

Mei Xue walked up to An Jiang, gave him a deep bow and said:

"Thank you, Superintendent An, for your compassion. The so-called monarch is benevolent and ministers are virtuous. When the women of the people were in Shu, they heard a lot about His Majesty's benevolence, and now they see the father-in-law's actions, and they are even more convinced."

An Jiang was really happy at this time, he laughed, pointed at Mei Xue and said to Li Jinzhi:
"The old slave is an eunuch, but he can't be praised by a girl like this.

But I have to say, the son is blessed, with such a caring person by his side, the empress dowager can feel at ease. "

Mei Xue sent An Jiang out of the bedroom, Song Zhijie was already waiting outside, when he sent An Jiang out of the yard, he stuffed another thick red seal.

Mei Xue returned to the bedroom, Peng Liang and Gao Yuan had already cleaned up for Li Jinzhi, Mei Xue watched him eat some light meals and then fell asleep, but she herself did not go back to the bamboo garden, but stayed in the wing room to rest after eating some meals .

Sure enough, not long after, Xiao Yan came in a hurry. He should have known about Li Jinzhi's return last night, and hurriedly asked Mei Xue how Li Jinzhi was doing.

Mei Xue sat in the chair and said to him lightly:

"It's okay, but he needs to rest for a few days. If you have nothing important to do, don't bother him."

Xiao Yan nodded. Naturally, he didn't dare to complain about what happened yesterday, but he was angry after all, so he snorted and said:

"I ran into Peng Liang outside just now. As soon as I heard what he said, I knew nothing good would happen."

Mei Xue glanced at him without saying a word, took the tea cup at hand and lowered her head to drink slowly.

Xiao Yan looked at the two bruises under Mei Xue's eyes, felt grateful in his heart, sat beside her and said in a low voice:

"Thank you, Miss Mei, for taking care of my cousin. My grandmother also said that my cousin is not in good health. Please don't rush to visit her. Let's rest for a few days before talking about it."

Mei Xue nodded and still didn't speak, Xiao Yan's face was gloomy, and he sat for a while and said:

"I originally thought that it would be the same to let my grandmother come to see my cousin in the palace, but if my grandmother said to do this, outsiders would say that my cousin was not filial."

Mei Xue gave a soft "hmm" and said:

"People's words are scary, it's better not to let people take advantage of the opportunity."

Xiao Yan nodded, sat silently for a while and left the palace.

As Mei Xue expected, Shen Qingyang also came to Shu Palace soon, Mei Xue walked out of the wing and stopped him in the yard.
