The Biography of Concubine Wen Xi in Qing Palace

Chapter 565
It was a love affair at night, since the meal in the afternoon, the emperor has been staying in Changchun Palace, abandoning political affairs and staying by Wanyu's side for a whole day.

When he was drowsy, he was suddenly awakened by a knock on the door like a gust of wind and rain outside the hall.

The emperor was angry and annoyed and shouted to die, but Wannai recognized that it was the voice of Li Jian beside the emperor. He had learned proper manners from Liang Jiugong. tell.

So he stroked the emperor's chest to calm him down, got up and lit the palace lantern and asked through the door, "What's the matter?"

Li Jian's reply outside the door seemed to be trembling: "The Empress Dowager suddenly coughed up blood and passed out!"

Before he finished his words, he was about to send the emperor's astonishment away.

Wan Yu hurriedly waited for her to undress, and then ordered Li Jian to prepare the sedan chair quickly.

The emperor's hands trembled slightly and he put on his pajamas, he frowned and said to himself: "It's okay to greet you in the morning, how could this be?"

Wan Yu persuaded: "Your Majesty, don't worry, go and listen to what the imperial physician has to say before making any plans."

The people who carried the sedan chair rushed into the Palace of Compassion and Tranquility with the wind and snow all the way, but at this time, the young masters of the various palaces who were far away from the Palace of Compassion and Peace had already gathered here, and each of them was pacing back and forth in the main hall anxiously .

Seeing the emperor coming, led by Yuwen, they greeted the emperor, the emperor ignored them, just raised his hands and said a word, and rushed into the bed as if flying.

Wan Yu followed behind slowly, and when she came to Lin Lan who was pregnant, she glanced at her, and whispered in her ear: "Why are you here to join in the fun with your body?"

Linlan took her hand and walked with her to a secluded corner and whispered: "Sister thinks I'd like to come? It's just that it's not good to see the Empress Dowager doing this. It's not like we don't know how the Emperor treats the Empress Dowager with filial piety." Don't say that I have a body, even if I give birth today, I have to come as soon as I get off the bed. Otherwise, I don't know what people will talk about behind my back in the future."

"What did the doctor say after seeing it?"

Lin Lan shook her head helplessly: "75 years old, and suffering from head wind for [-] years, how can there be a healthy body? It can only be delayed for a day."

Wanna entered the inner bedroom, the Empress Dowager was lying flat on the couch, her complexion was pale and she was unable to breathe, Su Mala, who was taking care of her, couldn't help but wipe her body with hot water.The Empress Dowager Renxian was sitting on the edge of the couch, clasping her hands together and chanting Buddhist scriptures silently with lowered eyebrows.

The emperor half knelt in front of the couch and held the Empress Dowager's hand tightly, while Rong Yue stood beside him and comforted him: "The emperor's dragon body is the most important thing, and worrying too much about yourself is of no benefit."

The emperor's eyes were flushed, and his eyes never left the empress dowager for a moment: "Fu Zhuo has served the empress dowager for dozens of years without incident, why did you become like this when you took over?"

Hesheli Baotai, who was newly established as the court judge, heard the reprimand in the words, and knelt down in a hurry to argue: "The emperor forgives the crime, but the humble minister is incompetent. The empress dowager is old, and the head wind disease cannot be cured. I have tortured so many people, it is really hard for people to suffer. Now the qi and blood are reversed, and the pulse is like a thread, I think it is."

"What is it?" The Empress Dowager Renxian stopped turning the eight-treasure Buddha string in her hands, and suddenly stared at Baotai: "Listen to Aijia, if there is something wrong with the Empress Dowager, you will go to the funeral together with her." That's it! Incompetence is incompetence, where did these flattering words come from?"

She looked like Shura, so frightened that Baotai didn't dare to argue any more, and just kowtowed to beg forgiveness.

Empress Dowager Renxian glared at him with a cold look, then quickly fixed her eyes on Rong Yue: "The imperial concubine took care of the empress dowager in the past, why can't she do anything now?"

Rong Yue bowed slightly, and sighed softly: "The concubine is incompetent. Now the Empress Dowager's illness is not a headache symptom, and the concubine is not a doctor, and there is no way to deal with side diseases. I just hope that if I can, I will ask the concubine I switched identities with the Empress Dowager, and I lay on that couch to suffer for the Empress Dowager."

The more she spoke, the more hurtful she felt, Luo Yin's words even dripped down on the back of her hand with teardrops.

Perhaps because of concern, the emperor was in disarray, especially at this moment, the emperor couldn't listen to gossip, he let out a long sigh and shook his head helplessly: "Don't bother, I will make the emperor's grandmother restless! People from the Tai Hospital will go down to prepare medicines and wait on them, except Lagu Su Ma, The rest of you should go back to the palace."

After everyone left, Wan Yuxing was at the end.She deliberately slowed down her pace, looked back at the emperor's sad back, and didn't know how to feel.

Finally, due to years of love, she stepped forward and patted the emperor's shoulder lightly. She wanted to say something, but the words were stuck in her throat.

Just like this, I quietly stayed with the emperor for half an hour, and when the imperial physician brought the medicine back in, he took it to feed the empress dowager, but the emperor gave him a hand, saying: "Wan'er, I want to have a quiet time with the emperor's grandmother." Hold on for a while."

Wan Lai nodded, closed the door and retreated.

At this time, there was already a pot of porridge boiling outside the palace, and the concubines gathered in the courtyard to bully each other against the wind and snow, and there was no intention of dispersing.

Seeing Wan Lai coming out as if she had a backbone, Wu Yang leaned forward and surrounded her.

"Your Majesty, just now, the Empress Dowager Renxian called the Ministry of Internal Affairs to secretly arrange the funeral of the Empress Dowager, and even the imperial concubine went to find a mage to enter the palace, saying that she was praying for blessings and chanting scriptures to protect the health of the Empress Dowager, but the Empress Dowager herself .”

"That's right. If the Empress Dowager is heading west, it's a period of worrying about state affairs. The importance of the Emperor and the Empress Dowager's grandchildren will be hit hard."

The two who spoke were those who had served in the palace not long ago, and Wanyu felt that she didn't want to talk to them, so she just said in a serious voice: "The empress dowager Wan'an. You can do what other people say and do." You need to listen, and forget it after hearing it. If I want to know these stupid words from your mouths in the future, don’t blame me for not thinking about sisterhood, and I will be severely punished.”

This kind of words can be regarded as a slap in the face of those who want to pretend to care about the empress dowager and get sideways in front of the emperor. When everyone is embarrassed, Zhuo Lan, who is standing behind the crowd, sees that no one dares to talk anymore. She stepped forward to give Wanyu a little salute, and said softly: "The imperial concubine has worked hard to serve the emperor, and she must be tired after tossing around like this at night. After a tiring day, why don't you go back to the palace to rest earlier? The concubine is looking after her. The emperor probably doesn't like people disturbing the empress dowager's cultivation at this moment, so the concubine will wait in the courtyard. If the emperor has any orders, or the empress dowager, then the concubine will send someone to go to the empress dowager immediately If there is a word in the palace, what do you think the empress thinks?"

Wanyu raised her eyebrows and carefully looked at Zhuo Lan whose cheeks were flushed by the wind and snow, she couldn't help but sigh secretly, she really is a woman who can be treated differently by the emperor, no matter what the situation is, she will be like this to everyone Not revealing, it is really a delicate mind.

She smiled and accepted Zhuo Lan's words, left the Palace of Compassion and Ning, and got into the sedan chair with the support of Shuang Ruo and Yun Chan.

After getting up in the sedan chair and walking for half a mile, seeing that it was far away from the Palace of Compassion and Ning, Shuang Ruo opened a corner of the sedan chair curtain and asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, how is the Empress Dowager?"

Wan Yu was silent for a while, and said to him from left to right: "It's time to end Tong's life, and go down to make amends for those many people who died in vain."
