Quick Wear: The Stunning Beauty is Forbidden to Be Pampered

Chapter 613 World 6: The Weak and Helpless Crown Princess (53)

The news that the Queen was ill spread throughout the palace like wings.

Of course, if it is general news, it might be a bit troublesome if it comes out of Fengyi Palace.

This was all thanks to the group of concubines who had left. They spread the news as soon as they saw it.

The others didn't want to hide it either. They hoped that the incident would become as big as possible, so they all added fuel to the fire.

Just as the imperial physician had packed his medicine box, Cui'er urged him to rush to Fengyi Palace.

Soon after, the Yangxin Palace received this news.

……

The Hall of Nourishing Heart.

After hearing the report from the young eunuch, Bai Qing went straight into the hall to report without any hesitation.

"Your Majesty, I have received news that the Empress has had another headache. The imperial physician has been summoned and the cause seems to be related to the concubines in the harem."

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Sheng Jin put down his pen, placed the memorial paper forward, sat upright, and frowned.

He didn't take the Queen's illness seriously at first, because the Queen was in good health and the minor headache should pass soon.

He had seen the Queen at noon, how come the disease didn't get better in the blink of an eye, and it came back again?

Thinking of this, Sheng Jin frowned slightly, his dragon eyes darkened, and his whole body temperament was majestic without even being angry.

He looked at Bai Qing. Although there was no anger in his voice, it made people inexplicably nervous.

"What's going on? Is it related to those concubines?"

“In reply to Your Majesty, I have heard that… it is said that the ladies in the various palaces have learned about the news that the Crown Prince and Crown Princess have moved to the Yangxin Palace, and they have all gone to the Fengyi Palace.

I guess... I want the Queen to persuade you to change your mind. When the Queen heard the news, she had a headache for some reason and has summoned the imperial physician."

Bai Qing didn't dare to say that the Queen was so angry with the Emperor that she became ill, so he had to change his story.

His Chunhua is the chief maid in the Queen's palace, and his heart is also inclined towards the Queen.

Therefore, he naturally had to say a few good words for the Queen Mother and used some embellishing techniques in his language.

Bai Qing lowered his head after he finished speaking.

He thought that even if the emperor had no romantic feelings for the empress, there should be a friendship of mutual support, which was much stronger than the ordinary love between men and women.

The Emperor should go to see the Empress.

The center of the harem is always the Empress. No one can destroy the Emperor's love for the Empress, not even the Crown Princess in the West Warm Pavilion.

Bai Qing's mind was in a tizzy and his expression was even more respectful.

Sure enough, after listening to Bai Qing's words, Sheng Jin thought for a moment and decided to go visit the queen.

He really did this on impulse and did not discuss it with the Queen first. He was the first to act unkindly.

But he believed the queen would understand.

After all, over the years, the Queen has always supported and understood his every decision, and stabilized the rear for him, which made it easier for him to seize the throne.

And this matter was not a big deal in the first place.

He would not force the Crown Princess to marry him, he would just keep her under his nose and protect her well.

Sheng Jin thought that he had already restrained his feelings towards the Crown Princess. As an emperor, he felt so aggrieved and it was just an occasional small indulgence.

I believe that the Queen knows the general situation and will not voice any objection.

This time he went there, he might as well comfort the Queen so that she wouldn't be angry all the time and couldn't recover from her illness.

"Let's go. I haven't visited the Queen for a long time. Let me ask the Imperial Doctor what's going on."

"Yes, I will prepare the sedan chair for the emperor right away."

Bai Qing bowed and retreated in a hurry.

After everyone left, Sheng Jin looked at the empty hall, smelled the pleasant scent of peach blossoms, and sighed in his heart.

Queen, you are too narrow-minded and too hot-tempered.

After the dragon chariot was ready, Sheng Jin went to Fengyi Palace without stopping. He kept his eyes closed on the way, and no one knew what he was thinking about.

……

Fengyi Palace.

It was the Empress's usual imperial physician, Zhang Ershi, who was taking the Empress' pulse.

He knelt beside the queen's couch, felt the woman's pulse, and gradually began to frown.

When Madam Jiang saw Doctor Zhang's expression, she knew that there might be something seriously wrong with the Empress' health, and she was so nervous that she almost scratched her fingers until they bled.

But she did not dare to interrupt Doctor Zhang's diagnosis, for fear that her condition would be delayed.

Finally, Doctor Zhang withdrew his hand.

He knelt on the ground, and was about to tell the Queen about her condition when a voice came from outside the door -

"The Emperor has arrived——"

"Your servant is here to pay respects to His Majesty. May Your Majesty be blessed with long life."

The people in the room also reacted and knelt on the ground to pay their respects to the emperor.

The Queen ignored her own illness and forced herself to ask Nanny Jiang to help her up so that she could pay her respects to the Emperor.

Unfortunately, before Nanny Jiang could make a move, the Emperor strode in at such a speed that he could barely bring with him a gust of wind.

"I heard that the Queen had a headache. Didn't she say she was fine today? Why did she get sick again?"

The man's voice was deep and powerful, his stature was tall, and his natural imperial aura made people feel awe.

When the queen saw the mighty and domineering emperor, a glimmer of joy flashed in her eyes. She didn't know if it was a psychological effect, but she felt a lot lighter.

Especially Sheng Jin's words of concern for her, which moved her inexplicably and even brought tears to her eyes.

"Excuse me, I pay my respects to you——"

"Queen, please excuse me. You are ill in bed. I see that the Queen is not in good health, so I will excuse you. However, I don't think this quack doctor needs to stay alive."

Although there was no anger in his question at this time, his words successfully frightened Doctor Zhang.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. Your Majesty, please forgive me. I have the Empress check my pulse every day. Originally, the Empress' pulse was calm and her depression was relieved. It was a good sign. However..."

Doctor Zhang did not dare to continue talking at this point and began to hesitate, fearing that the Emperor would punish him for his poor medical skills.

Sheng Jin had no intention of practicing Tai Chi with him. He didn't like people who had poor skills but were busy scheming to build connections.

Zhang Ershi treated the queen for a month but failed to cure her. Instead, she became seriously ill. How could this be considered poor medical skills?

"What's the matter? You're so shy when you speak. Do you want to use your tongue anymore?"

"Your Majesty, I am innocent. Judging from the Queen's pulse, this is a sign of anger attacking her heart!

Originally, this illness meant that you couldn't get angry. The Empress hasn't recovered yet, but she's been stimulated again. Even if my grandfather, who has long passed away, came, there's no guarantee that the Empress will be completely well!"

Furious?

Could it be that the news of bringing the Crown Prince and Crown Princess to the Yangxin Palace really made the Queen so angry?

Sheng Jin didn't want to doubt it, but the emperor was suspicious by nature. How could he not remember such an obvious thing?

The Queen...is too hostile to the Crown Princess...

Did you know something?
