Chapter 040 I want to take a bath
"Why are you so loud? I'm not deaf."
As Eunuch Li walked closer, he suddenly thought of the sleeping queen inside, and immediately lowered his head, "Old slave, you deserve to die!"
"Go and prepare a bucket of cold water for me. I want to take a bath."
Eunuch Li was astonished: "Your Majesty, it's late autumn now and the weather is cold. Even if your Majesty has a strong body, you can't make fun of your health easily."
Xia Houlie felt even more irritated when he heard this: "When did my words need to be questioned?"
After hearing this, Eunuch Li hurriedly bowed his head and apologized, "I don't dare, I will prepare it now, but this medicine..."
"Call a palace maid to feed her!"
Xia Houlie became angry when he thought of Mu Qingwan's unwelcome appearance with his back turned to him just now. He opened the window with his palm and let the cold wind blow in from the window, which relieved a lot of the heat in his body.
The peonies and hibiscus were quickly dug up. The two glanced at the tall figure in front of the window, quickly lowered their heads, took the medicine from Eunuch Li's hand and walked into the inner hall.
Since there was no one watching, the two maids no longer panicked and their hands stopped shaking. Shaoyao helped Mu Qingwan up and let her lean against him. Furu took a spoon and took a sip of medicine and coaxed softly:
"Empress, come on, open your mouth and drink the medicine."
Such a gentle voice was very helpful to Mu Qingwan, and she did not embarrass them and opened her mouth obediently.
The two maids looked at each other and smiled. It seemed that the Queen was quite easy to talk to.
The face of the man who saw this scene not far away could not help but become more gloomy. It seemed that this woman was really the only one who had trouble with him!
However, Mu Qingwan's obedience fell apart after she drank the medicine. She frowned and said "Wow--" before spitting out the medicine. The two girls were so panicked that they quickly found a spittoon to catch it.
After spitting out the first mouthful of medicine, no matter how they coaxed her, she pursed her lips tightly and refused to open them again.
The corners of Xia Houlie's lips curled up, and he seemed to be less agitated.
However, the good mood did not last for a few seconds before it was ruined by Fu Rui's words: "Mother, good medicine tastes bitter. You have a fever. You can't do it without taking medicine."
Jian's eyebrows furrowed, this woman is really no ordinary trouble, she can't restless even after taking medicine!
He walked over and looked at the person on the bed. She just frowned, her lips turned red due to fever, and she seemed to be saying something, but it was unclear.
Hearing Mu Qingwan murmuring, the two palace maids felt happy, "Is the empress going to wake up?"
Shaoyao put her ear close to Mu Qingwan's mouth and heard her murmuring: "Hengzhi..."
"Hengzhi? What is Hengzhi..."
Before Shaoyao could finish her words, her hand was pinched by someone. She turned her head to look at Fuyu without knowing why, but what caught her eyes was the emperor's cold face that seemed to want to eat someone.
"Get out!" Xia Houlie glared at Mu Qingwan on the bed and shouted coldly.
Shaoyao and Fuyu quickly put Mu Qingwan down and lay down, stood up, put down the bowl, and dodged out in three steps.
As he walked, he fearfully touched the head melon seeds on his neck, and then he breathed a sigh of relief when he realized that they were still there.
The emperor's face just now was so terrifying that I shudder just thinking about it.
When Mu Qingwan woke up again, she felt as if she was suffocating. Something seemed to be strangling her tightly around her neck. Her head was dizzy, and her whole body hurt as if it had been torn apart and reassembled.
