The first time I saw Yuan Qingling injecting Lao Liu, I was frightened because I didn't know what kind of poison it was.
Looking at it now, I know it is a life-saving medicine.
Of course, she was not dazzled by her kindness and was wary of both Yuan Qingling and King Chu.
"Princess Ji has not been here for the past few days." Concubine Lu suddenly said.
Yuan Qingling said without raising her head: "I don't miss her at all."
"I heard that she is ill." Concubine Lu said softly.
"Sick?" Yuan Qingling asked, "What disease?"
Concubine Lu shook her head, "I don't know about that. I only know that yesterday I was supposed to go to greet the queen, but she didn't go. Concubine Qin said she was sick and couldn't enter the palace."
Yesterday was the fifteenth day, and according to the rules, the princesses had to go to pay their respects to the queen.
Because Yuan Qingling wanted to treat King Huai, the emperor exempted him from treatment.
Because when Princess Ji was mentioned, everyone was in a bad mood, especially Concubine Lu, who even cursed a few times.
King Huai frowned and said, "Concubine, forget it, don't be troublesome, walls have ears."
He was used to being forbearing and felt that it was better to do less than to do more.
"Forget it?" Concubine Lu snorted, looked at Prince Huai and said, "You haven't told the truth to your mother and concubine yet. What did she say in front of you?"
"It's over, don't mention it again. My son is no longer confused now." King Huai watched the medicine slowly being injected into his body and sighed softly. People who have been sick for a long time will indeed become confused.
Fortunately, the fifth sister-in-law did not give up because of his statelessness.
Yuan Qingling pulled out the needle, looked at King Huai and said, "Actually, I also want to know, what exactly did she say?"
She wanted to understand Princess Ji's way of speaking. It was difficult to see this woman clearly.
Sometimes you think she is shallow, sometimes you think she is shameless, sometimes you think she is very kind, and sometimes you think she is shameless.
When King Huai heard what Yuan Qingling said, he could only say: "It's just what Quan'er said. He said that my father had given up on my illness. The palace was preparing for my funeral, and my father secretly asked his eldest brother to come."
He asked me what my last wish was, and even said that my father sent Fifth Sister-in-law here to temporarily appease me, but Fifth Sister-in-law actually didn’t understand anything and just gave me a false hope to let me spend my last few days happily."
"Then the prince believed it." Yuan Qingling took out the thermometer and put it under his arm. He took out a notebook and waited to record the body temperature three times every morning, noon and evening.
"I was indeed about to die at that time." King Huai shrugged, "People who have been ill for a long time have been waiting for that day to come, and they feel uneasy if it is delayed."
I don’t think I care much now, but at that time I was tortured every day and every moment.
Concubine Lu cursed bitterly: "I really hope she gets sick and dies. I will curse her every day."
"Thirty-six degrees seven," Yuan Qingling took the thermometer and recorded it, "It's a good sign, there is no more low-grade fever."
"It's a good sign, isn't it?" Concubine Lu didn't care about scolding, and leaned over to see the thermometer, but how to see that thing? I didn't see what she said about thirty-six degrees seven.
"Yes, the progress is good." Yuan Qingling nodded.
Concubine Lu was very comforted. She heard Yuan Qingling say these words every day recently, and she felt indescribably comfortable.
Yuan Qingling asked Quan'er to take the medicine, and she watched closely the whole time. King Huai himself couldn't help but laugh, "Don't worry, fifth sister-in-law, I won't vomit it out again."
Yuan Qing Ling smiled and said, "Well, I won't stare at you anymore."
"I'm staring, I'm staring." Concubine Lu said quickly.
