Xianyue took a breath and said warmly: "I thought it was nothing serious, just drink more water, but I didn't know that I kept coughing."
"You are really not careful at all." Hongli scolded him lightly, and then said: "Have you eaten the lychees I sent you today?"
Just as Xianyue was about to speak, Aluo said first, "When I return to the emperor, the master doesn't like to eat lychees, so he hasn't touched them yet."
"Talk!" When Xianyue scolded, Hongli said in surprise: "Don't you like it? Why didn't I hear you mention it?"
Xianyue looked slightly gloomy and said: "I said it a long time ago, and after such a long time, the emperor must have forgotten it."
Hongli looked at her lowered eyebrows and said, "What's wrong? Are you angry with me?"
Xianyue took a deep breath, shook her head and said, "No, the emperor specially ordered someone to send lychees. I am already very happy."
Hongli held her hand tightly and said warmly: "It's my fault. I promise you that I will remember your dislike of eating lychees and never forget them again, okay?"
Xianyue coughed a few times and said with a smile: "I am so honored that the emperor can remember me specially, but... I would like to ask for more."
"What are you asking for?" Under Hongli's curious eyes, she said with a half-smile: "Besides lychees, I don't like eggplants. I wonder if you can please remember this, too?"
Hongli heard what was going on and laughed loudly: "Okay, I promise you, I will definitely remember it. As for those lychees..."
Xianyue said quickly: "I have given some to Concubine Yi, and the rest has been divided among A Luo and the others, but I can't let the emperor take it back."
"I was originally afraid that you would not like it if I kept it in the palace. Since we have already divided it, it is naturally the best." After a pause, Hongli said: "I remember that you like to eat honeydew melons sent from Xinjiang. Press
Counting the days before the tribute, it should be delivered in a few days, and then I will ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs to send a few more to you."
Xianyue smiled sweetly and said, "Is it time for my concubine to express her gratitude to the Lord for His kindness now?"
Hongli smiled and scolded: "You girl, I have good intentions to care for you, but you are playfully smiling with me. It's really too much."
"Concubine..." Xianyue just said two words and started coughing violently again. Hongli quickly ordered someone to pour a cup of tea. After watching her drink it, he said nervously: "Stop talking so much, wait for the doctor."
Let’s talk about it when we get here.”
Seeing that he cared about her so much, Xianyue's heart warmed up, and she waited patiently for the imperial doctor to come. After a while, Qi Kuan arrived with Song Zihua. After checking Xianyue's pulse, Xianyue said, "When your Majesty coughed recently, did you...
Feeling a dull pain in your chest?"
Xianyue nodded and said: "Yes, I have been feeling this way since the day before yesterday. Sometimes I feel like this when I am short of breath."
Hongli asked: "Emperor Song, why does the imperial concubine keep coughing? Is it serious?"
"Back to the Emperor, the Concubine's cough was caused by wind and cold. However, the Concubine did not pay attention to it at the time. As a result, the long-term coughing damaged the lungs. Although it is not serious, it will take some time to recover. In addition, if the Concubine coughs again in the future, she will
Be careful, because after the lung pulse is injured once, it is very easy to be injured again, so don't be careless."
After Song Zihua went down to prescribe a prescription, Hongli said, "Have you heard that? From now on, even if you cough, you must immediately ask an imperial doctor to see you. Don't let a minor illness turn into a serious illness like this time."
Xianyue chuckled and said: "There is no serious illness, it's just a little troublesome. If it is as the emperor said, the imperial doctor of the Song Dynasty will probably have to stay in Yanxi Palace for a long time in the future."
"You're still joking." Hongli scolded him lightly and said seriously: "Promise me that you will take good care of yourself in the future, you know?"
Xianyue felt his concern, nodded and said: "I will meet you. Before, it was because there were too many things in the palace and I couldn't spare any time."
"No matter how busy you are, you have to take care of your health." After that, he tightened Xianyue's hand and said: "I know that during this period you have to organize the draft and take care of all the matters in the palace, especially the queen and the gold medal.
Now that the concubines are pregnant, there are many things to do. How about this, how about I ask Concubine Yi to help you? You have always had a good relationship with her."
Regarding Hongli's proposal, Xianyue would not refuse, and nodded and said: "Well, in the future, I will have Concubine Yi to help me, so I can feel more relaxed."
After the palace servants came in with the medicine, Hongli personally fed Xianyue to drink it, then stood up and said, "It's getting late. Concubine, please rest early."
Xianyue's eyes dimmed as she stood up and knelt down and said, "Yes, I will send you to the Emperor respectfully."
Hongli said in surprise: "Farewell to me? Do you want to drive me away?"
Now it was Xianyue's turn to be surprised, "The emperor stood up and told me to rest early, isn't he going to leave?"
Hong Li said amusingly: "Which of your ears heard that I was leaving? I got up because I found that the window was not closed and wanted to close it to prevent you from blowing the wind and coughing even more."
After Hongli closed the window, Xianyue said tentatively: "Your Majesty...won't you go see the Queen tonight?"
"Is it your fault that I haven't come to see you during this time?" Hongli lightly scratched Xianyue's straight nose and said: "I think the queen is in good spirits during this time. It's okay to miss you for a day occasionally. You are sick now.
Don't think about this, quickly change your clothes and rest, I'm here to accompany you."
"Yes." Xianyue responded meekly. After the palace guests turned off the lights and retired, she rested her head on Hongli's arms and closed her eyes to sleep.
When the sound of even breathing came from around her, Xianyue, who should have been asleep, opened her eyes and stared blankly at the face close at hand. Hongli, who was sleeping, looked a little less imperial than usual.
His majesty is a little more easy-going and approachable.
Her fingers slowly stroked along the outline of Hongli, and finally stopped at his slightly prickly chin. She sketched a faint smile and said: "It seems that the emperor was too lazy to shave when he got up this morning." Pause.
After a moment, she said: "Your Majesty, do you know that I am very envious of the queen and the concubine Jin? They can both have children of their own."
They can give birth to children for the emperor. Even if they lose the child in the future, at least they have tasted what it is like to be a mother and know what it feels like to have a child in their belly; I really want to... really want to give birth to the emperor.
The child, even... is a princess, so that I won’t be alone. Unfortunately, I don’t have that.
The blessing. It has been fourteen years, and I have been with the emperor for fourteen spring and autumn years, but I have never been able to find that blessing. Perhaps I will never be able to find it in my life. The ancient prescription that the Song Dynasty doctor specially found for me finally
It's all in vain." She closed her eyes, and two lines of clear tears flowed down the corners of her eyes, soaking the purple pillowcloth. She choked and continued: "
Yan Shuangfei, Yan Shuangfei... What a nice name, but it ruined my hope of becoming my mother-in-law. I don’t blame the emperor. I know that you regret it, so you won’t let me use Yan Shuangfei again.
, but it’s too late, I will never be able to give birth to another child for the rest of my life, and even Yonglian...I can’t protect her.”
