Here the queen saw that Yao Wanyi had temporarily calmed down, and then gave a few more instructions before returning to Ronghua Palace.
At this time, the imperial doctor was still there, and when he saw the queen, he hurriedly came forward to say hello.
"Wu Yuanjian, you are diagnosing the prince's pulse. Is there anything wrong with him?" the queen asked the imperial physician.
"This... the prince's pulse condition is fine, but the left string is slightly stagnant," Judge Wu said with a puzzled expression, "But..."
The queen was impatient with his hesitation, lowered her eyes and said: "You have been walking in the palace for thirty years, how come you can't even speak clearly? Or is it because you are old, your legs and feet are inconvenient, and your mind is not clear anymore?"<
/p>
When Judge Wu heard this, he was so frightened that he immediately knelt down and said hurriedly: "Please forgive me, the Queen. How dare you not serve me wholeheartedly in your humble position? It's just that the prince's pulse does not match his external symptoms, so he is suspicious.
I dare to jump to conclusions. Please forgive me!"
"Look at you, are you so scared?" The queen's expression softened slightly, and her tone became gentler, "No matter what, you just report it truthfully, am I still going to punish you?"
"Yes, yes," Judge Wu nodded repeatedly, "Judging from the pulse, His Royal Highness has some disharmony between the spleen and stomach and poor circulation of qi and blood, but they are all very minor.
But His Highness keeps complaining that he has a headache, and it doesn’t get better even after taking medicine, which is a bit strange..."
"Okay, I understand." The queen interrupted him before he could finish, "I think I have a recipe that can make the prince's symptoms better without taking medicine."
"Oh, it turns out that the empress has a magic trick," Judge Wu's eyes lit up, "That's really the best thing."
The queen stood up and walked to the opposite room, where the prince was currently recovering from illness.
At this time, the person serving the prince was begging the prince to drink medicine, but the prince found the medicine bitter and refused to drink it. He just lay on the bed with his forehead on his hands and said: "What use can these medicines do except make me feel more uncomfortable? My head is also hurting.
It hurts even if you take medicine, and it hurts even if you don’t take medicine. Why suffer that time again?”
"Prince, if you don't take medicine, how can you get better from this disease? Hitting your head is no joke, you have to be very careful." The prince's entourage advised him kindly.
"Take the medicine!"
Those people were so focused that they didn't notice the queen coming in.
It wasn't until the queen spoke that everyone quickly turned around to say hello.
"I said take this medicine out and pour it. If the prince doesn't want to take it, then there's no need to take it." The queen said and came to the prince's bedside.
The prince got up from the bed with a guilty conscience and greeted the queen.
"Lie down! Aren't you a patient now? Don't get up and fuss." The Queen said, "Mr. Wu said that your Qi and blood are not smooth and your spleen and stomach are not harmonious. You should take more rest."
"The queen calmed down her anger. I realized that I was wrong. I drank the medicine immediately." The prince was afraid of the queen. Even if he didn't want to drink the medicine, he had to submit at this time.
"I told you that if you don't want to drink it, don't drink it. Mother will not force you." The queen said, sitting on the edge of the bed, and said to the prince in a pleasant tone.
"Mother...is this...isn't this bad?" the prince said, not even daring to look directly into the queen's eyes.
He thought the queen was sarcastic, but in fact she was mocking himself.
"You are my son. Is there anyone in the world who loves you more than me? My heart aches even more when you are injured." The Queen's voice was soft and full of distress, "Perhaps I pushed you too hard before.
, so that you are always avoiding a cat and mouse.
In the past two days, I have calmed down and thought about it. I was a little too harsh in the past."
"Mother... do you really... really think so?" The prince almost thought he was dreaming.
"Yes, you should have a good rest these days. There is no rush for schoolwork at this time, and the future will be long." The queen said and raised her hand to touch the prince's head.
This brief touch made the prince almost not shed tears, and he choked with sobs and said: "I would like to thank my mother for your consideration. When I am well raised, I will work harder and harder."
"Good child, if you have such a heart, the queen will be relieved. If you can sleep, then have a good sleep!" The queen said and stood up, "Just rest for the next few days, and you can eat whatever you want.
You can eat whatever you want and play whatever you want."
"I...did I hear it wrong? What did the queen mother say just now?" The prince was still stunned for a long time until the queen walked out.
"Your Highness, you heard me right. The Empress said that you don't need to take the medicine if you find it bitter. I have told you to rest for the past few days." The people on the side repeated these words as if they were parrots. p>
The prince was really elated, as comfortable as taking a sip of ice and snow water in the dog days of summer.
From the time he was sensible, the queen taught him every day to be sensible, diligent, courteous and progressive, and she never coddled him to play and enjoy himself.
In fact, the prince's requirements are not high. He just hopes that he can have some time to relax, play and make noise every day, just like other children.
But even such an idea was a luxury in the past.
"Hey, it seems that hitting my head is not a bad thing." The prince thought in his heart, "At least I can have a few days of leisure. Maybe after this incident, my mother will not criticize me as harshly as before."
"Mr. Wu, please come here and ask for a pulse every half day from now on." The queen ordered Wu Yuanjian, "If it's still like today, there's no need to give him medicine."
What can Judge Wu say? Naturally, it all depends on the queen’s wishes.
Besides, he felt that there was nothing wrong with the prince, it was just an excuse for the child to avoid doing anything.
As soon as Judge Wu left, Liang Jing came back.
Naturally, the queen wanted to ask him how the investigation at Tian'en Hall was going.
"We don't have any clues at the moment, but we can initially judge that they are not the people who handled it." Liang Jing said, "Feng Chun is Shang Qiyan's confidant. There is no reason to cause harm, and it is impossible for Chun Lai, the little eunuch who oversees the agency." "I also know that they are not so stupid as to directly cause trouble." The Queen said, "I was so busy before that I didn't have time to explain it to you in detail. Looking at the situation in front of me, Concubine Fu cannot stay."<
/p>
"Does the empress feel that Concubine Fu is in the way?" Liang Jing asked, "This matter is probably not their fault."
"Didn't you see what happened that day? Everyone was unlucky, and they were the only ones who took advantage. Do you think I can still tolerate them?" The Queen said with a cold face, "You think of a way to make this happen.
On top of them, who told them to be smart!"
"But it's Shang Qiyan who is presiding over this matter." Liang Jingwei said, "He won't completely listen to us."
The queen was about to say something more, but suddenly the emperor arrived, so she could only stop her words and stood up to greet the emperor.
After the emperor came in, he first asked about the prince's situation.
"This child has a persistent headache. The imperial doctor has come and said that he needs to rest for a few more days. He has been prescribed medicine and has taken it. He is probably asleep now. When he wakes up later, let him come over to His Majesty.
Say hello." The queen took this opportunity to make the emperor feel sorry for the prince.
After hearing this, the emperor said as expected: "The child was hit quite hard. He is indeed suffering. He must ask the imperial doctor to treat him carefully."
The queen thanked the prince and said a few words to the emperor.
The emperor stayed at Ronghua Palace that night, and the queen had to serve him, so there was no chance to discuss matters with Liang Jing.
