They have been classmates for five years and have developed a bond of practicing martial arts together. The friendship between Xie Mingxi and Yin Xiaoxiao cannot be said to be the best, but it is deep enough.
After knowing each other for many years, Xie Mingxi is familiar with the bright and straightforward Yin Xiaoxiao. No matter when and where, Yin Xiaoxiao always has that endearing and carefree look.
This was the first time Xie Mingxi saw her cry.
Big tears fell from the corners of Yin Xiaoxiao's eyes, and soon her face was covered with tears.
People who rarely shed tears occasionally cry, which makes people feel uncomfortable.
Why is Yin Xiaoxiao crying? You can guess it without thinking deeply. Li Xiang would not dare to act recklessly if he was in the palace. Otherwise, he would burst into tears the moment he heard that the third prince was appointed crown prince.
Xie Mingxi sighed secretly, took out the clean silk handkerchief she carried with her, and handed it to Yin Xiaoxiao: "Wipe your tears."
Yin Xiaoxiao let out a choked sigh, took the silk handkerchief, wiped her tears, and wiped her nose.
Xie Mingxi: "..."
I gave you the silk pa, you don’t have to pay it back, thank you!
Yin Xiaoxiao has a cheerful and neat temperament. She feels better after crying. She said with slightly red eyes: "Actually, I had expected this day. I also privately advised His Highness to give it a chance, but no matter what I said,
No matter what, he won’t listen to me.”
"Today, he should have given up completely."
If the fifth prince could be like Sheng Hong and recognize the situation earlier and give in earlier, how could he be in such an embarrassing situation today?
I don’t know how many little shoes are waiting for the fifth prince to wear in the future.
Xie Mingxi did not pretend not to understand, and said calmly: "People are different in nature. What Sheng Hong can do, the fifth prince may not be able to do, let alone be willing to do it."
"Besides, it's too early to say anything now. You don't have to worry too much. As the third prince becomes the crown prince, he will be busy with many things in the future. How can he find the time to trouble his brothers all day long?"
I hope so.
Yin Xiaoxiao sighed with a wry smile, and then said: "These days, Sanhuang's sister-in-law and I have become a lot estranged. Every time you go to her house, I want to go with you. But I don't have the shame to go. I don't know if she will be willing in the future.
Ignore me."
Xie Mingxi smiled and reassured: "You don't have to worry about this. You and Sanhuang's sister-in-law grew up together and are close friends. How can she care about trivial matters?"
"Tomorrow we will go to Sanhuang's sister-in-law's house to visit Sister Fu."
With her here, Yin Xiaoxiao can shamelessly pretend that nothing happened.
Yin Xiaoxiao glanced at Xie Mingxi gratefully: "Thank you very much." Before Xie Mingxi could say anything, she added: "It's so common among us to thank you. That's all, I won't thank you anymore."
Xie Mingxi smiled.
This is the strong and lovely Yin Xiaoxiao she is familiar with!
…
Sheng Hong returned home in the evening.
Sheng Hong said in a low voice: "After the court dismissed today, my father called the three emperor brothers in to talk. We waited for half an hour before we were called into the palace. Without saying a few words, we heard that the emperor's grandmother
After the news that he was unconscious, we went to Cining Palace with our father."
"How is Grandma Huang's health?" Xie Mingxi asked.
Sheng Hong sighed: "Several doctors worked hard for a long time, giving medicine and acupuncture, but they were able to revive the emperor's grandmother. However, the emperor's grandmother was numb and weak all over, and could not move at all. Her speech was also unclear, and she could not speak clearly when she opened her mouth.
My mouth is watering."
His face was full of sadness, and his tone was also sad.
If you don't look at the smile in Sheng Hong's eyes, he looks like a good grandson of the emperor who is worried about his grandmother's illness.
A smile flashed in Xie Mingxi's eyes, and she sighed together: "I have also heard of this kind of disease. Elderly people are most taboo about being too excited. The imperial grandmother was also overly happy about the fact that the third emperor brother was established as the crown prince.
, I didn’t expect to get such a disease.”
"It seems that the imperial grandmother will have to rest and recuperate from now on."
The couple looked at each other and smiled knowingly.
Empress Dowager Li gradually lost power in the palace, just because she didn't like the couple, she just said a few difficult words and lowered her face when greeting them.
However, Xie Mingxi has never been one to tolerate humiliation. Whenever she gets the chance, she will always retaliate.
I never thought that this "return" would make Queen Mother Li so angry.
What a joy!
"Originally, the Third Imperial Brother planned to hold a banquet tonight, but now that the Imperial Grandmother is ill, we can only skip the banquet."
Sheng Hong added: "From tomorrow onwards, several royal brothers and I will take turns to go to Cining Palace to take care of the disease. You and the third emperor's sister-in-law are both pregnant, so my mother will exempt you from having to take care of the disease, and the father has agreed.
.”
Xie Mingxi nodded.
…
Empress Dowager Li's illness is approaching with great force.
He lay on the bed, as if he was paralyzed, unable to move. He would lose control several times a day, and no matter how frequently he changed the bedding, there would still be some peculiar smell. He had to burn more sandalwood to cover up the smell.
He was unable to speak or chew, so he could only drink some rice cereal to satisfy his hunger.
After a few days, Empress Dowager Li lost a lot of weight, her complexion became sallow, her eye sockets were sunken deeply, and she looked like her days were numbered.
No matter how estranged I am, she is still my own mother.
Seeing Empress Dowager Li's condition, Emperor Jianwen was very anxious and ordered the imperial doctors to cure Empress Dowager Li's illness in the shortest possible time.
The imperial doctors took orders tremblingly, complaining in their hearts.
No matter how good your medical skills are, you can't cure a dying person!
These days, living over the age of fifty is considered a long life. Empress Dowager Li is in her sixties and her body is old. In the past two years, she has been suffering from intermittent illnesses, major and minor.
This time, Empress Dowager Li was so excited that she fainted. All the imperial doctors tried their best to revive Empress Dowager Li.
It was a blessing to be able to get this life back. Emperor Jianwen asked them to cure Empress Dowager Li in the shortest possible time... How is this possible!
The imperial doctors turned around and gathered together, all with sad faces.
"What do you think of the Queen Mother's illness?"
"I think it should be supplemented with decoction and acupuncture, followed by medicinal baths. However, I really dare not say whether it will be effective and make the Queen Mother recover as before."
"The Emperor ordered me to cure my mother's illness in the shortest possible time. We don't have much time and we can't afford to delay!"
"The empress is old and frail, so the prescription should focus on conditioning. Remember to be impatient for success. Don't prescribe strong medicine!"
"Aren't you talking nonsense? If you don't prescribe strong medicine, how long and how long will it take to treat her? Your Majesty's illness has not improved for a long time, and the emperor is angry. Who can afford it?"
"If a strong medicine is prescribed and the empress' foundation or longevity is injured, and the emperor punishes her, who should be blamed?"
A group of imperial doctors almost rolled up their sleeves and started arguing.
After all, I was afraid that Emperor Jianwen would punish him!
Imperial Doctor Zhao, who had been silent until now, finally spoke: "The Emperor has decreed that if your mother's illness does not improve, you will hold me accountable. In my opinion, it is better to get through this test first."
