Lan Qi was so frightened that she forgot all about Yinzhen. She leaned beside the couch and asked repeatedly: "What's wrong with you? Let the imperial doctor come and take a look. Empress Dowager, if you're not feeling well, you can't hide it."
.”
The Empress Dowager scolded her: "They said not to make a fuss, and the imperial doctor doesn't need to come. As soon as you make a fuss, Xuan Ye will be nervous again. He will go to Shengjing at the end of the month. Let him go back and forth in peace, and don't hold him back all the time."
leg."
"As long as the emperor is not alarmed, we still have to invite the imperial doctor. Empress Dowager, can you let me have peace of mind?" Lan Qi said this, and without waiting for the empress dowager to nod, she turned around and ordered the maid to invite the imperial physician.
Naturally, there were people waiting day and night to take care of the Queen Mother's body. Someone came immediately. The Queen Mother couldn't stand their abuse, so she could only rest and rely on the imperial doctor's diagnosis and treatment.
After a careful inspection, the imperial doctor left the inner hall and reported to Concubine De and Sumala: "The Queen Mother has always been very clear-sighted and hearing-sighted. At most, she catches a cold and coughs when she is cold or hot. After checking, I still have no serious symptoms, but the Queen Mother has no serious symptoms."
The Queen Mother is indeed very old, and she is worried that she may suffer from thirst. I heard that she ate too much honey and lotus root just now. In the future, the Queen Mother and the nanny should pay attention to the diet of the Queen Mother. They must not eat too much sweet and greasy food."
Mammy said hurriedly: "Just now, the fourth elder brother and the eighth elder brother coaxed him. The empress dowager was so happy that he ate four or five pieces of lotus root dipped in osmanthus honey. Please be careful in the future."
The imperial doctor said: "Yes, I will go back and study the medicinal formula overnight and bring it to you tomorrow, so that I can relieve my grandmother's worries."
Lan Qi said: "The Empress Dowager doesn't like the smell of medicinal food, so she still focuses on dietary supplements. It's better to find ingredients with the same source of medicine and food than those with strange smells. The Empress Dowager is old, don't let her eat it anymore
With all these hardships, if you can’t even get a bite of good food, how will you live your life?”
The imperial doctor repeatedly said that it was true, saying that Empress Dowager De was thoughtful, but she did not prescribe any medicine after that, saying that she could just eat what she usually eats, and soon withdrew.
When Lan Qi came back, the old man was resting his mind with his eyes closed. When he heard the noise, he knew they were back. He closed his eyes and smiled disdainfully and asked, "What's the matter? Am I suffering from a serious and fatal disease?"
Lan Qi didn't hide anything and said with a smile: "It's because you are greedy and eat a lot of lotus roots. You can't alarm the emperor now. If he knew that my concubine made these things and made you feel uncomfortable after eating them, the emperor would be upset for four or five days."
I showed it to my concubine."
The Empress Dowager smiled and said: "He dares. If you ignore him for four or five days, he will be anxious."
Seeing that she was in a good mood, Lan Qi said angrily: "The imperial doctor said that you are getting old and should be careful about what you eat in the future. I think, people live their whole lives by eating only those few bites to enjoy the most. Don't let them give it to you."
You can eat whatever you want to make some messy medicinal food, but we only have a few bites to satisfy our cravings, and we mainly make some delicious food on weekdays. Do you think it's okay?"
The Empress Dowager opened her eyes leisurely, looked at Lan Qi with relief, and asked: "If you don't listen to the imperial doctor, you will not take responsibility. Aren't you afraid that Xuan Ye will blame you?"
Lan Qi was stunned for a moment, and then she remembered that if she didn't listen to the imperial doctor and do as she said, if something happened to the Empress Dowager, others would get angry at her, and she might be accused of several crimes.
Unknown.
"What, are you scared?" asked the Queen Mother.
"No way." Lan Qi shook her head slightly and threw away those worries, coaxing the Empress Dowager like a child, "I only hope that you will live happily every day, and you will be miserable every day.
If you take medicine, your life will be worse, and you don’t have any pain. What should you do if you have nothing to do with taking medicine? If you are really sick, you really can’t hide your illness and avoid medical treatment. Now you just want to rest, eat better and be more refined, and you can feel good and your body will be good. As for
If the emperor wants to be nagging, I can just ignore him."
The Empress Dowager was overjoyed, and in the hearty laughter, Xuan Ye's voice came out, asking: "What kind of support has Grandma Huang given you again? Do you dare to ignore me?"
Lan Qi turned around and saw Xuan Ye coming, her face turned red, she left the table and curtsied, Xuan Ye stared at her with a smile, and sat down where she had just been sitting, earnestly asking her grandmother what was wrong. As expected, the news of calling for the imperial doctor arrived. He didn't dare to rush over to Qianqing Palace for fear that his grandmother would be unhappy, so he waited for half an hour before coming. Since he hadn't heard anything important, he wasn't too nervous.
Lan Qi brought a hot handkerchief to wipe Xuan Ye's hands. The emperor wiped his hands clean before touching his grandmother's body, rubbing her arms and saying, "Grandma Huang, don't eat randomly just because Lan Qi loves you. You also You have to think about your grandson." He glared at Lan Qi and scolded her, "You are not allowed to act recklessly. You have to put the body of the emperor's grandmother first. You are not allowed to get those things like sugar lotus root to deceive children. Brothers, come to say hello. You should leave as soon as you talk. You can't disturb the imperial grandmother to rest, and don't get more food. Don't you worry about pampering them? Only when they are half hungry can they have a clear mind. They all have to study, and they will be full of fat. How to make progress?"
Lan Qi moved closer to the Empress Dowager and pursed her lips towards the emperor. The Empress Dowager smiled happily and coaxed her and said: "Xuan Ye doesn't dare to scold me, so I can only take it out on you. Come on, yesterday you If you like my enamel walking stick, let Sumala bring it to you."
"My concubine, thank you, the Empress Dowager." Lan Qi smiled like a flower and raised her face proudly towards Xuan Ye, but Xuan Ye said, "I have been sitting for a while, where is the tea?"
She then walked away in a hurry. Now the emperor was spoiled and would not drink tea made by others wherever she was. When she left, Xuan Ye asked about his grandmother's health again and said seriously that he was not joking. Said, nothing is more important than the royal grandmother.
"The most important thing in the world is that you still have a wife and children." The Empress Dowager was also serious and said to Xuan Ye, "Sooner or later, I will have that day. Instead of worrying about it, why shouldn't we be happy when we can see each other again? , look at Lan Qi, she smiles in front of me every day, and I feel at ease when I see you all well."
Xuan Ye felt a little proud, but still smiled and said: "She is also confused sometimes, and she only knows how to make you happy."
"Isn't it the only reason people live to be happy?" The Queen Mother didn't care. She looked at her grandson and thought of her great-grandchildren, and said sincerely, "Fuquan Changning and you are harmonious and harmonious. This is the most gratifying thing for me. Of course It is also because you are not very different in age. When you were a child, they were also children and could do countless things. But now that you are here, it is completely different. There are more worries. You may have more children in the future. You need to prepare and calculate some things in your mind. The children are very different in age, different from my mother, have different upbringing, and have different temperaments. They are all different. A dozen children cannot cherish harmony as much as you brothers. There will always be closeness and distance. Ten or twenty years from now, even if you see something and hear something, don’t be sad. Common people have to fight for a few rooms and acres of land at home, not to mention there are so many temptations in the royal family."
"My grandson understands." Xuan Ye also looked solemn. Not to mention the various persecutions that happened more than ten or twenty years later, whether it was the prince or Yinzuo who died in vain, they were all talking about this, but now it is behind them. It is unknown if the child himself will have different intentions in the future due to the influence of his own influence. As the number of children increases, his joy of becoming a father becomes less and less. This is one of the reasons. He is an emperor, and his thoughts are always higher than those of ordinary people. More, more cruel.
"But this is something in the future. Let's just think more about it. You have children and grandchildren, and you should educate them well now. Every one of them will be good. It's not too late to think about those things until you are right in front of you."
After the Empress Dowager said serious words, she reassured Xuan Ye not to worry too much. At this moment, Lan Qi came with tea and smiled at Xuan Ye: "Your Majesty, please don't talk too much to the Empress Dowager. It takes a lot of energy to talk and you can't sleep peacefully at night."
Already."
Xuan Ye was unconvinced and said: "Do I still want you to teach me?"
While talking, Aunt Sumala turned over the enamel handbag that the Empress Dowager mentioned, took it away in the box and gave it to Lan Qi. Lan Qi gave Xuan Ye a proud look to show off, prompting the emperor to say to her:
"Have you deceived most of the things in the Imperial Grandmother's possession into Yonghe Palace?"
Lan Qi muttered: "The Empress Dowager is willing to reward me, so why is the Emperor so stingy? It's too ugly to lie. I still want to cheat. Is the Empress Dowager someone who can be deceived?"
The Empress Dowager said angrily: "You are not allowed to speak to the emperor like that, you have no sense of propriety." But even so, she still smiled happily: "She said that she has two daughters now, and the dowry should not be too large when she gets married in the future.
I'm so shabby, I keep these good things and use them as dowries for my children."
Xuan Ye shook his head, blaming his grandmother for indulging her, but this was all a joke. The three of them chatted and laughed for a while. When they learned that the emperor had not had dinner, Aunt Sumala invited Xuan Ye to have some simple meals.
Bian Lanqi accompanied the Empress Dowager. After all, the old man was not feeling well just now. He was happy and in good spirits. After a while of quiet, he still felt tired. Before Xuan Ye could finish his dinner, he had already fallen asleep.
When Lan Qi came out to see Xuan Ye again, the emperor told her: "Don't go back tonight. I will be staying in Cining Palace these days. I am even more worried about you leaving the imperial grandmother."
The two of them were talking seriously now, without any intention of joking. Lan Qi sent him to the door, and Xuan Ye said again and again: "I know it's not easy for you to coax the imperial grandmother to be happy. I just told my grandma that it is true."
This is the truth. No matter how many days the imperial grandmother has left, it is best to let her live happily. You have to control everything. What is important is that the imperial grandmother is comfortable and happy. I am always there for other things, and no one can hinder you.
.”
The emperor gave him the greatest trust, and there was nothing Lan Qi could not let go of, but she followed the Empress Dowager every day and could see everything more clearly than others. She solemnly told Xuan Ye: "The Empress Dowager must always hold on."
In order to fight for your dignity, Your Majesty, especially during festivals, I always say that I can’t be underestimated by the people in the clan. Every time I try my best to deal with it, I can’t sleep well at night. I feel really sad when I see it. Your Majesty, I’m concubine.
I dare not say anything disrespectful, but the Empress Dowager is really aging, and it is no longer just a matter of adding a few gray hairs in the past. When you have time, you should spend more time with the Imperial Grandmother."
