My Lady is well

Chapter 99: Illness

The fine snow fluttered, the cold wind blew silently, and the cold winter in the palace was always difficult to escape the entanglement of the Snow God.

Shen Yueyao folded her arms tightly and walked into the Zelu Palace, which was filled with warmth.

When she found that the emperor had not returned yet, she untied the laces of the screen, but was surprised to find that the back of her neck was wet.

This cold wind and fine snow can penetrate into your body if you are not careful.

Shen Yueyao frowned slightly. There were only the clothes that concubines wore when sleeping here.

After thinking for a moment, she decided not to change.

She walked to the palace maid closest to the desk and spoke softly.

"Go ahead, I'll take your place."

The palace maid was a little hesitant. Although she knew Shen Baolin would come, she was still a little worried about letting Baolin come to take her place.

She hesitated for a moment before nodding and walking out.

Shen Yueyao didn't know how long she had been standing there. She just felt her head was extremely heavy. She yawned lightly and looked out the window.

The hour of Hai was approaching, but there was still no sign of the Emperor. Shen Yueyao's long eyelashes trembled and trembled, and finally closed.

"Your Majesty, please slow down."

Only after hearing Luo Zhong's voice did Shen Yueyao reluctantly open her eyes.

As soon as Jing Ruzhang reached the palace gate, he unconsciously slowed down his pace. As soon as he entered the palace, he saw that familiar figure.

In the past, I didn’t feel anything even if I didn’t see her, but recently, whenever I have some free time, her figure would involuntarily appear in my mind, either fear, or horror, or calmness, and that rare stubbornness.

Seeing that she was late in coming, citing her leg injury as an excuse, Luo Zhong asked her to urge her every now and then. Unexpectedly, she had no self-awareness at all.

Seeing him come in, Shen Yueyao forced herself to cheer up and bowed along with the palace maids in the room.

At this moment, her mind was a little fuzzy and she reacted a little slowly.

The eunuch at the door saw him come in, walked up to him, and reached out to untie his cloak.

Jing Ruzhang pointed at her calmly.

"Let her come."

When Shen Yueyao saw that she was called upon, she sighed silently in her heart.

She was not very good at serving others, and a palace maid had already brought his pajamas to her.

Shen Yueyao turned her head and took a look. The emperor's clothes were even more complicated. She went over the steps in her mind.

She raised her hand to untie his black fox fur coat. There were some water droplets on the fur. I think it was because the snowflakes melted when they came into the house. The coat was heavy, Shen Yueyao frowned slightly, took it off and handed it to the palace maid.

Then he untied the jade belt around his waist, and his fingertips brushed across the cold jade, causing her to shiver unconsciously.

It seemed as if she was particularly afraid of the cold today. Her slender hands groped around his thin waist for a while, but still couldn't find the key. She had to continue groping back. She wrapped her arms around his waist, and her hair accidentally brushed against his ear, causing a slight itch.

This posture was indescribably ambiguous. As they were close, Shen Yueyao could even smell the faint scent of agarwood on him.

Jing Ruzhang let her do what she wanted, glancing at her quietly out of the corner of his eye.

Seeing that she finally gave up after groping for a while and pulled her hand back, he frowned slightly and pretended to be displeased.

"What are you touching?"

She choked and looked up at him. The candlelight flickered on his handsome face, and his star-like eyes were staring at her, with a hint of mockery in them.

This woman was naturally stupid in this regard, but he was not angry.

He unbuttoned the secret buckle on the jade belt himself. Shen Yueyao's eyes lingered on his face for a few seconds, then she took the jade belt from his hand and then slowly took off his clothes layer by layer like peeling a lotus seed.

She changed into a set of ink-colored pajamas and took off the jade crown on his head.

Shen Yueyao stood on tiptoe and tried to be as gentle as possible, but she still managed to pull out two strands of his hair.

His frown deepened, she stopped and stepped aside.

"Shen Yueyao, do you know what the crime of damaging a dragon's body is?"

Shen Yueyao looked at the hair in her hand, was silent for a while, raised her head, plucked two long hairs from her hair, and handed them to him.

"I didn't do it on purpose. I am willing to compensate His Majesty."

After saying that, she gave him a faint smile, and Jing Ruzhang's eyes, which were originally filled with anger, instantly disappeared.

However, he was also shocked by her unique train of thought and was speechless for a moment. He couldn't find the right words for a moment. He just glanced at the few strands of hair in her hand that were tangled together by the cold wind.

He gave her an inexplicable smile and took the hair from her hand.

When our fingertips touched, her skin was scalding, her eyes were blurry, and there was a light red at the corners of her eyes.

Jing Ruzhang reached out and touched her forehead, and said loudly.

"Luo Zhong, call the imperial physician."

He grabbed her slender waist, walked around the embroidered screen, and put her on the couch.

Shen Yueyao only felt her eyelids becoming heavy. Now that she lay down on the couch, she could no longer hold on and fell into a deep sleep.

Jing Ruzhang stood beside the couch with his hands behind his back, shaking his head gently.

Luo Zhong, who was standing outside the screen, bent over and whispered, "Your Majesty, the imperial physician is here."

"come in."

After the imperial physician came forward to greet him, he glanced at the woman on the dragon bed. He came forward with the medicine box, covered her wrist with a silk handkerchief, and concentrated on taking her pulse. The imperial physician frowned for a moment, then nodded.

Jing Ruzhan saw that his face looked strange and his heart skipped a beat.

"What? But something's wrong?"

The imperial physician stood up and reported, "Your Majesty, don't worry. Shen Baolin is fine. He just caught a cold and has a slight fever. I will prescribe two doses of medicine. He will be fine after taking it."

"In that case, Luo Zhong, please follow Doctor Lu to get the medicine."

Luo Zhong replied, "Yes, Your Majesty."

The imperial physician also took his leave. When he was about to reach the palace gate, he paused, with a slight hesitation on his face. He lowered his head and thought for a moment, then turned his head to glance at the person on the couch through the embroidered screen, then turned and walked out of the palace gate.

When Shen Yueyao woke up, her throat felt bitter. She wanted to drink some water and was a little hungry.

She looked at the ceiling of the tent for a while to relax, then stood up and sat up.

Through the embroidered screen, I saw a figure sitting in front of the desk, holding a book in his hands.

She got off the couch, her head still feeling dizzy. She stood up and bowed to the desk.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I am not feeling well today. I hope Your Majesty can give me some time to recover before I come to serve you in Zelu Palace."

Jing Ruzhang put down the book in his hand, looked at her carefully without looking away.

"Do you feel better?"

Shen Yueyao bowed and said, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I am much better now."

"Now that you are feeling better, you should do your job properly. Shen Baolin should not cheat if you lose the bet."

"..."

What an exploiter!

Shen Yueyao didn't want to play the victim to gain sympathy, so she stood next to the desk.

Jing Ruzhang called out, "Luo Zhong."

Eunuch Luo came in from outside the palace and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, I am here."

"I'm hungry. Ask the imperial kitchen to prepare some light midnight snacks. And... medicine."

Luo Zhong was puzzled. The emperor never had the habit of eating midnight snacks. Why was he breaking the habit today?

He glanced at Shen Yueyao's slightly pale face and seemed to understand something.

"Yes, slave, go right away."
