The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

The corners of the queen's mouth curved slightly, as if she was smiling.

"Empress, the high-profile appearance of Princess Ye is a sudden threat to us."

"If an enemy comes, we will fight him with our troops; if a flood comes, we will block it with earth. If Yun Mujiu stops hiding his incompetence, he will soon attract the attention of those people, which will also be of certain benefit to us."

Nanny Pei nodded in agreement and changed the subject: "Empress, our people have found traces of Wanyan Gu, the second prince of Nantai, in the capital."

"Oh?" The Queen was a little surprised. "The Nantai envoys should not have arrived in Beijing yet, right?"

"The Nantai envoys have not arrived yet. Wanyan Gu and his follower Tudan arrived ahead of time. What should we do then?"

The queen waved her hand casually and said disdainfully: "Don't pay attention to him for now. He is just a prince. He won't cause any trouble if left alone. If it is the Crown Prince of Nantai, we should pay more attention to him."

The Crown Prince of Nantai was the biological son of Queen Zhang Meng of Nantai, and was favored and valued by the Emperor of Nantai. The Second Prince, Wanyan Gu, was just the son of a favorite concubine of the Emperor of Nantai.

Nanny Pei took note of the Queen's words, bowed, and left.

At this time, the Emperor and Concubine Yu were staying in the Lanyue Palace. They were holding each other's hands, with unconcealable concern and tenderness on their faces.

Their beloved son Ye Chuhe was half leaning against the head of the bed, his face pale and his lips bloodless.

Ye Chuhe politely declined Concubine Yu's offer to feed him the medicine personally.

He picked up the medicine bowl and drank a large bowl of medicine in one breath.

The medicine smelled bad and tasted unpleasant. Ye Chuhe frowned as he swallowed it, and his tall nose wrinkled slightly, but he tried his best to keep a calm expression on his face.

He picked up the handkerchief, wiped the corner of his lips, and put it back on the tray held by the servant.

Even though he was not feeling well, his every move was still graceful and elegant, showing his gentlemanly demeanor.

He looked at the Queen and the Emperor, his elegant and handsome face showing an apologetic expression, "I'm sorry, Father, Mother, I made you worry again."

Concubine Yu's beautiful eyes were full of pity, and her two slender willow-leaf eyebrows were slightly curved.

"Chu He, what are you talking about?"

She said in a gentle tone: "The greatest wish of your mother and your father is that you are safe and healthy."

"It's all your mother's fault for giving birth to you but not being able to give you a healthy body." Concubine Yu sighed.

Concubine Yu was in good health when she was pregnant, but Ye Chuhe had been weak and sickly since childhood.

After experiencing a serious illness, Ye Chuhe should have reached the age when normal children learn to walk, but he couldn't even stand up, let alone learn to walk.

The Emperor and Concubine Yu invited all the imperial physicians and countless famous doctors in the world, but no one could diagnose the cause of Ye Chuhe's inability to walk.

Some doctors could only guess that the serious illness had damaged Ye Chuhe's body, causing him to lose sensation in his legs, suffer from frequent attacks, and develop various adverse symptoms, even endangering his life.

As for the specific cause of the disease and how to cure Ye Chuhe's legs, no one could answer. Even the chief doctor Shi of the Imperial Hospital could only try his best to maintain Ye Chuhe's legs and suppress the onset of the disease.

The more Concubine Yu thought about Ye Chuhe's pain, the more guilty she felt.

When the emperor saw Concubine Yu's beautiful eyes filled with tears, his heart softened. He increased the strength of his hands and held Concubine Yu's hand tightly.

"Don't worry too much, Chu He will be fine. With Doctor Shi here, Chu He will slowly recover."

Doctor Shi nodded hurriedly and continued, "Your Majesty, I will do my best to take good care of King He."

Ye Chuhe would occasionally fall ill and become even weaker. The imperial physician tried his best to restore his physical condition, but he could only recover to a normal state and could not reach the health level of a normal person.

Concubine Yu's makeup was bright and vivid, with a few tears falling from the corners of her eyes. She looked like a beautiful woman in tears.

The emperor held Concubine Yu's hand with one hand and held her in his arms with the other hand.

His expression no longer carried the majesty of an emperor, but instead the concern of a husband and a father.

Ye Chuhe looked at his parents who loved him, his eyes were complicated, with guilt, regret, tenderness, and a hint of sadness.

Concubine Yu took the emperor two steps forward and stopped beside Ye Chuhe's bed.

She patted the back of the emperor's hand gently, then let go of his hand.

Imperial Concubine Yu sat beside Ye Chuhe's bed and smiled gently: "Mother, if you can find some capable doctors in the near future, I don't believe that my son's illness is incurable. Chuhe, mother believes in you, you will definitely be able to defeat the disease."

Ye Chuhe slightly opened his upper and lower lips and wanted to speak.

Concubine Yu raised her right index finger and placed it on her lips, "Shh..."

"He'er, don't talk for now and have a good rest."

Ye Chuhe raised his head and stared at Concubine Yu and the Emperor for a few seconds, then forced a smile.

The emperor stepped forward and patted Ye Chuhe's shoulder, "Father will come to see you again when he has time."

Ye Chuhe nodded obediently, and with the help of his servants, he lay down, closed his eyes and rested.

The Emperor and Concubine Yu left Ye Chuhe's bed and walked towards the door.

Suddenly, the eunuch Li beside the emperor ran over in a hurry with hurried steps.

"Your Highness, Your Highness. Your Highness, Your Highness."

The emperor's eyes were filled with solemnity. What urgent matter had made Eunuch Li so impatient to tell him?

You have to know that he is still in his son King He's palace, not in the bedroom where he usually works.

"Stand up. What happened?"

"Thank you, Your Majesty," Eunuch Li stood up after paying his respects, "I just received an important message, so I hurried to see you."

Eunuch Li bent his waist slightly and glanced quickly at Concubine Yu.

He was not sure whether he could let Concubine Yu know the news immediately. What if the emperor did not want Concubine Yu to know so quickly?

Concubine Yu was a smart person and reacted immediately. She smiled at the emperor and said, "Then I will take my leave first."

The harem was not allowed to interfere in government affairs. Although she was favored by the emperor, she was not allowed to do whatever she wanted.

The emperor thought for a moment and realized that Eunuch Li's visit to Lanyue Palace should be related to Concubine Yu and Ye Chuhe. There should be no big news in the near future, so there was no need to avoid Concubine Yu.

The emperor took Concubine Yu's hand and said, "No need, just listen here."

Concubine Yu smiled faintly and had to stay.

Eunuch Li straightened up, "Your Majesty, we have learned some clues. It is very likely that the Wu Shen Doctor and his daughter from Beihan Country are staying in the Ye Palace at this time."

The Emperor and Concubine Yu's pupils suddenly shrank.

Doctor Shi, who was bowing his head, was shocked when he heard the word "Beihan". Fortunately, he recovered quickly. His presence was very low, and no one noticed his movements.

The emperor couldn't wait to ask, "Is the news true?"

Eunuch Li shrank his head and answered cautiously, "It's 80% true. The secret guards and the imperial guards have some clues. Although they can't be completely confirmed, it's a serious matter and needs to be informed to the emperor in advance."

The emperor has always loved King He and has spent countless efforts to search for famous doctors in the world. Now that there is some news about Beihan's famous doctor, he must seize it in time.

Doctor Wu is a highly skilled doctor and has rarely traveled in recent years. Now that we have news of Doctor Wu's whereabouts, how can we not be excited?
