After traveling through time, I became the aunt of the loyal dog emperor

"Doctor Hu, how is the emperor?"

Wan Ning waited by the bedside for Doctor Hu to finish diagnosing Ziheng, and immediately stepped forward to ask with concern. Doctor Hu lowered his head and said nothing, then raised a hand towards Wan Ning. Fortunately for him, before the anxious Wan Ning could scold him for being mysterious, Cui Yian, who had been waiting by the side, immediately stepped forward and spread out the acupuncture tools in front of him.

Cui Yian then bowed and explained to Wan Ning respectfully, "It is Master's custom not to speak before the diagnosis is completed. Princess, please wait for a moment."

Wan Ning nodded obediently and immediately retreated to her previous position, watching every move of Doctor Hu while giving acupuncture to Ziheng. While feeling distressed and concerned, she couldn't help but wonder if the needle wouldn't work after he opened his mouth, or if the acupuncture points were wrong, and the effect of the treatment would be greatly reduced. But now was not the time to be nonsensical, and she was also praying in her heart that Ziheng would get better soon.

After about half an incense stick of time, Doctor Hu pulled out all the needles and put them back in their original places. When he was done, he immediately stood up and bowed to Wan Ning, saying, "Princess Le Yan, please forgive me for not being able to answer your question in time."

"I am innocent, why ask for forgiveness? Hurry up and stand up! How is the emperor?"

"Princess, the emperor has been overworked recently, and his emotional excitement has caused him to have a headache and faint. I have just given him acupuncture."

"When will he wake up?" Wan Ning asked.

"It will be a moment. Please be patient, Princess."

Otherwise, Doctor Hu was the head of the Chu State Imperial Hospital, so he was naturally very capable, with superb medical skills and modesty. It was said that it was a moment later, but while the two were still talking, Ziheng, who was lying on the bed, slowly woke up and called her in a daze: "Yanyan... Yanyan..."

When the unconscious emperor woke up, he called his aunt's maiden name affectionately. This was not normal for anyone to hear. Doctor Hu seemed to have heard something extraordinary, and for a moment he was uneasy, like an ant on a hot pot. Wan Ning wanted to go up and hold his hand, but she was worried about the presence of others.

At this time, Wan Tao, who was guarding the door, stepped forward and explained, "The emperor and the princess have a deep aunt-niece relationship. The princess is naturally concerned about the emperor's health. Now that the imperial physician has finished acupuncture, I will take you out."

"Thank you."

After that, Cui Yian carried the medicine box and followed Doctor Hu respectfully, and Wan Tao led the way to send the two out. At this time, only Wan Ning and Ziheng were left in the room. She immediately went forward and sat on the bed, holding Ziheng's hand, carefully looking at his current appearance, and the vulnerable side that she had never thought he would have.

Ziheng subconsciously held Wan Ning's hand, and then slowly woke up. The first thing he saw was her worried and sad look, and he felt guilty and touched. He smiled at Wan Ning, but was scolded by Wan Ning: "You're still smiling!"

He stroked Wan Ning's palm, propped himself up to sit up, and said gently: "I'm sorry, Yanyan, I made you worry, I won't do it again in the future."

"Don't get up, just lie down." Wan Ning stood up and helped him lie down, then covered him with a blanket before sitting down. She deliberately joked, "I just heard from the imperial physician that your condition is mainly due to overwork. Have you not had a good rest recently? Did you secretly stay up all night? Tell me the truth, what did you do?"

Ziheng instantly recalled the scene of taking care of Wan Ning who was poisoned by Chunlu Powder last night. It seemed that she had forgotten everything. Ziheng blushed and stammered, unable to speak. This made Wan Ning feel that he had a secret and was deliberately hiding it from her, so she leaned over Ziheng with one hand on the bed, observed his expression and asked: "Tell the truth, confess and be lenient, resist and be strict."

Although he was in a low position and was being looked down upon, his playful eyes seemed to see through her, making her flee in defeat and avoid looking at him. Ziheng asked back, "Yanyan, do you really not remember?"

After receiving this unexpected answer, Wan Ning was a little flustered, but she pretended to be calm and argued: "What does it have to do with me? Don't talk nonsense, or I'll sue you for defamation!"

Ziheng leaned forward, bringing the two closer together, almost kissing. He asked softly and gently, "Since Yanyan doesn't remember, I'll help you recall it. Okay?"

Wan Ning pushed him in panic, and then retreated back to her original position, looking down at her clothes. Perhaps because she was not prepared, Wan Ning pushed him lightly, and Ziheng's head hit the bed with a "dong" sound, so Wan Ning guiltily went forward to check.

Ziheng took the opportunity to hold her wrist, pulled her into his arms and hugged her tightly, whispering in her ear: "Nothing, Yanyan. I just miss you. Can you let me hug you like this? I feel like I haven't seen you for a long time."

Wan Ning stopped struggling and let him hold her, saying simply, "It hasn't been a long time. Didn't we just meet? As a man, the most important thing is to be independent. Don't be too clingy to me, or I'll dislike you."

Ziheng increased the weight of the hug, responded to her joke with a smile, and asked, "Then I must work hard and not let Yanyan dislike me. I don't know why, but I suddenly miss you so much. It's great to wake up with you by my side."

Just as the two were reminiscing about the past, there was a sudden noise outside the door, and the chattering voice was very annoying.

"Who dares to speak too much here? Where is Fang Xiong?" Ziheng was a little unhappy and looked for Fang Xiong.

Wan Ning stood up and looked back at the door. She was also suspicious and said, "Lord Fang has been guarding here. Maybe he can't control the person who is talking. I have been here for a long time and it's time for me to leave. You should have a good rest. I will come to see you tomorrow."

Looking at the reluctant eyes, Wan Ning added gently: "Okay?"

Ziheng couldn't bear to refuse. Thinking that she was a little tired and it would be wrong to let Yanyan take care of herself, he nodded.

The reason for the noise outside the door was that the nanny beside the Queen Mother had just received an order to "assist" the selection of the concubines, and she couldn't wait to lead all the concubines to care for the emperor. Before coming, the nanny specifically asked: "Do you remember what I said just now?"

"Reply Madam, I'll remember that."

The concubines had been in the palace for many days, but they had not seen the emperor in detail and did not know what he looked like. Now they were suddenly brought to the emperor by the new maid, and they were naturally curious and excited. Although they waited obediently behind the maid, they whispered to each other and exchanged information and guesses. The voices were not loud, but they were loud enough for people around them to hear, and the maid could naturally hear it. But the maid who heard it was not angry, but just pretended not to hear it with satisfaction.

At this time, Wan Ning simply tidied up her emotions and clothes, and the moment she pushed the door open, she just happened to hear the conversation.

"I heard that the Emperor fainted after learning that Princess Hejing was coming back. I wonder what their relationship is?"

"You probably don't know this. I heard that the two were childhood sweethearts and were in love with each other, but the emperor was determined to break them up and sent Princess Hejing to marry."

"I also heard that after Princess Hejing married away, the emperor lost his appetite and became depressed. He almost cut off all contact with the outside world. During those years, no one knew the emperor's whereabouts."

"You are so deeply in love with her. No wonder you are so excited to hear her news now. If you really wait until the day you meet her, how sad you will be?"

At this time, Wan Tao, who had sent Doctor Hu back, saw Wan Ning's strange mood at a glance and immediately scolded her loudly, "Where is this place? How can you be so noisy and noisy? Mammy, is this your rule?"

The nanny beside the Queen Mother was well-informed and immediately stepped forward to salute Wan Ning, explaining: "This old servant has only participated in the selection today, and I didn't know that the rules and regulations for the selection girls were so lax. I hope the princess will forgive me. I don't know which manager taught me before, and I must punish him for dereliction of duty. Don't you think so, Wan Tao?"
