I am a miracle doctor in Dream of the Red Chamber

Chapter 46: The Warmth and Romance of Qi'an Cave

On the 18th day of the first lunar month, the capital of Dayao - Jingning City, the Dayao Imperial Palace and Rongguo Mansion.

It is said that on the sixteenth day, after Prince Yi Zhong and Prince Beijing and others secretly dispersed, the third prince Qi Zhen brought An Wuxia back to the cave outside the capital.

At this time, Empress Chen was overjoyed to see An Wuxia. Thanks to Bai He's hard work over the past few days, Empress Chen was still very weak, but she was getting better.

Here An Wuxia approached, knelt down and performed the state ceremony of paying homage to the queen. Queen Chen hurriedly helped her up, saying that it was not like in the palace at this time, so there was no need for extra ceremony. An Wuxia took a quick look and saw that Queen Chen was really: the morning sun just rose and shone on the four seas, and the moon was in the middle of the sky, bright and peaceful. At first glance, her phoenix-like appearance and dignified elegance deeply fascinated people. Wuxia secretly thought: "She is worthy of being the queen of Dayao. Although she has experienced the vicissitudes of life in the cold palace and is now haggard and weak, she still cannot hide her peerless grace."

Empress Chen gently held An Wuxia's hand and said softly and quietly, "I heard from Zhen'er that you cured the poison in my body and saved my life. I am so grateful."

An Wuxia then looked up at the Queen and said, "Your Majesty, you are too kind. Our An family has been practicing medicine for generations. Saving people from illness is my duty."

Only then did she see the queen's beautiful face clearly: her face was like a full moon floating in the clouds, bright and elegant, but also weak and breathless. Her eyebrows were as dark as ink, her eyes were as calm and wise as the stars in the sky, her nose was as straight as a snowy peak, and her lips were as bright as spring flowers. She was wearing a moon-white plain brocade dress. Although she was middle-aged and inevitably thin and haggard due to the torture in the cold palace, it was hard to miss her calmness, wisdom, elegance and brightness at a glance. Her eyebrows hinted at the mother's boldness, broad-mindedness and dignity. Seeing this, An Wuxia secretly exclaimed: "This Queen Chen is really like the bright moon in the sky, bright and clear, calm and wise. Don't you feel ashamed? In front of this bright moon, I am just like a dirty pool of clear water."

Seeing this, An Wuxia blushed shyly and lowered her head in silence. Qi Zhen beside her hurriedly said with a smile: "Miss An, what's wrong with you? Although it's the first time you meet the Queen Mother, she is extremely calm and gentle. You don't have to be restrained."

Empress Chen also smiled and said, "It's not the first time we've met. Three years ago, you treated me together in the Nine Phoenix Palace, and that's why I didn't go blind."

An Wuxia smiled and said, "I was young and inexperienced at the time. It was only because of your profound medical skills and blessing that I was able to recover my sight."

Qi Zhen pondered for a moment and said, "It was clearly the imperial concubine who poisoned my mother with the help of pollen, causing her to go blind. Thanks to you for coming and helping my mother detoxify in time, otherwise there would have been no hope of regaining her sight."

Empress Chen smiled and said sincerely, "Yes! This time in the cold palace, I was also poisoned by Concubine Mu. I thought Zhen'er was in trouble again and wanted to die. But I didn't expect that you saved our lives, which led to our reunion now. It seems that we are extremely destined to be together, Miss An, am I right?!"

An Wuxia looked at the queen's gentle and bright smile, and couldn't help but smile and said, "It was your majesty and the third prince who deserved to escape this disaster. I just did my little bit to help. Did the queen know that she was poisoned by Shui Han at that time?!"

The queen smiled and said, "The poison is raging in the body and causing a lot of coldness. According to my own diagnosis, it is a water-cold poison. Since Miss An was able to develop an antidote, it means that your medical skills have improved by leaps and bounds, and I cannot compare to them today."

An Wuxia bowed his head in shame and said, "Your Majesty, I am too kind. I was forced to take on this task reluctantly due to the situation. It was only because of God's mercy that I was able to get rid of the poison in the midst of danger."

Qi Zhen smiled and said, "Why do you two keep talking about your business every time you meet? I can't get a word in."

The Queen looked at An Wuxia lovingly and said, "I haven't seen you for three years. Miss An has grown into a more graceful lady. But we are both wanderers in this world. Your An family has also been framed by the Imperial Concubine and An Cheng. You have been displaced and it has been hard for you and your children."

An Wuxia bowed her head and said humbly, "Your Majesty is as dazzling as the sun and the moon in the sky. I admire you for being so open-minded and generous despite this disaster. I am just an ant in the vast world. It is normal for my family to survive in adversity. I hope that you and the third prince can return to the court one day, stabilize the country and the people, and benefit the world. Help me clear my family's grievances. I will be grateful to you."

The Queen held her hands lovingly and said, "Good child, Zhen'er and I are both people of firm faith. The imperial concubine and her son are cruel and unscrupulous in killing loyal people, and they are bound to lose the support of the people. But now they are fully grown and their claws are sharp. I am afraid it may not be easy to get rid of their power as soon as possible."

An Wuxia secretly thought to himself: "Empress Chen is so quiet, wise, beautiful and dignified, why can Concubine Mu be so charming to the emperor?! It seems that all men in this world are equally unreliable! Having a stunning wife, but still looking forward to a charming concubine, it turns out that the most unsatisfied thing is the human heart!"

Qi Zhen saw An Wuxia lowering her head and keeping silent, as if she was worried about something, so he patted her shoulder and said, "Don't worry, Miss An. I have sent people to transfer your grandparents, parents, and brother to the capital safely. You can come and treat them soon."

Qi Zhen had no idea what An Wuxia was thinking. She was just sighing that people's hearts were hard to predict. When she heard that his family was here, she immediately smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will treat the emperor as soon as possible according to our plan and prevent him from having any sequelae. Later, I will concentrate on treating my family and hope that God will help them get better as soon as possible."

Upon hearing this, Empress Chen looked at An Wuxia and the Third Prince in surprise and said, "What's wrong with the Emperor?!... And what's the situation with Miss An's family?!..."

An Wuxia realized that what she said was abrupt and she was too straightforward. She didn't know how to answer the queen, so she was choked and her face turned red.

Qi Zhen hurriedly held the Queen's hand and said, "Don't worry too much, Queen Mother. Father is just suffering from an old headache! As for Miss An's family, they all fell off a cliff during the pursuit and were seriously injured, so they need timely treatment."

After hearing this, the Queen took a deep breath and said, "Although I am not in the emperor's sight, His Majesty favors the treacherous concubine, but she has done many evil things. I hope His Majesty will recover soon, so that we have a chance to end this dark situation and let His Majesty not be blinded by the treacherous concubine and confuse His Majesty's heart."

Qi Zhen looked at his mother and said, "Don't worry, mother. I will plan everything carefully and strive to restore peace to the court and the people as soon as possible."

The Queen's eyes were filled with indescribable sadness. She looked at An Wuxia and said, "If you need my help in treating your family, I will do my best."

An Wuxia nodded and said, "The Queen's medical skills were passed down from my grandmother. It would be great if you could help her."

Bai He came over with the antidote and said, "Empress, you should take the antidote. You need to take it for two full months."

Qi Zhen saw this and said, "Mother, you must be tired after sitting for half a day. Take a good rest after drinking the medicine. We will go and discuss things first."

Queen Chen nodded, and just as she turned around, the third prince Qi Zhen couldn't wait to hold An Wuxia's hand. An Wuxia instinctively wanted to pull back, but was held tightly, unable to pull back. Queen Chen accidentally saw it, and found that during the conversation just now, Qi Zhen always took An Wuxia into consideration. Her son looked at her with tenderness and affection, and Queen Chen couldn't help but lower her head and smiled.

At the bank of the winding river, Qi Zhen and An Wu Xia hugged each other. An Wu Xia lowered her head and said ashamedly: "Are you blaming me for saying the wrong thing in front of the Queen?! I shouldn't have told her about His Majesty's illness."

Qi Zhen caressed the person in his arms, stroked her hair, and said gently and sweetly: "How could I blame you?! My mother and I have experienced life and death separation this time, what else can't we accept?"

An Wuxia was very happy at the moment. She said, "Being here always makes me feel happy and peaceful."

Qi Zhen smiled and said, "By the way, this cave doesn't have a name yet. How about you come and give it a name?!"

An Wuxia smiled and said, "The top of the cave here is a natural fluorite treasure, just like a dazzling starry sky. Inside the cave, it is spring all year round, and the scenery is picturesque. How about calling it Baotian Cave?"

Qi Zhen recited: "Baotian Cave, I have also thought of one, how about calling it Qi'an Cave Heaven?"

An Wuxia smiled calmly and said, "Pray for peace, there is another world, it is indeed a good name!"

Qi Zhen lowered his head and kissed her forehead gently, saying happily: "This is also our happy spiritual station and our secret starry sky."

The two were immersed in happiness and romance and were unwilling to separate. Qi Zhen sat on a stone bench by the river, and An Wuxia rested his head on her legs, and they spent a sweet and warm night together.
