The maidservant is too charming. I want to help her become the queen.

Chapter 77 Pretending to faint is shameful but useful

Lu Qingqing suddenly fainted, shocking everyone present.

Lu Panpan, who claimed to be her sister, exclaimed as if she had committed a heinous crime.

Erxi and Xiaotao also hurried forward and surrounded Lu Qingqing.

"Little Master!"

"Little Master!"

"What's wrong with you?!"

The imperial physician had not arrived yet.

Xiao Tao didn't care about so many things. Her mistress's condition was more important. She grabbed Lu Qingqing's wrist and anxiously took her pulse.

But the more she felt the pulse, the more she wondered.

what happened?

The pulse is beating evenly and strongly, everything is normal!

Xiaotao looked at Erxi with a puzzled look, pulled her to the side, and whispered to her in a very low voice.

"I just felt the young lady's pulse, but everything is normal. What's going on?"

They looked at each other and understood instantly.

It turns out that the young lady was pretending this time too!

Since Lu Qingqing was fine, the two of them felt relieved, but they still had to continue acting with the young lady.

Xiao Tao entered the tent and simply made the bed. Er Xi set up the door curtain at the entrance of the tent and asked Li Xuansheng:

"Your Majesty, the bed in the tent has been made. It's cold outside, why don't you let the young lady come in and rest."

"The imperial physician will be here soon and will treat you."

After hearing this, Li Xuansheng gave Erxi an approving look.

It must be because Lu Qingqing is a kind person and treats the palace maids very well, that her personal maid is willing to consider her in this way.

He didn't want to delay any longer and just wanted Lu Qingqing to wear it more comfortably.

Li Xuansheng picked up the fainted person in his arms, strode into the tent, and gently placed her on the bed. He then gathered her hair for her, fearing that he would accidentally squeeze it if he moved too fast.

But the environment in the tent is far inferior to that in the palace.

Not only was the bed very small, but even the candlelight inside the tent was not as bright as in the palace. The felt cloth covering the yurt tent had probably not been used for a long time, and the air inside the tent was filled with the smell of dust.

Li Xuansheng looked around and frowned.

Such a shabby environment is much worse than his imperial tent. How can the delicate and weak Lu Qingqing rest well? Moreover, she is still sick at the moment!

Li Xuansheng coughed a few times due to the dust in the air, and Xiaotao hurriedly served him a cup of tea.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. I was in such a hurry that I didn't have time to clean up the dust in the tent."

"Your Majesty, please moisten your throat with a cup of tea first."

Li Xuansheng immediately picked up the teacup.

Xiao Tao thought he was going to drink tea, but she didn't expect Li Xuansheng to take out a silk handkerchief from his arms and wet the handkerchief with tea until the handkerchief was completely soaked.

He squeezed out the water stains on the handkerchief, spread it out evenly, and placed it under Lu Qingqing's nose.

The air in the tent was not good, and he was afraid that Lu Qingqing would choke.

Erxi and Xiaotao were watching from the side, and both were amazed at Li Xuansheng's attentiveness.

It seems that the emperor really dotes on his young lady, and it is worth the young lady's painstaking planning.

Lu Qingqing lay on the bed with her eyes still closed. Her nose, which was suddenly covered with a silk handkerchief, instantly became moist, and it was indeed much more comfortable than before.

But she closed her eyes and didn't know that it was Li Xuansheng who did it himself. She thought it was Erxi or Xiaotao.

She secretly rejoiced.

How lucky she was! She was so touched to meet a maid who cared about her so much after traveling to the harem.

After Li Xuansheng had done all this, the imperial physician finally arrived.

Erxi and Xiaotao thought that it was Doctor Dou who came, but unexpectedly, a young stranger entered the tent.

Although Doctor Dou was the chief physician, according to the rules, he should travel with the emperor in the autumn hunt.

However, he was old, and the queen was still pregnant in the palace, so he did not go on the autumn hunt.

"Your humble servant, Meng Qi from the Imperial Hospital, pays respect to His Majesty."

Li Xuansheng waved his hands impatiently, his eyes full of disgust.

You are so young, but your legs are so slow. It took you so long to get here!

If Qingqing wasn't ill and in need of treatment, he would have sent Doctor Meng away!

Doctor Meng walked quickly forward and knelt in front of Lu Qingqing's bed to feel her pulse.

He took the patient's pulse for a long time, but lowered his head in thought without saying a word.

The pulse of this nobleman Ming is steady and strong, and he does not seem to be weak.

However, he fainted for no reason?

He glanced around out of the corner of his eye.

The emperor sat on the bed with an anxious look on his face, and the two Ming nobles' personal maids had the same expression.

In addition, before stepping into the tent, he saw Concubine Xian and the woman from Xuguan outside the tent, as well as a palace maid kneeling on the ground and crying.

He boldly speculated that this noble lady Ming, who was extremely favored by the emperor, must have pretended to faint in order to escape trouble outside the tent.

A gentleman is supposed to help others achieve their goals, but unfortunately he is not a gentleman.

However, as a mere imperial physician, why should he cause displeasure to the favored concubine?

Meng Qi quickly sorted out the messy interpersonal relationships in his mind and stood up to report to Li Xuansheng.

"Your Majesty, the pulse of the noble Ming is disordered. He must have suffered a great shock just now, which caused him to be restless and suddenly excited and fainted."

"Let me prescribe a tranquilizing decoction. After you take it, you will be able to wake up after a short rest."

Hearing him say this, Li Xuansheng felt relieved.

He narrowed his eyes and looked up and down at the young Doctor Meng.

I didn't expect that there was such a young talent in the Imperial Hospital. Just by taking Qingqing's pulse, he could analyze the cause of her fainting so accurately.

Li Xuansheng no longer had the anxiety he had just shown, and his voice returned to being calm and steady.

"Doctor Meng, your medical skills are not bad."

"Mrs. Ming has always been in a delicate state. You don't have to worry about anything else during this autumn hunt. Just focus on taking care of Ms. Ming."

Li Xuansheng's words immediately promoted Meng Qi from an ordinary accompanying imperial physician to Lu Qingqing's exclusive imperial physician.

In the harem, only the emperor, empress and queen mother are qualified to appoint their own imperial physician.

Although Lu Qingqing is just a favored noble, this is also a great honor for Meng Qi.

He kowtowed neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"My humble minister, thank you for your kindness!"

Meng Qi stepped back to boil the medicine, and not long after, he brought forward the calming decoction.

He saw Li Xuansheng still sitting on the bed, anxiously looking at Concubine Ming who had fainted on the bed, and immediately understood the position of Concubine Ming in the emperor's heart.

Meng Qi stepped forward and saluted.

"Your Majesty, the tranquilizing soup is ready. You need to serve it to the noble lady Ming."

Xiaotao stepped forward and took the medicine.

Erxi took out a round pillow and lifted Lu Qingqing's head slightly to lean it against the pillow so that Xiaotao could feed her the medicine.

However, Li Xuansheng sitting in front of the couch was a bit of a hindrance at this time.

Xiaotao was a little embarrassed.

"Your Majesty, I am going to feed the noble lady Ming some medicine. Please move aside."

After hearing Xiaotao say this, Li Xuansheng realized that he was a bit of a hindrance.

He muttered "Oh oh" subconsciously and stood up to make room for Xiaotao to feed the medicine.

Erxi took off the wet silk handkerchief from Lu Qingqing's mouth and nose. Xiaotao scooped a spoonful of dark brown medicine, blew it carefully, and put it to Lu Qingqing's lips.

Lu Qingqing was surprised as she drank.

Why is this medicine so sweet?

It seems to be brown sugar water!
