Harem Daily Life

He Linzhang's face was stern. He tapped the table with his fingers and thought for a moment before saying, "Go call the imperial physician and ask him to check my pulse. Also, check my meals carefully recently to see if anything has been mixed in."

Eunuch Zhang was delighted: "Yes, I will go and tell them right away. However, Your Majesty, if it is the meals in Fengyi Palace..." Now the emperor only goes to Fengyi Palace, and Eunuch Zhang cannot check it openly.

"Don't go to Fengyi Palace recently. If the Queen asks, just say I'm busy. There's no news about the negotiations with Yan State yet, so just say I'm busy with that." He Linzhang only remembered every little detail with the Queen and forgot about everyone else, which was a problem in itself.

He pinched his brows and thought of Concubine Tao's hurried back when she left, as if she was a young lady who ran away in anger. He sighed softly: "Do you know how I coaxed Concubine Tao before?"

Eunuch Zhang thought for a moment and said with a smile, "Empress Tao likes to read storybooks, so you can ask me to go to the city to find the latest storybooks and send them to her. Empress Tao likes gold, silver and jewelry, so you should give her double the amount every time. And... hehe, your majesty is not afraid of losing face and keeps sticking to Empress Tao until she is coaxed into doing what she wants."

He Linzhang: "..."

Do I have to go and coax people today? How awkward!

The imperial physician arrived quickly, and after examining the emperor, he did not find anything abnormal. He Linzhang's eyes darkened, and he waved his hand to let the imperial physician leave.

It was almost time for dinner, and He Linzhang thought of Concubine Tao who had left in anger during the day: "Let's go, and go to Changle Palace."

In Fengyi Palace, the Queen has been living very comfortably these past few days. She had not expected that the pill given by the monk was so magical. Ever since His Majesty secretly took it, His Majesty has really distanced himself from the harem and only has a special liking for herself. Even the favored Concubine Tao has been forgotten by His Majesty.

Seeing that the queen was in a good mood, Nanny Fang said happily, "Your Majesty, after a while, the effect of the medicine will reach its peak, and His Majesty will have no feelings for other women and only like you. From now on, the harem will be yours alone!"

The queen was happy, but still a little worried: "Do you think His Majesty will find out something?"

Nanny Fang pondered for a moment and said, "The medicine is colorless and tasteless. Even the imperial physician cannot diagnose anything. Don't worry, Your Majesty. Apart from not being able to remember other women, there will be no other effects. It will not harm Your Majesty's body, and Your Majesty will not notice it."

"But Concubine Tao is the favorite of His Majesty after all, and I still feel a little uneasy. How about thinking of a way to get her out of the way? As long as she is out of His Majesty's sight, His Majesty will definitely not think of this person again after a long time." The queen clasped her hands together, trembling slightly.

Seeing her nervousness, Nanny Fang comforted her, "Last year, Concubine Tao went to the temporary palace with the Queen Mother. How about this year, we can say that the Queen Mother needs care and let her go again?"

The Queen nodded and said, "It's almost time. If it weren't for the incident with the Third Prince, I'm afraid the Queen Mother would have already prepared to leave. But don't be too deliberate about this matter. Just mention it once, and then let His Majesty issue an order to force her to go."

The two talked for a while, and then a young eunuch came in and reported: "Your Majesty, I was ordered to invite Your Majesty. The people in the Qinzheng Palace said that Your Majesty went to Changle Palace to see his three children and would not come to Fengyi Palace."

"What?" The Queen's face turned pale instantly and she looked at Nanny Fang: "Do you think he is..."

Nanny Fang shook her head and said, "Your Majesty, please be patient." After that, she winked at the eunuch, who hurriedly left. Nanny Fang then said, "Your Majesty, please do not panic. The monk said that the medicine is the most effective. Your Majesty will definitely not remember Concubine Tao. In my opinion, most of them are here to see the child. The eldest princess has lost her mother's protection, and the second prince is from the common people. Even if Your Majesty goes to see her, it will be to see the second princess. It will be good for Your Majesty. Don't scare yourself."

The queen calmed down a little: "Send someone to keep an eye on it. Although the monk said the medicine is very effective, what if there is an accident?"

Nanny Fang nodded in agreement and hurriedly left to do her business.

He Linzhang sat in the main seat, looking at the table full of dishes, feeling a little dazed. He remembered the three children, but was a little unfamiliar with Concubine Tao. Now the scene of five people sitting around the table to eat seemed to appear frequently in his mind. He even remembered the three children fighting for the seat next to Concubine Tao.

Tao Yanyan looked at him several times and saw that he seemed to have no appetite, so he peeled a shrimp and wanted to put it in his bowl, but at the last moment, he stopped.

He Linzhang saw it out of the corner of his eye and froze slightly. A scene of himself being fed by a little girl seemed to flash through his mind.

With a splitting headache, He Linzhang put down his chopsticks and held his head.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?" Tao Yanyan asked hurriedly when he saw that he looked uncomfortable.

He Linzhang looked at her with a pale face, meeting her worried eyes. He sighed softly: "I have a headache, it's okay, it will be fine after a while." As long as he didn't think about those memories, he wouldn't feel any pain.

Tao Yanyan served him a bowl of soup: "Drink more soup, it's very nutritious." Then, as if she thought of something, she peeled a shrimp and put it in his bowl.

He Linzhang ate the soup and shrimps and finished the meal slowly.

After dinner, Tao Yanyan wanted to take the three children to the yard for a walk to digest the food. He glanced at He Linzhang and said, "Your Majesty, do you want to go with us? If not, you can go to the study first."

She was now a stranger to He Linzhang. In order to avoid embarrassment, He Linzhang chose to go to the study alone.

Tao Yanyan didn't say anything and asked Mingyue to lead the way. Mingyue was stunned and felt something was wrong, but she still led the emperor to the study obediently.

He Linzhang looked at Tao Yanyan deeply, then left with Mingyue with an expressionless face.

Xiao Jinan patted his head and said, "Mother, Father knows how to get to the study, why do you still need Mingyue to lead the way?"

Tao Yanyan looked at the direction the emperor left, lowered his head and pinched little Jinan's face: "Your father is a little unwell today. I feel at ease with Mingyue leading the way." After that, he took the three children to the yard.

The courtyard was filled with a breeze in late autumn, bringing a refreshing coolness. After the four of them played for a while, Xiao Jinan and He Xuan forcibly dragged He Yue away to review their homework. Tao Yanyan was bored, so he walked to the children's swing and sat on it, swinging slowly.

When He Linzhang saw Mr. Yougui's calligraphy and the copied words in the study, his frown relaxed and he curled his lips: "So, I liked her so much before." This calligraphy was the only one in the world and it could be placed in Concubine Tao's study, which just showed that the two of them had a very deep relationship before.

Thinking back to when Concubine Tao asked her maid to lead the way, He Linzhang knew that Concubine Tao must have discovered that he had forgotten, so she did this.

If two people who have a very good relationship suddenly forget everything, the other one should be worried and helpless, right?

He Linzhang stood up. He really wanted to see her and talk to her.
