Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 951

When the Empress Dowager saw that Li Tianlin was smart and filial, and his words were pleasant to the ear, her eyes turned deep for a moment, and no one knew what she was thinking.

After a long while, she waved to him, asking him to come closer, and sighed, "If the King of Jin had half of your wisdom, I wouldn't have to worry so much, alas."

Li Tianlin was almost in tears because of these compliments. He only hated that he did not have the identity of King Jin and hated that he was not the emperor's son.

Good luck fooling people!

He knelt before the Empress Dowager with tears in his eyes, and kowtowed sincerely, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your praise."

The Empress Dowager looked at the young face and felt inexplicably dazed. She suddenly recalled the panic she felt when she first entered the palace and was trapped in these high red walls and green tiles.

It was the late emperor who took her hand and said, "Don't be afraid, this will be your home from now on."

But there were too many people in the house and it was so crowded that she had no chance to make decisions.

It was already midnight. This was the most private residence in the Empress Dowager's palace. The palace maid on duty had been drugged and fainted outside the palace.

The room was not big, but it was luxurious everywhere. The Empress Dowager sat on the edge of a long and narrow rosewood bed with a velvet blanket on her legs.

She just looked at Li Tianlin... Did he look like him? Actually not. This boy looked more like his mother.

She couldn't help but raise her hand, stroke Li Tianlin's head, and sighed deeply.

Li Tianlin knelt in front of the Empress Dowager. Perhaps because he was excited, or perhaps because he wanted to show his filial piety from the bottom of his heart, he stretched out his hand to massage the Empress Dowager's legs.

But as soon as he touched the Empress Dowager's leg, he was frightened by a cold gasp from the other party and retracted his hand.

"My nephew and grandnephew just wanted to massage the Empress Dowager's legs. I didn't mean to offend you." Li Tianlin explained embarrassedly but piously.

This is his ancestor!

As soon as he said this, he realized something was wrong. Why did he smell a strange stench?

Looking more closely, I saw that even in this June weather, the Empress Dowager was still covering her legs with a thick blanket.

At this time, the Empress Dowager had collapsed on the bed in pain, and she trembled, "Quick, quick, bring me some medicine."

Li Tianlin was stunned for a moment, "What medicine? Where is it?"

The Empress Dowager pointed to the dragon-shaped mother-of-pearl inlaid table beside her with trembling fingers, "Quick, under the table."

Li Tianlin followed the Empress Dowager's instructions and found an ingenious mechanism under the table.

After opening the mechanism, the auspicious cloud pattern originally carved on the side of the table suddenly cracked, revealing a small box inside.

Li Tianlin quickly opened the box and was stunned.

Is the Queen Mother taking longevity cream?

Without thinking too much, he quickly handed the box to the Queen Mother.

At this time, the Empress Dowager was unable to speak. She just trembled and pointed at the dressing box on the table.

There was a small jade smoking utensils inside, and Li Tianlin used it to light a pill of longevity paste for the Empress Dowager.

After squinting her eyes and puffing out smoke for a while, the Queen Mother finally recovered.

Li Tianlin also saw a part of the Empress Dowager's calf exposed under the blanket that accidentally slipped off.

The leg was festering and pus was oozing out, revealing a large area of ​​bloody red. The stench was also caused by the pus sticking together and not being treated in time.

Li Tianlin's eyes were filled with tears. "Empress Dowager, your legs, how did they become like this?"
