An Lingrong's Rebirth: I will not offend others unless they offend me
Chapter 559: Mother Shen Enters the Palace
A Jin waited quietly at the door for a moment before calmly speaking.
"Your Highness, Imperial Physician Zhao is here!"
"Ah Jin, please ask Doctor Zhao to come in."
Prince Guo personally lifted the curtain and welcomed the person in.
The next afternoon, the sun shone dappled on the glazed tiles of the Hall of Mental Cultivation. The emperor was buried in a mountain of memorials. Su Peisheng said that Doctor Zhao, who had rushed back from Anqi Temple for Concubine Shu, wanted to see him.
"How is Concubine Shu?"
Doctor Zhao, whose eyes were dark blue, replied respectfully.
"Your Majesty, the Concubine Dowager is old, and the fall she suffered last night was too severe. I'm afraid she will need to stay in bed for a long time to recuperate."
"It seems to me that the Queen Mother has suffered a head injury, and her speech is a little confused."
The emperor became interested and asked eagerly.
"What did the Toffee say?"
"The Concubine Dowager has been talking about wanting to see her eldest grandson."
When Su Peisheng went to see him, he told him to pay more attention to the Queen Dowager's illness.
Even though Doctor Zhao was so uncomfortable that he could hardly stand in Anqi Temple, he still remembered everything that happened.
"Want to see the eldest grandson? The concubine is indeed very ill."
The emperor muttered to himself, then gave another order.
"Su Peisheng, send someone to take Ye and Hongming to Anqi Temple to attend to Concubine Shu's illness."
Seeing that Doctor Zhao looked haggard, he thought for a few breaths.
"Wen Shichu is a skilled doctor. He cured Madam Zhang, who had been bedridden for years. Ask him to go to Anqi Temple and have Concubine Shu see him."
"The slave obeys."
Su Peisheng knew that Wen Shichu was responsible for Concubine Zhen's dragon fetus, but he was tactful enough not to point it out.
The emperor even knew everything Wen Shichu had done, so there was no need for him to remind him of such a small matter.
Wen Shichu, who was on duty at the Imperial Hospital, suppressed his panic immediately when he heard the order from Xiao Xiazi.
He invited Xiao Xiazi aside and asked in a low voice.
"Eunuch Xia, may I ask if the Emperor has asked me to stay at Anqi Monastery permanently?"
"Sir Wen, I only know that you are an excellent doctor and are highly regarded by the Emperor."
Xiao Xiazi spread her hands, indicating that she didn't know.
Wen Shichu was stunned, pulled off the purse hanging around his waist and stuffed it into Xiao Xiazi's hand.
"My mother had a cough a few days ago, and as a son, I was obligated to care for her by her bedside. I was on duty at the Imperial Hospital during the day, and could return home at night to fulfill my filial duties. Could Eunuch Xia please advise me on whether I could travel back and forth between Anqi Temple and the capital?"
Xiao Xiazi put the heavy purse into the big purse hanging around her waist without leaving any trace, and talked about another thing.
"The day before yesterday, Imperial Physician Zhao accompanied the prince to Anqi Temple to see the Dowager Consort, and returned the next day to report to the Emperor."
"Sir Wen, I have to go to the Prince's Mansion to pick someone up, so I'll go ahead. Please catch up as soon as possible."
Wen Shichu chewed over Xiao Xiazi's words carefully, and the worry in his eyes dissipated slightly.
As long as he doesn't have to stay at Anqi Temple for a long time, he can continue to take Huan'er's pulse to ensure her pregnancy.
After delivering the news to Zhongcui Palace, he was still worried and specifically instructed his new apprentice to pay more attention to the movements over there.
As soon as Zhen Huan heard the news that Wen Shichu was going to Anqi Temple to take Concubine Shu's pulse, she became very uneasy.
How come the Emperor just happened to send Wen Shichu to see Concubine Shu?
Although Wen Shichu promised to come back in time to help her with the pregnancy, Zhen Huan felt uneasy from the bottom of her heart.
Her family has not yet returned to the capital, and her father's injustice has not yet been cleared, so she must not make any mistakes.
Zhen Huan was so anxious that she kept pacing around in her bedroom.
Cui Jinxi saw her dilemma clearly, and she handed the warm red date tea to Zhen Huan.
"Master, red date tea warms the heart and stomach. Please take a couple of sips to calm your mind."
"Jinxi, I can't calm down. Concubine Hua has been eyeing my belly covetously. If she knew Wen Shichu was not in the Imperial Hospital, I don't know what stupid tricks she would use to deal with him."
But Zhen Huan couldn't tell Wen Shichu to ignore Concubine Shu.
Cui Jinxi also understood her master's true intention, but she could not continue with the words, let alone tell her that Prince Guo would find a way to get Wen Shichu back as soon as possible.
"Master, Imperial Physician Wen has just taken your pulse. No other Imperial Physician will be coming in the near future."
"Doctor Wen is a man who knows the seriousness of the situation. I suspect he will be back before the next pulse check."
"You have a point. A few days ago, I told everyone that I was not feeling well to scare Lady Qi. It seems that I can't stay in the palace today."
Zhen Huan took the cloak that was placed aside.
"I made yam and jujube paste cake in the small kitchen. It's exactly what Sister Mei likes to eat."
"I haven't seen her for a few days. Let's go to Yonghe Palace."
As soon as Zhen Huan stepped into the gate of Yonghe Palace, she found that the faces of the palace servants she met were all beaming with joy.
"Caiyue, is there any big happy event in the palace?"
"Replying to Her Majesty Zhenpin, the Ministry of Internal Affairs sent a message early this morning saying that Madam will be entering the palace tomorrow morning."
Caiyue smiled and led Zhen Huan inside.
"The master is in a very good mood, and everyone in Yonghe Palace has received a reward."
"Aunt Shen is entering the palace tomorrow? This is indeed a great joyous event."
Zhen Huan walked in through the opened curtain and saw Shen Meizhuang, who was pregnant, looking at the ornaments moved out of the warehouse.
She looked up when she heard the noise.
"Huan'er, you've arrived just in time. Mother will be entering the palace tomorrow, and I'd like to place some ornaments in her residence. I don't know what to choose, so please come and help me."
"Okay, I'll come and give you some advice."
Zhen Huan's eyes swept across the boxes and cages on the ground, which contained some rare treasures.
Her eyes flashed, it seemed that Sister Mei had lived quite well in the past four years.
"Sister Mei, although I have never met Aunt Shen, I can guess that Aunt Shen must be a person who likes simple and elegant things because of how well she raised you."
"If you choose some simple ornaments, calligraphy and paintings, ancient books, etc., I'm sure they will suit her taste."
"Huan'er is right. I was so happy that I was dazzled by the choices."
The smile on Shen Meizhuang's face couldn't be suppressed.
My father worked in Shandong, and our whole family settled there.
In the past, Concubine Hua was considerate of the concubines and allowed them to take turns meeting their families.
But her mother lived far away, and she only had a brief meeting with her grandmother and aunt.
This was the first time Shen Meizhuang saw her mother after entering the palace, so how could she not be excited?
Zhen Huan looked happy for Shen Meiyu, but a closer look revealed that her smile did not reach her eyes.
Shen Meizhuang happily welcomed Madam Shen into the palace, but not only did her family suffer outside, she also had to worry about the child in her belly day and night.
In comparison, Zhen Huan naturally felt even more uncomfortable.
She had something important to tell him, but she didn't even tell Cui Jinxi.
Zhen Huan found that her belly was much bigger this time than when she was pregnant with Long Yue, and she didn't dare to eat too much at every meal.
Even if Cui Jinxi offered her the supplements eagerly, she would find an excuse to send the person away and then quietly pour the supplements into the flowerpot.
