Ruyi's Rebirth: Ruyi's Disease Retreat Retreat

Chapter 17: Ruyi's kind words of advice; using herself as bait

After she finished speaking, she leaned over and helped Mei Dan up. "Mei Dan, considering that you are the Emperor's new wife, the Empress will not pursue this matter today. Here is the ointment for removing blood stasis and swelling. Please keep it. Don't delay your service to the Emperor."

The group then dispersed.

Ruyi sighed softly: "Hai Lan, let's go back."

"Empress Xian!" It was Mei who spoke.

Ruyi smiled as she looked at Mei and bowed. She asked, "Mei, are you okay?"

Mei's eyes were filled with tears, the corners of her mouth were broken, and both cheeks were severely swollen. She said, "Have you had enough of watching the fun, Your Majesty?"

"Go get the doctor to look at your face."

"Rui Ji, I advise you to be more reserved. You will live longer if you keep your edge."

Mei promised to meet Ruyi's deep eyes, and after a while she said, "Your Majesty, I don't know why I believe what you say so much."

"Maybe it's fate." Ruyi said.

Mei agreed and stretched out her hand and opened her palm. Occasionally a snowflake fell into her palm and then melted.

"I have remembered everything Your Majesty said. I will take my leave first." She bowed to Ruyi and turned to leave.

Ruyi was also tired after walking for such a distance, so惢心 helped her get on the sedan chair and they returned to Yiku Palace.

After returning to Yiku Palace, Ruyi asked惢心 to help her wash up, and after washing up, she fell into a deep sleep.

She was still asleep when Hongli came.

He asked惢心: "Has your master not rested well these nights?" He felt very puzzled. How could he sleep so soundly when it was only a short time after noon?

惢心 quickly replied, "Yes, the master has been waking up in the middle of the night lately. The imperial physician has come to see him and he has taken tranquilizers, but there is no effect."

Hongli frowned and rubbed her cheek with his fingers.

Feeling the touch, Ruyi slowly opened her eyes: "Your Majesty! Why are you here? Why didn't惢心 wake me up?"

"I told them not to wake you up. I heard from惢心 that you kept waking up in the middle of the night today. I sent Qi Ru to come and treat you."

Ruyi shook her head. She leaned on Hongli's knees and said softly, "I'm fine. Your Majesty, there's no need to send Doctor Qi. Doctor Jiang said I'm fine, but being pregnant is just a little hard."

Hongli nodded and stroked her hair: "Okay, that's good."

"Ruyi, you must be well. I am counting on you to give birth to a bunch of children for me."

Ruyi giggled, her shy red face becoming even more charming: "Who wants to have a bunch of babies?"

"Of course it's you!"

After staying together for a while, the emperor stood up and returned to the Yangxin Palace to review memorials. As he left, he was reluctant to leave and looked back every few steps.

He forced Ruyi to push him away.

惢心 and Jiang Yubin waited until the emperor left before going in.

"Master, Doctor Jiang is here."

Ruyi: "Doctor Jiang, please help me check if the pregnancy is stable."

Jiang Yebi bowed his head slightly and took a handkerchief to check Ruyi's pulse.

After a while, he withdrew his hand and said, "My lady, the pregnancy is stable and there is nothing wrong."

惢心 and Ruyi looked at each other and finally felt relieved.

"Thank you, Doctor Jiang, but I have one more thing to ask. I'd like to ask if there's an antidote to the cinnabar poison you've been poisoned with."

Jiang Yebin said bluntly, "This cinnabar poison is not difficult to cure, but why is Your Majesty asking this?"

Ruyi signals惢心 to tell Jiang Yubin the whole story.

"Your Majesty, do you want to take the risk? No, although a small amount of cinnabar is not fatal, your Majesty's body is precious and you are pregnant. Please forgive me for the rudeness and ask you to give up this idea." Jiang Yebin knelt on the ground and said sincerely.
