The wives of the concubines are empresses

The carriage entered the capital city. Concubine Ran - Wang Ran lifted the curtain and looked outside. The hawking sounds in the streets were heard one after another, and there was a strong atmosphere of the daily life.

Concubine Wu - Zhu Wu just looked at his actions indifferently and sat upright.

County Magistrate Zheng Wei, who was standing by, felt the indifference coming from Concubine Wu and did not dare to make any big movements, for fear of attracting Concubine Wu's attention.

When he entered the palace this time, he still didn't understand what the emperor meant by this move.

Seeing the bustling streets becoming increasingly blurred, County Magistrate Zheng Wei sighed inwardly.

He kept thinking on the way, wondering what the emperor would say to him. After thinking about it, he felt that it might still be a question of how to govern the county magistrate.

Guard Xia Zhiming took the token to the guards at the gate of the Black Palace for inspection. In addition to the token, Concubine Wu Zhu Wu also had a letter of oral instructions written by the emperor himself.

"Princess Ran, Concubine Wu, and Lord Zheng, please come in."

Concubine Wu - Zhu Wu nodded lightly, then lowered the curtain and the carriage continued to move forward.

This was the second time that County Magistrate Zheng Wei entered the palace. The first time was the year he passed the imperial examination. The past memories came flooding back, but it had been many years ago.

Shangguan Wanjun saw the three people walk in one after another and sit upright on the phoenix chairs.

Ranpin - Wang Ran said with a slightly excited look: "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."

Concubine Wu - Zhu Wu was still indifferent, but much better than before.

"Your Majesty, your humble servant."

When County Magistrate Zheng Wei saw the empress for the first time, his whole body was stiff and he felt terrified and nervous.

"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you and wish you the best of luck."

"Excuse me, are you Lord Zheng Wei?"

County Magistrate Zheng Wei bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I am the official who did it."

"Everyone sit down and talk."

Aunt Cheng asked someone to watch the tea, and soon Lily, Rose, and Ma Xue from the Tea Fragrance Courtyard came up one by one with cups of Tieguanyin tea and placed them on the tea table.

"You three have been exhausted from the journey. You should rest up and have dinner together."

The three of them nodded slightly. Before leaving, Concubine Ran - Wang Ran turned around and glanced at Shangguan Wanjun, but she happened to be talking to Minglan. He felt a little disappointed and then turned and left.

"Minglan, how is Zhang Xinzhuang's leg?"

Minglan pondered for a moment: "I heard from Xianyun that he seems to be better than before."

Shangguan Wanjun smiled softly: "It seems that massage is really effective."

It’s a pity that the other party didn’t understand, and five years were wasted in vain.

Too Hospital

Zhao Xianyun instructed the young eunuch to massage Zhang Xinzhuang's legs. This set of techniques was taught to her by the emperor.

The Emperor personally demonstrated it to the Empress Dowager of the Eastern Palace, which surprised the Empress Dowager of the Eastern Palace.

"Xin Zhuang, how do you feel after massaging your legs for a cup of tea?" She had to record the situation in a timely manner.

"I didn't feel anything at first, and now I still don't feel anything, but I feel a little better."

Zhao Xianyun, dressed in a female doctor's uniform, nodded: "Okay."

This is also good news and a good phenomenon.

The head physician, Dr. Wang, was standing behind them the entire time and heard every word of their conversation.

At the door of the imperial study, Doctor Wang looked at Shi Qingxue.

"Please help inform Eunuch Shi that Mr. Wang wants to see you regarding something important." Everyone around the emperor, especially those who serve him, must be treated with extreme caution.

Shi Qingxue saw the silver in his hand and took it happily.

The emperor said that some things would not be affected, but she could boldly collect money and she would not disallow it. But some things required careful consideration.

Seeing Shi Qingxue coming in, Shangguan Wanjun looked at her and waited for him to report.

"Your Majesty, Imperial Physician Wang is requesting an audience outside the palace."

"Doctor Wang?"

"Yes."

"Xuan."

What does the dean want her for?

Doctor Wang came over in his official uniform.

"I see you, Your Majesty."

"Excuse me, my dear, is there anything I can do for you?"

Doctor Wang thought for a moment before speaking: "Your Majesty, I think that Mr. Zhang's leg might be better treated with acupuncture."

Acupuncture?

Shangguan Wanjun's eyes lit up, and she thought of the old Chinese doctors she had seen in her previous life. Some people's arm problems could be cured a lot by acupuncture.

"That's feasible. Doctor Wang, go ahead and do it. I'm waiting for your good news." Massage plus acupuncture, plus daily conditioning and exercise, the possibility of recovery should be much greater.

Doctor Wang was delighted when he heard this: "I will do my best."

If the new emperor does nothing after ascending the throne, the situation of these old ministers will become somewhat embarrassing.

"Go back."

If this matter is handled well, it will be a major event that benefits the country and the people.

"My minister retire."

At dinner time, Concubine Ran - Wang Ran, Concubine Wu - Zhu Wu, County Magistrate Zheng Wei and others took their seats before the emperor sat down in turn.

"Thank you all for your hard work during these days of traveling."

The three of them leaned forward slightly and said, "Your Majesty is joking."

"Let's eat. The dishes on the table are all the favorites of Concubine Ran and Concubine Wu. There are also a few dishes that I specially asked the imperial kitchen to prepare for Lord Zheng. Everyone, please try them."

The three of them were very touched that the emperor cared so much about them.

After the meal, the four of them chatted in the imperial study.

"How is Anren County doing now?" It seemed that Concubine Ran had been away for more than two or three months.

Ranpin - Wang Ran said gently: "There are a lot more shops and stalls in Anren County now. The economy is much better than before, and the people have many jobs." It is really much better than when he went there.

Shangguan Wanjun smiled with satisfaction: "That's very good."

It’s a pity that she can’t see it with her own eyes. The whole world belongs to her, but she can’t witness it all. Isn’t this a regret?

Concubine Wu - Zhu Wu has been sitting indifferently on the side, only occasionally responding to what everyone said.

After spending a few hours together, County Magistrate Zheng Wei was no longer as nervous as before.

"Your Majesty, this is all thanks to your concern and foresight, as well as the diligent work of Ranpin, Cejun and others."

"Master Zheng, you're joking. This is all thanks to everyone. I dare not take credit for it. You, County Magistrate Li, and Master Yan have all done a lot."

"But Concubine, you are too modest."

Seeing how polite and sincere the two were, Shangguan Wanjun curled the corners of her mouth.

"Don't be so modest, you all did a great job. By the way, Concubine Wu, didn't you bring a painter with you? Let me take a look."

Concubine Wu Zhu Wu bowed and said, "Yes, Your Majesty."

As the eunuchs opened the paintings one by one, Shangguan Wanjun stepped forward to admire them.

There are streets in the painting; people are harvesting rice; ladies are going out shopping; there are vendors shouting, and the painting is full of the flavor of life.

Through the paintings, Shangguan Wanjun has imagined many scenes.

"It looks good, and the artist's painting is also good. Enjoy."

The painter department, who accompanied Concubine Wu Zhu Wu to Anren County, was delighted to receive a set of accessories and a set of painting tools and supplies as rewards from the emperor.

This was the first time he was rewarded by the empress. It was an honor and trust.

Concubine Wu - Zhu Wu and County Magistrate Zheng Wei withdrew, leaving Shangguan Wanjun and Concubine Ran - Wang Ran in the imperial study.

"My beloved, let's go back to the Dragon Palace." The night was getting late, and it was time to take a bath, wash up, change clothes and rest.

The two of them strolled along the palace road, on their way to the Dragon's Bedchamber.

"My beloved, have you adapted well these days?" As a child of a noble family, he must have never suffered such hardship.
