Deep Palace Pet Peach Blossom Flawless

Ruhan felt slightly relieved after hearing this.

In the Cining Palace, Concubine Li Wanying placed the tray on the dining table and bowed gracefully to Empress Dowager Li: "Your Majesty, this is the yam dessert I made. Please enjoy it."

Empress Dowager Li nodded slightly, her eyes unconsciously looking at Concubine Li's belly: "How has His Majesty treated you recently?"

Concubine Li paused, "Empress Dowager, His Majesty hasn't summoned the six palaces to his bedchamber recently, and I haven't seen His Majesty for a few days."

Empress Dowager Li frowned, slightly impatient: "You really are...Okay, you can leave first."

Concubine Li could only reply, "Yes, Your Majesty the Queen Mother."

His Majesty is not the only one who refuses to summon her to the bedchamber. The Queen Mother only knows how to put pressure on herself, but His Majesty treats himself... Does the Queen Mother dare to blame His Majesty?

After Li Guiren left, Empress Dowager Li said to Li Ma Ma worriedly, "What on earth is the Emperor thinking? Is it the same as before..."

Nanny Li considered it carefully and said, "That's impossible. I heard that His Majesty has been very busy recently. There are epidemics in several villages outside the imperial city, and the matter of the Deer King... Perhaps His Majesty will set foot in the six palaces in a while."

Empress Dowager Li sighed lightly and thought of the fifth prince Zhou Qihuai again. Seeing Empress Dowager Li's expression, Nanny Li didn't dare to say anything.

Concubine Li returned to her Siying Palace and sat on the imperial concubine couch with a gloomy face. The senior palace maid behind her replied cautiously: "My lady, I have found the medicine you asked me to find when you left the palace last time."

Concubine Li smiled faintly: "Good! Well done!"

After hearing Ruhan's report back after returning to the palace, Lan Qingwu's heart sank, and he immediately ordered: "Ruhan, Ruping, everyone in Suowu Palace should wear sachets, boil water, defensive herbs, and mugwort."

Ruhan Ruping quickly nodded in agreement.

In the imperial city, Leng Qujing, holding a special search warrant, began to search house by house. For a while, the imperial city was in a state of panic and everyone was on the lookout for enemies.

Late at night, Emperor Shenwu came to Suowu Palace and the two fell asleep in each other's arms.

That afternoon, Ruhan walked into the bedroom of Suowu Palace carrying a tray. She bent her knees slightly and said, "Master, this is lotus pastry. It uses the freshest lotus leaves and is said to clear away heat and relieve summer heat. I asked someone to teach me how to make it. Please try it first."

Lan Qingwu put down the scroll in his hand and gently covered his stomach: "I won't have a good time this time. You and Ruping can share it. I will try your cooking another day."

Ruhan quickly put down the tray in his hand and said, "Master, do you want Nie Wushuang to come and check Ping'an's pulse?"

Lan Qingwu shook his head gently: "Do you think he doesn't come often enough? Doctor Nie should come to Suowu Palace tomorrow to check Ping's pulse. It's just an old problem. I just need to take a break. Where's Ruping?"

"Ruping went to sort out some clothes."

Lan Qingwu's fingertips lightly brushed across the pages of the book: "You two enjoy it!"

This was supposed to be a very ordinary afternoon. At that time, Lan Qingwu still didn't know what she would face the next day!

The next morning, Lan Qingwu woke up and found that Ruhan and Ruping were not in the dormitory. She called out softly, "Ruping? Ruhan?"

Ruyan, who was guarding the bedroom door, hurried in and bowed, "Your Majesty, Ruhan had a high fever this morning, and Ruping is also feeling a little unwell. Ruping specifically asked this servant, Ruyue, and I to serve Your Majesty today."

Lan Qingwu frowned slightly. "Both of them are sick? Ruyan, tell Ruyue to get Imperial Physician Nie Wushuang."

Lan Qingwu was about to get out of bed when something suddenly flashed through her mind. Her eyes slowly widened, and a terrible guess lingered in her mind.

Lan Qingwu's voice was terrifyingly calm. "Ruyan, you must immediately ask Imperial Physician Nie to come to Suowu Palace and tell him directly about Ruping and Ruhan's illnesses. Tell him not to come to see me and to go directly to Ruping and Ruhan's residence."

Seeing Lan Qingwu's heavy expression, Ruyan's heart began to beat fast: "I will go right away!"

Ruyan left in a hurry, and Lan Qingwu called Ruyue back and gave her some instructions.

The entire Suowu Palace was shrouded in haze.

In the Qianzheng Hall, Li Xiang hurried in and bowed, "Your Majesty, Ruyue, the second-class maid of Suowu Palace, came to report that something happened in Suowu Palace."

Emperor Shenwu put down the scroll in his hand and stood up. "What happened? Why is Ruyue here to report?"

"This...I don't know either. Ruyue said that the Empress ordered her to say so."

Emperor Shenwu strode down and said, "Let's go and take a look!"

When Emperor Shenwu entered the Suowu Palace, he was struck by the unusual silence. He entered the main hall of the palace and was about to enter the bedroom when he found Nie Wushuang kneeling outside the bedroom door, completely blocking the entrance.
