Chapter 112: Another Situation
There was an arc of unknown meaning on his lips, but the man's eyes were a little lazy, looking very charming, his fingers were slightly cool, caressing her cheeks, and the woman's unconscious trembling deepened his smile, adding a little mischievous meaning.
"In this way, you are willing to enter the palace, so prove it with your actions."
Xia Ruotong closed her eyes painfully, but in an instant, she opened her eyes forcefully, and when she accepted the baptism of a man, she also obeyed the arrangement of fate by the way.
The next morning, after asking the queen to come out, she probably swung on the swing for most of the night last night, so that she caught a cold and her throat hurt very much, so Dou Lianyi sent Su Yun to ask the imperial doctor to take a look.
Back at the Crescent Moon Pavilion, as soon as he removed the pearl hairpin jade ring, the little eunuch reported that the "Xia Guiren" was coming, Dou Lianyi hurriedly got up and greeted him, "Just now at the queen's place, everyone is happy, my sister can't interject, this will be you, just to say hello to my sister." β
That will be in the middle palace, every woman in the harem will be true or false to Xia Gui, who promised to be dew last night, but she has never said a word, and her throat is uncomfortable, for fear that a mouth will be exposed, which will attract ridicule.
Second, my heart was really painful, and I didn't want to speak.
"Others don't know, my sister also came to make fun of me." Xia Ruotong opened his mouth, and his eyes were already red.
Dou Lianyi knew that the vinegar tasted a little wrong this time, so he hurriedly ordered Xiuzhu to go outside to guard, pulled Xia Ruotong to the couch and sat down together, and asked urgently: "He didn't see the flaw, right?" β
"Fortunately, there is no danger." Xia Ruotong said the section that he interrogated last night, "This morning, the emperor suddenly asked me: Do you have a good relationship with Mrs. Dou?" β
Dou Lianyi was taken aback: "How did you answer?" β
"I almost denied it, but after a second thought, I nodded yes." Speaking of this, Xia Ruotong still had palpitations at this time, and his face became more and more pale, "As a result, the emperor seemed to come casually and said: It's strange, she hurt you like that, you don't hate it?" β
Dou Lianyi couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this man can be described as the ancestor of mental tricks, and he can't hide anything from him, but fortunately, Xia Ruotong is sitting here safely, and she should have dealt with it.
"I replied: The concubine was hated, but after hearing the story of the emperor and the late queen, she didn't hate it, so the queen also loves you so much that she will do such an unbearable thing."
Dou Lianyi was so shocked by this sentence that he couldn't speak for a long time, and at the end, he finally remembered and asked, "How do you know?" β
"In fact, after that day, I had some suspicions, although there was a queen who interceded, but the emperor clearly didn't want to punish you, otherwise, it would be a big crime to not choose a show, why was it just a light punishment?" Xia Ruotong paused, and then explained the reason in detail: "Later, I won the favor of the Queen Mother, and once I had the courage to ask, and sure enough, I asked a hidden story, sister, you hide it from me so hard." β
Here's a gloomy look, and said with a wry smile: "What's there to make a show off after the abolition, what's more, Queen Moon doesn't want others to know about my storage, so my sister doesn't mention a word outside, otherwise she will cause unnecessary trouble to herself." β
"Yes, I understand." Xia Ruotong nodded vigorously.
At this time, Su Yun reported outside: "Mrs. Dou, the imperial doctor is here." β
"Invite him in."
Dou Lianyi commanded, and Xia Ruotong then laughed: "It's because your throat is dry and itchy, what kind of doctor can you ask me if this half-baked man is okay." β
"Exactly, how did I forget you."
While the two were joking, Xiuzhu brought someone in, and muttered as she walked: "This hospital also watches people put dishes, and I actually sent such a young doctor to come, and I don't know if it will be sick." β
"Xiuzhu, don't be rude." At the same time that Dou Lianyi scolded lightly, he found that this imperial doctor was really very young, wearing a five-grade medical official uniform, which belonged to the lowest level of the imperial hospital, and he had just entered the palace.
The man stepped forward and saluted: "Weichen Xu Huaiyu greets Mrs. Dou." β
A local sound came from the side, Dou Lianyi looked at it, Xia Ruotong originally used the tea lid to pluck the floating leaves on the water surface, but somehow the tea cover slipped from his hand, splashed the tea, and hurriedly took the tea cup and asked, "Is it hot?" β
"No, no." Xia Ruotong waved his hand again and again, looking panicked.
Imperial Physician Xu seemed to be even more nervous than her: "The back of the nobleman's hand spilled tea, I'm afraid it hurts a lot...... If it is a scar, it will not be good, Weichen has medicine for scalds. As he spoke, he took out a paste from the portable medicine compartment and handed it to Xiuzhu, who was waiting on the side, "Please help the noble person apply it." β
"No need." Xia Ruotong stared at his toes, but he covered the back of his hand but refused.
Imperial Physician Xu is very dedicated, and he persuaded bitterly on the side: "Although the smell of medicine is strong, it can heal wounds, noble people...... Let's put it on. β
The heart of the doctor's parents, but Dou Lianyi felt that the care of this imperial doctor seemed to be beyond the Cheng dΓΉ that a doctor should have, and looked over with a little confusion, just as Imperial Doctor Xu stared at Xia Ruotong.
That glance, although it was a glimpse, the care and true feelings in the eyes were undoubtedly revealed.
Suddenly moved in her heart, thinking of Xia Ruotong's gaffe, she seemed to understand a little, and couldn't help frowning, these two people were too bold, they actually met in the palace, if someone found out, ten heads would not be enough to pluck.
"Xiuzhu, you can help Xia Guiren paint it." Dou Lianyi coughed, "Imperial Doctor Xu, can you diagnose the pulse?" β
Imperial Physician Xu stared at him and said respectfully: "Weichen, let's ask Mrs. Dou for a pulse." As she spoke, she took out the soft pillow for pulse diagnosis and put it under her wrist, waited for a silk handkerchief on it, and fingered the pulse.
After a while, Imperial Physician Xu took his fingers: "Mrs. Dou is occasionally infected with wind and cold, and the false fire rises, so that her throat is uncomfortable, Weichen can be drugged, but it is a three-point poison, if you stew Sydney pear with rock sugar and take it, you can be cured without medicine in a few days." β
"This method is good, but where to get Sydney now."
The voice fell, and Xia Ruotong next to him said softly: "In the morning, the emperor asked someone to reward a lot of things, including Sydney pears from the southeast, and I will ask someone to send them over." β
"You see, the emperor loves you so much, I'm afraid that in addition to the queen mother, only you can get it in the palace." Dou Lianyi looked at the man's expression while laughing, and saw that the sadness in Imperial Physician Xu's eyes flashed away, and the more afraid he was in his heart: "Imperial Physician Xu, you have to work." β
"Wechen retired."
The moment Imperial Physician Xu retreated, he quickly glanced at the woman next to him, thinking that he was extremely careful, but he had already fallen into the eyes of Dou Lianyi, who had been secretly observing.
"Xiuzhu, send Imperial Doctor Xu for me, I have a few words to say with Xia Guiren, you stay outside, don't let others in." Dou Lianyi sent Xiuzhu out, and watched them go out all the time, then he retracted his gaze, stared at Xia Ruotong and asked word by word, "Is it him?" β
"Yes."
Xia Ruotong bit her lip and admitted it.
