"Madame doesn't have to be polite, please get up." The emperor stretched out his hand to help, but his eyes were quick, and before he could touch him, he took the first step to thank him and got up.

The emperor was slightly sneered, but quickly regained his natural expression. sat in front of the bookcase casually, and said with a smile: "It seems that I disturbed Madame's rest?" ”

"If the emperor has something to say, just give orders, why not bother?" Qingwan lowered her head slightly, separated from the emperor at a distance, and looked at herself, fortunately she didn't change her bedclothes, otherwise it would be even more embarrassing.

"What do I have to command?" The emperor was still smiling, "Your family entered the palace today, do you still feel happy?" ”

"The queen mother's grace, the courtiers are very grateful."

The emperor smiled: "On the night of the full moon, a good night is rare, and the family leaves at first glance." Madame is alone, I am afraid that you will be lonely, so I came to be a companion with Madame. ”

Qingwan's heart beat faster, she didn't dare to move, and said, "Thank you for the emperor's kindness." Because today is the night of the full moon reunion, the emperor should accompany the queen mother in Cining Palace, or spend it with your lord or little lord. Although the woman is alone, she has her own worries in her heart, and she is thousands of miles away, but she is in love. So I don't feel lonely. ”

The emperor's face was slightly stunned, and he showed displeasure for a moment: "You still can't forget Lu Yanyi." ”

"He is the husband of the courtiers, husband and wife are one, how can he forget?"

"Haven't you noticed my affection for you?" The emperor stood up suddenly, just opposite her, and the momentum was so overwhelming that Qingwan's breathing became difficult.

"Ever since I first met you, I've had a different feeling!" The Emperor became excited: "I also wondered whether it was gratitude to you or love for you, this question has been haunted by me for a long time, and I have not been able to get an answer. It wasn't until I heard that you were going to Qianzhou that I really realized that this was love! You are leaving, I feel like I have lost the most precious thing, and I have told myself countless times that you are married, and I must be sensible! But as you get closer to the date of Beijing, this emotion is getting stronger and stronger! I can't control myself, the pen doesn't listen to the instructions of the mind, I must make an order to keep you! ”

"The emperor is the honor of ten thousand times, he is a man of all kinds, don't say anything at will." Qingwan's heart was about to rise to her throat, and she tried her best to say in a calm tone: "The emperor probably drank a few more drinks tonight, right?" ”

"Nope! No! I haven't drunk a drop of wine today! What he said is the most sober! After you entered the palace, I thought that maybe after a while, I would get tired of getting along like I did with those concubines. However," the emperor's voice raised slightly: "I find that the more I face you day and night, the more difficult it is to control the feelings in my heart!" This feeling can only get stronger! You're not like any other woman! Tie my heart firmly! Will you promise me? As long as I can get a word from you, I promise you that I will never disappoint you in this life, and I can grant you the position of queen now! ”

Speaking of this, the emperor stepped forward in a few steps, squeezed Qingwan's shoulders tightly, and a pair of eyes seemed to be about to erupt fire.

Qingwan's arm was pinched and painful, as if she was being pinched by iron tongs, she tried her best to struggle, but she couldn't fight for half a point. She took a deep breath: "Your Majesty! You are in the world, and you must not be emotional! The courtiers have a word for you! ”

"What?" The strength in the emperor's hand was slightly loosened, and Qingwan took the opportunity to break free and retreated a few steps away from him.

"How much affection do you have for your courtiers?"

The emperor looked puzzled: "Do you need to say this?" Naturally, it is ten! ”

"What would you do if the courtiers should not?"

As if caught off guard, the emperor hesitated for a moment when he heard the words, and then said: "There is no love in life!" ”

"Push yourself and others, compare your heart with your heart, and the courtier's love for Yanyi is the same." Qingwan looked at the emperor's eyes without fear: "If there is no Yanyi, the courtiers will not survive!" If you want to force the people to stay, you must choose only one way to die! The body of the courtier's mustard, although it is not a pity to die, but what good is it for the emperor? If the emperor lets his courtiers live a way, he will go away from now on, incognito, and he will not see him in this life. Time passes, the common people are important, and the emperor will always gradually forget the courtiers, which is the best ending for both parties. ”

The emperor stared at her tightly and asked word by word, "What if I don't agree?" ”

"You are the king, and the power of life and death is yours. But the emperor is wise and martial, why bother to do these two things? Yanyi has always been loyal to you, if you insist on your own views and ask your heart at night, how can you be able to deal with Yanyi? ”

The sentences are aggressive and pierce the heart. The emperor seemed to be caught in a fierce inner struggle, and only said for a long time: "I just let you go back, Lu Yanyi will also hate me, and I will simply not do anything!" ”

"Your Majesty!" Qingwan hurriedly said: "If Yanyi hated you, you would not be so calm a long time ago!" He knew that the emperor was a generation of Ming monarchs, and he would not fall into the love of his children, and he was worried about your dragon body, so he acquiesced to the courtiers to enter the palace to treat your illness. You and Yanyi have been friends for many years, don't you even have this trust? ”

The emperor's expression changed greatly, as if he had been violently stimulated, and after a long time, he said slowly: "What you said is true?" ”

"A courtesy may swear to heaven that if there is half a falsehood, she will receive any punishment!"

"Could it really be that I was wrong? Wrong from start to finish? The Emperor muttered.

Qingwan didn't speak, quietly waiting for the emperor's next reaction.

The air in the room was stagnant, there was no sound at all, and the silence was suffocating.

It seemed that a long time had passed before the emperor uttered a few words: "Tomorrow I will listen to my will." ”

These ambiguous words made Qingwan's heart hang high again.

However, she had no chance to speak again, and the emperor had already strode out.

Looking at the back, Qingwan only felt as if all the strength in her body had been drained, and she fell softly on the couch, and only one face appeared in her mind: thousands of miles away, the person she was worried about all the time.

The next morning, for the first time, the emperor did not come to take the medicine. Qingwan prepared the pills as usual, and until noon, there was still no movement.

"This is the emperor's medicine today," Qingwan handed a brocade box to Shunzi: "You go and send it to the emperor, you can't stop taking it." ”

Junzi agreed, and was just about to leave, when suddenly an inner supervisor came to deliver the decree.

"By order, Mrs. Lu's medical skills are superb, her hands are rejuvenated, her healing is bowed, and her merits are outstanding, and she is now given a medicine pestle, and she is allowed to return to her hometown on a later date."

Qingwan's tears almost slipped down, but the emperor was still sober in the end.

"Mrs. Lu, the emperor said that in recent days, the state affairs have been busy, so I won't come to take the medicine, please Mrs. Lu give the rest of the medicine to the old slave to take back, and Mrs. doesn't have to go over to thank you, the emperor has no time to meet." The internal supervisor said.

Qingwan promised that she didn't want to see the emperor again, so avoiding each other was the best way to get along now.

She stood up, carefully wrapped the remaining pills, and handed them to the inner warden. He also took the pestle of the medicine that had been given to him.

This is the treasure of the palace hospital. It is carved with a piece of high-quality jadeite, at the beginning of the founding of the dynasty, the founding Taizu was sick, and the treatment was not effective, and then there was a master Langzhong in the people, and he resolutely unveiled the list, and within five days, Taizu's condition was cured. In order to reward, the jadeite from the Western Regions was specially selected, and the famous craftsman made a jadeite pestle as a reward. But the man refused to accept it, nor did he want any gold or silver treasures, and still drifted away. Since then, this jade pestle has become a treasure of this Chaotai Hospital. Although no one has really used it to make medicine, the rarity of its own jadeite, coupled with the skills of craftsmen, and its unusual significance, have become a holy object in the eyes of countless healers in this dynasty.

Qingwan was only in a chat, and occasionally talked to the emperor about the name of the jade pestle, but he didn't have a chance to see it. The Emperor just smiled. And so it passed.

I didn't expect to give her such a precious thing.

The heavy jade pestle, the tentacles are cool, warm and shiny. The emperor did not reward anything else, but rewarded this medicine pestle alone, and the significance of allowing her to return to her hometown to practice medicine is self-evident.

Now that she has received the order, Qingwan naturally doesn't want to stay longer for a moment, packing up her simple outfits, her heart is as anxious as a spark, and she can't wait to put on her wings and fly to Lu Yanyi's side immediately.

As soon as I put the clothes on, I suddenly remembered that I hadn't gone to thank the Queen Mother yet. I just cared about Zhang Luo going home, and I forgot about it.

After changing his clothes, he hurried to Cining Palace.

Today's Cining Palace has restored its ordinary tranquility. The palace maids and eunuchs were brisk and methodical, and the hall was quiet, and one or two people came out of the curtain from time to time.

Qingwan often comes, so the people in Cining Palace recognize her, and they hurriedly smiled: "Mrs. Lu, please wait a while, the Queen Mother was too tired yesterday, and she will get up later today, and she hasn't finished breakfast yet." ”

"Thank you, Auntie, it doesn't matter if I'm waiting here."

Before he finished speaking, he only heard the question inside: "Who's outside?" ”

It is the sound of a round fan.

"Sister round fan, it's Mrs. Lu who came to say hello to the Queen Mother."

At the sound of the curtain, the petite figure had already greeted him with a smile: "The Queen Mother was talking just now, but Mrs. Qiao came." Come on in! ”

Qingwan walked in with her, and saw that the Queen Mother was eating, although she was a little tired on her face, but she looked quite happy.

"Came here so early?" The Queen Mother's face showed joy, "Come, just accompany the palace to dine together." ”

Qingwan thanked her and said with a smile: "How dare this courtier?" ”

"There are no outsiders here, so there is no need to talk about so many rules and regulations," the Queen Mother said with a pleasant face: "It is always a meal alone, and it is not fragrant, and many people are more lively." ”

The little eunuch had already moved the stool and put it on the side of the queen mother, Qingwan didn't dare to disobey, so she had to sit down, and the palace maid had already brought a bowl of japonica porridge and put it in front of her.

"I heard that the emperor has issued an edict and allowed you to return to Qianzhou?" The Queen Mother stirred the almond tea in the bowl and said unhurriedly.
