Chapter 12 Encountering the Emperor in the Dongnuan Pavilion

The status of the medical lady is higher than that of the palace maid, and the place where she lives is slightly better than that of the palace maid, in Yingju Garden, Long Chuxia sleeps in a room with five palace maids, but here in the hospital, two medical girls sleep in one room. Although it is also part of the magnificent palace, it is much more elegant than the outside, and there are many fruit trees planted in the courtyard, and it is surprising that many tropical fruit trees can grow here.

The doctor girl who slept in the same room with Long Chuxia was called Doudou, a delicate-looking girl, seventeen or eighteen years old, with two dimples on her face when she smiled. She admired Long Chuxia very much, and kept asking her how she rescued Concubine Ying. Long Chuxia just smiled, said "She shouldn't die" and then rolled up the quilt and went to sleep.

It's not that she hates Doudou, it's just that she's not used to people being too enthusiastic about her, and she doesn't know how to react.

On the first day of the official start of construction, the task assigned to her by Imperial Physician Guo was to go to Ningshou Palace to ask the Queen Mother for a safe pulse.

Carrying a small medicine box, Doudou led the way and walked towards Ningshou Palace.

Late autumn is cold, especially early in the morning, the dew drops are condensed on the branches, and when you walk through, the clothes are hooked until the leaves will have cold dewdrops dripping on your hands, Doudou is wearing very little today, her cheeks are red, and she said vigorously: "It's cold today, I knew to wear more clothes." ”

Long Chuxia glanced back at her, and saw that she was wearing a cotton skirt and a short blue gown, her braids were beating on her chest, her hands were constantly rubbing, and there was a trace of white smoke coming out of her breath, she smiled, "Is it so cold?" ”

"Sister Long, of course it's cold, it's late autumn, and now that winter is about to open, look at Mr. Li, he is wearing a cotton coat and a short coat today." Doudou pointed to Manager Li, who was leading a few palace people in a hurry in front of him, and the palace people behind him were holding a few basins, probably to serve the emperor in a certain palace to get up, she smiled slightly, it seems that this emperor is also a fellow practitioner, immersed in the joy of the bed, and even the morning dynasty is not up. smiled like this, and then there was a trace of disdain in his heart, a good emperor who is diligent and loves the people should put state affairs first.

Thinking about it, he saw that Manager Li had already led people to the two of them, and Doudou took the lead in saluting: "I've seen Manager Li." Long Chuxia nodded slightly and did not salute.

Mr. Li didn't care, he observed her for several days after she was favored by the emperor before, and found that no matter what she did, she was light, there were no emotional ups and downs, and she didn't talk to people much, before in the palace of Concubine Ying, she faced the queen mother and the emperor, and she didn't see the slightest restraint or fear.

He smiled and said, "You guys, but go to ask the Queen Mother for peace?" ”

"Back to the manager, exactly!" Doudou replied.

Manager Li looked at the sky and said, "Now that the queen and the concubines are in Ningshou Palace, you can go over later, otherwise I am afraid that you will have to wait for half an hour." ”

Doudou said: "It's okay, Sister Long is the first time to come, I'll take her to familiarize herself with the place, so it will take about half an hour to stop and go." ”

Manager Li glanced at Long Chuxia thoughtfully, and suddenly said: "Since there is still time, it is better to go and ask for the emperor's pulse first, the emperor got up this morning, he had a splitting headache, and he was unwilling to ask the imperial doctor, so he only ordered someone to compress his forehead with hot water to relieve the pain." He will also meet with foreign envoys later, and if he is in a bad mood, he is afraid that there will be some excitement between his words, and it will not be good to cause misunderstanding. ”

Long Chuxia looked at Manager Li strangely, "Chief, the emperor is sick, he should ask the imperial doctor, Doudou and I are medical women, according to the regulations, we can't treat the emperor." ”

"When did our family say that it was a diagnosis and treatment? You are going to ask for a pulse, whether it is a doctor or a doctor, you can ask for a pulse for the emperor. Let's go, don't talk so much, while the emperor is not angry now, hurry up and take a look for the emperor! Manager Li urged.

Long Chuxia and Doudou glanced at each other, Doudou was a little scared, she hadn't seen the emperor yet, and she had only treated the palace maid and eunuch before, and she hadn't even tried to ask for the pulse of the concubine.

Long Chuxia didn't want to see Feng Xuan smile again, what should he say when he saw him? It's embarrassing to have nothing to say, it's even more embarrassing to have something to say, it's embarrassing to be horizontal and vertical, it's better not to go.

Seeing Long Chuxia's reluctant look, Manager Li knew the general idea in his heart, so he said: "There are some things that I care about, but others may not take them to heart, not to mention, can I escape for a while, can I escape for a lifetime?" ”

Long Chuxia was slightly stunned, and looked up at Manager Li with a clear look, yes, maybe Feng Xiaoxiao didn't remember the things in Huaye Pool for a long time, he has so many women, and there are countless palace maids who have been pampered, if everyone remembers, wouldn't his head have to hold a lot of things? It's because I'm too obsessed, thinking that people are the same as myself, she is the first time, and it is more unforgettable, and he is not the first time. These things are perfectly normal for him.

Thinking so, he said: "Okay, anyway, if you have time, the manager will lead the way!" ”

Manager Li smiled and said to the palace behind him: "Hurry up, go and freshen up for the Long Live Lord, the water is getting cold!" ”

"Yes!" Several palace people hurriedly walked away.

Manager Li took Long Chuxia and Doudou back to the original road, out of a plum forest, there is a majestic building towering in front of him, Doudou exclaimed: "After two years in the palace, it is the first time I have come to the imperial study!" ”

It turned out that this was the imperial study, and Long Chuxia thought it was the palace of which concubine, but didn't the emperor have his own palace? Why do you sleep in the study?

As if seeing her question, Mr. Li said: "Last night, the emperor reviewed the chapter, and he didn't rest until he was more than three, so he went to bed in the Dongnuan Pavilion." The imperial study is the main hall straight in, and the East Warm Pavilion is in the side of the imperial study, which is a special place for the emperor to rest! ”

"I see!" Long Chuxia remembered his previous comments on him, and couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

When he went to the Dongnuan Pavilion, the emperor had already finished dressing, sat on the Taishi chair in a bright yellow dragon robe, held his forehead with his right hand, and looked impatient, he raised his eyes and glanced at it, and said slightly: "Li Tong, what are you bringing them for?" ”

Manager Li hurriedly stepped forward and said softly: "Long live Lord, they are going to ask the Queen Mother for the pulse today, both of them are going for the first time, I am afraid that I don't understand the rules and make the Queen Mother unhappy, the slave thought, it is better to let them come to ask for the emperor's pulse first, teach them some rules, and let them ask for the pulse with confidence." ”

The emperor's brows softened, "It's hard for you to have such a heart, although the queen mother has been much kinder in recent years because of the Buddha's worship, but I really don't want these unruly people to collide with her old man." He stared at Long Chuxia and said in a solemn voice: "You, come here!" ”

Long Chuxia knew that the unruly person he said was referring to her, and she couldn't deny that she was indeed an unruly person. She stepped forward with the medicine box and blessed her body slightly: "Long Chu Xia to see the emperor!" ”

The emperor frowned, "How many years have you been in the palace?" ”

"It's been three years!" Long Chuxia replied.

"Bastard, I've been in the palace for three years, and I don't even understand the rules? Li Tong, you teach her how to bow to me! The Emperor snapped.

Li Tong was startled, and hurriedly walked to Long Chuxia's side and whispered: "Miss Long, when you see the emperor, you have to bow down, hurry, don't make the emperor angry!" But Doudou over there was already so frightened that he knelt on the ground, and said repeatedly: "See the emperor, the emperor is angry!" ”

Long Chuxia said lightly: "In my life, I only kneel to my parents and ancestors, and I will not kneel to anyone!" ”

Doudou was so frightened that he hurriedly pulled Long Chuxia's sleeve and said tremblingly: "Sister Long, kneel down!" She saw that Lalong did not move in early summer, so she hurriedly kowtowed and said: "Your Majesty, please calm your anger, Sister Long has not been in the palace for a long time, and she doesn't understand the rules, please Emperor Haihan!" ”

The emperor's face turned pale, "Then how many years have you been in the palace?" ”

Doudou didn't know why, and replied cautiously: "Back to the emperor, it's been two years!" ”

The emperor said angrily, "You have been in the palace for two years, she has been in the palace for three years, you say she doesn't understand the rules?" Long Chuxia, don't think that if you save Concubine Ying, I will be extra lenient with you, since you don't understand the rules, then go and learn the rules and then ask for the Queen Mother's pulse. ”
