In the evening, when Zhu Youzhu returned to Kunning Palace, Zhang Yue was wearing an emerald green loose underwear, holding a large plate of longan sitting on the threshold of the dormitory, eating longan while reading a book by the moonlight.

This longan is the Tianbao Baoyu Zun longan that Gu Li specially brought to Zhang Yue from Hami, take a bite, the mouth is full of sweetness, Zhang Yue loves to eat it very much. This will unknowingly eat most of the plate.

Zhu Youzhu looked at her, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, he walked up to her with a smile and bent down, "How can you read here?" What should I do if I catch a cold? ”

Hearing this, Zhang Yue put down the book, raised his head just to meet Zhu Youzhang's doting gaze, "It's not cold, it's not cold, wait for you to come back and eat together." ”

Zhu Youzhu suddenly felt warm in his heart, "Although the Tianbao Jade Zun longan that Gu Li gave you is unusually sweet, it is the most easy to get angry, so it is better to eat it in moderation." ”

Zhang Yue said reluctantly, "But it's really delicious, I'm thinking about it, if this longan is paired with the dried golden osmanthus you gave me before, I can make golden osmanthus longan wine." When the brew is ready, you will know that it is very sweet! As she spoke, she stuffed another grilled longan meat into her mouth.

Zhu Youzhu looked at Zhang Yue's red lips with a slight opening of the dragon's eye, and his heart moved, "It's good to taste it." ”

As soon as the words fell, Zhang Yue felt that his eyes were dark, and two pieces of warm softness covered his lips, and he sucked the longan meat he had just stuffed in, and then the two pieces of softness left his lips.

Zhang Yue blushed and stroked her lips, and looked at Zhu Youzhu in front of her in surprise, who was pale and was slowly tasting the longan meat, "You... I..."

Zhu Youzhu swallowed the dragon eye in his mouth, shook his head lightly and said with a serious face, "It's too sweet." With that, he got up and went into the dormitory.

Zhang Yue reacted at this time, and hurriedly picked up the dragon's eye and the book and followed up in the hall.

The silvery moonlight in the night sky is particularly sultry.

The imperial study of the Qianqing Palace

“...... North China, Shandong and other places have been hit by drought this year, and the grain harvest is very small, and local officials have opened warehouses for disaster relief in accordance with the usual practice..."

Li Dongyang, who had just joined the cabinet, was talking endlessly, and Zhu Youzhu was sitting behind the dragon case, his deep eyes scanning the cabinet ministers standing under the case.

Beside him stood the eunuch Huai'en on the left, and Xiao Jing, the chief eunuch of the Qianqing Palace, stood on the right.

“... The minister asked His Majesty for approval, in addition to disaster relief, it is also necessary to save various expenses of the DPRK and China. ”

Zhu Youjiao's eyes were dim, "How to save?" ”

"The minister believes that the procurement should be stopped first, and redundant officials should be eliminated second."

Zhu Youzhu pondered for a moment, "Quasi-play, I will add one, this year's harem will be halved, and this matter will be handled by Xiao Jing." Wynne, let's do it. ”

Huai En, Li Dongyang, and Xiao Jing responded in unison. Subsequently, the cabinet ministers and ministers of the Ministry of Shangshu Wang Shu continued to report.

At this time, a little eunuch quietly walked in, came to Xiao Jing's ear, and whispered to him for a while.

After Xiao Jing listened, his eyes rolled, and he waved his hand to let the little eunuch retreat, Xiao Jing hesitated for a while, came to the emperor's side, and lowered his voice to report to the emperor.

After Zhu Youzhu heard this, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes very quickly, and then disappeared, and a cold voice came from behind the dragon case,

"That's all for today. Wang Aiqing's recital is left, and I will review it later. Stand down. ”

After speaking, he hurriedly walked out of the imperial study, and Xiao Jing followed closely behind.

The ministers were stunned with inexplicable expressions. Shoufu Liu Ji stroked his beard and walked to Huai En, who had a gloomy face, and asked tentatively, "Lord Huai, why is the emperor in such a hurry today?" ”

The corners of Huai'en's mouth pursed, although Xiao Jing's voice was small just now, he heard it clearly, "The queen's mother has fire sores on her tongue, but she refuses to take medicine..."

He took a deep breath and snorted from his nose for a long time, "Humph! The emperor's affairs, how can we talk about it in private? Then he brushed his sleeves and left.

Liu Ji on the side pouted in a choked manner, and walked out with a gloomy look.

Li Dongyang looked at Huai'en's back, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he thought about it.

Inside the Kunning Palace

"Niangniang, you just listen to the words of the imperial doctor and take medicine!" Xiaotong was holding a medicine bowl and talking bitterly around Zhang Yue, who was moaning on the bed. Rushui and several other palace people next to him also tried to persuade each other.

After eating several plates of longan in a row, Zhang Yue's mouth really had fire sores, and her throat hurt, so she had to stop eating longan.

After the imperial doctor came to see it, he prescribed the anti-gunpowder for internal use and the swelling medicine for external application. The medicine taken internally was drunk, and the medicine applied externally, Zhang Yue wiped it a little, and it hurt noisily, saying that he would not be allowed to take the medicine anymore, and lay on the bed and moaned.

Zhang Yue thought to herself, the external plaster applied to the fire sores was spicy and painful, and there was a strong fishy smell, so she didn't want to apply it.

She lay on the bed, with her back to Xiaotong and the others, no matter how they persuaded her, she did not respond. Suddenly, the irritable voices of Xiaotong and the others stopped.

She gloated and said, "I'm tired... that you may say..."

Before she finished her words, her body was suddenly scooped up, and then, she was involved in a warm and strong embrace.

She subconsciously struggled a few times, turned her head in surprise, but crashed straight into a pitch-black eye, her dense eyes were close at hand, and there was a faint trace of worry in her eyes.

Zhang Yue whispered with some embarrassment, "Your Majesty..."

Zhu Youzhu said softly, "I heard that you have fire sores in your mouth? What do you think? Does it still hurt? ”

Zhang Yue hurriedly shook his head, "It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt." Eh..."

It turned out that she was in a hurry, and her tongue touched the fire sores in her mouth, and she cried out in pain.

Zhu Youzhang's eyes flashed with a hint of distress, "I still said it doesn't hurt." Here, hurry up and get the medicine! ”

Zhang Yue buried his head in Zhu Youzhang's arms, "I don't want to take it, this medicine is so scorching, and there is a fishy smell." ”

Zhu Youzhu patted Zhang Yue's back, "How can you do it if you don't go up?" Be obedient, obedient, I will give it to you, and it won't hurt. ”

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to take the medicine bowl in Xiaotong's hand, handed it to his nose, and sniffed it. Suddenly, his face flashed with an abnormality, and then he returned to normal.

Xiao Jing next to him also smelled the smell of medicine, and was about to say something, but Zhu Youzhu glanced at him lightly, and he immediately stopped speaking.

"Come, don't move, I'll give you medicine."

Zhang Yue had no choice but to raise his head slightly, reluctantly opened his mouth, Zhu Youzhu scooped some ointment with a small spoon, and carefully and patiently applied it to the fire sores, Zhang Yue's aching forehead was sweating. After applying, Zhu Youzhu took out a handkerchief from his arms, gently wiped off the sweat for Zhang Yue, and handed the medicine bowl to Xiaotong.

He just got out of bed and walked quickly to the outside of the hall, Xiao Jing followed out with a rather anxious face, and there was a violent coughing sound outside the hall for a while, for a while, and it didn't stop, Zhang Yue felt strange, got up, and walked outside the hall, only to see Zhu Youzhu's face pale, holding his chest, and coughing violently.

Zhang Yue hurriedly stepped forward to help him caress his chest and back, and asked Xiao Jing, "What's wrong with the emperor?" Sick? Hurry up and declare the Imperial Doctor, cough like this. ”

Xiao Jing said, "Niangniang, the emperor is not sick. ”

"So what's going on?"

Zhu Youzhu coughed and waved his hand, not letting Xiao Jing say, Zhang Yue was even more anxious when he saw this, "Xiao Jing, say it quickly!" What happened to the emperor? ”

Xiao Jing blurted out, "Niangniang, your ointment contains licorice, the emperor has been allergic to licorice since he was a child, and when he smells the smell of licorice, he will cough non-stop, and he will heal after coughing for a while." ”

Zhang Yue then remembered that when Zhu Youzhu gave her the medicine just now, her face was deep and she seemed to be holding back something, but it turned out that she was holding back a cough. He must have been afraid of coughing up and startling himself with medicine.

Zhang Yue suddenly felt a burst of emotion and remorse in his heart, and held Zhu Youzhang's arm, "Your Majesty, I caused you to be allergic, don't worry, I will be obedient to take medicine in the future." ”

Zhu Youzhu miraculously stopped coughing at this time, drank a few sips of the hot tea brought by Xiao Jing, and after relieving himself, he said gently, "Yue'er, it has nothing to do with you. As long as you get better as soon as possible, what is this cough? I can overcome it when I give you medicine. ”

"Come back! Your Majesty, don't give me medicine, Xiaotong can give me medicine. ”

Zhu Youjiao's eyes flashed slightly, "That medicine is both burning and fishy?" ”

"Good medicine is good for disease. Rest assured, I will stick to the medicine. Zhang Yue patted his chest on the side and assured.

Zhu Youzhu looked at Zhang Yue with a look of sincere fear, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
