Chapter 13: The Princesses and the Husbands
The medical department of the Fire Phoenix King's Palace has prepared a lot of precious medicinal materials for the princess's recent production, and after the Holy Doctor Daochen arrived, the medical officers had been waiting for a long time. Yao Daochen looked at today's clinical records as usual, and also asked which medical officer's pulse was, and after asking in detail, he put his mind at ease, and told everyone to cheer up the spirit, the princess's delivery date has arrived, and there will be signs of childbirth.
On the sixth day of the seventh month of the 758th year of the Fire Phoenix Kingdom, early in the morning, after receiving the secret letter from Yan Xun, the great priest Yan Li already understood the original situation of the matter, so he entered the palace first. After the discussion of the Fengluan Palace, the high priest Yan Li waited for King Kang Yan Mo Yu under the cyan cloud ladder outside the hall, and gave a look and then passed the purple tung garden in the front courtyard of the palace.
Yan Moyu was not as shocked as he expected, but was silent.
"What do you think?" asked him.
"I believe it", Yan Moyu replied simply.
"How do you plan to do it"?
"Who knows"? Yan Moyu smiled reluctantly and looked at the purple tung flowers falling in front of him.
"I'll stay in the palace, you go back first, Princess Kang is about to give birth now."
"I'll go to Qixia Hall to see Wang Mei first."
"It's fine."
Qixia Hall is located in the north of the palace, hexagonal glazed tile roof, the flying luan dancing phoenix on the eaves is lifelike, there are four Yeming palace pillars on both sides, eight agarwood sandalwood doors are finely carved, and the purple gas comes from the east to the entrance of the white jade and the lotus shines. The two were led to the dormitory by the maidservant, and they saw that on the soft couch covered with soft silkworm ice, the royal daughter Yan Motong was half-lying down and resting sideways, her delicate little face was ruddy and translucent, a pair of Danfeng eyes were charming, and the cherry mouth was slightly upturned, as if she was smiling.
"I have seen Her Royal Highness."
"Yan Moyu has seen Her Royal Highness."
"Brother Wang, there are no outsiders here, you can call me Tong'er", Yan Motong smiled.
"Tong'er, how are you doing lately"?
"It's not good, Brother Wang, you only care about the princess in the mansion, and you don't come to see me", Yan Motong looked at him with envy.
"Brother Wang is worried about you in his heart, but..."
"Alright... It's just a joke, it's good for Brother Wang to accompany me to eat today, and the big sacrifice will also be with you."
"Hmm... Okay...", Yan Moyu thought for a moment, looking at Yan Motong's expectant eyes, he couldn't bear to refuse.
"Tong'er", hearing the voice, a man in a purple robe came in, with black hair like flowing water, fair and bright complexion, eyes flowing, people like warm jade, approaching Yan Motong and said: "You can't lie down all the time, move around more", and said that he was going to help Yan Motong up, this person is Wang Fuliancheng.
"I'm very tired today, and I'll come back after the court, and the other political affairs are thrown to Bai Qi."
"Don't worry, these political affairs can be handled easily since childhood", Liancheng narrowed his eyes.
"Hmm...", Yan Motong responded, feeling more and more tired.
"Tong'er, you can rest first, Brother Wang wants to walk around...".
"Your Royal Highness, you will retire first...".
"It's okay...", Yan Motong said that sleepiness hit, and he fell asleep deeply, and Liancheng on the side leaned in front of the couch and watched quietly.
Outside the Qixia Palace, the sun was shining, and the time had passed, and Yan Moyu was walking absentmindedly.
"Why, I can't let go of the princess in your house."
"Well..., I'm always a little flustered, and I have a faint feeling that it's not very good."
"Go back to the house, Your Royal Highness, I'll go and say it for you."
"No, I promised Tong'er, no, I have arranged it in the house, if there is something, someone will come to report."
"You... Okay", Yu Li shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Why don't you accompany me to the doctor's office."
"Hmm... Good".
The two walked through the square outside the Qixia Hall and turned into a winding road.
"King Kang, high priest, don't come unharmed", a deep and deep voice, a silver-gray brocade robe, and a handsome face, giving people an awe-inspiring and righteous feeling, this person is Wang Fu Baiqi.
Yan Moyu and Yan Li nodded in return, and the two still valued Wang Fu Baiqi very much.
"Qihou, I've worked hard for you", Yan Moyu said sincerely: "I am fortunate to have you to help take care of political affairs all these years, Wang Mei will definitely not be able to cope with it alone."
"It's all within your own responsibility, and you should do your best", Bai Qi replied neither humbly nor arrogantly.
"Hmm... If you have any hassle, be busy."
"King Nakang, high priest, take your leave first", Bai Qi said and walked away sideways.
"Let's go too," he reminded.
"Good...".
The palace doctor's office, Yan Moyu and Yan Li investigated the holy doctor and Daochen before they learned that this person was originally from the Wujimen Xuanyi faction, and had an affair with the former princess thirty years ago, and later named him the holy physician and left him in the witch doctor's mansion, so I believe that he will never murder the first princess, and when they saw him at this moment, the three of them entered the back hall of the doctor's office.
"Holy Doctor, how are you doing?" , Yan Moyu asked suddenly, breaking the embarrassment of the three of them.
"His Royal Highness King Xie Kang, the old minister is very good", Daochen replied bluntly, not caring about Yan Moyu's inquiring eyes.
There was another silence, Yan Moyu and Yan Li sat down nearby, and Daochen found a place to sit down after seeing the two of them sitting.
"His Royal Highness King Kang, the Great Priest...", the Taoist minister slowly spoke: "The two of you must already know a lot, if there is anything else you want to ask, just ask."
"Holy Doctor, then we are offended", Yu Li paused, and then asked, "How sure are you about the birth of the princess?"
"Lao Chen has made all the preparations, and he will be able to produce smoothly, but..."The Taoist thought for a moment, "It's just a high fever after the birth, and there is no effective way for the time being."
"So, isn't it after Sister Wang gives birth...", Yan Moyu clenched his fist with one hand, and a few finger bones sounded, and his face was a little excited.
"Exactly...", the Taoist minister gritted his teeth and replied: "The old minister is also a damned person, and he will do his best to protect the princess and daughter, if not, the old minister will apologize with death."
The three of them were silent, and the atmosphere in the room was unusually depressing.
"Master, the princess sent someone to summon His Royal Highness King Kang and the great priest for dinner", Yu Xun knocked on the door.
"Got it, His Royal Highness King Kang, the great sacrifice, but there is still something to ask the old minister"?
"The Holy Physician is fully prepared, let's go first", Yan Li got up, pulled Yan Moyu and left.
In the Qixia Palace, the three of them were eating, Yan Moyu kept putting vegetables into Yan Motong's bowl, and Yan Li was eating in a muffled voice, still thinking about the words of the Taoist minister, the five flavors were mixed, and he couldn't eat anything at all.
