"Young Master Chu! Chu Gongzi! Are you there! ”

Chu Huai, who had just moved into the courtyard and finished packing his bags, was about to lie down and rest when he heard someone knocking the knocker outside.

"It's coming, it's coming! Don't knock anymore! Chu Huai scratched his hair indiscriminately, walked out of the room, and opened the door to the inside, but saw Wen Muan, who was standing outside the door supporting the wall, and was already tired, "Queen Mother, why are you here in person, come in and talk about something." ”

"Master Chu, there's no time to rest, you can follow me into the palace, the emperor has an accident?"

"Your Majesty? What happened to him, Your Majesty? ”

"It's too late to explain, I'll talk to you as I go."

Wen Lan pulled up Chu Huai's sleeve, took him out, and walked briskly in the direction of the palace.

"Huh? Slow down, Queen Mother, watch out for the baby in your belly! Chu Huai stumbled for a while, and almost tripped over the ankle-high threshold, he kept looking back at the door that had been closed in time, and could only pray that the mandarin duck would see it when he passed by, and close the door, so as not to be robbed at home.

The batch of medicinal herbs drying in the yard is the best in the world!

"Queen Mother, what happened to make you come to me in such a hurry? Entering the palace is such a thing, why don't I just send someone here? ”

"How can I have time to find someone, just from the beginning, the emperor suddenly had a pain in his chest, and his whole face was so white in pain that he couldn't speak."

"Chest pain? How can the emperor have chest pain when he is so good? ”

"I don't know very well, but I always feel that the emperor will be like this as if it has something to do with me, as long as I am close to the emperor's side, he will hurt badly, and after I go away, the emperor will be like a nobody again. Really...... Young Master Chu, did you say that the six poisonous Gu that was on my body before was transferred to the emperor's body? ”

"Queen Mother, you are too worried, this is not a symptom of the Six Poisonous Gu."

Chu Huai thought to himself, isn't it the effect of the Seven Lives Gu?

"That'...... What would that be? After knowing that it was not the Six Poison Gu, Wen Mu breathed a sigh of relief, Xia Yuan was not infected by himself.

"This ...... Now just by saying that, I can't be sure, I still have to let me personally check the pulse of the emperor to know. ”

"So what are you waiting for, let's go quickly."

Originally, she was going to walk for half a day, but now she was reduced to half an hour by Wen Muan, Chu Huai was amazed at her foot strength, but she was always worried about whether the child in her belly would be unbearable.

Before he reached the palace, he could see the little eunuch in a hurry from a distance, patting his palms with the back of his hand from time to time, and he didn't know what he was reading.

"Hey, Queen Mother, you can count it back, but it's really a hurry to die of the little one, if you don't come back, the little one is worried about this, and can you stay on your neck at the good end." After seeing Wen Mu, the little eunuch hurried over and looked left and right at Wen Mu, for fear that she would make some mistakes.

"How is the emperor now?"

"It's really strange to say, since the queen mother walked out of the palace, the emperor quickly returned to normal, and there is no discomfort anymore. Now the emperor is still sitting in the imperial study to review the folds. ”

"Look, Master Chu, that's it, as soon as I leave the emperor's side, the emperor will be fine immediately."

"That's weird!" Chu Huai, who obviously knew the reason, still pretended to be curious, which made him really uncomfortable.

"Father-in-law Chen, you take Gongzi Chu in, I won't go." When she was still half a mile away from the imperial study, Wen Mu stopped and didn't continue to walk forward, she was worried that if she continued to move forward, she would let Xia Yuan experience that kind of pain again, "Young Master Chu, I'm waiting for your news in the dormitory. ”

"Won't you go and see it together, Queen Mother?" Chu Huai shouted to Wen Muan, who had already turned around.

Wen Mu shook his head with a hanging face, touched his stomach with his hand, and said softly: "Forget it, for the sake of safety, I won't go in." ”

……

For a long time, Xia Yuan didn't feel the pain coming from his chest anymore, he looked down at the auspicious dragon picture embroidered on his chest in the dragon robe, as if what had just happened was just a nightmare.

It wasn't until there was a knock on the door that he was even more sure of his thoughts—how could it be related to Ah Lan. It's just that the moment the door was opened, he was a little deflated, and he didn't see the person he wanted to see.

"Young Master Chu? How is it only you? What about Ann? ”

"The queen has gone back to the palace to rest."

"Rest? Ah, what's wrong with her? Is it because you are not feeling well again? ”

"The queen's body is fine, and the child doesn't look like anything unusual from the outside, but she's just worried that if she gets too close to you, your chest might hurt again."

"What stupid thing is she talking about? Isn't that all right? It's just because I haven't rested well, how can she be so fragile as she thinks? ”

"It's better not to take it lightly, why don't you let me take the pulse for you?"

"No, it's okay, there's no need for this." Xia Yuan sat back at the desk, looking at the dense words on the fold, he couldn't help but feel upset, "Gonggong Chen, go and call Ah Yan to me, tell her that I am fine, and let her come over to accompany me." ”

"Yes." The little eunuch didn't dare to look at Xia Yuan's expression, his head was almost lowered to the ground, and after hearing Xia Yuan's order, he walked out of the imperial study as if relieved.

Soon there were only two people left in the study, Xia Yuan and Chu Huai, staring, and the atmosphere became a little awkward for a while.

"I'm sorry, Master Chu, I called you into the palace in my busy schedule, it's all my fault, I made Ah Lan worry too much, and I can't stop it."

"It is not unreasonable for the queen mother to be so worried, her illness is just right, and you are the closest person to her, she will naturally worry about whether she will pass on the disease to you."

"She's worrying about the sky, don't you think I'm doing well now?" Xia Yuan's face had returned to blood, and his whole state looked the same as always.

"That's what I said, but just in case, let me take your pulse, right?"

"It's still not so much trouble." Xia Yuan waved his hand at Chu Huai, and looked at the song to himself, "It's not early today, so it's better for Master Chu to stay in the palace and have dinner together, it can be regarded as an apology for bringing you into the palace so abruptly." ”

"Then I might as well be respectful." Chu Huai lowered his head and saluted towards Xia Yuan.

Originally, he couldn't stand the oppressive atmosphere in the imperial study, so he was ready to go outside the house and wait, but when he thought of what was about to happen after the little eunuch called the queen mother, he was very concerned, so he gave up the idea of going out, and obediently found an inconspicuous little corner and sat down.

Fortunately, Xia Yuan didn't pay attention to him, just let him stay in the imperial study.
