The Queen Mother took the soup bowl, took a sip, and was full of praise: "It's really extraordinary, no wonder the emperor loves to drink it."

"Yes, I also like this soup very much, and it is specially stewed for the emperor's mother." Chu Wanxiang said, "The emperor likes this soup, which proves that the emperor's cooking skills are great."

The Queen Mother's cheeks were slightly red when she was praised.

"The emperor's mother is not only a good cook, but you have always taken care of the emperor for so many years."

The Queen Mother smiled and said, "The emperor is the grandson of the mourning family, and of course the mourning family is willing to take care of him."

Chu Wanxiang looked at the Queen Mother, very jealous in her heart, but on the surface, she showed a grateful look.

"Huang Eniang, there is one thing that the concubine doesn't understand."

"Say it." The Queen Mother said gently.

"You have always been by the emperor's side, how can you tolerate the emperor falling in love with other concubines?"

When the Queen Mother heard this, her face changed, and she said, "How can you talk about the emperor's affairs casually!"

"The concubine is guilty!"

"Well, the mourners don't want to talk about it. Didn't you say that the emperor was seriously injured?"

Chu Wanxiang saw that the Queen Mother's face had changed, and quickly changed her tone and said, "Huang Eniang, I want to say that I heard a rumor that you were deposed because Huang Ama did not listen to dissuasion."

The Queen Mother's face became even more ugly, and she said, "What nonsense are you talking about! You can talk nonsense?!"

"Huang Eniang, you don't have to be angry, the concubine just wants to confirm." Chu Wanxiang said.

"Huang Eniang is not such an indiscriminate person, the mourning family really has something, so she will be deposed. The emperor's illness cannot be delayed, you don't have to worry, when the emperor's injuries improve, the mourning family will find a way to eradicate his illness."

Chu Wanxiang's eyes lit up when she heard this, "The concubine is waiting for the emperor's mother to pull out the root of the emperor's illness."

"Relax, Queen." The Queen Mother comforted, "The mourning family grew up watching the emperor, and the mourning family knows what the emperor's temperament is. Don't worry, the Mourning family will do their best to help with the queen's affairs."

"Emperor Xie." Chu Wanxiang saluted.

"Alright, Queen, it's getting late, you should go back and rest." The Queen Mother urged.

"Yes, the concubine is retired."

Chu Wanxiang returned to Kunning Palace, happy in her heart, a smile on the corner of her mouth, and said to the little maid beside her, "Go, pass the meal, this palace is hungry, I want to eat something later."

The little maid answered and immediately ordered to go down.

"Yes, the slave knows."

"Serve the queen well, and report anything immediately."

"Yes, the slave knows."

The little maid stepped back and went to prepare dinner.

Chu Wanxiang lay on the bed and flipped through medical books.

"Your Highness, this is what you like to eat!" The head of the imperial dining room in the palace sent the dim sum to Chu Mohan, bowed down and said.

"Hmm! You can stand down!" Chu Mohan picked up the wine glass on the table, took a sip, and raised his chin slightly to the main pipe: "It's still early today, don't be busy, go find some fun and listen, you don't have to wait here."

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your grace. The slave retired......" The chief manager responded happily, bowed and retreated, and did not forget to throw a glance at Chu Wanxiang when he left, implying that he was favored.

Chu Wanxiang lowered her eyes, pretended not to see the hint of the manager, and ate quietly.

The rules in the palace are strict, and the emperor, concubine, queen mother and other noble masters can't eat too loudly on weekdays, otherwise it will cause criticism. Even if an ordinary palace person makes a noise during a meal, it is a taboo.

Chu Wanxiang finished lunch, put down her chopsticks, picked up the teacup and drank water to moisten her throat. As soon as I put down the teacup, I suddenly remembered something, looked up at the door, but saw the door curtain shake a few times, and out came a young girl, with a delicate and delicate figure. Chu Wanxiang recognized her as her newly acquired personal maid Lu Liu, and greeted with a smile, "Lu Liu, come and talk to this palace."

"No!" Lu Liu walked to Chu Wanxiang's side with lotus steps.

Chu Wanxiang took Lu Liu's hand and asked softly, "Why are you here?" Isn't my father in the palace?"

Lu Liu lowered his eyebrows and smiled, and replied, "Your Majesty is handling government affairs in Qianming Palace!"

"Oh, what did my father tell me to do?"

"Your Majesty has ordered, Niangniang can go wherever she wants, no need to report, Niangniang just be happy."

When Chu Wanxiang heard this, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, she patted the back of Lu Liu's hand a few times, and said softly, "That's good!"

"Slaves don't dare to be slaves."

"Midori Willow, this palace asks you something."

"Mother, please speak."

"What about Your Majesty's dragon body? Have you ever been ill?"

"This slave doesn't know, the slave only heard that His Majesty will take a dose of decoction every time, I don't know what is so wonderful about that decoction?"

"So, Your Majesty is really sick?" Chu Wanxiang frowned and groaned, and then a worried look appeared on her face.

"This slave doesn't know." Green Willow shook her head, "Your Majesty's dragon body is sick, and the concubine is very worried."

Chu Wanxiang held Lu Liu's hand tightly, and her tone became solemn: "Lu Liu, you are an old man who has served your majesty for many years, your majesty should know your husband's physical condition well, right?"

"This ......" Green Willow hesitated for a moment, gritted her teeth and said, "Niangniang forgive me, the slave does know Your Majesty's physical condition, but I don't know what disease Your Majesty is suffering from, and what are the specific symptoms?"

Chu Wanxiang sighed and said, "Your Majesty has not been to the court for three months, and there is chaos in the court. Yesterday, a minister in the court impeached His Majesty for his poor health, and it may be difficult to inherit the country's social ......

"Mother, be careful! Do not say these things nonsense in front of outsiders!" Green Willow said eagerly.

"Don't worry!" Chu Wanxiang smiled faintly, "This palace won't be stupid enough to spread this matter."

Lu Liu breathed a sigh of relief, and then comforted: "Since Niangniang is worried about Your Majesty's health, then take advantage of this beautiful day, Niangniang will go to visit Your Majesty. Maybe Your Majesty is waiting for the mother!"

"Hongu thinks so too!" Chu Wanxiang nodded yes, immediately stood up, and ordered left and right: "Prepare a sedan chair!"

Lu Liu helped Chu Wanxiang to walk out, and said, "Niangniang, be careful of the steps."

Walking outside the Fengyi Palace, I saw from a distance that the palace people were clustering around a brilliant soft sedan chair from the side door to enter the hall. In front of the sedan car hangs the eight-treasure red luan tent, embroidered with peony patterns. A group of palace people knelt in front of the soft sedan chair to greet Chu Mohan.

After Chu Mohan sat down, the palace people shouted in unison: "I wish Your Majesty a long life and a long life!"

Chu Mohan raised his hand: "Zhong Aiqing is flat!"

A group of palace people got up, hung their heads and stood by the sedan chair, flattering words overflowing.

"Brother Huang, sister-in-law is here."

Chu Mohan raised his eyes when he heard this, and sure enough, he saw Chu Wanxiang walking over with the green willows. "The queen is auspicious." He got up and greeted him, took Chu Wanxiang's hand, and said with a smile, "I asked the queen to come to Fengyi Hall for lunch, what concerns does the queen have?"

Chu Wanxiang shook her head lightly and said with a smile, "What worries do the concubines have." new

The two walked into the warm pavilion hand in hand, and sat down as the host.
