After the Queen Mother finished speaking, she glanced at the emperor who was still lying motionless and asked, "How long will it take for the emperor to wake up?"
Lu Jingsi replied, "Reporting to the Queen Mother and Empress, the Emperor has been working hard for many days and his body is already tired. The high fever has subsided at this time. It is a good thing to sleep more, which will be more conducive to the recovery of the Holy Body."
"Based on Wei Chen's experience, it will take an hour for the Emperor to wake up."
An hour is easy to say, but waiting aside is not that comfortable.
The Queen said, "Empress, since the Emperor will not wake up for a while, I can just stay here. You have been busy so early in the morning, so go back and rest first."
The Queen Mother said, "That's fine, I'll leave this place to the Queen. The Ai family will go back to Shoukang Palace first, so that they can pray for the Emperor in front of the Buddha."
"I heard that the emperor didn't eat last night. He will definitely be hungry when he wakes up soon, so I asked someone to prepare some porridge first."
The queen said, "Yes, I understand. I will send you to the emperor."
After the Empress Dowager left, the atmosphere in Yangxin Hall became much more comfortable.
Lu Jingsi breathed a sigh of relief, his whole body was sore and weak. If the Queen hadn't been there, he would have been lying on the ground with no image left.
The queen said gently, "Okay, Eunuch Su, Doctor Lu, please get up quickly. Kneel on the ground, how should you serve the emperor."
"I would like to thank you, the Queen."
After the queen finished speaking, she sat on the stool beside the bed and touched Big Fat Orange's forehead with a worried look.
After Su Peisheng got up, he saw that Dr. Lu was still kneeling on the ground, his legs too weak to get up. Seeing that the queen didn't pay attention to them, she quickly gave Xiao Xiazi a look and helped Dr. Lu up.
Doctor Lu did not dare to speak for fear of alarming the queen, so he only bowed his hands to Su Peisheng and Xiao Xiazi to express his gratitude.
Not long after the Queen Mother went out, the concubines who received the news hurried over.
However, the queen asked Su Peisheng to arrange for people to go to the flower hall next to him on the grounds that the emperor was still awake and might disturb the emperor.
Looking at the colorful group of people inside, the Queen actually felt as if she was in another world.
It was the first time in several months that the concubines had gathered together like this since he stopped paying respects due to illness.
Now it seems that these people are so familiar and yet so strange.
The concubines also saw the queen. Speaking of which, since the queen fell ill, including the New Year's Eve palace banquet, this was the second time they saw the queen in person.
Different from the fancy dress on the New Year's Eve Palace Banquet, the Queen looked much simpler today than usual.
The huge hairpin that she usually wore on her head was gone, and she only wore an ordinary bun, decorated with velvet flowers and a flying phoenix holding beads in her arms.
The Dadong bead gourd earrings on her ears were also replaced with a pair of white jade earrings. Wearing a plain flag suit with a light brown gauze cover. The Buddhist beads held in his hand are engraved with six-character mottos, and his whole temperament is like that of a layman who is practicing meditation at home.
"I, my concubine, see you, the Queen. May the Queen be blessed with peace and prosperity."
"Sisters, please get up."
"Thank you, Queen."
Of course, the queen saw the surprise in their eyes. The queen mother didn't find it strange because she had already worn this outfit before and went to Shoukang Palace to pay her respects.
He also expressed that after being ill, he had freed himself from his obsession. I will never do anything like killing concubines or harming the emperor's heirs again in the future.
But the Queen Mother obviously didn't believe what she said and thought she said it deliberately to deceive her.
The Queen sat on the top of the table, holding the Buddhist beads in her hand without stopping for a moment.
"Since you are here, you must all know the news that the emperor is ill."
"The imperial physician has already examined and treated the emperor. He said that the emperor suffered from the cold due to the invasion of external evils because he had been busy with government affairs for the past few days."
"After taking the medicine just now, the fever has gone away. I just need to have a good rest and don't work too hard during the recovery period."
Concubine Hua frowned, external evil invaded, she suffered from wind and cold, and developed high fever? Why don't you just burn him to death?
Although he said it was a pity in his heart, his face was still very worried, "In this case, we have to arrange for concubines to attend the illness, and someone must be guarding her day and night."
"It's a good idea to remind the emperor at all times not to work too hard. No matter how busy you are with government affairs, you can't get enough."
Waiting for illness?
Sun Miaoqing felt that her head was so big. Why did she become a concubine and have to work all night?
【Don't do it! Hua Pangpang, if you like to serve patients, just make your own arrangements. Don't take me with you. My body is delicate and my flesh is expensive, and I can't bear such trouble! 】
[All-nighters or whatever, quit! retreat! retreat! 】
Concubine Hua hid the smile on her lips. Who would like to work hard to serve others.
She used to think that the fat cat was her husband, her lover. So she cares, is willing to work hard for him, and is happy with it.
She was too stupid at that time, but she is not stupid now...
Before the queen could speak, Concubine Li flattered him, "Concubine Hua is right. The emperor's illness makes me very anxious. We all take turns taking care of him, so we can feel at ease."
The Queen said, "The Queen Mother has already given instructions for the concubines to attend to their illnesses. All you need to do is follow the usual practice."
"Concubine Hua, please bring out the regulations later and let the concubine follow the arrangements."
Concubine Hua said, "Queen, don't worry. The emperor has asked me to take charge of the harem. These small things are also within my scope."
