Wang Xi raised his head and looked up. The palace was deep. Not to mention that they were standing on the ground now, even if they were standing on a high place, they could not finish the view at a glance.
The palace walls are so high that no one inside can get out.
He bowed his head and whispered: "Your Majesty, if it is really for your own good, it would be better to confess the matter about Mr. Cheng earlier."
Seeing Wei Yanzhou suffer too much, Wang Xi really felt like it was a waste of time.
Ever since he was young, his master never seemed to have the right time, place, and people.
Family background, favor, and love all happened at the wrong time, and when they were supposed to be perfect in the end, they interfered with the death of the Cheng family.
How could he not hate Xie Zhiyun?
If it weren't for Xie Zhiyun, he wouldn't have been unable to face Cheng Ning at this moment.
There is this thorn standing between His Majesty and Concubine Xi. I don’t know when this thorn will appear.
So what if Xie was dealt with? In the final analysis, Wei Yanzhou refused to let him go.
He owed Cheng Ning two lives.
I owe her a finger from Cheng Yi.
"Didn't you hear what the imperial doctor said?" Wei Yanzhou closed his eyes: "Even if I leave the child behind, I should still take care of her."
What had Cheng Ning done to him? Has she ever drank medicine so endlessly before?
Have you ever been so fragile and vulnerable?
None, but almost shattered in his hands.
Wang Xi also boldly advised today: "Perhaps your majesty's endurance is not as fragile as your majesty thinks, but if you hide it, the gap will become wider and wider, and your majesty will be even more unable to repair it in the future."
He sincerely thinks about Wei Yanzhou.
No matter what, it is not a trivial matter, Cheng Fengxu will be buried one day.
After all, that person was Cheng Ning's bloodline.
When he stopped at Liyue Palace, Ouyang Xi came out and hurriedly greeted him.
"Your Majesty, why are you free to come here today? Is Concubine Xi feeling better?"
In fact, one could tell at a glance that Wei Yanzhou's expression was strange, and Wang Xi was also more dignified than before.
Although he didn't hear clearly what the two were talking about, Ouyang Xi didn't dare to explore.
Ever since Cheng Ning experienced the miscarriage incident, everyone in the palace has become even more insecure and dare not go out for a walk on weekdays.
I'm afraid that if I don't get it right, I will be the next Mr. Xie.
Wei Yanzhou said: "Get up."
His voice was still dry when he spoke.
It was Wang Xi who answered for him: "Return to your Majesty, Concubine Xi has woken up, and the imperial doctor said there is nothing wrong with her."
"That's good, lucky people have their own destiny." Ouyang Xi patted his chest and breathed a sigh of relief: "It's not in vain that I have been fasting and chanting Buddha these past few days to pray for the safety of her and the emperor's heir."
No wonder there was a faint smell of incense candles coming from Liyue Palace.
Wei Yanzhou glanced inside.
"Your Majesty, would you like to come in and sit down?" Ouyang Xi stepped aside and said, "I like to make some vegetarian food recently, which is helpful to improve my health. Your Majesty has been watching Concubine Xi for many days, so I must be tired."
She has always been measured in her advances and retreats, and has room for speech.
You won’t feel let down if you don’t go, but you can really relax if you go.
Wei Yanzhou had a splitting headache, thought for a moment, and stepped in.
Yinyin was overjoyed and hurriedly went to make tea.
"Don't serve tea," Ouyang Xi stood in front of the imperial concubine's bed and ordered calmly: "Serve some white fungus dew, don't make it cold, just warm it."
Then he added: "The lotus cake from the small kitchen is also here, and I will take the hot cassia bag I made the day before yesterday."
Liyue Palace is busy with work.
Finally, the low table on the couch was filled with things. Wei Yanzhou wanted to say no, but he was indeed a little appetite aroused by the lotus cake.
After drinking less than half a bowl of Tremella dew, Wei Yanzhou had a rare good appetite.
Wang Xi has always been good at everything: "The concubine's craftsmanship is better. Your Majesty doesn't even take a bite of the food cooked in the imperial kitchen."
When Wei Yanzhou ate, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Otherwise, he would always give up after a few bites without taking a break, worrying him to death.
"Is Concubine Xi okay? How could I be so lucky to coax His Majesty to eat?" Ouyang Xi smiled quietly.
Wang was not happy but did not reply: "Concubine Xi is indeed awake."
"Yinyin, please remove the low table." Ouyang Xi approached the couch. She stretched out her bare hands to help Yanzhou and told him to lie down: "Your Majesty looks very tired. Can you sleep with me for a while?"
It wasn't that Wei Yanzhou didn't want to sleep, but that there were too many things pressing in his heart and he couldn't sleep peacefully.
Being supported by Ouyang Xi, it was not appropriate to throw him away, so he only said: "It's time for me to return to Qian Palace."
"If the political matter is not urgent, Your Majesty should rest for a while." Ouyang Xi said with a rare force, "I see Your Majesty always frowning, does it mean you have a headache?"
Saying this, without waiting for Wei Yanzhou to answer, he applied the warm cassia seed bag in his hand around Wei Yanzhou's eyes.
"This is to help you sleep. Since Your Majesty is here today, please give me a favor and let me do my best for our emperor in Jinyang, okay?"
The warm touch on the eyes really relaxes the whole body.
Wei Yanzhou's aching head also felt relieved for a while.
Cheng Ning was still asleep, so he had time to go back later.
So he said: "I will rest here for an hour at most."
"Your Majesty, what did you say, concubine? The entire palace and Jinyang belong to your majesty. I only hope that your majesty will be healthy."
Ouyang Xi said and sat on the edge of the couch.
She signaled to Yinyin, who quickly brought a small bottle over.
Ouyang Xi took some in the palm of his hand, rubbed it open, and covered Wei Yanzhou's forehead.
Her hands were not cold, but the sudden movement still made Wei Yanzhou subconsciously block it and hold her wrist.
"I just want to rub your Majesty's forehead. Maybe I can sleep more peacefully. Your Majesty, please forgive me."
He subconsciously refused to move, which still made Ouyang Xi slightly darken his eyes.
Perhaps Cheng Ning is the only one in the world who can make Wei Yanzhou defenseless.
Even a mere touch from the people around him can make him extremely defensive.
The indifference and decisiveness he showed when he killed people that day really struck a chord in people's hearts.
Ouyang Xi shuddered inexplicably when he thought about it now.
Wei Yanzhou felt the slight trembling on his wrist. He had something on his eyes, so he couldn't see Ouyang Xi's expression.
However, Ouyang Xi has never been distasteful. Maybe he just overreacted and scared her.
Letting go of his hand, he said, "I didn't mean to blame you."
Those sharp eyes were covered, and the exposed half of Wei Yanzhou's face, including his tight jaw, became softer because his eyes were covered.
Ouyang Xi took a quick glance, lowered his eyes, and covered his hands again.
There was no Dankou on the fingertips, and the plain fingers rubbed Wei Yanzhou's forehead, carrying the faint scent of herbs on his hands.
It felt inexplicably comfortable.
Wang Xi went to get it and covered it with Wei Yanzhou, then stepped aside.
The room was very quiet, Ouyang Xi didn't say anything anymore, and the sound of the massage was inaudible.
Wei Yanzhou gradually fell asleep.
But within an hour, he woke up on his own.
It seemed like he was dreaming. When he woke up, he suddenly pinched the base of the mountain.
Ouyang Xi helped him put on his shoes while looking up at him.
"Your Majesty shouldn't be depressed when Concubine Xi wakes up. I dare you to guess, did something happen to the Cheng family?"
