Nian Shilan watched Yinzhen go out of the side hall and then slowly lay back on the bed.
Su Peisheng saw that there were maids from Yonghe Palace waiting in the palace, and Songzhi was also waiting nearby, so he quietly retreated to the corridor outside the door, waiting to take orders at any time.
Wen Xianqing glanced at Songzhi. Songzhi understood and spoke to the maid in Yonghe Palace.
"Excuse me, sisters. We, Xiang Fujin, fainted today, and we are tired of you two waiting for us. Now Xiu Fujin has just woken up, and I am thinking that I should get some soup for Xiu Fujin. I wonder if I can use the palace kitchen?"
One of the palace ladies with a round face replied to Songzhi.
"Sister, you are so polite. Gonggong An has just given instructions to the slave girl. Xiang Fujin is weak and will not have time to have breakfast when he enters the palace in the morning. He has asked the small kitchen to stew bird's nest porridge, and the slave girl will go and bring it to Xi Fujin. "
After saying that, she hurried out. The other palace maid was clever and knew that this was Songzhi's excuse. She hurriedly excused herself to get another basin of water and left the side hall.
Nian Shilan sat up from the bed after listening to the maids from Yonghe Palace leaving.
Wen Xianqing was holding a prescription and bowed to Nian Shilan.
"What do you want Fujin to tell you?"
Nian Shilan looked outside the door and said in a low voice.
"Mr. Wen, I want to know, is there really a doctor in this world who can change a person's appearance?"
Wen Xianqing looked at Nian Shilan in surprise.
"Where did Xi Fujin hear this rumor? According to Wei Chen, who has been traveling among the people for many years, he actually knows a doctor. It's just that he has a weird temper. Although he doesn't live in the mountains like other enlightened people, he still can't walk easily. Yes. Why did Xiang Fujin suddenly ask about this?"
Nian Shilan looked at Wen Xianqing and said softly.
"To be honest, I'm looking for someone, a woman who is similar to the old friend in my memory. It's just that this woman imitates the old friend's appearance, but she can't imitate the old friend's appearance. I wonder if Mr. Wen can invite that person for me. He is a doctor, I miss that old friend so much, even if it is just a spiritual resemblance, I will have no regrets."
Wen Xianqing pondered for a long time and was about to speak when he heard the palace maid talking outside the palace.
"To report to Fu Jin, my servant has brought bird's nest porridge to nourish Fu Jin."
Nian Shilan winked at Wen Xianqing and signaled him not to say anything. She lay down again and Songzhi said.
"Please sister, please bring it in. My servant will serve Xi Fujin to eat the porridge."
The palace maid moved to the bed, handed the bird's nest porridge to Songzhi, and then stepped back.
Wen Xianqing said here.
"This bird's nest porridge is the best for replenishing qi and replenishing the body. Xiu Fujin can eat more of it every day. Wei Chen will go and look at the decoction first, and will wait for Xiu Fujin to take the medicine later."
"Then there is Dr. Lawen."
Nian Shilan had been helped by Songzhi to sit up, leaning on a soft gold pillow, and nodded to Wen Xianqing.
Ulanara had been sitting in Linxi Pavilion for a long time before he saw Concubine De coming.
After a while, Yinzhen came with his usual expression and sat in front of her.
Since Huang Taiji entered the country and established the Qing Dynasty, some old customs have been overturned.
In the past, when banquets were held, men and women would sit at separate tables. The seats for men and women were separated by a curtain. Even noble couples would not sit in different seats during major festivals.
But now, banquets in the palace do not differentiate between men and women, but are arranged only according to status.
The female relatives brought by royal relatives can be placed after their husbands.
Ulanara looked at Concubine De, who was under the emperor and the queen. She still had a smiling face to everyone. Ulanara thought in her heart, and she didn't know how Nian was doing.
The emperor saw that everyone had almost arrived, glanced around, and spoke with a smile.
"Today is the Qiqiao Festival, and I was invited here by the queen. Those here today are all my sons, daughter-in-law, and my ministers. It has not been so lively for a long time. I want to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival two months ago, and I am also here. I wanted to have some fun, but my fourth son was suffering from a serious illness. I was worried and had no intention of having a feast, so I passed by in a hurry. Today, my fourth son is also here, and my sons are all gathered here. I am very happy! "
As he spoke, the emperor picked up the wine glass.
Everyone hurriedly picked up their wine glasses and shouted.
"Long live the Emperor, long live the Emperor!"
Yinzhen waited for everyone to fall silent and drank the wine, then picked up his own glass and stood up.
"I would like to thank you, Your Majesty, for thinking of me. I would like to ask Your Majesty to pay my respects to you again."
After saying that, he raised his head and drank all the wine in his glass.
The emperor instantly smiled and turned to the queen.
"The fourth child is good."
The queen nodded in agreement.
The emperor raised his wine glass, waved it towards Yinzhen, and drank the wine.
The queen watched the emperor put down the wine glass, then turned to look at Yinzhen and said with a smile.
"Yin Zhen, today is a great celebration, but I heard that your side brother Fujin fainted and was unable to come to the banquet. I wonder if he is feeling better now? Have you asked the imperial doctor to take a look? I got up early to see the child. Come to say hello, you look very beautiful, I miss you very much."
Yinzhen saluted the queen.
"Thank you for your concern. Your Majesty, I have placed Nian in the side hall of Yonghe Palace. It is cool and comfortable there. The imperial doctor said that it is suitable for relieving the heat. Don't worry, Huang'e Niang, Nian is just weak and suffering from the heat." That’s all.”
"So that's the case, then I feel more at ease. That child seems to be a good person, so you should treat him well."
The queen smiled kindly.
The emperor looked at the queen suspiciously.
"Didn't the fourth family bring their wives to your palace to pay their respects just this morning? How could they have caught the heat?"
The queen was about to speak when Concubine De stood up.
"Reporting to the emperor, it was my concubine who got up early to talk to the fourth family and asked Nian to wait outside the concubine's palace for a while. Unexpectedly, the child was weak and couldn't bear the sun and fainted. I was busy. I asked the imperial doctor, who looked at it and said that the child had always been weak, but it seemed that by chance, an old illness had relapsed, mixed with a little bit of heat, and he fainted."
Yinzhen didn't speak, didn't even raise his head, he picked up the wine in front of him and drank it all.
The emperor looked at Yinzhen's face and then at Concubine De's demeanor, and he already made a decision in his heart.
Concubine De must have wanted to show off her mother-in-law, but she didn't expect that the woman from a general background was weak and fainted at the critical moment, which made the fourth child feel uncomfortable.
Forget it, the mother and son have not had much affection since they were young, and they have been separated from each other.
That's good, he should worry less, so as not to be like the old mother and her son, who has to worry more about the prince.
Thinking of the prince, the emperor looked at Yin Reng's position and saw that he was pouring himself a glass of wine with a careless look. The emperor couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
If Yinreng's mother, Hesheli, was still alive...
As a father, he doesn't have to worry so much.
Yinfeng was his legitimate son with Queen Hesheli. Although he was not the eldest son, because Queen Hesheli died young, he tried his best to cultivate this son and established him as the prince early. This was also the case since the Qing army entered the pass. The first prince to publicly establish a heirloom.
The emperor sighed softly in his heart. Over the years, his sons have gradually escaped from his control. Only the fourth son has always been obedient to his second brother Yinreng, the prince. It's in sight.
