Luoyang Brocade Chapter 271: Protest?
According to the usual practice, when Wei Yan was treating Empress Xu, the female officials would avoid her.
The most Empress Xu can do is keep Ruilian by her side.
Although Qiu Shuang and others were secretly envious and jealous, they were helpless. At this time, they resigned in unison.
Empress Xu seemed to be in a very good mood today, and actually said with a smile: "The Imperial Physician Wei is asking for Ping'an pulse for me, and it won't take much time. You don't have to give in, just wait aside."
"Yes, slave, I obey."
Everyone agreed in unison, but they were secretly surprised in their hearts.
What happened to the Queen today? How could you let all of them stay?
Ling Jingshu was a little surprised at first.
After a while, she vaguely guessed Queen Xu's intention.
Wei Yan stepped forward and carefully asked about Queen Xu's recent physical condition, such as trivial matters such as three meals a day and bedtime. Then he diagnosed Queen Xu's pulse.
Although Wei Yan's attitude was only respectful and not intimate. But because he needed to be consulted and have his pulse checked, he was very close to Queen Xu. Queen Xu looked at the handsome young man so close and felt very happy.
Wei Yan, Wei Yan! So what if you are reluctant? When I give my order, you must come to me obediently to greet me.
As for Ling Jingshu, she could only stand there and watch helplessly!
Queen Xu glanced meaningfully at Ling Jingshu, with a smug smile flashing in her eyes.
No matter how high her status is, Queen Xu is still a woman. Demonstrations in front of "love rivals" are also inevitable.
Ling Jingshu caught sight of the complacency and pride in Queen Xu's eyes from the corner of her eye, and felt queasy and disgusted in her heart.
Shameless old woman!
Poor Wei Yan! I really don’t know how he has endured it all these years.
……
After diagnosing the pulse, Wei Yan quickly took a few steps away, cupped his hands and reported: "The queen is in good health and there is nothing wrong with her."
Empress Xu hummed slowly: "I have the Imperial Physician Lao Wei. By the way, how long will it take for the emperor's dragon body to recover?"
The emperor has long been drained of his body by women, and he often takes tiger and wolf medicine. Even if he meditates and cultivates, it only treats the symptoms but not the root cause. Where is the time to heal?
"According to Wei Chen, if the emperor rests for about a month, the dragon body will be fine." The truth cannot be told, Wei Yan opened his eyes and told lies that Queen Xu also knew well.
Empress Xu nodded and said with a smile: "It's been really hard for you to stay by the Emperor's side day and night these days. I will give you a big reward, and I will send someone to the Imperial Hospital later."
Wei Yan thanked him and resigned.
Empress Xu’s eyes flashed, and she was sure that Wei Yan would resign, and she said suddenly: "Jingshu, please send Dr. Wei to me for me!"
Both Wei Yan and Ling Jingshu's hearts jumped.
What does Queen Xu mean? Is it a deliberate temptation? Or do you have other intentions?
No matter what Empress Xu thought, since the oral order was given, Ling Jingshu could not refuse, stepped forward to accept the order, and sent Wei Yan out of the main hall.
Wei Yan has a slender figure, a tall and straight back, and is as graceful as a bamboo.
Ling Jingshu has a slim figure, a slender waist and a graceful appearance.
Even looking at the back, they are a pair that match each other extremely well.
Queen Xu stared at the backs of the two of them, the light in her eyes dimming.
……
Ling Jingshu did not look back, and could also detect Queen Xu's sharp and compelling gaze. The previous speculation became clearer and clearer. Queen Xu summoned her to the palace because of Wei Yan.
Queen Xu was extremely jealous and possessive. Even if he can't get Wei Yan, he won't allow other women to get close to Wei Yan, let alone Wei Yan to have a crush on any woman.
She was in Jiaofang Palace, and everything she said and did was under the gaze of Queen Xu. She also knew that Queen Xu had already ordered people to keep an eye on her every move.
For more than half a month, she has acted extremely cautiously, just to prevent Queen Xu from getting any clue!
Empress Xu deliberately asked her to give Wei Yan a ride. The sending was too far and inappropriate, and the sending too close only seemed guilty. Ling Jingshu thought about it for a while, escorted Wei Yan out of Jiaofang Hall, and then stopped: "Physician Wei, go slowly, I have errands to do, so I have to go back."
Wei Yan also stopped and turned around to say thanks: "Thank you for sending me this ride."
Ling Jingshu smiled slightly: "I also obeyed the Queen's order. Even if Imperial Physician Wei wants to thank me, I should also thank the Queen."
There are thousands of words to say, but I can’t put them into words.
This feeling of depression and helplessness is really uncomfortable.
When their eyes met, the turbulent emotions in Wei Yan's heart almost overflowed, but what he said were irrelevant words: "The Queen has given Princess Fumin a hand in marriage. I heard that she will be getting married in April." I left the capital and got married far away."
Ling Jingshu's heart trembled.
Wei Yan suddenly mentioned Princess Fumin, which was naturally not without purpose. This is a hint that Queen Xu is narrow-minded and cruel. This is true for a princess. What's more, her?
You must not be careless in Jiaofang Palace!
Ling Jingshu took a deep look at Wei Yan and said softly: "I will take care of myself, and I hope you will take more care of me!" After saying that, she bent down and bowed, then turned and returned to Jiaofang Hall.
Wei Yan did not hesitate and quickly turned around and left.
No one knows how much undisclosed passion is hidden under his calm and indifferent face.
……
Ling Jingshu quickly returned to the main hall to reply: "To the Queen, Imperial Physician Wei has left."
Queen Xu twitched the corners of her lips and hummed.
Next, several female officials reported what they had to do today as usual. No one dares to talk nonsense and speak concisely in a few words. Queen Xu didn't say much and mostly just nodded. If you are dissatisfied, you will frown. If Queen Xu scolded her with a straight face, it meant someone was going to be in trouble.
In more than half a month, Ling Jingshu has only seen Queen Xu lose her temper once.
A palace maid was careless while on duty ~IndoMTL.com~ and broke the tea bowl commonly used by Queen Xu. Empress Xu's expression changed at that time, and she ordered the palace maid to be dragged out to take action.
The palace ladies also have rules when it comes to getting slapped. Put a ball of cloth in your mouth, and no matter how hard or how hard you hit, you can't cry. Otherwise, the board will be doubled.
The poor palace maid was beaten thirty times and lay prone on the bed for several days. In the future, when he can get out of bed and move around, he will be sent down to do menial and heavy work, and he will no longer be qualified to serve as an errand around Queen Xu.
Accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger, so why not serve Empress Xu?
No wonder everyone in Jiaofang Palace was so nervous that they didn’t dare to make mistakes!
After reporting the matter, all the female officials had to perform their duties and go about their errands.
Ling Jingshu also resigned as usual.
Queen Xu surprisingly stayed with her: "Jingshu, please stay. I have something to ask you." Her tone was quite gentle and approachable.
Several other female officials cast envious glances. (To be continued.)
