Luoyang Brocade Chapter 333: Congratulations
Wei Yan didn't want to elaborate, but couldn't bear Ling Jingshu's questioning, so he could only whisper a few words.
After hearing this, Ling Jingshu felt slightly relieved. After thinking for a while, he said: "This strategy is also risky. I'd better not show up in front of the emperor in the next few days."
If you can’t see it, you will always miss it a little less.
Wei Yan was convinced.
After the two discussed the countermeasures in a low voice, Wei Yan was reluctant to leave and insisted on staying for a while longer.
No need to say anything, just sitting opposite each other, occasionally looking at each other, feeling happy in my heart.
Such a relationship, without the oath of eternal love, is not earth-shattering. It seems a little calmer and duller.
However, for Wei Yan, who is struggling to survive, and for Ling Jingshu, who has gone through vicissitudes of life and pain, such a pleasant temperature is just right. It's like a cup of warm tea in the palm of your hand.
The temperature warms the heart, but does not burn the hands.
"You have stayed long enough today, you should go." Ling Jingshu finally opened her mouth softly.
Wei Yan hummed and glanced at her reluctantly: "Okay, I'll leave now."
As for other things, he didn't give much instructions.
He knew that she was a smart, strong and brave woman. She will do her best to protect herself.
After opening the door, the two of them returned to their usual distant and polite manner.
"Thank you, Imperial Physician Wei, for coming to diagnose and treat me. Please go slowly, Imperial Physician Wei." Ling Jingshu smiled lightly and saluted.
Wei Yan smiled lightly and said, "You don't have to be polite, Ms. Ling. I can just go by myself. I won't bother you." After saying that, he cupped his hands and turned around to leave.
He is tall, with broad shoulders and long legs, and his back is particularly straight and good-looking.
Ling Jingshu couldn't help but take another look before she withdrew her gaze.
……
Five days later, the emperor's birthday arrived.
According to the emperor's wishes, there was no grand birthday banquet held in the palace. However, after all, it is the emperor's birthday, and the pomp and pomp should be indispensable. The civil and military officials each prepared congratulatory gifts, and the emperor rarely went to court to accept the congratulations from all officials.
In the evening, a palace banquet was held in the palace.
The concubines competed to dress up in a dazzling way. Some played the piano, some performed dances, and each showed their talents in order to win the emperor's favor.
The emperor was in a very good mood today. He drank a few glasses of wine. When he was slightly tipsy, he saw the concubines fawning over each other and enjoying the beauties' attentiveness. He felt even more comfortable and happy in his heart.
After the palace banquet, Eunuch Huang from the reception room came with a smile on his face.
After the incident involving Queen Xu, the emperor had some doubts about Eunuch Huang. However, the emperor did not want to get to the bottom of this scandal, so he passed it by vaguely.
In the past few months, Eunuch Huang, who knew he had escaped disaster, had been extremely cautious and low-key. Apart from asking the emperor as usual whether he had summoned his concubines, he rarely appeared in front of the emperor.
In recent days, the emperor has begun to visit the harem again, and Eunuch Huang has become busy again.
"I wonder which empress's brand your Majesty would like to turn over tonight?" Eunuch Huang personally held the green-headed card and asked diligently.
The emperor glanced at the green card.
In the past few years, there has been no large-scale talent show in the palace, and there have been no new beauties. The names on the green head cards are all familiar. Wei Jieyu, Wang Meiren, Zhang Zhaoyi... These are younger concubines, and there are names of concubines who are over forty years old. It is boring to think about them.
The emperor hesitated for a moment, and another beautiful, slightly smiling face flashed through his mind.
So young, so fresh, so lovable.
Eunuch Huang waited for a long time, but the emperor didn't even say a word. He quietly raised his head and saw the emperor's thoughtful face. He immediately guessed something and said with a tentative smile: "If the emperor has something else he likes, I will remove these green cards first."
The emperor said casually: "Let's put it aside for now!"
Eunuch Huang responded and put aside the neatly arranged green-headed cards.
Then, Eunuch Huang quietly walked up to the emperor and smiled flatteringly: "Today is the emperor's birthday. I don't have anything good to offer, so I prepared a bottle of Longhu Pills. This is because I invited a famous folk doctor. Made from the bones of tigers in the mountains and the blood of male deer, it has an excellent nourishing effect without harming the body. Just be careful, I hope the emperor doesn’t dislike it."
While talking, he took out a small brocade box from his arms.
……
After the brocade box was opened, there was a medicine bottle made of green jade inside. The medicine bottle is exquisite and small, translucent, with a faint red color inside.
The emperor used to take various nourishing and aphrodisiac medicines. The eunuchs and eunuchs around him collected such things and presented many of them. They didn't find it strange at all. He just smiled and asked: "How about this Dragon Tiger Pill?" Has anyone tried it? How effective is it?"
Eunuch Huang laughed in a low voice: "I have secretly found someone to try it, and it is stronger than the elixir the emperor took before."
"Oh?" The emperor suddenly became interested: "Bring it over."
Eunuch Huang responded and stepped forward happily holding the brocade box.
The emperor picked up the green jade bottle, played with it for a moment, and then opened the medicine bottle. I saw about thirty red pills in the bottle. Each grain is about the size of a bean and exudes a strange aroma.
Get close to the mouth of the bottle, take a sip, and the aroma will hit your nostrils. You will feel refreshed and have strength all over your body.
It is indeed a rare and good medicine!
The emperor's eyes lit up.
Eunuch Huang's voice rang again: "This kind of pill can not only strengthen the body but also strengthen the body. Just take one pill every day. There are more than thirty pills in this bottle. Take out a few first. The imperial doctors studied and archived it, and the leftover was just enough for the emperor to take for a month."
Even the medicines offered privately cannot be put into the emperor's mouth at will. At least three imperial doctors must confirm that the medicine is harmless before the emperor will take it. You have to keep some of it for future inspection at any time.
Eunuch Huang is so sensible and understands the rules~IndoMTL.com~The emperor became more and more satisfied: "It is rare that you are willing to accept it, so I will accept it. If this medicine is really as good as you say, I will definitely reward you heavily."
Eunuch Huang's face almost turned into a flower with a smile: "I thank the emperor first. By the way, I wonder which empress the emperor will call to sleep with you tonight? Otherwise, I will go and change some brands. How about letting the emperor choose?"
The emperor lost much interest at this time and waved his hand casually: "That's all, I will rest alone tonight."
After the imperial doctors have tested the medicine, it is not too late to enjoy it after taking it.
Eunuch Huang walked away with a smile and respectfully holding a plate of green cards.
After leaving the Zichen Palace, Eunuch Huang was shocked to find that his back was covered in cold sweat when the night wind blew.
He had already delivered this special "congratulatory gift" to the emperor as ordered by Imperial Physician Wei. With the ability of Imperial Physician Wei, there will never be any problem with this bottle of Longhu Pills.
The next thing to do is to wait patiently. (To be continued.)
