Don't help me, I can sit up by myself

Generally, when vomiting occurs, the first thing that comes to mind is eating something unclean.

Recently, the Empress has been ordering meals at Yongfu Hall.

Is it related to the food at Yongfu Hall?

But the food at Yongfu Palace was cooked under her own supervision, so there is nothing wrong with it.

There was no clue, only the oncoming wind and snow, which was very cold, fell into the eyes, and quickly melted, and the hand holding the food box gradually lost consciousness.

Cining Palace.

When the Queen Mother heard about the Queen's vomiting, she was so anxious that she put on her clothes and sat up.

Aunt Guan came forward with the candlestick, straightened the quilt for the Queen Mother, and comforted her thoughtfully: "The imperial doctor is already feeling her pulse, and the Emperor has already gone. The Queen Mother is usually in good health, so there is no need for the Queen Mother to worry too much. Take good care of her." It’s important to yourself.”

"The food in the Queen's Palace has always been exquisite, so why did she suddenly vomit?" The Queen Mother was still worried.

"I heard that the Queen often asks palace officials to go to Yongfu Palace to buy food recently."

"The Ai family also knows this, but the Ai family also saw Du Chang's meal over there. The Ai family saw that it was okay. I guess it's not that Du Chang's meal was inappropriate."

The lantern flower jumped.

The Queen Mother was leaning on the bed, with sparks dancing in her eyes: "Is it possible that the Queen is pregnant?"

The queen has been in the palace for several years. In the first few years, she was not favored and it was reasonable for her to be infertile.

Recently, the emperor is also willing to see the queen. It is possible that the queen is pregnant.

If the queen is pregnant, she will be the legitimate son of the middle palace and will most likely be established as the crown prince of the Chen Kingdom. Then the status of the Wei family will be even more unshakable, and the Queen Mother should be able to feel at ease as she worries about the future and fate of the Wei family day and night.

Aunt Guan was obviously stunned. She did not expect this level: "What the Queen Mother said is absolutely true. If the Queen Mother is pregnant, it will be a great joy. I will ask people to inquire again."

"It's getting late, so there's no need to make such a big fuss. Let's go see her again at dawn. If she is really pregnant, then the queen will be a great contributor to the Wei family. She will have to pay attention to the food and clothing expenses in the future, and those who serve her will also They have to be called to Cining Palace, and the Ai family has to explain everything one by one. After all, it is the emperor's first child, and it is of great significance. It seems that the Queen's Yinchixiang sent by the Ai family is useful to light. This incense can help with pregnancy, I think. it is true."

"If the Queen Mother is pregnant, then the Queen Mother will become a grandmother."

"Yes, I have been a widow in the harem for many years. If I become a grandmother, I won't be lonely anymore." The queen mother smiled, and the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes became denser.

In Jingren Palace.

The eunuchs and maids were busy preparing hot water towels. The queen was lying on the couch in dark red clothes. She vomited several times and almost exhausted all the strength of the queen's body. She was sweating profusely and almost lost the strength to open her eyes.

Wei Zhaoning stood by her side with a warm towel, wiping the sweat from the queen's face from time to time.

"Has the longan really gone?" the queen asked.

"Yes, it's time to come back now."

"My health is a trivial matter. I can just close the door of Jingren Palace and take care of it myself. Why bother asking the Emperor to come late at night? Your Majesty is very busy."

"My sister is in the middle palace position. If my sister is sick, the emperor should be informed."

"Don't do this next time and just call the imperial doctor to take a look."

The emperor happened to arrive at Jingren Palace, and when he heard the queen say this through the door, he felt a little moved in his heart. The queen is not coquettish, and she never strives for favor.

While speaking, the queen vomited again. Because I had vomited too many times, I gradually couldn't vomit anything and just lay weakly.

Seeing the emperor's arrival, the queen closed her eyes and tried to open them again: "Your Majesty, you are here."

"Lie down and let the doctor take a closer look at you."

The imperial doctor quickly came forward with a medicine box, checked the queen's pulse through the curtain, and then quietly retreated to the side hall to prescribe a prescription.

"What's wrong with the Empress? Did she eat something unclean?" Wei Zhaoning chased her out and asked worriedly: "Before vomiting, the Empress ate the jujube paste cake sent by Du Changzai of Yongfu Palace. Since then, He kept vomiting."

The emperor frowned, but said nothing.

"Is it because you feel uncomfortable after eating jujube cake? How is your pulse? Vomiting like this is not an option."

The imperial doctor knelt down and said: "But it doesn't seem like she felt uncomfortable after eating jujube cake. In my opinion, the Queen Empress smelled something she shouldn't have. I remember that a few years ago, the Queen Empress lit Yinchi Incense in the palace. At that time, the empress vomited, and it took two days to heal. If I am right, what is being ordered in Jingren Palace now is Yinchi Incense. Although this incense is good, the empress cannot smell the smell, so I recommend it. See you, it’s better to change it.”

No wonder I smelled a sweet yet fishy smell as soon as I entered Jingren Palace.

Yinchixiang was originally a tribute spice from the frontier. I heard it has the effect of assisting pregnancy.

The Queen Mother specially rewarded some to the Queen. The Queen was willing to listen to the Queen Mother's words. Although she was not used to the smell, she endured it.

Seeing that the Yinchi Incense was about to be withdrawn, Wei Guiren hurriedly knelt down and said, "I heard that His Royal Highness the King of Yue brought this incense back from the frontier fortress. It is more expensive than gold. One is to help sleep, and the other is to induce pregnancy. It is excellent for women. , Your Majesty, can the emperor ask my sister to endure it, maybe because she is pregnant? Isn’t that a good thing? "

The emperor closed his eyes.

Xindao, this nobleman of Wei, is usually very smart and speaks in a measured manner. Could it be that the Yinchixiang incense has made her stupid? The Queen is pregnant and she has to rely on him as a man. What does Yinchixiang have to do with this? What is the price comparison? Gold, the queen couldn't get up from bed after smelling this fragrance. Is this still a fragrance that induces pregnancy?
After all, Guiren Wei is also the queen's biological sister.

"Take away the incense," the emperor confessed.

Gao Rang flicked the whisk, and seven or eight palace maids and eunuchs carried the incense burner away, replaced it with a light agarwood incense, and then swept the hall to wipe away the aftertaste of the original incense.

The faint sweetness of agarwood spreads in Jingren Palace.

Guiyuan changed the queen's clean clothes and replaced the sweat-soaked pillow.

After taking the tranquilizing pills given by the imperial doctor, the queen took a deep breath and suddenly felt that her chest was not so heavy and she no longer felt like vomiting.

It had been half an hour since the emperor came out of Jingren Palace.

It snowed heavily this night.

Looking up, the boundless night is so deep and dark that not even a star can be seen. The late night is like a net, covering the entire palace underneath. The snow is falling all the time, spreading everywhere. Go, except for the lonely night sky, there is deep and shallow snow.

The palaces are layered upon layers, hidden in the snow.

The emperor's robe was wet, snowflakes fell in his hair, and soon turned into snow and flowed into his neck.

His stern brows became even sterner, his long robe was dragging in the snow, his shadow was cast on the snow under the palace lantern, and his steps were so fast that Gao Rang could hardly catch up.

"Your Majesty, why don't you call me a sedan chariot? The snow is too deep."

"No need."

After passing the Chuihua Gate, they passed through a corner gate, and the two of them stepped onto the corridor heading north.

Gao Rang looked back at the way he came. It was already dark and invisible. The road ahead was long. It was in the direction of Yongfu Palace, which was opposite to Taihe Palace.

Gao Rang trotted behind the emperor: "Your Majesty...where are you going? Aren't you going back to the Taihe Palace? The night is already deep, and it's time for the Emperor to rest."

The emperor walked very quickly, leaving only Gao Rang's tall and lonely figure behind.

"Your Majesty..." Gao Rang could only raise the octagonal palace lantern in his hand higher, and then higher.

On the snow ahead, there is a line of deep and shallow footprints. Judging from the size, they should be those of a woman.

The emperor looked at the deep and shallow footprints and quickened his pace.

Chase him all the way to the entrance of Yongfu Hall.

The red door of Yongfu Hall was closed tightly. The palace maid Papaya was waiting on the steps with her hands curled up and holding a lamp, looking around.

Du Jiyan's skirt was half wet, and her eyelashes were covered with wind and snow.

"Master is back." Papaya wanted to step forward to greet him.

"Cough cough cough" came the sound of a man coughing. The emperor was a few feet away from Du Jiyan. He slowed down his steps, straightened his waist, and walked in front of Du Jiyan with his hands tied as if he were looking at the scenery.

Du Jiyan was startled by the sudden appearance of the emperor. Papaya quickly opened the palace door, thinking of inviting his masters in.

The emperor made no sign of entering, but stopped outside the door.

Gao Rang was so smart that he stepped forward and dismissed the papaya: "You can go back to sleep. The emperor has something to ask Du Changzai."

Papaya returned to Yongfu Hall in confusion, and Gao Rang also waited from a distance.

The emperor and Du Jiyan were the only ones left outside the palace.

The emperor was about to open his mouth to speak, only to realize that Han Ye was walking quickly and his lips were already trembling with cold, making it difficult for him to speak. But as he walked quickly, his body was steaming with heat. While he was panting, a stream of heat rushed from the soles of his feet to the top of his head. Even his hair was steaming, as if he was about to ascend to immortality.

The same goes for Du Jiyan.

My lips were trembling with cold, and my hands were almost numb, but a wave of heat surrounded my whole body, making me feel like I was sitting in a steamer, dripping with sweat.

After finally returning to Yongfu Hall, he was stopped by the emperor.

There were no ghosts in the middle of the night, and he still had to deal with the emperor. Du Jiyan was a little perfunctory: "Your Majesty, how is the queen's illness?"

"She's fine. She took the medicine and fell asleep. She'll be fine tomorrow."

"Then can my concubine return to Yongfu Palace?"

"Are you in a hurry to go back?"

“It’s too cold outside”

"Where is it cold?"

"My hands were so cold that I couldn't feel anything while carrying the food box all the way." Du Jiyan was just telling the truth. He was not wearing thick clothes, but his hands were red from the cold.

"Then don't stretch it out yet." The emperor quarreled at her.

Du Jiyan was confused and stretched out his hand? It's still cold if you don't stretch out your hand, but isn't it even colder if you stretch it out?

Not stretched.

"Stupid." The emperor directly took Du Jiyan's hand, untied his robe and warmed it on his chest. The emperor's clothes were warm, and his chest was even warmer. Du Jiyan's hand caressed his chest, and he could even touch the soft cotton on his chest and his sweat-soaked shirt.

A warmth extended from Du Jiyan's hand to her chest.

So warm.

Kind of comfortable.

Du Jiyan wished he could put his hand close to the emperor's chest to relieve the pain in his hand.

But she didn't dare. Wouldn't that look more perverted?
Although he was handsome, she couldn't take advantage of him. After all, he was the emperor, and his dragon body was very precious, and it was not for her to use as a stove.

Thinking of this, Du Jiyan stretched out his hand consciously. Unexpectedly, the emperor clamped her hand directly, unbuttoned the placket of his inner clothes, and pressed her hand directly on his chest: "Are you talking to me?" If you want to play, do you want to refuse but still welcome?"

"I don't dare, my concubine."

"Are you afraid to warm your hands on me, or are you afraid to stick to me?" The emperor's chin lowered, his eyes were bright and deep, and he looked at Du Jiyan with a hint of joking: "Don't you dare to do it? Do you dare? Or, you haven’t seen me recently and your hand is raw?”

Du Jiyan blushed at what he said, and pressed his chest with his hand, his mind went blank, whiter than snow.

His chest was so hot, like a ball of fire, and his heart was beating so fast, thump, thump, almost like it was about to jump out.

She pressed against his chest, her whole body close to him.

This kind of scalding warmth is very valuable on a snowy night.

Du Jiyan was almost intoxicated by the warmth, but her reason pulled her back. Did the emperor come to Yongfu Palace late at night just to warm her hands?
Is the emperor so good?
Du Jiyan raised his face and asked, "Why does the emperor come to Yongfu Palace so late?"

"Are you afraid that you will act coldly?"

"It's not impossible"

"I was in a hurry to go to Jingren Palace and forgot to call you a sedan chair. I was afraid that you would freeze all the way back." It was rare for the emperor to say such sincere words.

Du Jiyan was also a little moved: "Your Majesty thinks of me like this, and I don't feel cold anymore."

"He said it wasn't cold, but his hands were as cold as ice." The emperor lowered his head and touched Du Jiyan's upturned face.

His lips were cold.

The emperor stretched out his hand, gently stroked Du Jiyan's cold lips with his thumb, and said with some distress: "My lips are so cold, I don't know how to warm them up."

As the emperor said this, his head lowered further, and his cold lips were about to touch Du Jiyan's lips.

Gao Rang hurriedly turned around and pressed the palace lantern in his hand to the ground again.

“Squeak——” The door of Yongfu Hall opened, and Shi Jing, wearing goose-yellow clothes, poked his head out.

Xueye's vision was not good, so Shi Jing saw a dark figure at the door. Du Jiyan's lantern and food box were placed on the ground, and he urged: "Why aren't you back? I heard that the emperor came just now? He came to us again in the middle of the night. What's going on in Yongfu Hall? Don't want to have a late-night snack, the small kitchen won't open in the middle of the night."

Shi Jing yawned.

Du Jiyan clearly heard the emperor sigh.

Shi Jing walked down the steps and raised the lantern in his hand high: "It's so cold outside, why are you standing outside?"

Shi Jing was stunned, she saw the emperor.

The emperor sighed again.

This historical scene could not have come at a better time.

Du Jiyan quickly withdrew his hand from the emperor's chest.

The emperor quickly straightened his inner coat, but the buttons of his outer coat had not yet been buttoned: "Shi Jing, why are you out of bed in the middle of the night?"

Shi Jing had no choice but to be blessed: "Back to the emperor, I heard from Papaya that Du Changzai is back, but he hasn't seen her going to bed, and I feel uneasy, so I came out to have a look."

"That's it."

"Why didn't the emperor come in even though he was here? Shi Jing asked. She always said what she had to say on the spot.

The emperor was a little embarrassed: "I often go to deliver food to me, but I was busy and didn't use it, so I came here to use some more."

The emperor said, poking Du Jiyan.

Du Jiyan said hurriedly: "Ah, yes, yes, the emperor is here to eat."

Play to the end.

Du Jiyan looked for the food box and found that the food in the food box was still there, but it was no longer warm.

There was some thin ice stubble hanging on the plate of roasted squab with fruit wood.

The emperor looked troubled.

This stupid person is opening the food box at this time. Do you want him to eat it?

His lips were so cold that he still wanted to chew on this squab hung with thin ice?
When has the emperor ever been so wronged?
