Chapter 243 The crying little queen mother (23)
When Lin Yan woke up, it was already the second day. It was bright outside, and only a few palace maids were guarding the inner room.

She moved her arm and felt a pulling sensation. It wasn't painful, but it felt weird. Thinking of so many people in the inner room, she quickly added a "hiss", feeling the pain of gasping for air.

The palace maid who heard the commotion came over quickly. Seeing this, two people came over to help, while one of them ran out to pass the message.

I have to tell the Emperor that the Queen Mother is here. I have to call the imperial doctor over to see how the situation is.

"Empress Dowager, you have lost too much blood. Please rest for now. If you have anything to do, just leave it to your servants." The two of them helped her sit up and placed several soft cushions behind her for her to lean on. There is a focus.

Lin Yan was treated like a porcelain doll, but it was true that she had to be cared for carefully after suffering such a serious injury.

After feeling it for a while, she could only feel the pain in her shoulder, which was numb, and seemed to be a little numb. Is it because the pain has been there for a long time and that’s why it’s numb?
Although she felt no pain, her forehead was covered in fine sweat and her face didn't look good.

Anyone who saw her would never think that she couldn't feel any pain.

"Get the bronze mirror." She wanted to see what she looked like now.

The palace maid was in such a dilemma and didn't know whether she should do it or not, but seeing her persistence, she could only sigh and turned around to get it.

The polished and shiny bronze mirror clearly reflected the appearance of a certain woman at this time. His appearance is still extraordinary, even if it is morbid, it still gives people a feeling of weakness.

It's just that the lips are not cinnabar-colored, but dyed black as if they had eaten several kilograms of mulberries.

"I..." Lin Yan couldn't help but stretched out her uninjured hand and gently touched her lips. Questions were frantically asking Xiaoba in her mind. When she woke up, she had turned black?

Xiaoba said helplessly: "You are poisoned."

"Poisoned? What kind of poison? I won't die, right?" What will happen to the mission if I die? Rewind and start over?

The first three planes were fine and smooth, but this plane has always been bumpy. Are you deliberately trying to make things difficult for her?
She complained to Xiaoba in her heart, but the expression on her face was very heavy and a little impatient. It's like he can burst into anger at any time and scold the people around him.

Seeing this, the two palace ladies hurriedly comforted: "The Queen Mother, the Emperor has ordered the imperial doctors to treat your injuries, so don't worry too much. The doctors will solve it, and the Queen Mother will be safe."

No matter what time it is, it is always right to say something nice.

Lin Yan came to her senses, put down the bronze mirror in her hand, and rubbed her brows again.

"How is the emperor? Is he okay?" Although he knew that he was okay, it was just a routine inquiry.

"Back to the Queen Mother, the Emperor is fine. He came to see you once this morning and left when he saw that you were not yet awake. However, he had told his slaves that if they saw you awake, they must go and inform you."

To say how good the relationship between the Emperor and the Queen Mother is, in fact there is not. After all, the two of them had nothing in common, and their usual interactions were normal and did not cross the line.

But to say they have a bad relationship is not like it. The emperor's temper caused the little empress dowager, who was still a concubine, to be buried in the imperial mausoleum as early as the palace change. But he didn't. Instead, he was promoted to Queen Mother and was given the Phoenix Seal.

There is not much age difference between the two. Indeed, the younger one became the Queen Mother, his nominal mother. No one could understand the meaning of the emperor's doing these things, but no one knew that it was completely meaningless for him to do these things.

To put it harshly, it’s just leisure.

What's more secretive is that when he looks at the other person's crying face, he actually feels unbearable. But only he himself knew this.

Just as Lin Yan was about to say something, he heard the voice of the chief manager outside.

"The Emperor has arrived!" In an instant, the two palace ladies hurriedly knelt down on one side, their heads lowered, not daring to look directly at the Holy Face. Looking directly at the saint's face is called disrespect. The lighter punishment is to hit him with a board, and the worst punishment is to kill him with a stick.

But now is not the time to dwell on this, because the emperor didn't pay attention to the two of them at all.

When Xia Jingyan came in, he saw a pale face with an abrupt black lip. There was a thin layer of cold sweat on her forehead, and her expression was indifferent. She looked calm, but in fact she had been enduring the pain for a long time.

"Everyone, go down and call the doctor over."

"Yes."

He walked to the bedside, sat down, and looked at her with a complicated expression.

"Why...you want to save me?" He could have avoided it at that time. No one needs to save her.

It was just her subconscious behavior that still made him feel a little confused.

Lin Yan pursed her lips, her uninjured hand clasping the quilt uneasily, and then she heard her muffled voice, "Because you are the only one in this world who treats me well."

Not because of his status, but because he felt sorry for her, so he gave her kindness.

Aunt Liu is good, but if she is not the Queen Mother, the two of them are destined to have no intersection. So the premise that is good for her is that she is the Queen Mother.

Xia Jingyan treats her well and doesn't care whether she is the Queen Mother or not. Seeing her pity is also a kind of charity, but who knows that people in darkness are not praying for this kind of charity?

Perhaps to others, this kind of charity is undignified. But for those struggling in the darkness to escape, this is light. It’s also redemption.

Xia Jingyan's expression became more complicated. He was stuck in the quagmire and wanted someone to help him. But now the other party told him that he had become the other party's salvation.

It's quite funny, but there is a little secret joy in my heart?

For a moment, he didn't know how to reply to her words.

Fortunately, she didn't seem to be obsessed with this matter, but changed the topic.

"Your Majesty, has the assassin been caught? Has the mastermind been found out?"

"The assassin is dead." Xia Jingyan answered evasively, "Does the wound still hurt?"

Lin Yan was stunned for a moment, then held back tears and shook her head, "It doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt at all."

"It hurts so much that you started talking nonsense. Doesn't it still hurt?"

"I...I'm used to it." What are you used to? She is just used to being cared about by no one. As for how the other party will understand her, that is not something she can change.

Falling in Xia Jingyan's ears, it was natural that she had been bullied a lot over the years, so she was used to this kind of pain.

"You...sigh!" She should have been said to be unable to hold herself up to the wall, but she was bullied to such an extent that she didn't even have the ability to fight back.

But when I think that she is just a helpless woman, I feel like I am taking it for granted.

The atmosphere was a little awkward, but it happened that the imperial doctor came at this time, which relieved it a little.
