The Biography of Concubine Wen Xi in Qing Palace

Chapter 525 Fourth Elder Brother ([-])
After lunch in the afternoon, the sun is shining warmly on the warm seats.On Rong Yue's neck was a soft pillow with a phoenix head and forehead, and she was resting with her eyes closed.

In front of the dormitory, the gauze curtain of ziying stone hangs down quietly, occasionally swaying with the wind, reflecting a scorching halo hitting the ground, lighting up the stars all over the place.

She was falling asleep when she heard Que Zhen come in and stand beside her.

Rong Yue raised her eyes lazily when she heard the noise, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Half of the mottled light spots refracted by the purple quartz hit Quezhen's dark green maid's gauze dress, she lowered her voice very low, and said with a half-smile: "Physician Qiu is waiting outside the palace, and the fourth elder brother has already sent a message. gone."

Rong Yue suddenly opened her eyes wide, and the drowsiness was gone: "Didn't it only happen during dinner? Why so fast?"

Quezhen Nuonuo said: "There is no certainty how long this medicine will be used with food. Seeing the plate of stewed bamboo fungus with ham today, my elder brother likes to eat it. I eat a little more, so the onset occurred earlier."

Rong Yue got up immediately, put on her coat and walked out of the hall: "I'm going to take a look, and tell Qiu Qi to come in at the right time."

When Rong Yue came, all the nursing mothers in Yinzhen's palace panicked, and when they saw Rong Yue, they all knelt down and begged for forgiveness.

Seeing them dizzy and upset, Rong Yue simply sent them out together, and took care of Yinzhen by herself.

She touched the child's forehead with high fever, his little face was flushed with heat, and his limbs were trembling uncontrollably.

Yinzhen raised his heavy eyelids and glanced at Rong Yue, with tears brimming in the corners of his eyes: "Mother, my son is so uncomfortable."

Rong Yue stepped forward and hugged Yin Zhen, and kissed him lightly on the forehead: "It's all right, but it's just a common fever, I think it's something wrong with my mother, because you were greedy for the cold and offered a lot of ice in the temple, and replaced it for you at night. Only after wearing a thin silk quilt, did I catch a cold."

Rong Yue's voice was trembling with these words, and she remembered tears welling up in her eyes: "Good boy, don't be afraid, the imperial doctor is coming soon."

Yinzhen obediently stretched out his hand to wipe away Rong Yue's tears: "Emother doesn't cry, it's because my son is not good, he always complains about his body heat. Let Emother stop crying, my son is better."

"Stupid child" Rong Yue placed a plain towel soaked in cold water on Yin Zhen's forehead, at the same time, Que Zhen entered the room and said loudly: "Ma'am, the imperial physician Qiu is here, do you want to tell him to come in?"

Rong Yue said anxiously: "Why are you asking, I didn't see that Yinzhen was suffering, bring someone here!"

Not long after, a slightly stooped man with a wide nose and big eyes entered the room.

This person's name was Qiu Qi, and he was Rong Yuexin's confidant whom Rong Yuexin had found in the imperial hospital after Zhang Kui's death.

This man regards wealth as his life, and he had a beautiful wife and daughter in his family, but because the rich men in the city took a fancy to her maiden's beauty, he sold his first wife to others for 300 taels of silver.

Another girl was also entangled in gambling debts, so she was sent to a remote brothel for money.

From the bottom of my heart, I can't look down on such a man's character and joy, but he has to be such a person who loves money as much as his life and is greedy for life and fear of death, so that he can be more controlled by himself.

Today, Yinzhen fell ill for no reason, it was because Rong Yue ordered Qiu Qi to add medicinal powder that could cause high fever to his food.

It is related to the prince's health, such a thing would not dare to be done by the other imperial physicians.But when Qiu Qi saw the 15 taels of silver, he didn't retreat at all, and agreed with a smile on his face.

He went in and spread out the medicine box, and then took Yinzhen's pulse in a serious manner.

Not long after, his brows and eyes drooped, he stroked his beard and pretended to be a gesture, and sighed: "Si elder brother's disease is not good. It may take a long time for it to be cured by ordinary medicine and stones."

"If the imperial doctor has something to say, just say it, don't try to keep it to yourself."

"This..." Qiu Qi stood up and worshiped: "Si elder brother's disease needs to be used as medicine. And it must be a woman's blood. Although maidservants in the empress's palace are fine, they are always of humble status. No way of knowing. This"

Hearing this, Rong Yue looked back at Yinzhen with a smile on her face, gently stroked his rosy cheeks, and said in a steady voice: "Don't worry, Erniang is here."

After saying that, he actually picked up a small peeling knife from a small table beside him, and without hesitation, cut a bright red gash on his forearm.

Immediately, the thick red blood soaked out, dripping down her forearm to the ground.

Yinzhen looked anxiously, supported his weak body to get up, pulled Rong Yue's clothes and cried, "Emiang, Ermiang, you are bleeding, Emiang! Imperial doctor, look at Emiang!"

Rong Yue smiled warmly, comforted Yinzhen and said: "It's nothing, to save you, why not my mother shed some blood?"

Seeing Rong Yue like this, Qiu Qi was quite frightened, and hurriedly took a clean cup to get some of Rong Yue's blood, and then hurriedly treated her wound, bandaging it up three times inside and outside.

Yinzhen cried endlessly, and after Rongyue's wound was bandaged, he whimpered and said, "Er Niang is in so much pain. My son used to wrestle, but only a little bit of blood came out of the wound, and he cried in pain."

Rong Yue wiped away his hot tears, shook her head and said with a smile: "It's nothing, my mother doesn't hurt. Come on, lie down quickly." Then, she ordered Qiu Qi to quickly decoct the medicine.

After staring at Yinzhen for about half an hour, and waiting for him to drink the medicine, Rong Yue reassured: "You can only rest assured if you are safe, Er Niang, isn't it, Er Niang."

Her voice gradually weakened, she pretended to caress her forehead, her body swayed, and she fainted on the ground.

Yinzhen shouted anxiously: "Emiang! What's wrong with you, Emiang!"

The movement startled the palace servants who were waiting outside, Que Zhen headed inside, and when she saw this, she let out a cry of surprise, and hurriedly ordered people to carry Rong Yue back to the bedroom, and before leaving the door, she ordered Yinzhen to say: "Si elder brother has used the medicine to rest. Come on, don't let the empress worry anymore."

But Yinzhen is extremely filial, seeing Rong Yue cutting blood to cure his own illness, how can he rest in peace?

He only cared about Xin Rongyue's injury, and when he felt relieved, he stayed on the bed and went out.

Coincidentally, I ran into Que Zhen who pushed the door open, saw him get down to the ground and hurriedly said: "Oh, my fourth elder brother, what are you doing? Lie down!"

"Aunt Quezhen, I'm going to see Er Niang! How is Er Niang?"

Quezhen took Yinzhen's hand and forced him to go back to the couch and lie down: "Your Majesty is fine, but her body is already weak, she just bled so much, and it will take ten days and a half months to recover." Touching Yinzhen's forehead, and comparing it to his own, he said with a smile: "Look at Si elder brother's fever subsided. Are you still uncomfortable?"

Yinzhen shook her head worriedly, and then Quezhen put on airs and sighed: "Oh, I don't blame my aunt for talking too much. Tong Niangniang treats you better than your mother-in-law treats you. Fourth elder brother, think about it, third elder brother is It was earlier than you moved to our Chengqian Palace, why is our empress so close to you alone, but always less than you to the third elder brother?"

Yinzhen remained silent, frowning and shaking his head again.

Quezhen stroked his bald forehead, and lamented: "Isn't it because the third elder brother always has her mother-in-law to care for you, but your mother-in-law doesn't take care of you often? Mother Tong really feels that you are helpless and very pitiful." , Tong Niangniang has no children under her knees, so naturally she is the most considerate to you."
