Empress: The Old Emperor's Way to Pursue His Wife

Chapter 123 Homage (7)

This year the Xiao family was all in the capital, Xiao Yiben had ordered them to be invited into the palace early in the morning, hoping that the family would celebrate the new year happily like before, and then watch the new year together.

As a result, Hua Caiyou was busy visiting good sisters in the capital, and Xiao Moyu was drawn to be a good husband based on the purpose of focusing on his wife, acting as a good husband and father in front of Hua Caiyou's sisters.

I was so busy until it was dark that I entered the palace.

In the small kitchen in the courtyard of Huahaoyueyuan Building, Hua Caiyou weighed a large spoon and stir-fried vegetables, while Xiao Yi helped wash and cut vegetables, and the two chatted and laughed happily.

Xiao Moyu stood at the door and watched without speaking.

After a while, Xiao Yi came over and yelled, "Mother-in-law, my lady, is the meal ready?"

Seeing Xiao Moyu standing at the door, Xiao Yi resentfully said, "Father-in-law."

"Yeah." Xiao Moyu still stood calmly, silently watching the busy mother and daughter inside.

Xiao Yi saw Xiao Yi standing behind Xiao Moyu like a grandson like a turtle, and the picture of the day appeared in her mind, so she laughed unceremoniously again.

"You girl is acting like a queen, why are you laughing like this all of a sudden?" Hua Caiyou spat at Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yi closed her voice, but the smile on the corner of her mouth was still uncontrollable.

"Silly girl, what's worth your laughing like this?"

Xiao Yi glanced at Xiao Yi, and said in a low voice, "Mother, I'll tell you after dinner, I'm sure you'll be happier than me."

"Really?" Hua Caiyou's curiosity was aroused, but no matter how she asked, Xiao Yi kept her mouth shut and didn't say a word.

As soon as the food was put on the table, Hua Caiyou couldn't hold back, "Tell me, Yueyue, what is it that made you laugh like this?"

Xiao Yi pouted and snorted, "She's not only smiling like this, she's been laughing all day long."

"Really? What's the matter?"

Xiao Yi shook his head, he also wanted to know when it was, but Xiao Yi's mouth was firm... Xiao Yi glanced at Xiao Xi'er who was beside Xiao Shu in his arms.

He asked Xiao Xi'er, but the little guy was either laughing or crying, or just flinching.Moreover, the skill of shaking face is getting better every day.

Xiao Xi'er, who was held in Xiao Shu's hands, seemed to have sensed something, looked at her father with two big eyes, clapped her little fleshy palms happily, and then waved her arms at Xiao Yi with a flutter.

Xiao Yi thought that Xiao Xi'er wanted him to hug her, so he held Xiao Xi'er in his arms, and while teasing and playing with her, he fed Xiao Xi some food that she could eat.

Xiao Yi happily told Hua Caiyou about what happened this morning, and she would dance and gesture whenever she said something.And Xiao Xi'er in Xiao Yi's arms... waved her hands and feet, giggling.

The baby's clear and crisp smile deeply hurt Xiao Yi's ear.

He asked why Xiao Xi'er didn't look like she wanted him to hug her just now, but it turned out to be... three black lines slid down, and Xiao Yi seemed to fall into an ice cave, desolate.

He really didn't expect that his precious daughter would plot against him behind his back, causing him to be laughed at by Xiao Yi for so long. After a long, long time, Xiao Yi would still be with Xiao who became the first empress of Dachu. Xi Xi talked about this, and then the mother and daughter laughed at him unceremoniously for being too emperor.

"Tch!" The villain in his arms sneezed, disturbing the hearts of everyone at the table.

Xiao Moyu got up and stretched out his hands, "Give me Xiao Xi'er."

Not willing to neglect, Xiao Yi quickly handed Xiao Xi over to Xiao Moyu.

Xiao Xi'er sneezed a few more times, and Hua Caiyou exclaimed: "You must have let Xiao Xi'er sit in the snow and catch a cold, sir, please check to see if she is cold, don't just have a fever .”

Xiao Moyu touched Xiao Xi's forehead, and frowned, "Fortunately, I don't have a fever, maybe I just caught a cold, and I should be fine if I give Xiao Xi'er something to repel the cold."

Stared at by Xiao Moyu, Xiao Yi fell silent. Since she had Xiao Xi, Xiao Yi dropped one place in Xiao Moyu's list of important people.

Alas, the ancients said that 'fortune and misfortune depend on each other', which is true.

After dinner, Xiao Xi'er was fed some ginger tea. The whole family sat around in the hall lively, eating dried fruits and drinking tea, chatting and teasing Xiao Xi.

This is Xiao Yi's long-awaited team member, who usually enjoys it happily.

After the New Year's Eve, Xiao Xi'er didn't know it was because she ate ginger tea, she was supposed to sleep soundly, but she stayed with these adults to watch the New Year's Eve till dawn.

The joyful atmosphere didn't make anyone aware that something was wrong, until the dawn, Xiao Yi and Xiao Yi returned to the Dragon Bed with Xiao Xi'er in their arms and prepared to have a big sleep.

Earth-shattering cries resounded throughout the palace.

"Xiao Xi'er, what's wrong with you? Don't cry, okay, it's been a whole night, why are you still so energetic?" Xiao Yi patted Xiao Xi'er lightly.

"That's right, your mother and father are almost exhausted, little ancestor, would you please stop for a while?"

Xiao Xi'er didn't care whether he was sleepy or not, she just opened her mouth and cried loudly.

"Yueyue, you said that Xi'er hasn't slept all night and is still crying so hard, is she sick?"

Xiao Yi was extremely sleepy, talking dizzily, Xiao Yi remembered those sneezes that Xiao Xi'er sneezed last night, it seems that she still sneezed many times after drinking ginger tea.

When I touched it with my hand, the heat from the forehead spread to the center of the palm, it was scalding hot.

"Xi'er has a fever." Xiao Yi got up quickly and touched Xiao Xi'er's forehead again.

"What!" Xiao Yi jumped up from the bed and squeezed Xiao Xi'er's palm. The temperature was clearly a high fever.

"Xi'er obviously drank ginger tea."

"What else are you thinking about, call the imperial doctor quickly."

On the first day of the new year, the genius was slightly cold, and Bao Shuhua, as the on-duty imperial doctor, was about to go back home to sleep, but was stopped by the palace guards, saying that the princess had a sudden high fever.

The queen has a high fever, what a big deal.

Bao Shuhua rushed to the dragon bed in a hurry, although he didn't watch the emperor take the princess out of the queen's belly, but he saw the emperor of Chu come out of the delivery room covered in blood.

The emperor's daughter is the flesh and blood on the apex of the emperor's emperor's empress, and she cannot be neglected.

Walking outside the dragon's bedroom, even though his body was covered with melted snow, Bao Shuhua was still sweating profusely from running.

After breathing steadily, Bao Shuhua let the father-in-law who was waiting at the door inform him.

"What's the matter with the ink, let the imperial physician come in." Xiao Yi roared angrily.

The father-in-law who informed him hurriedly withdrew, and after a while Bao Shuhua entered the room, kneeling three times and kowtowing nine times.

Bao Shuhua didn't want to worry about these complicated etiquettes anymore, but today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and it was the first time he met the emperor and queen...

Xiao Yi roared: "Okay, okay, Bao Shuhua, give me the ink again. If the princess makes a mistake because of this, I will ask your whole family to be buried with her."

Bao Shuhua got up quickly, and took out the red rope for consultation from his arms.

Xiao Yi was coaxing Xiao Xi'er back and forth in the palace, seeing Bao Shuhua holding the red string, "Bao Shuhua!"

"Ah?" Bao Shuhua raised his hand to look at Xiao Yi, and silently put away the red rope under her gaze.

Bao Shuhua checked Xiao Xi'er's pulse, and Fang said: "Don't worry, the emperor and queen, I will go down and make medicine for Your Highness, just take two pastes, and Your Highness will recover."

Xiao Xi'er was obviously tired from crying and had no strength due to illness, she was already drowsy, but her big eyes were half-closed, and her crying was ruddy and slightly swollen, which made people feel distressed when they saw it.

Hearing that Bao Shuhua said nothing was wrong, Xiao Yi breathed a sigh of relief, and waved his hand: "You are also tired, Imperial Physician Bao, write down the prescription, and the servant will cook the medicine, and you should go back to rest earlier."

"My humble minister, thank you, Your Majesty." Bao Shuhua wrote down the prescription and handed it to an internal servant, then left the palace and returned to the mansion.

After working on New Year's Eve, it was his turn to take a bath in the past two days, so he did not enter the palace.As a result, he was only safe for one day, and he was captured by the hidden guards and taken into the palace.

"Bao Shuhua, didn't you say that the fever will subside after two doses of medicine? You go and touch Xiao Xi'er's forehead, is that called fever reduction? Is that fever reduction!"

The emperor was angry, and Bao Shuhua tremblingly walked up to the emperor.

Xiao Xi'er, who looked a little bit alive yesterday, is already on the verge of death, with more breaths and less breaths.

How could this be?Bao Shuhua quickly squeezed Xiao Xi'er's small wrist, frowning.

how so!The medicine he put on was obviously aimed at reducing fever, why did the princess drink the medicine not only did not reduce the fever, but instead made her fever worse.

Xiao Yi stayed beside Xiao Xi'er, and she could clearly see the expression on Bao Shuhua's face.

"Imperial Physician Bao, I believe in your medical skills, and I will give you another chance. If I can't heal the princess well this time, I won't be able to protect you and my family."

Bao Shuhua lost his life, and quickly retreated to the Tai Hospital to grab medicine.

In the dragon bedroom, it was supposed to be a festive day, but due to Xiao Xi's sudden serious illness, the atmosphere became particularly dignified.

The three members of the Xiao family came to say goodbye yesterday afternoon, so they were worried, so Xiao Yi kept Xiao Xi's illness a secret.

She also thought it would be cured after just two doses of medicine, but she didn't expect that...she could still trust Bao Shuhua's medical skills, after all, on the way to Dongzhou, he still took good care of the sick Mo Yanxiao.

"Xiao Yi, please calm down for me."

"Yueyue, how can I calm down, once I see Xiao Xi'er like this, I will..."

Xiao Yi walked back and forth, and from time to time rushed to Xiao Xi'er to take a look, and then continued to walk.Seeing this back and forth, Xiao Yi didn't have a headache, but also felt dizzy.

"Okay, it won't get better if you turn to Xi'er again."

"But if I don't turn, I will be bad."

"Xiao Yi, it won't be good if you turn to me again."

Xiao Yi stopped, and stood erect in front of the bed, staring at the motionless little body on the bed with a pair of red dragon eyes, frowning tightly.

"Emperor and Empress." Bao Shuhua ran in from the outside, grabbing some herbs with both hands.

"Bao Shuhua, what are you doing? The Empress asked you to make medicine to cure Xi'er, not to show us." At this moment, Xiao Yi exploded with every touch.

"Your Majesty and Empress, you have to look at this medicine, because..." Bao Shuhua showed Xiao Yi and Xiao Yi the medicine in his hand.

Xiao Yi looked at the little bupleurum in Bao Shuhua's hand, her phoenix eyes sparkled.

Where is Xiao Bupleurum here, it is clearly some unknown broken branches and leaves.

Ah!It seems that the palace is too stable to allow those individuals who are small and small to succeed.

No wonder Xiao Xi couldn't get well after drinking the medicine. These medicines are all fake, so how can they cure the disease well.

Xiao Yi waved his dragon robe and shouted: "Come here, arrest all those dog servants who are in charge of the prescriptions."
