C185 (2/2)
When they arrived at Ying Tai, Wang Rong and the others personally took a bath for Zhu Yijun and changed into cool and dry sleeping clothes. His hair was wrapped up by a large handkerchief, and Wang Rong and Zhu Yijun placed his head on her legs to comb his hair, once, twice. Until Zhu Yijun relaxed and fell into his sweet dream.
Inside the bedchamber was Wang Rong and the Calm Incense that had already been lit.
Wang Rong He came out to meet with the doctor and asked, ”This Lucky Life Pill, did you find out what it was?”
There is still a little bit of red stone fat left in this Longevity Dan, which is called Frigid Food Powder. If consumed, one will initially feel refreshed and stronger, like a fish in water, but after taking it for a long period of time, it will become harmful to their body. Once they lose their appetite, they will be unable to control themselves, but if they do not lose their appetite for a long period of time, their body will weaken and they will die from paralysis.
Wang Rong He grasped his handkerchief. ”The thief is bold enough to offer such a poisonous substance to His Majesty.”
”This place is still lacking the red stone resin, so we can't gather the Frostbite Powder. Perhaps this is the reason why we can hide our faces and offer it to His Majesty.” the imperial physician said. ” However, there is a red lead in this pill which is also extremely overbearing. If you take it for a long time, it will also harm your body. ”
”Go in and check His Majesty's pulse. See how His Majesty is doing?” Wang Rong He said.
The Imperial Physician quietly went in and out of the room. His eyebrows were tightly knitted, and he didn't look optimistic at all.
”How is His Majesty's body?” Wang Rong He said.
”There's no one else here. The imperial physician, just tell me the truth. It came from your mouth and entered my ears. I cannot let a third person know.”
The imperial physician needed a pen and paper to write a few sentences for Wang Rong and Wang Rong. Wang Rong and saw that the poison had already accumulated in the emperor's body, so removing the poison was secondary.
”If His Majesty doesn't eat it now, will you be able to stop it?”
”Naturally.” ”It's just that if we don't eat it, it will be very hard for His Majesty.”
”I know.” Wang Rong He closed his eyes and said, ”The imperial physician can only prescribe a prescription for His Majesty to recuperate. I will handle the rest.”
After the imperial physician left, Wang Rong He was served with a change of clothes and a ring of hairpins. ”Empress, your back's getting wet?”
”I will accompany His Majesty to rest for a while. All of you, go down and wait. Don't come up until you hear someone call you.” Wang Rong He said.
She had changed into a moon-white pajamas that was snug to the body. Her skirt fluttered and her hair was braided in a big ponytail that hung by her side. She didn't sleep at all when she got to the edge of the bed, only holding onto her body and waving her fan as she fanned Zhu Yijun.
When he was showering, he noticed that he had lost some of his weight. Now that he was lying quietly down to sleep, it was obvious that his eyes were dark, his face pale, and his lips dark.
”Every day, you spend so much money and drink to your heart's content, who would believe that you're suffering?” Wang Rong muttered to herself, her heart clogged with discomfort. What emperor, he didn't have the slightest bit of intelligence, ”You eat whatever others give you?” who's not afraid of eating himself to death one day. ”
”Not many people from your Old Zhu Clan have died from medicine, and yet you still dare to call Daoists into the palace, and even dare to eat medicine pills.”
”If I didn't want to be a widow at such a young age, I wouldn't care if you lived or died.”
Zhu Yijun only felt that he slept soundly. It had been a long time since he slept so well. When he woke up, he felt that his four limbs were all filled with comfort, softness and comfort.
The temperature in the room was not low. There was a intermittent cool breeze, so it was much better than nothing. Zhu Yijun opened his eyes and wanted to scold the person who was waving the fan for being lazy, but the moment he opened his eyes, he saw Wang Rong holding her head and waving her fan tiredly, not moving at all.
Zhu Yijun carefully took the fan in her hand, waking her up. She covered her mouth with her hand and yawned.
”If you're tired, go sleep. Let palace maid fan you.” Zhu Yijun said.
”I'm having fun.” Wang Rong smiled and said, ”His Majesty has been sleeping for a long time. The sky has already darkened, so I had someone set the table for dinner. Your Majesty, please get up and have a meal.”
Zhu Yijun propped up his body half a sitting, looking at Wang Rong and her big skirt, he walked around like a butterfly's wings, light and swaying, not like a child's mother, but more like a girl.
The dining table was placed in the outer room. Wang Rong did not change her clothes, she did not let Zhu Yijun change either, ”It's just the two of us now, come freely.”
Wang Rong gave Zhu Yijun some food to serve, the celery prawn, the bitter gourd cup, the winter melon lion's head, the cold mixed black fungus, they emitted a sour and slobbering smell, litchi sweet meat, green bean lily quail soup, and a few other dishes.
”Did you change your eating habits?” Zhu Yijun asked after eating a few mouthfuls. In fact, he and Wang Rong had the same eating habits. They liked to eat meat and vegetables, so he didn't dare to take an interest in vegetables.
”In the summer, it's better to have something lighter to eat.” Wang Rong He pretended to not know and expressionlessly ate a bitter melon he hated the most, and then gave three to Zhu Yijun.
