Virtuous Ugly Empress - C220

The empress’s fever did not subside. Amongst all these people, there was someone who was even more worried.

The Empress Dowager Li looked at Gu mama. “Isn’t that medicine only capable of causing fever? Why is the empress’s condition so serious?”

“Imperial Physician Du sent a letter. It really doesn’t look good.” Gu mama said, “The fever won’t subside. There’s no use changing prescriptions. Even Imperial Physician Du panicked. He’s worried that His Majesty will let them die with His Majesty when the time comes.”

“If His Majesty really wants Imperial Physician Du to be buried alive, I’m afraid Imperial Physician Du will say something.”

“If the empress really was gone, This Dowager wouldn’t even dare to think about His Majesty’s reaction right now.” The Empress Dowager Li said with a headache, “But if the empress really does have a short lifespan, then tell Imperial Physician Du to shut up early and die quietly to calm His Majesty’s anger.”

“No.” “The Empress is thinking of His Majesty now. I must call upon His Majesty.”

“empress had said before that unless she stood up and removed the restriction herself, no one was allowed to enter and exit the Ying Tai.” Xu Duzhong said, “Who are you going to pass on the message to? “Who will listen to you.”

“I’ll go.” Xu Duzhong said.

When Xu Duzhong arrived at the Ying Tai bridge, he said to the person guarding the bridge, “There’s something important going on with the Empress’s condition. I need to report it to His Majesty.”

The guard looked at the wind lamp at the side, then looked at the stars in the sky, “Imperial Physician Xu, these lights are blind, how can we send a letter to the palace?”

“I know you have your ways.” Xu Duzhong said, “If it isn’t extremely urgent, how can I not wait until daylight? But now, all of you should quickly go and report.

The guards looked at each other, guessing that the empress must have been in a bad mood due to her anxiety. What if the empress died? The guard trembled, “Imperial Physician Xu, please wait for a moment, I will immediately send a message to you.”

The palace doors were shut tight at night, but there were naturally emergency communication channels left for emergency use. After the guard sent Imperial Physician Xu’s words to him, Chen Ju paid close attention to them and never slept a wink at night. After hearing the news, he took his identity plate and went out, flying all the way to the Ying Tai, then looked at Imperial Physician Xu.

“The Empress wishes to see His Majesty.” Xu Duzhong said.

“Is the Empress awake?” Chen Ju asked.

Xu Duzhong shook his head.

Chen Ju also thought of the worst case scenario, his face pale, “Has it already reached this level?”

“When Eunuch Chen went to report to His Majesty, he could say it as seriously as he could. The Empress has always been calling out to His Majesty.”

“I know.” Chen Ju said. He did not delay for even a second, he rushed back to the palace, if he wanted to go to the morning court, he would have woken up already, but the emperor was still unhappy, he would be up an hour late, and went to Huangji Hall to handle government affairs.

However, Chen Ju knew that in the past few days, His Majesty had not been able to sleep soundly. Thus, he directly went in and knelt in front of the dragon bed, “Your Majesty.”

Zhu Yijun opened the curtain and looked at him.

“Your Majesty, Imperial Physician Xu said that he wanted to see you.” Chen Ju said.

“Has the Empress gone cold?” Zhu Yijun said in surprise, “You’ve recovered?”

Chen Ju shook his head.

Zhu Yijun’s heart immediately sank. He calmly said to make people change their clothes and go to the Ying Tai, but in reality, his hands were trembling.

How could that be?

Impossible.

Zhu Yijun was stopped by the pavilion officials who rushed over upon hearing the news, and some even went to inform the empress dowager that his majesty wanted to go to the Ying Tai. The Esteemed Empress Dowager had to quickly send people to stop him, they absolutely could not let his majesty enter the Ying Tai.

“Why did Your Majesty suddenly want to go to the Ying Tai?” Empress Dowager Li said in shock, the sky had not lit up yet.

“It seems to be the information about the Ying Tai. If I say empress, it might not be good.”

The Empress Dowager Li’s body swayed, and after a moment she said, “Have Imperial Consort Yi’s imperial decree to persuade Your Majesty. If Your Majesty doesn’t care about the lives of the world and the Great Ming Empire, then go to the Ying Tai.”

After they left, Gu mama asked the Empress Dowager Li, “The empress dowager knows that the empress’s illness isn’t contagious, so how can she not make His Majesty go see her? Maybe this is the last thing between them. ”

“By now, everyone outside the palace firmly believes that the empress is infected with the plague, and even the officials know that they have to stop him. If I do not send someone to stop him at this time, wouldn’t that be telling others that there is a problem with my life?” Empress Dowager Li said tiredly. She had never thought of letting Wang Rong die either. Now, she was really going to die.

She had to think about what to do next.

Zhu Yijun looked at the pavilion official who was blocking his way, “Scram.”

“Your Majesty.” “This old official knows that empress is infected with the plague, so how could I send His Majesty to the empress’s side? Even the Empress wouldn’t think so.”

“It’s the empress who wants to see Zhen.” Zhu Yijun said. The person whom the Ying Tai has served has not yet gotten hot. Whether it’s an epidemic or something else. ”

“But the Empress’s illness is very strange. His Majesty cannot refute this point. The high fever is the most contagious in these few days. If His Majesty is to have an accident, what should we do?” The pavilion master said.

Zhu Yijun didn’t want to talk much with them, so after getting off the carriage, he directly walked towards the Ying Tai. However, the pavilion minister disregarded his image and hugged onto Zhu Yijun’s legs, “Your Majesty, please reconsider.”

At this time, the Imperial Consort Yi came down from the carriage at the back, wearing a cloak. “I shall follow the orders of the empress dowager, Your Majesty, please take care of yourself for the rest of the world.”

Zhu Yijun turned his head around with killing intent, “You want to stop us too?”

The Imperial Consort Yi kneeled down, “If the Empress wants to see me now, even if she knows that I will die, I still want to enter.”

Zhu Yijun bent down and grabbed the collar of the Qi warrior, and whispered, “Maybe this time, the reason I came in was to see her for the last time.”

“Therefore, even if you were to die right in front of me, I will still enter. Understood?” Zhu Yijun pushed his officials away, and from then on, no one dared to stop His Majesty.

Zhu Yijun hurriedly walked into the Penglai Pavilion and knelt down in front of Wang Rong’s bed, tightly holding her hand. Wang Rong’s face was flushed red, her eyebrows knitted together, obviously feeling uncomfortable, and from time to time she would mutter a few words, calling her majesty, San Lang, and even going against the principles of calling her majesty Zhu Yijun by their name.

Zhu Yijun went to bed and hugged Wang Rong He, asking if he was sick first, “Why is it so hot?”

As he spoke to Wang Rong, his voice softened. “I’m here. Rong, open your eyes and take a look. Your Majesty is here.”

Wang Rong naturally had no reaction at all.

Zhu Yijun buried his head into her neck and couldn’t help but cry, “Xu Duzhong, how is the Empress’s body? Zhu Yijun raised his head and roared.

Xu Duzhong knelt down, and no one dared to look his majesty in the eye, “Now we can only look at the sickly face, and let the Empress soak in warm water, and see if it can cool down.”

“Then why aren’t you going?” Zhu Yijun said.

The Ying Tai had a huge bathing pool. In the summer, Wang Rong liked to use it as an indoor swimming pool, because it had to cool down, she couldn’t use too hot water. It was only slightly higher than the body’s temperature. Zhu Yijun carried Wang Rong and sat in the bath.

Always talking to her, calling her name.

Wang Rong and the scorching heat of her skin felt better against Zhu Yijun’s skin. She had already unconsciously called out “Your Majesty”, but before she could call out, Zhu Yijun had already replied, “I am.”

From the dawn to the sunrise, to the noon, answered many of the calls made by Wang Rong. There was not a single trace of impatience as Zhu Yijun thought that he was snatching Wang Rong’s hand away from the King of Hell.

“I am the Heaven’s Mandate’s son, my queen. If I don’t kill anyone, then I won’t take her life.”

“If you dare to accept them, I will smash your underworld palace even if I am to fall into the underworld.”

“She hasn’t even given birth to a son yet, how can we let her go like this?”

However, he kissed Wang Rong He’s forehead, imploring her, “Don’t be so heartless, don’t leave me like this, it’s not that you want to live together with me forever.” You are the king, the great lady of the Wang Family who dares to speak without hesitation, how can you not keep your word? ”

“How can you not speak to me?”

Perhaps it was because Zhu Yijun’s sincerity was moved by the heavens, but after soaking in it for an unknown period of time, it was only then that Zhu Yijun heard the person in his embrace not only call him but also say that the person in his arms was cold.

“Cold?” Only then did Zhu Yijun realise that the person’s temperature was no longer hot, and was even a little cold.

“Rest in peace.” Zhu Yijun shook his head in pleasant surprise.

“Your Majesty?” Wang Rong Yun was still unconscious, but he was still conscious.

Zhu Yijun almost shed tears again, tears fell on Wang Rong He’s face, they were warm, “It’s me, it’s me, I’m coming to accompany you.”

“Your Majesty?” Wang Rong He reached out to touch Zhu Yijun’s face, but his hand was powerless and could not lift it, so Zhu Yijun grabbed her hand and pressed it onto his face, “It’s me.”

“You’re here.” Wang Rong revealed a weak smile, “Your majesty, Zhu Yijun, San Lang.”

“It’s all my fault.” Zhu Yijun choked with sobs, “As long as you get better, you can call me anything in the future.”

“Piggy?” Wang Rong asked.

Zhu Yijun was originally really sad and joyous, as he was immersed in his emotions and could not withdraw immediately. However, after hearing Wang Rong’s words, he still could not help but laugh, even though his mood was heavy, he could not control his laughter, and this was not good at all. However, he could not bear to blame her, “Let me hold you up.”

He fell back into the bath, causing huge splashes. palace maid heard some noise and asked, “Your Majesty?”

“Two people have come in to serve the Empress.” Zhu Yijun said as he carried a person to maintain his seated position. His legs had long since become numb, and he said, “Go and tell Xu Duzhong to get ready, the Empress’s high fever is gone.”

When palace maid came in and saw her, she went to help the weak Empress up and changed her dry clothes. She wanted to help her lie down on the bed, but Zhu Yijun, who was still in the bath, refused to go.

“You go first, I’ll be right there.” Zhu Yijun said. Look, I want to change my clothes too, don’t you think? ”

Only then did Chen Ju come in and carried the emperor who was sitting in the bath away. He helped him change his clothes on the Imperial Noble Consort bed, and because he had been soaking in it for too long, his legs and feet were covered in flesh white bubbles.

“Your Majesty, ask the imperial physician to come take a look.” Chen Ju said.

“There’s no rush.” Zhu Yijun said, “The Empress is still waiting. We should get out earlier.”

Chen Ju understood his acupoints, and massaged his majesty’s legs a few times. After alleviating the numbness in his body, he helped his majesty change into a new set of clothes and went out.

Zhu Yijun walked to the side of the bed, but before he could ask, Wang Rong wanted to struggle free from the quilt and extend her hand towards him. When Zhu Yijun reached for her, she asked, “How is the Empress’s condition?”

“The danger of the Empress’s illness lies in how hot it is to continue. Now that the fever has subsided, the most difficult problem will be solved. What happens after that? You need to take a dose of medicine before you can observe.” Xu Duzhong said.

“Then hurry up and make the medicine.” Zhu Yijun said.

He got onto the bed and wrapped his arms around Wang Rong and her. Their hands were entangled under the blanket, so Zhu Yijun asked her, “Don’t you want to think about it now?

Wang Rong He’s strength was limited, and couldn’t speak very long words, so he could only lie in his embrace, using his head to rest on her chest.
