Chapter 527 It’s time to meet the Emperor
"Your Highness?! Your humble servant, Wen Shichu from the Imperial Hospital, pays his respects to Your Highness."
When Wen Shichu saw Prince Guo, he was startled and bowed quickly.
Now that Prince Guo is back, he is afraid that he cannot even fulfill his humble wish of staying by Huan'er's side.
When Wen Shichu saw Prince Guo sitting beside the bed, his eyes dimmed, but he still made the request with a normal expression.
"Your Majesty, I would like to take the Majesty's pulse. Please move aside."
"Okay, then we have Dr. Lawrence."
Prince Guo stood up tactfully and stood aside.
Wen Shichu originally wanted to put his hand on Zhen Huan's pulse as usual, but seeing Prince Guo was present, he had to ask for help from Cui Jinxi who was standing by.
"Aunt Jinxi, I startled a horse on the way here and accidentally lost the handkerchief I was carrying. Could you lend me yours?"
Cui Jinxi, who had no chance to talk to Wen Shichu, hurriedly handed over the handkerchief and spoke worriedly.
"Doctor Wen, my mistress has been unable to eat because of the master's injury and delay in returning. This time, she has experienced a sudden change in the earth, which is even worse. I would like you to take a close look at her."
"okay, I get it."
Wen Shichu understood what Cui Jinxi meant. The Zhen family was on their way back and asked him to put the Zhen family first.
He and Huan'er have known each other for many years and have long regarded her family as his own, so he naturally knows what to do.
Wen Shichu placed a snow-white handkerchief on Zhen Huan's wrist, carefully feeling her pulse. The pulse throbbing from his fingertips made his eyelids twitch.
The pulse showed that Huan'er was awake.
She was pregnant with Prince Guo's child, and accepted the emperor's decree to grant her a name when she thought the prince had died young. This situation was difficult to resolve.
After confirming that Zhen Huan and her unborn child were safe and sound, Wen Shichu said to Prince Guo and Cui Jinxi.
"Your Majesty has been thinking too much and has experienced the excitement of the earth dragon turning over. She is already exhausted both physically and mentally and needs to rest."
"I have some tranquilizing medicine in my medicine box. Aunt Jinxi, please help Her Majesty use it later."
When Wen Shichu saw that Prince Guo's eyes were always on Zhen Huan, he couldn't help but remind him.
"Your Majesty, the Queen is still frowning in her coma, she needs to rest well..."
"Okay, let's all go out."
Prince Guo turned around first. Although he had been living away from home for some time, he also knew about Wen Shichu's evil intentions towards Zhen Huan.
If he had not been required to conceal the month of pregnancy of Zhen Huan's unborn child, Prince Guo would have castrated the imperial physician who coveted his woman long ago.
He turned it over lightly at this time, but it did not mean that he had forgotten about it.
When he finds a suitable opportunity in the future, he will definitely make Wen Shichu look good.
As soon as Prince Guo went out, he was called away by Jiyun, and Wen Shichu handed the medicine bag to Cui Jinxi.
"Aunt Jinxi, Concubine Zhen will have to return to the palace sooner or later. Please persuade her."
He glanced at Anqi Temple, whose wall was cracked, and said nothing more.
When the express horse rushed over, they saw that the courtyard where Huan'er lived had been severely damaged.
If we move back now, there will inevitably be danger.
He believed that Huan'er was a sensible person and would not get involved with the prince anymore even for the sake of her family.
"Okay, thank you Doctor Wen for what you did just now. Fate plays tricks on me, but I believe my master won't do anything rash."
The best solution for the current situation is for everyone to return to their respective positions.
Cui Jinxi will not let Zhen Huan do anything wrong.
Lying on the bed, Zhen Huan listened to Wen Shichu's footsteps becoming lighter and lighter, then she closed her eyes tiredly, allowing herself to temporarily escape from this chaotic scene.
As soon as Prince Guo, who was separated by a wall, stepped into the room, he was scolded in a low voice by Concubine Shu.
"Yunli! Kneel down!"
Prince Guo knew very well that he shouldn't run to see Zhen Huan when the dragon was turning over, so he knelt heavily on the ground.
"I'm sorry for being unfilial and causing Mother to worry."
"Although the earth dragon's resurgence is God's punishment for the emperor, it will also bring disaster to others. If you are accidentally injured, what will mother do?"
Concubine Shu covered her chest with her hands, tears welling up in her eyes.
"No matter how important the Zhen family is, how can it be compared to one of your fingers?"
"Mother just doesn't believe that none of those three can..."
Seeing that Concubine Shu was about to lose her composure, Prince Guo quickly interrupted her.
"Mother, be careful with your words!"
"I went to rescue them after careful consideration! If we want to succeed, we must rely on this Zhen family!"
"The Emperor has always been impartial in his work, but he repeatedly makes exceptions for Zhen, who is similar to Empress Chunyuan."
"Please rest assured, mother. I know what I am doing."
King Guo kowtowed three times to Concubine Shu, whose hair was mostly white.
"Yunli, get up quickly."
Concubine Shu helped the man up with all her strength.
"After hearing the news of your accident, the Emperor, in order to demonstrate the deep bond of brotherhood, adopted a son from one of his clansmen into your name, and temporarily conferred the title of Beizi on you."
"According to the news from below, the emperor intends to confer the title of Prince on Hongming again in three years."
"Now that you are back in the capital, it's time to pay your respects to the Emperor."
"Mother, your son..."
Concubine Shu waved her hand and gave orders to the air.
"Come! Send the prince to the garden to pay his respects to the emperor immediately!"
Seeing that her son still looked troubled, she comforted him softly.
"Yunli, my mother has experienced the earth dragon turning over, and will take Zhen to set up a tent in the open space in front. You don't need to worry about this place."
"You must not be indecisive at a critical moment, otherwise everything we do will be in vain."
"My son understands."
Concubine Shu watched Prince Guo ride away on his horse before she felt relieved and took Jiyun, Cui Jinxi and Baizhi to set up a large tent in the open space in front of the door.
When Zhen Huan woke up, it was already dark outside.
She called softly.
"Jinxi?"
"Master, you are awake."
Cui Jinxi came in holding a candlestick and reported happily.
"The Queen Mother and the servants have set up a tent in front of the temple. I will help you wash up. Shall we move over as soon as possible?"
Zhen Huan was silent for a moment, then uttered a soft "Okay."
Cui Jinxi was helping Zhen Huan to wash and dress as usual. Seeing that no one said a word, she changed her mind and whispered some advice.
"Master, since you decided to return to the palace, you are destined to give up many things, such as your heart. Whether it is towards the emperor or other people."
Cui Jinxi hardened her heart and continued.
"After the prince confirmed that you were alright, he went to the garden to seek an audience with the emperor. If all went well, he should have arrived by now."
Zhen Huan rolled her eyes and asked calmly.
"Aunt Jinxi, did the prince leave any words?"
"My Lord, the Prince has asked the Dowager Consort to look after you. I think he wants to wait until he reports to the Emperor that he's safe before returning to reminisce with you."
The Queen Dowager shared the same idea as hers, wanting her master to return to the palace as soon as possible to avoid staying outside the palace for too long and causing unnecessary trouble.
