Chapter 73 A strange disease
Ling Chen came out of Yong'an Palace and returned to the study to meet Huo Jingyun and the others.
He went to Changxin Palace. He wanted to see her so much, he had never thought so. Lan Ling's piano sound during the day is really amazing.
Lan Ling didn't sleep, sitting there peeling walnuts.
"Why aren't the girls doing these tasks?" Ling Chen went straight into Lan Ling's room without letting the girls report.
She saw him come in and didn't get up, she just took a cup and poured him a cup of hot tea.
"Isn't the emperor supposed to stay with Concubine Yi today, she is ill."
"She's all right, I just want to see you now." He knocked over the walnut in her hand, grabbed her hand, and pulled her over to hug him.
"In Changxin Palace, call me by my name. I like to hear you call me by my name. Say, what else do you have that I don't know? Who did you learn your qin from? Why have you never seen you play it?"
"I don't usually like to play the piano. But I like to listen to it. I learned it from my master."
Ling Chen knew that playing the piano well was the concubine's magic weapon to keep the emperor, but Lan Ling had never played the piano for him. She is really stupid.
"You close your eyes," Lan Ling suddenly covered his eyes.
"What?"
"Okay, open your eyes." Ling Chen opened his eyes and saw that it was a plate of sugar walnuts.
"That's it, it's not like I haven't eaten it,"
"I made this myself! If you taste it, does it taste different?" Lan Ling squeezed a grain and stuffed it into his mouth.
Ling Chen tasted it, it was indeed fragrant and sweet, the taste was light, and there was no astringency.
"How did you make it? The smell is very strange." The emperor really thought it was delicious.
"I used honey and rock sugar! That's why it's sweet, fragrant and crunchy!"
A plate of candy walnuts, Lan Ling ate half of the plate by himself, and Ling Chen refused to let her eat the rest: "Didn't you give it to me? Why did you eat so much?"
She didn't eat it, but smiled slyly and snatched it from his mouth.
She never seemed to regard him as the emperor. Riding on him, tickling him, grabbing his things, but if he couldn't grab him, he moved his mouth to bite, and his little teeth bit his hand, but he didn't exert any force, and he didn't let go.
It was an experience he had never had before. His laughter overflowed his eyes and could be heard outside the yard.
Wen Heng's girl forsythia frowned, isn't the emperor the most favorite concubine Yi? Why are you laughing so loudly?
Li Xia saw Forsythia's face darkened, "The Emperor and Concubine Ling have already rested."
"I heard the emperor laugh just now, please let Sister Lixia inform me that Concubine Yi is not in good health, and the servants don't know what to do!" Forsythia sternly said.
Li Xia sighed. Concubine Yi is not something they can provoke.
Li Xia knocked on the door cautiously, "Niangniang, Concubine Yi's maid came to invite the emperor, saying that Concubine Yi was not in good health..."
Lan Ling hurriedly got off the emperor and straightened his hair. "I said you don't come over tonight."
"I'll take a look, wait for me." The emperor got out of bed, put on his coat, and went to Yongan Palace.
Wen Heng lay there sweating profusely. The cup hit the ground.
"What's wrong?" Ling Chen panicked. "Has it been passed on to the imperial doctor?" His voice was cold.
"Go back to the emperor, it's passed on, but the concubine is in severe pain, and the slaves really have no choice." Forsythia replied.
The imperial doctor had stumbled in. He took the pulse of Concubine Yi Gui, and he really couldn't see what illness this master had, but judging from the way she was sweating profusely and in pain, she was indeed seriously ill.
"Your Majesty, the old minister can't see what illness the noble concubine has!" The old imperial doctor was sweating profusely.
"Go away! Let the imperial physicians go to Yong'an Palace!" The emperor was furious.
"Lei Ze introduced a doctor who specializes in treating heart problems. I have already sent someone to invite him, and he is expected to arrive in three or two days." Ling Chen hugged Wen Heng.
He wanted Lan Ling to give Wen Heng a few pills to protect his heart, but he also thought that the pill that Lan Ling used to save his life was useless last time. Maybe Wen Heng's disease was special, and Lan Ling's medicine didn't work at all.
Ling Chen accompanied Wen Heng all night.
Lan Ling waited until Ling Chen was late at night and knew that he would not come back.
He lay down alone and hugged himself tightly.
Why does he have so many wives? Is it troublesome? Is there no other way to consolidate the country?
Lan Ling was groggy and fell asleep shortly after dawn.
Wen Heng's illness did not diminish at all, and Ling Chen went down to accompany her these past few days.
Everyone in the palace knew that the emperor favored Concubine Yi, and some people secretly said that the emperor loved Concubine Ling the most.
Huo Jinghong and Lei Ze came back early this morning to find out the origin of the assassins. The one who assassinated the emperor was sent by King Ning, while the one who assassinated the second prince of Fuli Kingdom was sent by Shang Dan Kingdom.
The emperor was a little surprised, and said after a while: "King Ning must have been in Shangdan during this time, not Beiyi. No wonder our people have been unable to find him!"
Ling Chen said slowly: "This assassin is definitely inseparable from King Ning, the eldest prince of Fuli Kingdom and the second prince are fighting for the heir, Shang Danguo deliberately assassinated the second prince in Daxing territory, it can not only blame Daxing, but also divide Daxing and Fuli Kingdom. At the same time, it can also cause turmoil in the rich country. I just donβt know if the prince is involved in it!β
Huo Jingyun said: "Your Majesty, this matter can be reported to the second prince. Find out what the second prince means."
"Alright. Keep an eye on them. I'm afraid King Ning will contact the surrounding small countries to attack Daxing!"
"Yes." Huo Jingyun and Lei Ze took the lead.
"Your Majesty, the old doctor has already been invited. When can I go to see the imperial concubine?" Lei Ze asked.
"Going right now!"
The emperor brought the old doctor to Yongan Palace.
The old doctor's surname is Chen, he is over sixty years old, has white hair, and is in good spirits.
"Heng'er, let this gentleman show you. He is a genius doctor who treats heart problems." He took her hand and looked at her eagerly.
Wen Heng nodded.
Doctor Chen took his pulse and looked at Wen Heng's eyes and palms.
He walked to the emperor and knelt down: "Your Majesty, it is difficult to remove the root cause of the concubine's heart disease, and the common people can only relieve it. The empress's disease is very strange and cannot be treated with ordinary methods."
"How do you say this?" the emperor asked.
"Niangniang's disease should be congenital, as long as it is in harmony with her sweetheart, and since the emperor and Niangniang are in the same heart, Niangniang's disease will be cured naturally, without the need for medication." Dr. Chen replied tremblingly.
"But I never got sick when I was young," Wen Heng questioned.
"That's because Niangniang was not emotional at that time. But there is another thing that can cure Niangniang's heart disease, that is, wearing a couple's token in her heart."
"What kind of couple's token? Can I create a couple's jade pendant?"
"It's useless, it's the kind of handed down, or something that has a chance, and can't be made by yourself. For example, the dragon and phoenix jade pendant from Chaoyun Continent, the Yin-Yang Mirror from Nanyang Continent, and the Azure Dragon Order and Qingyun Order from Beihuang Continent..."
"What did you say? Canglong Ling and Qingyun Ling?" The emperor stared at Doctor Chen with the same eyes as Moyu.
"Yes, the Canglong Ling is hidden in the Azure Dragon Sword, and the Qingyun Ling is hidden in the Qiushui Sword. It is a couple's token in the legend of the Northern Wilderness Continent."
