Dressed as a villain's stepmother, I use spiritual springs to raise cubs

From then on, Xia Bai'an no longer listened to the corner, but came to Kang Heng to inquire.

"Is the prince in good health recently?"

"Is your lord's food good these days?"

"The prince has lived in the inn for a long time, but is there anything wrong that needs to be taken care of?"

Xia Bai Anzuo was just asking similar questions, but every time she came here quietly in disguise, or in black clothes in the cold wind at night, her nose was red from the cold, but it was raw white, wrapped in a In the dark shadows, Kang Heng who got up at night was quite frightened.

However, Kang Heng also responded well to these matters.

It's just that seeing her frightening appearance at night, I can't help saying: "If the doctor Xia has nothing important to do, there is no need to come so diligently. It is really dangerous to walk alone at night."

"Thank you, Mr. Kang Heng, for your reminder, but you still have to ask about these things. Since the prince is fine, I will leave first and leave."

She rubbed the tip of her red nose, and ran to the alley to look for Wu Yue, and the two went back shoulder to shoulder.

Kang Heng really didn't understand the reason why she was so persistent, but according to Li Chen's instructions, he would report when she came.

Kang Heng woke up Li Chen and told him what he said just now.

Li Chen clutched his aching forehead, but he was not at all unhappy, he just said: "Does she wear a lot?"

"It seems that there are quite a lot. She is afraid of the cold." Kang Heng frowned slightly, "But my lord, does it have anything to do with what she wants to do?"

Li Chen was silent.

He thought, maybe he was woken up suddenly and asked such a casual question because he was unconscious, so he waved his hand to indicate that Kang Heng could go back.

……

The next day was the day when Xia Bai'an was ordered to enter the palace to ask for the Empress Dowager's pulse.

There is no precedent for a female imperial physician in the palace. The maids in the embroidery workshop are busy with the palace for the new year, and have no time to take care of her official uniform. She just asked for a set of ordinary imperial physician's official uniform, and stuffed a lot of clothes into it , and went to the palace a little bulging.

She was carrying a small medicine box, followed by the little eunuch leading the way.

The little eunuch saw that she was wearing strange clothes, so he couldn't help but be a little contemptuous: "Prince Xia wears the clothes of an imperial doctor like this, it's better to follow the Queen Mother's order and enter the palace in her own clothes first."

Xia Bai'an was helpless.

She wanted to enter the palace in her own clothes.

But every time she enters the palace to ask for pulse, the concubine De Gui of the Millennium Palace always finds herself in trouble, wearing too many clothes, and in the end she only gets dirty clothes, which are hard to wash when she goes back.

On the other hand, official uniforms are good, like school uniforms, they are dirt-resistant and durable.

The little eunuch reminded again: "The emperor is talking to the empress dowager in the palace of the empress dowager, you should keep your eyes open and don't make trouble in front of the emperor, do you understand?"

"Ah."

Xia Bai'an nodded perfunctorily, but what she was thinking in her heart was, if the emperor was here, how would she inform the Queen Mother about An Wang Lichen's recent situation?

She followed the little eunuch to the Empress Dowager's Hall in a dreamy way. She was ordered to enter alone, and just as she opened the door, she heard a word from the emperor.

"King An has indeed kept himself safe for the past few years, but who knows what will happen tomorrow?"

Hearing the sound of the door being pushed open, the emperor's eyes suddenly swept over sharply.

Sensing the hostility, Xia Bai'an tilted his body and pretended to drop the medicine box, and hurriedly squatted down to clean it up, and the little eunuch behind also rushed in: "Why can't Doctor Xia even carry the medicine box steadily, and even made a mistake in front of the emperor? plead guilty!"

"I made a mistake, I accidentally tripped when I entered the door."

Xia Bai'an hurriedly packed his things.

The emperor did not get angry, but took a deep look at her, raised his hand, and sent them out again.

The little eunuch was so angry that he whispered in Xia Bai'an's ear: "Didn't I tell you before that the emperor was inside! I don't know how to be careful when doing things. If you disturb the emperor, do you still think about it!"

Xia Bai'an was annoyed by what was said, so he asked coldly: "If you don't lose the medicine box and listen to the words of the emperor and the empress dowager, then you will really lose your head."

The little eunuch was stunned for a moment before he realized it.

It turned out that Xia Bai'an went in at the wrong time.

If nothing happened, but if he heard something that shouldn't be heard, both he and Xia Bai'an would have to move their heads away.

Only then did he stop rambling, and only took Xia Bai'an to the side to wait.

After a while, the emperor left.Only then did the little eunuch dare to let Xia Bai'an in.

Xia Bai'an stepped into the house, and the nuns in the corner had already retreated, and by the way, let the palace servants and little eunuchs outside temporarily leave.

Xia Bai'an heard it clearly, half knelt beside the bed to feel the Queen Mother's pulse, and lowered his voice, telling Li Chen's recent situation one by one.

The Empress Dowager listened carefully to the last word before gently holding Xia Bai'an's hand.

"Can he stay in the inn peacefully?"

"Never took a step. Moreover, the prince and the people he brought didn't pay attention to the few guards sent by the emperor. They just ate and read every day. Only once on the way, they sent someone out to order meals from other restaurants. There are also people from the emperor following." Xia Bai'an nodded.

The Empress Dowager frowned deeply, with anger coming from it.

"Sure enough, the emperor... went to the restaurant to buy some food and was followed by people. No wonder he came to me today to test it out. I'm afraid King An would open a window, and he would be suspicious several times!"

"..."

Xia Bai'an didn't dare to speak easily.

After all, in her heart, King An had already made preparations and placed so many pawns in the capital. The wolf's ambition must not be a good thing.

If it weren't for the fact that she needed the protection of the Queen Mother in the harem, so that she could come and go safely, and not always be made things difficult by other concubines and female relatives, she would not bother to take care of King An's affairs.

After a long time, the Empress Dowager finally calmed down and looked at her: "I am afraid that King An will stay in the capital for several months. When he is outside the palace, you should take care of him."

"Yes." Xia Bai'an nodded, and after feeling her pulse, he began to tidy up the medicine box.

The queen mother said again: "New Year's Eve palace banquet, you come to the palace to be on duty."

Xia Bai'an was slightly taken aback: "Could it be that the Empress Dowager is afraid that King An might be..."

The queen mother looked sideways: "The emperor's temperament has become more and more irritable in recent days."

Xia Bai'an knew in his heart, with the speed with which the emperor dealt with concubines before, and the fact that he raised his son, who knows if he would really have the courage to do something at the banquet, so she had no choice but to agree.

It's just that she has a grudge in her heart. It's New Year's Eve, and she still wants to go home early to spend it with the children.

Moreover, the palace banquet on New Year's Eve was at night. If she came to take a shift, she might have to wait until noon on the first day of the new year to go back to accompany the children.

She left the Empress Dowager's Hall with a sigh, and just as she went out, she saw the Baozhu palace maid beside Concubine Degui waiting in front of the door. Seeing her coming out, she stepped forward with a smile: "Concubine Degui, please go over and ask for your pulse."

Xia Bai'an raised his eyebrows: "Concubine Degui feels unwell every day, do you want to report to the emperor?"
