Quick Wear: After being conquered by the male protagonist, he said I was sick

Chapter 278: He is weak and cannot take care of himself (6)

Not long after the lotus seeds were given out, Jiang Que received a return gift from Su Qi, a bottle of ointment for his hand injury.

This medicine is not available in the palace. It must have been brought by Su Qi from the Prime Minister's Mansion. It has a mild medicinal property.

Jiang Que sat in the yard holding the small bottle and examining it carefully. His brows were relaxed, his fingers were white, and the corners of his lips were constantly raised, without any sign of injury.

In the end, the medicine bottle was not used but stored in the cabinet beside the bed.

The weather is too hot, drought has occurred in many areas, and local people have no food to eat.

All the ministers in the court could not think of any useful solution, and the capable and loyal ministers had long been angered by their original masters and resigned and returned home, leaving only these incompetent useless people.

Shangguan Yan was so busy that she was exhausted.

Although she was a time traveler, she was just an ordinary clerk before. She knew nothing about national affairs and could only figure it out bit by bit based on the history she had learned.

Shangguan Yan was busy allocating grain for disaster relief and had no intention of setting foot in the harem.

The imperial concubine knew that she was busy, so she kept quiet and just brought her soup and massaged her shoulders every day.

The harem is not allowed to interfere in government affairs. No matter how busy Shangguan Yan is, she can't be as busy as Su Qi.

As a return gift for the medicine that day, Yi Shijun brought fresh cakes early the next morning. His palace servants said that the cakes were made by Yi Shijun himself when he got up early in the morning.

Su Qi doesn't like to owe anyone anything.

After thinking it over, he took the bag of fresh lotus seeds that someone had peeled to the small kitchen and asked the nanny to teach him how to cook the lotus seed soup that had taken a long time.

The lotus seed soup was brought to him by Su Qi's personal palace attendant. Jiang Que held the bowl and looked at it for a long time. Finally, he picked up the spoon and stirred it before slowly putting it into his mouth.

The two of them kept returning gifts to each other.

Although they were all worthless little things, they were thoughtful and added a different kind of fun to Su Qi's boring life in the harem.

The maids in the harem had to greet the king and queen every day. Apart from seeing each other from a distance when they greeted each other, Jiang Que and Su Qi only interacted when they returned the greetings.

Jiang Que lived in Qingzhu Garden, a remote place with few visitors. Su Qi passed by there once by chance and saw the bamboo forest, which reminded him of the man in green clothes who was sitting in the pavilion under the lotus pond and playing the piano quietly that day.

Such a refreshing person is unforgettable.

"Queen?"

Su Qi's thoughts of admiring the bamboo forest were suddenly brought back by a slightly gentle voice. As soon as he turned his head, he saw the figure that had just appeared in his mind come into view.

He was wearing light green clothes, had long black hair, and had a handsome and flawless face. He was holding a bamboo tube in his hand and looking at him with a gentle expression.

Su Qi's heart skipped a beat when seeing those eyes.

"I didn't mean to pass by. Is this your residence?"

Su Qi stood in front of the bamboo forest and asked. Jiang Que held the bamboo tube in his hand and raised his lips slightly: "The place is a little remote, but it is quiet. The weather is hot. I just picked some morning dew from the lotus pond to make tea. If you don't mind, why don't you come in and sit for a while?"

The man had a gentle expression, and the bamboo tube in his hand contained what he called morning dew. It was such a big jar, it must have taken him a long time to collect it.

Su Qi originally wanted to refuse, but the man had already pushed open the door and entered the house, so Su Qi had no choice but to follow him in.

The decoration of Qingzhu Garden is somewhat different from that of other palaces. It used to be the favorite summer resort of the late emperor. However, due to its remote location, it had been abandoned after the late emperor's death. Later, it was allocated to him to live in after Yi Shijun entered the palace.

Su Qi looked around, then followed Jiang Que and sat at the stone table in front of the bamboo forest to watch him make tea.

The two were silent. After drinking a cup of tea, Jiang Que sat aside and began to play the piano. Perhaps he felt the sound of the piano was soothing, and Su Qi dozed off on the table.

Xiaofu, who was following Su Qi, wanted to wake him up, but Jiang Que raised his hand to let him go down, and personally carried Su Qi to his bed to rest.

Xiaofu stood at the door with a worried look on his face.

The Lord of Ceremonial Attendant and the Queen are both His Majesty's men, so there shouldn't be anything wrong with them being two men.
