[Qing Chuan] Yongzheng's embarrassing empress

Sadness always comes to an end, it doesn't disappear, it's just that the sun rises at sunset, the moon wanes and the moon is full, manpower can't change it, we can only bear it silently and hide our emotions.

After everything was cleared up, Shuwan returned to the palace, her whole body became lazy, no matter what she did, she couldn't get excited.

She handed over the palace affairs to Tana, and hid herself in Yongshou Palace.

Tana now is different from when she first got married. She has experienced a lot, has become more mature, and is more comfortable in doing things.

It stands to reason that Tana cannot be troubled by a little palace work, but she always holds the child and brings the palace work to Yonghe Palace to ask Shuwan for advice.

Shuwan felt helpless every time, "You can decide this little thing yourself, you don't need to ask me at all."

Tana just laughed and didn't speak.She didn't intend to come here to ask for advice, she was looking for an opportunity to let Shuwan talk more.If no one is looking for something to talk about, Shuwan can hold back without speaking for a day.

The emperor and the children were very worried about her, for fear that she would get sick from boredom.

The emperor tried his best to reduce the time for dealing with government affairs and spend as much time with Shuwan as possible.

In the past few years, people of the older generation have passed away slowly, and people of the same generation are gradually showing signs of aging. The departure of the empress dowager and mother-in-law is not only unbearable for Shuwan, but also for the emperor.

Life is short, and they seem to have a lot of things to do, and they are already in their twilight years.

Shuwan persuaded the emperor not to worry about her, "I'm fine, I don't need you to accompany me, you are busy with your work, don't delay the business because of me."

The emperor touched her face, "You look like this, how can I be busy with business?"

Shuwan smiled slightly, "You, what a fuss, I'm just not in a good mood recently, I'll be fine after a while."

The emperor shook his head, expressing his disbelief, "Forget it! You will be brave!"

These days Shuwan no longer practices martial arts, doesn't like to talk, doesn't like to eat, if the emperor doesn't pull her, she won't go out.Seeing that Shuwan has lost weight twice, how can the emperor still care about government affairs?

He called Su Peisheng to come in. Su Peisheng was carrying a tray with a small box on it.

The emperor took the box and waved his hand to let Su Peisheng go down.

He said to Shuwan: "There are a few pills in here..."

Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Shuwan took the box and took out one and threw it into her mouth.

"You!" The emperor's eyes widened, "You don't even ask what it is! Can medicine be taken indiscriminately?"

Shuwan looked at him blankly, "You handed this to me, and you won't harm me, so why don't I dare to eat it?"

Shuwan poured a glass of water and gulped it down, "Tsk, which imperial physician prepared this medicine? It's really unpalatable!"

The emperor's eyes faltered for a moment, "Good medicine tastes bitter, how can it be delicious? This is a tonic, nourishing qi and blood. Take one pill every day, and your spirit will improve."

Shuwan nodded and agreed, "Well, I remember."

In the next few days, Shuwan took the medicine on time every day, and the emperor also tried to accompany her as much as possible, often taking her out for a walk.

It may be that outdoor activities can make people feel better, or it may be that the tonic has played a role. Shuwan feels energetic and seems to have endless energy all over her body.

Before Tana came to her with palace affairs, Shuwan came to the door directly and dealt with all the affairs of the day.

After taking care of today's trivial matters, Shuwan still feels that it is not enough.

"I have taken tonics for the past few days, and I feel that my body has endless strength, but the strength of this medicine is a bit too strong. At night, I am still a little hyperactive and can't sleep!"

Tana frowned, "Emperor Niang, although the tonic is good, it is also a medicine. It is said that the medicine is three-point poisonous. Now the Empress is fine, so stop the medicine for a while!"

Shuwan nodded, "I thought the same way, I didn't take any more yesterday. I don't know which imperial physician prepared this medicine, I think it's very good, I'll ask the emperor later, let this imperial physician feel the pulse for you all, Let him prescribe medicine for you according to your physique."

Tana smiled and said, "Er Niang still hurts us! I shouldn't need to take medicine. I'm rarely angry, and I don't bother myself. I'm pampered and healthy in the palace. I should take some tonics from Kangbao. , he has more things to worry about than me, so he should make up for it."

"Well, let's see what the imperial physician says."

Tana poured a cup of tea for Shuwan, and there was one thing she didn't know whether to say or not.

Shuwan knew this daughter-in-law quite well, but she felt something was wrong when she saw Tana's expression.

"What's the matter? Are you worried?"

Tana panicked and hurriedly shook her head in denial.

Shuwan sighed: "You have been married for so many years, and I still don't know you? You have troubles in your heart, and you are too embarrassed to tell them, right? Our mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have been here for so many years, you just have to speak up boldly if you have something to say."

Tana bit her lip and said with determination: "Emiang, I also heard about one thing. I don't know if it's accurate. I heard that the emperor has placed a person in the northwest corner of the palace, and he will go there every now and then."

"Northwest corner of the palace?"

Tana nodded, "A small palace room near the palace wall."

Shuwan frowned, her face full of displeasure.

Tana regretted that she was talking too much. She also knew about this by accident. It seems that the emperor deliberately kept it from the harem.She didn't say that she felt uncomfortable, but Empress Huang had a deep affection for Huang Ama, and Huang Ama raised people in the palace, which was really infuriating.

But she was afraid that there might be some misunderstanding. If Huang Ama and Huang Erniang quarreled because of her talkativeness, it would be her fault.

Tana hurriedly made amends, "Don't be angry, Queen Mother, I think Huang Ama must have something to hide. You see that you are in a bad mood these days, and Huang Ama is the most anxious in the whole palace.

He asked us juniors to accompany you often, and specially transplanted many exotic flowers and plants in your Yongshou Palace for you to enjoy. Huang Ama, who is so diligent and loving, stopped several times for you...

All the things that Huang Ama has done for you are not fake, so don't think about the bad. "

Shuwan smiled, "Okay! Don't persuade me! We have been husband and wife for so many years, and I wouldn't doubt him because of this. Thanks to you telling me about this, otherwise I would still be kept in the dark by him! Don't worry , we won't quarrel."

Tana let out a long breath, feeling a little more at ease.

Shuwan bids farewell to Tana, she happens to have nothing to do, why not find out who is the emperor's "Golden House Cangjiao".

The imperial palace is very large and has many rooms, but there are a lot of eunuchs and court ladies here, and there are too many eyes and ears, so it is difficult to hide things.

Shuwan approached Chun'er and asked her if she knew who lived in the northwest corner.

Chun'er squeaked, and didn't say a word for a long time.

"I advise you to tell the truth immediately." Shuwan said, "I don't like to be in charge these days, but I am not deaf and blind. I know everything about Xia'er in the south of the Yangtze River. Clear. You must be helping the emperor hide it from me!"

Chun'er was so frightened that she plopped and knelt on the ground, "Queen empress, calm down! The emperor has nothing to do, and so does the servant. You are in a bad mood these days, you eat less, and you don't like to joke anymore. The emperor is very worried. .

You may not be aware that the emperor is not in good health these days, his energy is not as good as before, his ears are often buzzing, sometimes his hands and feet are numb, and he feels dizzy when he gets up quickly.

The imperial physician took the pulse and prescribed medicine, saying that it was due to insufficient energy and blood, so he could only recuperate slowly.These symptoms are not serious illnesses. People will always feel uncomfortable in one way or another as they get older.The emperor has been taking medicine secretly without telling you, but the effect is not good.The emperor is impatient, and he is also worried about you. He has been taking medicine for half a month but he is not getting better, so he refuses to take it. "

Shuwan frowned, "The emperor refuses to take medicine, why didn't you tell me?"

"The emperor forbids the servants to say that the servants hinted at you, you don't care about anything, and you didn't hear it at all."

Shuwan secretly scolded herself for being careless, hating herself for hurting the spring and autumn like a young lady, not even noticing the state of the person next to her pillow.

"What does this have to do with the people in the northwest corner?" Shuwan asked.

"The man who lives in the northwest corner is a Taoist priest. It is said that he is practicing in Xianshan and he is over 100 years old this year. His medical skills are excellent, even better than the imperial physicians in the palace.

The emperor spent a lot of money to invite him to treat his illness. Empress, you have always disliked monks and Taoists.You were already in a bad mood, the emperor was afraid that you would be angry if you found out, so he kept it from you. "

Shuwan is really unhappy, she has no objection to monks and priests, but in this era, there are many scammers pretending to be monks and priests to deceive.

When people reach a certain age, they will be superstitious about health care products. The emperor once expressed his appreciation for the alchemy skills of Taoist priests. How dare Shuwan let him get in touch with Taoist priests!

"Has the emperor taken the Taoist medicine? How effective is it?"

Chun'er nodded again and again, "The Taoist priest is really capable, and the emperor got better after taking his medicine. By the way, Empress, you have also taken the medicine that the Taoist priest prepared, which is the pills in the box next to your bed. You take it You feel refreshed, and your energy is different!"

Shuwan swallowed, with a strange expression.

"No wonder, no wonder! I asked which imperial physician prepared the emperor's medicine, but he always refused to tell me!"

When Shuwan thought that the pills were prepared by the imperial doctor, she praised the tonic whenever she met, but now that she knew it was prepared by a Taoist priest, Shuwan just wanted to lick her throat and vomit the medicine, which is very double standard.

Chun'er saw that Shuwan's expression was not right, she quickly asked: "Empress Empress, what's wrong with you?"

Shuwan waved her hand, "It's okay, I'm just a little scared."

I am afraid that the pills made by the Taoist priests will exceed the standard of heavy metals...

Seeing Shuwan's distorted expression, Chun'er thought she was uncomfortable.The loyal court lady hurriedly fetched the pills and asked Shuwan to take one.

"What's wrong with you? Take a pill first to deal with the emergency! This servant is going to invite the elder here."

"Immortal Elder?" This title sounded like a liar, Shuwan pushed the pill aside, "No need! I don't feel bad, I don't need to take medicine, and I don't need to invite monks or priests."

Chun'er was full of anxiety, "You are avoiding medical treatment, you are prejudiced, that Taoist priest is very good, and his medical skills are good, you always praised him for his medicine before!"

"No, I've changed now! Don't mention Taoist priests anymore. If you mention me again, I'm afraid I will build a foundation!"

At this time, the emperor came back, and he asked, "What pearls? What are you master and servant talking about?"

Shuwan looked at him complicatedly, "We're talking about your treasure house."

The emperor blushed, "You know it all! If you know it, don't talk nonsense, that's an old Taoist priest, what kind of coquettish is he?"

Seeing the medicine on the table, he quickly asked Shuwan, "What's wrong with you? Is there something wrong?"

Shuwan: "I'm fine everywhere, but I'm not feeling well."

Shuwan is afraid!She felt that she was really going around the gate of hell. If the Taoist master refines the elixir one day, the husband and wife will become a pair of hard mandarin ducks with excessive heavy metals, the kind whose bodies are so hard that they won't rot.
