Chronicles of the Modern Empress Dowager

Chapter 391: Storm is coming

"The emperor still has a bad appetite these days. He only drank half a bowl of milk when he woke up early, so he would not eat anything else." Li Wei looked worried.

The Princess Jinggui hurriedly said, "It seems that I still have to be hungry for a few days, maybe it will be fine."

"Let the emperor go hungry? No, no. No nutrition can keep up where there is strength to fight against the disease, physical strength will only become weaker and weaker, no matter what, you have to eat something."

Li Wei was talking about his own opinions, and there is still a big difference in concept between healing in this era and healing in that era.

Some of the fresh words that came out of Li Wei's mouth, such as the Queen Mother, didn't quite understand them. They all felt that they seemed to be a little different from the former queen mother, but they couldn't tell the difference.

Li Wei looked at Taifei Qi, and she asked with a faint smile: "Taifei Qi has been getting tougher recently."

Then Tai Fei Qi laughed and said, "Perhaps the weather is getting warmer gradually, and the whole person feels alive again. But Mrs. Zeng said that if you want to cut the root, you can't stop the medicine."

"If you want to heal, the roots must be cut. The toffee is taking care of it slowly."

Concubine Dun looked at Li Wei’s face carefully, and said distressedly: “You’ve lost weight when you see the queen mother in the past few days. There are personal eunuchs around the emperor, maids, and nurses, and there are not many people serving them. You don’t have to do everything yourself. You look a little bit worse."

Li Wei covered his face and said, "Do you really look bad?"

Even Princess Qi said: "Yes, her face is sallow and her eyes are a little bit blue."

In the past few days, Fuguang had to wake up several times in the middle of the night, and Li Wei didn't dare to sleep too well, and there was no time to make up for sleep during the day, so the sleep was seriously insufficient. At this time, I only felt my eyes dry, and then I yawned.

Everyone advised Li Wei to take care of his body and pay attention to rest and recuperation. Li smiled and nodded. Now that Fu Guang is ill, she is always a little worried to let her take care of the emperor. Before the eldest sister died, she took her hand and solemnly entrusted Fu Guang to her. As an adoptive mother, she has to fulfill her responsibilities and devote herself to raising Fuguang to adulthood. She can finally let go of her hands when he takes office and when he gets married.

After a few people spoke for a while, a court lady came to report: "Queen dowager, the emperor is awake."

Li Wei got up and went to the room over there, and the concubines followed.

Fu Guang fell asleep, but he was sweaty after waking up. Li Wei asked people to take clothes to change the sweaty clothes, and combed the hair with a comb.

Everyone saw that Fuguang was slightly better than the previous two days, and they were relieved. They sat in front of them for a while and then left one after another.

Concubine Qi sat on her shoulders and returned to Xukun Palace. The Princess of Shu was about to write. Hearing that the concubine was back, she hurriedly put down her pen and went out.

Concubine Qi returned to the sleeping hall, and Princess Shu stepped forward and held her back, and said with a smile: "Mother concubine has worked **** this journey."

"Where is the hard work. Where is the prince?"

"He just went out."

"Are you out of the palace again?"

Princess Shu nodded, and Princess Qi sighed, "Tell him not to run outside all the time, so I won't listen. I'll take a rest and see me when he comes back."

Princess Shu agreed, and Princess Shu went back to the bedroom and planned to lie down for a while. Princess Shu still went back to the study to study writing.

Half an hour later, there was a violent wind outside, and soon the clouds were overcast, and soon the rain fell. It only got warmer and it got cold again within a few days.

The rain is getting bigger and bigger, but the sky is completely dark. Zhao Fushou has not returned yet. Princess Shu was a little worried, and sent someone to the front to wait, but was afraid that Yao Fushou would not be able to return after the palace gate. Princess Qi was also very worried, afraid that something would happen to Fushou outside.

It was not until the start of the change that Zhao Fushou came back. But I saw him wearing a hat and robes, like a fisherman. Both the hat and the fur clothes were taken off on the porch. When he entered the house, he was still wearing a gray feather cloak. When he entered the house, he pulled off the belt, revealing an apricot-white brocade satin gown inside.

Princess Shu walked out in a hurry, and said to King Shu: "The prince is back, but the mother and concubine worry about the whole afternoon."

King Shu hurriedly asked: "Is there anything in the palace?"

Princess Shu said: "It's okay, but the concubine may have something to discuss with you. You quickly follow me to see the concubine."

The couple turned the screen hand in hand and went out from the back door, and then walked along the corridor to Princess Qi's bedroom.

When he arrived, the king of Shu respectfully saluted Princess Qi: "The son is back."

"You still know that when you come back, you have forgotten what I told you in the past, haven't you?"

"Erchen worried the mother and concubine, right?

"You didn't encounter any obstacles when you came back?"

"Everything is going smooth."

"That's good, have you used the rice? I have people keep it for you."

Zhao Fushou said: "Back to the mother and concubine, the son has eaten."

Princess Shu clearly heard the faint scent of alcohol on Zhao Fushou's body, frowned, and asked anxiously: "Where is the prince drinking?"

"I couldn't help but had a drink."

After hearing this, Princess Qi, who was sitting on it, couldn't help but exasperated: "Did you still drink alcohol while you are in the dress? If you let people know, you can't eat and walk around. Why don't you control it?"

"Don't worry about your mother and concubine, your children know the severity and will never do it again."

Seeing that her son was sincere, she couldn't say anything more. Besides, there were more important things to discuss, so she didn't have to worry about little things.

She said to her daughter-in-law: "Hui'er, let's go down first, and I will have a word with Fushou. Let all the serving people retreat to the corridor. No one is allowed to come in."

Concubine Shu's heart trembled, and the big event was coming. She constricted and said yes.

After leaving the concubine Shu, there were only mother and child left in the room, accompanied by the leaping candlelight on the candlestick.

Concubine Qi lowered her voice and asked her son: "You are running outside these days, are you done with the Wen family and Gu family?"

Fushou said: "Naturally, these two families have nothing to say, but the pressure from the emperor's uncle is so tight that we have not much time left.

Taifei Qi said: "Time waits for no one, and it can't be done with ruthless hands. It can't be done. It must not be delayed any longer. We should discuss it."

Taifei Qi has made up her mind since her son showed her determination. The reason why the prince failed was because of stupidity. They have also learned their lessons, summed up their experience, and know that they can do things well. They also hired a partner, and the royal concubine was also on their side. They are not alone.

"The third child, this time we are breaking the boat and fighting the last battle. Only success cannot fail."

"The mother and concubine can rest assured that the children will be fully prepared and will never allow a miss."
