Chapter 119 Heart-wrenching pain
Concubine Hua tentatively raised the teacup, brought it to her nose and sniffed it. It was indeed just as Wei Lin said, with a hint of bitterness.
"My lady, the temperature is just right now. If it gets colder, it will affect the taste."
Concubine Hua recalled how Wei Lin drank the tea just now. If it tasted bad, it would be impossible for Wei Lin's expression to be flawless while drinking the tea.
So he did as Wei Lin said and drank it all in one gulp.
Wei Lin looked at the beauty in front of him with a smile, but before he could be happy, he saw water spraying out of Concubine Hua's mouth. Before he could hide, he felt his face being washed clean in an instant.
The water droplets flowed down his neck and soaked the collar of his official uniform.
Songzhi and Zhou Ninghai, who were standing there in a daze, finally reacted and hurried forward.
"Doctor Wei, our queen didn't do it on purpose. I'll find you a clean towel to wipe it."
After Zhou Ninghai finished speaking, he hurried out to get a clean towel.
"and many more."
"Songzhi, hurry up and pour me some more clean water."
Concubine Hua didn't care about anything else. She grabbed the candied fruits on the table and stuffed them into her mouth. She ate six or seven of them and drank a glass of water that Songzhi had just poured before she stopped.
Zhou Ninghai looked at Wei Lin wiping his face with the sleeve of his official uniform, "Madam, this~"
Before Concubine Hua could open her mouth to attack, Wei Lin angrily shook his sleeves after wiping his face.
"What is your Majesty doing? Are you insulting me?"
Concubine Hua was already very angry and was about to ask Wei Lin why he lied to her just now, when she saw Wei Lin stand up and question her.
In an instant, the words that Concubine Hua wanted to ask were stuck in her mouth, and her momentum suddenly weakened.
"I didn't mean to do that. It was you who teased me first."
Wei Lin was confused, "When did this humble official tease the Majesty?"
"That tea is obviously very bitter, several times more bitter than the medicine you usually prescribe for me, and you still say that the tea soup tastes sweet."
"I did not lie to you. I did not taste the bitterness just now. Maybe there is something wrong with my taste buds, or my taste buds are not sensitive enough."
"My lady, can I drink all the tea left in the teapot?"
Without waiting for Concubine Hua to speak, Wei Lin did not use his sleeves to cover his mouth this time. He directly picked up the teapot and began to pour it half an inch above his mouth until not even a drop of tea could come out, then he put the teapot down.
The three people in the hall stared at Wei Lin's expression and saw that his face was still calm, but his brows were furrowed.
"Wei Lin, are you okay?" Concubine Hua asked.
Wei Lin bowed to Concubine Hua and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty. I have been so busy lately that I have neglected myself. If Your Majesty had not said that the tea was a little bitter, I am afraid I would not have noticed that there was something wrong with my taste buds."
Concubine Hua asked anxiously, "Is Doctor Wei seriously ill? Can he not taste any bitterness at all?"
"I couldn't taste it at first, but maybe I drank too much, so I tasted a little bitterness, but it wasn't obvious."
Wei Lin picked up the new prescription he had written earlier and pushed it towards Concubine Hua. "Your Majesty, this is a new prescription. Your Majesty's body no longer needs acupuncture. Just follow the prescription on this list. I'm leaving now. I have to hurry back to get some medicine for myself. I won't stay for long."
Nian Shilan looked at Wei Lin's hurriedly leaving back, a trace of worry flashed across her eyes, and then quickly disappeared.
Wei Lin took out three pieces of White Rabbit milk candies directly from his sleeve and put them in his mouth at once.
[It’s so bitter, so bitter. How many tea leaves and lotus seeds are there in this? Why do I feel like I’m emitting bitterness from the inside out?]
[Daddy, are you interested in Aunt Hua? ]
[Nonsense! I was just teasing her and asking her to make me suffer.]
[Then Daddy could have just poured the three cups of tea directly into the space like he did at the beginning, why did he choose to drink all the remaining tea into his stomach in the end. ]
[As for your father, I am a real man, how could I really bully others? Since she wants to play a trick on me, I will drink it. ]
【Why didn’t you drink before? 】
【It’s fun when there’s give and take. 】
[Why didn't Daddy let Aunt Hua know that you are also afraid of hardship. ]
[What do you know, little brat? Don’t you think your father has any dignity?]
As Wei Lin was walking, he passed by a rockery, turned directly in, and opened his medicine box impatiently.
[It’s a cell phone. It’s a cell phone. ]
Wei Lin checked his phone and found that it was solar powered.
[Tongtong, why is there only games in this phone and no communication function? ]
【Auntie He said, let you be contented and happy. 】
[Ever since Noble Lady Fucha gave birth safely, she has been producing more and more goodies. The drone we retrieved from the bamboo forest this morning was really cool. The things produced by the system are really different.]
[Auntie He said that if you want, she can give you one. ]
[It's useless for me to have that thing, and I don't have those little stories that I have to tell. ]
Wei Lin directly put the phone into the space and left happily.
Shoukang Palace
"My Lady, you are finally awake. How do you feel? Let me help you take the medicine."
The Queen Mother pushed away the medicine bowl that Zhu Xi was holding and said, "I don't want to eat it."
"Has the Emperor been here?"
"The Emperor came yesterday."
"Did you say anything? How will you deal with Concubine He?"
"If your majesty doesn't want to take the medicine, let's eat something first."
The Queen Mother's face darkened, "Zhu Xi, when did you start pretending to obey but secretly disobeying?"
"My lady, I dare not. I am afraid that you will get anxious and angry."
"Get up. It's been so many years. How could I not know what you're thinking? Tell me what's going on."
"Your Highness, yesterday the Imperial Physician Wen from the Imperial Hospital said that you were fine, you just fainted due to overthinking, and then the Emperor stood there for a while and then left, and he did not do anything to Concubine He."
"Wen Shichu? Is Zhen still alive?"
"My lady, I'm still alive."
"I don't know how Concubine He could charm the emperor. An old woman who has been with the emperor for twenty years can actually have such a position in the emperor's heart. Have someone keep a close eye on her. I always feel that Concubine He has an evil nature."
"Then keep an eye on Zhen. She looks like such a good-looking girl, but I didn't expect her to be such a loser. Go contact the clan and find out how the child Ulanala Bairou is being trained. It's time to let her see the light of day."
"My lady, I'm afraid the clan can't take care of itself now."
"what happened?"
Sun Zhuxi took a few pages of paper from the table and handed them to the Queen Mother.
"absurd!"
"Where did this come from?"
"It fell in the courtyard of our Shoukang Palace."
"Nothing, it's all nonsense. Why would the clan be so busy taking care of themselves?"
"Your Majesty, we don't just have this stuff. I heard that it's scattered all over the capital. In addition to the common people, everyone in the imperial harem, including the emperor, knows about it."
