Chapter 117 The Emperor is Unwell, Yi Huan Sends Off Deer Blood Wine
"Shu Fei. Shu Fei."
On the second day after Shu Fei came out of confinement, everyone went to Yikun Palace to pay respects to Ruyi. Everyone was talking to Shu Fei. She was lost in thought.
Ruyi was calling her.
If it weren't for Empress Ruyi's identity, Shu Fei really didn't want to come here.
Seeing Ruyi trying to please her, Shu Fei did not give her a good look.
"What did the Queen say? I didn't hear it."
Shu Fei swung the rose-red handkerchief in her hand in annoyance.
This is her least favorite color.
Normally, she likes plain colors the most. Such bright colors. It's hard to like them even if you pretend to like them.
Especially the pattern of mandarin ducks playing in the water embroidered on the handkerchief reminded Shu Fei of the embarrassment of last night.
The emperor treated Shu Fei very well during her confinement. He would visit her and the Tenth Prince every three to five days. Last night, when he heard that the Jingshifang had hung up her green card, the emperor turned over her green card.
This kind of favor was what Shu Fei had longed for.
With the emperor's love and the Tenth Prince, the fruit of her love with the emperor, she should have everything she wanted.
But unfortunately, something went wrong.
"He Yi, my figure hasn't changed, has it?"
"The imperial physician said that although my uterus is damaged and I can no longer get pregnant, I can still serve the emperor, right?"
"Is my makeup appropriate? Is it too heavy?"
Before the emperor came, Shu Fei wanted to take a magnifying glass to check everything carefully to ensure that she was in the best condition to welcome the emperor's arrival.
She felt a little relieved when she heard He Yi say that her figure was better than before she gave birth to the Tenth Prince, and that the imperial physician said she could serve the emperor and that her makeup was just right.
Waiting quietly for the emperor's arrival in Chuxiu Palace.
The so-called separation is better than a new marriage.
Although Shufei and the emperor often met, the emperor had not touched Shufei for more than half a year since she became pregnant.
The emperor was delighted to see Shufei dressing up carefully and waiting for him obediently.
Not long after entering Chuxiu Palace, he asked people to turn off the lights.
Relying on familiar memories, the emperor found her.
They are familiar with each other and have a tacit understanding.
In the midst of lingering sorrow, the emperor murmured softly:
"Yihuan. I miss you so much."
When the love reached its peak, the emperor, infatuated with it, expressed his love to Yihuan in her ear.
Facing such familiar yet strange expectations, Yihuan suppressed the thousands of words in her heart that she wanted to respond to the emperor, and cooperated with the emperor more attentively and silently.
The emperor knew the tacit understanding between lovers and was intoxicated.
The emperor and Yihuan were both prepared.
But a sudden feeling of powerlessness made the emperor break out in a cold sweat.
Time seemed to freeze, everything was still, and the love that was in the room just now faded away quietly and quickly.
Yihuan just stood there in a daze, not daring to move.
He couldn't say a word to appease the emperor.
Beads of sweat broke out on the emperor's forehead, and it was unclear whether it was because of the heat or because of panic.
He is already over forty years old this year.
Could it be...
With the help of the lights outside, the emperor could suddenly see clearly Yihuan's new dark purple and pink mattress and quilt.
"Why did you change to these colors that you never like?"
“It’s so unfamiliar.”
Shu Fei was confused but soon felt ashamed.
Whenever she saw those plain colors now, she would always think of the lost bellyband and her face would always blush.
"Forget it, let's put it there."
The emperor said this to Yihuan casually, then left her and went to sleep alone.
Yihuan had been in the palace for many years, and this was the first time she had encountered such a thing.
Thinking back to what happened just now, the emperor suddenly did that when he touched her. The emperor even mentioned her new mattress.
Was the emperor not used to his damaged body, or was he bothered by the thought of the straw-colored bellyband?
Yihuan tossed and turned all night but didn't get an answer.
"I'm telling you to wait on the emperor as soon as you get out of confinement. If you feel uncomfortable, tell me immediately."
"I see you don't look well."
Yihuan was feeling embarrassed about sleeping with the emperor, but Ruyi brought up the matter again.
Yi Huan felt upset and said coldly:
"Thank you for your concern, Queen. I am fine, so please don't worry about me."
Yihuan's tone was full of impoliteness and she didn't even bother to look at Ruyi while speaking. Seeing this, Rong Pei wanted to give Yihuan some advice.
"Concubine Shu..."
"Rong Pei."
Rong Pei was unable to say what she wanted to say and was stopped by Ruyi.
In Ruyi's eyes, Yihuan was just still angry with her. Ruyi thought it was harmless.
"Shu Fei's complexion is not very good. It is probably because she has just come out of confinement.
But it's not a big deal. If Shu Fei feels uncomfortable, she can take some tonics, such as ginseng, deer antler, or deer blood wine.
Meiyuan has sent a lot of fresh deer antlers and deer blood wine these days. This is the season for autumn tonic. Shu Fei should take care of herself. "
Yanwan reminded Yihuan casually.
Everyone heard Yanwan's reminder, but no one paid much attention to it.
The palace has always had the habit of using these tonics. This autumn is indeed a season for nourishment, there is nothing much to say.
Yihuan took Yanwan's words to heart.
At dinner, he asked someone to send a bowl of deer blood wine to the emperor.
Jinzhong handed the deer blood wine given by Shufei to the emperor.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Shu is indeed a thoughtful person. She heard the other ladies talking about taking tonic food in Yikun Palace early in the morning, so Concubine Shu brought deer blood wine to Your Majesty.
There is no one in the palace who cares more about the emperor than Concubine Shu."
Shu Fei's love for the emperor is undeniable.
The emperor took the deer blood wine brought by Jinzhong with a little hesitation.
At this moment, people from Jingshifang also came over holding signs.
Jinzhong glanced at the green cards and said to the emperor:
"Your Majesty, it just so happens that Your Majesty has just drunk the deer blood wine and needs to take a good rest."
Under Jinzhong's gaze, the emperor turned over Shufei's green card without hesitation.
Only Shu Fei knew about what happened last night, and the emperor didn't want more people to know. The emperor didn't know whether it was his problem or Shu Fei's problem last night.
I must find out tonight.
When the emperor came to Chuxiu Palace, he saw at a glance that Shufei had changed everything in the bedroom back to its original plain colors.
The emperor felt very comfortable looking at these plain colors.
"Or maybe these colors suit you."
Although Shu Fei felt uncomfortable, the emperor called her card again, and she also wanted to prove that what happened last night was not because the emperor hated her.
So I cooperated very well:
"As long as the emperor thinks it's beautiful, I think it's beautiful too."
Yihuan always looked at the emperor with a pair of affectionate eyes, the look of a lover or mistress.
A familiar feeling came over me.
The emperor excitedly took Yihuan away.
A long-lost surprise and inexhaustible energy.
Both the emperor and Yihuan felt unprecedented satisfaction.
Yihuan almost couldn't bear it.
But the more this happens, the more exciting it is.
If it weren't for rules and etiquette, the emperor didn't know how crazy he would go.
Before the emperor fell into a deep sleep, he was still thinking about everything that had just happened. He was so nostalgic for the feeling just now.
