Chapter 155: An Excuse for Avoiding Sleeping



Chapter 155: An Excuse for Avoiding Sleeping

"Your Majesty, you are here..."

When she saw Emperor Jingyang, Concubine Li struggled to stand up and salute, but was stopped by Emperor Jingyang.

"My beloved concubine is not feeling well, so the ceremony will be excused."

After he finished speaking, he sat down on the edge of the bed, his deep eyes filled with a hint of suspicion and confusion.

"My dear, what's wrong with you?"

"When I came this morning, you were fine, so why did you suddenly become so seriously ill in the evening?"

Concubine Li knew that Emperor Jingyang was testing her, and she cursed in her heart, "Emperor Jingyang is such a suspicious bastard. Fortunately, she was wise today and did not pretend to be sick."

Concubine Li's eyes were red, and there was a hint of sadness and loneliness in them. She thought about it and felt that there had to be someone to take the blame for this.

So, she put all the blame on Ji Yuntang.

"In reply to your Majesty, I don't know why I suddenly fell ill, but when Princess Ye came tonight, I caught a cold. I'm afraid I can't serve you tonight."

Under the moonlight, her face looked exceptionally pale, her voice was hoarse, and there was a sickly light in her beautiful eyes. She started coughing before she could say a few words.

"Cough...cough..."

Jian Lan understood what was going on immediately after hearing this hint. She immediately knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, there is nothing false in what Concubine Li said."

"Empress Li was in good health before, but today Princess Ye suddenly barged into Weiyang Palace without permission and said that a young eunuch had falsely conveyed Empress Li's oral instructions and summoned her here."

"While our queen was taking a nap, Princess Ye suddenly took a ruler and started beating Princess Ten. Concubine Li was frightened and fell ill not long after. Please, Your Majesty, take care of Concubine Li."

She was invited by Xiao Shunzi to say that it was Ji Yuntang who trespassed, which made it clear that Ji Yuntang deliberately came to Weiyang Palace to cause trouble.

Emperor Jingyang frowned. He believed every word Concubine Li said, but he didn't believe it all either.

After all, today he, the queen, Luo Qingge and many others came to Weiyang Palace.

It doesn't just refer to Ji Yuntang.

Concubine Li said that she fell ill because Ji Yuntang came, which was too far-fetched.

Emperor Jingyang certainly couldn't convict Ji Yuntang for this reason. He knew that she was very capable of causing trouble, but also very smart, and was not easy to deal with.

But he didn't want to offend Concubine Li, so he said, "I have already dealt with today's matter this afternoon. The Queen was also present at the time, so there is absolutely no reason to bring up the past."

"My beloved, if you are not feeling well, please take a good rest. I will come to see you another day."

Concubine Li was delighted. Although she failed to make Emperor Jingyang punish Ji Yuntang, she had achieved her goal by sending Emperor Jingyang away.

Her ice bath was not in vain.

"Your Majesty, I respectfully send you off..."

Before Concubine Li could finish her sentence, she saw Emperor Jingyang, who had already walked to the door, suddenly turn back.

Her expression changed slightly. This bastard had already left, why did he come back?

Emperor Jingyang walked in and started swearing at Jianlan and Nanny Sun.

"Your master has caught a cold, how are you servants serving him? Is this how you take care of Concubine Li when I'm not here? Believe it or not, I'll peel off your skin!"

"What are you still standing there for? Go to the Imperial Hospital and ask the imperial physician to come and take a look at your master!"

The corners of Concubine Li's lips twitched slightly, and a hint of sarcasm flashed in her eyes.

Haha, Emperor Jingyang still doesn’t trust her and doesn’t believe that she is really sick.

This man is getting more and more disgusting!

Nanny Sun was frightened. She trembled slightly and said quickly, "Your Majesty, please calm down. I will go and ask Doctor Zhu to come and check my queen's pulse."

After taking an ice bath, Concubine Li did not send for the imperial physician immediately in order to make her condition look more serious.

After being yelled at by Emperor Jingyang, the servants in Weiyang Palace all started to get busy.

Some were serving, some were boiling water, everyone seemed to be doing their best.

Emperor Jingyang was not in a hurry to leave. He turned around and came to Concubine Li's bedside and began to show hypocritical concern for her again.

He asked affectionately, "My beloved, I have neglected you over the years. Have you ever hated me in your heart?"

Concubine Li felt sick, but a trace of panic appeared on her pale face. She shook her head and said:

"Your Majesty, I have never hated you. I know that I am of low status and cannot compare with my other sisters. It is my great honor to be able to enter the palace to accompany you and enjoy your grace."

When she said this, her eyes softened a little and a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

"Although Your Majesty has seldom come to my place over the years, you have never treated me badly in terms of food, clothing and daily expenses. I have everything I need in this Weiyang Palace. I am so grateful to Your Majesty that I cannot wait to hate you."

Emperor Jingyang loved to hear this.

Who among the people in this palace is not enjoying his grace?

But there are very few concubines like Concubine Li who remember his kindness to her heart.

It seemed that she really loved him terribly.

"Okay, okay, I'm glad you think this way. I'll ask Zhang Fugui to send you some more rewards later. If you need anything, just tell him."

Concubine Li pursed her lips and said perfunctorily: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Just then, Nanny Sun walked in with a man wearing a green official uniform and carrying a medicine box.

The man was in his early fifties, with a square face, sharp eyes, slightly gray hair, and a gleam in his eyes.

When Concubine Li saw him, she knew that it was a sure thing.

Because the person invited by Nanny Sun was Doctor Zhu.

And Doctor Zhu had already been bribed by her.

When Doctor Zhu saw Emperor Jingyang, he immediately knelt down and saluted him, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. May your Majesty be blessed."

Emperor Jingyang waved his hand casually, "Get up, come and check on Concubine Li, how is her body?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Doctor Zhu walked to Concubine Li's bedside, exchanged glances with her, and began to take her pulse.

When he came, Nanny Sun had already informed him of Concubine Li's situation, so he naturally knew what to say.

Although Concubine Li's cold was not serious, Doctor Zhu still exaggerated her actual condition.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Li has caught a severe cold. She may not be able to get out of bed or do any major movements in the next few days. I will prescribe her a prescription and ask her to take good care of herself during this period. You must stay in a good mood so that you can recover quickly."

Upon hearing this, Emperor Jingyang was slightly speechless. Was Concubine Li's illness really that serious? She couldn't even get out of bed?

He had just been planning to leave, but the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Concubine Li's illness was strange, and then he considered that he was planning to let her sleep with him tonight.

Emperor Jingyang couldn't help but secretly guess that Concubine Li might not want to sleep with him and was making up an excuse on purpose?
