C186

After dinner, Wang Rong and her companion suggested that they go for a walk. She put on a wide-sleeved robe with her hair tied up in a ponytail and a golden tassel hairpin. She was still very casual, and her majesty had changed into a regular attire.

There was no need for them to follow from the front and back. There was a long dead air lamp standing by the lake. Its color was adjusted to be a bit gray and the cool breeze blew gently. It should be the most comfortable time of the day.

Wang Rong held Zhu Yijun's hand and the two of them walked slowly around the lake.

Zhu Yijun looked down at their interlocked hands for a long time before saying to Wang Rong, "You're still worried that we won't be able to go back in time, in our opinion, we can definitely be better than before."

"After all, Zitong's mentality is really good." Zhu Yijun lamented. "I'm a bit lost in thought, as if you and I have never been at loggerheads before."

"Your Majesty, have you ever thought about what would be the worst ending between us?" Wang Rong tilted her head and asked another question.

Zhu Yijun did not reply.

Wang Rong He said, "I've thought about it before, when His Majesty was so angry that day, I was already prepared for the worst case scenario: His Majesty is going to be crippled."

"Aren't you afraid of being crippled?" Zhu Yijun asked.

"I'm scared." Wang Rong He said, "But if that day really comes, I won't be able to deal with it." "The Thunder Rain Dew is a blessing, there's no other way other than to accept it."

"As a trash, their living conditions are just a bit lacking and they are receiving a bit less treatment. Their family will worry about me and Rong Chang will definitely be affected a little because of me." Wang Rong He said, "At the time of the Kunning Palace fire, I was only one step away from death, but I was disheartened and really wanted to die. After all, my starting point was so high, and there was such a huge gap between us, so I figured that my state of mind was very good, and I might not be able to bear it. If I was in the cold palace and His Majesty's concubine or dog came to the cold palace to mock and ridicule me, I would definitely be unable to endure it. When I was the empress, everyone could just ignore me, but after I become a useless woman, only others would not put me in their eyes, so I might as well die. "

"Don't worry about anything once you die."

"You really dare to say that." Zhu Yijun frowned. He actually dared to directly say that he wanted to die in front of him.

"I have to keep the truth from His Majesty the most, so I've decided that I won't hide it from him in the future." Wang Ronghe said, "The relationship between people is very fragile. We had maintained our relationship for so long, and because of a lie, it is very dangerous. Now, we have to restore it, and even if we can fix it, we still have to protect it." I know that His Majesty's heart has already been hurt by me, and the suspicion that I lied to him will not disappear completely. Perhaps, if I do it again, His Majesty will not give me another chance to repair it. "

"I have never thought of crippling you." Zhu Yijun heard and paused for a while before saying, "I never thought of it once."

"Would Your Majesty be sad if I died in the flames?" Wang Rong He suddenly asked.

Zhu Yijun tightened his grip on Wang Rong He, "Don't talk about it anymore, doing this will make us feel that the punishment for palace maid s is still too light."

"To put you in danger, they should all die." Zhu Yijun said.

"Your Majesty, you can't bear for me to die, right?" Wang Rong asked.

Zhu Yijun looked at him, "We haven't even thought of crippling you, why do you think we would want you to die? "I thought my heart would ache and feel uncomfortable when you were there, but I never thought that you wouldn't be here."

"Even if you stand there and annoy me, I also don't want you to be absent, I also don't want you to change." Zhu Yijun said, "Even if you were to proudly ignore us, we wouldn't want you to be like this, feeling wronged and fawned over us. This isn't the you in our heart."

"I don't feel comfortable watching you like this." Zhu Yijun said, "It follows my woman all over the palace, but you are not."

"Your Majesty, you seem to think that I've always been disobedient to your Majesty." Your Majesty, you seem to be disobedient to me. Wang Rong He said.

Wang Rong He looked at the lake, the gentle breeze blowing through her tassels and trembling in his ears, adding a touch of gentleness to the darkness. "Does Your Majesty think that I am currently putting on an act?"

"Actually, I am the real me now." Wang Rong He turned his head and looked at Zhu Yijun, staring straight into her eyes.

"Deceiving you is my mistake. I have also reflected on it myself. Then, I feel that my brain was probably broken back then." Wang Rong He said that she had taken the initiative to bring up the topic that even His Majesty was avoiding, the topic that she wanted to talk about wholeheartedly. When I was pregnant with Rong Chang, His Majesty didn't manage to get lucky at all. Every year during the first month of each year, His Majesty would only be in Kunning Palace. "

"His Majesty might be able to do it, but I thought from the beginning that His Majesty wouldn't be able to do it, so I gave up. This isn't good." Wang Rong He said.

"You have confidence in me?" Zhu Yijun did not understand. "But I have no confidence in myself."

"It doesn't matter." Wang Rong's expression froze for a moment, "In the past, I could say that I didn't win, but now I'm trying to win. I can't win His Majesty over to another place, but that doesn't mean I can't win."

"If I go somewhere else, what will happen to you?" Zhu Yijun asked.

"I will be sad." Wang Rong He said, "I will cause trouble." "Since His Majesty doesn't like bitter gourds, I'll have Shang Guan serve them up to him every day. As His Majesty eats the bitter gourd, you can see the bitterness in my heart."

"You should know that even an ordinary matriarch would not be virtuous enough to ask the old master to be single-minded." Zhu Yijun looked at her.

"That's why I said this is the real me." Wang Rong gave a sly smile and said, "I don't want to be a virtuous queen anymore. Hmm, I can still do the other parts well, it's just that I don't like His Majesty having too many women. If I don't like Her Majesty, I'll have to say it, it's better than holding it in."

"What would you do if This Emperor were to go somewhere else in the future?" Zhu Yijun reached out his hand to fiddle with her tassels.

"I'll be angry, I'll be disappointed." Wang Ronghe said, "Now that I say it with such confidence, perhaps when I have used up all my confidence, I will shrink back down. His Majesty was so angry this time that he never thought that after becoming a cripple, he wouldn't be either. Then I'll live my life hiding in my Kunning Palace. "

"If you don't come out, it will hinder your majesty's eyesight." Wang Rong He's words were pitiful.

Zhu Yijun looked at her, "Then why did you come to us first?"

"Because the worst preparations have already been made. And then I did such a thing. His Majesty only felt sad because I lied to His Majesty, and not because he wanted to investigate my crime of deceiving the monarch." Wang Rong looked into Zhu Yijun's eyes, "Even if it's useless in the end, I still want to work hard."

"Only then will I be able to live up to the feelings His Majesty has for me, as well as my own heart."

Zhu Yijun reached out his arms to embrace Wang Rong and hugged her tightly, "We truly thought that you would never come to us again."

Wang Rong He placed his arm around his waist and leaned against his chest, feeling bitter and sweet at the same time. She didn't ask, since his majesty was so worried that she wouldn't go find him, then would his majesty take the initiative to look for her?

She wasn't surprised. His Majesty didn't promise anything in return for her confession.

They both knew what kind of promise they were going to make, so they could only wait for the answer.

Perhaps what he said to Wang Rong had a huge mental impact, so Zhu Yijun did not express any need for the Longevity Pill today.

Wang Rong called Xu Duzhong's little disciple over and said that she hadn't been sleeping well recently and asked the young imperial physician to rub a few pills to help his sleep. Of course, his appearance had to be the same as this pill, and the smell should be the same as well.

Wang Ronghe handed a pouch to the young imperial physician. Inside was a pill of ointment.

The young imperial physician was a bit stupefied. No wonder his master had said before he left that it was fine to treat empress's patients, but don't listen to what the other empress s said. The Empress didn't feel that some suggestions were difficult at all.

But the trust was deadly.

The young imperial physician found it difficult to speak. "Esteemed Empress has overestimated me. How could I possibly have that kind of skill?"

"I know." Wang Rong He said, "Don't you still have your master?"

"It's not like the imperial physicians are so strict when they leave the palace. Didn't you leave the palace every month just to find your master when it's time to rest? This is a rather urgent matter, so you'll have to do it tonight. Wait until your master has finished kneading the pills, then bring them to Ying Tai."

"Time is of the essence, you have to talk to your master over and over again." Wang Rong He said.

When the young imperial physician was sent out of Ying Tai, he was still in a daze. He didn't agree to anything, so why did he just come out with the empress's money bag?

The young imperial physician sniffed the air and resigned himself to his fate as he took the carriage back to his master's house.

Xu Duzhong did not work at Imperial Hospital, but stayed at the small courtyard in the southern part of the city.

After all, Xu Duzhong was still very young. Even if the imperial physician did not enter and leave the palace repeatedly, it would be embarrassing to say that he was a famous doctor, so people who stood at the Imperial Hospital like that were all mediocre.

The Xu Family still wanted to use this time to let Xu Duzhong settle the major issues in his life. They did not expect him to simply not return home.

Xu Duzhong was drinking wine at the moon. While he was feeling happy, there was a knock on the courtyard door. A servant went to open the door.

Xu Duzhong looked at his disciple, and then looked at Yue Guang, "At this time, did you come with a roast duck to talk with me about heart to heart?"

"I didn't want to come." The young imperial physician's brow drooped. " The Empress sent me. "

"I'm not asking you to only treat the Empress, don't agree to anything else." Xu Duzhong said, "How dare you answer the Empress's questions?"

"I didn't respond." The young Imperial Physician said.

"No response, you came here?" Xu Duzhong said.

The young Imperial Physician's brow drooped. He took out his bag from his pocket and tossed it to his master, gulping down the wine in his cup on the table.

Xu Duzhong opened his bag, took out a pill and smelled it, then broke off a little and put it in his mouth to taste. His expression changed greatly, "What did the Empress say?"

"The Empress said that she hadn't slept well recently and needed to eat some sleep aid pills. She wanted to look like this pill and smell the same." The young imperial doctor recounted what the empress said to her.

"The Empress said it was urgent, so you have to hurry."

"I'll just wait here, then take the pills and send them over to the Ying Tai." The young Imperial Physician said, "It feels like the Empress isn't just some medicine to help him sleep, but a medicine to make him fall asleep with a single bite. A medicine to cover his face with sweat?"

"Shut up." Xu Duzhong said, "I will go and pick up the herbs, you will burn the furnace later."

"Is there anything to eat? I haven't eaten dinner yet. " Then, without even turning back, Xu Duzhong saw that the young imperial physician had shrugged his shoulders in no interest and said to the old servant who was about to open the door, "Uncle Xia, give me a bowl of noodles. Otherwise, I'll have to hear master say it again when I find the furnace boring."
