The prince's personal bodyguard
Chapter 20 Portrait in the Secret Chamber
After many twists and turns, we arrived at the Queen Mother's bedroom. The Queen Mother lived in the Cining Palace, which was basically at the end of the western part of the entire palace. Princess Shouyang Zhao Qing also came along, and the concubines and imperial edicts waiting to attend to her were crowded in the room. It was like entering a flower garden, with a room full of beautiful women.
The people of Zhao were open-minded and there were no restrictions on interactions between men and women, so the concubines in the harem did not avoid it.
"Are you the little miracle doctor who is here to treat the Queen Mother?" The Queen looked amiable and spoke in a gentle tone, but there was a flash of astonishment in her eyes, but it was fleeting.
"Back to my queen, yes."
"Is there anything I can do for you?" Since it was the Emperor who asked him to come, the Queen would naturally assist him.
"Your Majesty, please go back and rest, and leave a few clever maids here."
"Oh?" The Queen smiled, "Then shall we sisters go back and wait?"
"Chunyan, Mingxia, Qiubai, Dongyang, you are the lovely girls trained by the Queen Mother. You should serve the Queen Mother and obey the orders of the Master. You must be careful and cautious in everything you do, and do not neglect Master Bai!"
"Yes! We will remember the Queen's instructions!" Four smart-looking maids stepped out.
The queen gave a few more instructions and arranged everything in an orderly manner, then led everyone back. No one wanted to wait here, some had been here for almost a day and could only stand, their legs were swollen, and when they heard this, they all ran as fast as rabbits.
A concubine who was elegant, dignified, and graceful, and looked well-dressed, must have been of a high rank. Before leaving, she secretly glanced at Bai Xinyin a few more times, and then went back without saying a word.
The room smelled so strongly of makeup that Bai Xinyin felt like she was going to faint. When most people had left, she immediately opened the window to ventilate the room.
The Queen Mother was still in a coma. It was time for dinner, and the other maids had gone to eat first. Only Princess Shouyang and her maid Dongyang were left in the room.
Princess Shouyang didn't leave for some reason. Bai Xinyin thought: It wouldn't hurt for her to breathe a little longer in the room alone. Anyway, she couldn't stay there during the operation tomorrow.
Princess Shouyang, the seventh princess of the current emperor, was born in a noble family. Her mother was the current imperial concubine. She was doted on since she was a child and had an arrogant personality. Since she came of age the year before last, she may have grown up and restrained her temper, which made her even more loved by the emperor.
Bai Xinyin noticed a pot of tulips on the table in front of the window. She said to the little maid Dongyang, "Move this out, move it far away, and it's better not to put it in the yard."
"But this is the Queen Mother's favorite lotus, it is......"
"Move out! You must obey Mr. Bai's words unconditionally!" Princess Shouyang Zhao Qing did not allow her to finish her words.
"Yes!" The little maid knew her master's temper, so she lowered her head and moved out.
"Is there anything wrong?"
"This flower is called 'Tulip'. When it is placed in the dormitory for a long time, the human body's immunity will decrease, and many people will experience hair loss. People with decreased immunity will be more likely to get sick. For example, if they have latent diseases in this area, they will induce the disease if they smell this flower too much." Bai Xinyin explained to Zhao Qing.
"Immunity is..." She thought Zhao Qing didn't understand and wanted to explain.
"The king of heaven overshadows the tigers of earth."
Bai Xinyin's heart skipped a beat when she heard this, and she turned around and looked at Zhao Qing: "The pagoda suppresses the river monster."
"Red umbrella with white pole."
"Let's lie down together after eating."
"You are my little apple."
"No matter how much I love you, it's never enough."
…………

The two looked at each other excitedly.
"I heard that there is someone who can cure this disease, so I hurried to see you, and sure enough..." Princess Shouyang was a little excited and grabbed Bai Xinyin's hand tightly.
Bai Xinyin just met Huangfu Yan yesterday, but she didn't expect it to happen today... It was so fast, and everything was rushed into these two days?
"This is not the place to talk. Let's wait until I cure the Queen Mother's illness before continuing." Bai Xinyin let go of the princess's hand. He is still a man now, so the princess should be reserved.
Anyway, this traveling doctor won't leave for a while, Princess Shouyang Zhao Qing: "Well, well, well, let's find a chance to talk about it."
Then he asked, "You said there is something wrong with this flower?"
"Maybe it was unintentional." Bai Xinyin nodded, thinking: I don't want to get involved in your messy affairs. The palace is full of water. I will drown in it after I get treated for a disease. I will make some money and leave.
Bai Xinyin walked up to the empress dowager, felt her pulse, rolled up her eyes, pinched her chin, looked at her tongue coating, and found that she was still having a fever. He took out antipyretic and anti-inflammatory drugs from the Qing Nang and fed them to her. These were purified by Bai Xinyin herself, but due to her limited technology, the purity was not high. It would make no difference if she took a few more pills.
It was already late, and the lights were turned on in the palace. The three maids who had eaten had also returned. Qingdai brought the dinner, and Bai Xinyin said to Princess Shouyang, "Princess, go back and rest first! It's okay."
How do you watch me eat?
"Okay!" The princess was a little reluctant, "I'll come again tomorrow!"
"Okay." The princess gave a few more instructions to the maids and then left.
After a stick of incense,
The Queen Mother slowly opened her eyes and saw the situation in front of her. She was confused: What if I died? These little maids also came with me? The emperor was so filial that he burned two handsome men? Wasn't he afraid that his father would blame him? The one sitting in front of the bed was so handsome?
Thinking of this, he reached out to touch Bai Xinyin.
When the maid Qiu Bai saw this, she quickly took the empress dowager's hand and cried with joy: "The empress dowager has woken up! Go and report to the emperor."
"Reporting is reporting, don't let them come, just say I said so. Don't come tomorrow either, report when there is any situation." Bai Xinyin thought to himself that if a whole room full of people came, kowtowing and bowing, it would be too troublesome, so just keep quiet for a while.
"Yes!" Ming Xia on the side was smart and smiled. They were all very skilled people who could serve the empress dowager, so it was not difficult for them to answer her questions.
The Queen Mother was a little confused. Qiu Bai was very clever and briefly recounted what happened in the afternoon. The girl understood and did not say that Bai Xinyin was a traveling doctor, but only that he was a miracle doctor invited by the emperor.
The Queen Mother understood and secretly looked at Bai Xinyin again: Oh? Why does she look like a girl? Although she has an Adam's apple and a rough voice, her hands, her skin...
The Queen Mother was such a shrewd person that she smiled inwardly and did not expose the truth. She calmed down and waited for treatment.
In the imperial study, after listening to Mingxia's report, the emperor wanted to go and see how the empress dowager was doing, but after hearing the young man's words, he took two steps and then sat back down.
Thinking of the young man's eyes, the emperor's heart sank in panic. He ordered Gao Yanfu to guard the door of the imperial study, activate the mechanism behind the bookcase, and walk into the secret room.
The secret room was very clean. There was a white jade bed, a set of pear blossom wood tables and chairs, and a phoenix hairpin with ruby eyes on the table. The hairpin was made of a piece of pure white jade, which was warm and delicate, with a soft luster. The head of the hairpin was made of red gold, and it was inlaid with a dazzling diamond, which shone brightly.
The phoenix holds a string of pearls in its mouth, and its eyes are made of two rubies, which are smart and bright, as if it is looking at the world around it.
The emperor picked up the golden jade phoenix hairpin, stroked it gently, and looked at the portrait on the wall.
There are many portraits hanging on the wall, all of which depict a woman in various postures and expressions, some smiling, some pouting, some laughing, some lost in thought, as agile as a rabbit and as quiet as a virgin.
If Bai Xinyin saw these paintings, he would find that if he were wearing women's clothing, he would look very similar to the people in the paintings. Except for the different temperament, they seemed like they were cast in the same mold, especially those eyes, which could make people intoxicated and lose their way.
At this moment, putting away his aura of being the supreme ruler, the man stroked the cheek of the person in the painting like a maniac in love, and murmured, "Feng'er, is it her?" His voice was gentle and sad, no longer like the attitude of the supreme ruler sitting on the dragon throne in broad daylight.
