Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty

A few days into October, what Chen Xiuming was worried about happened.

In the morning, Kangxi left early as before, and Chen Xiuming slept longer because of the colder weather, and did not wake up until lunch time.

"Your Majesty, you got up late today, I'm afraid you won't be able to sleep well tonight." Fanghua said after serving Chen Xiuming to make up.

"Then go to bed later."

While speaking, Fang Ruo hurried in and said, "Madam, Eunuch Wei is here."

Judging by Fangruo's appearance, Wei Zhu came here for something important, so Chen Xiuming stretched out his hand to help her out.

After going to the outside room, Wei Zhu put away the handkerchief that was wiping sweat, and Chen Xiuming didn't sit down, but asked softly, "Is there something wrong with the Lord Long Live? Mr. Wei is running, it's very busy during this season." Sweating."

"My lord, you are tired from walking, you should sit down first, so you can take a rest..." Wei Zhu raised his eyes slightly.

Wei Zhu's appearance is obviously urgent, but now Chen Xiuming is asked to sit down, no matter how stupid she is, she still knows what happened to Kangxi, could it be that the time is up?

"Let's be honest, what happened to Lord Long Live..." Chen Xiuming lost her smile, only to feel that her eyes were shaking and her feet were a little unsteady, and she squeezed Fanghua who was supporting her.

"The emperor fainted in Qianqing Palace..." As soon as Wei Zhu said this, Chen Xiuming's legs and feet went limp, and she fell on Fanghua.

"Go to Qianqing Palace!" Several people were terrified by Chen Xiuming's surprise, and they hurriedly made arrangements after hearing her say that they were going out.

Wei Zhu directly knelt on the ground, "My lord, you have to take care, the emperor said before he passed out that he should speak slowly when talking to you, it seems to be fine, it should just be that he has been a little tired these few months. "

"The emperor is probably tired. I don't think there is much sorrow... You have to take care of your body, otherwise the emperor may be worried when he wakes up." The nanny was still more stable, persuading Chen Xiuming with a relaxed tone.

Chen Xiuming was startled by the news, but when Mammy said it, she could only suppress the inexplicable panic in her heart and smiled lightly, but this smile was extremely ugly with her pale face.

While speaking, the sedan chair was ready, and 25 elder brother who was staying alone in the residence was also carried by the nanny to Chen Xiuming, afraid that 25 would be frightened, Chen Xiuming patted his head and said softly: "You Huang Ama feels a little unwell, Er Niang will take you to have a look, but you should be more obedient, you know?"

"My son knows that Er Niang's complexion is a little ugly, let the imperial doctor show it to Er Niang later." 25 was a little worried, the only thing that could make her complexion so ugly was something happened to Huang Ama.

"Well, let's go."

God's temper is really weird today. As soon as he was about to step out of the palace gate, it started to rain. Chen Xiuming stopped and waited for the palace people who turned back to get the umbrella. When the umbrella was opened, the rain had already turned into a water curtain under the eaves.

Everyone carefully protected the two masters and sat in the sedan chair. Even if they were careful, Chen Xiuming's dress was still a little wet from the rain.

The masters of the various palaces in the palace hurried to Qianqing Palace in the rain, and everyone outside the palace also got the news and rushed to the palace.

A few days ago, Prince Yong, who was too busy to spend, was resting in the mansion after receiving Kangxi's words. Hearing the news, he hurriedly called someone to inform Fujin. After a while, he changed his clothes and drove to the palace in a carriage.

Hearing the sound of raindrops hitting the carriage and the sound of horseshoes, Prince Yong felt a little irritable, and stretched out his hand to open a gap in the curtain. Prince Yong, who was next to him, saw him and said in a low voice, "You don't have to worry too much. Always healthy."

"Hmm." What he was worried about was not just Kangxi's body, but it was inconvenient to talk about it.

Maybe it was Prince Yong who figured it out, maybe seeing Yu Xin also calmed down, or maybe the cool wind was bothering him, Prince Yong put down the curtain after a while.

With the sound of horseshoes sounding from all over the capital and dissipating in the rain, the hearts of all the officials in the capital today were tightened, and the ministers who were not on duty who were close to the prince's mansion even inquired about it early. There's something wrong.No matter what they were thinking or worrying about, they all changed into court clothes and sat in the front hall waiting for the follow-up, and many ministers asked their servants to take letters to the mansion of their friends with them in the rain.

What is worthwhile is to deal with the matter at hand carefully and quietly, even if there are some people who need to talk, they keep their voices down, and the time for talking is extremely short.

When Chen Xiuming took 25 to the Qianqing Palace, he saw many people kneeling outside, except for a few elder brothers and concubines in front, there were also quite a few ministers, who presumably stayed in the Qianqing Palace to talk with Kangxi of.

"I have seen the imperial concubine, 25 elder brother."

"Hmm." At this moment they were kneeling for Kangxi, so Chen Xiuming naturally wouldn't call out, but just led 25 to answer.

When Chen Xiuming came, the eunuch told Li Dequan, and Li Dequan counted the time to come out to greet her, "The servant greets the imperial concubine, and the empress takes elder brother to go inside."

Chen Xiuming led 25 into the inner room, and Li Dequan followed behind. Inside, Concubine De was already sitting on a small stool, and a bunch of imperial doctors gathered together to write prescriptions.

"What's wrong with Long Live Lord?" Chen Xiuming raised his hand to avoid everyone's salute, and asked the imperial physician.

"Returning to your empress, the emperor was too tired a few days ago. Now that the weather has turned cold, some cold air has accumulated in his body. Today, the hot air in the palace collides with the cold air in the emperor's body. The emperor can't stand the alternation of cold and warm." The imperial doctor said simple and plain Easy to understand.

After hearing these words, Chen Xiuming felt relieved, but she was still a little worried when she saw that Kangxi hadn't woken up yet: "When will Lord Long Live wake up?"

"The emperor has just taken the medicine to dispel the cold, and he will wake up soon."

It should be really all right, Kangxi's body has been healthy all these years, she knew it from getting along with him, and she thinks it will be better in a few days.

Seeing that Chen Xiuming's complexion improved, Concubine De took the imperial physician and Li Dequan out. At this time, everyone outside the palace had already arrived, and walking in the heavy rain inevitably wet their shoes.

"Long live Lord is fine. The imperial doctor has already seen him and he will wake up in a short time. Brothers and adults, drink some hot tea to drive away the cold first, and sit in the side hall for a while. Wait until Long live Lord wakes up and summons you." It's not too late, please."

The imperial doctor went to the side hall with everyone, and explained Kangxi's condition clearly when Prince Yong was questioning him. Only those who knew that Kangxi was fine were relieved, and felt a little cold at this moment.

Just when the hot tea was served, he drank a few sips and waited quietly for Kangxi to wake up.

Several concubines and Fujin stayed behind, and Concubine De asked them to wait elsewhere. Concubines, Fujin and foreign ministers always wanted to avoid suspicion.Concubine De also asked people to add a charcoal basin to each of the two sides, it was inevitable that the clothes would get wet in the rain, and at this time she couldn't change clothes, it would be better to have a charcoal basin.

Kangxi really woke up not long after, and asked Li Dequan when he woke up, "Where is your master?"

Li Dequan helped Kangxi up and sat down, "The slave asked Wei Zhu to tell you that your master looked good when he came, and the concubine De concubine had her pulse checked by the imperial doctor. It's okay to be a little frightened."

"Call the fourth child in, and call the courtiers in too." Kangxi didn't ask himself what was wrong, it was all right, otherwise he would have heard crying at this moment.

After guarding Kangxi for a while, Chen Xiuming went to the side hall with Concubine De, and the 25 around her were chatting obediently with a few Fujins, and the atmosphere eased a lot, because Kangxi hadn't woken up yet, but she didn't joke around.

When Li Dequan came to invite everyone to Fujin, Chen Xiuming was drinking calming tea and eating candied fruit, Kangxi had not summoned his concubines and they had to sit down.

The people in the room invited An Kangxi and they only called out and said, "I'm fine, but I'm feeling cold occasionally, I'll take a look at it, let's go back, the fourth one will rest for one more day."

"Yes."

Everyone got Kangxi's words and left the palace, only 24 stayed in the side hall and waited for Chen Xiuming.

The sound of horseshoes sounded again at the gate of the palace, but this time the sound of horseshoes was not as rapid as when they came.

The people who inquired about the news also dispersed. I don't know how many people were relieved, and those who got the exact news were no longer as nervous as before, but they didn't know whether to forget about it or write it down.

After Kangxi woke up, Chen Xiuming wanted to see him, knowing that it would take a while to drink tea with all the concubines and wait, and from time to time the movements of raising the teacup let the concubine De see clearly.

"The weather turns cold these days, and the lady should take care of herself," said Concubine De.

"I have nothing to do in the palace. The charcoal basin has been prepared early in the palace." Hearing the sound of rain, Chen Xiuming remembered something. If there are palace maids and eunuchs, if they are sick, they will not be able to serve the master well."

"Well, concubines who are afraid of the cold have to prepare more in the palace. This year there should be more rain than in previous years." When Concubine De was talking to Chen Xiuming, the others listened, and their thoughts changed, thinking about the rain. Prepare more things to dispel the cold and dehumidify.

By the time Li Dequan came to invite people, the rain had already lightened, and Chen Xiuming was at the front leading 25 to lead the crowd to see Kangxi.

The rain was hitting the glazed tiles densely, maybe the rain was getting weaker, but the sound was not as disturbing as before.

"Don't salute, let's all sit down." Kangxi said, and everyone bent their knees slightly and sat on the stools.

"I'm fine, but you should be careful not to torment yourself like me. The medicine is very bitter, and you won't be able to see the wind for a few days." Kangxi said with a smile, showing a relaxed appearance.

"Yes." Everyone answered with a smile.

"25 came with your mother-in-law?" Kangxi beckoned 25 to come to him, and it didn't feel cold when he squeezed his hand, knowing that he wasn't cold.

"Going back to Huang Ama, my son came with Er Niang. Brother 24 has already seen Huang Ama, and he is waiting for his son."

"I know." After looking around, the corners of the shoes and clothes were almost wet, and he said, "It's getting late, you should go back, change your clothes early and rest, don't come here on 25 tomorrow, so as not to be overwhelmed by me."

"Yes."

It was rare for Kangxi not to leave Chen Xiuming behind, probably because he was afraid that she would be cold, or that he would be overwhelmed by him.

After going out, everyone went back to the palace. After Chen Xiuming returned with 24 and 25, Li Dequan came to Yongshou Palace with a bunch of things to drive away the cold and Kangxi's words.

Kangxi was afraid that Chen Xiuming would be ill, so he asked her to go to Qianqing Palace in a few days, and stayed in Yongshou Palace to accompany her on the 24th of these few days.

Knowing that Kangxi couldn't worry about Chen Xiuming at this time, he agreed, took a bath early, took a meal and rested.
