[Comprehensive] Empress Variations

Li Yu couldn't help but took a small step back. After figuring out the whole story, it hit him even harder.

It's not that he has no friendship with Zhou Ehuang, he always thought that his affection for Zhou Ehuang was deeper than that for Zhou Nuying.At first, the reason why he met Zhou Nvying in private was because he wanted to know something about Zhou Ehuang when he was very young from her mouth.Although Zhou Nuying is much younger than Zhou Ehuang, she has heard a lot from her parents.

Even now, the topic between him and Nvying has not completely left Zhou Ehuang.Ehuang was seriously ill, and Nvying often comforted him.And Zhou Nuying herself is Ehuang's younger sister, which really made him feel worried and in the same mood.

He felt that it was easier to get along with Zhou Nvying, and when he was alone with Ehuang, he couldn't help but worry in his heart.This is also one of the reasons why Zhou Nvying often visited Zhou Ehuang at the same time with him, and he was willing to agree.

In the end, he only considered himself, but never considered Ehuang's feelings?Even if there is nothing between him and Zhou Nuying, sick people should always like to be quiet.Zhou Nvying has never been a person who calms down, her lively and charming, often makes him feel that his life has been endowed with new vitality.But for Ehuang, it may have been a burden from the very beginning.

He, who claims to love her very much, is adding to this burden.So much so that Zhou Ehuang couldn't afford it, and his healthy body, which was originally considered healthy, had already been depleted to a certain extent at this time.

And Zhongxuan, Zhongxuan is the favorite of all his children.His appearance is similar to his mother, which makes him feel affectionate.Moreover, Zhongxuan is extremely intelligent since he was young, and among the few children, he is also the one who likes to get close to him the most.

The child's trust and closeness to him were not concealed at all.In the end, his father was one of the culprits who caused him to leave early.

Li Yu bowed his head slightly, unwilling to let people see his gaffe at this time.The movement of bowing his head concealed his expression, but he couldn't hide the atmosphere around his body that seemed to sink in an instant.

"My lord, are you thinking of letting the female hero enter the palace?!" Xun Ying's gaze has been on Li Yu, but Li Yu's confession at this time does not seem to have given him any obvious procedures.

"..." Li Yu looked up at Zhou Ehuang's gaze, her gaze was too serious, letting him know that she was not just testing his mind.

Does he want Zhou Nuying to enter the palace?When the two met secretly in the past, he thought more than once to make the two of them aboveboard.

Nvying also wanted to enter the palace very much, and even asked him two days ago when he would be able to stand by his side in an open and honest manner.How did he answer at that time?His answer at the time was, "When Ehuang's health improves, he will take you into the palace."

Now that Zhou Ehuang opened his mouth to ask, for some reason he couldn't say the answer that had appeared in his heart.Even his own heart is no longer so sure.At this time, does he still want Nvying to enter the palace?If Zhou Nvying entered the palace, every time Ehuang saw her, he would definitely think of his betrayal and Zhongxuan who passed away.

Ehuang's health is not good at this time, how can he bear such a burden? ! "Don't let Nvying enter the palace for now, your body is still very weak. If Nvying enters the palace now, I'm afraid there will be some rumors."

After Li Yu finished speaking, he had some regrets. Will there be no rumors when Ehuang has recovered and Zhou Nvying enters the palace again?I am afraid that the same cannot be broken.At most, he, the country's lord, would have a 'romantic and suave' title.Ehuang, she does not know how many women she will sympathize with.is not that right?Even her biological sisters are not of one mind with her.

"Since the king has the intention to let Nvying into the palace, it's fine. Nvying is now committed to the king. If the king doesn't intend to let her into the palace, she doesn't know what to do in the future." Xun Ying nodded, she When she spoke, she could still hear some elder sister's protection of her sisters.

"I understand." Li Yu felt a little sour in his heart.Up to now, Ehuang still maintains Zhou Nvying in this way.At the beginning, when Zhou Nvying was intimate with him, did she ever think about Ehuang's situation.If she could think more, she wouldn't be in the situation she is now.

Before Li Yu and Zhou Nvying, it was indeed not Li Yu who took the initiative.In this way, Li Yu's impression of Zhou Nuying was really discounted.Is Zhou Nuying really ignorant of the world, or is she doing it on purpose? "Ehuang, you have been wronged."

When Xun Ying heard Li Yu speak, the smile on her lips subsided, and she shook her head slightly. "Why did the concubine feel wronged? In this harem, I don't know how many people envy the concubine. The concubine was lucky to marry into the palace, and it has been more than ten years now. The greatest glory of a woman is this."

Empress Dowager is the highest position a woman can reach in this country, and in the eyes of other women, it is indeed the highest honor.Zhou Ehuang's status and rights have reached the peak, and she can get whatever she wants in the palace very quickly.If you don't talk about feelings, Li Yu really doesn't owe her anything.

Li Yu could see a bit of self-mockery in Zhou Ehuang's gaze.Li Yu knew Zhou Ehuang very well, just as he was tired of war and didn't care about power, Zhou Ehuang didn't care much about power.The two have a great understanding in this regard.What Zhou Ehuang cared about was never the position of empress.What she cared about was always the relationship between the two of them.

It's just that what has already happened cannot be restarted.Even if he is the king, he can only go on.At this time, Li Yu really regretted it.I regret the open talk with Zhou Nuying at the beginning, and even more regret that I didn't pull away immediately after realizing Zhou Nuying's thoughts.On the contrary, he is somewhat proud.

"Since Ehuang thinks this way, he should take good care of his body." Li Yu smiled bitterly, and he took a step forward to help Ehuang gather the bedding on both sides of her body.Vaguely, he saw obvious rejection in Zhou Ehuang's line of sight.

"Don't worry about the Lord, Ruyun will take good care of his concubines." Xun Ying only spoke after Li Yu's body was withdrawn.The alienation in the discourse is really obvious.

Li Yu glanced down at the tiles on the ground, "Ruyun, clean up the room and cook medicine for Ehuang again."

Although Li Yu did not directly refute Zhou Ehuang's words, the meaning of his words was quite obvious.This Ruyun didn't look at him.She didn't tidy up the room in time, and she didn't cook medicine for Zhou Ehuang immediately.

"Yes, Lord!" Ruyun hurriedly gathered the pieces of broken porcelain on the ground and put them directly on his handkerchief.Wrapping the broken porcelain pieces, she looked at Zhou Ehuang worriedly, but could only grit her teeth and leave.

After Ruyun left, Li Yu also opened the door and walked out of Zhou Ehuang's bedroom. "He Min, go and pass on the imperial physician so that someone can feel the pulse of Ehuang again."

"The slave understands." He Min is Li Yu's personal eunuch, and the king asked him to teach the imperial physician himself, so he must be the one with the best medical skills.The imperial physicians in the imperial hospital are also divided into three, six, and nine grades. The medical skills are good, and they are often older.Except for the king, few people can be moved.

Li Yu walked back to the room after watching He Min leave.

"Isn't the lord going to see Nvying? Nvying used to follow you to my concubine's place. Today, she must not be used to seeing the lord for such a long time." Xun Ying had already closed her eyes, Opened it and found that Li Yu came back again, frowning slightly without a trace.The meaning of seeing off guests is quite obvious.

"She has to get used to it." Li Yu didn't get close to the bed or couch, and sat on a stool beside her.

At this time, Li Yu realized that he was indeed too fond of Zhou Nuying, or because she was not his woman in name, he always felt that she would be wronged.Normally, he spent significantly longer time with her.

In this harem, there are very few women who are treated like her.Even Ehuang, who is the queen of the country, may not always be able to get his company every day.No matter how important Zhou Nvying is, how important is it to be a queen?Since Zhou Nuying wanted to enter the palace, she should get used to the things she would face after entering the palace.

Li Yu's gaze was on Ehuang's body, as gentle as ever. "Ehuang, you are not in good health now, so you don't need to think so much. I will arrange these things."

"It's true that the concubine has become more disciplined." Xun Ying nodded.It is the sovereign's freedom to favor any woman. It is really inappropriate for her to speak like this as the empress of the country.

Li Yu felt that his enthusiasm at this time was as if he had encountered ice water.No matter what he said, Zhou Ehuang's answer would leave him speechless.This kind of scene is what he did on his own.Originally, he thought that Zhou Ehuang's gentleness and generosity were really less romantic.Now facing Zhou Ehuang like this, he realized how precious that peaceful gentleness is.

There was a bit of silence in the room for a while, until He Min's voice sounded.For the first time, Li Yu felt that the somewhat thin eunuch's voice was very pleasant. "My lord, Imperial Physician Chen has arrived."

"Quick, let him in." Li Yu got up quickly, with obvious joy in his tone.

"My ministers see the emperor." Although Chen Taiyi looked gray-haired, he looked quite energetic.He has accomplished medical skills, so he naturally pays great attention to his body.

"Physician Chen doesn't need to be polite." Li Yu waved his hand, and he personally reached out to help Physician Chen up. "Physician Chen take a good look at Ehuang, why has her body been ill for so long?!"

Imperial Physician Chen nodded, and took a step forward to feel Zhou Ehuang's pulse.

Xun Ying also stretched out her hand very cooperatively, and pulled up the sleeve, revealing her obviously thin wrist.

Zhou Ehuang's body is petite, if she stood with Zhou Nvying, many people would mistake her for the younger one.Now that she has been tortured by illness for so long, her wrist is thinner than Li Yu remembered, and it seems that she can break her with a little force.

Li Yu tightened his fingers, thinking about how many rare treasures he still has in his warehouse that can make up for his body.I will ask for some prescriptions from Imperial Physician Chen later, so that I can take good care of Zhou Ehuang's body.

Doctor Chen checked Zhou Ehuang's pulse, feeling a little complicated.This is not the first time he has taken Zhou Ehuang's pulse. Zhou Ehuang has been ill for so long, and he has checked Zhou Ehuang's pulse at least three times.These three times, it can be said that each time was worse than the first time.

Zhou Ehuang is proficient in singing and dancing, and his body is pretty good.But after such a long time, the foundation was almost ruined.Now he feels that Zhou Ehuang at this time is like a big tree eaten by moths. It seems that there is nothing wrong with it on the surface, but it is almost completely destroyed inside.In such a situation, it cannot be said to be treated at all, it can only be said to prolong life as much as possible.

When Imperial Physician Chen took Zhou Ehuang's pulse last time, although her body was a little weak, it would never be life-threatening.The reason why it persists repeatedly and cannot be cured for a long time is due to depression in the heart.

This depression in my heart is difficult to say, but easy to say.If even the patient doesn't know what's bothering him, it's almost impossible to start.Even some people have been worrying unfoundedly, worrying about everything.If the patient knows what he is depressed about, he can look away, or just solve the matter directly.

The last time he saw Zhou Ehuang, he explained the cause of the disease.Judging from his years of experience, Zhou Ehuang clearly knew what was bothering him.I thought that the matter had been resolved and that Empress Dowager's body would gradually recover, but I didn't hear any news of recovery.

Yesterday, when he heard that something happened to the Queen's biological son Zhongxuan, he guessed that the Queen's side might also become complicated.As expected, he was summoned by the emperor today.Moreover, this matter is more complicated than he imagined, and it is already an unsolvable problem.

What the hell did the empress go through to make her body so depleted in more than [-] days.With such a speed, even the Imperial Physician Chen, who has been an imperial physician for so many years, was amazed. "The lord..."

Imperial Physician Chen couldn't help looking at Zhou Ehuang. In his opinion, it's better not to let the Empress know about this condition.Originally, there were many things that worried Empress Dowager, if she added her own body.This emotional illness, if you can't adjust your mentality, I am afraid that the medicine stone will also be ineffective.

"It's okay for Imperial Physician Chen to speak up." Xun Ying covered her arm with her sleeve.

"It's okay for Imperial Physician Chen to speak directly. After speaking, Ehuang can feel relieved." Li Yu didn't understand what Imperial Physician Chen meant as he thought.

Imperial Physician Chen hesitated a bit, and did not speak for a long time.

"Imperial Physician Chen, but my health is not good anymore? I noticed it when Zhongxuan left yesterday. There is no need for Imperial Physician Chen to hide it from me." Xun Ying smiled with obvious comfort in his smile.

Doctor Chen relaxed a little, and then he was a little dumbfounded.Normally, he, the doctor, would always comfort the patients, but this was the first time that a patient was allowed to comfort him like today.Moreover, it is still a patient who is already on the verge of danger.

Doctor Chen felt a little regretful.If the empresses of the country had such a mentality in the past, how could they have come to this point.He didn't have much contact with Zhou Ehuang, but he also knew that both the harem and the court had a lot of praise for this woman.Even if the women in the harem always like to be jealous, when they mention her, there is always a bit of respect in jealousy.

When Li Yu heard Zhou Ehuang's words, he spoke quickly. "Ehuang, you don't have a general idea of ​​the root cause of your illness, how could it be bad? Don't think too much about it."

Doctor Chen glanced at Li Yu, and raised his relaxed heart just now. "Master, the empress is right. Her current health is really not very good."

Li Yu's complexion obviously sank, and he looked at Imperial Physician Chen with a bit of ruthlessness in his eyes.Li Yu seldom poses like this on weekdays.Doctor Chen was not afraid, and met Li Yu's gaze.

Doctor Chen emphasized it again. "My lord, the current body of the Empress can only be maintained with tonics. As for other medicines to treat illnesses, they are useless now. How long the Empress can persist depends on herself."

The sound of the porcelain bowl shattering sounded again, Ruyun had just opened the door and came in when he heard the imperial physician say these words.She didn't check it for a while, and the entire tray in her hand fell to the ground, but she didn't feel any regrets.These drugs are of no use to her after the country.

If Empress Guo's health has improved at this time, she must be eager to celebrate after hearing this sentence.Now she seems to keep repeating this sentence in her ears, and she has no energy left to think about other things.

Li Yu was not in the mood to blame Ruyun for his rudeness, his voice was even hoarse.He wanted to use tonics to nourish Ehuang's body, but it was definitely not for such a purpose.hanging?Ehuang's body has actually deteriorated to this extent?Regret and guilt kept coming to him, making him a little out of breath. "Doctor Chen, do you know the crime of deceiving the emperor?"

"Naturally, I dare not lie to the lord. Everything I said is true." There was also a bit of melancholy in the voice of Imperial Physician Chen, but he was indeed very confident in his medical skills.

At this time, Li Yu wished that Doctor Chen would deceive him.The emotion in Chen imperial physician's eyes is too calm, and his medical skills are truly incomparable to other imperial physicians.So, it's really true.

Li Yu supported the table not far from him with his hands, and then he stabilized his body, without any more gaffes.

"Physician Chen, please prescribe some medicines. These tonics should not be taken indiscriminately." Xun Ying was too calm when everyone else was very worried.

Imperial Physician Chen glanced at Zhou Ehuang, and said something. "After the country, if a person already has the desire to die, I am afraid that no matter what kind of tonic will be of any use. After the country, you have to adjust your mentality. There is nothing you can't see. Only after death There's really nothing left."

Doctor Chen actually knew that if he had the desire to die, he might not be afraid of death.However, as a subject, he hoped that the queen's life would be prolonged.Even if it's just to live a few more days.

"Well, I understand." Xun Ying looked to the side, Ruyun seemed to be in a daze, "Ruyun, help me send Imperial Physician Chen to me."

"Yes." Ruyun responded subconsciously, her expression was about to cry, but she followed behind Imperial Physician Chen pretending to be calm.She must have asked Chen Taiyi carefully, what should be paid attention to in the current body of Empress Dowager.

Li Yu watched the two go out, watched the door close again, and there were only two people left in the room again.He walked quickly to the bed and couch, and stretched out his hand to hold Zhou Ehuang's shoulder. "Ehuang, you must live well. I order you to live well."

"My lord, if you order other things, the concubine must have obeyed. It's just that the matter of life and death is not in the concubine's hands. Even if the concubine wants to agree, there is really nothing he can do." Xun Ying smiled slightly. , the strength in Li Yu's hand is not small, and she has already felt the pain.

Li Yu couldn't help closing his eyes, not daring to look at Zhou Ehuang.If other people hear the news that they are about to die, they may be afraid, they may feel sorry, or they may feel sorry... From Zhou Ehuang's eyes, what he saw was joy and relief.Zhou Ehuang really wanted to die, and this would only speed up her death.

What is he going to do?How can I save it? !If Zhou Ehuang had paid attention to it when he was depressed, would Zhou Ehuang be doing well now?

"Master, in fact, this is a good thing for us, isn't it? Zhongxuan must be very lonely when he went to the other side. As a mother, I want to protect him." Xun Ying took Li Yu's hand from her own Bring it over your shoulder.When she touched the back of Li Yu's hand, she obviously felt his fingers moved, but did nothing.He took it off her shoulder very obediently.

"For the lord, after Zhou Ehuang is gone, he can be with Nvying in a legitimate way. There will be no more gossip, and Nvying's appearance is four or five points similar to his concubines. It can only say that the king misses the old feelings. He will never forget me, the empress who has passed away."

"This is by no means a good thing for me." Li Yu's voice was obviously angry, not like talking, but roaring.

After he roared, he lowered his head, looking a bit decadent.Seeing his hand being placed on the quilt casually by Zhou Ehuang, he obviously wanted to hold Ehuang's palm instead.When I wanted to do it, I found that I didn't have the courage at this time.Stretching out his hand, he clenched the quilt under his palm, and the silk quilt was almost torn due to his strength.

He raised his head again, his eyes were less gentle than usual, but more stubborn and even crazy.His tone was so gentle that it was unbearable. "Ehuang, if there is no Zhou Nuying, would you like to stay?"

"The lord, there is already a female hero." From the time when Li Yu started contacting Zhou Nuying, it was probably doomed to the end of his relationship with Zhou Ehuang.Zhou Ehuang was indeed gentle, but she also had a bit of arrogance in her heart.At least, he couldn't bear the fact that his husband was with his biological sister when he was sick.

There was a bit of ethereal in Xun Ying's voice. "My lord, could it be that you want the concubine to have no peace after death? After the concubine has endured so much, let her down again?!"

"..." Even if Li Yu really wants Zhou Nvying to quit now, he can't say it now.At this moment, he was in a dilemma.
