Chapter 192: Conversation

After deciding on the treatment plan, Xiao Yuanzheng and others exited the inner room, and Man Bao administered acupuncture to the queen for the first time.

Most of the princes and princesses also retreated, but the prince stood still.

The third prince originally stood up to go out, but when he saw that the prince did not move, he stopped and refused to leave.

When the emperor saw them, he couldn't help but frown and waved, "What are you doing standing there? Why don't you get out quickly?"

The prince said: "I want to stay and look after my mother."

The emperor gave him a glare and said, "How old are you? Take your brothers and sisters out!"

The queen also waved to the prince and said with a smile: "Go and watch your brothers and sisters."

The prince could only go out, but he was too lazy to care about the third prince.

The third prince followed him out.

Suddenly, only the emperor, empress, and aunt Shang were left in the room. Aunt Shang glanced at the emperor, reached out and put down the tent, leaving the emperor alone outside the tent.

Man Bao signaled the queen to take off her clothes and took out a needle to prick her.

This time the acupuncture took a long time, an hour, because it was divided into two injections. Aunt Shang stood in the tent and stared at Man Bao, seeing her twisting the needles and slowly inserting them into the queen's head one by one.

and shoulders, neck, and chest, and couldn't help but swallow.

The queen originally wanted to talk to Man Bao, but after the injection, her heart slowly calmed down, and she suddenly felt sleepy, and she slowly fell asleep.

Man Bao counted the time, pulled out the needle, pushed the queen gently, turned her over, and tied it on her back.

The queen fell asleep in a daze, her eyes only opened for a moment before closing again.

Aunt Shang saw it and breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.

During this period of time, the Queen could not sleep at night because of her illness. Sometimes she would fall asleep only to wake up with a cough.

Man Bao sat by the bed and looked at the queen. She knew that this patient was different from the previous patients. So although she wanted to run out and chat with the emperor while the acupuncture was being performed, she held back.

Man Bao held his chin and looked at the Queen in a daze. When he turned around and saw Aunt Shang still standing upright, he asked in a low voice: "Aren't you going to sit down?"

Aunt Shang bent her knees with a smile and thanked Man Bao. She glanced at the queen and asked in a low voice: "Little doctor Zhou, my queen can't sleep well at night. Is there anything I can do about this?"

Man Bao shook his head and said: "If you are an ordinary person, you can use soothing incense or sleeping drugs, but the queen is suffering from Qi disease, so it is best not to use these scented products."

Only then did Aunt Shang remember that Xiao Yuanzheng had also warned them that they never use incense in their house.

Aunt Shang sighed.

Man Bao counted the time and pulled out the needle. The queen was still sleeping soundly on her stomach. Aunt Shang quickly pulled the quilt over and gently covered her.

Man Bao looked at it and reached out to press an acupuncture point on her waist. The queen frowned slightly, moved her body in discomfort, and then turned over.

But she still didn't wake up.

Aunt Shang was stunned when she saw it.

Man Bao signaled her to cover the quilt quickly, and after she pressed the quilt, they rolled up the tent together.

The emperor was sitting outside drinking tea alone. When he saw them rolling up the curtain, he quickly came over to take a look. He was relieved to see the queen sleeping peacefully with her eyes relaxed.

Knowing that she always slept lightly and the emperor didn't say anything, he looked at the queen for a while and then nodded slightly to Manbao, gesturing for her to go out with him.

The prince and others went to the front hall to wait. There were only palace servants waiting for the queen outside. The emperor thought for a while and did not go forward. Instead, he took a small path to the side.

Man Bao followed him.

The emperor walked for a while and saw that she was following her step by step. He couldn't help but laugh and said happily: "You are so brave, you don't even ask me what I want to take you to do?"

Man Bao scratched his head, "Don't you, Your Majesty, have something to say to me?"

The emperor saw that she had not changed much from before. Obviously, although she had experienced a lot in the past two years, her character had not changed. He smiled and nodded, "I just want to talk to you."

The emperor glanced back, and Gu Zhong immediately waved back, and the palace attendants who followed him retreated and stopped following.

Only Gu Zhong followed a few steps behind.

Man Bao walked two steps behind the emperor and asked after hearing him sigh: "Are your junior brothers still used to studying in school?"

Man Bao replied: "I'm quite used to it."

She asked smoothly: "Your Majesty, do you want to see my junior brother?"

The emperor did not expect that she would suddenly ask this question. After a pause, he smiled and said, "That's not necessary. Let your junior brother study hard and serve the imperial court with success in the future."

Man Bao strongly recommended her junior brother, "Your Majesty, my junior brother is very talented, and now that you have met him, it will be good for what we will do in the future."

Emperor: "...what will you do in the future?"

"Yes," Man Bao raised her head to look at the emperor, and met his eyes. She thought a lot in her heart at that moment, including her husband's advice and Bai Shan's advice. She swallowed the words that came to her lips, but she did not flinch.

Instead, he skipped many words and said directly: "Isn't this also what your Majesty wishes?"

The emperor looked at her for a long time and was speechless.

Gu Zhong, who was a few steps behind, was almost breaking out in a cold sweat.

The emperor looked at Man Bao for a while, then turned his head and continued walking forward with his hands behind his back, "Your reason for coming to the palace is reasonable, but why can he enter the palace?"

Man Bao thought for a while and realized that Bai Shan didn't have any medical skills, so he quickly chased after him, "It's hard for him to enter the palace, so your majesty can leave the palace."

The emperor smiled and said: "I want to leave the palace, but all the ministers don't agree."

Man Bao snorted softly in his heart, you even ran away to a place as far away as Yizhou, and now you can't even leave the palace and walk around the capital?

Who are you lying to?

However, Manbao didn't dare to say it, so she began to think distressedly, wondering if there was any good way for Bai Shan to meet the emperor in an upright and proper way.

Seeing the thoughtful look on her face, the emperor smiled and suggested softly: "Actually, you are also the master of suffering. Your complaint is the same as his complaint. You can complain here first, and he can follow suit."

Manbao pondered for a moment and then said: "I have to go home and discuss it with my family, and the queen's illness still needs to be treated."

"Yes," the emperor said quickly, "this matter is not that urgent. Let's stabilize the queen's condition first."

Manbao looked at him deeply and nodded.

The two walked around in a circle before returning to the main hall. The prince hurriedly greeted him, ignored his father, and asked Manbao directly, "How is my mother?"

Man Bao replied: "She's asleep. She doesn't sleep well, so let her sleep, but don't sleep for too long. Wake her up after half an hour."

The prince breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the emperor and said, "Father, why don't you grant mercy to the world, save people into humanity, and pray for your mother's blessings."
