Chapter 256 We seem too clingy
It was still pitch black outside. Yan Wan felt that she had only exchanged a few words with Empress Jing Jue before she heard someone outside reminding her that it was time to get up and pack.
Yanwan subconsciously tightened her grip on Jingjing's hand, then slowly let go.
Sending off the girl in front of him who he had pushed to the top of the world was similar to sending off his own daughter, yet completely different.
Yan Wan blinked her eyes quickly, suppressed her tears, and said with a smile: "We have to dress up our little princess beautifully today!"
Empress Fucha said softly, "Yes, you must dress up well!"
Jing Jue held back her tears, got up, got off the bed, and kowtowed heavily to Empress Fucha in the candlelight: "My Queen Mother, I will stop crying soon. I will walk out of the Forbidden City with my heart held high, and come back with my heart held high!"
Empress Fucha seemed to have something stuck in her throat. She opened her mouth several times before finally making a sound: "Okay, my mother's Jingjue should be like this."
She combed her daughter's hair herself, but other chores had to be left to others.
She is not only Jingjue's mother, but also the mother of the Qing Dynasty. She needs to show her majesty to everyone during the ceremony.
Jing Jing showed a bright smile: "Go, Empress Dowager! Your daughter will go to see you in a moment!"
Then he said to Yan Wan: "Noble Concubine Ling, take good care of the Empress Dowager!"
Yan Wan held Empress Fucha's arm, nodded solemnly, and helped Empress Fucha to dress up.
The next process was to attend social events non-stop until Jing Jue left the palace. The entire palace seemed to become quiet in an instant.
After several months of busy preparations, getting married and becoming someone else's wife is just a day.
Empress Fucha leaned on Yanwan in a trance, looking at the maids and eunuchs who were cleaning up the mess with a look of disappointment: "Wanwan, she just...becomes someone else's family."
Yan Wan was really worried about her and gave Lan Cui a look.
Lan Cui nodded and immediately went to the side hall to invite Zhang Yun over.
When Empress Fucha saw Zhang Yun, she finally came to her senses and said to Yan Wan helplessly, "You, are you really not afraid of others saying that you abuse your power in the palace?"
Yan Wan didn't care about this, but she still showed a gentle smile: "Don't worry, your majesty, the emperor allows me to be a little spoiled, I know my limits."
Empress Fucha nodded at her helplessly, stretched out her hand for Zhang Yun to feel her pulse, opened her eyes slightly, and forced a smile.
Unfortunately, no matter how good the disguise is, it is useless in front of a good Chinese medicine doctor.
Zhang Yun frowned: "The Queen has worked too hard and is too sad. I'm afraid she will be in pain for a long time."
He looked at Empress Fucha's face. Although she had rouge and powder on her face, she could not hide her fatigue. He then continued, "Your Majesty's eyes are a little dazed. This is a symptom of excessive exhaustion. It is best to completely relax your mind. Apart from taking a walk, eating, and taking medicine, you should just stay in bed and rest. Don't worry about anything. Otherwise, I am afraid..."
He frowned and didn't continue.
Yan Wan said in a deep voice: "Please trouble Imperial Doctor Zhang to write a detailed medical prescription. I will personally serve Her Majesty and take care of Her Majesty's food, clothing and daily life."
Zhang Yun agreed: "Okay! Don't worry, Your Majesty! I will definitely write it in detail!"
He was truly happy. His favorite patient in the entire palace was Concubine Ling. With her personally supervising the Empress, the Empress' life span could truly be extended to the greatest extent.
Feeling happy, he immediately took his leave and went to write medical instructions and prescriptions.
Empress Fucha looked at Yan Wan gently and said, "Are you going to take over my full authority?"
Yan Wan walked to her side and helped her go inside to take off her hair and hairpins: "As long as the emperor does not take back the power to assist in the six palaces, I will manage them for you. If the emperor takes them off, I will come to your palace and secretly be a head maid."
She smiled and said, "Your Majesty, please treat this as a sign of love for me and give me a good opportunity to learn something!"
Empress Fucha sighed: "With your intelligence, why do you need this opportunity?"
She looked at Yan Wan tenderly: "I know you just feel sorry for me and are afraid that I will die."
Yan Wan's smile faded: "My lady, I cannot bear to hear you say that."
She held Empress Fucha's hand tightly and said, "Last time, I was careless. This time, I will definitely not be careless again!"
Empress Fucha was stunned for a moment before she realized that she was talking about Yongcong. She turned her face away, and the moment she closed her eyes, tears fell uncontrollably.
"... Good enough, you've done good enough, Wanwan. If I hadn't met you, I would have died with regrets. But now that you're here, I've made up for a lot of my regrets."
She turned around again and looked at Yan Wan gently: "I will learn to let go a little more and listen to your arrangements, but you don't have to come to Changchun Palace every day, just come once every five days."
Yan Wan shook her head: "My Lady..."
Empress Fucha interrupted her in a gentle voice: "I will come once every five days. I promise that I will follow the doctor's advice to take care of my body and not worry about anything. If I need your help, I will ask the palace maid to call you."
Yan Wan was still worried, but when Empress Fucha really insisted on something, even if she didn't say anything decisive, people could see through her persistence beneath her gentleness.
She hesitated: "Your Majesty always dislikes me."
Empress Fucha tapped her forehead with amusement: "You."
She let Yan Wan take care of herself and do whatever she was told to do, and she was so obedient that Yan Wan almost had tears in her eyes.
Empress Fucha touched Yan Wan's cheek helplessly: "I have asked Zhang Yun, and he said that after a woman gives birth, she will cry, feel depressed, and feel anxious for a long time, but this is temporary and she will be fine after getting through it.
Wanwan, this is your first time giving birth, but I have been confused for many years and cannot give you much useful experience. I can only make you happy. Don’t you have a grandmother named Tian in your palace? Ask her carefully and make sure to take good care of her…”
The second half of her words were interrupted by Yan Wan's hug.
Yan Wan said in a muffled voice: "Your Majesty is sad herself, yet you still want to comfort me. I don't care. I will sleep with you these few days."
Empress Fucha was amused and said, "Okay, okay, if you want to stay, then stay for a few days."
She did feel very lonely, and she felt safe with Wanwan around.
Yan Wan's eyes curved, "Then let's eat hotpot tonight! I'll write a letter to Jing Jue and tell her to make her jealous!"
Empress Fucha hesitated: "Will this be..."
Yan Wan was puzzled: "What will happen?"
Empress Fucha smiled softly: "Will it seem like we are too clingy?"
