Chapter 229 Does he have someone outside?
Soon, the steaming hot water was ready, and Qi Wuyou quickly dived into the water, hoping to dispel the cold.
However, even in the hot water, she still felt freezing cold.
After taking a shower, Qi Wuyou put on a thick cotton coat, sat on the bed, and wrapped himself tightly with the quilt.
Despite this, she still felt cold and shivered continuously.
"Go and get Doctor Zhang!" Lianxiang ordered anxiously.
Soon, Doctor Zhang rushed over. Seeing Qi Wuyou's appearance, he was so angry that he blew his beard and glared: "What's going on? Playing in the water in the middle of winter? You young people really don't know how to take care of your bodies!"
Qi Wuyou's forehead felt hot as if it was on fire. She looked at Doctor Zhang's angry face in a daze, and a feeling of guilt surged in her heart.
She was really guilty. New Year's Day was a day for family reunion, but her illness caused great trouble to Doctor Zhang.
Mei Xue anxiously grabbed Qi Wuyou's hand and begged with tears in her eyes, "Doctor Zhang, please save the queen! Wait until the queen recovers, then you can scold her."
Doctor Zhang shook his head helplessly, sighed and said, "Well, okay, okay, I'll prescribe some medicine for her first. But you guys better be careful in the future and don't act so foolishly again."
Although Doctor Zhang complained, his hands moved very quickly.
He quickly wrote down a prescription, handed it to Lianxiang, and told her to get the medicine and boil the soup according to the prescription.
Doctor Zhang was still chattering away. Qi Wuyou lay on the bed, looking at the sky outside the window and sighed silently.
She really just wanted to find out why He Xiang fell into the water! How did it turn out like this?
Just when Lianxiang was about to go out to get medicine, she ran into Xuan Yelan who had just returned from taking a bath.
"Your Majesty," Doctor Zhang bowed respectfully, "Let me take your pulse as well!"
Xuan Yelan stretched out his hand, and Doctor Zhang stroked his beard and felt his pulse carefully. After a long while, he spoke: "Your Majesty is in good health, and there is nothing wrong with you."
Xuan Yelan nodded slightly to show his approval.
After all, he had been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and a little cold water was nothing to him.
However, when his eyes fell on Qi Wuyou lying on the bed, a trace of worry appeared in his eyes: "When will she recover?"
Doctor Zhang stroked his beard and replied, "As long as you take the medicine I prescribed and sweat, you will be cured. But remember not to act like this again in the future."
Xuan Yelan nodded repeatedly, but a question suddenly arose in her mind - why did she run to the pool in the middle of winter?
Liu He quickly guessed the cause and whispered a few words in Xuan Yelan's ear.
As Xuan Yelan listened, his expression changed several times. Finally, he sighed helplessly and said nothing.
After Doctor Zhang left, Xuan Yelan walked to the bedside and sat down. He reached out and gently wiped the sweat from Qi Wuyou's forehead, his movements as gentle as if he was treating a precious treasure.
Seeing her face looking pale due to illness, Xuan Yelan couldn't help but feel distressed.
Fortunately, the medicine prescribed by Doctor Zhang was very effective, and Qi Wuyou's fever subsided soon after drinking it.
After just two days, she had fully recovered and was full of energy, and even He Xiang's illness was cured.
Qi Wuyou no longer had any doubts about this accident. She thought the ice in winter was too fragile.
Although the surface looks hard and thick, it will break if you step on it with a little force.
For this, she was severely scolded by her mother and the queen mother. After all, this illness almost cost her half her life, which made them very worried.
After Qi Wuyou recovered, he continued to live in the palace as usual.
Because Qi Wuyou was ill this time, the Empress Dowager moved back in a hurry.
Apart from paying his respects to the Queen Mother every day, Qi Wuyou would stay in his own palace, reading books, practicing calligraphy, and occasionally playing chess and zodiac games with Mei Xue and others. His life was simple but fulfilling.
However, during this period of time, she always felt that Xuan Yelan seemed to have something on his mind, and his attitude towards her became a little strange, and he even avoided her.
This made Qi Wuyou feel very confused and puzzled.
That day, Qi Wuyou sat on the steps of the corridor of Fengyi Palace with his hands on his chin, thinking about life with a puzzled look on his face.
She really couldn't understand why Xuan Yelan suddenly became like this.
Was it because he had done something wrong? Or was he having some difficulty?
Behind her stood Meixue, Lianxiang and Hexiang.
Seeing Qi Wuyou sitting in the wind, Mei Xue couldn't help but persuade him, "Madam, you just recovered from your illness, how can you sit in the wind? What if you catch a cold again!"
Qi Wuyou surprisingly ignored her, still immersed in his own thoughts, muttering to himself: "What on earth is going on?"
Lian Xiang and He Xiang came over and asked curiously, "What happened, Madam?"
Qi Wuyou held his chin with both hands, looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, his face full of confusion, and muttered to himself, "Could it be that he has changed his mind?"
The three of them were confused. Mei Xue looked at them, a trace of worry flashed in her eyes, and she asked softly, "My queen, what happened to you?"
Qi Wuyou came back to his senses, held Mei Xue's hand tightly, and asked anxiously: "Tell me, what is Xuan Yelan doing?"
"Ah?" Mei Xue looked confused, not understanding Qi Wuyou's meaning at all. "What's wrong, Your Majesty?"
Qi Wuyou frowned and explained, "Ever since I got sick, that guy has been avoiding me. Mei Xue, do you think he has someone else outside?"
"Probably not?" Mei Xue was a little embarrassed. She really didn't know how to answer.
The reason why the Queen feels sad every day is actually because of this incident!
However, Your Majesty has not come as often as before recently, but maybe it’s just because of the busy state affairs?
After all, as the king of a country, there are many things to deal with.
However, the two did not notice the strange expressions of Lianxiang and Hexiang. They looked at each other and sighed helplessly.
Maybe it was because she sighed too loudly or Qi Wuyou was too sensitive, but she turned her head suddenly and met Lianxiang's gaze which had not yet been retracted.
"What's going on between you two? Why do I always have a feeling that you are hiding something from me?"
"That's impossible!" Lianxiang laughed dryly, her tone a little stiff, "Our loyalty to the queen is evident to all, how could we hide anything from her!"
Although Qi Wuyou only said it casually, she didn't know if it was an illusion, but she always felt that Lianxiang seemed particularly guilty when she spoke, and the same was true for Hexiang beside her.
Qi Wuyou did not look away, but stared at Lianxiang without blinking.
Lianxiang was so frightened by her gaze that she couldn't help but ask, "Madam, why are you staring at me like that?"
When she said this, her smile seemed very forced.
Qi Wuyou frowned slightly, and suddenly he realized.
He Xiang and Lian Xiang were both people Xuan Yelan arranged to be around her. I believe they must know why Xuan Yelan always avoids her.
