"Back to the emperor, the empress has caught a cold and needs to recover for a few days. Wei Chen then prescribes a prescription to ward off the cold. The thing to watch out for is fever. In addition, the old injury on the empress's leg has not healed, so she soaked it in cold water. The cold wind blows, so you must be more careful in the future to avoid getting sick." The imperial doctor said after carefully diagnosing Ye Zhenzhen.

Ye Zhenzhen had changed into dry clothes and was wrapped in three quilts, making her look like a small mountain. She felt a little warmer now, and there was color on her face.

Su Feng and another palace maid were wiping Ye Zhen Zhen's hair with dry towels. Her hair was long and thick, difficult to dry, and as black as a clump of crow feathers, spread out on the bed.

Ji Wu Jiu looked at the gauze wrapped on Ye Zhen Zhen's hand and asked, "What's the matter with the injury on the hand?"

"Back to the emperor, there is a torn wound at the tiger's mouth. She probably accidentally touched something when she fell into the water."

Ye Zhenzhen lazily raised her eyelids and explained, "When I was testing the gun, the gun exploded and my hand was shattered."

"You're too much nonsense!" Ji Wu Jiu scolded sharply. Bore blast is not a trivial matter. It can range from serious injuries to death. A man in the Shenji Battalion once encountered a bore blast while aiming. The steel ball penetrated his eye and entered his brain. The condition was horrific. Today, Ye Zhenzhen was only injured by the shock, which must be said to be a blessing among misfortunes.

Seeing that he raised his eyebrows and wanted to curse, Ye Zhenzhen simply pulled up the quilt and tucked his head into his pocket, remaining silent. Ji Wu Jiu was speechless and patted her head twice, "Come out, don't pretend to be dead."

Ye Zhenzhen suddenly thought of something, stuck out her head and said to Wang Youcai beside her, "Go to the pond and pick up the blunderbuss for me."

Wang Youcai was about to leave after receiving the order, but Ji Wujiu stopped him, "Wait a minute. Feng Youde, go pick it up. After you pick it up, send it directly to Qianqing Palace."

Ye Zhenzhen was unhappy, “That’s my thing.”

"Even you are mine."

"..."

Ji Wu Jiu stood up straight and looked down at Ye Zhen Zhen, "Okay, you can rest. You are not allowed to play with blunderbuss in the future. This is an imperial decree."

At night, Ye Zhenzhen really had a fever, her body was as hot as coal, and she was talking nonsense. Ji Wu Jiu reached out and touched her forehead, then stood up and asked the palace maid to bring the medicine that had been kept warm. However, Ye Zhenzhen was already dizzy from the fever, and how could she drink the bitter liquid in her mouth, so Su Yue fed her a spoonful and spit it out, and in the end she simply closed her mouth tightly. The thick black concoction poured out of the corners of his mouth, flowed down his neck, and dripped on the pillow.

With no choice, Ji Wu Jiu had no choice but to hold her in his arms and pinch her chin with one hand to force her to open her mouth. Su Yue then fed the medicine into Ye Zhen Zhen's mouth. Because her lower jaw was clamped, Ye Zhen Zhen Zhen couldn't spit out the medicine, so she swallowed it after her throat moved twice. Ji Wu Jiu stroked her chest gently again to prevent her from choking. After working for a long time, the two of them finally gave Ye Zhenzhen the remaining half of the bowl of medicine to drink. Ye Zhenzhen hadn't even started to sweat yet, but the two of them got out first.

Ji Wu Jiu asked Su Yue to wait outside. He put Ye Zhen Zhen back on the bed and covered her with the quilt. Ye Zhenzhen's cheeks were red from the heat, her eyes were tightly closed, and there were still a few tears hanging from the corners of her eyes. This woman is usually as majestic as a little tiger, but it is rare to see her look so weak.

After lying down, Ye Zhenzhen started talking nonsense again. When Ji Wu Jiu raised his ears and listened carefully, he heard her say, "Grandpa, don't marry me to the emperor."

Youyou sighed, Ji Wu Jiu said to himself, "You don't want to marry, why did I ever want to marry."

It's just that now the deal is done, you and I are husband and wife after all. Although there are many beauties in the harem, you are the only one who wants to be buried with me.

Live and sleep together, die in the same acupuncture point.

People say, "Ten years of practice can make you cross the same boat, and a hundred years of practice can make you sleep on the same pillow." You and I don't know how many years of practice it took to become a husband and wife in this life. However, even though they are bedfellows, they are just different dreams. This bad relationship is really not as good as not repairing it.

***

When Ye Zhenzhen got up early the next morning, she found that it had been snowing outside all night, and the world was covered in silver, as if coated with a layer of glass. Her fever had gone away. Although the imperial doctor told her not to go out for fear of getting cold again, Ye Zhenzhen didn't want to miss the first auspicious snowfall this winter and insisted on going out for a walk. Su Yue couldn't persuade her, so she had to wrap her up like a silkworm cocoon, put a large hand stove in her arms, check it carefully, and only after confirming that it was safe, Wang Youcai pushed her out.

Ye Zhenzhen said she wanted to see plum blossoms, so Wang Youcai pushed her for a walk near the plum blossom house near the Imperial Garden. They walked not far and met several groups of people. Ye Zhenzhen wore a mink hat, a scarf made of fox fur, and a blanket made of tiger skin. With only one pair of eyes exposed, she looked like a fur trader going about his business, accepting various products. People's worship.

In fact, there are not many plum blossoms blooming at this time of year. Only a few more anxious ones bloomed in the first snow, while most of the others were in bud. Ye Zhenzhen was a little confused at first. There were so many places where you could enjoy the snow scenery, so why were people running to Meishe? Could it be that all the people in the palace were plum lovers? When she saw Ji Wu Jiu's figure, she realized that it turned out that the drunkard was not interested in drinking.

Ji Wu Jiu recognized Ye Zhenzhen from quite a distance - the tiger skin covering her body was too conspicuous.

"See Your Majesty, my concubine's leg injury has not healed and she cannot salute. Please don't blame Your Majesty." Ye Zhenzhen sat calmly and said these nonsense, because the lower half of her face was hidden in the scarf, so her The voice sounded muffled.

"Is it better?" Ji Wu Jiu said, reaching into the brim of her hat and probing her forehead. When he woke up in the morning, her forehead was still a little hot, but now the fever has completely subsided. It has to be said that this woman's body is really solid, not like a woman at all.

His action was a bit intimate, and Ye Zhenzhen was a little uncomfortable with it. Also unaccustomed were the crowd of onlookers. Concubine Xian, Concubine Xi, Wang Zhaoyi, Wen Jieyu, etc. unexpectedly met Ji Wu Jiu here by chance. Now that they saw Ji Wu Jiu's consideration for Ye Zhenzhen, they had different thoughts.

Concubine Zhuang was also there. This woman was very obedient and took the initiative to stand behind Ye Zhenzhen and help her sort out the layers of clothes wrapped around her body.

Ye Zhenzhen narrowed her eyes with satisfaction and looked at the women around her. Concubine Xian has a pure and pure temperament. She is now wearing a silver fox fur cloak with two plum blossoms on her head. She stands in the snow. Not to mention men, eunuchs will be tempted when they see her. Therefore, Ye Zhenzhen thought, Ji Wu Jiu would probably forgive her this time.

Ji Wu Jiu was in a good mood. He wanted to take his wives to Meishe to have a sit. The so-called plum house is actually a pavilion with ventilation on all sides, built in a plum forest. Before the few people entered the plum house, they saw a woman walking among the plum trees, wearing a red cloak and holding a white glass vase with a blooming red plum in the vase. The woman's facial features are small and unique, the lines on her face are soft and gentle, and her beautiful eyes are flowing, who is it not Li Fei?

Ye Zhenzhen then remembered that Concubine Li's confinement period had indeed passed.

Concubine Li walked up to Shi Ran with a red plum in her hand. Everyone thought she would offer it to Ji Wu Jiu, but they didn’t expect that after seeing the gift, she knelt down to Ye Zhen Zhen and said, “Empress, concubine, see you. This plum blossom bloomed quite uniquely, so I folded it off. I wanted to send it to Kunning Palace in person, but I didn't expect to meet you here. It's a simple and simple thing, just a little bit of my concubine's thoughts. I hope the Queen will not dislike it."

"Wang Youcai, help Li Fei up quickly." Ye Zhenzhen thought to herself, Li Fei was really embarrassed this time, she knelt down in the snow on such a cold day, her courage was commendable.

Wang Youcai quickly helped Concubine Li up, and a maid from Kunning Palace behind him took the plum blossoms from Concubine Li's hand. Ji Wu Jiu looked at Concubine Li and raised his eyebrows slightly, "Why are there only the Queen's plum blossoms but not mine?"

Li Fei met his gaze and smiled and said, "The emperor likes it, I can just go and fold it again."

"No need, I remember that there is also a plum tree in your palace."

Ji Wu Jiu helped Concubine Xian walk into the Mei House. Ye Zhenzhen deliberately lagged a few steps behind. Looking at Concubine Li's back, she thought to herself that some expert had given her the advice this time. Could it be that it was her palace maid Fan Chun? ? Ji Wu Jiu only punished her because she was too rude for contradicting the queen in public. Now that she had come to humiliate the queen and let Ji Wu Jiu see it, she probably lost all her anger. Besides, she is such a beautiful woman. In the world of colored glaze, people are more beautiful than others, and even gods will be moved by their mortal hearts when they see her.

"Empress, what are you thinking about?" Concubine Zhuang asked.

"I'm thinking, this Li Fei really looks like a plum blossom fairy today."

Concubine Zhuang curled her lips and said, "No matter how much you pretend to look like him, he is not a true god."

Ye Zhenzhen lowered her head and thought, Concubine Li is really going to be favored again this time, Concubine Xian seems to be about the same, and Ji Wu Jiu’s cousin will also enter the harem in a few days. This time she will return to the harem. There is a lot of excitement among them. A man has to deal with so many women. It seems that being an emperor is not easy. This is a huge test for a man's body and mind.

But this has nothing to do with her. She just hopes that these women will be more sensible and stop rushing to hit her.
