Chapter 38 Rubella
Lu Wanning stretched out her hand as instructed, and there were several obvious red spots on the exposed wrist.
Qingzhi took out a handkerchief and put it on Lu Wanning's wrist, and let Dr. Liu check Lu Wanning's pulse.
"Mr. Liu, what's going on with Beauty Lu? Did she eat something that shouldn't be eaten?" Concubine Lu asked anxiously as soon as Dr. Liu finished checking her pulse.
Imperial Physician Liu understood what Concubine Lu was saying, shook his head and said, "Concubine Lu, don't worry, Miss Lu's condition should be rubella."
"rubella?"
"Yes, the imperial concubine." Dr. Liu explained: "It may be that Lu Meiren ate something that she couldn't eat, or touched flowers and plants that she couldn't touch, which caused the wind evil to enter her body, which caused her to have this condition.
Regarding the symptoms, I will go back and prescribe a prescription for Lu Meiren. Lu Meiren only needs to take two doses of medicine according to the prescription, and all these red spots will be gone by tomorrow at the latest."
"It's just that the imperial concubine and Lu Meiren had better find out what kind of food Lu Meiren came into contact with that caused the rubella. It's best to avoid eating this food in the future."
Concubine Lu nodded, "Okay, I understand, go down and make a prescription."
Dr. Liu saluted and said, "I'm going to resign."
After the imperial doctor left, Lu Wanning said to Concubine Lu: "Your Majesty, I didn't touch anything else on the way from Linglong Pavilion. The flowers and plants on the road were all common in the past. I just drank tea at your Majesty's place.
, I just ate a small plate of crystal cake. This is not my first time eating crystal cake, but I have never had such a situation before."
Concubine Lu also wanted to know what the problem was. She thought about it with a sullen face and said to Lu Wanning: "I will investigate this matter carefully, but your current situation is not suitable for the emperor to see. You will do it later."
Go back, and when you get better, I will find another opportunity for you to show your face in front of the emperor."
Lu Wanning nodded as if she was unwilling and disappointed, and said, "Okay then, I will listen to your Majesty's orders."
Seeing her like this, Concubine Lu comforted her and said: "Your body is important. If you are so indecent in appearance now, if the emperor sees you, not to mention being favored, I am afraid you will fall out of favor completely. You just entered the palace now. In the future,
There are plenty of opportunities, so don’t rush.”
Lu Wanning smiled slightly after hearing this, "Well, I know, I will go back to practice now."
Concubine Lu nodded, "Well, go ahead."
As soon as Lu Wanning left Zhaoyang Palace, Concubine Lu called Hong Jian and Chi Su and said harshly: "Let me investigate carefully and see what kind of dirty things are hidden in this palace."
Things and ghosts and monsters.”
"Yes, empress."
After listening to the instructions, Hong Jian and Chi Su ordered people to dig through the entire Zhaoyang Palace, and they only had to dig three feet into the ground.
What they didn't expect was that they didn't find anything dirty in this investigation, but they found several spies arranged by other palaces in Zhaoyang Palace.
Although these people did not admit it, Concubine Lu still believed that Lu Wanning suddenly got rubella and these people had something to do with it. Otherwise, there was no way to explain why Lu Wanning suddenly got rubella.
It was a pity that the plate of crystal cake was eaten by Lu Wanning, otherwise someone could have asked someone to check whether the plate of crystal cake had been tampered with.
When Lu Wanning came back from Zhaoyang Palace, she asked for a veil from Concubine Lu. She covered her face with the veil all the way.
As soon as she returned to Linglong Pavilion, she asked Qingzhi to prepare the medicine. Although the red spots on her face were not painful, they were very itchy. She had to use great perseverance to restrain herself from scratching.
Qingzhi quickly prepared the medicine and brought it to the table. After Lu Wanning drank the medicine, it took half an hour for the itching to slowly disappear.
Qingzhi and Qingdai looked at the red spots on Lu Wanning's face that had not faded, and asked in confusion: "Master, why are you doing this? Although there is grudge between us and Concubine Lu, we can show our faces in front of the emperor.
After all, there are not many opportunities. If the master misses this opportunity, it will not be easy to show his face in front of the emperor next time."
Lu Wanning shook his head and said: "If you don't have the opportunity to show your face, you can find it again, but I will never let myself be tied to the imperial concubine."
Qingdai scratched her head and said: "But Master, you and the imperial concubine are both girls from the Zhongyong Hou Mansion. Anyone who comes to see you and the imperial concubine are from the same school."
"There are still quarrels among biological sisters, not to mention that the imperial concubine and I are cousins. Isn't it normal for cousins to have dissatisfaction with each other?" Lu Wanning said: "I don't mean to make everyone think that the imperial concubine and I are not at odds with each other.
And, I just want to separate myself from the imperial concubine on the matter of the emperor favoring me."
Lu Wanning's words were a bit confusing. Qingzhi thought for a while and then said: "Master, do you mean that you don't want the emperor to favor you because of your concubine?"
Just as Lu Wanning was about to shake her head, Qingdai spoke up and said, "No, Master means that she wants the Emperor's favor, but there cannot be the shadow of the Imperial Concubine behind this matter, right, Master?"
Lu Wanning nodded, "That's it. Don't forget that my entry into the palace was done by the imperial concubine against the emperor's wishes."
"If I appear in front of the Emperor when he is having lunch at Zhaoyang Palace today, then the Emperor may not only not have a good impression of me, but may instead think of the whole story of my entering the palace, and thus have a negative impression of me.
I'm even more unhappy."
When Lu Wanning said this, Qingzhi and Qingdai understood.
But after understanding it, both Qingzhi and Qingdai felt worried for Lu Wanning. This situation was really difficult to break!
Lu Wanning was not in a hurry, she had plenty of patience and took her time.
What is needed for this kind of thing is to do it carelessly and slowly. If you are too anxious and deliberate, you will be at a disadvantage.
At noon, after Luo Chengjing finished approving the memorial, he put the imperial pen in his hand back on the pen holder, pinched his eyebrows, stood up and asked Lian Yongwang, "What's going on in Zhaoyang Palace today?"
Lian Yongwang took a step forward and replied respectfully: "In reply to the emperor, Lu Meiren asked Wan'an to go to Zhaoyang Palace in the morning, and stayed there for less than an hour. In the meantime, Dr. Liu went there once, and then
The imperial concubine asked people to clean up the Zhaoyang Palace once."
When Luo Chengjing heard this, he paused for a moment, then nodded and said, "Let's go to Zhaoyang Palace."
Everyone in the harem knew that the emperor had gone to Zhaoyang Palace for lunch, and they all thought that the emperor would stay in Zhaoyang Palace today. However, what everyone did not expect was that the emperor left Zhaoyang Palace after lunch and did not go to Zhaoyang Palace in the evening.
, but went to Zheng Meiren’s place in Ruyi Pavilion.
"Zheng Meiren? Zheng Meiren has visited her seven or eight times this month, right?"
After Concubine Lu heard the news from Hong Jian, she lost her appetite looking at the food on the table in front of her and ordered people to remove all the food.
