OBS Chapter 235 Rubella
Chapter 235 Rubella
Concubine Yu was always straightforward and unabashedly outspoken. She was completely different from the concubines who had just entered the palace at the age of seventeen or eighteen. Those young women were often shy, but Concubine Yu accepted the request openly in front of everyone.
"Then I'll borrow Concubine Ying's good words..." Concubine Yu finished speaking, her eyes smiling, her gaze flowing like water as she glanced at the emperor who was teasing the child nearby. Her eyes seemed to contain a thousand words: joy, anticipation, and a hidden excitement.
The emperor laughed and scolded her, "You are becoming more and more shameless. You are the most courageous person in the whole palace!"
"I've been like this since I was little, and it's not something I can change overnight... By the way, I recently learned how to make peanut cheese with the maids in the palace. Would Your Majesty like to try it?"
Why is Concubine Yu, who doesn't know the five grains, bothering with food?
"Your Majesty, Concubine Yu has been busy with this thing lately. I've tried it several times and it's really delicious. How about letting my sisters have a taste of it today?"
Seeing that the emperor was a little hesitant, Yan Wan continued.
The emperor knew that Concubine Yu was frequent visitors to Yongshou Palace.
"Then present it..."
It was a rare occasion for us to get together today, and he was in a good mood, nodding graciously.
Concubine Yu quickly called the palace maids standing outside the pavilion to come in and make arrangements, and specifically instructed the leading maid, "The Seventh Princess cannot eat peanuts. Replace them with the specially prepared milk soup..."
The Seventh Princess cannot eat peanuts. If she gets a little bit of peanuts on her, she will get a rash all over her body. Although it is not serious, she still has to avoid them.
"Can't Jingxuan eat peanuts? How come I don't know?"
Upon hearing this, the emperor looked at Yan Wan in confusion.
Among the princesses in the palace now, the one he cares about the most is Jingxuan, and he visits her the most often. How come he, the emperor, doesn't know about such a big thing?
"In reply to Your Majesty, I was negligent. I only learned about this a few days ago. Jingxuan is young and only started eating slowly before the New Year. A month ago, the wet nurse fed her peanuts for the first time and then realized something was wrong. Fortunately, the imperial physician said it was nothing serious. Your Majesty was busy with government affairs at the time, so I didn't tell you..."
Several concubines, big and small, present at the scene looked at him, lowered their heads slightly, and spoke with a sense of self-blame.
"Your Majesty, the Seventh Princess's rubella is not serious. She just needs to be careful in her daily life. The Imperial Concubine Ling also doesn't want to make Your Majesty worry." After Yan Wan finished speaking, Yi Huan followed up.
Although he said this, his face was cold and he just lowered his head and hugged the Seventh Princess to tease her.
Over the years, time has quietly passed, and the relationship between the two has indeed eased a lot. However, the closeness and deep friendship they once had are like flowing water, which can never be retrieved, and can never return to the way they were before.
The Emperor was born with a proud and arrogant disposition. He was high and mighty, and he would not easily bow his head. Over the years, it seemed that only the affection between the two of them remained, that of monarch and subject. The warmth and love they once had was now completely gone.
The emperor nodded slightly, his expression solemn. Then he slowly turned and instructed in a tone that left no room for doubt: "What fault has your concubine committed? She has simply contracted rubella. From now on, you will just need to be more careful and avoid anything that could easily cause illness. Since that's the case, then pass on the order that the wet nurse must take the most careful care of her and not allow any negligence."
After the emperor finished speaking, he gently patted Yanwan's hand, his action full of tenderness and comfort.
Seeing this, Yan Wan nodded obediently, then lowered her head slightly, picked up the peanut cheese carefully made by Concubine Yu, and took a sip.
At that moment, a barely perceptible cunning glint flashed across her eyes.
