Chapter 521: Taking care of the Emperor’s health_1
Wei Jinyi abruptly stopped and turned to look at the hand holding his arm.
“Second brother, is there any way for me to enter the pce to take care of the Emperor’s health?” Wei Ruo asked abruptly.
“To take care of the Emperor’s health?”
“Yes, to nurse his health. I think the Emperor’s health has not been very good these past years. If Chu Lan exposes the truth from back in the day in theing days, I’m afraid he will be shocked!” Wei Ruo revealed her concerns.
The Emperor was their shield. As long as the Emperor was in good health, their lives in King Rui Residence would be worry-free.
Wei Ruo knew that the Emperor’s health was currently severelypromised. It was impossible to expect aplete recovery and a long life, but she might be able to dy it for a few years, doing her best to prevent any idents when he was facing the impending massive shock.
Wei Ruo wanted to take care of the Emperor’s health, but she needed an appropriate identity.
Xu Heyou had already died, so naturally, Wei Ruo could not enter the pce as Xu Heyou to treat the Emperor.
Moreover, wanting to take the Emperor’s pulse and prescribe medicine was not an easy matter. It would be impossible for a person with unclear identity and unknown origins to do so, even if this person were brought by King Rui, there would be no exceptions.
Forget about fabricating a new identity, even if she were to use one from before with Xu Heyou’s identity, it would be thoroughly investigated.<div>
Wei Jinyi understood Wei Ruo’s concerns. After thinking for a moment, he said: “If you enter the pce to treat the Emperor, you will inevitably have to put up with some hardships.”
Wei Jinyi knew that Wei Ruo didn’t like the pce, with itsplex rules and oppressive atmosphere which she resisted.
“Even if I’m troubled, it’s worth it if it allows us to live peaceful lives.” Wei Ruo said.
Wei Ruo was still clear about what was important and urgent – she would never avoid any hardships she should endure.
Wei Jinyi frowned, seeing Wei Ruo’s determined look, he understood her intentions.
After a pause, Wei Jinyi continued to ask Wei Ruo: “Are you willing to treat him as yourself?”
Wei Ruo hesitated for a while, then answered: “Yes.”
“Then you will apany me into the pce tomorrow.” Wei Jinyi said.
“Alright.” Wei Ruo agreed.
After finishing speaking, Wei Jinyi didn’t move. Wei Ruo paused for a moment, then lowered her head and found that she was still holding Wei Jinyi’s hand.
Wei Ruo let go quickly, then awkwardly said goodbye to Wei Jinyi: “I… I’ll go first…”
As soon as Wei Ruo finished speaking, she turned around quickly, afraid that Wei Jinyi would call her back.
Wei Ruo, what’s wrong with you? You didn’t used to be so tactless!
Although she asionally joked around to make her second brother blush, that was just for fun!n/?/vel/b//in dot c//om
What’s going on now? She was acting like a lustful person, always touching others, just like a female pervert!

Late at night.
The Qi Family.
Qi Yansong’s study.<div>
Qi Yansong sat in his Huanghuali Imperial Tutor Chair. In front of him, a line of people knelt down, each of them trembling with fear.
News of Chu Lan seeking King Rui outside the city during the day had reached Qi Yansong’s ears.
“Has Sheng Tong really been found by Chu Lan?” Qi Yansong’s voice was like a bell, his face like frost.
“We don’t know.”<div>
The people kneeling on the ground did not dare to lift their heads.
“You’ve been looking for this man for years, and you still have no news.”
“We’re at fault, sir. Sheng Tong is too cunning. He probably saw early on that we would kill him to keep him quiet. He has no traces for these years…”
“You said he has no traces, so you can’t find him. So how did Chu Lan find him?” Qi Yansong’s voice did not change, but the gaze looking at several people was full of killing intent.
“We are ipetent, we should die!”
The several people quickly admitted their mistake.
“I’m giving you onest chance to atone for your mistakes. I don’t want Sheng Tong to see the Emperor alive. I don’t care how you do it, I just want Sheng Tong to shut up forever.” Qi Yansong said.
“Yes, we will carry out the order!”
After the people left, Qi Yansong got up and entered the study, picked up his pen to write a confidential letter, sealed it with wax, and called in his confidant.
“Send this to King Yu Residence now.”
The confidant took the letter and hurried out.

King Rui and his wife’s action of starting a chicken and duck farm outside the city didn’t escape the notice of the Emperor and the various high officials and dignitaries of the royal family.<div>
It was previously rumored that Queen Rui enjoyed farming. Therefore, this action coincided with the previous rumor.
It seemed that she had been conservative when she was in her boudoir, for fear that a bad reputation would affect her future marriage. Now that she was married and a Queen, she let loose, not caring about how others judged her.
It was said that King Rui also cherished her and liked her character, joining her in her mischief.
Moreover, King Rui was in poor health and had no interest in court affairs.
It seemed that this couple was quitepatible.
In the Imperial Study, the Emperorughed after hearing about this: “That’s good, that’s good. As long as he is happy, what else can I ask for? Finding such a Queen really is apt, it seems that Daoist Qianyuan was right! This girl from the Wei family really does match well with my grandson!”
Eunuch Gao echoed: “Yes, Queen Rui is a special woman. If she were to marry into amon household, it would be somewhat inappropriate. But marrying our King Rui is perfectly fitting. As a member of the royal family, she personally cultivates thend. She is a role model for women and an example for the people.”
“Yes, nowadays, there are many ces where crops are insufficient. Queen Rui leads by example, initiates farming, and raises chickens, which is indeed a good example. The recent reports from Jiangzhe Prefecture state that this autumn’s harvest in Jiangzhe Road will be plentiful, and Queen Rui has also made significant contributions. She is indeed suited to be my Royal Daughter-inw and even a role model for all the women in the world!” the Emperor evaluated.
After saying this, the Emperor’s eyes shed with a hint of regret, as if he had thought of something.
“This year’s harvest in Jiangzhe was bountiful, bringing a lot of grains to the national treasury. The Emperor doesn’t need to worry too much about food.” Eunuch Gao quickly changed the subject.
“It’s only Jiangzhe that’s doing well. Other ces are constantly sending me reports of insufficient harvests! Look at these memos requesting disaster relief funds, they’re piling up like mountains! I still don’t know who to assign to manage these matters!”
When he thought about the disaster situation, the Emperor’s mood was not very good.
Eunuch Gao quickly came forward tofort him and served the Emperor some ginseng tea.<div>
“Emperor, have a sip of ginseng tea and take a rest. You’ve been reviewing these memorials all afternoon.”
The Emperor sighed: “I used to hand over part of the memorials to the Cab for review and didn’t need my approval earlier, which really saved a lot of energy. Now that I’ve taken them back again, it besborious.”
“Emperor, your health is important. If you feel tired, find another person to help you.”
Eunuch Gao said this, and the Emperor stared at him sharply.
Eunuch Gao immediately felt fear: “Emperor….”
The Emperor sighed: “Are you urging me to establish a Crown Prince?”
Eunuch Gao hastily replied: “This servant dares not. What this servant means is that if the people in the Cab are not trustworthy, the Emperor can find another person to help with reviewing the memorials.”
