Chapter 588 Is there any cure?
"Don't talk nonsense. God can't take you away. I will definitely hold your hand tightly and won't let you leave me."
"Okay~" Bu Hanci smiled charmingly.
Xuanyuan Hong was stunned. He had witnessed this scene accidentally that year, and it was deeply engraved in his heart. Since then, that beautiful figure has been lingering in his mind.
"Father, Emperor, and Mother, Empress!" Xuanyuan Gen interrupted the romantic atmosphere in the hall.
Xuanyuan Hong glared at Xuanyuan Gen in anger: "Gen'er started crying as soon as he saw me just now. I thought something happened to you."
Xuanyuan Gen was extremely embarrassed and quickly made excuses for himself: "Father, I was just blinded by the wind and sand. I didn't cry."
"Hmph, where did the wind and sand come from in the inner courtyard of the imperial palace? Why didn't I feel it?" He was almost scared to death just now. It was all the fault of this rebellious son.
Xuanyuan Gen was choked and had no words to refute, while Fu Ling watched with great interest.
Only then did Xuanyuan Hong realize her existence: "Ling'er, do you know your mistake?"
The smile on his face had not yet disappeared, and he pointed at himself uncertainly: "Huh? Me? What's wrong?"
Her mind was still in a state of panic, and she wasn't thinking about anything else at all.
"You disappeared without a reason and made your mother worry about you. Do you know your mistake?"
So that's what it was. Fu Ling said with a playful smile, "Father, I know I was wrong. Mother, I have also made a deep self-reflection."
Her acting skills are unparalleled. If she were to work in the entertainment industry, she would definitely be very successful.
"Is this the attitude of admitting a mistake?" Xuanyuan Hong didn't buy it, and the rebuke was obvious.
What? Fu Ling was confused. Did this mean he was going to be punished? So... "Father, I truly know I was wrong. I have no complaints about any punishment you desire."
He looked at Bu Hanci pitifully. The only one who could control the emperor here was this cheap mother.
After receiving Fu Ling's distress signal, Bu Hanci's smile deepened. She tugged at Xuanyuan Hong's clothes and said, "Alright, the child knows she's wrong. Give her a chance. When has Your Majesty ever seen Ling'er admit her mistakes on her own initiative? Why not give her this chance?"
"Ling'er, do you really know you are wrong?" Xuanyuan Hong looked at Fu Ling with sharp eyes.
"Yes! Father, I truly know my mistake and will never make you worry again."
"In that case, considering your mother's plea for mercy, I will forgive you for this incident. If you behave so willfully again next time, I will have you confined to the palace and let you reflect on your actions."
This confinement might have been lethal to Xuanyuan Ling in the past, but for Fu Ling, it was completely meaningless. Of course, she was not stupid enough to show it, and quickly expressed her determination: "Father, I will definitely change my ways and never get into trouble again."
Xuanyuan Hong's expression finally softened. "In the future, come to Fengci Palace more often to accompany your mother. Don't always think about going out to play. Fortunately, your mother is fine this time. If anything happens to her because of you, I will never forgive her."
"I understand." She saw through it all. The emperor only had eyes for the empress. Emperors have always been ruthless, but the one in front of her was a lovesick man.
"Alright, Ling'er, you all know your mistakes. Go back and take care of state affairs."
"Yes, yes, Father, please go and do your work. I will accompany Mother."
"Well, you should stay here today and have lunch with your mother."
"As ordered!"
"It's Father."
Xuanyuan Hong looked at Bu Hanci with reluctance, feeling anxious but not showing it: "Queen, I will come to see you after I finish my work. If you feel unwell, please let me know."
"Okay, if I feel even slightly unwell, I'll have someone notify His Majesty. Go quickly, state affairs are urgent."
How could state affairs be more important than her life? It was not worth mentioning at all. He just learned that the man had died and the queen's life was also counting down. He needed to find a way to save her as soon as possible.
"I'm leaving first." After saying that, he left in a hurry.
Encountering Lu Beichen in deep thought at the entrance of the harem, Lu Liang was about to salute him but was stopped by Xuanyuan Hong.
He slowly approached Lu Beichen, but the other party seemed to be so engrossed in his thoughts that he didn't notice his approach at all.
In fact, Lu Beichen had already seen the approaching red dot on the light screen, but he just didn't want to pay attention to it.
"Ahem!" Seeing that the other party had not discovered him for a long time, Xuanyuan Hong had to break the silence.
Lu Beichen withdrew his thoughts, as if he had just noticed his presence, and prepared to salute the emperor.
"No need to be polite. Let me ask you, can you see anything wrong with the Queen? Answer honestly, I want to hear the truth!" He stared straight into Lu Beichen's eyes, as if trying to tell whether his words were true or not.
"Your Majesty, I have indeed discovered something unusual in Your Majesty's health."
"How did you know that?"
"I have traveled all over the country and stayed in Miaojiang for a while..."
"Okay! No need to say more!" Xuanyuan Hong's eyes suddenly lit up, as if he saw hope.
He immediately gave the eunuch chief a look, and the eunuch chief understood and immediately began to clear the area.
After no one else was around, he asked quietly, "Do you have any cure?"
"Yes! I have already given the recipe to Her Royal Highness. It will be painful, but as long as you can endure it, Your Highness will be safe."
"Really?"
"Your Majesty, it is absolutely true." Lu Beichen immediately understood that the emperor in front of him must have discovered that the queen was infected with the Yin-Yang Love Gu a long time ago, otherwise he would not have asked him this.
"This matter cannot be known to anyone else. Do you understand? As long as you can save the queen, I can promise you one thing."
"Yes, Your Majesty. I know nothing. The Queen just caught a cold."
Xuanyuan Hong was quite satisfied with Lu Beichen's answer and nodded slightly: "That's very good. You don't have to kneel down and bow to me when you see me in the future."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"But let me be frank. If you can't save the Queen, you will be buried with your actions today."
The emperor's heart is as unfathomable as the sea, and the saying is well-deserved. He just said nice words, and now he starts to threaten. It is really like living with a tiger to serve the emperor. Fortunately, he was born in a peaceful era, where there are not so many twists and turns. How lucky he is.
Lu Beichen imitated Xuanyuan Gen and clasped his hands together in a salute: "Yes."
"Well, you stay in the palace today. I will have someone take you to a place to rest." After saying that, he walked past Lu Beichen and left.
The chief eunuch hurried to catch up. Xuanyuan Hong muttered a few words to him. The chief eunuch glanced at Lu Beichen and immediately agreed.
He gave the emperor's order to the eunuch who was accompanying him. The eunuch came to Lu Beichen and bowed respectfully: "Sir, please follow me. I will take you to rest."
"Thank you, eunuch." Lu Beichen said awkwardly.
"You are too kind, sir." He was a small eunuch of low status and was personally arranged by the emperor. Even if others looked down on him, he could not complain. As a result, not only were the others good-looking, but they also treated him with great courtesy.
