Chapter 51: The Imperial Astronomical Observatory scares the emperor, Yongcong gets smallpox
"It's good as long as it's done."
Yanwan gathered her hair into a bun and went into the inner hall.
Yanwan was walking in front and could hear Chunchan and Lancui talking in low voices.
"Is there anything else?"
Lan Cui was a little embarrassed, and Chun Chan pushed Lan Cui.
"Lan Cui said that the Imperial Observatory said that tomorrow is a good day for the queen. I think that someone who is so easily manipulated by us may not be telling the truth."
Yanwan thought about it for a moment and decided that what the Imperial Observatory said might not be false.
Just as this thought was turning around in my mind, Wang Chan outside knocked on the door hurriedly.
“The master is delighted.
News came from Changchun Palace that the Seventh Prince's fever had subsided.
The Emperor asked me to go to the Yangxin Palace for breakfast tomorrow morning."
Chunchan and Lancui looked at Wang Chan in surprise.
I really don't want to close what the Imperial Observatory said.
"It seems that this Imperial Observatory is quite capable."
Yanwan smiled in her heart. Fate really favored her.
"You are blessed, my Lord. The Imperial Observatory is nothing."
Yanwan liked Jinzhong's words even more.
Yanwan waved her hand and let Chunchan and the others go down.
Looking at Jinzhong coquettishly.
"The Imperial Observatory is trying to curry favor with me. Why don't you curry favor with me?"
Jinzhong walked up and touched Yanwan's face.
"Why not? I changed my duty today in order to curry favor with our Lady Ling."
"I hope that Madam Lingpin will not despise me."
Jinzhong deliberately blinked at Yanwan.
Yanwan turned her face away.
"Grumpy."
Jinzhong couldn't let go of Yanwan.
"Then let this slick-tongued servant personally escort Her Majesty to the Yangxin Palace tomorrow. Okay?"
Yanwan shyly patted the seat beside her.
Jinzhong sat down next to Yanwan.
On the second day, Jinzhong personally accompanied Yanwan to the Yangxin Palace.
The Seventh Prince no longer had a high fever, and the Emperor was very happy. As soon as Yan Wan arrived, he happily said to her:
"I've been waiting for you for a while.
Yesterday, after I saw the Empress and then Concubine Jia, I really didn’t have time to go to Yongshou Palace.
Today's lunch is to make up for your birthday, okay?"
Yan Wan smiled and thanked the emperor.
Thinking about getting up early, Jin Zhongfei asked to draw her eyebrows for her.
It is said that everyone is like this.
If Jinzhong hadn't caused this incident, she could have come earlier.
However, the emperor could make up for her birthday, so Yan Wan thought it was no big deal to ask the emperor to wait a while.
"Your eyebrows are well drawn today."
When Yan Wan came to her senses, the emperor happened to praise her eyebrows.
Seeing Jinzhong winking at her, Yanwan smiled.
"As long as Your Majesty likes it. This is something I have just learned recently and I like it very much."
"I like it, too. Let's eat."
The emperor was immersed in the joy that Yan Wan was willing to spend time on him, and asked someone to serve the meal.
As if to reward Yan Wan, the emperor picked up several pieces of food for her.
Yan Wan had just eaten half her fill when Li Yutong announced that the Imperial Observatory had arrived.
"Why is the Imperial Observatory coming here at this time?"
Emperors have always been afraid of celestial fate.
The emperor put down his chopsticks.
"Your Majesty, I have been observing the celestial phenomena day and night recently and have discovered that they are very unusual. A guest star has appeared away from the palace, which indicates that disaster is about to happen to the central palace."
As soon as the Imperial Observatory opened its mouth, it stepped on the emperor's minefield.
Yongcong's high fever had subsided, but the emperor could not forget Qi Ru's hesitancy in answering.
Yongcong was probably a bit bad.
And there is Langya. Yesterday the emperor saw Langya coughing non-stop.
Langya's health seemed to have always been like this since she gave birth to Yongcong.
"Outrageous. Do you know what you are saying?"
The emperor could not accept what the Imperial Observatory said, so even his anger was delayed.
The Imperial Astronomical Observatory was trembling.
"Your Majesty. I am the Imperial Astronomical Observatory. It is my duty to observe the celestial phenomena and eliminate disasters."
"You said there is a way to cure it, please tell us how to cure it quickly. The Queen and the Seventh Prince have suffered from many illnesses."
Yan Wan reminded the emperor. The emperor then said:
"Yes. The Queen and Yongcong have already suffered so much. Is the theory of the celestial phenomenon about to pass?"
"Will the Queen and Yongcong be safe?"
The emperor was so eager for Langya to get better that he was deceiving himself.
The Imperial Observatory quickly followed the emperor's words.
"Your Majesty is right. There is a way to resolve everything. The gods and Buddhas will protect the Empress and the Seventh Prince. I will also pray for the Empress and the Seventh Prince."
"I hope there is a way. I'll leave everything to the Imperial Observatory."
The emperor was relieved to learn the solution.
"Yes. I will pray for the Queen and the Seventh Prince.
Today, the Imperial Concubine Xian also summoned this humble minister, and this humble minister…"
The emperor felt much more relieved when he learned that Langya would be fine.
I didn't care that the Imperial Observatory was going to the Yiku Palace.
He waved his hand to signal the Imperial Observatory to retreat.
"Your Majesty. I am here to deliver you to the Imperial Observatory. I will also take a look at the prayers for the Empress and the Seventh Prince to see if there is anything I can do to help them."
Li Yu suddenly opened his mouth, and the emperor nodded and agreed to Li Yu.
But as soon as Li Yu turned around, the emperor's eyes were covered with a layer of gloom when he looked at Li Yu.
Li Yu went to Yikun Palace with less and less taboo.
"Jinzhong, please take away all these meat dishes."
The noise of Yanwan's orders to Jinzhong woke up the emperor.
"What is this doing?"
"Your Majesty, since the Imperial Observatory has said that they will pray for the Empress, I should do the same.
"From today on, I will fast and not serve the emperor. I will pray for the Seventh Prince and the Empress."
"This way, the emperor can spare more time to go to Changchun Palace."
The emperor's eyes flickered with emotion.
Bathing and fasting. Ordinary people can do it if they want.
It is really rare not to serve the emperor.
Others only regretted that she had seized the opportunity to seduce the emperor so as to find an opportunity for herself early.
"If you don't serve me, don't be afraid that I will forget you."
The emperor said this suddenly.
Yanwan's cheeks turned red.
"Of course I am afraid that the Emperor will forget me.
So I thought about it and asked Jinzhong to send a flower that I picked myself to the emperor every day.
I also offer these flowers to the Buddha every day to pray for the Queen and the Seventh Prince.
Your Majesty and I are very happy to see each other."
The emperor smiled and embraced Yan Wan.
Yanwan snuggled in the emperor's arms, watching Jinzhong gradually retreat.
She thought Jinzhong must understand that she picked those flowers for him to see.
Asking him to send flowers every day is also for the sake of seeing him every day.
Yan Wan kept her word. In the following days, she really stayed in Yongshou Palace every day to pray for Langya and the Seventh Prince.
The emperor felt very comforted when he saw the flowers sent by Yan Wan every day.
On this day, Jinzhong held a branch of osmanthus flowers that Yanwan had just picked. Before he put it in the vase, he heard Zhao Yitai's wailing.
"Your Majesty, it's bad. The Seventh Prince has contracted smallpox."
The emperor ignored Jinzhong who was still arranging flowers. He ignored Jinzhong and questioned Zhao Yitai.
"How come Yongcong got acne?"
"This is no longer the time for pox."
Zhao Yita knelt on the ground desperately.
"Your Majesty, is it the season of smallpox now? But the Baoguo Temple in the capital has taken in some people who have become homeless due to the smallpox."
"Mrs. Fucha believed what the Imperial Observatory said and went to Baoguo Temple every day to seek a talisman for the Seventh Prince."
"No, no, one of them is infected with the pox."
