Chapter 425: Send flowers

The lotus in Taiyechi is blooming, and the lotus leaves in the sky, red or white flowers, rush to bloom, making Taiyechi extraordinarily beautiful.
At this time in previous years, the concubines would always take a boat tour of the lake, which was so lively. This year the flower is somewhat lonely without the viewers. Because the emperor was ill, the people below dared not suggest swimming in the lake.
Princess Jinggui walked through the Drunk Flower Tower and saw the beautiful lotus leaves on the lake. The breeze was blowing, and the lotus fragrance was bursting. It was very touching. She and the people beside her said: "It is so good, but there is no People come to appreciate it. It's a pity."
"No, how lively it was in previous years." The grand palace girl beside her echoed.
Another palace lady said: "Will the empress go to the lake by boat?"
Princess Jinggui smiled and waved her hand and said: "The queen mother has not yet swam, so I just got up to swim. But the lotus is really beautiful, and it has a delicate fragrance. Go pick a few branches. Take a bottle and raise it. It’s also good to see.
The princess Jinggui ordered to go down, and at the moment there was an shook the boat to pick the lotus.
After a while, I picked up a large bouquet, some of which were already blooming, and many of them that were about to bloom. Concubine Jinggui prefers white lotus flowers and couldn't help but sniff, and then said: "Send these red ones to Chongqing Palace."
The two little palace ladies returned to Yongshou Palace with the white lotus. The rest followed the royal concubine to Chongqing Palace.
At that time, Li Wei was discussing with the supervisor about the money of the Hui Medical Department. Li Wei initially allocated three hundred taels of silver, and the house was not fully built yet, and the three hundred taels of silver were gone.
"Calculated like this, I'm afraid it will cost 1,000 to build two medical departments. I didn't have any money at all. It was hard to save these. The money is not the trick. Go and check it carefully. I'll look at it later. Detailed accounts, if anyone uses this project to eat money, I know that I will never be merciless." Li Wei was a little angry when he mentioned this.
Seeing that the Queen Mother was angry, Tong An had to serve carefully, so no matter what the Queen Mother said, he kept saying yes.
"Okay, let's do this for today. You will clear the accounts before you come to see me." Li Wei sent Tong An away and drank two sips of tea. At this time, Qingxiang walked and said, "Manny, see you to the noble concubine ."
Why did the princess Jinggui come here at this time, Li Wei secretly said, but soon he ordered: "Send her over."
After a while, the curtain shook. Several people filed in.
"Please peace, Queen Mother." The princess Jinggui bowed and saluted.
Li Wei smiled and said, "The noble concubine is so polite, please start."
Then the royal concubine asked the maid to present the lotus.
When Li Wei saw it, he said with some joy: "The flowers in Taiyechi are already blooming. It can be seen that I am alive and confused. It only took a few days to bloom. I didn't expect it to bloom like this."
"Queen dowager, you have been busy these days and haven't been in for fun. I don't know that the flowers are normal. I thought that the sisters could enjoy the flowers together in the past, but this year the lake can't swim. But you can also enjoy the flowers, so I picked a few branches to show respect. you."
Li Wei thanked him, and ordered people to fetch the vase.
Soon, Qingxiang brought a white porcelain bottle, filled it with water, and inserted the flower into it. The wishful binaural jar in white porcelain, with red flowers, has a unique charm. Li Wei felt that the lotus smells really good, and couldn't help sniffing it.
When Qingxiang asked where to put it, Li Wei said, "The lotus should be offered to the Buddha."
Li Wei asked about Princess Ping and Brother Xi again.
Princess Jinggui replied: "They are all fine, thank you for your concern."
"When the weather is cooler, I invite them to come in and move around."
Princess Jinggui smiled and said yes.
Then he talked about the prosperous legs.
"I saw our emperor walking around in the yard yesterday. It's a lot better, right?"
"Still recovering slowly, this time the fall was a little serious, and the imperial doctor said that it would not get better in three or two months." Li Wei couldn't help feeling a little worried.
Concubine Jinggui heard: "It is said that we have been injured for a hundred days. It seems that our emperor has to rest for a hundred days before we can. The emperor is young, a little ignorant, and has no foresight of danger, but the people around him If you didn’t serve the emperor well, and let the emperor suffer this serious injury, there is also an inescapable responsibility. It stands to reason that these people should be punished severely. Why are you not punished the queen mother? In this way, even if they are afraid that it is not good, they are less restrained. I’m afraid I’ll be even less conscientious in future errands."
"Punishment? The emperor suffered this disaster but it was his own business. Whoever allowed him to do it would be a long lesson. It is normal for a child to stumble."
The princess Jinggui heard that she immediately turned around and said: "It is the queen mother who is kind."
The concubine Jinggui gave the flowers, without saying anything else, she left after sitting in front of her for a cup of tea.
Li Wei didn't care about it either. After the noble concubine left, she still dealt with the matter before her.
After a while, Mr. Wu from Shangshufu came and said he wanted to see Li Wei.
Li Wei secretly asked if something happened at home, otherwise he wouldn't let the manager come.
After Mr. Wu came in, he asked Li Wei to Ann, and then said: "Report to the Queen Mother, the second master is ill."
Li Wei was surprised: "What about father's illness? What kind of illness? Has anyone seen it before?"
Manager Wu said again: "The doctor said it was a stroke, and he is lying in bed unable to move."
Stroke? In this era, a stroke can be fatal, and Li Wei's heart is throbbing. No wonder the eyelids can't stop jumping yesterday afternoon. It seems that something is going to happen.
After she found out, she sent someone to ask the doctor Lu to visit Li's house, and asked Li Xing to go back home to take care of her sick father. Her current status is a shackle, and she has to go through a series of procedures if she wants to return to her parents' house, which is really cumbersome.
Grand Doctor Lu immediately followed Manager Wu to the Li Mansion, and returned to his life after half an hour.
"Ms. Li, Bachelor Lee has woken up, but he can no longer move in bed. The situation is still a bit fierce."
Li Wei heard that he was anxious: "Do everything he can to heal."
This night she was lying on the bed and couldn't fall asleep, and finally fell asleep, but dreamed that Zhao Qian was robbed on the way halfway, and she couldn't save her while watching. Later, when she dreamed of her father's fierce letter, she cried in her dream, crying, and could hear the sound of the violin faintly. But the sound was too far and vague.
When she woke up, the tent was completely dark, but she couldn't sleep anymore.
She put on her clothes and sat up, and the snoring sound of Lan Hui on the Luohan bed came out. She did not wake Lan Hui.
Without seeing his fingers, Li Wei sat in the dark night. She decided to wait until dawn and then go home. She always felt uneasy if she didn't.
When Lan Hui opened her eyes, she saw that the Queen Mother was sitting on the edge of the bed neatly. She was surprised: "When did you wake up, Queen Mother?"
Li Wei said: "I wake up in the middle of the night and can't sleep anymore."
"Then the queen mother should also wake up the servant."
For Li Wei, this is not important anymore. She simply said to Lan Hui: "Tell me down, I want to go back to Shangshufu, and all rituals are kept simple."
