第522章 睿王妃还懂医术？
皇上摇了摇头：“朕确实该立太子了……朕亏欠皇后，也亏欠亦儿……只可惜亦儿这身子……朕需得早些找一个能在朕驾崩之后也愿意善待他的人……”
“皇上切莫这样想，您身子骨健朗，必能长命百岁。”高公公忙安慰道。
“这话朕早就听腻味了，朕不惧死亡，只是眼下还有些事情放心不下。”
皇上清楚自己的身体，这些年他的身子早就垮了。
如今也只是面上看着还算硬朗罢了，实际上什么样他骗的了别人却骗不了自己。
然后皇上望着远处，有些出神地低喃道：“要说有什么惧怕的，应是怕死后见了她，不知如何向她请罪。”
高公公连忙劝慰道：“皇上切莫自责当年徐国公府的事情皇上您也是被蒙在鼓里的，如今真相已经大白，皇后娘娘泉下有知，也定已原谅皇上了……”
皇上苦笑道：“她性子那般高烈，如何能轻易原谅得了朕？她定会怪朕当年一开始没能查明真相，没能护住她的父亲兄弟她定是不会愿意再见到朕的……”
“皇上，皇后娘娘从来是嘴硬心软的，你忘了她从前赶您出房门，都会悄摸着让咱家给皇上您拿件斗篷的。哪怕说不理你，也会偷摸让御膳房给你做上药膳！”
高公公的话让皇上陷入了回忆当中，不由地自言自语地述说起了往事。
“年少之时，女人于朕不过是用来平衡朝局之物，与她们孕育子嗣同样是为了稳固朝堂。她初入后宫之时，是那般桀骜，甚至不愿让朕留宿，朕那时便也不想搭理她，不想在她身上多费心思。”
听到皇上说起这些话，高公公便安静地在一旁聆听了起来。
This is the first time that the emperor has told him about this past. Whenever something reminds him of this past, the emperor will inevitably bring it up. This has been the case for the past nineteen years.
From the beginning when the emperor and empress were at odds with each other, to one day when he began to fall in love with her, and then to the end when he became the only one he favored.
Outsiders thought that the emperor only favored the queen at that time, in order to reassure the Xu family in the border area. However, they did not know that the emperor only thought that way at the beginning, but during the back and forth collision between the two, the emperor became sincere.
That year, the emperor really fell into trouble.
Then that incident happened. Even though the evidence of Duke Xu's rebellion was conclusive, the emperor couldn't bear to abolish the queen. He just wanted to send the queen to Jing'an Temple to recuperate, and wanted to take the queen back after the storm subsided.
Who would have thought that the queen died before the emperor could pick her up, and even the child she gave birth to died.
After that, the emperor no longer favored other women in the harem. In the harem where princes and princesses were born one after another, no concubines became pregnant after Queen Xu left.
At this point, everyone finally believed that the emperor was really moved by Empress Xu.
How deep this love is, no one can say.
"That's all, let's stop here for today."
His thoughts returned, and the emperor no longer had the intention to continue working.
The emperor put aside the pile of memorials and stood up. Eunuch Gao hurriedly helped him in front of the mountain.
At this moment, the young father-in-law outside tiptoed to report: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness Prince Rui and Princess Rui have come into the palace." "Why are they here?" The emperor stopped, paused, and then came back
. When they got to their seats, he said, "Let them come to the imperial study."
Then the emperor asked Eunuch Gao to bring a chair and put it on the side of his desk.
Eunuch Gao was smiling all over his face, and it was obvious that the emperor had a completely different attitude towards Prince Rui than towards other princes.
Even before Prince Rui arrived, the emperor had the chair ready. How could anyone else get such treatment? Being given a seat is already a great gift!
After waiting for a while, Wei Jinyi and Wei Ruo came to the imperial study room together.
"No need to be polite." The emperor said before Wei Jin could also salute.
He looked at Wei Jinyi with kind eyes, and his attitude towards Wei Ruo was also very good.
"Give me a seat." The emperor continued.
Wei Ruo helped Wei Jinyi and asked him to sit down in the position he had prepared.
Wei Ruo himself stood behind Wei Jinyi on the left.
After Wei Jinyi sat down, the emperor looked at Wei Jinyi closely, and then said with some relief: "Yi'er looks good today." "The
princess has taken good care of her." Wei Jinyi replied.
The emperor looked up at Wei Ruo and praised, "Princess Rui is thoughtful."
"This is what a concubine should do." Wei Ruo replied.
The emperor then asked Wei Jinyi: "Why did Yi'er come to see me today? If it's not something important, just let someone know. There's no need to make the trip in person." Wei Jinyi replied:
" I have something to worry about, so I brought the princess here..."
After saying that, Wei Jin also turned to look at Wei Ruo beside him.
The emperor also followed Wei Jinyi's gaze and asked, "What's the matter?"
Wei Ruo replied, "I made a tonic for the prince before, to help him replenish his qi and blood, strengthen his body and strengthen his body. The prince took it." It is effective. His Majesty misses his father, so he wants to offer this medicine to him."
The emperor looked at Wei Ruo, with a kind face and said: "Princess Rui, does she know some medical skills?"
Wei Ruo replied: "I only know a little bit about it. One or two, this prescription was left by Dr. Xu. I only know that people with this kind of physical weakness are very effective in taking this medicine." The
emperor said: "I didn't know that Princess Rui had such ability before. You I am amazed by your craftsmanship, and in addition to the fact that you discovered new rice seeds in Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas to benefit the people, you really surprised me again and again."
Because Wei Ruo had already given the emperor quite a surprise, this time, Wei Ruo just said that she had some knowledge of medical skills, and the emperor couldn't help but praise her again and again.
"I am scared. It is my great honor to be able to solve the emperor's worries." Wei Ruo replied.
"You don't have to be humble. If you are a man, I will definitely let you enter the court and serve as an official, so that you can show your talents and benefit all people." The emperor said.
"I'm afraid, I don't dare to be a concubine." Wei Ruo lowered his head.
Wei Jin also picked up the topic again: "My son, I kindly ask my father to allow the princess to diagnose your pulse to ensure that my father is suitable for taking the medicine left by the miracle doctor Xu." The emperor did not respond immediately, but looked at
Wei Ruo.
After pondering for a while, he said: "Okay, I will make an exception and let Princess Rui make a diagnosis."
After hearing this, the thoughtful Eunuch Gao went to get the pulse pillow and asked the emperor to place his wrist on the pulse pillow.
Wei Ruo tiptoed to the emperor, arched his body, carefully stretched out his hand, and felt for the emperor's pulse.
