Deep Palace Pet Peach Blossom Flawless

Chapter 505 Heartache

The prince said directly, "Just let them pay their respects to the Queen Mother in the outer hall! No need to come in."

The Crown Princess and the First Prince's wife had already anticipated the outcome, after all, this was how they had been living these past few days.

On this day, people came to Fengqi Palace in groups, including concubines from the six palaces, several princesses, and even the second and third princes' wives came to pay their respects again.

A group of concubines in the harem were asked to leave by Ruping, and several princesses were left in the side hall. The Crown Princess and several princes' wives stayed in the outer hall. Even so, they had to stay. The former court and the harem were now keeping an eye on Fengqi Palace. As royal daughters-in-law, they had to pretend.

Even if Lan Qingwu was awake, he would not let them leave. If someone targeted them, the censor would impeach them, which would be a waste of time and effort.

When Fengqi Palace became much quieter, the seventh prince and the seventh princess were driven out by the crown prince. The two of them lingered in the outer hall until Emperor Shenwu arrived in a hurry.

Because of Lan Qingwu's illness, Emperor Shenwu's patience was very poor, but after seeing his youngest son and daughter, he stopped and said, "I greet you. If you have nothing else, please return to your palace!"

People were kneeling on the ground in the outer hall, and Emperor Shenwu felt that the air was turbid.

The Seventh Princess did not dare to act like a spoiled child at this moment. She only raised her head and looked at the Emperor Shenwu, her voice filled with tears: "Father!"

Emperor Shenwu reached out and touched the top of the Seventh Princess's head, then looked at the Seventh Prince: "After returning to the palace, let the imperial physician take your pulses again! Don't run around these few days, and get some rest!"

After saying a few words, Emperor Shenwu had lost all his patience. He just waved his hand, without even looking at the Crown Princess and several other princes' wives kneeling on the ground, and turned to go into the bedroom.

After a while, the prince was also "invited" out. The prince's face was not very good. He stood at the door of the outer hall. In order to allow air circulation, Nie Wushuang specifically reminded Ruping to change the gauze curtain at the door to a light and thin one. At this time, the prince stood at the door and could vaguely see the movements of Emperor Shenwu's hands.

Emperor Shenwu gently wiped the cold sweat from Lan Qingwu's forehead. As if they had telepathic connection, Lan Qingwu, who had been drowsy for a whole day, finally opened his eyes.

However, the medicine that Lan Qingwu drank helped him sleep, so even if he forced himself to open his eyes, he didn't have the strength to speak.

A smile spread across the lips of the Shenwu Emperor, and he said softly, "Awake? Would you like some porridge?"

Lan Qingwu certainly had no appetite. She shook her head, her face pale and weak, which made Emperor Shenwu feel heartbroken.

Emperor Shenwu stretched out his arms and hugged Lan Qingwu in his arms. Lan Qingwu fell weakly into the socket of Emperor Shenwu's shoulder.

"Is it hard?"

Lan Qingwu felt very uncomfortable, it was as if she had returned to her youth, when she was still young and knew the true identity of the young Yun Heng. She was sick, and she hated not being in this world.

Lan Qingwu hummed softly: "Brother Heng, you're here. If you stay with Ruo Ruo like this every day, will you be infected by Ruo Ruo? Ruo Ruo also knows that you have been very busy recently."

Emperor Shenwu stroked Lan Qingwu's black hair again and again, comforting his lover: "I'm not busy! How can I be at ease if you keep sleeping like this every day?"

Lan Qingwu lost her spirits again after just a few words. She was almost as fragile as if she had returned to the age of fourteen.

"Brother Heng, I feel so bad! Can you please not leave?"

Emperor Shenwu hurriedly said: "I will not leave!"

Then the Emperor Shenwu realized that Lan Qingwu was a little confused because he choked up and begged in a low voice: "Brother Heng, don't go! You must be lying to me! How can you be a prince!"

Emperor Shenwu's heart was beating so fast that it almost exploded: "Weak!"

"Don't go! If you leave, Ruo Ruo will never see you again! Didn't you promise Ruo Ruo that you would stay with Ruo Ruo until she turned fifteen, and after she got married, you would protect her and we would never be apart again?"

Emperor Shenwu hugged Lan Qingwu tightly: "Okay, we will never separate again!"

Lan Qingwu was in a trance, her memory was temporarily confused. She said only a few words and then closed her eyes again.

Emperor Shenwu frowned tightly, and the skin his palm touched was still warm.

Emperor Shenwu hugged Lan Qingwu, and Lan Qingwu finally fell asleep again, but Emperor Shenwu still couldn't help but gently closed his eyes.

Outside the door, the prince had already left as ordered. The moment the princess stood up, she saw the two figures hugging each other. Their shadows, separated by the gauze curtain, were so vague that they moved people's hearts.
