The paranoid prince is crazy, but I have been quietly reborn

Chapter 106 The Palace Made Her Kneel and Think About Her Mistakes

In the study room in the inner courtyard of Caiyue Pavilion.

On a soft couch in the back, a woman with a sickly face was half leaning on the soft pillow.

The window lattice next to her was slightly opened, and the breeze blowing in from time to time caused the sick woman on the slump to cover her mouth and cough lightly.

At this time, Princess Nanxiang was sitting sideways on the rug, and when she heard Concubine Zhe coughing on the rug, she pulled up the thin blanket covering her with a worried expression, her tone full of worry.

"Auntie, it's autumn and the wind is cool, let someone close the windows."

After entering the palace for more than ten years, even though she left home with resentment in her heart, the company of Concubine Zhe and the concubine Zhe's doting on her over the past ten years have already wiped away the hatred in her heart.

She was also afraid that Concubine Zhe would be gone, leaving her alone in the palace with nothing to rely on.

A smile appeared on Concubine Zhe's pale face, and she patted the back of Nan Xiang's hand lightly.

"No need, it's not like you don't know that my aunt's cough is an old problem, and it has nothing to do with the cool breeze."

"Furthermore, if you are trapped in the Caiyue Pavilion all day long, if you don't allow you to breathe, it's not like you're going to suffocate my aunt."

Nan Xiang laughed, picked up the medicine on the side, and persuaded him softly.

"Auntie, this medicine is no longer hot, drink it quickly so you can rest."

The black concoction in the medicine bowl exuded a bitter taste, and Concubine Zhe frowned as soon as she smelled it.

"I don't know how much I drank these medicines, and Bengong's illness is not cured, so it's better not to drink it."

Nan Xiang had long been used to Concubine Zhe's refusal every time she took medicine, she smiled and picked up a plate of candied dates, and coaxed her patiently.

"Aunt, don't be like a child. Good medicine tastes bad, and it will be useful after taking it."

Concubine Zhe looked at Nan Xiang with gentle eyes.

The milk dumpling had been with her for more than ten years when she was young, and now she has grown into a graceful girl, she said dotingly.

"You, you actually started preaching to your aunt."

Seeing that Concubine Zhe was in good spirits today, Nan Xiang also laughed.

On the day she returned to the palace from Prince Yu's Mansion, Chu Yu left her in the busy market because of Su Youning.

On the way back to the palace, she kept thinking that she should immediately ask Concubine Zhe to agree to her marrying into Prince Yu's mansion. If Concubine Zhe disagreed, she even thought of asking the emperor.

It was only when she returned to Caiyue Pavilion that she realized that Concubine Zhe was ill again. Concubine Zhe did not agree with her wanting to marry Chu Yu, but now that she was ill again, Nan Xiang naturally did not dare to mention this matter again.

All I can do is hope that Concubine Zhe gets better soon, so that she can finalize the marriage sooner.

The maid Cui'er bowed in and reported after saluting.

"Your Majesty, princess, His Royal Highness Prince Yu has brought Princess Yu here."

When Chu Yu was mentioned, Nan Xiang instantly beamed with joy, but when she heard that Chu Yu was leading Su Youning, her face darkened again.

Concubine Zhe also had a hint of joy on her sickly and pale face, she raised her hand and said.

"Invite them to come in."

Chu Yu's mother and concubine Concubine Yu and Concubine Zhe are both former residents of Qiandi, and the two have a close relationship, so Chu Yu often came to Caiyue Pavilion when he was young.

After Concubine Yu's accident, although Chu Yu's temperament changed drastically, because of Nan Xiang's relationship, he still kept in touch with Caiyue Pavilion.

Over the years, although the relationship between Chu Yu and Concubine Zhe was not particularly close, it was still a reliance in the Lonely Palace.

Nan Xiang lowered his eyes, holding the medicine bowl, with a hint of joy in his tone.

"Auntie, brother Yu and the others are here, you should drink the medicine first, and the medicine will be even colder if you can talk later."

Concubine Zhe sighed, took the medicine bowl and drank it down with a frown, Nan Xiang took the medicine bowl with only a little medicine dregs left, and handed over the candied dates.

The sweet taste spread out in her mouth, and the painful look on Concubine Zhe's face finally dissipated a little.

Su Youning pushed Chu Yu and walked in slowly.

Concubine Zhe looked at them tenderly.

"Yu'er is here, let me take a look."

"Well... Sure enough, with the care of the princess, her complexion is much better."

Spotting the woman in palace attire behind Chu Yu, her eyes were slightly bright, and there was a hint of approval between her eyebrows.

"That lovely person behind her is Princess Yu, she is indeed virtuous and dignified."

Chu Yu nodded slightly, showing a rare respect.

"Concubine Zhe."

Su Youning also stepped forward and slightly bowed to salute.

"You Ning has met Concubine Zhe, Madam Wanan."

Concubine Zhe smiled peacefully, held her hand repeatedly, and her tone was full of joy.

"Get up, get up, Bengong's frail body is making you laugh."

After they finished saluting, Princess Nanxiang saluted Chu Yu with a sweet voice.

"Brother Yu."

Chu Yu smiled back, but this smile was enough to make Nan Xiang jump for joy.

Several people exchanged pleasantries, but Su Youning was the only one who kept staring at the medicine bowl on Concubine Zhe's soft cupboard.

There were still some medicine dregs left in the medicine bowl, and a slight bitter taste wafted from there.

Su Youning smelled the medicine, and then glanced at Concubine Zhe, who coughed slightly from time to time, she probably knew what the problem was, but she still needed to check the pulse for further confirmation.

She leaned slightly and whispered in Chu Yu's ear.

"You Ning already knows what's going on with Concubine Zhe's illness."

Chu Yu raised his eyebrows slightly, and a smile appeared on the corner of his lips.

It took only a moment to enter the study, but Chu Yu couldn't help feeling a little admiration for Su Youning to find the illness so quickly.

Su Youning leaned over to talk to Chu Yu, but Chu Yu's gentle smile made Nan Xiang, who had been watching them, red-eyed.

Just as she was about to speak, she saw Su Youning slowly approaching, and then saluted gently.

"Madam, seeing that you are pale, can you let You Ning check your pulse?"

Concubine Zhe's eyes were startled, and then she smiled gently.

"Princess Yu still understands medical skills?"

Su Youning smiled lightly.

"I know a little bit."

Nan Xiang has long held a grudge against Su Youning, how can she let her show off in front of her aunt and Chu Yu at this moment.

"The imperial concubine's illness is taken care of by the imperial physician in the imperial hospital, so the princess doesn't have to worry about it."

Concubine Zhe frowned gently, and reprimanded in a low voice.

"Nanxiang must not be rude."

Nan Xiang still sat on the soft bed with a cold face, and stopped talking after hearing Concubine Zhe's words.

Su Youning knew that the princess was hostile to her, but she didn't expect that she would stop her aunt's illness. Just as she was about to speak, Chu Yu behind her said calmly.

"The concubine in this hall is very skilled in medicine, maybe she can really relieve your empress a little bit."

Now that Chu Yu had opened his mouth, there were no more blocking voices in the study.

Concubine Zhe said with a light smile.

"It's hard for you to still think about this illness of this palace. Since that's the case, I'll trouble Princess Yu."

Su Youning smiled, and slowly stepped forward to take out the pocket medicine bag from the wide sleeve, and gently put the silk handkerchief on Concubine Zhe's wrist.

After taking the pulse seriously, Su Youning's brows gradually frowned, and she sniffed carefully with the medicine bowl that she had already drunk, and then put the medicine bowl down.

"Is your lady weak all day long, sweating all over when she moves, and feeling cold, coughing and insomnia when she gets sick?"

After listening to Su Youning's description, Concubine Zhe's expression gradually became dignified.

"It's exactly what you said."

Su Youning nodded slightly, and took back the silk handkerchief.

"Can you give You Ning the prescription of the imperial physician every time you get sick."

Concubine Zhe coughed lightly again, Nan Xiang frowned slightly and stepped forward to pat Concubine Zhe on the back, saying displeased.

"My aunt's prescriptions are all put away by the nurse in charge, Gusu."

When it came to Madam Gusu, Nan Xiang realized that he hadn't seen Madam Gusu.

"Auntie, Nanxiang is going to ask Cui'er to come in and ask."

Chu Yu, who was leaning back in the wheelchair with a lazy face, spoke lightly.

"There's no need to call Tweety, Mother Gusu is disrespectful to the concubine, and this palace made her kneel at the gate of the inner courtyard to think about it."
