Chapter 132: The Child is Too Young to Be Kept
Chapter 132: The Child is Too Young to Be Kept
The palace maid helped the queen in. Although Ye Qingge had seen the queen more than once, she couldn't help but sigh in her heart at this moment. The queen was indeed graceful and had the aura of a mother of the country.
She hurried forward and saluted the queen
"Your servant Ye Qingge pays homage to Her Majesty the Queen"
"Miss Ye, there's no need to be so polite. Please get up quickly."
The queen supported her, which made her flattered.
"Thank you, Queen."
Ye Qingge quickly stood up. The palace was really different from the outside world. She had to kneel down and salute at every turn. Her knees were probably going to be broken.
The Queen came to the bedside and asked the Prince
"How's Ye'er?"
"Mother, Miss Ye just checked my legs. She said she can heal them, but it will take a while."
"really?"
The Queen looked at Xiao Lingye behind the curtain in disbelief and then at Ye Qingge.
"Her Majesty, the prince's legs can be cured. However, the toxins have been deposited in his legs for too long, so it will take a long time to expel the toxins."
Ye Qingge started to talk nonsense. She had no choice but to say this because she was threatened. She remembered Xiao Lingche had told her that the prince's legs were poisoned and that was why he couldn't walk.
The queen's eyes were already filled with tears.
"That's great, Ye'er, your leg can be healed."
"I'm sorry, mother, for making you worry."
The queen shook her head and said that she would do anything as long as her son could walk normally.
Ye Qingge couldn't bear to see the queen sad. The prince was really something. If he was fine, why didn't he tell others? He even hid it from his own mother.
Was he afraid of secondary harm? But he wasn't a child anymore, so no one should be able to hurt him now. Or was he planning something serious?
"Miss Ye, I'm sorry to bother you. If you need anything, just tell me."
The Queen said to Ye Qingge sincerely
"Your Majesty, don't worry. I will do my best to heal the prince."
At this moment, she could see the concern of a mother for her child. The queen was so beautiful when she looked at her closely. She just looked a little tired because of excessive worry.
"Okay, okay, I believe you, come here."
The Queen beckoned Ye Qingge to come to her side. Ye Qingge didn't know what the Queen was going to do, but she went over too.
The Queen made a gesture and the maid standing in the distance came over with a box.
The queen opened the box, took out a jade bracelet, took Ye Qingge's hand, and put it on her.
This is the girl Ye'er likes, so as a mother, she has to show her appreciation.
"I didn't expect this jade bracelet to fit you so well and look so beautiful on you."
Ye Qingge was horrified when she saw the jade bracelet that the queen put on her.
"Your Majesty, this is unacceptable. I cannot accept it."
But the queen pressed her hand
"Miss Ye, do you dislike this bracelet of mine? Don't worry, this jade bracelet is made of the finest material imported from Southeast Asia. I have kept it in a box and have been reluctant to wear it. Now that I am old, I don't need to wear it anymore. I am giving it to you now. Please don't refuse it, otherwise I will be sad."
Ye Qingge quickly said
"No, no, no, Her Majesty, you misunderstood. I just feel that I should not accept any reward without merit. I am flattered by Her Majesty's kindness."
"You have treated Ye'er and have worked hard. How can it be in vain? Just accept it and consider it as a token of my gratitude."
Ye Qingge couldn't refuse the kindness, so she had to accept it. If she refused it again, she would be ungrateful.
"Then I will accept it. Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Um"
The queen looked at her and nodded with satisfaction
"I have another favor to ask, Miss Ye, please agree to it."
"Your Majesty, please speak."
"Please keep the fact that you came to the palace to treat Ye'er a secret. I will tell others that I asked you to treat my headache. Miss Ye, please understand."
"I understand, Your Majesty, please rest assured."
"Well, what a good boy."
This matter really cannot be known to others, especially if Xiao Lingche knew about it, I don't know what he would think. After all, he is so jealous that he might stop her.
So even if the Queen didn't tell her, she wouldn't tell anyone. But the problem is that the Prince's leg is obviously healed. Is she supposed to chat with the Prince every day? Just staring blankly? What's going on?
"If you are alright, please return. Miss Ye still needs to treat me."
Xiao Lingye urged, he had been sitting in the same position for a long time, his legs were almost numb, and with the Queen here, he couldn't be alone with Ye Qingge.
How could the Queen not know what he was thinking? Was she feeling like she was getting in the way? It was true that a grown-up child should not be kept. However, she only glared at him lovingly.
"Okay, okay, I'll leave now and won't keep you two away."
She patted Ye Qingge's hand gently and looked at her with a meaningful smile.
"Ye'er, I'm sorry to trouble Miss Ye."
"Your Majesty, please don't say that. As a doctor, this is what I should do."
The queen nodded, said nothing more, and looked at the prince again before leaving with peace of mind.
"Farewell to Her Majesty the Queen"
Ye Qingge saluted, and after she left, Ye Qingge stood up straight and looked at the queen's back as she walked away.
I didn't expect that the Queen is so beautiful and kindhearted, and she doesn't have the temperament of a vicious woman. It's really rare.
Xiao Lingye watched Ye Qingge staring at the Queen's back, wondering what she was thinking?
"Did Mother scare you just now?"
Ye Qingge came to her senses after hearing the prince's words and quickly replied
"No, I think the Queen is kind and beautiful."
Xiao Lingye's frown relaxed and he said with a smile
“I’m glad you didn’t get scared.”
"Your Highness, since your leg is fine, can I still prescribe this medicine?"
"Of course we have to open it. We have to make the performance more realistic."
"Oh, that's fine. I'll write out the prescription now and have the palace maids prepare the necessary herbs. Also, you have insufficient Qi and blood, so you need to replenish them first. To replenish Qi and blood, you need to adjust your diet. I'll also write a food list, and you can have the palace maids prepare your meals according to the list I wrote."
"Okay, Miss Ye, just make the arrangements. I'll listen to you."
Ye Qingge suddenly felt that the Crown Prince was too well-behaved and easy to talk to. She was no longer nervous at this moment. She felt that the Crown Prince should be a person with a good personality.
Xiao Lingye couldn't sit still in bed any longer, but he didn't dare to show up. He was afraid that Ye Qingge was so smart that she would recognize him.
"Miss Ye, are you hungry? Come and have a meal with me here."
"Okay, thank you, Your Highness."
She was really hungry, so she didn't refuse.
Although they had agreed to eat together, the palace servants pulled a screen in the middle, and the two of them ate separately, one inside and one outside.
She originally wanted to see the Crown Prince's true appearance.
"Your Highness, why don't you come out and eat with me?"
She's so curious.
Xiao Lingye watched Ye Qingge eat quietly through the screen. He didn't expect her to ask
"I'm ugly and I'm afraid I'll scare Miss Ye."
Ugly? Not really. With the Emperor and Empress' looks, it's impossible for them to give birth to an ugly child.
If you don't want to show it, then don't show it. And you're still making excuses. Humph
