Ruyi's Rebirth: Ruyi's Disease Retreat Retreat

Chapter 318: Scare Zhu Quan; Jing Si wants an ordinary life

"Doctor Zhu."

Zhu Quan turned around and looked in the direction where the sound came from.

"Eunuch Sanbao, are you looking for me?"

Sanbao bowed his head and said, "The Queen Mother invites you to the Yikun Palace."

Zhu Quan lowered his head and followed Sanbao into the Yiku Palace one after another.

Ruyi was sitting on a stone bench in the corridor reading to the children.

When Jing Si saw someone coming in, he stood up and said, "Madam, we are hungry, let's go in and eat."

Yongqi and Yongji also stood up and went in.

Ruyi put down the history book. Zhu Quan was already in front of her. He bowed and said, "Greetings, Her Majesty the Empress."

"Well, Doctor Zhu is really hard-working. He has to take care of Concubine Xin's baby every day, and also take care of everyone in the harem."

Zhu Quan: "Your Majesty, your praise is too much. I cannot accept it. I have only done my duty. I cannot accept your praise."

"You are a humble and intelligent person. I enjoy talking to you."

Zhu Quan asked, "I wonder what the Empress has summoned me to do today."

"Since you know that I have something to tell you, why can't you guess what it is?"

Zhu Quan frowned slightly: "Your Majesty, you are talking about Concubine Xin's pregnancy..."

"If you knew that, you shouldn't have said it so bluntly."

"Your Majesty, please give me your orders. I will do my best to carry them out."

Ruyi raised an eyebrow: "Really? I've only summoned you once, and you're so eager to show your goodwill? This really makes me suspicious."

The sweat on Zhu Quan's forehead could no longer conceal his panic.

Ruyi chuckled softly, "Don't be nervous. I already knew that Xinpin's pregnancy was unstable and that the delivery would be difficult."

"But the person who hurt her is now dead. I think she is pregnant with a royal heir, after all. You should do your best to take care of her. But it's just you. Doctor Jiang won't be taking care of her anymore."

Zhu Quan swallowed his saliva and said, "I understand."

When Zhu Quan came out of the Yiku Palace, he felt relieved. Although the Queen Mother was smiling all the time, the frost in her eyes and the murderous aura around her made him shudder.

This is not the aura a woman should have.

Instead, it seems like the aura of an emperor.

How did she manage to hide a knife behind her smile?

Zhu Quan took a deep breath. This was not something that a mere imperial physician like him could fathom.

It is better for him to do his own job well, at least he can save his life. He really regrets coming to the palace now, and he also knows why Qi Ru did not have a good end.

Jingsi came out only after seeing Zhu Quan leave.

"Empress Mother, why are you scaring him? Look, he's completely frightened."

Ruyi straightened her messy hair and said, "The art of management is to combine kindness and severity. You still have a lot to learn."

Jing Si curled her lips and said, "My Queen Mother, I don't want to get involved in intrigues. Isn't it good to live a simple life?"

Ruyi raised the corners of her lips, her peach blossom eyes curved and full of smiles.

Who wants to live a life of intrigue and scheming? She didn't want to either, but she had to fight.

"Jingsi wanted to live an ordinary life, but you were born into a royal family, so you are destined to have no chance of an ordinary life."

Thinking of Jingsi in her previous life, she still felt very sad.

Now that she has grown up to be so energetic, Ruyi is filled with relief.

But it is also mixed with a lot of anxiety.

She didn't know what Jingsi's future would be like, nor did she know what kind of things she would encounter in the future.

"Empress Dowager, what's wrong with you? You've been in a daze since just now."

Ruyi smiled and replied, "The Empress Dowager is wondering what you will look like in the future."
