Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace: Wanwan's Daily Advancement

Chapter 451 Too Weak to Hold On

It was difficult for Hongli to describe how he felt at the moment.

He has always admired people who constantly strive for self-improvement, and despised those useless people who don't help themselves and just complain about nothing.

Yanwan...

She ended up in a desperate situation just because she was scolded by him.

He should have been disgusted, disgusted, or even indifferent and said that she got what she wanted.

But he really couldn't say it, he regretted it very much.

He knew better than anyone that even though she kept falling, she never gave up trying to survive.

She was just...sick.

She had been behaving too well, making him think that she was fine, and that she was no different from a normal person. He was also used to her kindness, so he took it for granted. One time she was not considerate enough, he was met with his wrath.

He was wrong.

He was really wrong.

He gently grasped Yan Wan's hand and asked again, "Is there anything else you can't let go of?"

Yan Wan looked at him with tears in her eyes: "I have never been able to let go of the emperor. The emperor never loves me enough. I want to accompany the emperor for many, many years, but I am really disappointing."

He obviously thought she was dead, that's why he asked so many questions.

And she thought he was confiding in her, so after crawling out of the gates of hell, she also muttered about her cowardice and regret.

The two people, speaking different languages, unexpectedly had a smooth conversation.

Until Jinzhong stood at the door and asked: "Your Majesty, Royal Concubine, if you leave it any longer, the medicine will get cold."

Yan Wan suddenly woke up, feeling extremely ashamed: "I have delayed the time."

Hongli was stunned, his mind full of disbelief for a moment.

Yanwan...is not dead?

Is he dreaming?!

He looked towards the door calmly and saw Jinzhong with red eyes. Although he was very anxious, he didn't dare to come over.

The belated ecstasy and the shame of the misunderstanding made his vision darken again for a moment. He then realized that Yan Wan hadn't noticed it at all, and Jinzhong had just come in and would not have noticed it either. Only then did he feel that he was able to do it again.

He held Yanwan's hand tightly and said to Jinzhong, "Go and get the medicine. I will personally watch the Imperial Concubine drink it."

Then he asked, "Where is the queen?"

Jinzhong asked Jinshou to bring the medicine, and he took it himself, lowering his head and not daring to look up: "The Queen fainted from shock and joy, and she is still lying there."

Seeing Hongli coming to bring the medicine, he hurriedly said, "The one on the left is for the emperor, and the one on the right is for the imperial concubine."

Hongli's hand paused slightly and picked up Yanwan's medicine.

I had already smelled a strong medicinal smell just now, and when I picked it up, the strong smell made my eyes hurt even more.

But Yan Wan had already taken it and drank it neatly.

Hongli was a little stunned.

Yan Wan frowned and said, "Your Majesty, please forgive me for leaving first..."

Jinzhong whispered, "Miss Chunchan asked me to bring some candied fruit to the Imperial Concubine. It's in the box in the middle."

Yanwan hurriedly leaned on Hongli's shoulder, reached out to take the candied fruit, and ate one impatiently.

Hongli saw vitality in her little action.

He wanted to laugh, and indeed he couldn't help laughing out loud.

Yan Wan blushed: "Your Majesty."

Hongli held her hand and said, "You look the most reassuring to me when you look like this."

Yan Wan's eyes turned red again: "Your Majesty, I didn't take the medicine because I was afraid of hurting the child. I didn't expect it to be so serious."

She looked guilty.

Hongli sighed, "It's my fault. I shouldn't have thought that you always did things properly and didn't allow you to make mistakes or relax. After all, you are still a young woman. It's rare in the world to be able to do what you have now. It's because I was too harsh on you that you are suffering even though you are pregnant."

Yan Wan felt more and more guilty: "I will never dare to do this again. If I am scolded by the emperor again in the future, I will shamelessly beg for forgiveness... It's my fault. I rely too much on the emperor and don't trust him enough. I always think that the emperor will abandon me because I am so ordinary."

Hongli couldn't bear to hear her say such self-deprecating words, so he praised her several times.

Jinzhong reminded quietly, "Your Majesty, your medicine is getting cold."

Hongli: “…”

Although his medicine looked like watery soup, it was extremely bitter. However, the smell was not strong. Only those who drank it would know the taste. If he showed an expression that showed it was bitter, the palace maids and eunuchs would probably think he was being squeamish.

He didn't want to show his weakness in front of Yan Wan, so he could only swallow the medicine in one gulp with an expressionless face. He wanted to eat some candied fruit, but Jinzhong didn't even bother to show her any help and quickly took the tray and left.

At that moment, he was truly miserable.

Yan Wan said anxiously, "Is the Emperor still unhappy? I will never let anything happen to me again! I have heard from Chunchan and Lancui about how you treated me, and I will really change!"

She swore and knelt on the bed, looking at him obediently and weakly.

Even if Hongli had a heart of steel, he would be softened by her, not to mention that he already felt guilty towards Yanwan.

He held Yan Wan's hand and forced a smile: "I was just frightened by you. Don't do this again in the future."

Yan Wan nodded quickly: "Yeah!"

Hongli was amused by her well-behaved appearance and laughed out loud. He touched her soft long hair with pity and said softly, "You should have a good rest. I will return to the Yangxin Palace now. I have a cold. If it is passed on to you, I am afraid you will feel uncomfortable again."

Yan Wan was reluctant to leave, but did not dare to persuade him to stay: "I will obey the emperor."

Hongli felt soft in his heart and didn't want to leave, but he had experienced a lot of ups and downs, and it was the time to cherish Yan Wan, so he couldn't help but think more, and said in a gentle voice: "As long as Zhang Yun says I can come, I will come right away."

Yan Wan grabbed his sleeve and said, "Then, can I write a letter to you?"

As if she was afraid that he would despise her, she added, "I will definitely not talk nonsense!"

Hongli said with a smile: "Of course, you can write as long as you want, but don't hurt your spirit."

Yanwan instantly smiled like a flower, and that bright and relaxed smile made Hongli feel relaxed and happy.

After a lot of trouble, Hongli pressed Yanwan on the bed and strode away.

But as soon as he arrived outside the Yongshou Palace, his tall and mighty body immediately became weak. He barely supported himself on Jinzhong's hand to get on the sedan chair, and then leaned against it and lay motionless.

Jinzhong said solemnly, "Your Majesty, please get up!"

He followed with small steps all the way to the Yangxin Palace, and then quietly used great strength to support Hongli, making it completely impossible to tell that Hongli was at the end of his strength.

By the time Hongli entered the inner room and lay down, his body was already soaked in cold sweat.

Jinzhong was anxious: "I will go to find Zhang Yuanzheng quietly now!"

Hongli shook his head: "Wait an hour before going. I am just too emotional. I just need to rest for a while. Don't alarm the Imperial Concubine."

Jinzhong was anxious. "No matter how much you care for the Imperial Concubine, you still have to take your own health into consideration!"

Hongli's eyes were cold and stern: "There is no rush to invite the imperial physician. Let me ask you, what did the guard just report to you about the Yikun Palace?"
