Chapter 111: Being Recruited
When the medicine the queen drank was updated to the tenth version, the queen finally looked better.
Ye Jinshu also learned from the imperial physician that Ye Ruoyan had been sleeping only one or two hours a day for the past half month. Sometimes, if a patient's condition worsened in the middle of the night, Ye Ruoyan would simply stay awake and stay by the patient's side to observe their reactions and changes.
"Miss Ye is much better than us old guys." This is what the old doctor said to the queen.
Ye Jinshu was also beside him when he said this, but the imperial physician did not shy away from it.
At this moment, there is no such thing as illegitimate daughter or legitimate daughter, there is only the powerful person Ye Ruoyan.
If we lose such talents, it will be a loss for the entire country.
The imperial physician just wanted to express this idea.
The reason why the imperial physician dared to tell the truth in front of the queen was naturally because the queen was someone who could listen to the truth.
At this moment, Ye Jinshu finally understood what the Queen meant when she said, "Someone like Ye Ruoyan can only belong to the emperor."
Yes, someone like Ye Ruoyan, no matter who she marries, that person will become a huge threat to the royal family.
Only when the situation is under the control of the emperor can people feel at ease.
However, Ye Jinshu always felt strange.
Ever since she started chatting with the Queen, Ye Jinshu had a very strong strange feeling whenever she thought about what happened around Ye Ruoyan, but she couldn't figure out where this strange feeling came from, so she could only write it down first.
When the queen heard this, she subconsciously glanced at Ye Jinshu. She did not respond to the imperial physician's words, but instead praised Ye Jinshu, "In my opinion, Jinshu is the most amazing. He has stayed here for such a long time and is not afraid at all."
The imperial physician understood what the queen meant, so he stopped talking about Ye Ruoyan and agreed with the queen.
But even a fool could hear the perfunctory tone in his praise. Compared with the sincere admiration he showed when praising Ye Ruoyan, the praise for her was just a show.
Ye Jinshu didn't care about the completely different evaluations that had begun to appear on her and Ye Ruoyan, but the queen seemed to care a lot.
When the imperial physician left, Ye Jinshu accidentally met the Queen's eyes. The Queen looked at her with sadness in her eyes, as if she was already dead.
Why did the Queen look at her like that?
The queen did not expect Ye Jinshu to turn around so suddenly. The emotions in her eyes were immediately hidden. She smiled at Ye Jinshu as before and said, "Jinshu, don't take the doctor's words to heart. No matter what happens to Ye Ruoyan in the future, your aunt will protect you."
Rather than saying this the Queen was making a promise to Ye Jinshu, it would be more accurate to say that the Queen was making a vow to herself.
Ye Jinshu didn't understand.
"Aunt, why are you so nice to me?"
The queen looked at Ye Jinshu's face, and for a moment, it seemed as if she was looking through her at someone else.
"Your mother entrusted you to me. This is the only time in her life that she asked me for something."
mother.
These two words rarely appeared in Ye Jinshu's previous life. Even though she had deliberately looked for clues, she didn't find much. But she heard them often from the Queen.
She asked tentatively, "Aunt, tell me more about mother."
In the past, Ye Jinshu didn’t dare to ask. Firstly, she couldn’t accept it. Secondly, every time she mentioned her mother, the queen would have a very sad expression. Over time, she stopped asking.
But now, perhaps because the queen was half on the verge of death, she did not feel sad when she mentioned her mother again, but only missed her.
The most important thing is that the current queen is willing to speak. "Your mother is a powerful person."
That day, Ye Jinshu finally knew the relationship between his mother and the emperor and empress.
To sum up, her mother had a good relationship with the queen since childhood. She would protect the queen and help her teach those short-sighted people a lesson.
The emperor and the empress were engaged, and when the emperor came to see the empress, he would often meet Ye Jinshu's mother. After a while, the two became familiar with each other. Ye Jinshu's mother taught the emperor how to use spear, and she was considered half of the emperor's master.
Ye Jinshu's father saved the life of the former crown prince, the current emperor. His father's life was in danger twice because of protecting the crown prince.
To sum up, Ye Jinshu's parents are very important people to the emperor and empress. It is precisely because of this that no matter what trouble Ye Jinshu has caused over the years, the emperor and empress have always been reluctant to punish her severely.
"Jinshu, they all said that the emperor and I spoiled you so much in order to give an explanation to the entire Ye family, but in fact, the emperor and I just wanted to give an explanation to those two people."
As the queen spoke, she suddenly remembered something and a smile appeared on her face.
Ye Jinshu didn't know the details of the past, but listening to the Queen talking about her parents, another question made Ye Jinshu even more curious.
"Aunt, you said that night that my mother and father were a couple for life."
The queen was still feeling a little unwell at the moment, and did not notice the strangeness of Ye Jinshu's question. She thought Ye Jinshu was just yearning, so she replied, "Yeah."
But Ye Jinshu's expression darkened when she heard this answer. There was a slight tremor in her words, which shocked the queen: "Then why did father give birth to a concubine's daughter with someone else?"
The queen opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't.
Ye Jinshu didn't say anything else.
There was a rare silence between the two.
I don’t know how long it took, but Ye Jinshu sighed first and broke the silence: “Aunt, let me read the storybook to you.”
The queen looked away guiltily and hummed.
The two returned to their previous way of getting along, but Ye Jinshu's attitude had changed a little.
She no longer took the initiative to talk to the queen about her own affairs, and when the queen spoke she just responded, no longer feeling curious about the past.
The whole person looks listless.
Even so, Ye Jinshu still stayed with the queen. At least when the queen woke up in the middle of the night, the first person she saw when she opened her eyes was her.
Another half a month passed, and the epidemic outside the palace began to be brought under control.
I heard that Ye Ruoyan stayed with the patients all day long and even used her own body for experiments, and finally found a medicine that could cure the plague. All that needs to be done next is to distribute the medicine, have the patients take it for ten consecutive days, and then burn everything the patients have used.
The developed medicine was delivered to the Queen's palace as soon as possible. The effect of the medicine was obvious. The Queen fell asleep soon after drinking it.
When the queen woke up again, she felt much better.
Ye Jinshu still stayed with the queen. In the last ten days, she worked harder than before, and the queen looked at her with more and more loving eyes.
Just when Ye Jinshu thought that he would be able to go out and use Jiang Sisi's brain to figure out what this day felt like, in the last three days, she, who had not been infected with the plague, finally got infected.
