1107: The Return of an Old Friend (15)

The Return of an Old Friend (15)

Shen Miao was observant and could tell that Emperor Yong Le had a lot of feelings for Empress Xiande. Everything was going well. When Xie Jingxing returned, this peaceful life might continue for a long time.0

Empress Xiande suddenly thought of something and said, "Tomorrow, I'm going to dig up the two jars of snow brew I buried under the plum tree last year. It will probably smell very good after the jar is opened. Your Majesty, go with me. We'll bury some jars this year too. Your Highness and Miss Luo, come with us. After we dig it out, in the evening, we'll go to the royal garden to admire the lotus flowers and try the snow brew."

Luo Tan agreed happily. Shen Miao nodded, but Emperor Yong Le seemed to be a little helpless. Empress Xiande was only interested in making tea and wine. When she was happy, she was like a child. However, in the end, he still nodded. Seeing this, Empress Xiande was very satisfied and continued to chat with Shen Miao as she ate.

The next day happened to be a sunny day, so Shen Miao and Luo Tan went out early. Shen Miao was pregnant and could not dig with Empress Xiande. Luo Tan was reckless and was afraid that she would hit the jar and break it, so Empress Xiande and Nanny Tao were the ones digging.

Emperor Yong Le said, "Get up. It's not good if you hurt your hand."

"All these years, I've always done it together with Nanny Tao." Some sweat broke out on Empress Xiande's forehead, but she still smiled and said, "The trick to make the brew mellow and fragrant is to bury it and dig it out all by yourself. Next time, I'll let you try, and you'll know what I mean." As she spoke, she and Nanny Tao dug out another jar.

Emperor Yong Le suddenly frowned. He paused and quietly pressed his chest.

Empress Xiande picked up one of the jars. The jar was small and cute, and it was not difficult to hold it. She did not mind the soil dirtying her clothes and raised it in front of Emperor Yong Le as if she was presenting a treasure. She pulled out the stopper of the wine jar and brought it to Emperor Yong Le's nose, asking, "Your Majesty, come and smell it. Is it very fragrant?"

"It smells good," Emperor Yong Le said with a frown.

Empress Xiande looked at him. "Your Majesty, does it not smell good? Otherwise, why do you look like this? Could it be that it's gone bad?" She sniffed the wine suspiciously.

Emperor Yong Le smiled and was about to speak when he suddenly felt his vision go dark. He staggered and fell to the ground!

"Your Majesty!" Empress Xiande was shocked. The small jar of snow wine in her hand fell to the ground and shattered.

"Quick, call the imperial physician!" Shen Miao quickly instructed, but she suddenly had an ominous feeling.

…

Outside the room, the head of the Gao family finally arrived.

This was Gao Yang's grandfather, Gao Zhan.

The Gao family had been practicing medicine for generations and was quite famous in Long Ye. Among the juniors of the Gao family, Gao Yang was the one with the most outstanding medical skills, but he aspired to be an official. As a punishment, the head of the Gao family simply expelled him from the Gao family. Back then, Empress Dowager Xiao valued Gao Yang's talent. Later, she arranged for him to go to Ming Qi and became good friends with Xie Jingxing to help him.

If not for Gao Zhan's brilliant medical skills, Emperor Yong Le would not have lived for so many years. Back then, he suspected that Emperor Yong Le wouldn't live past the age of 35. However, just when everyone thought that he was wrong, Emperor Yong Le fell seriously ill.

Gao Zhan shook his head at Empress Xiande.

Empress Xiande's tears immediately fell.
