Chapter 55 The War God Emperor and His Beloved Concubine 11
Chapter 55 The War God Emperor and His Beloved Concubine 11
For three days in a row, the emperor did not wake up, and Chu Yue knelt for three days and three nights, her weak body unable to hold on any longer.
She looked up at the sky, a mocking smile playing on her lips. It seemed she was indeed useless.
As darkness fell, Chu Yue could no longer hold on and collapsed.
The moment she closed her eyes, she seemed to hear someone calling that His Majesty was awake.
Xiao Tao came out to tell her, but she didn't expect that the person had already fainted.
"Help! The beauty has fainted!"
The emperor had just woken up when he heard the news, and his healed wounds immediately began to sting.
"What exactly happened!" After being unconscious for several days, the emperor's voice was weak and feeble.
"Your Majesty, the beautiful lady saw that you hadn't woken up, so she knelt outside and begged for you. She knelt for... three days and three nights." Xiao Anzi was afraid of upsetting the emperor and didn't dare to say it, but now that the beauty had fainted, he would know even if he didn't say it.
The emperor's mind went blank. What did Xiao Anzi just mean?
That foolish woman knelt outside for three days and three nights for him!
At this moment, Xiao Tao helped Chu Yue in, and Xiao Anzi quickly went to help.
"Place it next to me." The emperor's voice was filled with deep heartache.
The wounds on Chu Yue's face had scabbed over, but the tiny wounds still stung the emperor's heart.
"Give Consort Chu a proper treatment; I do not wish for Consort Chu to be unwell."
The emperor gave the order, and the military doctor dared not delay. He took her pulse and replied, "Your Majesty, Consort Chu is very weak and will need to be well cared for from now on."
"I order you to heal Consort Chu."
"Yes, yes, Your Majesty..."
Xiao Tao choked back tears as she quickly wiped Chu Yue's face, while the emperor, despite his own injuries, personally stayed by her side.
Two days later, Chu Yue woke up, but she was very weak and didn't have the strength to speak.
The emperor is almost fully recovered, and the Spirit Grass given by the system has the effect of strengthening his body.
"My beauty, you're awake? Are you feeling better?" Xiao Tao had been crying for as long as Chu Yue had been unconscious, her eyes swollen like peaches.
"His Majesty……"
Chu Yue was too weak to speak, but Xiao Tao knew what she meant: "Don't worry, my beauty, His Majesty is alright. He has been watching over you these past two days and only went out just now because of something."
"That's good..." Chu Yue smiled weakly, which made Xiao Tao want to cry again.
The beauty loves His Majesty so much, she is so touched, sob sob.
Chu Yue was too weak to comfort her, so she could only lie there and smile at her.
Xiao Tao couldn't bear it and said with heartache, "The beauty is too foolish..."
"For His Majesty, it is worth it..."
The emperor had just stepped outside when he heard this, leaving him completely bewildered. The shock he felt from Consort Chu was immense.
It takes immense courage to risk one's life for someone like that.
He lifted the curtain and went inside. The woman on the bed was already awake and looking this way.
"His Majesty……"
The emperor walked steadily toward her, stepped forward, and took her slender hand, placing it on his chest.
Xiao Tao quietly withdrew.
"Are you alright?" Chu Yue asked, her voice choked with tears.
Looking at her haggard face, the emperor felt a suffocating pain in his heart, making it hard to breathe.
Chu Meiren traveled thousands of miles without fear of hardship to come here, bringing seeds from her hometown and finding food on the mountain. She took good care of him every day.
Now she's even willing to risk her life for him, because once she enters the palace, she's his woman, and he's her everything.
"I am alright now. It is all thanks to Yue'er for finding medicine for me without regard for her own safety. I... do not know how to repay her."
When the emperor's emotions arise, they are intense and leave no one with a place to hide.
"I...like it, I like it very much."
Chu Yue stared blankly at him: "Your Majesty..."
"That night you asked me something, and I said I liked it very much."
And what about my concubines? Do you like them?
So the emperor was answering her question.
Chu Yue stood there, stunned, and forgot to respond.
The emperor affectionately stroked her pale cheek: "Consort Chu, are you happy?"
Chu Yue came to her senses and choked out, "Your Majesty... I thought you didn't like me..."
"Consort Chu is beautiful and charming, and she loves me so much, how could I not like her?"
The two grew closer, and the emperor, unlike before, was now teasing her.
Chu Yue was too weak to speak and lay there with her beautiful eyes gently closed.
The emperor felt sorry for her and stopped teasing her, staying by her side every step of the way.
This resounding victory will allow them to enjoy some peace and quiet for a while, giving Xie Heng plenty of time to spend with her.
Half a month later
Chu Yue's body has just recovered, but she still needs to drink the tonics prepared by the military doctor.
Xiao Tao brought over the medicine again, and Chu Yue's face fell when she smelled it.
Despite resisting the urge to drink it, Xiao Tao forcefully placed the medicine in front of her, and Chu Yue drank it while holding back her tears.
After taking the medicine, his face turned several shades paler.
"My lady, please don't blame me. If you don't drink, His Majesty will also be angry."
Xiao Tao ran away as soon as she finished speaking, afraid of seeing the beauty cry.
Chu Yue shed tears of grievance. She said she liked him, and Linglingyi even said that her favorability rating had reached 80, yet she was made to drink these bitter medicines every day. Her health had improved, so why did she still have to drink them?
"Waaah..." Chu Yue felt a bitter taste in her mouth, and even eating fruit to relieve the bitterness didn't help. She lay on the bed, sobbing in grievance.
When the emperor returned, he heard her crying. His heart tightened, and he quickly went in to see her.
Upon reaching behind the screen, I saw a frail figure sobbing uncontrollably, crying heartbrokenly.
"Why are you crying so sadly?" The emperor stepped forward and helped her up.
Chu Yue's eyes were red from crying, and the culprit was still asking why she was crying so sadly.
She turned her head away, not wanting to talk to him.
"Don't want to take your medicine?" A faint bitter smell still lingered in the tent.
Chu Yue choked back tears and said, "This concubine dares not..."
The emperor was helpless. She was in poor health, had traveled a long way to get here, and was in bad condition. She had also injured herself for him a few days ago.
If I don't take medicine, how can I take good care of myself?
But this delicate girl couldn't stand the bitterness of the medicine, and she would start to make a fuss every time she drank it. Even if he got angry, he couldn't control her.
Today was even more shocking; she actually cried.
The emperor grabbed her chin and looked her in the eye: "Don't be angry. I feel guilty that you are injured. You need to take the medicine to recover."
"I... can feel a little more at ease now."
"Your Majesty... I'm already better... really." I can walk and run, so there's no need for medicine.
The emperor just stared intently at her. Who was it that couldn't sleep at night?
She often felt anxious and couldn't sleep for most of the night. Did she think he didn't know?
"There's no room for negotiation on this until you've fully recovered."
The emperor made the final decision, and Chu Yue was completely dumbfounded. How much longer would she have to suffer this bitter medicine?
She silently shed tears, no longer complaining, her head bowed low, no longer looking at him.
The emperor was both heartbroken and angry, and didn't know what to do with her!
He sighed softly, pulled her into his arms, and felt a pang of pity for her frail appearance.
"Take good care of yourself. When I have some free time, I'll take you out to play."
Chu Yue didn't want to pay attention to him. What was so fun about being in the mountains?
The emperor was amused and thought, "This little brat has quite a temper," but he didn't let go and kept holding her.
After drinking the medicine, Chu Yue gradually became sleepy, and since the emperor was holding her, she simply fell asleep.
The person in his arms remained motionless for a long time. The emperor looked down and saw that the person had fallen asleep.
"What a delicate person..." she scolded softly, but still gently put the person down, tucked the blanket in, and then went out to deal with the matter.
