Chapter 72a: Treating Empress Wang

Luo Qing Luan was already well aware of the condition of Empress Wang’s health. Checking her pulse again was merely for appearances sake.

Very quickly, Luo Qing Luan withdrew her hand and said, “Your Highness’ condition is not optimistic.” Her tone of voice wasn’t very serious at all, but when combined with this solemn and quiet atmosphere, Empress Wang instinctively became apprehensive. Once she heard these words, she immediately panicked.

“Great Master, you have to help me.” She even dropped the formal means of address when referring to herself. Empress Wang anxiously and eagerly continued. “As long as you can cure me, no matter what requests the great master makes, I will absolutely not refuse anything that I can accomplish. Great Master, I beg of you......”

“Your Highness, please don’t be too excited. It’s not good for your health.” Luo Qing Luan’s manner was as calm as before. Even the tone of her voice did not undulate. “Even though your problem is a bit thorny, it’s also not unsolvable.”

Just as Empress Wang was about to be delighted and wanted to ask something, Luo Qing Luan already continued, “My disciple has already spoke to me and I’ve also checked your health. Your condition really is more or less the same as what she said. If you’d like to cure it thoroughly and conceive smoothly, then Your Highness will need to do a few things.”

“Please speak, Great Master.” Empress Wang was pleasantly surprised and quickly asked.

“Firstly, take care of your health which means your mind needs to be undisturbed and your soul calm. This is the foundation. If you take care of your body while you worry about everything, that will tax your mind and body. Your heart will be vexed and fretful, which will undoubtedly influence your health. Will Your Highness be able to do this?” Luo Qing Luan said expressionlessly.

Even though it’s easy to say and sounded like she was urging Empress Wang to worry less, the fact was that this was actually Luo Qing Luan’s main focus.

She didn’t want Empress Wang to focus attention on her, wanting her to become the Crown Prince Consort. Even more so, she didn’t wish Empress Wang to directly talk with the Emperor. If the imperial edict was issued, everything would be too late. Therefore she had to make Empress Wang not care about this matter and diverted her attention. This was actually her objective in treating Empress Wang’s illness.

Sure enough, Empress Wang wasn’t aware of this in the least and immediately answered, “Fine. No problem. After I return, I’ll ask His Majesty to temporarily entrust all matters regarding the inner palace to Imperial Consort Song. If not, someone else will be fine, too. Please tell me Great Master, what’s next?”

Very satisfied, Luo Qing Luan was expressionless as before. “Secondly are the specifics on how your treatment should proceed. I’m afraid that your health has already been bad for many years. The imperial physician has already told you this many years ago, right?”

Recalling how she’d been examined by countless numbers of imperial physicians in the past, yet each of them gave about the same excuse. Empress Wang’s complexion darkened a bit and replied. “Yes, Great Master, His Majesty have asked many imperial physicians to examine me. Without exception, every one of them said that my body is chilly and fears the cold. It won’t be easy to become pregnant. Even if I conceive, it would be easy to......”

“Yes, it truly is not easy for a chilly body which fears the cold to conceive, but if Your Highness is willing to suffer a little bit, I’ll still have a way.”

Once she heard this, Empress Wang was thrilled. “Please tell me, Great Master, what way would that be?”

Luo Qing Luan smiled faintly and answered. “Not difficult at all. It only necessitates my treatment for a period of time, then you’ll be all better after you take a nap.”

“That simple?” Empress Wang even thought that she needed to pay some price, she didn’t expect......it merely requires taking a nap?

“That’s right, you’ll be better after taking a nap.” Luo Qing Luan explained. “After all, Your Highness’ body is noble. A mishap is not allowed, but my techniques also can not be made known to outsiders, can not be seen by others. Even Your Highness can not know of them. If Your Highness trusts me and allow yourself to be safely placed in my hands no matter what I do to you......”

She had not had a chance to finish speaking when Empress Wang already stood up and sincerely paid respect, “Please be assured Great Master, as long as you can cure my body, which allows me to conceive, so what if I hand over even my life to Great Master? Great Master, just go ahead and act, I will go to inform those outside not to enter no matter what happens during the time of the treatment.”

“Mm, good.” Luo Qing Luan nodded. She didn’t expect that Empress Wang would be persuaded so smoothly. She was still somewhat surprised.

It seemed that, for the sake of having a child, Empress Wang would truly throw caution to the winds. She didn’t even care for her own safety. This Great Master merely met Empress Wang for the first time, yet she already trusted her so much. Even though it’s possible to imagine how eager Empress Wang was to have a child, her actions was also able to display her real benevolence and magnanimity, devoid of any machinations.

If one of those highly suspicious people were in her place, they absolutely wouldn’t have been convinced.

Originally, Luo Qing Luan also merely supported Empress Wang. Since things turned out this way, she wanted even more to properly cure Empress Wang.

After a short moment, Empress Wang came back in and said that she already instructed her subordinates. As long as she didn’t take the initiative to go outside, even if any sounds came from the room, no one was allowed to come in. The violator would be committing a capital offense.

“Mn, then will Your Highness please recline on the couch over there. Let’s prepare to start.” Luo Qing Luan stated.

Starting to get nervous, Empress Wang walked to the side of the concubine couch and sat down. After that, she took off her shoes and sat up, then slowly lay down. She remembered that the Great Master said that nobody was allowed to see her treatment techniques, not even an empress. It would seem it’s better to fall asleep.

She quickly closed her eyes, but sleep wasn’t something that could be done in a short period of time, especially now......this difficult to come by trace of hope caused Empress Wang to be too excited. The more she wanted to sleep, the more she could not sleep, instead. Her eyes closed, then opened again. They opened then promptly closed again. She didn’t even dare to move.

Right at this time, she just heard a slight rustling noise coming towards her, as if someone was approaching.

Empress Wang was about to turn her head and look when she recalled something and kept her eyes closed without moving. In but a moment, she felt something prick her body lightly, then she thoroughly fell asleep.
