hapter 59: Yun Mother and Son

After everyone discussed and separately went out to carry on their tasks, Yun Tailing was responsible for collecting some medicinal herb samples from the lectures from the Imperial Hospital. The head was Yun Yangrong, Yun Tailing’s mother. She was a very righteous and old-fashioned woman. As part of the Yun clan, one naturally needed to possess medical skills. Even if you are a mere sweeping attendant, you must also know some herbal medicinal tricks and tips, let alone the Yun clan’s Eldest Young Master. But, as a man, his learning and studies had been limited. Most of Yun Tailing’s medical skills were learned under the blessings and indulgences provided by Qianhe Liyou. He had been Qianhe Liyou’s companion since childhood and naturally received some privileges. He also liked learning medical skills and would always run to the Imperial Hospital. Everyone knew that he accompanied the Empress’ daughter and as to what he asked and wanted to learn, everyone would naturally not be stingy. Although Yun Yangrong was a bit old-fashioned, she did not stop them. After all, her son was the companion to an Imperial daughter, so it was always good to learn more. Everyone knew that as a companion to an Imperial daughter, most men would end up being admitted to the palace in the future. Of course, they all understood how complicated life in the Imperial harem was.

“This son greets mother.” As soon as Yun Tailing entered the hospital, he saw his mother Yun Yangrong reading a book. She raised her head and saw that her son was standing next to her. She immediately stood up and saluted, “This small official greets Yun guiren.”

The courtesy between a monarch and his ministers could not be discarded, even for mothers and their children. Since Yun Tailing had been formally conferred the title of guiren, Yun Yanrong had to treat the other with extreme courtesy every time they met.”

“Mother, no need to be overly courteous. This child was entrusted with an important matter by Long da-ren. I hope you can prepare more medicinal herbs and pills for the future management of the Medical Academy to use during lessons. This is the list made by Long da-ren, please go through it.” Regarding managing the Medical Academy, he had already had two dealings with his mother, and his mother’s attitude had always been very flat and dull. To be so indifferent in whether she approved of or opposed to his undertaking this time, this had surprised him. He had always thought that his mother would oppose the path he had chosen, but his mother remained silent and cooperative.

“This small official will prepare everything. Long da-ren can send someone over to take them away in three days.” Yun Yangrong had roughly looked over the list. Most were common medicinal herbs and pills, all which could be prepared within three days.

“Thank you mother da-ren. This child will inform Long da-ren.” Regarding his mother’s attitude toward him, Yun Tailing did not refute her. He knew that what he said would be useless and would not affect his mother’s attitude at all. Moreover, his status was indeed on display here. This is the case where courtesy could not be dismissed. But he still treated Yun Yangrong as his mother and observed proper etiquette. But both of them were such rigid people and they did not know what to say after official affairs were over, so they could only stand in silence.

Yun Tailing rarely came into contact with his mother. At this time, he had free time and his mother was also free. He wanted to accompany his mother and show off his filial piety, but he did not know what to say. The intelligence from the past did not work in this situation. Even when he faced the Empress, he did not feel so embarrassed. This  made him a little annoyed, but this awkwardness was soon broken and a servant rushed in….

“Yun da-ren, quickly come look at my master, my master fell into the water…..”

As soon as Yun Yanrong saw this, he knew who the master of the other party was and immediately asked, “Ling Dang, how is your master doing now?”

“He was rescued, but the situation is not good. This servant was too anxious to invite da-ren to come help and did not have the chance to take a closer look. It is better to invite the da-ren to quickly come with this servant to take a look, please…”His master had originally appreciated the scenery by the lake, but without knowing what happened, he had fallen into the lake. He had been deeply shocked and immediately asked the nearby guards to rescue his master, running to the Imperial Hospital. Everytime something happened to his master, he invited the Imperial Physician and his words were always similarly asking for them in a hurry.

“Do not get anxious, let us depart…” The reason why Yun Yangrong personally knew Ling Dang was because Ling Dang’s master was always in need of an Imperial Physician. And Ling Dang’s master was Murong Xuanhe, otherwise known as An guifei. This hard-working child had a bitter life, one did not know how he had offended the Empress. Everytime he served the Empress, he would get wounds from head to toe. Whenever she saw it, she would become shocked and could not help thinking of her own son. She worried that Ling’er would be treated similarly, but it was comforting that there were no such rumors about Ling’er….

Ling’er was her own son, how could she not care? But now that the two of them had different statuses, some words she just could not say. After all, Ling’er was already the concubine of the Empress and as a courtier, she had no right to care about Imperial affairs. She could only hope that Ling’er would stay safe.

Yun Yangrong asked the servant who was waiting on standby with his medicine box and followed after Ling Dang. She glanced at Yun Tailing before leaving and Yun Tailing hesitatingly said, “I will go and take a look with you.” Naturally, there would be ties when Imperial harem members crossed paths and his relationship with An guifei was also good. An guifei was always injured and he knew a bit of medical skills. Some wounds were not appropriate for Imperial Physicians to treat, so he took it upon himself to treat An guifei instead. Since he personally treated him, Yun Tailing naturally knew how much hardship this poor child had suffered and he had been very worried about his incidence of falling into the water.

Yun Yangrong nodded and the group left in a hurry.

When Yun Yangrong had rushed over to the lake’s shore, Murong Xuanhe had already regained consciousness, but his face was tinged slightly purple, his lips blue and purple, his overall complexion looking slightly swollen. He made for a very miserable sight. Yun Yangrong quickly pushed everyone away and took his pulse.

“An guifei’s condition is not serious, but he has been frightened by the cold. Ling Dang, please quickly prepare hot water for An guifei to bathe in and change his wet clothes. Meng Qing, you brew a calming and cold expelling, nourishing medicine and then send it to Anxuan Palace immediately.

“Understood!” The crowd dispersed immediately and the guards lifted An guifei onto a soft stretcher and quickly sent him back to Anxuan Palace.

After intaking the medicine, his complexion changed and looked better. While half-asleep and half-awake, he dazedy said, “Yun da-ren, I have troubled you again.” He was always so careless and this time around, he had fallen in the lake and alarmed multiple people.

“This little official dares not. Requesting that An niangniang take a good rest. Your condition is not serious and will recover after half a day’s rest.” Ai, this niangniang was nothing more than a child and was also extremely kind. No matter how he was treated, he would always show a look of embarrassment and say that he had troubled the other whenever she treated him. Everytie she treated him, she could not help but feel more pity. If the Empress could treat this child better, how nice would that be ah….

‘Thank you.” Murong Xuanhe showed a slightly bashful smile. In addition to his somewhat feeble expression, it made people who looked upon the scene feel that it was quite heartwarming.

And what Qianhe Liyou saw after coming in was Murong Xuanhe’s heartwarming and endearing smile…

“You fell into the water, is all well?” Qianhe Liyou had stopped the attendant from announcing her arrival and when she had made a sound, she was already standing in front of Murong Xuanhe’s bed.

Everyone was surprised that the Empress had appeared and wanted to salute her, but was stopped in their places by Qianhe Liyou, “Forgo the greetings. Imperial Physician Yu, how is An guifei?”
“Replying to the Empress, An guifei was just a little frightened and his condition is not serious, he can recover after half a day’s rest.”
