Ye Qingcheng shook her head: "Your Majesty, rest assured, I will not let anything happen to the Empress Dowager."

These past few days, this young woman has been reading many books and came across a herb that seems to be able to cure tumors.

"Herbal medicine? What herbal medicine? I'll have someone find it for me right now."

"Cold-cold Snow Grass".

"Cold-cold Snow Grass?"

"What? Cold-Blooded Snow Grass?" Physician Fang exclaimed in surprise upon hearing this.

Ye Qingcheng nodded: "That's right, could Physician Fang possibly have found this herb?"

"This...this...Dr. Ye, I have only read about the Cold Snow Grass in medical books and have never actually seen it."

Moreover, according to records, this Cold-Blooded Snow Grass grows in the extremely cold northern regions.

It is said to be the king of all herbs, extremely rare, and even if it exists, only one plant grows every hundred years.

"Yes! That's true."

Upon hearing this, the Emperor frowned slightly and pondered for a moment, "Divine Physician Ye, Imperial Physician Fang, are you sure this herb truly exists in the world?"

"This... Your Majesty, I don't know if it exists, but according to records, such herbs do exist."

"Very well, if that's the case, I will immediately send someone to search in the Northern Regions."

"Your Majesty, this...this herb does exist, but it is difficult to find. Moreover, it is said that the extremely cold place is covered with frost all year round, and the temperature is so low that it is impossible for people to get close. In addition, it grows on the top of a mountain thousands of feet high. It is as difficult as climbing to heaven to pick it."

"Hmph, no matter how difficult it is, I will find it." After saying that, the Emperor looked at Ye Qingcheng, "Divine Physician Ye, if you can draw the Cold Snow Grass, I will send people to find it right away."

"Your Majesty, I shall go and find this Frosty Snow Grass!"

"What? You're going?"

"Yes, Your Majesty..."

"No...it's impossible..."

Ye Qingcheng had only spoken halfway when the Empress Dowager's hoarse voice came to stop her.

The Emperor, Ye Qingcheng, and everyone present all turned to look at the Empress Dowager.

"Mother, you're awake?" The Emperor walked over quickly and happily.

Ye Qingcheng also walked to the bedside: "Empress Dowager."

The Empress Dowager raised her hand and grabbed Ye Qingcheng's hand: "Girl...you...you can't go."

"Empress Dowager...I..."

"Girl, I've lived long enough to live this long."

"No... Empress Dowager, I promised I would make sure nothing would happen to you."

"No... I absolutely refuse to let you go."

"Empress Dowager..."

"Your Majesty, you may all leave now! I have something to say to Physician Ye."

"This...Empress Dowager..." The Emperor hesitated for a moment, then frowned slightly and looked at Ye Qingcheng with a puzzled expression.

Ye Qingcheng felt the Emperor's scrutinizing gaze and sighed inwardly, but in order not to expose herself.

She nodded to the Emperor and said, "Your Majesty, why don't you all go out first? I'd like to have a word with the Empress Dowager."

The Emperor did not move after hearing this, but stared sharply at Ye Qingcheng.

However, after a moment, he still spoke: "Alright, inform me immediately if anything happens."

Having said that, he led his men away from the palace.

After everyone left.

The Empress Dowager held Ye Qingcheng's hand: "Girl, the Cold Snow Grass grows in the extremely cold land of the Northern Region."

When I was young, I went to the Northern Region with the late Emperor. As Physician Fang said, that place is covered with frost all year round.

"It's extremely dangerous. I can't let you take such a risk. I've lived long enough."

"Your Majesty, I am grateful for your love, but it is precisely because of this that I cannot bear to see you suffer from this headache every day."

"Oh! Girl, I appreciate your kindness, but I can't let you take such a risk! If anything happens to you, then I..."

Ye Qingcheng smiled slightly and comforted her, "Your Majesty, you don't need to worry. I guarantee that nothing will happen, and I am confident that I can find the Cold Snow Grass."

"No, no."

"Your Majesty... I promise you, I will return safely. Please let me go!"

"Your Majesty..."

"Empress Dowager..."

"You... sigh! Enough, enough, you children have grown up. You won't listen to me anymore, even if I do."

"No, Your Majesty..."

"Girl, I promised your mother I would take good care of you. These past years I've been away from the capital, and no one has been protecting you."

That beast Ye Taikang has ignored you again, causing you so much suffering. Now that I'm back, and because of this illness… sigh!”

"So, Your Majesty, if you were no longer here, there would be no one in this world who would love Qing'er anymore."

"Oh, you..."

"So, Your Majesty, you agree to let me go, right?"

"Alright, alright, go! But I will have someone accompany you and protect you."

"this…"

"What? You won't?"

"All right!"

"Alright, let the Emperor and the others in!"

"yes."

After Ye Qingcheng finished answering, she opened the door and called the Emperor and the others in.

"Mother."

After the Emperor entered, he quickly walked to the Empress Dowager's bedside and called out.

The Empress Dowager looked at the Emperor and said, "Your Majesty, since Physician Ye insists on going to help me find medicine, then you should send some people to accompany her!"

"Yes, Mother."

"Okay! Have your men protect Doctor Ye."

"Mother, rest assured, your illness still requires Physician Ye, and your son will not allow her to have it."

"Okay! That's good."

"Since Your Majesty wishes to do so, in the time I am searching for medicine, to prevent your headache from becoming unbearable, I will administer acupuncture to make you sleep for a few days. What do you think?"

"Alright, you may begin the acupuncture!"

"yes."

That's all.
