The old lady deftly changed into the Empress Dowager's palace robes!

"Hmm, not bad, you've got a bit of the Empress Dowager vibe!" This was the first time Song Yan'er had ever seen the old lady dressed so formally!

It has to be said that clothes make the man. The moment the old lady put on this dress, she immediately became aloof and dignified!

The old lady rolled her eyes speechlessly: "Stop joking around and hurry up!"

Song Yan'er also changed into a night-walker outfit, covering even her hair, leaving only her eyes showing!

"Alright, are you ready? Time to go!"

Old lady: "Okay, let's go. But be careful, all the things on my head are very valuable. Losing even one of them would be a huge loss!"

Song Yan'er...

I will protect your head!

Song Yan'er carried the old lady on her back and quickly walked towards the palace!

"Watch out, I'm going to climb over the wall, protect your head!"

old lady……

What kind of talk is this? Does it mean other places don't need protection?

With a few leaps, Song Yan'er scaled the palace wall and walked along the wall in the direction the old lady was pointing!

Meanwhile, the old lady was thinking about which imperial physician would be easier to fool, while pointing out the way to Song Yan'er!

"Over here, Physician Tang. He's the most easily influenced and the most timid! He's so easy to fool!"

Song Yan'er quickly arrived outside the room of Doctor Tang, which the old lady had mentioned!

Perhaps because the Emperor has some health problems, several famous imperial physicians are staying in the palace today!

Song Yan'er put the old lady down outside Physician Tang's door and tidied her clothes and headdress:

"No rush, let me add some ingredients first!"

Old lady: "You still have this kind of medicine?"

Song Yan'er replied smugly, "Of course, otherwise how could I dominate the martial arts world!"

old lady……

I just gave you a casual compliment, do you think you can get away with anything?!

Song Yan'er didn't have a chance to glare at the old lady. She took out a tube of medicine powder and blew some into it!

Song Yan'er glanced at the old lady: "This powder only makes him more prone to hallucinations, it's not the kind of weird medicine you're thinking of! Alright, please begin your performance!"

The old lady straightened her clothes, which weren't messy, then pushed open the door and went inside. Song Yan'er followed her in and hid in a corner, making sure that Doctor Tang wouldn't notice that someone was hiding there!

"Tang Jianguo, Tang Jianguo, Tang Jianguo!"

The old lady started repeatedly calling out Doctor Tang's name, trying to wake him up!

In his sleep, Tang Taiyi felt someone calling him. He groggily opened his eyes and suddenly found a tall figure standing outside the bed curtains. Even though there was a bed curtain between them, Tang Jianguo could feel that tall figure staring at him!

Seeing that Imperial Physician Tang had slowly woken up, Song Yan'er, in order to enhance the effect, slowly moved to the window, raised her hand and slowly opened the window!

“Squeak!”

When Physician Tang saw that the window had opened by itself, his fear was amplified, and the biting cold wind made Tang Jianguo shiver involuntarily!

"Um, who are you? I... I haven't done anything wrong! Please don't... don't arrest the wrong person! I'm a good person, I'm a doctor, I'm here to save lives!"

old lady……

He hasn't even made a move yet! And he's already this scared?

"Tang Jianguo, do you still remember me?"

Tang Jianguo slowly opened the bed curtains, and then saw the person in front of him—no, the ghost in front of him—and was so frightened that he rolled off the bed with a thud!

"Empress Dowager, I have done nothing wrong to you. Why have you come to see me? What do you want?"

The old woman continued in a low voice, "I just want to know how my eldest son is doing lately. He has too much yang energy, and I can't get close to him, so I came to ask you!"

Tang Jianguo: The Emperor only said not to tell others, but he didn't say not to tell ghosts, right? So I'm not considered a traitor!

Tang Jianguo knelt before the old lady: "Your Majesty, His Majesty has been complaining of stomach pain lately. After examination by several of us imperial physicians, we have determined that it is edema!"

The old woman suddenly seemed to have all her strength drained away: "Swelling? Are you sure?"

Tang Jianguo was unaware that even ghosts experience human joy and sorrow! So, seeing the Empress Dowager's expression change, Tang Jianguo gradually grew bolder and was even able to look directly at the Empress Dowager!

"That's what we imperial physicians all think!"

That's almost certain!

Having found out what she wanted to know, Song Yan'er struck Tang Jianguo on the back of the neck, knocking him unconscious!

Song Yan'er kindly carried Doctor Tang to the bed, otherwise, in this weather, he would have suffered enough if he had to lie on the ground all night!

"Let's go, we still need to confirm with the Emperor!"

The old lady mechanically shook her head: "There's no need to go!"

The swelling here is like cancer in a past life. However, in the past life, there was a possibility of treatment and one could live a long time. But here, there is no way to treat it, and one can only slowly wait to die!

No wonder the old lady's expression changed!

"Yan'er, do you think the baby in his belly is malignant or benign?"

The old lady still harbored a sliver of hope: what if it was benign?

Song Yan'er couldn't bear to upset the old lady, because if the imperial physician had already diagnosed it, there was a more than 90% chance it was malignant!

When the old lady saw that Song Yan'er was not speaking, she knew in her heart that the possibility of her being benign was almost nonexistent!

The old woman said, "If only it were in my past life, there would still be a glimmer of hope for treatment. But here, there's really no way! He's not even fifty years old! How could such a young life have turned out like this?"

With her back to the old lady, Song Yan'er was thinking about how to comfort her, or whether she should tell her directly that she might bring her a glimmer of hope.

"How about we go and see the Emperor again? Maybe I have a solution! What do you say?"

Song Yan'er couldn't bear to see the old lady like this, because in Song Yan'er's heart, the old lady was her own grandmother, and seeing the despair in her eyes was too painful! So it was better to give her a little hope!

"Really? That makes sense. We can't just give up like this. After all, we come from a country that's so much more advanced than this. We're bound to come up with something! Yes, let's go find the Emperor! Let's go!"

Seeing that the old lady finally showed a smile, Song Yan'er felt a little better!

The two quickly arrived at the Emperor's palace. The Emperor's guards were surprised to see the two suddenly appear. Song Yan'er could actually come and go freely in the palace without being detected! They must have a match someday!

However, knowing their identities, the guards did not stop them and let them in directly!

At this moment, the emperor was still in his palace reading memorials and had not gone to sleep, so the two of them made eye contact as soon as they entered!
