As soon as the medicine was taken, Consort Yin felt a warm current spreading from her stomach to her limbs and bones, and she quickly regained her strength.

After receiving the medicine from Ji Fengyao and hearing her words, Consort Yin burst into tears again: "Thank you, young lady, but I would never dare to give this medicine to His Majesty. If it harms His Majesty's health and is discovered, my entire Yin family will perish because of it."

"Your Majesty, rest assured, as long as Your Majesty carefully hides the medicine bottle and prevents anyone from discovering the crime, no one will be able to find out anything amiss. Even if it harms the Emperor's health, it will take more than ten years before any symptoms appear." Ji Fengyao turned and glanced at Shang Xiche, who was wandering around the palace like a walking corpse, her eyes cold: "More than ten years later, who knows what the Great Zhao will be like?"

Consort Yin was deeply moved upon hearing this.

She knew the emperor's state better than anyone, and she was also aware of some of the situations inside and outside the palace.

Let alone more than ten years, I'm afraid that if he continues like this, some people won't even tolerate him for five years!

That is why the Yin family secretly began to plan their escape route.

Consort Yin was favored in the harem not only because she was a natural beauty, but also because she was not particularly stupid.

She knew that the woman before her, who dared to break into the palace at night without being discovered, must be no ordinary person. She quickly put away the medicine, bowed solemnly to Ji Fengyao, and said, "Thank you very much, young lady. You have shown me great kindness. I don't know how I can repay you?"

Ji Fengyao waved her hand dismissively: "It was nothing, no need to worry about it."

After thinking for a moment, he added, "If Your Majesty truly wishes to help, then please, Your Majesty and the Yin family, from this day forward, remain neutral and observe whatever happens in the court and the palace, and protect yourselves wisely. Is that alright?"

"So...simple?" Consort Yin was shocked.

Although her Yin family's status in the court was not as high as that of Empress Chen's family, they had built up a foundation through their efforts, yet they were still looked down upon.

"Hmm," Ji Fengyao smiled at her with her eyes crinkling, "and I'll give Your Majesty another piece of advice."

Consort Yin: "Please speak, young lady."

"One should not have the heart to harm others, but one should not be without the heart to guard against others; those who have good intentions will be blessed." After saying this, Ji Fengyao walked up to Shang Xiche, who was like a fool, and reached out to freeze him in place.

She took out a silver needle from her storage space and repeatedly pierced several acupoints on Shang Xiche's head. Then she pressed Shang Xiche to the ground and, like a child throwing a tantrum, beat him mercilessly!

Instead of fighting back, Shang Xiche, who was being beaten, let out a strange groan.

Consort Yin: "..."

The medicine that girl gave the emperor was truly unbelievable, yet it worked.

But why did she feel so relieved to see the emperor being beaten?

Consort Yin got dressed and stood up. Looking at Shang Xiche, who was lazily rolling on the ground, groaning and muttering in his sleep, she was a little worried: "Miss, the Emperor's face has turned green from being beaten. Is this alright?"

"Don't worry, he thinks he's sober, he won't blame anyone tomorrow," Ji Fengyao said, venting her anger. She walked towards the back window with her hands behind her back. "Your Majesty, just go to bed and sleep soundly. There might even be a reward tomorrow."

She jumped out of the window in one swift motion, and Ji Fengyao's figure disappeared from sight.

Consort Yin stared blankly at the window that had been restored to its original state for a while, then looked down at Shang Xiche, who was usually high and mighty and cruel to people, and hesitantly kicked him.

Seeing that he didn't resist, and even let out an excited hum, she kicked him hard again and again...

Over the years, Consort Yin's careful attempts to please and flatter Shang Xiche have finally been released from her grievances.
