When Empress Xian saw her coming back, she almost jumped as she walked, humming a tuneless tune in her heart, feeling very strange.
Did Luoer pick up gold? She looks so happy.
[The medicine prescribed by that swindler must not be taken by Aunt Defei and the others.]
"No, Daddy must have noticed something, otherwise Imperial Physician Lin wouldn't have turned a blind eye. If that were the case, I wouldn't have to worry about Concubine De and the other aunts."
"Luo'er, mother made egg custard."
Concubine Xian carried Yu Yiluo to the dining chair made for her by Concubine Shu, picked up the egg custard, blew on it and fed it to her.
[Hehe, I'm just hungry. Oh, the flowers and the fragrance are fine, so what's the problem?]
While thinking about things and eating a bowl of egg custard, Yu Yiluo saw a little bird flying to the window, so she got down from her chair.
[Since I can understand animal language, then I can know where the heroine is. ]
She walked towards the window with her short legs, and her two little tufts of hair swayed slightly with her movements, which made Empress Xian smile.
"It seems the princess likes that bird."
Huarui took the bowl from Empress Xian's hand and saw that not only did Yu Yiluo's approach not scare away the bird by the window, but the bird even flew to her hand and rubbed her little hand with its furry head.
"It's amazing," Aunt Zhang exclaimed in amazement, "The little princess is not only lovable to people, but also to birds."
After telling the bird what she needed, Yu Yiluo reached out and let the bird fly away, then returned to sit on the carpet.
[Haha, I'll know about Prince Duan's affairs later. It will definitely be very interesting.]
Although it's not as interesting as seeing it in person, it's still a good way to pass the time.
…
Concubine Shu had been waiting for the medicine for a long time but it still hadn't arrived. She suppressed her displeasure and asked Lu'er.
"Go to the Imperial Hospital and see when the medicine is ready. If it's not ready yet, ask for it and make it yourself."
It turns out that old age is no longer helpful. Even with such mild symptoms, it is still so unbearable. If she hadn't been worried that the emperor would catch her, she wouldn't have suffered this.
Those delicate concubines must be feeling bad too.
Lu'er responded and left, then opened the door, just in time to see Doctor Lin coming in with the boiled medicine.
"I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. Miss Tian said that this medicine needs to be slowly boiled to be effective. So, she brewed it herself and I brought it to you."
"Doctor Lin, please come in quickly."
Lu Er opened the door and let someone in. Doctor Lin put down the medicine and said gently, "Excuse me, Your Highness, for keeping you waiting. Miss Tian said that if you drink her medicine, you will be cured in a few days."
After saying a few more words, Doctor Lin watched Concubine Shu finish the medicine before turning around and leaving.
Concubine Shu took a handkerchief and wiped her mouth, then signaled Lu'er to take the bowl away.
"Your Majesty, I heard that the Emperor specifically ordered that your medicine be brewed separately. Is that possible..."
"No," Concubine Shu interrupted Xiao Shize firmly, "Since ancient times, there has never been an emperor who didn't care about the comments of future generations and historians on him."
Even though the emperor is not on good terms with her now, he still needs to find a plausible excuse for the sake of the historian, even if he wants to kill her in his heart.
Just like when Prince Yueqing was executed, future generations will not think that the emperor killed his brothers and sisters, but will only think that it was his own fault.
"I'm worried that the little princess might be involved this time. What if the emperor takes action against you, even if it's against the will of the world?"
Concubine Shu sneered, "That's perfect, when he produces evidence that it was me, he will be the one being pointed at.
…
The next day.
Tian Lan packed her things and planned to go see the emperor. Unexpectedly, as soon as she opened the door, she saw Eunuch Cao coming in and said with a smile, "Miss Tian, the emperor asked me to take you in for questioning."
"Okay," Tian Lan closed the door and went to Qingxin Palace with Eunuch Cao.
Tian Lan was already dazzled by the magnificent palaces along the way. When she arrived at the entrance of Qingxin Palace, she withdrew her gaze and walked in.
"Your Majesty, Miss Tian has arrived."
"This humble girl pays homage to His Majesty."
[That's quite polite.]
Yu Yiluo raised her eyebrows and looked at Tian Lan.
"Get up, Miss Tian, you are a kind-hearted doctor who has relieved my harem's worries. What reward do you want?"
After thanking her, Tian Lan stood up and said righteously, "I don't ask for rewards. I just want to treat patients and make them recover. I don't ask for anything else."
[Tsk tsk, you sound better than singing. If you hadn't just looked at that golden pillar a dozen times, I would have believed you were really up to no good.]
"Oh?" The emperor's tone rose as he laughed joyfully. "Miss Tian is a doctor with a kind heart. I think a reward is indeed vulgar. You people in the martial arts world have your own rules. I won't let Miss Tian's kindness be ruined by a reward."
Tian Lan was dumbfounded when she heard that. If she said that, shouldn't the emperor appreciate her even more, and then waved his hand to reward her even more? Why did he suddenly say that he would not reward her anymore?
What the hell is written in those damn notebooks? They are all lies.
Yu Yiluo laughed out loud in her heart.
[Good boy, you never expected that Daddy would predict your prediction.]
The emperor curled his lips, as if he didn't even look at Tian Lan's face which was like a palette.
"Why, is there something else going on, Miss Tian?"
Tian Lan forced out a smile that was uglier than crying, and said with a heartache: "Your Majesty, there is no more. Thank you for your consideration. I will take my leave."
Eunuch Cao sent the man out, feeling very disdainful. He actually wanted to play the game of saying one thing and thinking another in front of the emperor. He was simply overestimating his own abilities.
"Eunuch Cao, please tell the girls, the people of Jianghu have their own rules. Tell the ladies not to break the rules by using vulgar things like silver."
I was originally thinking that if I couldn't get any money from the emperor, I could always get some from those concubines, but I didn't expect that the last road would be blocked by someone.
Tian Lan almost broke her back teeth while trying to maintain her expression.
I thought I could get the reward and leave the palace, but now it seems I have no choice but to wait.
Otherwise it would be a wasted trip.
Anyway, the prescription she prescribed won't cause any harm, so it's okay to wait for two more days.
…
What Tian Lan could not have anticipated was that only one day later, she was hurriedly taken away by the palace maid.
"Where are you taking me?"
The maid continued walking, "The Concubine Dowager has been having nosebleeds all day. The Emperor has asked this servant to take you in for questioning."
The man took her to ask her something when he had a nosebleed, and she was so scared that she thought there was something wrong with the prescription he prescribed.
Thinking of this, I felt a little more relaxed.
"The Toffee is bleeding from the nose. What did you ask me to ask?"
"The girl will understand everything when she goes there."
As they were talking, the two of them soon arrived at the gate of Concubine Shu's palace.
The people at the door all looked unhappy. Tian Lan raised her eyebrows. It wouldn't kill her if she had a nosebleed, so why were they all so serious?
She stepped inside and saw that besides the emperor, there were also several concubines. She walked closer and saw a pale-faced woman lying on the couch opposite the emperor. She thought it was the so-called Concubine Shu.
[Emma, this tonic is really effective. It works so quickly.]
[Tian Lan wanted to run away, didn't she? Now that this old woman's business is involved, let's see how you can run.]
