When the people in the room saw Tian Lan come in, their eyes all fell on her. They felt that the atmosphere in the room was not right. Tian Lan lowered her eyes and bowed respectfully.
If looks could kill, Concubine Shu would have wanted to cut Tian Lan into pieces.
Not only did it fail to relieve her physical discomfort, it also made her already unwell condition worse. There were so many tonics in it, it was clearly tonic for her.
Empress Xian knew that Yu Yiluo wanted Concubine Shu to bleed, but she didn't expect that the little guy meant to make Concubine Shu bleed for real.
"Get up."
Hearing the emperor asking her to stand up, Tian Lan thanked him and stood up. Before she could say anything, she heard the concubine beside the emperor speak.
"So this is Miss Tian from the Divine Doctor Valley. I've heard that the people in the Divine Doctor Valley have unparalleled medical skills, but you didn't cure her illness, but instead caused her problems."
Concubine Shu looked at the Dowager Concubine and said, "Not to mention the Dowager Concubine herself, even someone with a healthy body can't withstand such nourishment from you."
Tian Lan had not seen Concubine Shu in the past few days since she entered the palace. Today was the first time she saw her. Seeing that the emperor had no intention of stopping her from speaking, she understood that this person must be someone who had a say in front of the emperor.
So she still said respectfully: "Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty. There is no way there is anything wrong with the prescription I prescribed for the Concubine Dowager."
She put some tonic in it, fearing that this person might have eaten something nutritious and then blamed it on her.
"Oh," Concubine Shu stretched out the last word and stared at Tian Lan, "So this means I've wronged Miss Tian. I heard that you personally prepared the medicine from the beginning to the end, is that correct?"
"yes."
Tian Lan replied without hesitation.
"Since you did it yourself, and the Toffee had problems after drinking your medicine, do you think we should look for you?"
This shouldn't be the case. Tian Lan couldn't understand why. She looked at the bowl on the table and asked, "Could I take a look at the medicine in the bowl?"
The emperor nodded and signaled Eunuch Cao to pick up the bowl on the table and hand it to Tian Lan.
"Miss Tian, please take a good look."
Taking the bowl, which still had half a bowl of medicine in it, Tian Lan picked it up, smelled it, and frowned slightly.
Why are there so many tonics? Did she grab some once and forget about them?
There shouldn't be so many, right? I must have forgotten so many times to put in so many.
Tian Lan put down the bowl and looked at Doctor Lin beside her.
"Doctor Lin, you were here when I was making the medicine. I don't know why there are so many tonics in it."
Doctor Lin was afraid of being implicated, so he quickly said, "Miss Tian, you said you didn't want anyone around when you were getting the medicine. How would I know why there were so many extra tonics? Think carefully about whether someone else had done it."
Tian Lan was silent for a while, feeling annoyed that she wanted the reward too much but was worried that her recipe would be discovered by others, so she did not let anyone else do it.
Concubine Shu secretly cursed Tian Lan in her heart for being so stupid. The secret guard actually believed that she was from the Divine Doctor Valley.
It seems that her secret guards have become really lazy after accompanying her to guard the tomb of the late emperor for all these years. Not only are their martial arts skills not as good as those of the palace secret guards, but now they can't even judge people.
However, the fact that the person in front of her was not the Divine Doctor Gu was exactly what she wanted. If he couldn't cure her, wouldn't it make the evildoer's story even more real?
"Looking at Miss Tian's expression, I think I made a mistake out of carelessness."
De Fei looked at Tian Lan with a smile, "Fortunately, it was discovered in time, otherwise the Concubine's body would not be able to bear it."
The emperor's face was gloomy. "Come here, take the man down to the court."
Tian Lan was so frightened that her face turned pale. She didn't expect the emperor's attitude to change so quickly, and her head was completely confused.
"Your Majesty," Concubine Shu said softly, her voice a little weak, "Never mind. Miss Tian came to the palace with good intentions. She may have been too nervous and made a mistake. Please forgive her."
【Hey, you're colluding with me now that you're trying to protect me. 】
[Okay, I was worried that you two wouldn't be able to get together and solve the hidden danger of Tian Lan, but I didn't expect you to actually get together. The plot is quite well-rounded.]
Empress Xian heard Yu Yiluo's inner voice and said, "Your Majesty, the Concubine Dowager is tolerant. Miss Tian is indeed kind-hearted. In my humble opinion, since the Concubine Dowager and Luo'er's first birthday celebration is approaching, please forgive Miss Tian."
The emperor, who was thinking this, looked a little relieved when he saw Concubine Xian handing him the ladder.
"Since the Concubine Dowager and Concubine Xian have pleaded for you, I will not pursue you. You will stay with the Concubine Dowager and make sure she heals her."
[Hahaha, how can Tian Lan, who can't even cure an animal, cure Concubine Shu? Even if she dares to cure Concubine Shu, I'm afraid no one would trust her anymore.]
Tian Lan, who was happy that she had escaped, was stunned when she heard the second half of the emperor's sentence.
How could she cure the concubine? Her medical skills were so limited that she couldn't even cure animals, let alone humans.
If I had known earlier, I should have stolen more medicine. Now that I have come back, I wonder if he will kill me if he can't cure the patient.
Concubine Shu's face froze slightly for a moment. Letting this swindler punish her would be like asking for her life.
"Don't worry, Auntie. Miss Tian is from the Divine Doctor Valley and will definitely make you healed."
After the emperor finished speaking, he instructed Tian Lan to take good care of Concubine Shu, and hurriedly called away Doctor Lin from the Imperial Hospital.
[What does it mean to shoot oneself in the foot? This is exactly what Concubine Shu did.]
[Hmph, you're trying to use the fact that even the Divine Doctor Valley couldn't cure the harem's illness to make the evildoer's story even more convincing. So, just bear with it.]
…
After the emperor and his companions left, the room became quiet and Lu'er glared at Tian Lan.
"You're from the Divine Doctor Valley. I think you're more of a charlatan than a charlatan. If you can't cure the concubine, I'll see if the emperor will chop off your head."
"Green."
Concubine Shu scolded her, and Lu'er immediately shut her mouth, but her expression was still angry.
"The person next to me is quite straightforward. I hope he didn't scare you."
Seeing that Concubine Shu was harmed to this extent by herself, and she had just spoken up for herself and was now comforting her so kindly, Tian Lan instantly felt that there were still good people in this palace.
She shook her head and said, "Thank you, Concubine, for helping me escape this disaster. I am deeply grateful."
Concubine Shu waved her hand and said, "I'm glad you didn't scare me. Lu'er said that because she was worried about me. You don't have to take it to heart."
Seeing that she was still standing, Concubine Shu gestured for her to sit down.
At this time, Xiao Shize came in from outside, and Tian Lan was a little surprised to see him.
"Why are you here?"
Feeling that Concubine Shu was not arrogant, Tian Lan's heart relaxed. Now seeing Xiao Shize, she felt even more at ease.
The person in front of her had saved her once and kindly reminded her that the palace was not the place for her.
"I am the concubine's guard."
"So you two know each other," Concubine Shu pretended to be surprised, "What a coincidence."
After talking for a while, Concubine Shu asked Tian Lan to go back and sent Lu'er away.
Lu'er glared at Xiao Shize. In her opinion, Xiao Shize was not a good person since he was involved with Concubine Huang. Now that this man was valued by the Concubine Dowager, she disliked him even more.
"Lu'er is a simple-minded girl, don't bother with her."
Concubine Shu looked at Lu'er's back and rubbed her temples.
