"Her Majesty's body has been severely damaged by poison over the years, and the previous detoxification methods were too harmful to her body. Therefore, recuperation will not be achieved overnight. Her Majesty must persevere!"
Lin Yuxin calmly described the Empress's physical condition. After saving the Empress, she only told the Emperor about the Empress's condition, and it seemed that the Emperor had not told the Empress.
The Empress only has five years to live, so it's best not to tell her and Xiao Hao, lest it upset them and affect their condition.
The Empress listened to Lin Yuxin's words with a calm expression. She knew her physical condition and that she was already blessed by heaven for surviving this time. She was also allowed to recognize her son. The two months of living together day and night made her feel a happiness she had never experienced in many years.
So every day she can live is a bonus, and every extra day she can spend with Lin'er is a bonus.
The Empress raised her hand and stroked Cheng Tinghao's face, her eyes full of affection.
After listening to Lin Yuxin's words, Cheng Tinghao knew that although his sister hadn't said many bad things, she would have said so directly if the condition could really be cured. She wouldn't have used recuperation as an excuse. This meant that his sister didn't have a better solution.
His mother's health had been poor ever since she was detoxified, and she would fall ill from time to time, which made him, as her son, feel sorry for her.
"Sister, is there no other way?"
Cheng Tinghao looked at Lin Yuxin and asked expectantly. In his mind, Lin Yuxin was a goddess who could do everything.
"Xiao Hao, your sister has some skills, but she is not a god. Your sister said she would do her best to treat him, and she will do her best. As for the rest, we can only leave it to fate."
Lin Yuxin looked at Cheng Tinghao with a serious expression and said.
"I'm sorry, sister, I...!"
Cheng Tinghao was speechless for a moment, realizing he had said the wrong thing. He looked at Lin Yuxin in a panic, wanting to apologize.
"Xiao Hao, you don't need to apologize. I know you're just worried and confused. Don't be sad, I'll do my best."
Lin Yuxin offered heartwarming comfort to the anxious child.
"Ah Hao, your mother is fine, don't worry. Your mother still wants to be there for you as you grow up and see you get married and have children."
The Empress also spoke up to comfort her. This child had only been back for a short time, but he cared a lot about her. Every day when he came to pay his respects over the past two months, he would ask about her diet and daily life to see if she was feeling unwell.
The Empress was very pleased; her child was very filial.
Hearing what the two of them said, Cheng Tinghao could only put his mind at ease for the time being. Although he was young, he knew that some things could not be rushed.
Lin Yuxin had lunch there, chatted with the Empress for a while, gave her acupuncture again, and fed her some fairy dew.
Before leaving, she left the Empress several bottles of nourishing pills that she had concocted.
From now on, the Empress can only rely on this to maintain her health. She also added some fairy dew to the elixir, hoping that the Empress would recover after taking it for a period of time.
After leaving Kunning Palace, Lin Yuxin asked the palace eunuchs about the Emperor's location, and then went there by herself.
The Emperor was taking a midday rest in the Hall of Mental Cultivation. When Lin Yuxin arrived, the Emperor had just finished his lunch. He had many things to do today, so he didn't go to the Kunning Palace to disturb the Empress.
"Your Majesty, Princess Pingning has arrived!"
Just as Eunuch Liu finished serving the Emperor his meal, his apprentice came in to report.
"What's she doing here again? Didn't she already leave?"
The emperor asked in confusion, clearly having forgotten that he was the one who sent someone to find him.
Eunuch Liu glanced at the Emperor, waved to the palace servants to clear the food from the table, and then whispered something in the Emperor's ear:
"Your Majesty, it was you who had Princess Pingning eat lunch before coming over."
Eunuch Liu dared not say that the Emperor had a bad memory, so he could only offer a reminder.
"Oh! Is that so? Okay, let her in!"
The Emperor then realized that it made sense. With the help of Eunuch Liu, he wiped his mouth, washed his hands, straightened his clothes, and then got up and sat back down at his desk. Just then, he saw Lin Yuxin swagger in.
The Emperor couldn't bear to look at her; this girl didn't act like a normal young lady from a wealthy family at all!
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
Lin Yuxin bowed to the Emperor.
"Hmm, how is the Empress?"
The Emperor nodded, then looked at her and asked with concern about the Empress's condition.
"Your Majesty, the Empress's health remains the same as before, with no changes. However, I have noticed that the Empress's spirits are much better than before, which indicates that the medicines and methods are effective! As long as she continues to take them and maintains a good mood, she may see some improvement."
Lin Yuxin answered truthfully, saying that she couldn't guarantee anything, and that the things in her space weren't omnipotent. She had already snatched the Empress's life back from the clutches of the King of Hell, which was already defying fate.
If she still wants a perfectly healthy body, there's nothing she can do about it!
She had used everything she could in that space, but the effect wasn't very noticeable. She had done her best, and the rest was up to fate.
"I understand!"
The Emperor was also filled with disappointment upon hearing this. This girl had previously said that the Empress's health would only last for five more years at most, and he suddenly felt that his time was running out!
"I summoned you here alone to ask if you could examine Prince Mu's illness?"
The Emperor composed himself, then looked at Lin Yuxin and asked.
"Prince Mu? Are you sure you want me to treat Prince Mu? Aren't you afraid I'll use this to settle personal scores? Prince Mu wasn't exactly polite to me just now."
Lin Yuxin was surprised; she was known for being very petty and wouldn't let her enemies get away with anything.
