So the maid has been in a daze since yesterday afternoon.
Anyway, she didn't understand what her master meant by "stopping medication after recovery".
However, judging from Consort Hui's eagerness to cause trouble today, the disadvantages outweigh the advantages.
"Help me to wash up and get dressed."
Consort Liang sat up in bed, touched her face, and thought to herself that she had put on a heavy layer of makeup yesterday in order to look radiant.
To avoid being exposed, they had no choice but to continue covering up the evidence in Consort Hui's front courtyard.
"I'll make my makeup heavier so that Consort Hui can't tell that I've recovered from my illness."
Having already put on her shoes and stepped out of bed, Consort Liang was trembling all over. This trembling was not due to fear of Consort Hui, but rather because of something wrong with her body, and she simply couldn't hold on any longer.
Hearing her mistress say this, and thinking about the thin arm she had just helped, the maid sighed, her heart filled with unbearable sorrow and hardship.
If you don't care about your own body, no one can take your place no matter how much pain others are in.
The maid could not understand such behavior that ruined her body and even her life.
Despite not understanding, the maid still tried her best to find ways to fill in the gaps in her mistress's knowledge.
Perfect timing! We can use the ginseng that the Eighth Prince's wife sent earlier to help our master out.
As for the potential side effects of not being able to tolerate the supplements, who cares about that?
"Don't worry, my lady, I understand."
"The Eighth Prince's Consort just sent over a ginseng root; I'll slice it for you then."
The maid didn't understand what her mistress was trying to do, given her temperament, but she suspected it was closely related to Prince Yinzhi outside the palace.
After listening to the maid's words, Consort Liang nodded in agreement.
At this moment, Consort Liang was sitting in front of her dressing table, and through the large bronze mirror, she could clearly see her own expression.
Not too good, but not too bad either.
After all, for women in the imperial harem, even catching a cold would be treated with great care.
Originally, Consort Liang's illness wasn't that life-threatening. It was just that the imperial physicians were good at exaggerating, and Consort Liang herself was afraid that if she recovered too quickly, Consort Hui would continue to humiliate her. So, she subconsciously had the idea of pretending to be sick to avoid people.
Now, because of Lady Guoluo's visit, Consort Liang had no choice but to put aside all these messy matters, deal with her son's situation first, and send Yinzhi off on his errands.
She allowed her maids to dress and groom her, and if Consort Liang felt dissatisfied with anything, she would point it out and ask the maids to adjust it.
Concerned that the bright daylight would reveal the true condition of her body, Consort Liang applied her makeup with extra care.
Compared to his previous perfunctory attitude, Liang Guiren is now showing some interest.
After she finished washing and dressing, Lady Liang stood up, looking radiant.
"Isn't this a bit too high-profile?"
The maid didn't think much of it while she was getting ready, but once she was all dressed up, well, something's not right.
You should know that the master had always avoided the limelight, and her beautiful face was maintained entirely by natural beauty.
Unlike nowadays, everything applied to the face is exquisite.
Consort Liang knew that this was too high-profile, but her appearance couldn't withstand the damage done to her before.
"That's fine. Let's hurry to the main hall in the front courtyard."
Touching his cheek, Liang Guiren's expression hardened.
The maid bowed her head and said, "Yes, I understand."
Carefully helping Consort Liang out of the room, the two of them, mistress and servant, headed nervously towards the main hall in the front courtyard.
...
Qixiang Palace Courtyard
"Tsk, you're really all better?"
Xiu Ning stopped under a tree that had lost all its leaves, her expression calm.
Chunyu stood less than three meters behind Xiuning.
"Yes, these past two days, apart from needing to go to the main hall of Chuxiu Palace to pay her respects to Consort Hui in the morning, Consort Liang has been taking a walk in the Imperial Garden at a fixed time in the afternoon."
Many palace servants who had seen Consort Liang said she looked much better and her attire was quite different from before.
After telling her master the news she had received, Chunyu lowered her head slightly, her eyes filled with doubt.
"This servant believes that, given Consort Liang's health condition, we should wait for half a month."
I didn't expect it to heal so quickly, it's like it's been cheated.
Xiu Ning scoffed lightly, "It was prepared ahead of schedule, huh?"
It must be said that Consort Liang was quite ruthless to herself. In order to allow Yinzhi to leave the capital smoothly for official business, she didn't even care about her own health.
"The Emperor has already decided to send Yinyi and the other three out of the capital on official business."
However, after Consort Liang got into trouble, the issue of Yinzhi's quota caused some commotion.
But now that Consort Liang has recovered from her illness, the water droplet has fallen and should belong to Yinzhi; no one else can take it away.
Because, apart from Yinzhi, the mothers of Yinyi, Yinzhen, and Yinyu were not pushovers.
"My lord, Prince Yinyi sent a letter just two days ago saying that they are about to depart from the capital."
Judging from the journey, it's very likely I won't be able to make it back for the Chinese New Year.
At this time, the weather is cold but not too cold, making it difficult to choose either the official road or any means of transportation.
Because it wasn't time for corvée labor, the dirt road that had been used for a year was already in a state of disrepair.
Riding a horse is cold, and traveling by carriage is slow.
Given the long distance between the north and south, Xiu Ning had no intention of letting Yin Yi return for the New Year. She only hoped that this trip would go smoothly and that he could return to the capital next spring.
Yes, Xiuning, the mother, has pushed back the date of Yinyi's return to next year.
At this moment, Yin Yi, who was far away in his residence outside the palace, had no idea. Otherwise, he would definitely be both amused and exasperated. This was truly his own mother.
"It's better if they can't come back. Otherwise, in such a rush, if something happens on the way, there won't be anyone to take care of them."
Xiuning waved her hand and then asked Chunyu to prepare some more good medicinal herbs.
Yin Yi's wife will definitely prepare it for him, but Xiu Ning, as his mother, cannot ignore it.
