“Ahhh…”
In Mingde Hall, Concubine Li wailed, covered her head with one hand, and leaned her trembling body on the edge of the table.
The headache was splitting, disrupting my breathing and making me break out in cold sweats.
The nanny shouted in panic: "Imperial Physician, call the Imperial Physician!"
"Ahhh——" Another shrill scream.
The palace maids were so frightened that they were trembling all over and fell to their knees on the ground.
The headache kept getting worse, and Concubine Li's face turned pale. She almost thought she was dying.
After a while, the imperial physician hurried over and the nanny helped the person to the bed.
At that time, Concubine Li felt weak and her limbs were limp. She could feel that her left leg had no strength at all and she had also lost some sensation, as if it no longer belonged to her.
She is gradually losing control of her body!
This realization horrified her. No, she could not accept becoming a useless person.
"Why is the queen's headache so severe this time?" the nanny asked worriedly.
After the imperial physician nervously diagnosed and asked questions, he gave Concubine Li acupuncture to relieve the pain.
"Acupuncture can only provide temporary relief, but it cannot completely cure the disease."
After hearing these words, Concubine Li could no longer hold back and fainted completely.
Concubine Li has suffered from headaches for many years, which have become more and more severe in recent years and are accompanied by other complications.
However, the imperial physician could not find the root of the problem, so he kept prescribing prescriptions for treatment, but there was no effect.
When she woke up and saw the new prescription written by the imperial physician, Concubine Li's eyes turned red and she threw the prescription away directly.
"Useless! Those imperial doctors are all useless and eat for free!"
"If they can't even cure a minor headache, what's the point of having them?"
"Your Majesty should chop off their heads and exterminate their entire clans."
The nanny whispered, "Your Majesty, calm down and don't get angry anymore. The imperial physician has instructed you to be less angry to avoid triggering your headache again."
Upon hearing this, Concubine Li became even angrier.
Her knuckles had turned white, and her voice was cold: "What else did the imperial physician say?"
The nanny said, "The imperial physician said that when Your Majesty gave birth to Princess Yongjia, she suffered a massive hemorrhage and nearly lost both her life and her life. This damaged her foundation, and over the years, she has been overly worried and anxious, and this has accumulated into a deep well of depression."
"Being angry for a moment, my body couldn't handle it, so I had a headache."
"As long as your Majesty maintains a good mood and takes herbal medicine every day, you will be well again after a month or so of rest."
Concubine Li had heard these words so many times that her ears were callused. The imperial physician kept repeating the same few words over and over again.
She scoffed lightly, "That's easy for you to say. This dog slave, with his own poor medical skills, is putting all the blame on me."
Mammy was worried.
Concubine Li had suffered from headaches for many years, with attacks occurring once a year and lasting for several days each time. However, gradually, the duration of the attacks became longer and longer each year.
It went from three to five days to eight to nine days, and now it takes a month to recover once an attack occurs.
If this continues, I'm afraid Concubine Li's body won't be able to bear it.
The nanny frowned and muttered, "She had an attack earlier this year, why is it happening again now? Her Majesty's health..."
"What did you say?"
"Are you cursing this palace?"
Concubine Li had a cold expression on her face and slapped the nanny in the face.
"Your Majesty, please calm down. Please spare my life!" The nanny knelt on the ground with her head lowered. "I am just worried about you..."
In an instant, Concubine Li's breathing became rapid, and her hands, which had just hit someone, became weak and powerless.
I feel exhausted again.
After the headache, she often felt palpitations and weakness in her hands and feet. Will there be a day when she can no longer move?
Concubine Li was very panicked.
"If Xie Linqian hadn't been unwilling to marry me, how could I have been sent to the palace by the Li family? How could I have become a victim of my family's pursuit of wealth and glory?"
"I have been in the palace for ten years. There have been countless intrigues and deceptions in this harem, and countless fights to the death. I have wasted countless efforts and endured countless grievances to get to where I am today."
"If it weren't for Xie Linqian, why would I have to live like this?"
"This lady, this lady loves him so much...but he refuses to fulfill my wish."
"He ruined all my sincerity."
The nanny listened in a daze. The queen was too obsessed with Xie Gong.
Concubine Li's face was full of hatred.
What she could not accept the most was that Xie Linqian actually fell in love with a lowly merchant girl.
She is the daughter of the Li family. How can she be inferior to a merchant girl?
Concubine Li said quietly, "You should have someone spread the news about Xue Yunzhu and Xie Linqian. Say that Xue Yunzhu abandoned Xie Linqian and married the Earl of Ningyuan."
Common people are most fond of gossip, especially gossip about famous families, which will become their after-dinner conversation.
"Xue Yunzhu gave birth to a bastard with another man. I don't believe Xie Linqian doesn't have any grievances in his heart. He can't tolerate Jiang Qingyao."
"It is truly disgraceful that the dignified Mr. Xie was abandoned by a merchant girl. How could the Xie family tolerate this?"
Concubine Li was full of expectations. She wanted to disrupt everything and make Jiang Qingyao and Xie Linqian live in unrest.
…
The people sent by Madam He reported everything they found out to her.
"The waiter at Tianzi Pavilion said that at that time, not only was Xie Yuchuan in Tianzi Pavilion, but Xie Gong was also there."
"The waiter recalled that there was nothing unusual, but what they did in the private room was unknown. It seemed that they were discussing something important."
"Xie Yuchuan also took out a pen and paper, as if he was going to write a letter."
"Madam left Tianzi Pavilion, and Xie Yuchuan saw her to the door."
Madam He asked someone to call Qin Yurong over.
Upon hearing this, Qin Yurong revealed a look of disbelief. "No, that's impossible. Rong'er saw it with her own eyes... Perhaps Mr. Xie was covering up for my mother-in-law?"
