Chapter 111 Things are getting worse



The two of them entered the palace in a carriage.

In order to grab the credit, Su Zhiyao immediately knelt down to show her loyalty after entering the palace and seeing Concubine Xian.

"Don't worry, Concubine Xian, I will definitely be able to cure the little princess!"

The virtuous concubine opened her eyelids, leaned on the chaise longue and glanced at her indifferently.

Then he looked at Su Jinyue, "Su Jinyue, you are so bold, you dare to find someone to fool me!"

"Your Majesty, please forgive me."

Su Jinyue knelt down at this time, lowered her eyes and said: "I dare not fool your majesty."

Concubine Xian narrowed her eyes, "Don't dare to fool me? Then why did you bring her into the palace?"

"Su Zhiyao said that there is a way to cure the little princess. I think with one more person, Her Majesty the Concubine can rest assured."

Su Zhiyao heard this, a hint of pride flashed across her face, and she looked at Concubine Xian and said, "That's right! I have studied medicine since I was young, so I am no worse than my sister! I do have some insights into the little princess's condition."

"Oh? Then tell me, how can we cure the little princess's illness?"

The virtuous concubine asked seemingly nonchalantly, but her eyes were as sharp as a knife as she examined Su Zhiyao in front of her.

Su Zhiyao immediately lowered her head and said, "As for the little princess's situation, I guess she may have been too frightened and uneasy, which led to her keeping silent."

"You can use a calming method, supplemented by mild medicinal food, to slowly regulate your mind. I happen to have a warming and nourishing recipe here."

Upon hearing this, Concubine Xian turned to look at Su Jinyue, her eyes showing a hint of amusement: "Miss Su, what do you think of this?"

Su Jinyue replied calmly: "The little princess's condition does require patient care. At the same time, I think we should find something that the little princess likes and is interested in to stimulate her to speak again, which will be more effective."

"Well, that does sound reasonable. Both of you have a point."

Concubine Xian fiddled with her nails and said, "It's a pity that the little princess doesn't need so many people to serve her."

Su Zhiyao was afraid that Concubine Xian would choose Su Jinyue to stay, so she kowtowed and said, "Concubine Xian, please let me stay with the little princess. I will do my best to treat her."

Intending to suppress Su Jinyue, Concubine Xian nodded and then changed the subject.

"In that case, Miss Su will go and treat the little princess for me. If the little princess gets better, I will reward her handsomely! If not, don't blame me for being merciless!"

After saying that, Concubine Xian looked at Su Jinyue and said, "You will stay in Lifu Palace and wait for my orders."

It seems that he wants to treat her as a slave.

Su Jinyue did not rush to resist, but only kowtowed and said, "Yes, Madam."

Seeing that Su Jinyue was doing her duty, Concubine Xian was too lazy to embarrass her now. "You all should leave. Caizhu, take Miss Su to find a place to live closer to Lifu Palace."

"Yes, madam."

The virtuous concubine waved her hand, signaling the two to leave.

Su Zhiyao and Su Jinyue left the palace together.

As soon as she left the palace, Su Zhiyao's mood became high.

Su Zhiyao said provocatively: "Sister, you don't have to worry about the little princess's illness. Just stay in the palace and serve the virtuous concubine well in the next few days."

Su Jinyue smiled calmly, as if she didn't care at all. "I will follow the arrangements of the Concubine Xian, and I hope that you can help the little princess recover soon. After all, her health is the most important thing."

Su Zhiyao chuckled proudly, "Of course, sister, don't worry about me, my medical skills are not inferior to yours!"

After saying that, she turned around and walked away, her steps full of confidence and pride!

This scene happened to be witnessed by a group of guards in front of the palace gate and the young palace maids and eunuchs passing by, and the discussion quietly spread.

Su Jinyue was led by Caizhu alone to a remote courtyard.

Although this courtyard is not large, it has an elegant layout and is extremely quiet, making it a rare place for meditation.

Cai Zhu said respectfully: "Miss Su, please rest here first. If you need anything, please feel free to tell me."

"Also, the Concubine Xian said that if she needs you, Miss Su, please come at her call."

Su Jinyue nodded, "Yes, there are some girls."

Seeing Su Jinyue's polite attitude, Caizhu had no intention of making things difficult for her, "Then Miss Su, please rest here first."

After Caizhu left, Su Jinyue did not rush to rest, but looked around the courtyard, thinking about every next step in his mind.

She knew very well that Concubine Xian did not trust her now, and asked Su Zhiyao to treat the little princess because she did not want you to have any chance.

Su Jinyue wanted to go out for a walk, but as soon as she left the yard, she heard people talking outside.

Su Jinyue hid behind the wall nimbly and looked out through the gap, only to see several palace maids talking outside the wall.

"Have you heard? Today, Miss Su brought Miss Su II into the palace together. It was Miss Su who was supposed to treat the little princess, but somehow she became Miss Su II after she came out of Concubine Xian's palace."

Another maid said, "Sister He Cui heard it all in the palace. It was you, Miss Su, who promised the Concubine Xian that she would be able to cure the little princess, so the Concubine Xian changed the person!"

Another older palace maid interrupted and said, "Let's stop talking about this. The waters in the palace are very deep. Let's just do our own work and avoid getting into trouble!"

"Sister, you are really a coward. There is no noble person living here."

Their words gradually faded away with a burst of laughter, and Su Jinyue seemed to be thinking about something.

She turned back into the hall, with a plan in mind.

A few days passed and life in the palace was peaceful.

The virtuous concubine often assigned Su Jinyue trivial tasks, and she also quietly learned about the situation in the palace.

Occasionally, he would chat with Caizhu and other palace maids, and learn about the little princess's situation intentionally or unintentionally.

Two days passed and the little princess's condition did not improve.

Su Jinyue was a little worried, but since Concubine Xian didn't say anything, she couldn't overstep her authority.

On the afternoon of the third day, Su Jinyue was in the yard holding the medical book she had found.

Caizhu came running over, looking worried: "Miss Su, the little princess's condition has not improved, but has gotten worse today!"

"Miss Su Er is at a loss, so Consort Xian asked me to take you to the Little Princess' Palace!"

Su Jinyue frowned slightly and said in a deep voice: "There is no time to lose, take me there immediately."

Caizhu did not dare to hesitate. After nodding, she hurriedly took Su Jinyue towards the little princess's palace!

Inside the palace, the little princess lay on the bed, pale, curled up in the corner of the bed.

Su Zhiyao was holding a little princess' favorite toy to coax her, but the little princess just curled up in the corner and refused to come out. It was obvious that she was at her wits' end.

"Let me see the little princess."
