After she finished yelling, large tears fell down her cheeks.
"What, you owe me money for a consultation? If I don't talk to you about the money, am I supposed to bring up your few hairs?"
Mo Bilian looked up at Mo Yunzhao, who was walking gracefully towards her, and her face flushed red with humiliation.
Her eyes were filled with tears as she looked pitifully at Ling Jingyu.
Ling Jingyu ignored her and only looked at Mo Yunzhao: "Ah Zhao, how much has she paid back?"
"Apart from the 1,050 taels from that day, none of it has been returned."
Ling Jingyu hummed in agreement, "Within three days..."
"I have something to do, I'm leaving now." Mo Bilian didn't dare let him finish speaking, and turned around and ran away in a hurry.
Mo Yunzhao raised an eyebrow slightly. "What will happen to Mo Jinghao?"
Ling Jingyu shrugged: "I don't know, but my treatment plan is correct, and no one can find fault with it."
What can Mo Jinghao do? He gets pricked no less than three hundred times a day, and he's practically a hedgehog from all the pricking.
Seven bowls of medicine a day, all dark and the most bitter kind.
He drank so much that his face turned black and bitter, giving him a mean look.
As for whether it's better or not?
He can hold chopsticks with his hands and his feet can wobble slightly, but there's been absolutely no progress in anything else.
He wanted to send someone to ask Mo Bilian to invite Ling Jingyu out to diagnose him again, but the message kept getting through and he couldn't get any information from inside.
...
Upon hearing Emperor Yanwu's summons, the Empress was overjoyed. She took a bath, burned incense, and carefully dressed herself in bright colors before riding out in her phoenix carriage.
"Your Majesty, the Imperial Noble Consort is currently under house arrest. It seems she has summoned you this time to discuss the matter of deposing her," a palace maid whispered beside her.
The Empress raised her hand to touch her temple, a smile she couldn't hide on her lips. "That's not necessarily true. His Majesty is a man who cherishes the past and values ​​relationships."
Emperor Yanwu reigned for decades, but he only had three women in his harem: the late empress, the imperial concubine, and her.
The late Empress is dead. If the Imperial Noble Consort is deposed, she will be the only one in the harem to receive the Emperor's favor.
She truly became the empress, the only one favored among the three thousand concubines in the harem.
The palace maid said, "I heard that Doctor Yang cured the plague-stricken village, and the Third Prince was also there. At that time, Lord Mo even promised on behalf of His Highness the Crown Prince that if anything happened, the Crown Prince would request to be deposed and become a commoner."
The smile on the Empress's lips vanished instantly.
"The Emperor will not depose the Crown Prince."
She was certain because she knew the emperor very well.
The palace maid advised, "That's not necessarily true. If one or two children die, it's unlikely, but what if all the children in the plague-stricken village die?"
The Empress glared at her angrily, "What nonsense are you spouting? Shut up."
The palace maid nodded and said sincerely, "This servant is also thinking of you. We're just one step away. Besides, if something happens to the patients the Third Prince is treating, then the Third Prince will be demoted. Your Highness, you must make plans soon."
The Empress raised her hand, stopping her from speaking further.
The palace maid then shut her mouth.
With its red walls and green tiles, it exudes the grandeur of an imperial palace.
The imperial carriage passed through one empty palace after another, including the palace where the Imperial Noble Consort was imprisoned, and the Phoenix Palace where the late Empress once lived.
The imperial carriage did not stop, but the Empress's thoughts remained in the Fenglin Palace.
This is the Empress's palace, but since the late Empress passed away, she, despite being the Empress, was not entitled to reside here.
This is the residence that the Emperor reserved for the late Empress.
Since she used a magic trick to get the emperor to favor her and was fortunate enough to conceive a child, she has not been summoned by the emperor to serve him in bed for more than twenty years, and neither has the Imperial Noble Consort.
The Emperor spent his days and nights in the Fenglin Palace, which no longer housed the late Empress.
