Basha's eyes lit up after hearing Ye Qingqing's idea, and she nodded without hesitation, "I'll listen to you."
Footsteps sounded outside the door. Ye Qingqing winked at her, and Basha quickly lay back down, closing her eyes tightly. Ye Qingqing then put the paper and pen into her bag, actually storing them in her spatial storage so that no one would notice.
The Queen entered, and she said angrily, "It's that vile Lady Wu! I knew it was her doing."
She had just interrogated the maid and guards and learned that Lady Wu had visited Basha the day before, and Basha had been sullen ever since. The Queen knew that Lady Wu was skilled in using medicine, and it was definitely this vile woman who gave Basha the medicine, and then said some things to provoke Basha and force her to die.
The Queen felt that Lady Wu's purpose was definitely aimed at her. This shameless woman even coveted her throne and had been up to no good behind the scenes. This time, she had finally fallen into Lady Wu's hands. Just you wait and see!
Looking at Basha, who was still 'sleeping' on the bed, the Queen's heart sank. "Still not awake?"
Ye Qingqing pretended to check the time, "It's only been twenty minutes, let's wait a little longer."
The Queen was extremely anxious, pacing around the room and occasionally clasping her hands together in prayer, hoping that Basha would wake up.
Four or five minutes later, Ye Qingqing pretended to check Basha's body and poked her. Basha understood and opened her eyes with a soft moan.
"I'm awake... Thank God."
Ye Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief, and the Queen was even more delighted, admiring Ye Qingqing even more. Just now, Basha had even stopped breathing; the medical skills of China were truly amazing.
"Bassa, how are you feeling?" the Queen asked with loving eyes.
However, Basha didn't react for a long time, her eyes were blank. The Queen asked her several questions, but she didn't respond. She just stared blankly. Ye Qingqing's lips twitched. Her acting was pretty good.
"Dr. Ye, what's wrong with Basha? Please take a look at her!" The Queen sensed something was wrong and became anxious.
"Don't rush, let me see."
Ye Qingqing pretended to check again and asked some questions, but Basha remained expressionless with a blank stare, like an idiot.
With a long sigh, Ye Qingqing said regretfully, "Her Highness the Princess has been taking the medicine for too long. The drug has a strong stimulating effect on her brain, and she has become mentally impaired."
The queen stared in disbelief, unable to believe her ears. Had she gone mad?
What's the difference between this and being dead?
We can't possibly let a silly princess wear a wedding dress!
"Can it still be cured?" the Queen asked anxiously.
"Recovery is definitely possible, but when and to what extent it will recover depends on luck, and the timeframe is uncertain. It could be a year or two, or it could be eight or ten years, or it could very well be like this for the rest of my life," Ye Qingqing said ambiguously.
She didn't intend for Basha to pretend to be a fool for too long, as long as she could get through the engagement.
The Queen's face grew increasingly grim. Fearing that things might change if things dragged on, the King set the wedding date for next month, leaving no time for preparation. Basha certainly wouldn't be able to recover.
What should I do about getting married?
Ye Qingqing asked with concern, "Is the Queen worried about the engagement?"
"Yes, the wedding is next month. How can Basha get married looking like this? People will gossip, and His Majesty will blame me." The Queen was in a bad mood and vented her feelings.
Ye Qingqing chuckled inwardly and deliberately said, "His Majesty has only arranged a marriage for the princess. I didn't see any detailed reports in the newspapers. I've heard the common people talking about it, saying that a princess from the royal family is getting married, but no one knows which princess it is. Since Basha can't marry, other princesses can!"
