The next day, when Sheng Xiyan woke up, it was almost noon.
Hua Xia opened the curtain,
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. The Emperor has asked for leave from Jingren Palace, saying that you should rest well today and don't need to go anywhere."
Sheng Xiyan stretched out his arms and said,
"Have Xiao Zhuozi invite Court Judge Wu and Court Judge Wang to come to Yaohua Palace in an hour."
Huaxia and Meixiang helped me put on my dress.
"My Lady, are you going to see Cui Guiyi? Why do you care about her?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, it would be better if she couldn't wake up. Then no one would compete with you for the throne, and the Emperor could still favor you alone."
Sheng Xiyan said calmly: "I eat your salary and share your worries."
An hour later, the ceremonial procession arrived at the gate of Yaohua Palace.
Judge Wu and Judge Wang were already waiting.
The reason why Sheng Xiyan did not come to see Cui Nianmi alone was to prevent someone from framing her. After all, she and Cui Nianmi are now competing for the position of favorite concubine.
"Good luck to the Empress Chen."
"My two lords, thank you for coming with me to see Concubine Cui."
The three of them walked inside, and Wu Yuanpan, the imperial physician in charge of the treatment, introduced the situation to Sheng Xiyan.
Inside the hall, on the bed, Cui Nianmi was unconscious, her face and neck were severely red and swollen, and her condition was horrific.
The palace maid brought a soft chair, and Sheng Xiyan sat down and pulled out her wrist to feel her pulse.
"Your Majesty, I have already removed the stinger from Miss Cui's wound and scraped the stinger from her skin. However, due to the numerous wounds, it will take at least six months to remove the venom from her body."
Sheng Xiyan checked the wound and applied some medicine to reduce swelling and detoxify it, but it didn't work well.
"When I was in Jiangnan, I saw a caterpillar stung by a wasp. Its body was swollen, but after it rolled on the green moss, the swelling actually subsided."
Judge Wu bowed and said, "Perhaps we can try this method."
Sheng Xiyan ordered people to pick green moss from a dark place in the palace and knead it into a paste. She then asked the imperial physician to squeeze out the pus from the wound on Cui Nianmi's face and apply the moss paste.
