Dongmei was frightened by the icy rebuke and trembled, "Your Highness, that's not what I meant. I meant..."
Xiao Jinyan interrupted her coldly, "You made the same mistake twice. What's the point of keeping a servant like you who has no memory?"
Dongmei was trembling with fear.
Xiao Jinyan ordered in a cold voice: "Come here, drag Dongmei to the Ministry of Punishment, and send the imperial physician to treat Chang Liangdi."
Dongmei was so scared that she crawled on the ground and begged for mercy: "Your Highness, spare my life!"
Eunuch Liu ordered two eunuchs to drag Dongmei to the Ministry of Punishment, and then called the imperial physician to go to Xinlan Palace together.
At this time in Xinlan Palace, Chang Liangdi was looking at her ankle. She had just sprained it and it was now very swollen.
How could she, who had been spoiled since childhood, bear such heart-wrenching pain?
She also tried her best for the position of Crown Princess.
At this time, Eunuch Liu came in with the imperial physician.
When Chang Liangdi saw Eunuch Liu come in, a glimmer of hope ignited in her heart that His Highness still cared about her very much.
Eunuch Liu smiled faintly and said, "Dear Chang Liangdi, look, we have brought the imperial physician to see you."
Chang Liang Di didn't see His Highness, so she looked at Eunuch Liu in confusion, "Where is His Highness?"
"Replying to Chang Liangdi, His Highness is busy with official duties and has no time to come here right now. He specifically ordered us to bring the imperial physician here to avoid delaying the treatment."
After Liu Gonggong finished speaking, he turned around and ordered the imperial physician: "Imperial physician, please take a look at Chang Liangdi. If her foot is broken, we can't afford it."
The imperial physician responded, hurriedly put down the medicine box, and squatted down to check Chang Liangdi's foot injury.
Eunuch Liu came over to take a look. The ankle was swollen and purple. He exclaimed in surprise: "This injury is quite serious. I heard that applying some acupuncture wine and massage will heal faster."
The imperial physician nodded in agreement, "Eunuch Liu is right. If you apply massage with wine to a sprained foot, the swelling will go away the next day."
"Then make arrangements for Chang Liangdi as soon as possible. Only when the swelling goes down can the foot get better and His Highness can rest assured." Eunuch Liu emphasized the last sentence.
"I will arrange it for Chang Liangdi right away." The imperial physician was afraid of being late, so he immediately opened the medicine box, took out the traumatic wine, unscrewed the bottle cap and poured it into his palm, preparing to give her a massage.
Chang Liangdi knew how painful it was to massage with herbal wine. She was so scared that she pulled her foot back and said, "No, I don't need a massage."
Eunuch Liu smiled and advised, "Dear Lady Chang, this is the best way. Otherwise, your foot injury will never heal and His Highness will not be able to rest in peace, don't you think?"
"But..." Chang Liangdi looked at Lao Gao's swollen feet and regretted making it so serious.
Eunuch Liu urged, "Imperial Physician, hurry up. The sooner you treat her, the sooner she will get better. This way, Chang Liangdi will get better quickly, and His Highness can rest assured."
The imperial physician took out a piece of transparent cloth and placed it on Chang Liangdi's feet before starting to massage her.
There were constant screams in Xinlan Palace.
After the massage, Chang Liangdi almost fainted. Her forehead was covered with sweat, and even her body was covered with sweat, making her feel extremely uncomfortable.
She called out softly, "Dongmei, prepare some hot water quickly."
Eunuch Liu kindly reminded, "Dear Concubine Chang, Dongmei was incompetent, and His Highness punished her by sending her to the Ministry of Punishment."
"What?" Chang Liangdi sat up suddenly after she had just laid down. "What did Dongmei do? Did she make His Highness unhappy?"
"In reply to Chang Liangdi, Chang Liangdi had a sore foot, and Dongmei did not notify the imperial physician immediately, which delayed the treatment. Chang Liangdi made a serious mistake and did not change despite repeated admonitions. Your Highness punished Dongmei for Chang Liangdi's safety." Eunuch Liu said slowly.
Chang Liangdi was speechless for a moment and her face looked a little ugly. Just because of this incident, His Highness punished Dongmei?
"Chang Liangdi, I'm going back to report."
Eunuch Liu smiled and left, followed closely by the imperial physician.
In the afternoon, Xiao Jinyan stepped into the Xinlan Palace.
When Chang Liangdi saw the prince coming, she stood up to salute but was stopped by Xiao Jinyan.
"Thank you, Your Highness." Chang Liangdi thought of Dongmei still in the Ministry of Punishment, and she pleaded softly: "Your Highness, Dongmei is my maid who came with my dowry. She was worried about me, so she rashly went to find Your Highness. Your Highness, for her sake..."
Xiao Jinyan interrupted her unfinished words with a cold voice, "One mistake can be forgiven, but if you make the same mistake a second time, it will only bring disaster if you keep such a reckless maid who doesn't care about the safety of her master."
Chang Liangdi continued to plead unwillingly, "Your Highness, I will teach Dongmei well and will not make the same mistake again..."
"I have some urgent matters to attend to, so you should take a good rest."
After Xiao Jinyan finished speaking, he stood up and strode out of Xinlan Palace.
Chang Liangdi tightly grasped the handkerchief in her hand and watched the prince's back as he left.
Cai He couldn't help but stepped forward and advised: "My lady, His Highness has finally come here. If you mention Dongmei at this time, His Highness will definitely be unhappy."
"Dongmei is my personal maid. We grew up together. How could I not save her?"
Dongmei is Chang Liangdi's most trusted confidant, so no matter what, she must rescue Dongmei.
* Hearing that Shen Fengyi had returned, Tao Chenghui brought some snacks from outside the palace to visit Xiyun Pavilion.
This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~
I met Xu Liangyuan and Xu Chenghui on the way, and they went to Xiyun Pavilion together.
Shen Chuwei had just woken up from a nap when she saw Tao Chenghui and the others coming to visit. She immediately noticed the pastries in Ding Xiang's hand. She had never seen them before and she knew at first glance that they were delicious.
Tao Chenghui saw Shen Chuwei lying on the bed, her face not as rosy as before, and asked worriedly: "What happened to Sister Shen?"
Shen Chuwei said calmly: "I got a few injuries."
Tao Chenghui nodded, "No wonder my sister looks unhappy."
"My sister followed the prince to the autumn hunting competition quietly this time. My sisters are so envious of her." Xu Chenghui said in a very sour tone.
Shen Chuwei's eyes were fixed on the pastries in Dingxiang's hand behind Tao Chenghui, and she ignored Xu Chenghui's sour words.
She greeted, "Sister Tao, please sit down."
What I was thinking was, should I give her the pastry after we sit down?
Tao Chenghui nodded and sat down on the chair in front of the bed.
Being ignored, Xu Chenghui rolled his eyes at Shen Chuwei with some dissatisfaction, saying, "If you weren't favored, I wouldn't bother to curry favor with you."
Xu Liangyuan glanced at the ignored Xu Chenghui. She had been with Shen Chuwei several times and had a rough understanding of Shen Chuwei's personality.
She didn't wait for Shen Chuwei to speak, she just sat down with her skirt lifted.
The shrill voice of Eunuch Liu came from outside the door: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived."
When Xu Chenghui heard that the prince was coming, he happily took out a mirror to check his appearance, making sure that he appeared in the most beautiful state in front of the prince.
Xu Liangyuan and Tao Chenghui also hurriedly stood up and tidied their clothes to welcome His Highness.
Only Shen Chuwei stared at the pastry in Dingxiang's hand, wondering when he could put it into her mouth.
Xiao Jinyan, wearing a dark satin robe with gold weave, strode in, not expecting to see a room full of women.
He frowned. What were they doing here? …
The cover has been changed, my dears, don’t lose it.
My dears, there is still one chapter to go, but don’t stay up late waiting for the update.
Because the young master was afraid that he would fall asleep while writing.
I'm acting cute and asking for recommendation votes and monthly tickets. Data is very important to you!
