Chapter 258 She is just a dot of black in the night
"My Lady, Sister Xiyue is back!"
"Xiyue is back?" Jin Weige was originally sitting on the couch. Upon hearing this, she stood up instantly, flicked her skirt, and walked quickly towards the door.
I saw several eunuchs carrying bamboo mats and walking slowly towards me.
Xiyue lay on it, and after just a short period of time, she became so thin that she was no longer human, with only skin and bones left.
The once lively face is now dead and lifeless.
There was a dark area under his eyes, and his lips were pale and cracked. He looked like a dying man.
"Xiyue, you're finally back!" Jin Weige took a few steps forward and personally checked her injuries, his eyes full of heartache, "You've suffered."
"My queen, I'm fine." Xiyue's breath was so weak that it was almost inaudible.
The palace maid at the side hurriedly instructed the eunuch to carefully carry Xiyue into the house and place her on the bed.
Xiyue wanted to force a smile, but the pain all over her body made it impossible for her to do so.
She is a daughter of the Jin family. Her parents and grandparents all work for the Jin family.
She has been responsible for taking care of Jin Weige since she was a child. Although she is a servant and has to take care of some affairs, she has actually never suffered any hardship.
That beating really took half her life.
"It's good that you're okay, it's good that you're okay!" Jin Weige's eyes were red, and she held Xiyue's hand, as if to cheer herself up, "Xiyue, don't worry, I will definitely find the best doctor to heal your injury, and I will definitely make you as lively as before."
Hearing this, Xiyue could no longer suppress the grievance in her heart, and tears welled up in her eyes. Lines of tears slid down her cheeks and soaked the pillow.
"My queen, please don't waste your energy. I...I am already useless!" Xiyue choked with sobs. "That day, Concubine Zhao ordered people to beat me to death, but she didn't let me die. Later, they put something in the medicine they applied to me. My wounds will never heal completely, but will only continue to rot. Every time they change the medicine, they have to cut off a piece of rotten flesh and then apply the medicine again. I...I will never be healed in this life!"
"What?" Jin Weige's eyes widened with anger, and anger instantly surged in her heart, "How dare they be so cruel! No, I will never forgive them, I must help you get justice! No matter what medicine they gave me, I will turn the Imperial Hospital upside down and make the imperial physician find the antidote."
Xiyue cried and laughed, "My Lady, I am satisfied with what you said. It is my blessing to serve you all these years. If there is an afterlife, I want to serve you for the rest of my life."
"What nonsense are you talking about? You will definitely get better, and you can accompany me every day like before." Jin Weige held Xiyue's hand tightly, trying hard to hold back the tears.
She has already lost Jiayue, so she can’t lose Xiyue too.
Xiyue slowly closed her eyes, but she knew in her heart that this was just the Queen's consolation and that day would never come again.
Jin Weige acted promptly and immediately sent someone to invite the female doctor and the imperial physician.
The female doctor came in a hurry, and after carefully checking Xiyue's injuries, she shook her head helplessly, "Madam Jin Fei, Miss Xiyue's injuries are too serious, and her bones have been broken. Even if the wounds are barely healed, she will not be able to stand up and walk again."
"Nonsense!" Jin Weige couldn't stand such words, "How can I not be able to stand up? Send the imperial physician over!"
The imperial physician arrived shortly afterwards and, after a diagnosis, came to the same conclusion.
As for what Concubine Zhao put in the medicine that caused the wound to rot, they couldn't tell for the time being. They could only wait until the wound was truly rotten and then cut off the rotten flesh to check, before they could be sure.
Now I can only prescribe some common trauma medicines to provide temporary relief.
Xiyue’s face was ashen and her eyes were empty.
Although she had expected this might be the result, she couldn't help but feel a glimmer of hope when she saw the imperial physician shaking his head.
And now, this last hope has been completely shattered.
She knew that she had really become a useless person.
"Xiyue, don't lose heart." Jin Weige gritted her teeth, "Princess Wen's face was so badly damaged before, but it was able to recover in the end. I will also help you find a magic medicine."
She did what she said and immediately sent someone to invite Concubine Wen to inquire about the source of the magic medicine.
He also sent a letter to Jin Zhi outside the palace, asking him to help find a miracle doctor who could make a miracle medicine and prescribe the right medicine.
"Xiyue, I have already sent someone to find the magic medicine, just hold on a little longer." Jin Weige looked at Xiyue with heartache and ordered the palace maids to take care of her as they would their master.
"Thank you, my lady."
Jin Weige went back to rest, leaving a maid to wait on her. "Sister Xiyue, you should also go to bed early."
But Xiyue couldn't sleep at all. The pain from her wounds was like bone-eating maggots that kept gnawing at her body and made it impossible for her to close her eyes.
At this time, there were faint discussions coming from outside.
"Humph, Xiyue has become a useless person, but the queen is still so kind to her."
"She was brought here as a dowry. We entered the Yaoguang Palace later, so how can we compare with her? But when she dies, Her Majesty will definitely choose one of us to be the head maid to serve her."
"I'm afraid Xiyue won't die. Your Majesty will not only find a magic medicine for her, but also avenge her. Today I heard Your Majesty say that she would find a way to make Concubine Zhao look bad..."
"In my opinion, the Queen is indeed powerful, but she is no match for Concubine Zhao in terms of scheming. Has the Queen ever gotten away with anything in their confrontation? If the Queen suffers again because of Xiyue, then she is the culprit!"
Xiyue couldn't stop crying.
Yes, her existence will only make the Queen hate Concubine Zhao even more.
She knew the Queen's temper very well. She would take revenge on the spot and would never wait until the next day.
Concubine Zhao was cruel and ruthless, and extremely cunning. Every time the Empress confronted her, she would end up in trouble.
I can't be a burden...
Xiyue looked at the cold moon outside the window.
In the past, she felt that even if she was not the moon, she was still the starlight that reflected the surroundings.
Now it seems that she overestimated herself.
She was just a dot of darkness in the night, invisible to anyone.
"My Lady, if there is an afterlife, I will accompany you till old age. Goodbye, My Lady..."
