Chapter 22 Suppressing the Threat
Xiaoqi didn't even dare to crack the melon seeds in his mouth.
Aunt Xu looked frightened and hesitated, "Your Highness, but..." She looked at Doctor Xu, who was pressing the Empress Dowager's acupoints.
"cough!"
Suddenly, the Queen Mother's cough made everyone's hearts hang in the air.
Immediately afterwards, Doctor Xu hurried over with a cup to catch the phlegm that the empress dowager coughed up violently.
After spitting out the phlegm, the empress dowager gradually returned to her normal composure.
Now, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
The only one with a grim expression was Chu Yinyin.
She looked at the scene in confusion, as if it shouldn't be like this.
The big talk she had just let out also made her feel a burning pain on her cheeks.
The Empress Dowager should have cured herself, right?
Lin Zhaoyue saw that all the subtitles floating in the air turned into question marks.
【???】
【Isn’t this a plot prepared for the heroine? 】
[What's going on? The heroine didn't even get a chance to make a move? ? ]
[Where did this imperial physician come from? ]
[Hahahaha why does it feel like the heroine is so angry...]
"What happened to me just now?" The Queen Mother stood up with the help of everyone.
Nanny Chen glanced at Chu Yinyin coldly, and only stopped saying a few unpleasant words for Lin Ye's sake, and then immediately stepped forward to serve the empress dowager.
"Empress Dowager, are you okay? You suddenly fainted and were convulsing all over. Fortunately, Doctor Xu arrived in time!"
Doctor Xu bowed and said, "Your Majesty, you suddenly fainted on your way here. I suspect there was something new in the garden that you were allergic to, which caused this sudden onset of illness. Although you've recovered now, please move on and do not linger here."
When the empress dowager heard this, she dared not stay there any longer and immediately left with the support of Nanny Chen.
Doctor Xu bent his body, glanced in the direction of Lin Zhaoyue, nodded slightly at her, and then followed the empress dowager and left.
Lin Zhaoyue curled her lips.
Confused and angry at the subtitles in front of him, he turned around and left with Xiao Qi.
Lin Ye, who was still standing there, frowned slightly.
But he couldn't help but ask, "Yinyin, didn't you say that you were the only one who could cure the Queen Mother's illness just now?"
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Chu Yinyin's face, and she whispered, "I didn't expect this... But, it shouldn't be like this..."
When she was still in the backyard of her home, the teacher who taught her those things once said that everything she taught her would come in handy.
Moreover, she is the only one in this world who can do it.
Sure enough, she gained a lot of favor in the capital city thanks to the little gadgets her teacher taught her to make.
She had finally gotten rid of her past unpopularity and became the one who was praised and admired, the one that all the wealthy daughters in the capital wanted to befriend...
The Queen Mother's sudden illness today was exactly the same as what the teacher had told her before.
Only the method her teacher taught her can cure it.
And she knew that if she saved the Queen Mother, she would be her savior.
She can reach the sky in one step.
Even Princess Zhaohua Lin Zhaoyue couldn't do anything to her, so she didn't have to be afraid of her anymore.
But why... was the imperial physician there to get there first?
She felt unwilling and a little angry that she had nowhere to vent.
Seeing Chu Yinyin's expression, Lin Ye said nothing more. "With your ability, I believe you wouldn't lie. Perhaps it's because Doctor Xu's medical skills are too superb."
He had personally witnessed some of Chu Yinyin's abilities, which he had never seen before.
It's just that he had just said such confident words, but the result was not as he expected, so he felt a little embarrassed.
Chu Yinyin said softly, "Aye, you are so nice..."
The other side.
"Eldest sister, do you think Chu Yinyin can really cure the Queen Mother's illness just now?" Xiao Qi asked curiously as he followed Lin Zhaoyue.
Lin Zhaoyue just smiled faintly, "Maybe."
Chu Yinyin could indeed cure it, but she had arranged in advance for Doctor Xu to cure the empress dowager first.
Ever since she learned that Chu Yinyin would rise to prominence and become the empress dowager's savior and a popular figure around her because of saving her life, she contacted Doctor Xu.
The Queen Mother herself is not prone to sudden serious illness, so some minor illnesses and pains are not serious.
Through the information revealed in the subtitles, she learned what the empress dowager looked like when she suddenly fell ill, as well as Chu Yinyin's treatment methods. Although it was not comprehensive, she still told it to Doctor Xu.
Doctor Xu's family had been practicing medicine for generations, and he was the most skilled doctor in the Imperial Hospital. He could tell what the disease was at a glance.
She had also read quite a few medical books, and her guess coincided with that of Doctor Xu.
The Queen Mother suffered from asthma caused by sudden allergies.
There is a prerequisite for Chu Yinyin to rush forward to save people, and that is that there is no one else available.
That's why the people around the Queen Mother let Chu Yinyin try it.
She didn't believe that Chu Yinyin was the only one who could cure the empress dowager's illness.
According to her observation, the plot only makes this happen and creates the conditions that facilitate it.
But it doesn't force anyone to do anything.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to change the direction and development of the plot.
So, she asked Doctor Xu to wait for her in the Imperial Garden early in the morning.
Whenever the Empress Dowager fell ill, Doctor Xu would rush over to treat her.
The Queen Mother was already displeased with her.
If Chu Yinyin becomes a big celebrity around her, won’t she be able to sleep well?
It is better to nip any threat in the bud.
What's more, she also suspected that Chu Yinyin was related to the incident that killed her father in the original plot.
Subtitles didn't know about the things she arranged.
Although they can peek into their lives, everywhere.
But when she was resting on the bed, taking a bath, or going to the toilet, no matter what she did, no one would see her.
Even if she just said it and didn't take any action.
Also, as long as the protagonists are not there, as long as you intentionally conceal it, such as not wanting them to see or hear it, they will not know about it.
But most of the time she didn't need to hide anything because they were just bystanders and wouldn't tip off anyone.
Why……
If she hadn't been worried about uncontrollable and unknown developments.
It would also be a good thing to let Xiao Tingye kill Chu Yinyin.
"Looking at her like that, I really thought she was the only one who could cure the Queen Mother's illness." Xiao Qi began to imitate Chu Yinyin, raising his voice, "I am the only one who can cure the Queen Mother's illness, don't regret it~"
Lin Zhaoyue: “…”
Mu Ying beside her couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Not to mention that the Seventh Princess learned it quite well.
She touched Xiao Qi's head and asked, "Xiao Qi, do you want to move out of the palace?"
Xiao Qi's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he nodded frantically, "I want to!"
She had wanted to move out a long time ago, but she was not the eldest sister and did not have the ability to move out. Leaving the palace and setting up her own home was a privilege only her eldest sister had.
The other princesses were just like her, staying in the palace until they either got married or moved out when they reached a certain age.
Lin Zhaoyue smiled, "Next time I'll talk to my father and I'll buy you a yard next to the Princess's Mansion and let you live there. Then you can open a bookstore outside the palace and do what you like."
When Xiaoqi heard this, she was so excited that she almost cried.
"Really? Big sis! Then it's a deal, Xiao Qi will live next door to you! When the time comes, I... I'll give you some more money! I'll give you whatever you want!"
Lin Zhaoyue's eyes also showed a hint of tenderness: "It's agreed."
Xiao Qi threw herself into Lin Zhaoyue's arms, hugged her waist and twisted around, acting coquettishly, "Wuwuwuwu... Big sister is so good... I want to be with Big Sister forever..."
【Baby Xiaoqi makes me cry】
[I remember that Xiao Qi will be sent to marry a foreign prince soon...]
[It's obviously because of the heroine. If it weren't for the heroine, Xiao Qi wouldn't have been implicated in the marriage.]
[Ah... Xiaoqi is so pitiful...]
[Yeah, it's because Xiao Qi is on the side of the vicious female supporting character, so no one has a good ending...]
[It's what she deserves, alright? How can someone who follows a vicious female supporting character be a good person?]
Lin Zhaoyue held Xiaoqi and gently touched her head, but her eyes looking forward and the curve of her lips were filled with a terrifying chill.
