Empress Wang choked.
If it were any other girl, after being left hanging for half a day and hearing what she said, she would have been grateful to her long ago. Why did Yun Chuwei react so differently?
Seeing Empress Wang's unpleasant expression, Yun Chuwei smiled and said, "It was I who overstepped my bounds. This is a matter between His Majesty and Your Majesty, and I shouldn't have asked. If Your Majesty has nothing else to say, I will take my leave!"
Empress Wang's face turned pale. She was about to say something when she saw Yun Chuwei spit out a mouthful of blood.
Yun Chu smiled slightly; this time, spitting out blood was just the right timing.
Empress Wang's face, however, was as dark as ink.
She wanted to give Yun Chuwei a hard time, and if possible, she even wanted to kill Yun Chuwei.
But Yun Chuwei cannot die in her palace.
"Quickly summon the imperial physician to examine her. If she is fine, send her out of the palace!" Empress Wang said with a gloomy face.
The palace maid readily agreed.
-
After returning from the palace, Yun Chuwei lay down and fell asleep.
She didn't go out the next day either.
She needs to recover her health as soon as possible in order to cope with what comes next.
She didn't expect that He Ning would come to her courtyard so early in the morning and insist on having breakfast with her.
"I couldn't have breakfast with you yesterday because of what the Empress did. Let's have breakfast together today! I didn't know what you liked to eat, so I prepared a variety of things. See if you like anything?"
He Ning's maids lined up in a row, and Yun Chuwei could see clearly that the maids were carrying all kinds of breakfast dishes.
Yun Chuwei's lips twitched slightly, then she pointed to a few that looked pleasing to the eye.
He Ning was overjoyed and placed all the food that Yun Chuwei had chosen in front of her, urging her to eat.
Yun Chuwei could only pick up her chopsticks and start eating.
Just after we finished eating, Guiyan brought out the medicine.
He Ning immediately took the medicine and smiled at Yun Chu, saying, "Weiwei, it's time to take your medicine!"
Yun Chuwei: ...
What she really wanted to say was that she was fine and didn't need to take any more medicine.
But she has said this many times.
If He Ning trusted her, there would have been no need to invite the imperial physician on the first day.
He Ning clearly didn't believe her.
She thought for a moment and then said indirectly, "Mother, you can leave the medicine there for now, I'll take it myself later!"
He Ning smiled lovingly and indulgently: "Mother knows that you are afraid of bitterness and do not want to drink medicine, right? Don't worry! Mother has prepared candied fruit for you."
After He Ning finished speaking, he magically produced a small dish of candied fruit.
She placed the candied fruit in front of Yun Chuwei and said very seriously, "This candied fruit is very sweet. Just one piece will be enough to suppress the bitterness of the medicine. Trust your mother!"
After she finished speaking, she looked at Yun Chuwei intently.
Yun Chuwei felt a little uncomfortable under those beautiful, watery eyes, so she could only nod and say earnestly, "I believe you!"
“Since you trust your mother, then take your medicine!” He Ning said, scooping up the medicine with a spoon and holding it to Yun Chuwei’s lips, looking at her expectantly.
Yun Chuwei's brow twitched slightly: "I just finished eating, can I take my medicine in a little while?"
Upon hearing this, He Ning put on a pitiful expression: "Weiwei, do you not like your mother? It's all my fault for not being there for you! When you were little, I never gave you your medicine. I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry..."
Yun Chuwei looked at He Ning, who seemed to be on the verge of tears, and felt utterly helpless.
Although she knew that she was probably just putting on an act, she still felt a little soft-hearted seeing the beauty shed tears.
Yun Chu opened her mouth slightly and drank the medicine.
He Ning was very happy to see this.
So she fed Yun Chuwei two more spoonfuls of medicine, and then put a candied fruit to Yun Chuwei's lips.
Yun Chuwei didn't know that medicine needed to be fed spoonful by spoonful, nor did she know that she needed to eat candied fruit intermittently while taking medicine.
But she didn't refuse and ate it all.
Next, He Ning fed the medicine in a very regular manner, always three spoonfuls of medicine followed by a piece of candied fruit.
After finishing the small dish of candied fruit, the medicine was also finished.
He Ning was overjoyed: "Weiwei, you're amazing! You actually finished all that bitter medicine. That's really great!"
Yun Chuwei: ...
