”Imperial Physician Liang, don't break your teeth.” At this moment, a cold voice sounded from behind him.
Imperial Physician Liang was startled and abruptly turned around. When he saw Xiao He, his face paled. ”Young, Young Marquis.”
”Take it out.” Xiao He extended his hand towards Duan Ling Tian with an icy cold expression and eyes that were like knives.
”…” Imperial Physician Liang cried out in his heart, ”What bad luck! How could I have met such a person?!” With trembling hands, he could only hand over the gold bestowed by Princess Thirteen with both hands.
”Who wants your gold? ”Hand over Yue'er's golden hairpin!” Xiao He said coldly, and his gaze was already extremely displeased.
Imperial Physician Liang was startled when he suddenly recalled that the emperor had once promised Princess Eleven to this young duke. This was going to be troublesome!
He quickly took out a golden hairpin from his chest and handed it over to Xiao He. ”Young Marquis, please spare my life. This lowly subordinate is only a servant. This lowly subordinate has no choice but to do whatever the higher ups say.”
Xiao He glanced at him coldly before snatching the golden hairpin from Princess Eleven and placing it in his hand.
”Young duke, this lowly official knows that he was wrong, this lowly official knows that he was wrong!” Imperial Physician Liang was so scared that cold sweat poured down his face. He raised his hands to wipe the sweat from his forehead.
”Imperial Physician Liang.” Xiao He shouted.
”Yes, young duke …” Imperial Physician Liang raised his head.
”Bam!” Before he even saw it clearly, Xiao He had already punched out fiercely at his eyes —
”Ugh …” Imperial Physician Liang retreated several steps before falling to the ground. He felt as if he'd suffered a heavy blow, his eyes almost popping out of their sockets. His head buzzed as he fell to the ground, unable to get up for a long time.
”Didn't you say that Princess Eleven hurt you and stole the medicinal ingredients? This punch, this marquis has beaten up for Yue Er! ” Xiao He turned around and walked away.
”Ah, good, it hurts. I-Am I blind?” Imperial Physician Liang lay on the ground, one hand extended to touch the blood.
Back at Changchun Palace.
When Princess Eleven stepped into the palace, she heard the sound of coughing. She rushed to the side of the bed in the sleeping quarters, picked up a glass of water and helped the empress sit up against the bed.
”Muhou, I've already gone to the Imperial Hospital to get some medicine. When I fry it, you can drink it and you'll be fine.”
The empress looked at her listlessly for a moment, then said, ”You spent a lot of effort to get the medicine, right?”
When Princess Eleven heard this, she slightly lowered her head, but immediately shook it and said, ”No, they weren't willing to give it in the beginning. After I said a few threatening words, they immediately gave it to me.
The Empress sighed and shook her head.
”Mother, you stay here first. I'm going to fry some medicine.” After the empress finished drinking the water, she helped the empress lie down before running out to prepare the medicine.
She first squatted on the ground and scooped up some water to rinse the medicine jar. As she did so, she raised her hand to wipe her tears away. When she washed the medicine jar and prepared to put some water in it, she found that there was no water left in the jar.
She put down the medicine jar, picked up a wooden bucket, and prepared to go get water. She awkwardly carried the bucket to the well, hung it on the rope, and threw the bucket into the well.
