No matter how eager he was to see Junior Sister, he still had to attend the morning court first, and then request to see His Majesty...

How could His Majesty not know what Li Yuyan was thinking? Although he wanted to open his mouth to scold him, he thought of the Queen Mother's current health and did not have the leisure to tease him. He just waved his hand and said, "The Queen Mother is ill, so I will keep your little sister in the palace for a few days.

Don't worry about going to Huaixi. I promise that I will not miss even a hair of hers, and when you come back, I will return her to you in good condition."

His Majesty had said so, so Li Yuyan naturally could not take Bingyan away by force. He had to beg His Majesty to let him meet with Junior Sister before leaving for Huaixi.

Such a request was simple, and His Majesty nodded readily in agreement.

Wei Bingyan was carefully preparing medicine for the Empress Dowager. In order to fully guarantee that nothing went wrong, she prepared the medicine for the Empress Dowager herself, and Aunt Yin was just running errands for her.

Originally, Aunt Yin was not allowed to stay in the palace, but when Wei Bingyan talked about acupuncture and asked her to help wholeheartedly, His Majesty allowed Aunt Yin to stay.

The Empress Dowager had woken up last night. Just as Wei Bingyan had expected, due to the lack of timely and careful treatment, although she woke up, her hands and feet were numb and stiff. She couldn't even speak clearly, and she seemed a little groggy.

"Miss, can the Empress Dowager's illness be completely cured?" Aunt Yin looked around and saw that the little palace maids were some distance away from them, so she lowered her voice and asked.

Wei Bingyan's beautiful eyebrows wrinkled slightly, and she curled her lips slowly, "I don't know either."

She could control the old man's hyperactivity, but she couldn't promise a complete cure. It would be good enough if she could let the Empress Dowager's condition continue to gradually worsen.

Aunt Yin was still thinking about asking when she could leave the palace, but when she saw Ruri coming towards the Queen Mother, she closed her mouth and stopped talking.

"Miss Wei, is the medicine ready?" Ruri walked over with small steps and asked Wei Bingyan in a gentle voice.

"It's okay." Wei Bingyan looked up at her and smiled slightly. The palace maids in Fulu Palace were very kind to Wei Bingyan, probably because she was very popular with His Majesty.

Wei Bingyan was about to filter the medicinal residue into a bowl, handed it to Liuli, and they quickly walked into the bedroom together.

The Queen Mother came to pay respectful greetings to the Empress Dowager early in the morning, and was now sitting on the edge of the bed talking to the Empress Dowager. Although the Empress Dowager spoke vaguely and could only say a few words, looking at the Queen Mother's worried expression, one could really feel that she really cared about the Empress Dowager.

Seeing Wei Bingyan come in, the Empress Dowager's smiling eyes flashed with cold stars. She took the medicine from Ruri's hand and carefully fed it into the Empress Dowager's mouthful by mouthful, wiping the medicine juice that seeped out of her lips with a towel.

Wei Bingyan stood quietly beside her, listening with lowered head, and was not moved at all by the Queen's filial behavior.

After the Empress Dowager took the medicine, Wei Bingyan wanted to effectively clear the acupuncture points on her hands and feet. The Empress stood up and humbly and kindly gave up her seat, looking at Wei Bingyan mercilessly.

"Empress Dowager, how are you feeling?" Wei Bingyan knew why the Empress disliked her. Was it just because the Crown Prince couldn't marry her, and Wei Zhong suddenly asked for permission to go to Baiyue? If she wasn't with the Empress Dowager, her expression would probably be even more unpleasant.

The Empress Dowager did not reply, but nodded to Wei Bingyan with a smile and a kind look in her eyes.

The Queen stood quietly by for a while, and when she saw that the Queen Mother didn't want to talk to her at all, she bowed and left the bedroom with her maid. Before leaving, she gave Wei Bingyan a cold look.

After massaging the acupoints on the Empress Dowager's hands and feet for half an hour, the Empress Dowager had fallen asleep. Wei Bingyan nodded to Ruri beside her and quietly left.

She just didn't expect that the Queen would be waiting for her in the main hall.

"Your Majesty, may you be well." Wei Bingyan's forehead jumped and she bowed to the Queen.

"I never thought that Miss Wei is not only popular, but also has outstanding medical skills. No wonder so many young heroes in the capital are bewitched by her. I really underestimated you." The Queen sat upright on a recliner, her mouth raised high in an elegant manner, a cold and contemptuous smile on her snow-white face.

Wei Bingyan hung her head, "You are too kind, Queen."

The Queen put her hand on the little maid's arm and stood up. She straightened her waist and walked to Wei Bingyan's side. She slowly stretched out her slender and slender fingers dyed with red nail polish and gently lifted Wei Bingyan's mouth. "You don't look like a disaster to the country and the people. How dare you put on such a high attitude?"

"I have an ordinary appearance and don't have the courage to climb up the social ladder." Wei Bingyan said neither arrogantly nor humbly.

"Don't you have the courage to climb up the social ladder? You are just too careless." The Queen laughed grimly and threw away her hand with force. Her long and sharp fingernails brushed across Wei Bingyan's mouth and jaw, leaving a red wound on her delicate skin.

Wei Bingyan felt pain, but she bit her lip and said nothing. There was a flash of coldness in her eyes, and then they immediately returned to being as calm as water.

“Aren’t you an excellent doctor? It’s just right that you come here and take my pulse. I’ve been feeling unwell lately. Please cure this difficult-to-cure heart disease for me.” The Queen sat back down, looked at Wei Bingyan coldly, and put her hands on the table.

This is the Empress Dowager's Fulu Palace... How dare the Empress Dowager be so arrogant and deal with her here? Wei Bingyan was shocked. Could it be that Empress Li was so stupid? Or did she think that the Empress Dowager's life was like that? Without the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager should be the most important in the harem. So, did she think that no one could deal with her?

Wei Bingyan tilted her neck to look at the Empress Dowager, knowing that no matter whether she was sick or not, she would definitely take this opportunity to deal with her. Really... If she went against the Empress Dowager, would the old man be able to protect her?

"Why don't you come over? Don't I have the qualifications to consult with a medical genius like you?" the Queen asked coldly.

"I don't have the courage!" Wei Bingyan said softly, thinking in her heart that if the Queen dared to ask her for acupuncture, she would definitely give her the needle to turn her into a pitiful mute.

Wei Bingyan slowly moved closer to the Queen. She could already see the cold star of ill intentions that was accumulating in the Queen. She sighed secretly and was about to reach out to feel her pulse when...

"Empress, Eunuch Lan, on behalf of His Majesty, invites Miss Wei to the Imperial Garden." A little maid from the Fulu Palace appeared immediately, bowed humbly and obediently, and spoke to the Empress.

The Queen's eyes turned cold, and she glanced at Wei Bingyan coldly, "Well, you should go to the Imperial Garden to see His Majesty first, and then come to me later to feel my pulse."

"Yes, your majesty." Wei Bingyan lowered her head to hide the joy in her eyes.

Wei Bingyan stepped out of Fulu Palace and saw Eunuch Lan waiting for her outside. He bowed politely and said, "Miss Wei, His Majesty asked me to lead the way for you."

"Thank you for your hard work, Eunuch Lan." Wei Bingyan bowed respectfully and replied with a smile.

Eunuch Lan raised his head and stared at Wei Bingyan's face for a while, then immediately lowered his head and led the way for Wei Bingyan.

Wei Bingyan had been to the Imperial Garden before. Although she was not very familiar with the imperial palace, she discovered that Eunuch Lan did not seem to bring her to the Imperial Garden.

"Eunuch Lan, where are we going?" Wei Bingyan asked curiously. She looked at the unfamiliar environment nearby and became wary.

"Miss Wei, please relax. I am here to bring you here on the orders of His Majesty." Eunuch Lan said with a smile, and then whispered, "Lord Li really wants to see you."

Wei Bingyan's eyes moved and a happy expression appeared on her face. Is it Li Yuyan?

Eunuch Lan brought Wei Bingyan directly to the outside of the small hall of the Yangxin Palace. "Miss Wei, I have brought you to this place now. Please go in by yourself. Master Li is waiting for you inside."

"Thank you for your hard work, Eunuch Lan." Wei Bingyan expressed her gratitude with a smile and walked heavily into the door.

As soon as she closed the door, Wei Bingyan felt like she had fallen into a large and warm embrace, and a familiar low, joyful laughter came to her ears.

Li Yuyan hugged Wei Bingyan from behind and smiled softly beside her ear, "Junior sister."

"How dare you do whatever you want here?" Wei Bingyan smiled slightly and patted his arms that were wrapped around her waist.

"I'm leaving the capital again tomorrow, and you're still so heartless as to hit me?" Li Yuyan let go of her hand, turned her over, and looked at her face with a smile.

When his eyes fell on the very obvious wound on her mouth, the pretty boy's face suddenly turned cold, as if he was covered with a layer of thousand-year-old ice, and his voice revealed a chill, "Who? Who hurt you?"

"Where are you going tomorrow?" Wei Bingyan was only concerned about his destination. He had just returned for a short time, so why was he leaving the capital again?

"Bingyan, tell me, who hurt you?" Li Yuyan held her face gently. Although there was a bright smile on his lips, it made people feel terrified.

It seemed that even if she wanted to hide it, he would definitely ask her directly to get the result. Wei Bingyan sighed slightly, "The Queen just went to visit the Empress Dowager."

A cold light flashed in Li Yuyan's eyes, "Empress?"

"Don't worry, I will handle it carefully and will not give her the chance to hurt me. I just didn't think of it today." She really didn't expect that the Queen would dare to embarrass her in Fulu Palace so blatantly. She simply didn't take the Empress Dowager seriously.

"I am going to Huaixi tomorrow. There is a plague there. When I come back this time, His Majesty will grant us marriage." Li Yuyan silently took note of the Queen's account in his heart. His clear and sharp eyes gradually softened and he looked at Wei Bingyan with a smile.
