Reborn as a Merchant Girl, the General's Beloved

The lives of the people in the cold palace were worthless, and they were heavily guarded early on. Anyone who was sick in the palace was thrown in, and a bucket of medicine was thrown in every now and then, and life and death were left to fate. Her little Fourteenth was the one she exchanged her life for, and he was the most caring and sensible child. She would never let him disappear so quietly, even if they had to die, they would die together!

Yuan Ruolan put down one of the child's hands in confusion, and pulled up the other one, frowning and feeling the pulse. After a long time, she raised her head and looked at Concubine Jin, her eyes full of embarrassment.

Concubine Jin felt dizzy, her face turned pale, and two lines of hot tears rolled down her cheeks again. She closed her eyes silently and said, "It's okay, Madam, just say what you want to say."

"Your Highness, His Highness is not infected with the plague." Yuan Ruolan looked at her firmly, "He is poisoned."

Concubine Jin suddenly opened her eyes, with tears still on her face, but she looked angry as if she had just woken up from a dream. Then she grabbed Yuan Ruolan's hand tightly, wanting to say something, but couldn't utter a word.

The maid's eyes widened, as if she was recalling something. She was so anxious that she kept jumping up and down, and said incoherently: "But, but, my lady, your highness's food, clothing and daily life are all taken care of by me personally, and it is no different from usual. How, how is this possible?"

Concubine Jin thought that now that she had left the palace, even if someone really wanted to investigate her thoroughly, she would not have the chance. She was so angry that she fell to the ground.

Yuan Ruolan and the maid helped her up and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. I have a detoxifying pill here. Just let Your Highness take it and then take good care of it."

After saying that, Yuan Ruolan took out the pills from the box, took a teacup, added warm water, slowly dissolved it, and handed it to Concubine Jin.

Concubine Jin's mind was already full of thoughts. From the moment she took out the pill, she had been staring at Yuan Ruolan. Yuan Ruolan did not have so many thoughts and was only concentrating on handling the pill. Even at this moment, she did not know what the other party was thinking and just handed the medicine over with a little ease.

Concubine Jin took a deep breath, and the maid beside her shuddered. After years of living in the palace, the master and servant had become accustomed to being careful and cautious, but now such a seemingly focused female doctor, such a bowl of seemingly ordinary medicine was placed in front of her, whether to take it or not, was the most difficult test for her.

She looked at the bowl of medicine and hesitated to take it. She turned back to look at her son who was lying on the bed covered with three mattresses.

Yuan Ruolan didn't notice Concubine Jin's concerns at all. She just thought that they didn't know how to feed the medicine to the child. Without waiting for her to say anything, she directly held the child's head, gently pried open his mouth, poured the medicine into it, and then gently lifted the child's chin, and the child swallowed the medicine with a gulp.

The action was so fast that Concubine Jin and her maid didn't have time to blink. When Concubine Jin rushed over, her face flushed and she stroked her son with trembling hands, and she didn't utter a word for a long time.

The maid looked at her hesitantly, only to see Yuan Ruolan hand the cup to her and said seriously, "Pass me the kettle."

The maid didn't know what she was going to do, so she handed the kettle over. Yuan Ruolan poured some more water and gently shook the remaining medicine at the bottom of the bowl. Just as she was about to feed the child, Concubine Jin turned around awkwardly and panted, "Thank you, madam. I'll do it myself in a while."

The maid understood and said hurriedly, "Madam, follow me and take a rest in the guest room."
