Huiyun nodded half-believingly.

It’s not that she didn’t believe the master, but the lady had a favorite sister in the palace after all.

Would Zhang Jinghong and Pei Xiao really let Pei Jin break her legs in order to cure her illness?

However, the next few words Chen Qingzhu said to her made her, who was usually calm, open her eyes in shock.

"Is it true, Master?"

Chen Qingzhu said with great certainty:

"Of course. You'll know tomorrow."

The facts were just as Chen Qingzhu expected.

Even though Zhang returned to the Bo Mansion unconscious, Pei Xiao was still a little worried for a while.

But his attitude changed immediately with the arrival of Zhang Jinghong.

Zhang Jinghong naturally came here late at night because he heard Nanny Li report about what happened in the Taoist temple.

Not only did he come, he also brought along the imperial physician who was part of the provincial examination invigilation team, and his face was filled with concern for Zhang.

"How is Fourth Sister?"

Zhang is the fourth among all the cousins ​​in the Zhang family.

"This is Doctor Liu from the Imperial Hospital. He is a very skilled doctor. Let him take a look at you!"

Zhang was so frightened that she almost jumped out of the bed.

She had just had it examined by Doctor Qian from the mansion.

Doctor Qian took her money, and learned that this lady had a younger sister who was a favorite concubine and was pregnant with the future prince. Naturally, he did his best to speak up for her, and described her condition as so severe that she had to rest for a few days.

If this Imperial Doctor Liu came to see him, his words would definitely be different from Doctor Qian's. It would be difficult to explain in front of Pei Xiao then.

What's more, Zhang was worried that her restoration of fertility would be discovered by the Zhang family's direct descendants, so she didn't dare let Doctor Liu take her pulse.

She had to choose the lesser of two evils, and she could only exaggerate her illness to make it sound less serious in order to escape.

"Brother, this is against the rules! I just had a heat stroke. I feel much better now after resting for a while!"

She immediately tried to look very energetic.

Seeing that she didn't want to have Doctor Liu feel her pulse, Zhang Jinghong didn't force her.

After all, his purpose was not to treat Zhang.

"I'm relieved that you're okay. Fourth sister has sacrificed too much for Jin'er's illness this time. If Jin'er doesn't treat fourth sister as his biological mother in the future, I, as your uncle, will beat him up!"

Zhang felt much better after hearing this.

Even though I was humiliated and suffered today, I received sincere gratitude from the current generation of the Zhang family in power, so it wasn't too bad.

She smiled and said:

"Brother, you are being too polite. I treat Jin'er as my own son, so I am willing to do anything for him."

Zhang Jinghong looked disapproving and said righteously:

"Fourth sister, your motherly love is admirable! But you can't ignore your own body..."

Zhang thought that he was moved by her and began to care about her sincerely. She was somewhat proud of herself for having won over Zhang Jinghong so easily.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Jinghong immediately said:

"Fourth sister, when you go to kneel again tomorrow, you must be fully prepared, otherwise, kneeling for five days will cause great damage to your body."

As he spoke, he gave some advice, such as bringing a thick cushion to reduce damage to the knees, and bringing water and anti-heatstroke medicine to avoid getting heatstroke easily.

It's windy at night, so bring warm clothes to avoid catching a cold.

A series of comprehensive suggestions were given, including bringing ginseng with you to hold in your mouth to increase your physical strength, and bringing a doctor and medicinal herbs with you so that you can get immediate medical treatment after kneeling for five days.

Zhang's face suddenly became as ugly as if she had been slapped in the face.

At this moment, she just felt like a complete fool for being so proud of Zhang Jinghong's words.

Zhang Jinghong, this old fox, praised and flattered her just to embarrass her and force her to kneel for five days to let Cihang Temple vent its anger.

As for what kind of damage her body would suffer after kneeling for five days, he didn't care at all!
