"How long will you stay this time?" The concubine leaned meekly on the bed, she didn't dare to tease her anymore, let alone move her hands and feet, for fear of going too far and driving away the people who had finally hoped to enter the palace.

Concubine Jia still had tears on her face, she took out the hand that was held by the concubine, covered the person on the bed with a quilt and said: "I will go back when my mother recovers from her illness."

The concubine lowered her head and smiled, and Princess Jia saw through her thoughts at a glance: "Don't think that I don't know what you are thinking. If you want to delay my treatment and stay in the palace for a long time, I advise you to die as soon as possible." Jia Every time the princess gets angry, she stops calling the concubine her mother, and she also knows that the other party doesn't care. "Didn't you say that the medicine I give you will be swallowed no matter how bitter it is? From now on, I will feed every sip of your medicine."

"Not only do you feed the medicine, but you also need to take care of your daily life." The concubine looked at Princess Jia with a happy face.

However, the concubine's happiness didn't last long, and the Song imperial doctor came to check her pulse early in the morning.

"Humble duty to concubine empress dowager, and concubine Jia." Song imperial physician knelt down and saluted, and concubine Jia ordered her mother to help the old man up.

"What's the matter with your mother's illness? Why can't you move suddenly?" Princess Jia asked worriedly.

The doctor of the Song Dynasty replied: "The empress's frailty is a disease caused by accumulated depression. After the death of the first emperor, the empress's longing for the empress became more and more serious. Although the frailty is not a serious problem, but the root of a person is injured, and evil spirits are very easy to invade. As for the sudden leg ailment of the empress, it is impossible to know if I do not use needles to test it in a lowly position."

Concubine Jia counted the time when the concubine's body was getting weaker and weaker, it was just after the Xiankang Palace left.She knew that the root cause of the illness was not the late Emperor, but herself.

"If the empress takes the medicine regularly and quantitatively, how long will it take to be cured?"

"My concubine forgives my sins, but I don't know about my lowly position." Song Taiyi was also very helpless. He could cure this physical illness, but he couldn't do anything about his mental illness.

"Let's give acupuncture first to the concubine to see why her legs are sick!"

The concubine was really afraid of needles, and she was about to order the imperial doctor who opened the needle pack to leave, but when she looked up and saw Princess Jia staring at her, she had to sacrifice her calf in aggrieved manner.

"If you don't look, you won't be afraid." When the imperial physician administered the needle, Princess Jia sat in front of the imperial concubine and reached out to cover her eyes lightly.

The concubine was so scared that she hugged Princess Jia tightly, trembling all over, shouting in her mouth: "What is meant by not giving needles and testing is inconclusive. According to Ai's family, the people in your imperial medical office are incompetent. Ai's family will not get needles even if they die. Those with the surname Song, you have to dare to attack the Ai family and punish your nine clans!"

Princess Jia sighed, lowered her head and whispered a few words next to the concubine, then raised her head and calmly said to the Song imperial physician: "The imperial physician, please perform the injection, your empress agrees."

No matter how dare the Song imperial physician, the empress dowager even let out such threatening words.

"Your Majesty, please tell the imperial physician yourself!" Princess Jia lowered her head and said humanely in her arms.

The concubine gritted her teeth and said, "Be quicker with your hands and feet. Let's do it!" After speaking, she took out the handkerchief and bit it between her teeth, and lay down on Princess Jia's shoulder with a face of despair.

The moxibustion needles are like ants, biting all the way into the flesh.

"Does it not hurt?" Princess Jia patted Taifei on the back: "Your Majesty, just bear with it for a while and it will be fine."

Concubine Toffee couldn't help but sneak a look back at her feet, her two calves had already been tied into two little hedgehogs, densely covered with needles.

"How does empress feel?" Song Taiyi asked.

Toffee bit her handkerchief, her eyes filled with tears, and tremblingly uttered a word. "pain!"

The price of having a beautiful woman by her side is painful, and the imperial doctor still has no conclusion after the acupuncture, so she can only continue to prescribe prescriptions to strengthen the princess.

"The concubine is willing to try some prescriptions with stronger medicinal effects. It doesn't matter if they are bitter. If those sweet warming prescriptions can't cure the disease, it's better to drink sweet soup." Princess Jia looked at her eyes and was so frightened that she collapsed on the bed. The imperial concubine said to Song imperial physician decisively: "Emperor physician, hurry up, the imperial concubine is going to take medicine after breakfast."

Nanny also went out with the imperial physician tactfully, not daring to disturb the two masters.

"Xian'er, go back to the palace!" The concubine's mind was still filled with the terrifying image of her legs being pricked with needles just now.

On the contrary, Princess Jia smiled slightly.This person always said how much he misses her and looks forward to her, but in the end, after a few needles, all affection is thrown away. I don't know whether to say that she is too fickle or too timid.But the more the concubine said so, the more Princess Jia dared not leave.Even if she stood by her like this, if she really returned to the palace, I'm afraid this person would never see her again in front of the imperial physician.

"Didn't you always beg me to live in the palace? Why did you drive me away again?" Princess Jia held back a smile and said, "If the empress insists on doing this, the concubine will really leave."

Concubine Tai had just suffered so much, how could she let him go easily: "You just wanted to leave without fulfilling what you promised me?"

In order to coax the concubine to allow the imperial doctor to administer the needle, Princess Jia whispered a few words in her ear, she blushed and said: "This concubine lied to the empress, otherwise you would not be obedient."

"Cheat me?" The concubine was angry, anxious and wronged.She almost frightened to death just now just for some sweetness, but it turned out to be a lie to her.

"Your Majesty has lied to my concubines so many times, so let's consider it a courtesy!" Princess Jia turned her face away and sniggered.

It was rare for the imperial concubine to cooperate with the treatment so well. Physician Song rushed back to the imperial medical office to grab the medicine. The nanny also took the medicine and went to the kitchen to cook the medicine according to the cooking time ordered by the imperial physician Song.

"There's too much water." Doctor Song did not leave after delivering the medicine, but stood in front of the fire and watched every step, as if the concubine's recovery depended entirely on this medicine.

"If the water lacks the medicine, it will be more bitter. I'm afraid that the mother will not be able to swallow it." The mother understands the fear of the princess.The fear of the bitter taste and moxibustion needles came from the body, and it was not easy to persist by gritting her teeth. The concubine was not a person who wanted to die, and she tried to swallow the soup many times, but every time she vomited it out.Sometimes the bitter taste is so severe that I spit out not only the medicine, but also the things I ate before.

"Princess Jia ordered the efficacy of the medicine to be the first priority, and it is rare for the empress to cooperate, so naturally the prescription with the best efficacy must be used." Song Taiyi put his hands on a cloth, picked up the medicine jar and poured some water, and then he was relieved.

The breakfast meal was delivered, and because the concubine was unable to move, the meal was placed on the small table on the bed.Concubine Jia didn't ask the maid to help, she personally cleaned the concubine's hands with a warm wet towel, and served her a dish: "Your Majesty, take it easy."

Looking up, she saw that Concubine Dowager opened her mouth in embarrassment, and closed it angrily when she saw that Concubine Jia didn't feed her.

"I eat it myself?" The concubine's words were full of grievances.

"The concubine has eaten in the palace." Princess Jia continued to serve the concubine Tai, putting the dishes on the plate in front of her.

Concubine Toffee meant to let Concubine Jia feed her. Seeing that the other party was really puzzled, she just said, "I have difficulty moving, ang~" After speaking, she opened her mouth and waited to be fed.

"Your Majesty's legs and feet are inconvenient, but her hands are fine." Princess Jia didn't dare to spoil the concubine, she knew this person's temperament, if she was used to it, she would immediately make even more excessive demands.

The concubine had no appetite, and the medicine that was warmed in a hot water bowl was brought along with the breakfast, the color was darker than usual, and the bitter taste could be smelled from a distance.She felt a little nauseous when she thought about drinking a whole bowl of bitter medicine after the meal, and she lost her appetite.

Princess Jia saw that the concubine was staring at the medicine with disgust on her face, and did not use her chopsticks to eat, so she had to pick up the food and hand it to her mouth.

The concubine's heart filled with infinite sweetness, she obediently opened her mouth to chew and swallow the food handed over.

After the sweet meal, it was the turn of the bowl of black juice.

Toffee resisted very much.Every time she took the medicine, she couldn't help feeling sick, and her stomach seemed to reject the medicine. What she feared most was not the bitter taste of the medicine, but the disgusting aftertaste after swallowing the medicine and re-vomiting.The last time Princess Jia entered the palace to feed her medicine, because her mind was on Princess Jia and the medicine was not extremely bitter, she drank it in a daze.

But today is different, the medicine is as black as ink.Toffee's whole body began to lie back in refusal.

Princess Jia picked up the medicine bowl and threw the spoon inside aside.

"Why...why...throwing the spoon..." Toffee felt very bad.

"Drink it in one gulp." Princess Jia handed the bowl to Taifei's mouth and said calmly.

The concubine turned pale with fright, and asked in disbelief: "One breath? Xian'er, tell the truth, did you enter the palace this time to avenge the past?"

Princess Jia's face turned cold, and the bowl in her hand sank half an inch. When she regained her senses, she calmed down and handed the bowl forward: "You need to drink this medicine anyway."

"I'll throw up."

"You won't." Princess Jia got up and supported the back of the concubine's neck, and said softly, "Even if you want to see me for a few more days, just drink the medicine obediently!"

The concubine felt a pain in her heart, obediently took the bowl and closed her eyes to die. She drank it until she saw the bottom of the bowl, slowly aftertaste the bitter taste, feeling a little uncomfortable in her heart, the soup lingered in her throat. Princess Jia suddenly hugged Her head was kissed down.

The lips were blocked, and the hopeless decoction entered the stomach smoothly.
