The Empress Arrives: Rebirth of Concubine Hua

After a moment, Wen Xianqing withdrew his hand and saluted to Ulanara.

"Reporting to the Empress and Concubine Hua, I just felt Concubine Zhen's pulse.

It was discovered that Zhen Changzai suffered from the same disease as Wan Guiren.

They are all caused by yin deficiency, excessive fire and imbalance of the middle burner.

I have prescribed some medicine for you, please take it and pay more attention to your diet.

It should be fine in three to five days.

But I have to take a look at your complexion before I can prescribe the right medicine."

Zhen Changzai's worry was finally put at ease. It was said that Doctor Wen was a rare genius who could cure diseases that ordinary people could not.

Seeing it today, it’s just like this.

As long as he didn't diagnose Qiuzhicao in public, it would be fine.

Zhen Chang hesitated for a moment and then took off the scarf that had been covering her face.

Wen Shichu quietly looked up at Zhen Changzai's face, then immediately lowered his head again.

This Concubine Zhen is quite similar to Concubine Wan in Suiyuxuan.

But her voice is not as pleasant as that of Concubine Wan.

Thinking of Concubine Wan's voice that day, Wen Shichu felt his ears burning.

He quickly lowered his head, fearing that someone would notice something.

Wen Xianqing looked at Zhen Changzai's expression and became more certain that there were traces of Qiuzhicao in her body.

Wen Xianqing turned around and quietly told his son to write a prescription.

Ulanara sighed and looked like she was trying to comfort Concubine Zhen.

"Sister Zhen, what are you so anxious about?

I even got a rash on my face because of it.

Now that Imperial Doctor Wen has examined the case, I feel relieved.

I still have to go see Lady Wan, so I'll leave first."

After saying that, he took Concubine Duan to Sui Yuxuan.

Concubine Duan followed behind Ulanara and had something in mind.

I just saw it with my own eyes and realized that Concubine Zhen's expression was exactly the same as Concubine Wan's that day.

So after Ulanara chatted with Concubine Wan for a few words, Concubine Duan said casually.

"No need to worry too much, Lady Wan. Lady Zhen is just like you today.

Doctor Wen said that it was caused by imbalance of the middle burner and excess of yin and fire.

I know that a woman’s appearance is the most important thing.

I still have some jade powder given by the emperor.

I will ask someone to send some to you two in a while.

Once the red marks on your face fade away, you can take good care of your face.”

Ulanara, who was talking to Concubine Wan with a smile, looked deeply at Concubine Duan and blocked Concubine Wan's questions with words.

When Concubine Wan heard about this, she felt suddenly enlightened.

I have been sick these few days and I can't find out who did it.

But now only he and Zhen Changzai have the same symptoms in the palace. Could it be that Zhen Changzai is jealous of his favor and wants to replace him?
But how to explain the rash on her face?
Is it a self-torture tactic?

In order to confirm her guess, Concubine Wan summoned her personal eunuch, Li Yibai, after sending away Ulanara and Concubine Duan.

"Go and find out for me how Zhen Changzai got sick.

Also, find a way to find out if Zhen Chang has the antidote!"

Li Yibai replied "yes" and went downstairs.

But he turned around and quietly went to look for Xiao Linzi.

Xiao Linzi smiled and handed him the bottle of antidote in his arms.

"Take it and report back!"

Li Yibai rolled his eyes and said.

"I didn't find anything a few days ago, and the young lady is already unhappy. Please don't try to fool me. Is this bottle really what the young lady wants?"

Xiao Linzi also rolled his eyes and pretended to snatch the bottle from Li Yibai's hand.

Li Yibai quickly stuffed the small medicine bottle into his arms.

"Hurry up and report back. You talk too much nonsense."

Xiao Linzi saw Li Yibai was about to leave and said again.

“I have already given you the money you asked me to give to your family a few days ago.

Just do your thing with peace of mind."

Speaking of this, Li Yibai paused, turned back and stared into Xiao Linzi's eyes seriously.

"I know. I thank you, Eunuch Lin, for your care. I will definitely fulfill my mission."

Xiao Linzi rummaged around in his arms, took out some change and threw it to Li Yibai.

"Take it and have some wine, don't worry about home."

After Li Yibai left, Xiao Linzi curled his lips and muttered to himself.

"You know nothing. I even gave you five taels of silver myself.

Well, I am kindhearted and just can't stand orphans and widows at home."

He finished talking to himself and went about his own business.

Li Yibai took the antidote to report, and Concubine Wan became even angrier.

The rash on her face was no longer red due to the medicine prescribed by Doctor Wen, but it had not completely faded.

Concubine Wan held the small bottle of medicine that Li Yibai brought back in her hand and snorted coldly.

"I heard that Zhen Chang fell ill last night and didn't dare tell anyone.

Even the emperor said she was not feeling well.

It's not that she's physically uncomfortable, it's that she's afraid that the rash on her face will be seen by the emperor? !
It's hard for her to enter the palace and not sleep with the emperor yet, but she has been able to avoid being exposed for what she did.

She refused the emperor's favor. No wonder she didn't dare to ask the imperial physician.
Are you afraid that the imperial physician might find out something?"

Li Yibai stood beside Concubine Wan with his back bent, and responded in a low voice.

"My lord is smart. I have followed your instructions to investigate Guanju Tower.
I was listening to Chang Zhen talking to her dowry maid.

It’s a good thing the imperial physician didn’t diagnose the disease yet.

I saw with my own eyes from the beam as the dowry maid took the medicine and gave it to Zhen Changzai to take.

After she put the medicine back to its original place, I secretly took the bottle away. "

Lady Wan said.

"You brought this bottle here, what if she finds it?"

Li Yibai smiled.

"Don't worry, my lord. I have already found an identical bottle and put it back.

It’s just that my servant replaced the contents of the bottle with Tianwang Heart Protecting Pills.

Even if Zhen Changzai ate it, it wouldn't kill people.

Even if she finds out that the medicine is different, she can only suffer in silence."

Only then did Concubine Wan feel relieved and took out an ingot of silver and threw it to Li Yibai.

"Well done, go on down."

Li Yibai took the silver, thanked his master profusely, and walked out happily.

That’s great. If we give him money, within a year, his mother and younger sister will be able to buy land in the countryside.

Then mother and younger sister will be able to live a good life!
Ever since the faces of Concubine Wan and Concubine Zhen recovered one after another, Nian Shilan heard that Concubine Wan, who was known for her peace of mind, was always dissatisfied with Concubine Zhen for some reason.

Either today he would complain that she talked too much and was disrespectful in front of the Empress, or tomorrow he would ask her to go to the Baohua Palace to pray for blessings and ask Zhen Changzai to copy Buddhist scriptures with him.

But Concubine Wan could not write more than a few words on the Buddhist scripture, so she threw it to Concubine Zhen to write.

Nian Shilan also heard that Zhen Chang complained a lot about Concubine Wan in private.

It is said that Concubine Wan is favored by the emperor but still tortures herself, which shows that she has a bad heart.

The quarrel between Concubine Wan and Concubine Zhen gradually became known to everyone in the harem, and even Yinzhen heard some rumors. (End of this chapter)
