967. Chapter 967 The princess wants your life while you are sick 4
"This..." Caixia was in a dilemma, but if Ye Zixuan became seriously ill, she wouldn't be able to escape her involvement.
Seeing Caixia's silence, Ye Zixuan also remained silent for a while, and then she said according to the excuse she had thought of in advance: "How about this? I'll leave the palace and go back to the palace, where there is an imperial doctor. I'll wait until the imperial doctor examines my illness and takes the medicine."
, I will come back when the wind and cold are gone. Caixia, please go and ask the emperor for instructions."
As she said this, she deliberately squeezed out two tears: "Zixuan wanted to fulfill her filial piety but couldn't, but she caught the cold when her aunt was seriously ill..."
Seeing Ye Zixuan crying sadly, Caixia hurriedly comforted her with a few words of comfort: "Okay, Caixia will follow the princess' wishes and go and ask for the order."
"Well, thank you Caixia." Ye Zixuan seemed to be unable to stop crying, covering her face with her hands and sobbing.
Caixia picked up the cloak and put it on Ye Zixuan, then hurried down to find Zhang Luo, the eunuch in charge, about Ye Zixuan's departure from the palace.
As soon as she left, the candlelight in front of the bed jumped, and Ye Zixuan's ferocious face was printed upside down on the ground.
"Hmph, the time and place are favorable, why don't you die, Xia Ziluo?" Ye Zixuan laughed proudly, but she looked as weak as if she was broken by a gust of wind.
When the rooster crows, the first ray of morning light falls in the sky, and Ye Zixuan is carried out of the palace.
After a while, all the maids and eunuchs on duty in the palace got up and started their busy day.
In the imperial pharmacy, a fire had already been lit. The young eunuchs were cleaning up the room and decoctions with some qualifications. The higher ones were responsible for clearing and storing the medicines. The eunuchs in charge were just talking and looking at the accounts.
Today's situation is a bit special. There are two unusual patients in the palace-the Queen Mother and Princess Xiao. Neither of them dare to neglect them. If they are not good at serving, they will move their heads at any time.
Xiao Lizi and Xiao Dengzi, who were in charge of decoction for them, were veterans among the eunuchs who prepared the medicine. They had good control over the heat and their hands and feet were relatively clean.
At this moment, they signed and received the medicine from the eunuch in charge, put the medicine into the medicine jar, and skillfully began to boil the medicine.
Xiao Dezi was boiling tonics for the other concubines to take care of their bodies, while peeking at them.
The imperial pharmacy was strictly managed, and the imperial doctors were very careful about the medicines used by the Queen Mother and Princess Xiao. Not only did they take their pulse every day to give prescriptions, but they also personally took the medicine and gave it to the eunuchs who prepared the medicine.
He had no chance to transfer the medicine.
If the medicine was given in the middle, Xiao Dengzi and Xiao Lizi would definitely never leave the medicine jar. Even if there were so many pairs of eyes staring at them after leaving here, he would still have no chance to take action.
What should I do? Seeing that the aroma of the medicine is getting stronger and stronger, the medicine is about to be ready...
"Meow——" a cat meowed.
Xiao Dezi felt guilty and almost knocked over the medicine jar in front of him in fright. He quickly stabilized himself and glanced around.
All the eunuchs in the room heard the sound and were looking around: "That's strange, where did the cat come from?"
"Could it be that Persian cat owned by the queen sneaked out to play again? This is not good. It doesn't matter if it is playful, but don't hurt us." Another little eunuch shouted anxiously.
Xiao Dezi's eyes suddenly lit up, and he came up with a plan: "I'll go take a look and run away before no one notices. Otherwise, if we break in, knock over the medicinal materials or injure the Persian cat, we will all die."
.”
"Yes, yes!" The other eunuchs reconsidered.
Xiao Dezi then got the chance to leave the imperial pharmacy. As soon as he left the door, he saw the snow-white Persian cat licking its paws in front of the door of the warehouse where the medicine was stored.
