On the second day, Su Nianyun and Chu Xue entered the East Palace, one holding pink pearls and the other holding flowing silk satin, following the Queen Mother's instructions.
Prince Zhao Chengzhi happened to be away, so his concubine Nangong Xing, who had always been favored, came out to receive the two of them.
"Princess Nianyun, it's unlucky that you're here. Our Crown Princess happens to be ill. Why don't you give the things to me, and I'll pass them on to my sister!"
While talking, Nangong Xing did not forget to look at Chu Xue.
She knew that Chu Xue had been walking with Nangong Yue, so she must have heard some rumors, so she encouraged Princess Nianyun to come.
Chuxue, who has the Queen Mother's instructions, has a straight waist.
"Concubine Nangong, this is the Queen Mother's decree. She asked the Crown Princess to pick up the things in person. How can we explain to the Queen Mother if we don't see the Crown Princess?"
Nangong Xing rolled her eyes at Chuxue. This guy who used the chicken feathers as an arrow obviously came here to take advantage of Princess Nianyun, but now he is here to show off with her?
However, when she was a concubine in the past, she dared not to put these two people in front of her because the prince was still in power at that time.
Today is different from the past.
Even if the prince didn't say anything, she could still tell from his tired eyes that it was not easy for him to be in court.
Not to mention that she was a concubine, given the prince's precarious status, she did not dare to win over the two people in front of her again.
One of them is the beloved adopted daughter of the Queen Mother, and the other is the daughter-in-law of the Minister of Punishment.
"I'm doing this for your own good. My sister has a contagious disease, and she's alone right now..."
Before Nangong Xing could finish speaking, Su Nianyun said, "That's just right, we've brought the imperial doctor here!"
After saying that, a man dressed in a hospital style came out.
Whatever Nangong Xing wanted to say was choked.
"Since both Princess Nianyun and Mrs. Yang insist, please feel free to do it yourself. However, we have agreed in advance that if anything happens to you two, don't blame me for not reminding you in advance."
Nangong Xing gave the maid a wink, and the maid stepped forward, "Princess and Mrs. Yang, please come this way..."
Su Nianyun was confused as she walked.
Seeing Nangong Xing doesn’t mean to embarrass everyone.
Since meeting Nangong Yue was so smooth, why did Chuxue receive the news that Nangong Yue was imprisoned?
It wasn't until they followed the maid around most of the east palace that Su Nianyun realized that feelings were deliberately taking them around the corner so they could clean up the scene, right?
Sure enough, the maid circled around and finally stopped at the main palace gate, "Princess Nianyun, Mrs. Yang, and the Crown Princess are inside."
Su Nianyun and Chu Xue pushed the door open, but the maid stayed where she was.
"You...won't you follow?" Su Nianyun asked.
"Princess Qi, the disease on the Crown Princess is contagious, and the concubine ordered us not to get close to her."
Su Nianyun frowned, but didn't say anything.
The kid is tough.
It’s better to get down to business as soon as possible while the prince is away!
Su Nianyun took Chu Xue and an imperial physician, and the three of them walked into the palace together.
The palace seemed to have not been cleaned for a long time, and there was thick dust everywhere.
It seemed that no one had lived here for a long time, and even the depressed woman in white was obviously just brought here from somewhere else.
Seeing Chu Xue, Nangong Yue's pale face changed slightly, "Why are you here?"
"You're still talking about it!" Chuxue's eyes turned red when she saw Nangong Yue looking so haggard, "If Sun Ruyu hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known you were tortured like this?"
"Did... Sun Ruyu tell you?"
"Yes," Chuxue looked at Nangong Yue with tears in her eyes, "What's wrong with you? I brought the imperial doctor here."
"You brought the imperial physician here?" Nangong Yue couldn't believe it, "How could Nangong Xing let you bring the imperial physician in?"
"It's Nianyun..." Chuxue turned back and glanced at Su Nianyun, "I begged Nianyun. Nianyun went to beg the Queen Mother again, so we followed the Queen Mother's orders and came in to see you."
"When did I say that I wanted you to come see me? Don't be pretentious and leave as soon as possible!"
After taking a look at Su Nianyun, Nangong Yue showed no gratitude, but instead drove her away in boredom.
"Nangong Yue, why are you like this?" Chuxue said, "We are here to help you out of kindness, why are you still in such a bad temper?"
"What's my temper like? I've always had this temper, haven't you gotten used to it since you were a kid?"
Nangong Yue said, "I said you don't need to come to see me, so who told you to come and see me? You are acting on your own, why don't you come here to scold me?"
"You should be like Sun Ruyu and don't come if you hear it!"
Chuxue was stunned by Nangong Yue's scolding.
She never thought that what she had been thinking about was doing something wrong.
Su Nianyun blocked Chu Xue behind her, "Look, you begged grandpa to sue grandma and asked for this opportunity to visit your best friend, but she didn't appreciate it!"
"How does it feel to be treated like a donkey with good intentions? I told you a long time ago that she has been bullying you, but you still speak for her and treat her as a friend!"
"No, that's not the case. The Nangong Yue was not like this before!"
Up to this point, Chuxue still didn't believe that Nangong Yue was the kind of real bad woman.
"You go out first, and I will seek justice for you!" With that said, Su Nianyun pushed Chu Xue out of the door and closed the door.
Chuxue turned around and knocked on the door, "Nianyun, don't make things difficult for Nangong Yue, she is a patient!"
Nangong Yue looked at Su Nianyun in surprise, "What do you want?"
She got Chuxue out, but an imperial doctor was left inside. Could it be that she wanted to force him to see a doctor?
"I told you, I don't need you to treat me!"
"I know, you don't have any disease to begin with. What disease are you treating?"
"You...you guys know?"
Nangong Yue looked at Su Nianyun and the imperial physician beside her in surprise, "What do you mean?"
"I want to ask you what you mean?" Su Nianyun said, "Do you want to continue to pretend to be sick and weak? Or do you want to recover overnight?"
Nangong Yue looked at Su Nianyun blankly and said nothing.
Su Nianyun said, "Don't worry, Dr. Gao is very skilled in medicine and sympathizes with your experience..."
The imperial doctor who came with him was Gao Wenxuan, who had been rescued by Su Nianyun and was finally admitted to the imperial hospital.
After Gao Wenxuan successfully entered Tai Hospital with his superb medical skills, he kept thinking about when to leave the palace to meet his benefactor.
Unexpectedly, before he could go out, God sent his benefactor in front of him.
Su Nianyun expected that when she went to see Nangong Yue, Nangong Xing would stop her with the excuse of being sick, so she went to the Imperial Hospital and asked an imperial doctor to follow her.
Unexpectedly, he met Gao Wenxuan, who had just entered Tai Hospital.
Su Nianyun thought that Gao Wenxuan probably wouldn't be able to recognize her since she always dressed as a man.
Unexpectedly, Gao Wenxuan recognized his benefactor with just one glance. He came close to Su Nianyun and said, "My benefactor, I didn't expect that you are actually a princess?"
In order to prevent his affairs outside from being exposed even more, Su Nianyun had no choice but to take Gao Wenxuan with him. While talking about the East Palace, he asked him not to talk about his medical practice at the Mobei Medicine Shop.
Gao Wenxuan nodded understandingly, "I understand, after all, you are a daughter and a princess, and you have many inconveniences when traveling, so you have to dress in men's clothing!"
"Don't worry, my benefactor, I understand everything and I won't say anything."
With Gao Wenxuan's promise, Su Nianyun felt relieved to bring him to the East Palace.
Moreover, with Gao Wenxuan by her side, it was easier for her to do things.
Just like now, she warned Nangong Yue, "If you pretend to be sick, a doctor will be able to expose you."
"If you want to continue to be sick, Dr. Gao has a way to help you get well. I guarantee that no one will doubt you."
"You... can you really do it?" Nangong Yue asked this question after a long while.
For some reason, although she had no friendship with Su Nianyun before, when she saw that it was Chu Xue who brought him, she inexplicably wanted to trust her.
"It's true." Gao Wenxuan nodded, "Princess, how do you choose?"
"Then...just help me look better when I'm sick!"
In the end, Nangong Yue chose to believe in Su Nianyun and Gao Wenxuan.
Gao Wenxuan nodded, "Can you please let me take the Crown Princess's pulse first, so that I can know how to make you 'sick' worse!"
"Okay!" Nangong Yue showed her wrist and asked Gao Wenxuan to feel his pulse.
Soon, Gao Wenxuan stopped his hand and took out several bottles and cans from his arms.
The diseases on his body sometimes require poison to fight poison, so he carries some poison with him.
Although these drugs are toxic, they are not fatal.
Soon, he selected a blue pill bottle and poured out the pills.
