"Of course she doesn't dare to openly oppose the empress. I'm just worried about what she might do in private." Hua Yun'er said worriedly.
Concubine Duan thought for a while and said nothing. She just paused holding the tea cup and then put the cup on the table.
She didn't know that Hua Yun'er was provoking, so she had some thoughts in her heart.
The fifth prince is now stupid, and the emperor has ignored him, but now that Hua Yanxi has cured Yang Gelao, he has attracted the emperor's attention.
If she is allowed to continue, I am afraid there will be endless troubles. She wants to destroy this respect, but not now.
However, Concubine Duan's appearance in Hua Yun'er's eyes showed that she was very impatient with Hua Yanxi, and she was secretly happy in her heart.
"Your Majesty, the fifth prince's concubine has arrived and is already waiting outside the palace." The palace official reported.
"Let her come in." Concubine Duan said, looking at Hua Yun'er, who stood up and stepped aside.
When Hua Yanxi entered the door, she bowed and said, "See you, empress."
"I heard that you saved me that day."
"Yes." Hua Yanxi responded directly without saying any more words.
"Who did you learn your medical skills from?"
"My little girl once saved an old man when she was young. In order to thank my little girl for saving his life, the man gave me all he had learned in his life."
"Oh? Who is that person and where is he now?"
"The old man didn't want to reveal his identity. He left after his injury improved. My daughter doesn't know where he went."
Hua Yun'er said from the side: "Sister, I have been with you since I was a child, and the two of us have been inseparable, but I have never seen the old man you mentioned. Don't be fooling me."
Hua Yanxi said: "As a concubine, you naturally don't know so much."
"You..." Hua Yun'er glared at Hua Yanxi.
This woman keeps saying she is a concubine, and now she does it in front of Concubine Duan. It is really abominable.
Concubine Duan looked her over and said, "How are you going to detoxify me?"
Hua Yanxi said: "I wonder if your Majesty has taken the antidote pills given by my little girl in the past few days."
"I'm convinced."
"Okay, then please let me check your pulse first."
After checking her pulse, Hua Yanxi said: "The toxins in your body are decreasing. As for the poison that has entered the skin, you need to use a silver needle to pull it out. Please take off your clothes and lie down."
Concubine Duan was very cooperative and took Hua Yanxi into the inner hall to sit on the couch.
Outside, Hua Yun'er stared at the hanging curtain, feeling very angry. Then, she thought of something, waved her hand, and whispered a few words to the grandmother beside her.
When the grandma heard this, her eyes looked at Hua Yun'er in surprise, then looked inside, and whispered: "Isn't this bad?"
Hua Yun'er said coldly: "Just do as I say, and I will naturally talk to the empress."
"Yes." The nanny had received a lot of benefits from Hua Yun'er, so she naturally obeyed her orders and quickly retreated.
After nearly a cup of tea, the muffled sound of Concubine Duan could be heard in the inner room.
Hua Yun'er was about to rush in as soon as she heard this, but Hua Yanxi said: "Your Majesty is currently in the critical period of removing the poison. No one is allowed to come in and disturb her."
Concubine Duan gritted her teeth and endured the sound of her voice: "No one is allowed to come in."
At this moment, in the inner room, Hua Yanxi was holding a book and looking at it. Concubine Duan was lying on the couch, with dense silver needles pricking her body. She screamed in pain from time to time, and sweat was dripping from her forehead and back.
I don't know if it hurts or if the detoxification has had an effect.
Hua Yanxi occasionally took the time to pretend to be honest and said: "My dear, please bear with me. Your poison has been dormant for too long and has become one with your flesh and blood. If you want to remove it, you will naturally feel pain. You only need to remove it once every three to five days, and it will last three to five days."
It will clear the poison in five days.”
When Concubine Duan heard this, she could only grit her teeth and endure it.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Hua Yanxi took off the silver needle from her back.
Immediately, someone from the palace came in and was about to help Concubine Duan take a bath.
Hua Yanxi immediately said: "My dear, wait a minute. You have just had the poison removed and cannot take a bath. Please be patient for a while today."
The palace servant said: "But the empress has always been very clean. She sweats so much. How can she not take a bath?"
Hua Yanxi looked at the palace attendant sternly: "Which is more important, your health or mysophobia? Not only can you not bathe, but you can't touch water."
Concubine Duan waved her hands and sat up: "That's all, let me wipe off my sweat first. It's only for one day, I can still bear it."
Hua Yanxi said: "In that case, I won't disturb the queen's rest. I will leave."
Before Concubine Duan spoke, Hua Yun'er walked in, took Hua Yanxi's hand and said with a smile: "Sister, why are you leaving in such a hurry? Your Majesty has just finished the injection. If there are any side effects, then
Isn’t it troublesome to invite you into the palace later? Why don’t you sit down and rest for a while, wait and see how the empress is doing, and by the way, we sisters can also have a chat?”
Looking at her expression, Hua Yanxi knew that she was trying to cause trouble, so she freed her hand: "Speak carefully and don't pull around."
As he spoke, he patted the place where Hua Yun'er had touched as if patting dust.
Hua Yun'er gritted her teeth, but when she thought of her plan, she still managed to endure it.
Concubine Duan ordered the palace servants to prepare melon and fruit snacks.
The few of them sat for a while and said nothing. Hua Yun'er was just looking for topics to talk about.
"What has sister been busy with these days?" Hua Yun'er asked curiously.
Hua Yanxi raised her eyebrows: "Busy to make money."
"Haha, sister has really not forgotten her roots. Now that it has become the fifth prince's mansion, everything should be dominated by the fifth prince." Hua Yun'er pretended to be considerate.
Hua Yanxi snorted coldly: "Of course I can't compare to you. My seventh brother is tired of everything, so I can just sit at home and enjoy the results."
Hua Yun'er hurriedly looked at Concubine Duan's face and saw that she was indeed unhappy. She hurriedly explained: "The Seventh Prince is a dragon among men. He is wise and courageous. I can only do some meager things to take care of the trivial matters at home for him before entering the palace."
Accompanying the queen allows him to go about his errands with peace of mind."
Hua Yanxi just smiled and remained silent.
Hua Yun'er was afraid that Hua Yanxi would say something shocking again, so she hurriedly said: "Sister, please give me a diagnosis quickly."
After Hua Yanxi took a pulse and made sure that Concubine Duan was fine, she stood up to leave. When she picked up her box, she paused for a moment, and then walked out.
Sure enough, not long after he left the house, he was stopped by palace officials who were chasing after him.
"Fifth Princess, Concubine Duan has been stolen from her palace. Please come with us to investigate."
Hua Yanxi was surprised: "What does the theft in Concubine Duan's palace have to do with me? I'm just here to diagnose her pulse."
"Please come back with us." After saying that, several palace people surrounded Hua Yanxi.
Hua Yanxi was helpless: "Okay, then I'll go with you."
Hua Yanxi returned to Concubine Duan's palace again and saw Concubine Duan looking towards her with a steady expression.
Hua Yun'er was worried at the side: "Don't worry, Madam, this thing was still in the palace just now, so it shouldn't be lost."
