Brakkk....
Yang Jia Li kicked the table hard, arriving at the queen pavilion, it was the first thing he did. The empress was so upset to see Wu Li Mei win today.
At first he thought his visit to Su Country to accompany the emperor would be sweet, he would spend a lot of time with the emperor and make him love him more. But no, Emperor Zhou never even looked at the empress, even though the beautiful woman was next to him.
Emperor Zhou was unwilling to share a room with the empress, the man also acted coldly whenever they met.
"Damn, it's not okay that snake woman has won!" grumbled Yang Jia Li. "I can't keep quiet if I keep doing this. Wu Li Mei will truly become empress."
"I can't let this happen, I have to make a plan."
"Darling Yue!"
"Darling Yue!!!"
"Darling Yue!! Where's that waitress, you useless son of a bitch."
Yang Jia Li shouted like a fidelity person in her room, the empress came out to look for her loyal servant.
"Darling Yue!!"
"Greetings, Your Majesty." Dayang Yue half ran over to Yang Jia Li, the lady looked down respectfully.
"Ck! Where have you been, I've been calling you since."
"Sorry, Your Honor. I have to get your stuff back together."
"That's why!" yang Jia Li said, he stared intently at the ladyboy who looked down full of fear. "Do you have no ears, huh. I've been calling you since, my voice has been hoarse."
"I'm sorry, Your Majesty."
Yang Jia Li let out a breath of air, the ladies he had always been incompetent to comply with his wishes. In fact, they work to serve him.
"Prepare me water, I want to soak."
"Okay, Your Majesty."
Yang Jia Li chose to leave, returning to his room. Even the cold winter wind could not cool his head. The woman felt very tired after the excruciating journey from Su Country, how not, Yang Jia Li turned out to be seasick. And he only found out when he left for Su Country.
The empress continued to feel dizzy and vomited several times, so during the trip she only fell asleep on the boat.
Soaking is always fun and soothing, amazing. After a tiring journey, he now returns to soak comfortably. Dayang Yue sprinkled a lot of roses, because Yang Jia Li liked the scent of roses. The lady-in-waiting added more warm water to Empress Yang.
"Your Majesty, do you want to go back now?" ask Dayang Yue.
"No, I still want to soak."
"But, it's been a while."
Yang Jia Li rotated his eyeballs, "Be quiet Dayang Yue, I can take care of myself." he said.
Dayang Yue looked down respectfully, there was no point in him suggesting something to Yang Jia Li, because that woman would always obey her own will.
A ladyboy came to meet Dayang Yue, he whispered something. That dayang was a spy lady who worked in the grand concubine pavilion, Yang Jia Li deliberately put some of his loyal maids to spy on Wu Li Mei.
Dayang Yue immediately told Yang Jia Li.
"Sorry, Your Majesty."
"What?" ask the queen.
"The Eastern Commander, Lord Yang Zhe Yan, paid a visit to the grand concubine pavilion of Wu this afternoon."
"What!"
Dayang Yue whispered something in Yang Jia Li's ear, instantly the empress's entire white face turned red.
"Behold you are Wu Li Mei."
"I'll destroy you."
...****************...
Dayang Hong wiped away the sweat that flooded his lord's little daughter, Zhou Xie Ling. Since the morning the little princess was vomiting and her whole body was shivering, all the food she ate was always regurgitated.
Dayang Hong carefully laid Zhou Xie Ling back on her bed, raising the blanket to the chest.
The maids in the princess pavilion were busy adding space-warming charcoal and closing the windows so that the winter breeze could not enter.
Dayang Hong shook his head, "I don't know, Your Majesty."
"Yesterday, the princess is still fine" Dayang Hong said. "I always give herbs as you command, but this morning when the princess wakes up. The princess immediately vomited and shivered in the cold, Your Majesty."
"Have you given him any medicine?"
Dayang Hong shook his head, "Yet, Your Majesty. Whatever the princess eats is always spewed back."
Wu Li Mei walked in, approaching a little girl lying on the bed. His pale face was becoming less and less radiant.
Once again what the concubine was afraid of happened, Zhou Xie Ling again became ill. The woman did not know what else to do, because the medicine could not cure the princess completely. The herbal medicine he gave only helped him to stay afloat, but the disease remained lodged in his body and was growing.
Wu Li Mei stared softly, she stroked Xie Ling's head. Wu Li Mei smiled gently as the little girl piqued and started to open her eyes.
"Mother?" ogre.
"Yes, honey, mom's here." Wu Li Mei stroked Zhou Xie Ling's cheeks. "Mother brought you warm clothes."
Dayang Yi and Lu Yan who stood not far from Wu Li Mei gave a warm clothes knit made by the concubine specifically for her children.
Wu Li Mei helped her to sit down and put on warm clothes, Wu Li Mei also asked for a glass of water for Zhou Xie Ling.
"My head hurts, Mom. It was like spinning." the princess fought, she held her throbbing head in pain. His sight began to turn.
Wu Li Mei held the princess's hand to stop pulling her own hair as an outlet for pain.
"Loooooooooo!!!"
"It hurts, ma'am."
Zhou Xie Ling squirmed as her head throbbed violently. "Sakiiiittt!!"
"Stop baby, don't hit your own head."
Wu Li Mei held both hands of the princess, locking her in a cage so as not to re-injure herself. "Mother, it hurts so much!"
The concubine's tears dripped along with Zhou Xie Ling who was wriggling in her arms, the child crying hysterically enduring the pain.
"Mom, it hurts so much."
"Let'soo!!"
Wu Li Mei condemned his incompetence, he could only cry while hugging Zhou Xie Ling. There were very few records of this kind of illness in the Ming Dynasty, so he did not know what medicine was most efficacious for his daughter's recovery. Wu Li Mei only gave antibiotics and increased immunity, the woman was no longer in thought, even though Zhou Xie Ling had shown signs of recovery for the past few months.
Dayang Hong came with a tray containing herbs, the middle-aged woman desperately held back tears seeing Zhou Xie Ling in pain.
"It's an herb for the princess, Your Majesty."
"Thank you, Dayang Hong."
The pain of Zhou Xie Ling noble subsided, the little girl kept tightly hugging Wu Li Mei with the rest of her strength.
"Darling, let's take your medicine." Wu Li Mei. broke into the princess' embrace, taking out a small cup filled with herbs from Dayang Hong's tray.
But, as the cup accidentally passed through her sense of smell, Wu Li Mei frowned.
"Is this medicine really this sting?"
Dayang Hong and the other lady looked at each other, they did not understand. "Sorry, Your Majesty."
"I mean the smell is too pungent."
"It's a drug commonly given to princesses, we keep it in a special place so as not to mix with other drugs."
"Wait!"
Wu Li Mei observed closely, and his net caught a small bubble that was refracting in light, resembling an oil spill. "Did you see that, Dayang Hong."
Dayang Hong approached with a puzzled look, "What, Your Majesty."
"Bubble it? What was the previous time this drug produced bubbles?"
Dayang Hong shook his head stiffly, between sure and not.
"I have to check this medicine."
Wu Li Mei got up, her feelings saying there was something wrong with the herbal medicine consumed by Zhou Xie Ling. And he had to make sure himself, whether something was wrong or not.
