He stared blankly at the young lady, who looked similar to him passing by. The young lady didn’t look at him, as if she didn’t see him.

 

But he knew that she must have seen him, she was just pretending she didn’t see.

Pei Qinghan fell into the chair. He couldn’t calm down in shock for a long time. Could it be that the resentment and hatred he felt for more than 10 years were all misunderstandings?

 

Bai Zhi pretended she didn’t see Pei Qinghan, but she sighed inside her heart.

Their plan changed so fast!

 

Bai Zhenzhu and Chu Feng were scheduled to hold an engagement banquet on the 8th day of the first lunar month. They originally planned to submit the divorce letter to the emperor after the engagement banquet.

 

But right now, it seems that the plan will be dismissed.

 

She walked quickly towards the Empress Dowager, and after a quick check, she had the same diagnosis as Imperial Doctor Xu. The Empress Dowager lose consciousness because she had a stroke.

Bai Zhi quickly took out a silver needle and pierced directly the Empress Dowager’s Baihui Point. Then, she turned around and asked the palace maid to bring her a brush and paper. She wrote down a prescription and asked them to prepare them immediately.

Imperial Doctor Xu took the prescription and took a glance, then frowned: “Bull’s horn? Niuhuang? Musk? Are you planning to use these things to save the Empress Dowager?”

 

Bai Zhi ignored Imperial Doctor Xu and looked at Hu Feng. Hu Feng immediately understood. He stepped forward and stood beside Bai Zhi. He was tall, so the officials behind him couldn’t see what she was doing.

Bai Zhi took out the medicine from the cloth bag she brought, pulled out the medicine with the syringe, and then injected it into the body of the Empress Dowager. This series of actions were fast and natural, making the emperor stunned.

What the hell was that? When he returned to his senses, he wanted to ask, but Bai Zhi had already put things back in the cloth bag.

Hu Feng said: “Imperial Father, please believe Bai Zhi. Although her things look strange, they are all life-saving medicines. This son has used these medicines before. Without these medicines, this son will not be here anymore.”

 

After hearing those words, the emperor was relieved. He hurriedly asked Bai Zhi: “How is the Empress Dowager now?”

 

Bai Zhi replied: “It’s not yet clear. We need to wait for the medicine to take effect and see her condition when she wakes up to make a judgment.”

The Emperor took a glance at Imperial Doctor Xu coldly and angrily said: “What are you standing in a daze? Why don’t you go and prepare the herbs?”

After receiving the emperor’s order, Imperial Doctor Xu didn’t dare to doubt it anymore. He immediately went to the medicine hall to get the herbs and prepared carefully according to the prescription. He didn’t dare to have any deviation.

While the officials were in the main hall, Bai Zhi refined the medicine in the partial hall. Soon, she refined two pills.

 

One is to be used right now, while the other was left for later use.

The Empress Dowager woke up half an hour after taking the pills. She couldn’t remember what happened when she opened her eyes, but her vision became clear slowly. She could hear the emperor was talking. She could move her hands and feet. Her eyes were slightly crooked, but her nose and mouth returned to normal condition.

Imperial Doctor Xu was dumbfounded and looked at the 13 or 14-year-old girl in front of him. Such a soft and weak-looking girl turned out to be a master of medicine. Even if it was a stroke, she has a way to treat it.

When the emperor saw that the Empress Dowager was getting better, he was overjoyed. He even mentioned giving a reward.

 

After the Empress Dowager was sent back to the palace, he remembered Bai Zhi’s identity. Dongfang Mu once said that Dongfang Wan was seriously ill and almost at her death bed. It was when Bai Zhi appeared, not only the situation reversed and rescued Dongfang Wan but also brought happiness in their heartbroken home.

“You are Bai Zhi?” The emperor asked.

Bai Zhi nodded her head and respectfully paid respect: “This young lady is Bai Zhi. May the emperor live a thousand more years!” She doesn’t understand the rules of the palace. She only said the words she heard from the TV. She didn’t know if what she did was right.
