“The emperor, this matter is this empress dowager’s idea. You don’t have to blame her.” The empress dowager was also angry. The emperor’s ugly words just now were definitely for her.

The emperor snorted and glanced sideways at the Old Mama Huang: “If no such slave were instigating, the empress dowager wouldn’t have such thoughts.”

The emperor then sternly swept his eyes to the eunuchs to the side and said calmly: “What are you still doing in a daze? Drag her out.”

The empress dowager sat up and watched the Old Mama Huang being dragged away. There was no other way. This Cifu Palace was her territory. Everything should be decided by her, but she called the emperor.

The emperor was in charge of the entire Chu Country, including the people in the Cifu Palace. Everyone must listen to the emperor.

When Old Mother Huang was dragged away, the two palace maids next to her turned pale in fright. They knelt on the floor and trembled in fear, as beads of sweat rolled from their foreheads.

The emperor ignored the empress dowager and the palace maids. He only looked at Imperial Doctor Xu and asked, “Would it be enough if you change back the medicine?”

Imperial Doctor Xu shook his head: “The pulse condition of the empress dowager is chaotic, her situation is not good. If we only use the original medicine, I’m afraid it will not help. I will ask Miss Bai to come and get advice for the treatment. This old doctor will listen to her opinion.”

The emperor was embarrassed. Bai Zhi was bullied by the empress dowager just now. And now, they will ask her to see the Empress Dowager. No need to ask if she will be willing or not, Dongfang Mu and Chu Yan would not agree.

“It may not be convenient for Bai Zhi, can’t you look at the empress dowager if there is another way?”

Imperial Doctor Xu didn’t know what happened to Bai Zhi in the Cifu Palace earlier, so he asked curiously: “Why is it inconvenient for her? Didn’t she come to the imperial hospital today? This old doctor will go and call her to come.”

The emperor waved his hand: “No, she has already returned to the Dongfang Mansion. She is not in the imperial hospital. The empress dowager’s illness will be handed over to you. Bai Zhi might not enter the palace in the future. If you are unsure, you can go to the Dongfang Mansion to ask her.”

Imperial Doctor Xu looked dumbfounded, but the emperor had said so, what else could he do? He had no choice but to respond.

After Imperial Doctor Xu retired, the emperor didn’t stay for long. He said a few more words to the empress dowager and then left.

The empress dowager looked at the emperor walked away, she suddenly felt a little flustered. Her original smooth breath suddenly became rapid and she felt very uncomfortable.

Thinking of what Imperial Doctor Xu just said, she felt even more upset: “Hurry up, call Imperial Doctor Liang.”

After Imperial Doctor Xu left the imperial hospital, he went straight to Dongfang Mansion.

As usual, he was stopped outside the gate, but there was another person who was stopped outside the gate with him.

Imperial Doctor Xu cupped his hand to Pei Qinghan: “Houye!”

Pei Qinghan also replied: “Imperial Doctor Xu!”

Imperial Doctor Xu had a bad impression of Pei Qinghan, so he didn’t talk to talk to him again after greeting him. He turned his head to look away.

Pei Qinghan stood alone in the cold wind for a long time. Now that someone came, he naturally wanted to say a few words.

“Imperial Doctor Xu is here at this time, is there someone inside who is sick?” Pei Qinghan asked.

Imperial Doctor Xu shook his head: “No, no, no, I’m here to see Miss Bai. I need to ask Miss Bai about something.” He then smiled: “Miss Bai’s medical skills are far above me. If someone is sick in the house, I’m afraid they don’t need to ask this old man.”

Pei Qinghan also heard about Bai Zhi’s medical skills, but he didn’t expect them to be so good that even the head of the imperial hospital was ashamed to look down on her.

“She really has better medical skills than Imperial Doctor Xu?” Pei Qinghan asked anxiously, not knowing what to feel. Should he be proud? Or regret it?
