Chapter 717: The crime of great disrespect
Bai Zhi pushed her and said with a smile: “Sister, your making fun of me. When I first came, you didn’t even talk to me.”
Qing Lian laughed: “You can’t blame me. You are the person sent by Master Dongfang, and you are valued by Prince Jin. We are slaves, how dare we try to climb you? But you are kind-hearted and treated us slaves like sisters.”
Bai Zhi propped her chin and said: “In my eyes, people are people, regardless of high or low. No one wants to be a slave or maid for a lifetime. This is simply the cause of helplessness in the world. But I don’t agree with it.”
Qing Lian busily covered Bai Zhi’s mouth with her hand: “I say, young lady, this may be nonsense to you. But if people heard of it, they may accuse of the crime of great disrespect. That is terrible!”
Bai Zhi stuck out her tongue and chatted more for a while. She totally forgot that this was the palace, and saying these kinds of things were not good. After all, this level of distinction was inseparable from the royal family.
“Did Prince Xiao leave?” Bai Zhi counted the time, and she would like to see the Empress Dowager at this time. If she guessed it right, the Empress Dowager can wake up today.
Qing Lian shook her head: “I’m here to tell you this. His Royal Highness has been guarding the Empress Dowager and refused to leave. It seems that he intends to wait for you.”
Bai Zhi sat back in the reclining chair and continued to bask under the sun: “Then let him wait. After I sleep some more, I will decide whether to see him or not.”
Qing Lian put down the fan in her hand: “If this is the case, then you take a rest. I will go back to the front hall and watch. If there is anything, I will let you know soon.”
Qing Lian just turned around and was about to go outside, when a little palace maid hurried over. She was still out of breath while reporting “Doctor Bai, hurry up, the Empress Dowager is awake. The Empress Dowager is awake!”
Upon hearing this, Bai Zhi immediately bounced from the reclining chair, ignoring the medicine that was still boiling in the small furnace, and instructed Qing Lian to remove most of the fire in the furnace and change it to low fire for slow frying.
After hurrying to the front hall, she saw two palace maids were serving the Empress Dowager to drink tea. Seeing Bai Zhi came in, one of the palace maids busily said: “Empress Dowager, this is the doctor who treats you.”
Chu Feng, who was sitting in front of the bed, also followed the Empress Dowager’s gaze and saw the thin figure coming in from the outside. He couldn’t see her appearance in the backlight until she walked closer to him. This face... ...
It seems to be more beautiful than when he saw it at the palace banquet that day. Especially her eyes, they were bright and full of energy. She was smiling so her eyes were slightly bent. Her pink lips were lightly pursed, but dazzling.
Bai Zhi paid greetings the Empress Dowager, who was leaning on the palace maid.
The Empress Dowager opened her mouth and replied: “No need for the ceremony!”
The Empress Dowager’s voice was slightly hoarse, but her words were clear. It sounded no different from normal people.
Bai Zhi straightened her back and looked up at the Empress Dowager sitting on the bed, and smiled: “The Empress Dowager has a deep blessing and seems to be alright.”
The Empress Dowager had just woke up, so she hadn’t figured out what was going on. She only knew that she was sick. She just woke up, so she doesn’t know who was this little girl talking in front of her. Why she hasn’t seen her before? Looking at her dress, she doesn’t look like someone in the palace!
Qing Lian was one of the powerful palace maids beside the Empress Dowager. Seeing the look in the Empress Dowager’s face, she immediately stepped forward and said warmly: “Niangniang, this Miss Bai is a doctor. When you are sick, she has been taking care of you.”
Only then did the Empress Dowager come to understand. No wonder the palace maids around her looked at her differently. And not only her palace maids, but even her grandson was also looking at this Miss Bai.
