Chapter 359: Xiaoqian Walks with Aunt



The Imperial Physician wore a somewhat reluctant expression.

But in the face of the Empress, he dared not refuse.

At first, he felt contempt, but when he clearly saw the prescription written on the paper, his expression changed.

From contempt to incredulity, then realization, and finally, shame.

Jiang Ning didn’t say a word, waiting for him to articulate it himself.

“What exactly do you mean?” The Empress could not resist asking, “Imperial Physician Wen, the emperor’s eldest grandson is still sick, you should come up with a solution, rather than standing there dumbfounded.”

Imperial Physician Wen hastily said, “In response to Your Highness, we should use the prescription brought by Princess Consort of Yu.”

“Oh? Is it better than the one you prescribed?”

“… In response to Your Highness, Princess Consort of Yu’s prescription is more accurate for this illness than mine.”

The Empress turned to Jiang Ning, “Did Princess Consort of Yu gather this prescription from various sources?”

“This prescription was written by my manor’s doctor. Wenzan and Lingzi fell ill earlier than the emperor’s eldest grandson, and after drinking the medicine for two days, they are much better. The emperor’s eldest grandson only started having a fever today and has already taken medicine this afternoon. So, there is no need for him to take any additional medicine today; he should just get a good night’s sleep and have some light meals upon waking up.”

The Empress replied, “If there’s no need for medicine, why didn’t you say so earlier?”

Jiang Ning replied, “I was too anxious and neglected to do so. Please forgive me, Your Highness.”

Oh, did she forget to mention this?

Of course not.

She had been waiting here the whole time for the Empress to summon the Imperial Physician, only for him to invalidate his own treatment.

If Jiang Ning had openly criticized the Imperial Physician’s medical skills at the outset, not only might the Empress not believe her, she might have also ordered her to leave in anger.

Now, with Imperial Physician Wen conceding his inferior skills, the Empress was speechless and had no choice but to accept the prescription offered by Jiang Ning.

The Empress ordered for the emperor’s eldest grandson to be settled in a side hall and assigned several nannies and palace maidens to take care of him.

However, Li Tingqian couldn’t bear to let go of Jiang Ning, holding onto her and crying, begging for his little Aunt to stay.

As an outsider, it was inappropriate for Jiang Ning to stay overnight in the palace. Not only would the Empress disapprove, but Jiang Ning couldn’t neglect her own two children at home either.

With only Huang Ying barely holding the fort at the grand mansion of Prince Yu, she couldn’t make decisions if anything were to happen.

So she could only placate the emperor’s eldest grandson.

“Xiaoqian, you can sleep here with your Imperial Grandmother. And once you get better in a few days, your little Auntie will come to take you home, okay?”

“Xiaoqian wants to go with little Auntie.”

“Outside is cold, if you don’t rest well, you won’t recover from your illness and you won’t be able to return to Prince Yu’s mansion soon.”

“But, I will miss little Auntie.”

The child’s puckered lips and teary eyes truly broke Jiang Ning’s heart.

The Empress spoke: “That’s enough, it’s getting late. You should go home earlier; there are also two small ones at home for you to take care of. After all, they are both of the royal bloodline, and not a single error can be allowed.”

Jiang Ning hugged Xiaoqian once more and left amid his sobbing.

Xiaoman, shedding tears, wailed, “The emperor’s eldest grandson is so pitiful. Why can’t we let him recuperate at our mansion? The Empress may not take better care of him than us…”

“Xiaoman, there are things you don’t understand, so don’t speak carelessly. Be careful not to cause trouble if someone hears you.”

“Oh.”

Jiang Ning told her to stop, and she obediently shut her mouth, pushing the wheelchair in the snowy night.

On the way back, of course, there were no eunuchs willing to guide them, so they could only follow the palace wall and head towards the Immortal-view Gate based on their memories.

The night was very dark.

The snow was heavy.

Both the mistress and the maid were very quiet, the only sounds were the creaking of the wheelchair wheels and the crunching of feet in the snow..
