A little interlude wouldn't affect the holding of the banquet, it was just that when Zhou Yuting and the rest changed their clothes and sat at the bottom, Wang Rong didn't return to the banquet either.
Palace Manager Cui returned after going out for a round, and reported in a low voice that both the empress dowager and the emperor could hear, "Miss Zhixi is not feeling well, allow me to send Miss Zhixi back to her Chuxiu Palace."
"The affection between sisters is deep. It's pretty good." Empress Dowager Chen said. However, just by looking at their appearances, I really can't tell that they are blood sisters. "
"That's strange too. The eunuchs who picked these were all from the same family, but I don't know how they picked these two." Even at such a close age, if you want to pick a pair of beautiful sisters for His Majesty, it doesn't look like it? "
"On the other hand, I feel that my sister's face is round and amiable. Just looking at her makes me feel lucky." The Empress Dowager Li said.
"His Majesty likes this Imperial Consort Candidate. Does his Majesty like people who look lucky?" Empress Dowager Chen asked with a smile.
"Isn't it lucky that I like whoever I like?" Zhu Yijun said.
After going through so much trouble to coax Wang Zhixi to sleep, Wang Rong and she called Fangruo over. She did not keep him in suspense and said, "I don't care if you have people backing you or not, if you still want to stay in the palace, then serve your young lady properly. You need to attend to her even more wholeheartedly than before."
"This servant doesn't understand Miss's meaning. I will naturally do my best to serve Miss Zhixi, but Miss Ruoxi doesn't want me to serve you anymore. This servant has no choice." Fangruo lowered her head and said.
"If you leave this time, everyone in Chuxiu Palace will know that you are the one behind all this. Who would still dare to use you? As for the master behind you, I'm afraid he won't take you to her palace at this time. Isn't this just announcing it to the world? " Wang Ronghe said, "If you have an idea to go somewhere else, you must know that all of us are going to live in the palace. When the time comes for the final award, no matter what, you will still be a small master. If you want to teach you a lesson as a little palace maid, it would probably be an easy feat. "
"Miss, please understand. This servant really asked around for the good news about Miss Zhixi. This servant really isn't anyone's person." Fangruo kneeled on the ground.
"I believe you, and you girls will believe you as well, so you serve me well. Do you know? " Wang Rong He said.
Fangruo had thought that if Wang Zhixi left the palace, she would just shed a few tears, and after that, she would just have to wait until someone else served her. She did not want to serve Imperial Lower Consort Guo at all and could not even squeeze in. But now, Wang Zhixi had committed such a big taboo yet she still did not leave the palace. Whether he could tolerate her was another question, and how he would torture her after taking care of her was another question.
However, as Wang Yunzhi had said, she could not leave now either. Fangruo secretly encouraged herself, if Wang Zhixi were to let her go, then it would no longer be her business. Judging from her crazy attitude just now, maybe after a few more days, her aunt would have transferred her away.
But he didn't wait for Wang Zhixi to lose her composure again.
The next morning, Fangruo went to serve Wang Zhixi. Only then did she realise that her body was boiling. Fangruo hurriedly went to find his aunt, her aunt had people go to the imperial physician after she finished visiting her. While they were waiting for the imperial physician to arrive, her aunt told Fangruo to find a cold water to apply a handkerchief to Wang Zhixi's face to cool it down.
As the Imperial Consort Candidate of the same hall, she was clearly afraid that the disease might have passed, her aunt said angrily, "Right now, the Miss hasn't been able to diagnose any of the illnesses, but the both of you are afraid that the illness might have passed. At any rate, the Miss has been living under the same roof for such a long time, so the Miss is too cold hearted."
"What other illness could it be? A death wish." Another Imperial Consort Candidate said sarcastically, "The big guy was busy for a few days, and since she was wasting her efforts, she still had the nerve to get sick. She also wants to be pitied by His Majesty and give her a golden hairpin."
The Imperial Consort Candidate was being advised to keep her temper by others, but the imperial physician did not come until the afternoon. On the side, Chuxiu Palace had to be reported, and people had to be arranged by the Imperial Hospital to come over, and after tormenting themselves for such a long time, Wang Rongwen finally found out. He came to the front hall to look for Wang Zhixi, and just happened to meet with the imperial physician who was prescribing the medicine.
The imperial physician who had arrived was dressed in green, and there was no need for him to show his face. It could be seen that he was a newcomer who had just entered the Imperial Hospital.
"Imperial Physician, is there anything else we need to pay attention to about her sickness?" Wang Rong asked.
"There's nothing to be concerned about. I can't help but get excited when I feel like it. As long as I can get over it, it's fine." With that, the imperial physician left in a hurry.
Zhou Yuting cast a glance at one of the Imperial Consort Candidate s and said, "Wang Rong and her, Wang Zhixi is your sister. Now that she's sick, I don't know when it's better for her, in order to not let others take care of her. Furthermore, there are fewer people at the rear of the palace, so the care of others can't even compare to that of my sister.
"There are now more people in the rear palace than in the front palace." Wang Rong He said.
"But since you don't want her here, I'll take her away." Wang Rong He said that she had called Xi Tao over and asked her to go to the rear hall to prepare some things. When Xi Tao was done, she would go with her aunt and call a few strong eunuchs to help him move Wang Zhixi to the rear hall.
The rear hall servant Wang Rong had told him to empty a space in the West Branch Hall to accommodate Wang Zhixi. The original occupants of the palace all found their own companions and squeezed together with them.
No one objected to what Wang Rongzhi was about to do in the rear palace. Wang Rong He wasn't someone who didn't know how to behave, so he took out two pieces of jewelry and gave it to the person that was moving the bed. "Sorry for the inconvenience, little sister."
"It's fine." The Imperial Consort Candidate said, "In the palace, who can guarantee that they won't be troubled? If they are as heartless and unjust as the Imperial Consort Candidate in front, then the palace will be even colder."
"Good sister." Wang Rong said, "Elder sister will remember your kindness."
Fangruo helped Wang Zhixi boil the medicine. Even when Wang Zhixi drank the medicine, she didn't feel as hard about it as Wang Rong and the others, but the high fever never stopped. Wang Rong looked at him a few times, but Wang Zhixi still couldn't clear her head and spoke nonsense.
"That won't do, we have to get the imperial physician to come and take another look." Wang Rong He said, "People keep burning like this, it will burn out."
Fangruo had a bitter face, "This servant will also go find Aunt, and Aunt will go look for Imperial Hospital, but Imperial Hospital said that no one has the time to come over."
"How could that be?" Although she wasn't clear when she was sick and in a coma, Yang Jingru and Xi Tao had said before that the imperial physician came over every day.
"Then what about that imperial physician who treated me last time? Would it be possible to invite him? " Wang Rong He said.
"Every single time, aunty would send someone to visit Imperial Hospital. May I know which imperial physician Miss is referring to?" Fangruo said.
"I want Xi Tao to make a trip to the Imperial Hospital." Wang Rong He said.
Xi Tao went to the Imperial Hospital and did not invite Imperial Physician Xu over, but she had also invited an old doctor with a head full of white hair over. Looking at his official's uniform, his level was higher than the previous one.
Wang Rong greeted the imperial physician, who cupped his hands in greeting. Unless instructed by His Majesty, the Imperial Physician Xu that the lady wishes to invite will not treat anyone other than Her Majesty. Seeing that Xi Tao is the one who came to invite you, let this old one take his place, please don't blame this miss. "
"No. It's just that I don't know the level of the Imperial Physician Xu s. "Many thanks to the old imperial physician for coming in during her busy time. She's really my younger sister, and even after drinking the medicine she still hasn't recovered from the fever. I've been worried about her for the past three days."
"Let's wait for this old man to take his pulse." "The old imperial physician said that he had touched Wang Zhixi's pulse." This young lady's body is filled with anxiety and depression, which is why she has such a high fever. Now that the medicine is useless, if young lady agrees, this old one will let her have some blood. "
"Just do as the imperial physician says." Wang Rong He said. There's no other way now, and we can only rely on the imperial physician. "
The old lady used the warm water handkerchief to warm Wang Zhixi's hands, and the small golden needle quickly pierced through her ten fingertips. After squeezing out some blood, she covered Wang Zhixi's hands with the handkerchief.
After bleeding for an hour, Wang Zhixi's body temperature had started to drop. The imperial physician changed the prescription and told the palace maid to fry the meat, "This sickness arises from the heart, wait until this lady has woken up, then come to the conclusion that everything will be fine. If this young lady can find a Nine Revolutions Pure Heart Pill for her to consume, it would be even more so as nothing will harm her. "
"May I ask the imperial physician, what is this Nine Revolutions Pure Heart Pill?" Where can we find it? " Wang Rong asked.
The Nine Revolutions Pure Heart Pill is a pill refined by a Daoist in the late emperor. It clears the heart, dissolves phlegm, dispels wind, and is used to heat the heart and build up phlegm and fire. Because of the importance of medication, the Qingxin pill's efficacy is stronger than normal and has no side effects. "" No, no. "However, since the previous Emperor had gone, all the priests in the palace were dismissed from the palace, and no one else in the palace is capable of refining this pill anymore, there should still be some stock in the palace." "The old imperial physician said that this was the young lady that His Majesty had instructed Xu Du Zhong to visit before. It wouldn't be difficult for her to ask His Majesty for a Nine Revolutions Pure Heart Pill.
"Thank you, Imperial Physician." Wang Rong said, "But I'll have to trouble Imperial Physician to prescribe some ordinary Heart Cleansing Pills and see if my little sister will have any effect on them."
"That lady is full of anger; otherwise, she wouldn't have been so feverish for so many days. Ordinary Heart Cleansing Pills would be useless, but since Miss has requested it, this old man will give her a few pills, one pill a day." said the old doctor.
"Thank you, old Imperial Physician." Wang Rong He said.
Wang Zhixi's fever seemed to have subsided, but before Wang Rong could even be happy, it returned back to normal. After drinking the medicine, in less than four hours, it started to heat up again and again, almost to the point of being exhausted.
Liu Jing looked at Wang Rong and said, "There have been consecutive changes, big sister has lost weight, it really makes one's heart ache looking at it."
"Smell this medicine, it's not good to eat." Wang Rong He said, "It shouldn't affect the other sisters right? If it does, then little sister will help me apologize. After Wang Zhixi is done, I will arrange a table for everyone to thank."
"Why are you thanking them? You didn't even help your elder sister with her worries. Everyday, you eat your elder sister's meals, and you're extremely happy." Liu Jing said, "Big sister is always so sincere, when big sister is sick, I don't think this little sister is so concerned about big sister."
"What else can we do? "Don't tell me I'm going to watch her die." Wang Ronghe said, "Dad should know at home that it's time to be sad. If I don't care about her, how can I not care about my father? "
"I wish I were your sister." Liu Jing said.
"You are my sister now." Wang Rong said with a smile.
Wang Zhixi was not completely unconscious at the moment, and was awake for several hours every day. She knew that it was only Wang Rong who took care of her and that she had changed places.
Grandmother was right. In the end, she was still her biological sister. She didn't treat Wang Rong well, but Wang Rong treated her well. Wang Zhixi's tears also flowed down from the corners of her eyes. If she was alright, she would definitely repay her well. Mother's grudge was a matter of the previous generation. She and Wang Rong were sisters, it was her in the past.
Now that Wang Rong was taking care of Wang Zhixi, when he used a handkerchief to wipe her face and saw the tears at the corner of her eyes, he couldn't help but be startled. Xi Tao, go and tell An De that I want a ball of Nine Revolutions Pure Heart Pill. " An Lun would naturally help her move to that person's side. Whether she gave it or not depended on him.
In the end, she still had to ask for his help.
Who else could she turn to but him?
She only hoped that Zhu Yijun would not be stingy with regards to this matter, and if there were any conditions, she would agree to them all.
