Yuchi Xiu dodged in time and was almost shot into a one-eyed man by the hidden weapon!

“No kidding? You’re serious! You’re murdering a

Halfway through, Yuchi Xiu felt that something was wrong and stopped in time. He was so angry that he imitated Xiaohu’s words. “Acting guard!” Wei Ting took out a second hidden weapon. “My left hand is not very accurate.”

“You almost shot me blind. Were you trying to cut me open on the spot?”

Yuchi Xiu couldn’t afford to offend him.

He went off.

He decisively went to look for Su Cheng.

Wei Ting snorted calmly.

Yuchi Xiu resigned himself to fate and turned back to fill in the tiles.

Su Xiaoxiao had a good sleep.

When she woke up the next day, Bai Xihe had already left.

Wei Ting and Su Cheng also got up.

Last night, not only did he compete with Biwu and practice his skills, but he also discussed the art of war with Yuchi Xiu and trained his intelligence.

The two of them were very happy!

“Daughter, you’re up?” Su Cheng retracted his half-finished fist technique.

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Dad, you’re so early?”

Su Cheng scratched his head. “I’ve been waking up early recently. By the way, Madam Bai said that she was leaving first.”

Su Xiaoxiao nodded. “Oh, got it.”

Su Cheng was puzzled. “She gets sick every other day and always comes for consultation alone. Where’s her family? Where’s her husband?”

“She…” Su Xiaoxiao couldn’t tell her father that Bai Xihe was the Grand Empress Dowager, so she could only say, “Her husband passed away.”

“Ah.” Su Cheng could not continue.

After breakfast, Su Xiaoxiao entered the palace to do a follow-up for the Empress Dowager.

Because she had become a physician of the Yongshou Palace, she had successfully skipped class from the palace. She suddenly felt that it was not bad to treat the Empress Dowager.

Princess Jingning and Princess Hui An came in the morning and were sent to the palace to attend classes by the Empress Dowager.

There was no other reason. Princess Hui An fought with Princess Jingning whenever she saw her. The Empress Dowager had a headache from the commotion. Fortunately, what somebody couldn’t know or see couldn’t hurt them.

Su Xiaoxiao took the Empress Dowager’s pulse.

The Empress Dowager’s illness was accumulated over time. As the saying went, illness came and went like a mountain collapsing. The Empress Dowager’s illness could not be rushed. If the medicine was too strong, it would easily destroy her body.

Su Xiaoxiao’s treatment plan for the Empress Dowager was to detox before nourishment. It was not about inducing diarrhea, but to remove the liver fire, clear the blockage in her body, and nourish it bit by bit.

She might have been in a relatively weak state for the past few days, but the quality of sleep and appetite would improve.

“Did the Empress Dowager sleep well last night?” Su Xiaoxiao asked.

Such words were naturally answered by the eunuch in charge.

The eunuch in charge said politely, “It’s similar to the night before. She slept for nearly six hours. When she woke up, she said that she was hungry.”

Su Xiaoxiao nodded. “What did the Empress Dowager eat last night and this morning?”

The eunuch in charge said, “She ate half a bowl of barley porridge last night and a bowl of silver fungus soup this morning. She couldn’t eat so much in the past. ”

The Empress Dowager had been ill for a long time and did not have a good appetite. Her digestive function had decreased, and she felt bloated after taking a few bites.

Thinking of something, the eunuch in charge smiled and asked, “Physician Su, do you still have the medicinal cuisine from yesterday?”

“Yes.” Su Xiaoxiao pointed outside. ‘Your people took it for a poison test.”

The items that entered the Empress Dowager’s mouth had to be tested with silver needles before a special eunuch tested the poison himself. Only then could they be sent to the Empress Dowager.

The same went for medicine.

The eunuch in charge smiled and said, “Physician Suls medical skills are brilliant. I didn’t expect your culinary skills to be so good. The Empress

Dowager is very happy…’

The Empress Dowager glared coldly at the eunuch in charge.

The eunuch in charge lowered his head resentfully.

Not long after, Emperor Jing Xuan arrived.

He had brought Hu Jiusheng to take the Empress Dowager’s pulse.

There’s no nees.

The Empress Dowager said impatiently, “One physician is already annoying enough. Do you want to annoy me to death with another?”

Emperor Jingxuan glanced at Su Xiaoxiao. “If Mother doesn’t like Physician

SCI…”

The Empress Dowager said calmly, “Well? Can the Imperial Hospital treat me?” Emperor Jing Xuan choked.

The Empress Dowager blamed him for killing King Nanyang’s family and kept going against him on everything. If he didn’t like it, the Empress Dowager insisted on keeping it. If he liked someone, the Empress Dowager wouldn’t give him any respect.

Emperor Jing Xuan was no longer surprised.

He didn’t think that the Empress Dowager was biased towards Su Xiaoxiao. She was most likely taking this opportunity to embarrass him. “Empress Dowager, the medicine is ready.”

A little palace maid served the steaming medicine.

Hu Jiusheng frowned. “Is the Empress Dowager drinking medicine? But… there’s no record of the Imperial Hospital making medicine. May I ask Eunuch Cheng where these medicine came from?”

The eunuch in charge glanced at Su Xiaoxiao and said, “I got it from Doctor Su’s medical center.”

“What? The herbs outside the palace?” Hu Jiusheng was very surprised. “If you want to get the herbs, why do you have to go so far? Could it be that the herbs outside the palace are better than those in the Imperial Hospital?”

“Bring it over!”

The Empress Dowager was so annoyed by these people that she took the medicine bowl in her hand and finished it without leaving a single drop.

Emperor Jing Xuan and Hu Jiusheng were dumbfounded.

How difficult was it to feed the Empress Dowager medicine in the past? He wished he could open her mouth and pour it in.

What kind of bewitching technique did this girl use to make the Empress Dowager take the initiative to drink the medicine? Su Xiaoxiao said, “I’ll give you acupuncture later.”

The Empress Dowager agreed calmly. “Yes.”

Hu Jiusheng gasped.

Had he heard wrongly?

The Empress Dowager hated needles the most!

She had never cooperated with any imperial physician like this—

The Empress Dowager asked casually, “Doesn’t the Emperor have to deal with the court affairs or review the memorials?”

Emperor Jingxuan said with a complicated expression, “Mother, rest well. I’ll come over later.”

Emperor Jing Xuan left with Hu Jiusheng.

Su Xiaoxiao opened the medicine box and took out the silver needles. The Empress Dowager said, “Girl, do you hate that imperial physician very much?”

“Did I make it obvious?”

She had not said a word just now.

“Hmph.” The Empress Dowager took the tea from the palace maid and rinsed her mouth. “If I don’t even have such judgment, how could I have become the

Empress Dowager?”

Su Xiaoxiao thought of Bai Xihe. The women in the harem were not simple.

To think that she had thought that Bai Xihe was an innocent deer the first two times. Last night, she realized that she was a cunning fox.

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Oh.”

There was nothing else.

Ordinary people would not miss such a good opportunity.

How could Su Xiaoxiao not know that this was a good opportunity to suppress Hu Jiusheng?

Moreover, the Empress Dowager had taken the initiative to mention this. Since the Empress Dowager asked, she was giving Su Xiaoxiao a ladder. It was not a big deal for Su Xiaoxiao to climb up the ladder.

However, Su Xiaoxiao had a bigger goal in her heart.

The Empress Dowager’s favor was very precious. It was not worth it to waste it on Hu Jiusheng.

The Empress Dowager instantly understood.

Having nothing to ask for was the greatest request.

She suddenly had an ominous feeling.

This girl was going to cause a huge mess in the future and let her clean up the aftermath—

Su Xiaoxiao raised the silver needle and smiled.. “Empress Dowager, it’s time for the needle!”
