"Your Highness, please pull yourself together, I beg you!"
Noble Concubine Shih's eyes were filled with tears, her heart ached as if it were being torn apart.
She closed her eyes, tilted her head back, trying hard not to let the tears fall.
After quite a while, she finally opened her eyes.
But the sorrow that had been there was gone.
Instead, they were filled with hatred, determination, and cruelty.
"The medicine?"
The two words were uttered through gritted teeth, firm and unwavering.
Ying Qiu was stunned for a moment, then quickly reacted, her face filled with joy.
"Yes, yes, I'll go heat it up for you immediately!"
After speaking, she quickly got up from the ground and hurried out.
In the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the medicine was heated.
Noble Concubine Shih resolutely picked up the bowl and drank it all in one go.
"Serve the meal? I want to dine!"
"Yes! I'll go right away!" Ying Qiu's voice trembled with excitement.
In no time at all.
