Nangong Shuangshuang did not intend to completely heal Lady Jing's scars. Of course, it's not that Nangong Shuangshuang couldn't do it, but rather that a burn wound that doesn't grow excessively in this era is already a miracle.
If there were no scars at all, it would be too much, and the scars on Lady Jing's body could constantly remind the Emperor of what she sacrificed for him.
Lady Jing's wounds took a full three months to heal completely. The burned areas were darkened and slightly raised, resembling a dark birthmark, which looked quite unsightly. Now, in the height of summer, these scars are especially noticeable after wearing some light summer clothes.
Because Lady Jing was credited with saving the Emperor's life, once her wounds healed completely, the Emperor directly promoted her to Noble Consort, the first of the First Rank Four Concubines. In fact, the Emperor wanted to make her an Imperial Concubine, but doing so would make his intentions too obvious.
