Chapter 1474: Unt.i.tled
“Master Chu, we’re running out of ideas here. Miss Feng Wu is our only hope.” Master Bai said anxiously. “Her Majesty won’t last much longer.”
Master Chu sighed. “In that case, go ahead.”
“Yes.” Master Bai dashed off after obtaining Master Chu’s permission.
The building which the crown prince was in was a restricted area. However, after Master Bai explained the empress dowager’s perilous situation, he was soon given permission to enter.
Inside, Feng Wu and Jun Linyuan were sitting opposite each other.
Feng Wu was in a fit of pique, and the crown prince looked equally angry. Neither of them were speaking to each other.
That was what Master Bai saw when he walked into the room.
To Master Bai’s astonishment, Feng Wu, the rumored little maid, was sitting opposite the crown prince like his equal. What was more, she was giving the crown prince att.i.tude!
That was unbelievable!
Jun Linyuan stared at Master Bai.
Master Bai didn’t dare delay, and he immediately got to the point. “Her Majesty the empress dowager isn’t feeling well. Miss Wu, help!”
Jun Linyuan frowned.
He was never an affectionate person, but he still cared about the empress dowager.
“What happened?” Jun Linyuan asked, his face darkening.
Master Bai repeated the diagnosis, then concluded, “Her Majesty was probably upset by what happened earlier today, hence the relapse.”
Jun Linyuan didn’t know what to say.
“Miss Feng Wu, please go have a look at the empress dowager. Otherwise, Her Majesty may not be able to survive.”
Jun Linyuan glanced at Feng Wu.
Feng Wu didn’t want to, because the empress dowager hadn’t exactly been nice to her, and she wasn’t one to hesitate to get revenge.
However —
Beggars couldn’t be choosers, and Feng Wu was fully aware of that.
If she turned a blind eye to the empress dowager, and she really died, the consequences would be very severe.
G.o.d really liked to play tricks on her.
Rubbing her numb temples, Feng Wu rose to her feet and said in resignation, “I’ll go with you and have a look.”
Elated, Master Bai immediately led the way.
Feng Wu walked past Jun Linyuan without saying a word.
In the empress dowager’s building.
Emperor Wu narrowed his eyes as soon as he saw Feng Wu.
Feng Wu had left a good impression on Emperor Wu. However, Jun Linyuan’s ambiguous att.i.tude toward Feng Wu made Emperor Wu involuntarily dislike her.
Seeing Feng Wu, Master Chu immediately said, “Miss Feng Wu’s skills are as good as mine. With her help, we’ll have a much better chance of curing Her Majesty.”
Emperor Wu stared at Feng Wu for a while and eventually nodded.
Master Chu was very relieved.
But —
To Master Chu’s surprise, while Emperor Wu gave his permission, the empress dowager didn’t!
“No! I won’t let that girl treat me! Get her out of here! Kick her out! I don’t want to see her! Go away!”
The empress dowager reacted very violently when she knew that Feng Wu was going to be her doctor.
Feng Wu frowned a little.
She didn’t like treating the empress dowager either. She was a supreme-level medicine refiner and was usually respected by everyone. But now, the old lady was so rude.
Feng Wu said coldly, “Your Majesty, you are indeed having a relapse. Not treating it won’t kill you, but it’ll do irreparable damage to your brain. It’s your decision.”
