"Imperial physician, imperial physician, imperial physician!" Xiao Ye walked out hurriedly. As soon as he reached the imperial physician's office, he met a palace maid coming from the other side.

"Imperial Physician, Imperial Physician Zhao! Come with me quickly! Concubine Zhaoyi is seriously ill!" As soon as Xiao Ye saw Imperial Physician Zhao, she reached out and grabbed him and refused to let go.

"Hey, hey, hey! Okay, Miss Xiaoye, let go of your hand first. Rongchen will go get the medicine box." Doctor Zhao picked up the medicine box and followed her out, but was stopped by a palace maid on the side.

"Doctor Zhao, my daughter is not feeling well. You should go and check on her first." The palace maid said as she glanced at Xiao Ye with contempt, as if she didn't take her seriously at all.

"My queen is seriously ill and is lying in bed right now. Your master is just feeling unwell. Which imperial physician can't go and see him?" Xiao Ye was anxious about Su Minglang's condition and didn't want to say much to her. She grabbed Imperial Physician Zhao's sleeve and was about to walk forward.

But the palace maid still blocked the two people's way and said, "How dare you! My daughter's body is precious, so she must be examined by the best imperial physician. You are just a little Zhaoyi, and you dare to compete with my daughter?"

"Girl? Who is your girl? In this palace, people don't address people by their names or their positions. What does it mean to just call her a girl?"

Xiao Ye glared at her angrily: "Besides, if we talk about first come first served, I was the first one to speak!"

"Who's talking about first come first served?" The maid sneered and glanced at her contemptuously: "My daughter's surname is Li. Is there another Miss Li in this palace?"

"Miss Li?" Xiao Ye took a moment to realize who the Miss Li she was talking about was. "She's just a wet nurse, and she calls herself a lady?"

Xiao Ye looked at her in disbelief, "My queen is a concubine after all, how dare you, a maidservant beside a wet nurse, block my way?"

"Doctor Zhao, ignore this lunatic and follow me!"

"No! You can't leave! Doctor Zhao, come with me to see my girl!" The palace maid did not want to be outdone and reached out to grab Doctor Zhao's sleeve, pulling him here and there, until the fifty-year-old doctor swayed from side to side and could not stand steadily.

"Wait, wait!" Doctor Zhao hastily withdrew his sleeves and looked at her apologetically. "Miss Xiaoye, I remember that I have some things to do. How about this, I find a doctor to go back with the girl?"

"Every doctor in the Imperial Hospital is an expert. They will definitely not delay the treatment of Concubine Zhaoyi."

"What are you talking about! My mother is seriously ill. If the treatment is delayed, can you bear the responsibility?"

Imperial Physician Zhao naturally knew that he was not capable of taking on the responsibility, but on one side was the emperor's favorite concubine, and on the other side was the emperor's sweetheart. Moreover, this sweetheart was pregnant with the emperor's son. He would know what to choose by picking anyone at random, right?

"She is just a little Zhaoyi. Moreover, I heard that your Su Zhaoyi is in bad health and can't even have children. Is such a woman worthy of seeing a doctor? Unlike my daughter, my daughter is..."

"Stop talking!" Doctor Zhao suddenly shouted and glared at the palace maid in panic. The palace maid then realized that she had said something wrong and stepped aside with her mouth closed.

"Miss Xiaoye, please go back and wait. I will send someone over right away." Doctor Zhao waved his hand with a cold face, turned around, picked up the medicine box and went back.

Xiao Ye opened his mouth to call him, but was blocked by the eunuchs on the side. He was helpless and could only go back.

Not long after Xiao Ye left, Doctor Zhao carried the medicine box and followed the palace maid towards the Taiji Palace.

"Nanxing? How is the master?" As soon as Xiao Ye entered the room, he saw Nanxing guarding Su Minglang diligently.

"I just wiped the master's body and he has already fallen asleep." Nan Xing looked up and replied, but saw that there was no one behind Xiao Ye and asked in confusion: "Sister Xiao Ye, where is the imperial physician?"

"The doctor will be here soon." Xiao Ye said nervously, but she was not sure if the doctor would come. "How is the master?"

"Fever, very severe fever!" Nan Xing looked at the sleeping person on the bed with some concern, "Why didn't the imperial physician come with you?"

"I originally met Doctor Zhao, but he was asked to leave by people around Li." Xiao Ye said coldly. Although she did not see Doctor Zhao leave with the palace maid with her own eyes, she could tell the difference by seeing the changes in his expression.

"Li? Why is it her again!" Nan Xing said angrily, "I don't know whether the master is His Majesty's concubine or Li is!"

"Just wait..." Xiao Ye's expression became increasingly heavy. The person lying on the bed seemed to have felt the heavy atmosphere in the room, and his relaxed brows were tightly furrowed.

Time passed by little by little. Nanxing and Xiaoye didn't know how many times they changed the water and wiped her body, but the heat in her body did not subside at all.

"No, I have to go to the Imperial Hospital again!" Xiao Ye stood up suddenly, with worry in his eyes. "No matter how busy the Imperial Hospital is, someone should come by now!"

"It's useless!" Nan Xing blocked her way and said sternly, "I want to see His Majesty."

"Are you crazy?" Xiao Ye held her hand tightly, "How can you just go and see the emperor?"

"What else can we do? The Imperial Hospital said they would send someone but there has been no response!" Nan Xing broke free from her hand and said angrily, "We can wait, but can the Empress wait? Even if we go again, what will happen? We will still be turned away!"

"That woman is always feeling unwell, and that disturbs everyone! Although I don't know why His Majesty attaches so much importance to her, as long as she feels a little uncomfortable, the Imperial Hospital will be mobilized!"

"Isn't it the same thing last time?" Nan Xing shouted excitedly, "Last time I was a palace maid, this time it's a Zhaoyi!"

"She, Li, is simply lawless!"

"Besides Your Majesty, who else can save Your Majesty's life?"

Xiao Ye was silent for a long time, then he let out a long breath, "Nan Xing, I'll go with you!"

"No!" Nan Xing rejected her without thinking, "Who will take care of the queen if you leave?"

"Aren't there Xiaoqing and Xiaohe? The queen is not alone with you and me." Xiao Ye said calmly: "After all, they are maids of Linglong Palace. If anything happens to the queen, they will be buried with her!"

Seeing that her face had completely turned cold, Nan Xing realized that there was no way he could persuade her, so he could only nod in agreement.

Xiao Ye looked back at the person sleeping restlessly on the bed, nodded slightly, leaned over to her ear and whispered, "My queen, hold on a little longer, just hold on a little longer!"

"Let's go, Nanxing!"
