Crossing the Palace Fighting Fox Harem

Could it be that Princess Tianning came here specially to bring me medicine?

Humph, she is not so kind. She probably wants to see my face twisted by the bitterness of the medicine, right? Or maybe she put some medicine in the soup that will make me dizzy or vomit and have diarrhea. Thinking of this, Ji Anni immediately became alert and pointed at the bowl of soup that was still steaming and asked, "Princess, what do you mean by this?"

Tian Ning smiled and said, "What's the point of this? Of course I'm here to urge you to take the medicine."

"Thank you for your kindness, Princess, but Zhaoji is not a child of seven or eight years old. She does not need anyone to supervise her to take medicine. Princess, you are busy with your work. You don't need to waste your precious time for Zhaoji. Zhaoji will send you back now." Ji Anni tried her best to force a smile. She only wanted to send Princess Tianning, the plague god, away as soon as possible, and then pour out the bowl of medicine of unknown origin.

"My brother said that you have forgotten what happened outside the palace, so I specially ordered the Imperial Hospital to make a bowl of medicine for you to calm your mind and nourish your body. Although it cannot help you recover your memory, it can at least help you calm your mind and not get angry easily, which is very harmful to your body." After saying this, she glanced at a palace maid behind her and ordered, "Hua Rong, bring the medicine over and let Concubine Zhao drink it."

Hua Rong responded, picked up the medicine on the table and walked towards Ji Anni.

Ji Anni hurriedly took two steps back and declared to Princess Tianning: "I, I won't drink the medicine you gave me."

"Why don't you drink the medicine I gave you? Do you think I would poison it?" Princess Tianning raised her voice a little, with a hint of anger. After glaring at Ji Anni, she muttered, "You really don't know how to appreciate kindness."

Seeing Tian Ning's expression as if he was wronged, Ji Anni really felt a little guilty. She lowered her head and glanced at the bowl of medicine that Hua Rong brought to her, but still couldn't make up her mind to drink it.

"Are you going to drink it or not?" Tian Ning slammed the table angrily, as if she would send someone to force Ji Anni to drink if she didn't drink it.

Ji Anni was also frightened by Tian Ning's sudden anger and shrugged her shoulders.

How could there be such a person? Not only did he enter her room without permission, but he also forced her to drink medicine... This princess is really too much. Ji Anni has been in a bad mood recently, and she was worried that she had no chance to vent. Now that Tian Ning was so angry, it was even more difficult for her to control her emotions.

She pointed at Princess Tianning and was about to start to refute, but she heard the silent and quiet little palace maid Huarong whispered: "Your Majesty, just drink the medicine. This is the princess's good intention. The princess went to the Imperial Hospital in person today to find the best imperial physician to prescribe the medicine, and then went to the Imperial Pharmacy to get the medicine in person, and personally supervised the eunuch to boil the medicine, just to prevent anyone from having the opportunity to poison the medicine. The princess came here to deliver the medicine today for you, Concubine Zhao."

"What?" Hua Rong's words sounded like myths and legends to Ji Anni.

Princess Tianning actually cared so much about me? Wasn't she only good to her brother Xiaorong? When did she start caring about me too?

"Princess Zhao Congfei, please drink the medicine." Hua Rong said as she brought the medicine bowl closer to Ji Anni.

This time, Ji Anni did not dodge, but subconsciously took the medicine that Hua Rong brought to her.

Looking at the dark potion that night and smelling the unpleasant bitter taste, Ji Anni really didn't want to drink it. She held the medicine bowl and looked at Tian Ning. Tian Ning turned his head away and ignored her.

So Ji Anni looked at the beautiful face in front of her again and asked, "Is what you just said true?"

Huarong replied softly, "Every word I said is true. I never dare to lie to my master."

Strangely enough, although Ji Anni still had considerable doubts about Princess Tianning's character, she actually trusted the little maid named Huarong.

Because she still remembered that when she was punished by Tian Ning to hold a teacup in Renhe Hall, it was this little maid who said a lot to her. She said that she had the potential to be a queen and was willing to serve her. It was really strange. She obviously already had Tian Ning, a princess who was like a little queen mother, as her master. Why did she still spend time trying to win the heart of a little concubine like herself?

"Empress?" Hua Rong called softly.

Ji Anni then realized that she had been staring at Hua Rong and had been lost in thought. She quickly retracted her gaze and stared solemnly at the bowl of medicine in her hand. She took a deep breath and told herself: Isn't it just a bowl of medicine? Even if Tian Ning was bold, she couldn't poison herself so blatantly, right? Besides, after hearing Hua Rong speak so sincerely, Ji Anni temporarily believed that Princess Tian Ning had good intentions.

Ji Anni closed her eyes, held the bowl in one hand, pinched her nose with the other hand, and tilted her neck back. After a few "gulps", the whole bowl of yellow soup was swallowed by Ji Anni.

It's so bitter... Ji Anni's eyes and nose wrinkled into a ball. She stuffed the medicine bowl into Hua Rong's hand, rushed forward a few steps, rushed to Princess Tianning and said, "You saw it all, right? I drank the medicine. Okay, now you can go, right?"

Princess Tianning looked at the medicine bowl in Huarong's hand, and after confirming that Ji Anni had indeed drunk every drop, she smiled with satisfaction and said, "Then I will not disturb you today, but I will come here to give you medicine at this time tomorrow, so don't run around like you did today."

"What? You're coming tomorrow?" Ji Anni hurriedly made an excuse for herself, "I have to go to Renhe Hall tomorrow."

"You don't have to go." Princess Tianning announced domineeringly, "I have already talked to Yanniang, and she agreed that I will give you private lessons in the future, so you don't have to go to Renhe Hall to study with other concubines anymore, just follow me."

"Oh my god..." Ji Anni really had the urge to jump into the well and commit suicide immediately. If she was asked to learn etiquette from this Princess Tianning from now on, it would be strange if she didn't want to live.

But Tian Ning was very proud to admire Ji Anni's face full of reluctance, and comforted her: "Don't worry, this princess is very reasonable. Not only did I promise to help Yan Niang train your etiquette, but I also promised to help my brother restore your memory. So before you become a dignified concubine, you must accept my guidance. Before you recover your memory, you must drink medicine every day."

"Princess, please let me go. What do you want to do? Tell me clearly and don't always do these weird things... I don't have the energy to guess your thoughts and tricks." Ji Anni really couldn't stand it anymore.

God knows what had happened to her that she had attracted the troublesome Princess Tianning.
