Since they are all worn by the Qing Dynasty, you might as well be bold and choose Kangxi!

"Why are you here with me instead of copying the palace rules in your room?" Shi Rongyue looked at Suocho and Luo Jiahui with a wary look on her face.

When Socho Luo Jiahui heard the words "copying palace rules", a hint of anger flashed across her eyes, but then she thought of the news she had just received.

The anger immediately dissipated, and he picked up the handkerchief to cover his lips and chuckled:

"Look at what Da Gege Shi said. Didn't I just say that I heard that Er Gege Shi caught a cold after being caught in the rain, so I came to visit Er Gege Shi."

"Yes, how is Shi Ergege now?" Li Jiaming walked to the bedside and looked at Shi Nanxi with concern, then exclaimed:

"Oh, why is my sister crying? Her eyes are swollen!"

Hearing this, Suochu Luo Jiahui immediately left Shi Rongyue and walked over. As expected, she saw Shi Nanxi with red and swollen eyes, and immediately started shouting:

"Oh my god! What's going on? Could it be that he was scolded by Princess Shi?"

He deliberately advised Shi Rongyue:

"Isn't the eldest princess famous for her friendly sisterhood? Even if the second princess did something wrong or offended someone and implicated the eldest princess, should you forgive her for the fact that she is weak and got caught in the rain?"

Shi Rongyue was so angry that she was shaking all over. She had never forgiven Shi Nanxi for anything that had happened to Guan Suochao and Luo Jiahui!

At this time, Shi Nanxi lowered her head, covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and sobbed in fear:

"Wow, wow, this has nothing to do with my elder sister. It's all because of my stupidity that I got my elder sister into trouble..."

"That's right!" Upon hearing this, Shi Rongyue immediately responded, "Besides, I came back first, how would I know that Changchun Palace didn't give my second sister an umbrella and let her come back in the rain."

Socho Luo Jiahui didn't care about all this. When the Empress Dowager asked her to rewrite the palace rules, Shi Rongyue went to her room to ridicule her. Naturally, she had to return the favor now.

After that, the two of them fought back and forth, but this time it was Socho Luo Jiahui who gained the upper hand, and Shi Rongyue was so angry that his face turned blue.

Shi Nanxi leaned against the bed, her face flushed with fever, anxious and self-blaming, until Hongying came back with the medicine, Shi Rongyue immediately found an excuse:

"My second sister needs to take medicine, so I won't keep you two any longer. Please go back!"

Suochuo Luo Jiahui glanced at the box of medicine and knew that Doctor Jiang had not done what he had asked, but...

She glanced at Shi Rongyue, who was at a disadvantage for the first time, and curled the corners of her mouth.

Since Shi Nanxi did not win the favor of Concubine Ping, but instead offended her and even implicated Shi Rongyue, it would be better to keep Shi Nanxi for the time being and let her continue to drag down Shi Rongyue.

"Then take good care of yourself, Second Princess. I will come to see you again when I have time!" After saying that, she left with Li Jiamingxiu in a proud manner.

Shi Rongyue saw that he had no place to vent his anger, and smelled the strong smell of bitter medicine in the house. He became annoyed and turned around and slammed the door and walked out without saying a word.

Zixia, who was kicked out of the door, hurriedly followed.

In the end, only Shi Nanxi and his servant were left in the house.

"Second Princess, are you okay?"

Hongying walked forward with the medicine and saw Shi Nanxi's red and swollen eyes, with a worried look on her face.

Shi Nanxi shook her head slightly and turned to look at the medicine emitting white mist. Upon seeing this, Hongying whispered everything that happened in the Imperial Hospital to Shi Nanxi.

After listening to this, Shi Nanxi nodded, as long as the medicine was fine. Then she took the medicine and gently scooped it out with a spoon while thinking.

Judging from Suochao Luo Jiahui's reaction just now, he probably gave up tampering with her medicine for the time being. However, her health is the top priority, and she cannot expect others to give up temporarily. She must find a chance to get rid of Doctor Jiang, this minion.

And the task of picking Buddha beans must be put off as soon as possible before I recover from my illness.

Finally, there is the matter of the prince’s birthday ceremony.

She believed that it would not be difficult for Shi Rongyue from modern times to make a gift that could amaze the people of the Qing Dynasty, so she had to stop it.

But from what the other party just said, he was afraid that he would be in control of the whole process this time, and it would be difficult for her to find an opportunity to replace him. Moreover, replacing him was the worst option. In that case, Shi Rongyue would most likely suspect her. What did she think of at this moment?

A faint smile appeared on Shi Nanxi's face. She couldn't change, but someone could. After today, she believed that Concubine Ping would be even more angry with her.

After sorting out everything, she looked at the medicine, which was almost cold. She picked it up and drank it in one gulp without any change of expression.

Hongying quickly took the empty bowl and handed over a Weishan candied fruit.

Shi Nanxi took it but didn't eat it. Instead, she held it in her hand and continued to think. After Hongying had cleaned up everything, she called her over.

"Hongying, I have something for you to do."

"Just go ahead, Second Princess." Hongying is now very convinced of the Second Princess.

Shi Nanxi whispered to her for a while, but Hongying didn't quite understand what he heard.

"Second Princess, you are ill with a cold and asked me to go to the Empress tomorrow morning to apologize for declining the job of picking Buddha beans. I understand, but why did you also tell the people in Changchun Palace that the eldest princess had prepared a special gift for you to give to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?"

In her opinion, this was a good thing for the eldest princess to gain face in front of the prince for the second princess in order to gain a good future. How could she reveal this to the people in Changchun Palace?

Upon hearing this, Shi Nanxi suddenly raised her eyes and looked at Hongying:

"Hongying, do you really think that everything my elder sister does is for my own good?"

Hongying was stunned. She felt that the way Erge said this was a little different from usual, but she couldn't tell what was different.

However, the Second Princess' words reminded her of the various scenes she had seen of the First Princess treating the Second Princess when she was serving her personally these days.

Sometimes she actually felt that the eldest princess was a little bossy to the second princess, often speaking in an imperative manner and getting impatient and angry at the slightest provocation.

But sometimes I feel that the eldest princess is always considering the second princess, and I am at a loss to answer this question.

Shi Nanxi saw Hongying's tangle, she lowered her eyelashes and said softly:

"Hongying, I have lived in the manor since I was a child and I am not familiar with my elder sister at all."

Hongying was stunned when these words came out. They didn't seem familiar at all. Then...

Thinking of what she had seen in the palace, where sisters seemed to be good friends on the surface but were actually scheming against each other behind their backs, Hongying began to understand a little.

Seeing that she understood, Shi Nanxi spoke again:

"So Hongying, sometimes what seems to be done for your own good may not really be for your own good."

This was the first time that she revealed a little bit about her true relationship with Shi Rongyue in front of Hongying.

Hongying nodded solemnly after listening to this. The atmosphere suddenly became solemn. At this moment, Shi Nanxi suddenly handed the candied fruit in her hand to Hongying.

"Second Princess?" Hongying understood a little, but didn't dare to answer.

Shi Nanxi took her hand and spread it open, put the candied fruit in her palm, and said with a smile:

"Go ahead, this is my reward for you. Don't be too nervous. Eat something sweet and relax."

Hongying heard the words and looked at the Weishan candied fruit in her palm. She held it carefully like a treasure. After a while, she gently put it into her mouth. The sweet and soft taste immediately filled her mouth. She couldn't help but murmured:

"I never thought that I would be able to eat the tribute of Weishan candied fruit in this lifetime. If my mother knew, I wonder how happy she would be?"

Shi Nanxi knew her mother's situation and said nothing, saying that she would help when she was able to. Now, in order to dispel Hongying's disappointment, she calmly changed the subject.

Finally, the two of them were chatting and somehow talked about what the doctors in the Imperial Medical Bureau did on a daily basis besides being on duty. Hongying's words caught Shi Nanxi's attention.

It turns out that medical assistants are not imperial physicians and can only diagnose the pulses of low-ranking ladies. They have low salaries and heavy work. In addition to currying favor with the imperial physicians in order to get promoted, they also lend money to the eunuchs and palace maids and make money by charging high interest from them.

Doctor Jiang was no exception. This was against the palace rules. Shi Nanxi immediately had an idea, but she was not familiar with the palace and was afraid of having unrealistic ideas, so she asked Hongying for her opinion.

Hongying's eyes lit up at first, then she said with some embarrassment:

"Er Gege's idea is good, but these people operate at different times and places each time, and they are very careful and secretive. Unless we catch them red-handed, it will be difficult to convict them without evidence and with someone above them."

Shi Nanxi listened thoughtfully:

"I understand catching thieves and taking stolen goods, but once you do it, there will be traces left. As long as you find the opportunity, I don't believe you can't catch him."

"I will obey your orders."
