Qi Mo came to Fanghua Palace with the medicine. Seeing him coming, Song Yao stood up and said, "Let's go."

"Yes." Qi Mo nodded, and the two went directly to the imperial study.

Soon, they arrived at the imperial study.

Xiao Chi was busy, and when he saw Song Yao coming and Qi Mo holding a bowl of medicine, he understood instantly.

Song Yao said, "Your Majesty, if you are sick, you must take medicine. That's for sure. Why are you hiding your illness and avoiding medical treatment? You know your illness is difficult to treat, but that's why you need to get treatment. Otherwise, if that day comes, what will happen to me? What will happen to the children?"

Xiao Chi frowned when he heard this, and stood up and walked to Song Yao, "Ayao, my illness cannot be cured. No matter what medicine I take, it's a waste of time!"

Song Yao said, "How can it be a waste? Look at Prince Wenxuan, his situation is the same as yours, and he doesn't have those symptoms now. No matter what, you have to try it!"

She looked at Qi Mo, "Doctor Qi, give him the medicine."

"Yes, Queen!" Qi Mo agreed and handed the medicine to Xiao Chi, "Your Majesty, drink it. This is good for you!"

Seeing that he was hesitant, Song Yao snorted coldly, "If you don't drink, then I will take the children and live outside the palace!"

Xiao Chi was stunned for a moment, and his brows furrowed even tighter.

But Song Yao was right. He couldn't hide his illness and avoid medical treatment just because it was a terminal illness.

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Chi took the medicine handed to him by Qi Mo and drank it.

He rarely takes medicine, but when he suddenly drank this medicine, it was so bitter that his brain seemed to be shutting down. It was really bitter.

Seeing that he had finished drinking, Song Yao's heart finally settled down. She asked, "Doctor Qi, should I take this medicine three times a day?"

Doctor Qi nodded, "Yes, Your Majesty, take the medicine three times a day."

"Okay! From now on, you will deliver the medicine to him on time every day. If he doesn't drink it, tell me!" Song Yao glanced at Xiao Chi with obvious threat in her eyes.

"Yes! I obey your command." Qi Mo said, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I will take my leave first."

After Qi Mo left, Xiao Chi came to sit behind the imperial desk, feeling a little unhappy. "Qi Mo, I told him not to tell you, but he didn't listen to me."

Song Yao looked at Xiao Chi, with obvious helplessness on her face, "Your Majesty, the disease you have is hereditary. Although it cannot be cured, the onset of the disease can be delayed. Perhaps you are lucky?"

"I never thought I was lucky!" Xiao Chi said, "Besides, I didn't tell you because I was afraid you would worry, so I didn't let him tell you."

"To be frank, if you die, I will be even more miserable. We still have two children. Do you want them to be fatherless from childhood? Your Majesty, no matter what the outcome, we must give it a try. Only by trying can there be hope!"

"Well, you're right!" Xiao Chi said, "I'm really sorry. Maybe one day I will... leave you forever. But even if I do, it won't matter. By then, you'll be the Empress Dowager, and no one in the world will bully or hurt you anymore."

Song Yao walked up to him in two or three steps, put out her hand to cover his mouth, and looked at him fiercely, "Why are you saying these words? Don't say them again!"

Xiao Chi grabbed her hand and held it tightly in his palm. "Ayao, compared to the children, I am most worried about you. If possible, on the day I die, I hope you will be the emperor of the Great Dynasty! Only when you become the emperor, no one will dare to bully you."

"I told you not to say that!" Song Yao was very angry. "Don't you know that people's mouths are very poisonous? Often good words don't work, but bad words do. You should maintain a positive and optimistic attitude now. Only with a good attitude can your illness recover quickly, understand? Also, don't say anything about death in the future, otherwise I will never let you go!"

I never thought that the person who was once paranoid and possessive would actually have a negative and depressed day.

Such emotions really don't match him.

Seeing that she was angry, Xiao Chi stopped talking.

But he also understood that even if he said nothing, that day would come sooner or later.

He really couldn't bear to part with Song Yao.

Song Yao wanted to share Xiao Chi's burden. After sitting next to him, she picked up a memorial and looked at it. "Does this need to be dealt with? You go and rest. I'll help you review the memorial."

Xiao Chi laughed, "Can you?"

Song Yao glanced at him and said, "Can you do it? Can you remove that "ma"? Although I'm not as capable as you, I can still handle some small things! You go and rest first, leave this to me."

"Okay." Xiao Chi stood up. "If you don't understand something, you can ask me, or wait for me to handle it."

"Okay!" Song Yao nodded.

Afterwards, Xiao Chi left the imperial study.

Xiao Chi has given so much for her, so naturally she should do something to help him. She can't just watch him work so hard every day.

In fact, most diseases are caused by fatigue. As long as you get enough rest and have a good attitude, you may not reach the point of death.

Song Yao finished reading the memorial in her hand.

This memorial was submitted by Lord Liu. It's nothing special. I just hope that Xiao Chi can send people to arrest the people from the Blood Mist Cult as soon as possible, and the matter of the late emperor must also be handled properly.

Song Yao wrote the word "read" and put the memorial aside, then continued to read other memorials.

I was so busy that I forgot about time.

Eunuch Cao walked up to her and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty, it's time for lunch."

Song Yao glanced at Eunuch Cao and said, "Then send someone to deliver lunch to the imperial study."

"Yes." Eunuch Cao continued, "Your Majesty, you have been reading the memorials for so long, why not take a rest first?"

"I understand. Go ahead." Song Yao didn't look at him and continued to read the memorial in her hand.

"Yes!" Eunuch Cao bowed and left the imperial study.

Song Yao did not go to rest. She waited until lunch was served before she got up to eat.

After lunch, Song Yao stretched her muscles outside the imperial study, and then she saw Shen Yibai coming.

She had only seen Shen Yibai on the day she and Xiao Chi got married, and she hadn't seen him since then. She didn't know why he came to see Xiao Chi today.

After a while, Shen Yibai came in front of Song Yao.

Shen Yibai bowed and said, "Your Highness, I pay my respects to the Empress."

"Sir Shen, please excuse me." Song Yao said, "What do you want to see the emperor about?"

Shen Yibai finally stood up and looked at Song Yao and said, "Empress, I have something to tell the Emperor. Is the Emperor in there?"

Song Yao shook her head. "The emperor is not feeling well and has gone to rest. You can tell me if you have anything to say."

Then, Song Yao turned and entered the imperial study.

Shen Yibai followed in.

When Shen Yibai entered the imperial study and saw Song Yao sitting on the chair behind the imperial desk, he knew that Xiao Chi was really unwell and went to rest.
