In Changle Palace, Princess Fengyang sat motionless on the couch, staring blankly at a small black pill in her hand.
In three days, I will go to the Kingdom of Yue to marry a princess. I can't hesitate any longer.
"Princess, please think twice," Qingyan said, still making a final effort. "If the Emperor discovers the truth, he will surely be furious. I'm afraid then..."
"I have already made arrangements with Doctor Sun, and he will keep the secret for me." Princess Fengyang said without raising her head, her eyes still fixed on the small pill in her hand.
"Princess, I'm afraid of what might happen..." Qingyan still refused to give up.
"I have said that there is no such thing as a one-time event," Princess Fengyang raised her head and said to Qingyan with a sharp look in her eyes.
"Yes, I know I was wrong." Qingyan was frightened by Princess Fengyang's eyes. She hurriedly lowered her head to admit her mistake and dared not say anything to persuade her anymore.
After lowering her head and staring at the small pill for a while, Princess Fengyang raised her head again, looked at Qingyan and said, "After I take the medicine, you will do as I tell you. Got it?"
"Yes, I understand," Qingyan agreed resignedly.
In the Yanghe Palace, Emperor Qingyuan talked with Empress Xiao for a while, and then ordered someone to call Princess Jing'an over.
"Jing'an, I just discussed this with your mother," Emperor Qingyuan said, looking at Princess Jing'an standing below. "You are not young anymore. Three days later, when Fengyang goes to the Kingdom of Yue, I will work with your mother to choose a good husband for you so that you can get married as soon as possible."
"Your Majesty, Mother..." Princess Jing'an thought for a moment and said, "I don't want to get married now."
"Why is that?" Empress Xiao asked anxiously, "Jing'an, you are already not young anymore, and now that your appearance has been restored, you must hurry up. In two years, you will be too old to find an unmarried young man suitable for you in the capital."
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, before I recovered my appearance, I never thought about getting married. Now that you ask me to get married, I can't accept it for the time being," Princess Jing'an said, biting her lip.
"Jing'an, don't worry. Now that your appearance has recovered, you can choose any young man of marriageable age in the capital," said Queen Xiao.
When Empress Xiao thought about the cold treatment her daughter had received over the years because of her birthmark, she felt very sorry for her daughter and was determined to find a satisfactory husband for Princess Jing'an.
"Yes, yes," Emperor Qingyuan also said, "After three days, when Fengyang goes to the Kingdom of Yue, I will have the Imperial Household Department prepare a palace banquet and invite all the young men of marriageable age in the capital to attend. Then you can personally choose someone who suits your taste, and your father will grant you marriage."
"Father, Mother..." Princess Jing'an was about to say something else when Emperor Qingyuan stopped her, "Jing'an, you've been neglected a lot in recent years because of your appearance. Now, Father will make it up to you. Don't refuse marriage anymore. Your mother and I will arrange everything for you."
"Father, Mother..." Princess Jing'an was about to say something else when a eunuch hurried in from the palace entrance and reported, "Your Majesty, Empress Dowager, someone from Changle Palace just reported that Princess Fengyang has developed a rash on her face for some unknown reason."
"What?" Emperor Qingyuan and Empress Xiao were both shocked. In three days, Princess Fengyang would go to the Kingdom of Yue to marry. If something like this happened now, it would only cause more trouble.
"Let's go and take a look." Emperor Qingyuan suddenly stood up from the dragon throne and strode out of the palace. Empress Xiao also hurriedly followed him.
"You go over there too," Emperor Qingyuan suddenly turned around and said to Princess Jing'an when they reached the palace gate.
Helpless, Princess Jing'an had to follow.
The group arrived at Changle Palace. In the courtyard, the palace maids, maids, and eunuchs were so frightened when they saw that the emperor and the empress had arrived that they all knelt on the ground.
Emperor Qingyuan had a dark face and walked straight to the palace where Princess Fengyang lived.
In the palace, Princess Fengyang was lying on the bed, her face covered with red rashes, and she looked very scary.
Seeing Emperor Qingyuan and Empress Xiao walk in, Princess Fengyang quickly climbed down from the bed, knelt down and said, "Your Highness greets you, Father and Mother."
"Get up," Emperor Qingyuan said. Seeing Princess Fengyang standing up, Emperor Qingyuan stared at her face and shouted to Qingyan who was standing beside her, "Tell me, what's going on?"
Qingyan trembled with fear and knelt down hurriedly, saying, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the princess has caught a cold these past few days and has been feeling unwell and unable to sleep. When she woke up this morning, she saw a rash suddenly appear on her face. I don't know why this happened."
After listening to Qingyan's words, Emperor Qingyuan looked at Doctor Sun standing beside him and said, "Doctor Sun, have you ever examined the princess?"
When Imperial Physician Sun heard the question from Emperor Qingyuan, he knelt down hurriedly and said, "Your Majesty, I have just taken the pulse of Princess Fengyang..."
"How is it?" asked Emperor Qingyuan.
Doctor Sun replied with a trembling voice, "I believe the princess has developed a rash on her face due to an external cold, internal emotional damage, and imbalance of qi and blood."
"Then...how many days will it take to disappear?" Emperor Qingyuan asked anxiously.
"Your Majesty," Imperial Physician Sun glanced at Princess Fengyang and whispered, "I believe the princess's condition is quite serious. I'm afraid she will need at least a month."
"Your Majesty, the marriage will be held in three days. What should we do?" Queen Xiao asked anxiously.
Emperor Qingyuan remained silent. He stared at Princess Fengyang's face for a while, then turned to Imperial Physician Sun and said, "Imperial Physician Sun, is what you said true?"
"Your Majesty...everything I said is true," Imperial Physician Sun stole another glance at Princess Fengyang and replied tremblingly.
"Well, if I find out you're lying, I'll exterminate your entire clan!" Emperor Qingyuan said, then turned to Princess Jing'an, who had been standing behind him, and said, "You know medicine too, come and see her."
Princess Jing'an, who was standing behind, had no choice but to step forward.
Princess Fengyang had just noticed Princess Jing'an and immediately looked at her face with wide eyes: "You...your face...is healed?"
Princess Jing'an didn't say anything, but just stretched out a hand and placed it on Princess Fengyang's wrist.
This ugly bastard knows medicine? Could she have cured her face herself? Impossible! If she could have cured it herself, she would have done it long ago. Why would she have waited until now? This ugly bastard, please don't let her see anything.
Princess Fengyang thought to herself, staring at Princess Jing'an with her eyes, and the hand on her wrist suddenly became a little nervous.
At this time, Doctor Sun was also staring at Princess Jing'an's hand. Thinking of what Emperor Qingyuan had just said about exterminating the nine clans, Doctor Sun had a layer of cold sweat on his forehead.
