After leaving Shou Kang Palace, Ye Muchen wanted to ask Jingxue if she wanted to send her maid to the palace, but seeing her distant and respectful attitude, he decided against it. Anyway, she had the maids from Jingwu Palace to take care of her, and he would be happy if she was not feeling well!

When they reached the fork in the road, Ye Muchen said he had something to do and left with his entourage. Jingxue rolled her eyes, turned around and headed towards Fengqi Palace. The two palace maids behind her looked at the two of them, their behavior in public and in private, exchanged glances, and quickly followed Jingxue.

Inside Phoenix Palace, the Empress had already woken up, but her wounds were starting to hurt. When Jingxue entered, Granny Qi was talking to her to distract her.

There was a woman who looked like a wet nurse taking care of the child!

Upon seeing Jingxue, the Empress forced a smile and beckoned her over. "Sister Xue'er, you are truly a lucky star for me and my son! I didn't pay much attention to your words yesterday at the banquet, which mentioned you had some medical knowledge! But today you saved my son and me, and I must thank you properly!"

Jingxue hurriedly went over and took the Empress's hand. "Sister-in-law, it's not as exaggerated as you say. You and the Prince are just blessed. How are you? Is your wound particularly painful? If you can't bear it, I'll give you acupuncture to relieve it!"

"It's alright! I can endure it. I don't mind suffering a little, as long as my son is safe!"

Having given birth to the eldest son of the emperor, fulfilling the emperor's long-cherished wish, the empress was experiencing both pain and joy!

"Okay! I'll massage your acupoints later. You can sleep a little longer. After tonight, you need to get out of bed and walk around tomorrow. This will help with gas expulsion. After that, you can eat!" Jingxue said as she took the Empress's pulse.

"Okay! I'll do whatever my sister says!"

"Yes! Granny Qi, please prepare a room for me. I'll be staying here for the next few days!" Jingxue said.

Upon hearing this, Granny Qi quickly replied, "Your Highness, you flatter me! No trouble at all, no trouble at all, I'll prepare it for you right away!"

Jingxue went to check on the baby again. The wet nurse said that the baby had already been fed. The wet nurses were all carefully selected, so she believed that they would not be bad!

Granny Qi was quite quick. She knew Jingxue was very tired. After tidying up the room, Jingxue didn't make a fuss and went to rest!

Just as Jingxue lay down, a voice sounded in her mind: "Ding! The Treasure System Space has been activated! The host has been bound!"

Jingxue sat up abruptly. What was going on?

"Host, I am the Treasure Sprite! You have saved both the Queen and the eldest prince of a country. This is your reward. This system provides you with a complete set of medical equipment, along with the Treasure Mall. However, the mall currently only offers medicines and daily necessities!"

Wow! There's an unexpected bonus!

It would have been perfect if this had happened before the Queen's surgery.

"Are there any Western medicines or injections for anti-inflammatory and pain relief? What about antibiotics?"

"Yes, you can enter the space! There's a big screen there, and you can use the search bar to find what you want to buy, but you'll have to use real money to purchase it!"

"Huh? I have to pay for this!" Jingxue muttered as she entered her spatial dimension.

"Yes, host, this system only recognizes real gold and silver!"

Oh my god, so even silver notes won't work!

The space contained a sterile operating room, a table, an empty shelf, and a 32-inch computer that was turned on on the table.

Jingxue took the package Xiaoman had prepared for her into her spatial storage. Inside was a small bag of golden melon seeds and some silver ingots!

I'm no longer sleepy. I bought some painkillers, anti-inflammatory Western medicines and injections from the system. These are what the Empress needs right now!

Soon, the purchased medicines and other items appeared on the table, but two of the golden melon seeds were missing!

This system is quite thoughtful; the Western medicine is also in powder form and is already packaged according to the dosage!

Thinking about making a medicine chest in the future, Duobao Elf said that she would only provide things that did not exist in this era. She saw that the two imperial physicians both had medicine chests that could be carried on their backs or lifted by hand.

Jingxue searched for some more things she wanted, "Besides daily necessities, what else can the Multitreasure Elf do?"

"Then the host needs to upgrade!"

"Oh, how do I level up? Do I have to do quests?" Jingxue asked.

"I don't know either. As long as the host doesn't give up, there should be hope for further upgrades to other system functions! That's just my guess!"

Jingxue "..."

Just guessing?

"Furthermore, the host must upgrade the system at least once every six months, or he will be struck by lightning for five seconds!"

"Huh? Holy crap!" Jingxue seemed to see herself scorched and cracked inside.

I let out a frustrated sigh. It's already bound to me; there's no point in thinking about anything else!

Jingxue remembered that the original owner's dowry included 18,000 taels of silver notes and several hundred taels of silver. This amount of money would be more than enough to live on in this ancient world. However, this system is a death trap. Perhaps Lei is already preparing to set off. It seems she needs to work hard to upgrade. But should she save people or make money?

Zhongcuigong

Consort Li slammed down her chopsticks in frustration and yelled at the wet nurse who was trying to soothe the Third Princess, "Cry, cry, cry all day long! And you too, you can't even soothe a child properly! Take her away from me right now!"

Granny Wang gave the wet nurse a wink, and the wet nurse carried the Third Princess to the bedroom in the side hall!

Consort Li stood up, took out a handkerchief, and wiped her mouth!

"Your Highness, you've been at Fengqi Palace for so long, you must be tired. Take a nap!" Granny Wang came over to help Consort Li.

Consort Li sighed!

"Your Highness, the princess can only stay by your side until she is three years old. The child should spend more time with you!" Wang Mama advised.

"Alas! My belly is so disappointing, why is it only a princess? Otherwise, my rank could have been promoted. Look, His Majesty doesn't seem to care at all. He won't even let my family members attend the Third Princess's full moon celebration!" Consort Li became more and more angry as she spoke!

"Your Majesty, among all the concubines, only you have borne a child. Who can compare to you? Now that you have the eldest prince, His Majesty will probably no longer insist on preventing the concubines from getting pregnant. You still have a chance to give birth to a prince. Right now, that other one is unable to serve the emperor, so you still need to strive for His Majesty's favor!"

Wang Mama's words made Consort Li feel a little better!

In truth, she hated that detestable Jingxue even more. The imperial physicians were helpless, yet Jingxue managed to perform a cesarean section to remove the child—how meddlesome! Otherwise, if that person had died along with the unborn child, with her family background, she would have had a very good chance of becoming empress!

In this inner palace, who wouldn't think of themselves? Favor, offspring, and rank—aren't they all things that you have to fight for? If you don't fight for them, you'll be trampled underfoot.

"Granny, send someone to the Prime Minister's residence to summon my mother to the palace!" Consort Li ordered.

"Yes, Your Highness, I'll take care of it right away!" Wang Mama replied and turned to leave.
