THE GRAND PRINCESS YI DE HAS A CHRONIC DISEASE ~
The entrance of Niyunfang was crowded with people. Looking at the ten screens, no matter how one looked at them, they would not feel that it was enough. Many women felt excited when they thought they could create such a beautiful screen after learning the embroidery needle technique.
Many merchants engaged in embroidery have come to inquire, hoping to pay silver to buy these ten screens. Before the shopkeeper of Ni Yun Fang could refuse, the people hadn’t agreed first.
These ten screens were their hope. Every time they walked over, even taking a glance at them, they would feel at ease. How could they let someone buy them?
The Emperor glanced at the signboard, then turned to look at Grand Princess Yi De. “Elder Sister, I heard that the clothes within Ni Yun Fang are expressly beautiful. Why don’t we go in and take a look as well?”
“Sure, that’s exactly what I was thinking.”
Mu Yunyao was flipping through a picture booklet upstairs, thinking about what kind of clothes would come out in the winter at Ni Yun Fang. Just as she thought of some patterns, she heard a knock on the door, “Miss, there’s a lady downstairs. The shopkeeper is a bit confused and wants to invite you down to take a look. In addition, the lady wants to buy a beauty book, and the shopkeeper hasn’t refused yet.”
Mu Yunyao nodded, “I understand. I’ll go down immediately.” Cai Yi’s vision wasn’t bad. She had also specifically told her about the temperament of the ladies in the Capital. Anyone who could make her confused was definitely not an ordinary person.
Mu Yunyao walked down the stairs and saw two figures sitting in the hall. She suddenly stopped, and her heart was filled with surprise. The Emperor and the Grand Princess Yi De?
Cai Yi raised her head and looked over, “Misstress, here you are. This lady wants to buy a beauty book that the owner has personally embroidered.”
Mu Yunyao quickly walked down and turned to instruct Cai Yi, “Close the door early today. I’ll entertain this lady.”
Cai Yi was stunned. Seeing Mu Yunyao’s expression, she hurriedly ordered her people to invite the other guests away and shut the gate of Ni Yun Fang.
With no one else present, Mu Yunyao bowed respectfully to the two of them. “This humble girl greets the Emperor and Grand Princess Yi De.”
The rest of the people in Ni Yun Fang were scared silly. They quickly kneeled on the ground, not daring to raise their heads.
“Get up,” the Emperor said as he looked around. “Your arrangement here is rather comfortable, and your business seems to be flourishing. Not bad.”
Mu Yunyao smiled and nodded. “It’s all thanks to Your Majesty. Many people came here to buy clothes to support you, out of respect for your gift signboard.”
This signboard might be just a kind of honor in other places, but it is absolutely extraordinary in the Capital. It has some good meanings when it has a signboard gifted by the Emperor himself. Even if the ladies don’t like the clothes here, they still will buy one or two of them and take them home.
The Emperor couldn’t help but laugh. “It seems that no matter what you do, you always like to attribute all the credit to me.”
“It was originally like this. What this humble girl said was the truth.” Mu Yunyao widened her eyes slightly, and her expression was so sincere.
The Grand Princess Yi De put down the beauty book in her hands. “What Yunyao said is also another truth. For the business here to be so good, Imperial Brother’s contributions must be great.”
Mu Yunyao’s smile became more brilliant, and her bright eyes sparkled, making people feel happy as they looked at it, “These beauty booklets have already been flipped through. If the Grand Princess Yi De likes it, I’ll embroider a new one and send it over to you.”
“There’s no need to go through all that trouble. I just look at this one, and it’s excellent. When I left, I will let someone take it. You have something important to do next. You should do the job assigned to you by the Emperor first.”
“Your Majesty and Grand Princess, please rest assured, Yunyao will do her best.”
“Yes.” Grand Princess Yi De nodded, a gentle smile on her face. “It’s getting late. We still have to go to some other places. You just busy yourselves.” As she spoke, she was about to stand up. But she suddenly stopped, made a violent motion, and fell onto her seat, clutching her chest.
The Emperor was startled. He stepped forward and held Grand Princess Yi De as he asked, “Imperial Elder Sister, what’s the matter with you?”
The Grand Princess Yi De’s face turned pale, her lips were faintly purple, her fingers tightly gripped onto the clothes at her chest, cold sweat forming on her forehead: “I … …Don’t be nervous, Imperial Brother. It’s a chronic disease….”
When she was young, her chest was injured. Even though she had been recovering carefully, there were still some of the root cause left behind. Now that she was old, her symptoms became even more severe than before.
The Emperor’s brow creased as he turned to instruct one of the guards. “Hurry and get the Imperial Physician. It’s all my fault. I didn’t think twice before coming out.” He knew clearly that Imperial Elder Sister’s health wasn’t good. Thus, he should have had the Imperial Physician accompany her.
The Grand Princess Yi De shook her head, wanting to open her mouth and speak a few words to appease the Emperor, but the intense pain in her chest made her unable to breathe. This attack was even worse than the previous times.
The Emperor was shocked. “Imperial Elder Sister, how are you? Imperial Elder Sister?”
Mu Yunyao clenched her fist and fiercely bit the tip of her tongue. She stepped forward to help support Grand Princess Yi De, “Your Majesty, Yunyao is too rash. But please let Grand Princess Yi De lie down. I have some medical skills and might be able to help.”
The Emperor’s gaze was sharp and fierce, and his entire body emitted a cold imposing manner. His gaze towards Mu Yunyao was no longer gentle and instead carried a wave of unfathomable killing intent. “Do you know medical skills?” He would not allow anyone to make a joke of Imperial Elder Sister’s safety!
The Grand Princess Yi De’s face became more and more unsightly. She opened her mouth but couldn’t hear the sound of breathing. Mu Yunyao’s brows were tightly furrowed, and her heart was in turmoil for no reason. Ignoring the Emperor’s suspicions, she motioned for Cai Yi to come forward and help her to lie down. She unbuttoned the clothes around her neck, took out a silver needle, and pierced the acupoint on her chest.
The gaze of the Emperor became increasingly cold as he focused on the Grand Princess Yi De. Seeing Mu Yunyao’s proficient movements, the killing intent in his eyes slightly lessened.
Mu Yunyao’s expression was grave. The condition of Grand Princess Yi De was considered serious. Even after the silver needle was pierced, her shortness of breath didn’t seem to be relieved.
“How is it?”
Mu Yunyao helped Grand Princess Yi De massage her acupoints, then turned her head and quickly recited a formula to Cai Yi. “Three cents of ephedra, two cents of Suzi, three cents of winter flower…. Fry with three bowls of water to become one bowl. Hurry up!”
Cai Yi got up and ran outside.
The Emperor motioned for his imperial guards on the side to follow up quickly. It would still take some time for the Imperial Physician to arrive, but with Grand Princess Yi De’s fierce condition, she probably wouldn’t be able to hold on for that long.
The rest of the people in Ni Yun Fang knelt on the ground, not daring to make the slightest sound, as they were afraid that they would affect Mu Yunyao’s treatment of Grand Princess Yi De.
Mu Yunyao’s expression was focused, and traces of sweat dripped from her forehead. However, she didn’t bother wiping them as she continuously took out silver needles to help Grand Princess Yi De stabilize her condition. Fortunately, her efforts were not in vain. After the last silver needle was pierced, Grand Princess Yi De’s chest suddenly heaved up and down as she took deep breaths, and the purple color on her face gradually disappeared.
The Emperor’s eyes lit up with joy, not caring about the majesty of an Emperor at all. He went forward and knelt beside Grand Princess Yi De, “Imperial Eldest Sister, how do you feel?”
