Chapter 913: May not be true
Compared with Zhou Awu’s nervousness, Bai Zhi was calm. She will go there as a doctor and will do what she must do. There was no reason to be afraid of a patient waiting for her treatment.
But when she saw the sharp and cold eyes of Empress Dowager, she knew that she was still too naive. People will not necessarily return your sincerity with sincerity.
For example, Song Lang and the Qian brother and sister. Another one was, Pei Qinghan.
You will get the same ending when you get close to them. Not to mention, she was merely a female doctor in front of the grand empress dowager.
“Bai Zhi, do you know your sin?” The Empress Dowager didn’t ask her to check her pulse but asked her such words. Bai Zhi was taken aback and then replied: “This young lady didn’t know what crime did she commit.”
When the Empress Dowager heard this, she immediately threw the teacup cup in her hand in front of Bai Zhi. The hot tea splashed on Bai Zhi’s protruding hands. The back of her fair white hands instantly turned red.
Bai Zhi hissed in pain and immediately withdrew her hands.
Seeing this, the palace maids on the left and right side didn’t even blink their eyes, which proved that such kind of event was very common in this place.
“Bold, what do you think this place is? Your Dongfang Family Mansion? Or Jin Wangfu that you can be so arrogant?”
She didn’t know when she became arrogant. When she came in, apart from paying respect, she only said one sentence. Saying one sentence can be considered arrogant?
Bai Zhi frowned her eyebrows. The back of her hand was so hot and painful. The place she was kneeling was a cold marble floor. There was a thick woolen blanket on this floor before. But this time, it was gone. At first, she didn’t think too much about it, she thought she would only kneel for a moment. Who would have thought that this old lady wouldn’t let her get up? She’s afraid that the woolen blanket was deliberately taken away.
The hot tea ran down to her knees. Fortunately, she was wearing thick cotton trousers today. When the trousers were soaked in hot water, although it was hot, it will not burn her flesh.
“The Empress Dowager, this young lady didn’t know what crime she committed. This young lady asks the empress dowager to enlighten her.” Bai Zhi straightened her back. Although she was still kneeling, she didn’t intend to make herself look humble. When did she, Bai Zhi, ever become humble?
This old lady in front of her, where was she noble than her? Because she gave birth to a good son? Because she married a good husband?
The Empress Dowager saw a trace of disdain in Bai Zhi’s cold and bright eyes.
Disdain? She was a mere little female doctor. Even if she was guarded by Dongfang Mu and Prince Jin, can she go against her? She dare to disdain the mother of this country?
The Empress Dowager stretched out her hand and pointed at Bai Zhi’s face, her fingertips trembled as she said: “You want to make it clear? Okay, this empress dowager will make it clear to you.”
She took a deep breath and tried to keep her face solemn and magnificent, “This empress dowager ask you, how many things happened in the palace since you appeared here?”
Bai Zhi licked her lips, faintly smiled, and said with a clear voice that echoed in the room: “Answering back the empress dowager, the first time this young lady entered the palace, was when the empress dowager was diagnosed and needed treatment for stroke. This young lady saved the empress dowager who was in danger. The second time this young lady entered the palace was under the empress dowager’s edict. This young lady checked the empress dowager’s pulse. The third time was under the empress’s edict. And today, it is the fourth time this young lady enter the palace.”
When Bai Zhi saw the Empress Dowager’s facial expression drastically changed, the smile on her face became deeper and deeper: “This young lady is not a public doctor, nor an imperial doctor in the Imperial Hospital. She enters the palace to treat the empress dowager and the empress to give face her grandfather and Prince Jin. Since the Empress Dowager feels wrong when this young lady enters the palace, then this young lady will not come in the palace in the future.”
The Empress Dowager was so angry that she felt her lungs would explode. In her whole life, she has always been pampered. The people under her, who didn’t flatter her? Even if what she said was wrong, no one dares to say that she was wrong. She was right when she’s right, and she was right even when she’s wrong. In this place, she will never be wrong.
