Jiang Peihuan gazed upon the scene before her, addressing Emperor Qi Ming directly, "Your Majesty, I shall tend to the Empress now."
Without waiting for Emperor Qi Ming's response, Jiang Peihuan, accompanied by Ye Xiao, entered the Empress's chamber.
By the time Jiang Peihuan entered, the Empress had already opened her eyes, likely having heard the commotion outside.
Jiang Peihuan didn't speak immediately but took the medicine from Ye Xiao's hands. She then looked at the Empress and whispered, "Your Royal Highness, please take the medicine."
Ye Xiao stepped forward, propping a pillow behind the Empress. Seeing the medicine Jiang Peihuan brought to her lips, the Empress opened her mouth to take it.
After swallowing the medicine, the Empress said softly, "All these years I've been in the palace, I have never wronged them. Yet they harbor such deep hatred for me and the child within me."
