"Should the emperor's health suffer, I, as the empress, am here to tend to it. Imperial Consort, are you capable of treating illnesses or prescribing medicine for the emperor? If not, then spare the emperor from your disturbances," Su Yingxue cautiously spoke, uttering a few words to give Leng Shuqing a hint.
She needed to make her aware of her place, to stop clinging to Chu Yihan.

Leng Shuqing put down the ginseng soup, and knelt down heavily, "This consort has erred, please issue your punishment, empress!"
Her excessively calm facade made it rather awkward for Su Yingxue when it came to meting out punishment.
It was only to make Chu Yihan happy that she had criticized Leng Shuqing, and now she was actually expected to punish her...
How to punish?
