"Your Majesty, I only have a rudimentary understanding of medicine and do not know fortune-telling; that is beyond my expertise," Zhang Xiaoying apologized. "I beg Your Majesty's forgiveness, the method I proposed can make Your Majesty's body more comfortable and prevent frequent awakenings due to pain in the middle of the night."
Emperor Mingjing originally wanted to scold Zhang Xiaoying, but her last remark made his expression change slightly.
No one except the Chief Eunuch by his side knew about this situation, as during the recent rebellion led by the third prince, and with Yu Yang just having been made the Crown Prince, they had kept even the court judge of the Imperial Medical Bureau in the dark to ensure the court's stability.
Yet, Zhang Xiaoying had discerned everything clearly just by taking his pulse.
At that moment, the Chief Eunuch already harbored an intent to kill, waiting only for Emperor Mingjing's command to take Zhang Xiaoying's life.
