At that time, Emma Liu was walking over with Daisy Xiang. Emma looked up and saw Sandy Shen in the pavilion. She hesitated for a moment but didn't stop walking.
Emma told herself that she shouldn't go head-to-head with Sandy.
She loved to come to this place, but now it was occupied by Sandy. She thought: if she tolerated Sandy now, would she have to endure her in the future?
Fortunately, Hercules Qin cared about Emma. If something happened to Emma, Sandy would suffer, too.
Thinking about this, Emma felt relieved.
She walked into the pavilion and said, "Princess also came here to enjoy the apricot flowers?"
Sandy, squinting at Emma, knocked on the desktop with her white fingers leisurely and said, "Can't I come?"
Emma laughed before saying anything, but Daisy interjected: "Madam Emma loves to come here and to enjoy apricot flowers. General had someone planted the apricot forest for madam. If Princess does enjoy apricot flowers, you can enjoy them elsewhere. Madame loves solitude, and would like to sit here alone."
"Don't be rude to the princess," Emma sat down opposite Sandy. "If you like it, of course, you can come."
Daisy helped Emma put qin (a seven-stringed plucked instrument) in place, and soon music sounded.
It's soft and intoxicating.
At the end of the song, Emma heaved a sigh of relief and sweated slightly, saying, "Make sure you're mistreating."
"You play well. No wonder Hercules likes it so much."
At this time, a maidservant was walking over there with something in her hand.
When Daisy saw it, she smiled and said, "Madam, it must be cubilose stewed in the kitchen. I will go and get it."
A bowl of cubilose and a few delicate snacks were placed on the table, fragrant.
Emma moved her spoon, and when she saw Sandy staring at her, she laughed, "Princess, do you think something is wrong?"
Sandy glanced at the cubilose and said with a smile: "Are these those sent by Stellan?"
Emma paused a little.
Daisy said: "The doctor said that the princess should not eat these. It is a waste to put them aside. Last time, princess gave madam a few mouthfuls of soup, which made her weak for several days. General cares about Madam, and it is natural for Madam to get these tonics."
Emma said softly, "These were originally prepared for you, but General insisted that I take supplements every day so I can get it back early."
Sandy said jealously, "You look well, I should say, and you have used it in the right place."
Emma enjoyed a few mouthfuls and said, "Princess, you won't be angry with me, will you?"
Sandy said, "It's no use getting angry. Take your time and be careful not to supply too much."
Sandy got up and just passed by Emma, and then she enjoyed the apricot flowers back to Spring Graden, in a good mood.
Hercules, as a General, had to go out on business in the morning. For three days in a row, Sandy seized the time and picked the place to meet Emma.
Emma deliberately ate the precious supplements originally given to Sandy, thinking that Sandy must be angry about that.
Every time Emma ate soundly.
Sandy guessed that it was about time.
It turned out that something was going on in Emma's yard.
It was fine this morning, and Emma had only eaten Zhicao tea in the afternoon. It was not long before Emma began to have nosebleeds, and it couldn't stop.
Hercules just came back from the outside and was alarmed. He had someone to get a doctor while rushing to Emma's place.
At that time, Sandy was sitting at the window with a cup of tea in her hand and a roll of books on her lap.
Sandy was very happy and adaptable to ancient life here. She used to be very busy when she was a star, and now she finally had time to live leisurely.
She was reading, and she didn't even frown when she heard Zhao talk about it.
Everything was in her expectation.
Zhao, of course, knew that radix aconiti carmichaeli was the source of the problem.
Radix aconiti carmichaeli was hot in nature and could promote blood circulation. For several days in a row, Sandy put it into the supplements of Emma. Normally, Emma couldn't stop nosebleeding.
Emma had already digested the radix aconiti carmichaeli. Even if the imperial physician diagnosed her, at best, the conclusion would be that Emma took into many supplements and the deficiency fire was too strong.
There's nothing else.
Mama Zhao was still concerned: "Princess, you have been in contact with Emma in recent days. If Madam Emma insists that this matter is related to you, how to deal with it?"
