exposed to had unknown components, requiring more time for analysis. Currently, only a temporary medication to control the neurotoxin's attack could be manufactured.Everything ended, and only when sh..."Fortunately, you have Yunsheng taking care of you now, so I can rest assured and go out for a while. Besides, we're almost out of food at home, so I need to go outside and buy some more delicious food to replenish your body."

To avoid raising Chun Tao's suspicion, Qing Xuan picked up the two stale buns Chun Tao had thrown outside the door before leaving.

But after yesterday's events, Chun Tao's overnight buns were even worse. They weren't just stale, there were even footprints on top.

Seeing Qingxuan calmly pick up the two stale buns on the ground, Zhang Jin, who was guarding the door, became agitated instead.

"My Queen."

Qingxuan was holding two dirty, rotten, and smelly shoes in his hands. He took a step back in disgust.

Qingxuan: "Is something the matter"

Zhang Jin's face held no superfluous expression, but his trembling eyelashes betrayed his anxious heart.

Chapter Jin took out a plain oiled paper packet from his bosom and handed it to Qingxuan.

Zhang Jin: "There are some snacks inside."

He had anticipated that Chun Tao would become increasingly demanding and difficult towards Qing Xuan, so he was prepared.

Qingxuan was astonished. She took the paper package from Su You, and discovered inside was osmanthus cake, which both she and Nangong Ye loved very much.

Qingxuan looked up and down at Zhang Jin.

Qingxuan: "Why are you giving this to me You're someone close to Empress Jiang.

Zhang Jin's breath caught. After a long pause, Zhang Jin's voice came from the courtyard gate.

"I have always greatly respected Your Highness. If not for the charge of treason, your future would have been limitless. You are incredibly intelligent and kind-hearted, and you would certainly have led the people to a prosperous life. However... just one year ago, my mother fell ill with tuberculosis. To prolong her life, I had no choice but to serve Concubine Jiang."

Zhang Jin spoke of his helplessness.

Qingxuan saw the struggle of a family member of a patient in his eyes.

She had also seen countless patients' families who, in order to treat their loved ones, were willing to do things that went against their own morals and values, and even illegal acts.

They betrayed their souls and conscience, all for the sake of keeping their loved ones in this world a little longer, sparing them from the agony of illness.

Qingxuan: "You said your mother has pulmonary tuberculosis"

Unexpectedly, Qingxuan continued to ask. Zhang Jin was startled, his expression dimmed immediately.

Zhang Jin: "Now, my mother is lying in bed and coughing up blood constantly. It seems she doesn't have much time left."

Zhang Jin finished speaking, and Xiao showed no desire to continue the topic. He changed the subject.

Zhang Jin: "Your Highness, if... If Your Highness has any other needs, please feel free to tell me."

Qingxuan looked at the plain oiled paper package in her hand and thought, "Why don't you take me to meet your mother"

Zhang Jin, upon hearing this, was startled and raised his head to look at Qing Xuan.

I thought I must have misheard.

Zhang Jin: "Your Highness, what did you just say"

Qingxuan tilted her head slightly and smiled, "If I said I could cure your mother's tuberculosis, would you let me treat her"

Zhang Jin was stunned for a moment, still digesting Qingxuan's words from just now.

The current queen is even more unfathomable than he imagined.

He certainly had some strange medical skills, but it was impossible for him to cure his mother's tuberculosis.

Zhang Jin: "Your Highness, I am ordered to guard you. I cannot let you leave this courtyard."

Zhang Jin would question her medical skills and refuse her, which was within Qing Xuan's expectations.

Qing Xuan scoffed. "In that case, you don't care about your own mother's life or death."

As soon as she finished speaking, Zhang Jin calmly denied Qing Xuan's words with a stern expression.

Zhang Jin: "Your Highness, please don't speak rashly. If it were possible, Zhang Jin would gladly offer his own life in exchange for his mother's."

Before, Zhang Jin hadn't seen the scene of dissecting and suturing a mouse. Qingxuan thought about it and could only use the old trick again.

Qingxuan: "Why don't we do this, you catch a mouse tomorrow morning."

Since the mouse she had dissected and stitched back together ran away, she hasn't seen any mice in the yard.

Zhang Jin heard that Qing Xuan wanted a mouse, and was astonished: "What does the princess want a mouse for"ppeared halfway through the journey.She just came here to vent, she didn't come here to die.Ling Ru made a resolute choice and compromised: "I won't make things difficult for this guard!"She holstered...
