The following day.
According to the Imperial Physician, Old Master Su’s illness has shown improvent.
Once the condition stabilizes, they can leave the palace and return ho.
As long as they have the prescription from the Imperial Physician, Bai Xilie can provide so gold and silver, and they can treat the illness back in the village.
So today, Bai Xilie brought Zhi’er to visit Old Master Su.
However, they hadn’t entered yet when they heard Old Master Su coughing violently.
Su Yinling worriedly said, "Father! You’re coughing again, I’ll go call the Imperial Physician to take a look."
Old Master Su waved his hand repeatedly.
"Didn’t the Imperial Physician say that after taking this dicine, the cold air will be forced out of the body, and the symptom is persistent coughing, but as the condition improves, it’ll gradually get better."
"The Imperial Physician is working hard, coming several tis a day, don’t go troubling others."
After he finished speaking, the palace Servant at the door said, "Greetings to the Emperor."
Bai Xilie was already holding Zhi’er, stepping into the hall.
Old Master Su was leaning on the couch, upon hearing this, he hurriedly tried to hold on to Su Yinling’s hand to get up.
Bai Xilie gestured with his hand, "No need for formalities, Uncle Su, rest. I just ca to visit briefly."
"I heard from the Imperial Physician that the condition is stabilized, yet just now outside the door, I heard you coughing incessantly. Could there be an issue with the dicine prescribed by the Imperial Physician?"
Old Master Su quickly said, "No, the Imperial Physicians are dedicated, indeed making feel much better."
"Only this dicine, the Imperial Physician said it would conflict with sothing, I don’t quite understand, but the Imperial Physician said after a while, it will be better."
Su Yinling frowned and looked worried.
"The dicine is good, but my father doesn’t seem to adapt well. Every ti he starts coughing, it doesn’t stop, which is frightening to watch."
"Brother Lie, we don’t understand, we only trust you. Could you tell , can my father’s illness be fully cured?"
Zhi’er, in her father’s arms, blinked her big round eyes.
She looked at Old Master Su.
His face flushed red due to coughing, although he looked weak, he had a haggard and sickly appearance.
But, it’s not a deadly illness.
It’s also gradually getting better.
Bai Xilie listened to Su Yinling’s question, his expression turned slightly indifferent.
"The palace’s Imperial Physicians are all skilled and capable, rely a lung cough, it’s not that difficult to treat."
After he spoke, Old Master Su couldn’t help but cover his lips with his hand, turning his head to cough violently.
Bai Xilie subtly frowned.
As if feeling a bit unlucky.
He bowed his head and said to Zhi’er, "Zhi’er, would it be alright to wait for dad outside the hall? Dad will talk to Grandpa Su for a bit and then co."
The little one instantly jumped to the ground, "Okay."
Su Yinling quickly said, "Would you like Aunt Yinling to accompany you, Zhi’er?"
She said so, but remained still, sitting firmly in her chair.
Zhi’er smiled sweetly, "No need, Aunt Yinling, just talk from your seat."
With that, the little one walked to the corridor.
She swung her little feet, looking at the blue sky and white clouds, and happily squinted her big eyes.
Not far away, at the corner, two palace Servants were standing with their backs to her, brewing dicine, completely unaware that the little princess was nearby.
The whispering voices of the palace Servants also reached Zhi’er’s ears——
"This Uncle Su, every ti the Emperor is about to co, he coughs the most severely."
"Indeed, on regular days, I don’t see him have any issue. After drinking dicine at night and sleeping, there’s even snoring!"
Zhi’er blinked her long eyelashes twice, she turned her head and looked toward the direction inside the hall.
Uncle Su, after saying a few words, would automatically steer the topic towards his daughter, Su Yinling.
No matter what Bai Xilie ntions, it’s always the sa.
Finally, a subtle displeasure flashed in Bai Xilie’s eyes.
He stood up, "I am glad to see Uncle Su’s condition improving, surely in two or three days, you will be able to return ho."
Su Yinling nervously asked, "Brother Lie, my father’s condition is still not stable, and he feels uncomfortable after taking dicine. Could we stay a few more days, just in case sothing happens, with the Imperial Physician here, there can be care."
