After Yun Xiyue entered and bowed, she began to massage the Tian Tu, Feng Long, Fei Shu, Tan Zhong, and Shu Tu acupoints on the Empress Dowager's body. If there were silver needles, she could use them for acupuncture.
But she doesn't know how yet; she's still learning and doesn't dare to perform acupuncture on the Empress Dowager rashly.
This is the only way.
After about half an hour of her acupressure massage, the Empress Dowager's cough was relieved considerably and she stopped coughing.
The purplish complexion gradually improved.
"Empress Dowager." At this moment, the Emperor and Consort Pei arrived with the imperial physicians.
Murong Yu entered and walked to her side, "How is Mother?"
Yun Xiyue wiped away her sweat, stepped back, and bowed, saying, "Your Majesty, I performed acupressure on the Empress Dowager, and she has stopped coughing."
The imperial physician stepped forward to take his pulse and examine him.
"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager's cough has improved considerably."
Everyone in Fu Ning Palace breathed a sigh of relief. Granny Su knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, it was fortunate that Miss Yun was quick-witted and knew to massage the Empress Dowager's acupoints; otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable."
"Granny Su, please get up!" Murong Yu breathed a sigh of relief as he looked at the sleeping Empress Dowager. He then led his men outside to speak, "Why did the Empress Dowager suddenly fall ill?"
Zhou Zhilan then stepped forward to complain.
Pei Fang immediately cut her off, "Cousin, you don't know how powerful Consort Zhou was in Funing Palace just now! You'd think she was the mistress of Funing Palace."
"First, she made Xiyue prepare the scar-free ointment, and then she made her hand it over as a tribute. How could a mere noblewoman like her have such audacity? She even dared to instigate the Empress Dowager."
"If she hadn't kept urging the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager wouldn't have fallen ill from worry."
Consort Zhou was furious. "Your Highness, don't make false accusations. I didn't instigate the Empress Dowager. It was Yun Xiyue who offended the Empress Dowager, causing her illness to flare up."
"Your Highness the Imperial Concubine left beforehand and was unaware of the situation. I know you and Yun Xiyue are friends, but you cannot slander me to protect her like this!"
Murong Yu listened to the two women arguing, ignored them, and looked up at Yun Xiyue, "What do you say?"
"The Imperial Concubine and Consort Zhou have already said what should and shouldn't be said, so I have nothing more to add," Yun Xiyue said.
Murong Yu glanced sharply at Zhou Zhilan.
Zhou Zhilan was so frightened that she lowered her head and dared not look at him.
"Your Majesty, I only summoned Yun Xiyue to the palace because I heard that she was the apprentice of a divine physician and that she could cure the Empress Dowager's heart ailment."
Murong Yu snorted coldly, "From now on, Consort Zhou is not allowed to come to Funing Palace again. She will be confined to her quarters for six months."
"emperor......"
Zhou Zhilan was unwilling, but when she met the man's cold eyes, she dared not resist.
Pei Fang was happy to see Zhou Zhilan punished.
The man then added, "Yun Xiyue interrupted the Empress Dowager to go to Baohua Temple to chant sutras and copy Buddhist scriptures to pray for the Empress Dowager's recovery until she recovered."
Yun Xiyue replied, "Your subject obeys the decree."
Pei Fang was surprised that the Emperor would punish Yun Xiyue. "Cousin, Xiyue saved the Empress Dowager and deserves credit. Isn't it unfair to punish her?"
Murong Yu seemed to think it made sense, so he changed his mind and said, "Well, the Consort is right. Then let's balance the merits and demerits."
"From now on, Yun Xiyue is not allowed to enter the palace without my decree."
This means that if someone invites her to the palace, she can rightfully refuse.
Yun Xiyue was secretly delighted, "Your subject obeys the decree!"
"Tell Granny Su how to massage acupoints," Murong Yu said, gesturing for her to stand up and glancing at Granny Su.
In this way, the Empress Dowager had no excuse to seek her out again.
Yun Xiyue was more than happy to go. Every time she entered the palace, she felt like she was on the verge of death. She would avoid going if she could avoid it. She quickly told Su Mama the massage technique.
