Returning after a three-year escape from death, the tyrant has turned evil.

Chapter 247 Using Blood as a Medicinal Ingredient

Jiang Lanye immediately grabbed her hands, effortlessly clasping them together. After admiring her slightly annoyed expression for a moment, he couldn't help but chuckle.

"You're allowed to bully me, but I can't even fight back? Are you being reasonable?"

"I won't talk!"

She was so angry that she wanted to bite Jiang Lanye again: "Besides, I think you like him quite a bit, so how is that bullying?"

Jiang Lanye raised an eyebrow; she was right after all.

Seeing that she was about to explode again, Jiang Lanye forcefully suppressed all her struggles, pulled her into his arms, and said helplessly, "Can this little wildcat behave herself? Apply the medicine for me later, hmm?"

She struggled out of Jiang Lanye's arms: "No way."

After a while.

Jiang Lanye exposed his entire upper body. Song Yi sat cross-legged on the low couch, applied some ointment with her fingertips, and looked at the particularly conspicuous scratches on his broad back. She felt a little guilty for once, and applied the ointment more gently.

Noticing her movement, Jiang Lanye slightly curled his lips.

"Okay, turn around, let me see what's ahead."

After Jiang Lanye turned away, Song Yi felt a little embarrassed to look at him. She evaded her gaze as she finished applying the medicine, and immediately shifted her eyes away from the fleshy area in front of her.

"Put them on quickly."

"I just finished applying it, so I should wait a while before wearing it."

Song Yi gave a vague reply.

Noticing her discomfort, Jiang Lanye reached out and pinched her cheek: "Why are you dodging?"

Song Yi deliberately put on a stern face and slapped his hand: "Have some sense of male virtue."

There was no one else inside the hall.

Song Yi: "."

Her eyes began to uncontrollably dart upwards.

When Jiang Lanye put on the dragon robe, he looked lean and strong, but once he took it off, you could see the solid muscles all over his body, especially his waist and abdomen, which were particularly hard.

There is a long, horrifying scar standing across it.

Song Yi couldn't help but touch it again, clearly feeling very frustrated.

Jiang Lanye didn't react much, only saying, "This is a lesson, a constant reminder that I must be more careful in the future."

Song Yi nodded heavily.

Jiang Lanye, who had been reluctant to put on the dragon robe just moments before, suddenly took a step back and immediately put it on.

"you"

"If you continue, the imperial physician won't need to come in for a while."

Song Yi was startled, then turned around and grabbed a soft pillow from the low couch, throwing it at Jiang Lanye.

Half an hour later.

The imperial physician brought in the medicine, and Song Yi pinched her nose and went over to take a look.

"It doesn't taste bitter, but it just doesn't smell good. What exactly does it taste like?"

The imperial physician chuckled, "This medicine doesn't smell good at all, Your Majesty, please try it."

Anything that could be brought into the Golden Palace and eaten had been tested for poison. Without further hesitation, Jiang Lanye tilted his head back and drank it all in one gulp.

Upon seeing this, the imperial physician suddenly called out to Song Yi.

"Your Highness, I have something to say to you."

Song Yi glanced at Jiang Lanye and walked towards the door.

"Your Majesty, this medicine will most likely have no effect after you finish drinking it."

Song Yi frowned: "Then why should His Majesty drink it?"

The imperial physician hurriedly said, "This time, we're just testing whether there will be any adverse reactions after taking the medicine. But it seems there's nothing wrong with the medicine itself; it's just missing one ingredient." Song Yi nodded knowingly. "What do you need?"

"Yes, the blood of the most Yin. Of course, only a small half bowl is needed; not too much."

Upon hearing this, Song Yi acted almost without hesitation.

"Alright, then we'll use mine. When do we need to get it?"

Seeing her decisiveness, the imperial physician hesitated for a moment: "However, Your Majesty, you are of noble birth. I am thinking that it would be better to find a palace maid."

Before he could finish speaking, Song Yi raised her hand to interrupt him: "Imperial physician, please don't talk about my precious body. I am a human being, and palace maids are human beings. In essence, there is no difference. When I need blood drawn, I will go to your Imperial Hospital."

".All right."

Although he couldn't understand what Consort Yun was saying, he found it very interesting.

The empress is a human being, and so are the palace maids.
After the imperial physician left, Jiang Lanye looked at her quietly. Song Yi immediately explained, "He just told me that this first dose of medicine was just a trial, and that I should pay close attention to whether you have any adverse reactions today."

Jiang Lanye nodded casually: "Not for now."

Song Yi reached out and touched his cheek: "I hope that one day I won't have to see you taking medicine anymore."

Jiang Lanye raised his hand and grasped her wrist, then turned his cheek and placed a kiss on her palm: "It won't happen again."

Day two.

Jiang Lan woke up quite early that night, and while Song Yi was still asleep, he went to review several memorials.

When Song Yi woke up, she casually tied her hair up and walked up to Jiang Lanye, saying casually, "Jiang Lanye, I'm going to the Imperial Hospital."

Jiang Lanye frowned: "Why did you go again?"

"Oh dear, that medicine is still missing one ingredient. It'll be ready in no time. Do you think I can sit still in the palace? I'll go check on it and be right back."

Jiang Lanye didn't say anything more. He knew Song Yi felt sorry for him, so he looked at the table next to him and said, "Eat something before you go."

She wasn't really in the mood to eat, so she walked over, popped a small steamed bun into her mouth, waved, and left.

After a stick of incense.

"Eunuch Cao, is His Majesty inside?"

When Eunuch Cao saw that there were two more Consorts, he immediately felt a chill run down his spine.

It's quite a coincidence that these two always manage to arrive just when the Imperial Concubine is not in the palace.

Seeing his hesitation, Consort Shen bit her lower lip: "Eunuch Cao, I came here this time only to show concern for His Majesty. Don't worry, I won't do what I did last time."

Eunuch Cao sighed and went inside.

"Your Majesty, the two Consorts request an audience."

Although Jiang Lanye did not favor them, he still had to give them face, after all, they were involved with the previous dynasty.

Once Song Yi left, he showed no interest in anything and simply said, "Hmm."

So, the two of them went inside again, feeling rather awkward.

No matter how many times they entered or left the Golden Palace, which symbolized imperial power, they would feel fear.

Inside the Imperial Hospital.

Song Yi walked over, and the imperial physicians hesitated when they saw her arrive.
"Your Highness, are you sure you want to use your own?"

"I was born at the third quarter of Hai hour, which is exactly what you call the Yin hour. Since that's the case, there's no need to waste any more time. It's just a matter of taking some blood, so come on."

Seeing that she no longer hesitated or wavered, the imperial physicians naturally didn't say anything more and took over a small white porcelain bowl.

"Your Majesty, less than half a bowl is enough."

Looking at the bowl, Song Yi knew that it would be impossible for half the bowl to be filled with liquid if she only pricked her fingertip. After thinking it over, she showed her wrist.

If you're cutting your wrists, you have to be careful with the force; if you cut too deep, the bleeding won't stop.
