I insist

Chapter 152: Special Drugs

As soon as she stepped out of the Imperial Hospital, Song Miqiu felt refreshed. She deliberately looked back at Lin Yecheng and the reactions of some of the imperial physicians who disliked her.

Seeing that even if they wanted to scold him, they couldn't because the head eunuch was in front of them, he felt really pleased.

Before Song Miqiu could react, the head eunuch turned around and they met eyes. Her smile hadn't faded when she saw him.

She stood there stunned for a long time before awkwardly nodding and smiling at the head eunuch, "Sir, is there something you need?"

"It's nothing." The head eunuch gave Song Miqiu a cool glance.

This made the other person feel a light shining behind her, and she understood that the head eunuch probably meant that she had just taken advantage of the other person's presence to know that Lin Yecheng dared not do anything offensive, and that was what she had done.

The phrase "borrowing the tiger's power" perfectly describes Song Miqiu.

She lowered her head and stood there obediently.

But Song Miqiu forgot that she was now wearing the mask of an older woman, and standing in front of the chief eunuch in this posture looked somewhat incongruous.

The head eunuch swallowed hard, looking like he had something to say. He wanted to say something, but in the end, he sighed heavily, turned around, and strode forward. "Hurry up and catch up. If you keep the Emperor waiting, you'll be in big trouble!"

Song Miqiu shrank back. She had seen the Emperor's angry face before and really didn't want to experience it a second time.

"Understood."

She followed closely behind the head eunuch, walking quickly forward, but he walked so fast that Song Miqiu could barely keep up.

Song Miqiu didn't care; what she cared more about was whether she could have a powerful backer in the palace to help her get through this difficult time.

Today she realized that there were many dangers in the palace, and right now she only had Consort Lin as her support, but this support would only last until the birth of Consort Lin's child.

If something were to happen to the child along the way, the deal she made with Consort Lin would probably come to an end.

After much deliberation, Song Miqiu decided to find another patron within the palace; otherwise, if something like today happened again, she would inevitably suffer a lot.

Song Miqiu pursed her lips and looked at the head eunuch carefully.

Perhaps noticing Song Miqiu's gaze, the other person glanced back at him, then looked straight ahead and said calmly, "Staring at others all the time is not a good habit."

Song Miqiu chuckled and quickened her pace to walk beside the chief eunuch, walking side by side with him.

Just as the other party was about to question Song Miqiu, Song Miqiu opened and closed her mouth and revealed the illness of the chief eunuch.

Upon hearing this, the head eunuch was momentarily surprised. He was about to ask about his condition when he saw that Song Miqiu could accurately describe his illness, but then he realized that since the other party was an imperial physician, it was normal for him to know.

But judging from Song Miqiu's expression, it was as if she could cure his bad habits.

Thinking of this, the head eunuch sneered. Even Lin Yecheng was helpless against his own illness, and he was the head of the hospital. If he couldn't accomplish this, how could Song Miqiu possibly do it?

But then I thought about it again. Song Miqiu could tell me about his illness without even taking his pulse, so there must be some skill involved.

He suddenly stopped, and Song Miqiu, caught off guard, bumped into the eunuch's shoulder.

"Ouch!"

Song Miqiu covered her forehead, grimacing and yelling. Halfway through rubbing her forehead, she realized that she had bumped into the head eunuch.

Song Miqiu's pupils suddenly contracted, and even the headache disappeared. He quickly lowered his head.

"It was because I was blind that I bumped into you, Steward."

The head eunuch raised his hand and gently patted his shoulder. He squinted at Song Miqiu and questioned, "Judging from your appearance just now, do you know how to cure my illness?"

When asked about the special event, Song Miqiu nodded, "I have a way to cure your condition."

She had redeemed the special medicine from the system in advance while following behind the chief eunuch to observe.

Song Miqiu had begun to suspect that the head eunuch was suffering from heart disease, since the symptoms were so similar to those of a heart condition.

The head eunuch stood quietly with his hands folded in front of his abdomen, watching Song Miqiu take something out of his sleeve. When he saw that it was just a porcelain bottle, his brows furrowed involuntarily.

The head eunuch had expected there to be something else, but seeing only this one item, he couldn't help but feel suspicious.

He picked up the porcelain bottle from Song Miqiu's hand with two fingers, placed it in his own palm, and held it there. The head eunuch looked at the thing lying in his palm and couldn't help but ask, "Is this what you said could cure my ailment?"

"Hmm." Song Miqiu glanced up and saw the head eunuch looking suspiciously at the porcelain bottle in his hand. She immediately explained, "This medicine is very rare and is specially formulated for patients like you. However, his method of taking the medicine is a bit special."

"special?"

Upon hearing this, the head eunuch curiously uncorked the bottle and peered inside in the sunlight.

All he saw were pieces of something he had never seen before.

What is this?

The head eunuch stretched out his hand, held out the white porcelain bottle, and asked Song Miqiu a question.

"This is what I meant by special. If you want to take this medicine, you must first take one pill. You can swallow it directly or with water."

The item was too strange, and the head eunuch was about to refuse it, but when he met Song Miqiu's gaze, he inexplicably accepted it.

He put the cork back in, lowered his head, and tucked the item into his sleeve, saying with a faint smile, "Since you're so thoughtful, it would be awkward for me not to accept it."

Although he expressed his gratitude, the head eunuch did not intend to use the medicine given by Song Miqiu and planned to simply leave it on the table as soon as he returned.

Although Song Miqiu was somewhat famous within the palace, his fame did not stem from his knowledge of medicine.

In addition, given the strange nature of his illness and the difficulty in treating Lin Yecheng, he did not intend to place his hopes on a man who was nearly sixty years old.

Song Miqiu smiled, but her heart was bleeding.

The special medicine required a lot of points, so she exchanged for one bottle of the special medicine and handed it over.

She bit her lip hard, and seeing that the head eunuch had not yet left, she was calculating in her mind how many precious items she would need to earn back these points.

Song Miqiu lowered his head, calculating carefully, when he heard the voice of the chief eunuch above him.

"You probably want to know why the Emperor summoned you, don't you?"

Upon hearing this, Song Miqiu immediately raised her head and nodded vigorously. Excited, she took a step forward and said, "Of course I want to know."

"Because a high-ranking official suddenly fainted, and the Emperor had heard that you were involved in the matter, he sent me to the Imperial Hospital to summon you."

The head eunuch turned and walked forward, but this time his pace slowed considerably.
