The empress dowager had never been very nice to them.
To be more precise, apart from the crown prince, the empress dowager was indifferent to everyone else.
"Your Majesty —"
Mrs Dugu and Mrs Zuo bowed to her.
The empress dowager had been excited to see them, but her face darkened when she saw that the two ladies were empty-handed.
Mrs Dugu and Mrs Zuo could sense the chill in the air, but they had no idea what was going on …
"What brings you here?" The empress dowager stared at them.
Mrs Dugu smiled. "Your Majesty, we're here to see how you're doing. Are you feeling better?"
The empress dowager snorted. "I'm fine, but I'm still the same. What's there to see? "
Mrs Dugu felt a little embarrassed at the retort.
Just then, Granny Lan came in with a box of food.
The empress dowager's face darkened even more when she saw the food. Her face looked as if it had been painted black.
Seeing the empress dowager's childish behavior, Granny Lan smiled bitterly. "Your Majesty, here's your food."
After that, Granny Lan opened the box and set up the table.
There were all kinds of boiled green grass and fruit in the small box. There was no sugar, salt, or oil, and the bland taste was enough to kill one's appetite.
The empress dowager had been eating for almost half a month, and she was on the verge of breaking down.
"Take it away! I won't eat it! I won't eat it! "The empress dowager threw a tantrum like a child.
Granny Lan smiled bitterly. "Your Majesty, you said yourself that this food is very helpful for your recovery. Plus, we'll be able to eat normally in a few days. Can't you just put up with it for a little longer?"
Glaring at Granny Lan, the empress dowager pushed the box away and bellowed, "I've been eating this for over ten days! It's been over ten days! One more bite and I'll throw up! Take it away! I won't eat it even if I starve to death! "
Granny Lan smiled bitterly inwardly.
The empress dowager couldn't move or eat for the first few days, which was fine. However, as the empress dowager recovered and her sense of taste returned, it became harder and harder to coax her to eat.
"Your Majesty —"
"Take it away! Take it away! "
"Your Majesty —"
"I'm talking to you! Can't you hear me?!" The empress dowager was on the verge of exploding because she couldn't satiate her appetite.
Mrs Dugu and Mrs Zuo looked at each other. Mrs Zuo was a thoughtful woman. She quickly figured something out and came up with a plan in her head.
Mrs Zuo frowned at Granny Lan. "Granny Lan, is that all you're giving Her Majesty? What do you take Her Majesty for? "
Granny Lan immediately felt wronged. She looked at Mrs Zuo in resignation. "Mrs Zuo, you may not know this, but Her Majesty was unwell before. This is the recipe that the medicine master gave us. It's very helpful for Her Majesty's recovery."
Mrs Zuo rolled up her sleeves. "Really? Medicine Master? May I ask which apothecary gave the order? I'd like to ask if it's really appropriate to torture Her Majesty like this. "
Hearing that someone was on her side, the empress dowager immediately felt that Mrs Zuo was her confidante. Taking Mrs Zuo's hand, she turned to glare at Granny Lan. "That's right. Call him over. I want to ask him if he still wants his head after abusing me like this! "
