The Rising Phoenix-Chapter 663: Started The Treatment On The Empress Dowager.
Chapter 663: Chapter 663: Started The Treatment On The Empress Dowager.
"I promise I will hold back. I have suffered for a long time. I believe this time, my illness will be treated." The empress dowager stated.
She looked at Bai Xifeng. She did not know why she believed this young girl so much. But her instinct told her that she could believe this young girl.
"One more thing, during the treatment, I don’t want us to be disturbed by others. So, in case that Her Highness screams in pain, others need to understand that Her Highness is undergoing the treatment." Bai Xifeng stated.
"Caitao, tell everyone that Jasmine Palace is closed for today and tomorrow. We are not receiving any guests from now on." The empress dowager relayed the order to the old maid beside her.
"Yes, Your Highness." The old maid nodded.
She went out for a moment to tell everyone about the empress dowager’s order. She returned to the empress dowager’s side.
"Okay. Let’s get started." Bai Xifeng said.
They moved to the place where the bathtub was. Bai Xifeng took out one vial. When she opened the vial, the medicinal smell occupied the air. He Qiang and his disciple, Ma Changying, were surprised to smell something like this. This smell was very rich. They could state a few herbs just from smelling this elixir.
"Lady Bai, can I check the elixir?" He Qiang spoke respectfully to Bai Xifeng.
"Yes." Bai Xifeng let He Qiang and his disciple, Ma Changying, check the elixir.
After checking the elixir, He Qiang was trembling. It was because he was excited.
"It is indeed a fifth-grade elixir, Soul Devouring Heart Rotting Elixir. What makes it super special is that this elixir is a high-ranking elixir. It is so hard to concoct." He Qiang stated.
Hearing this made the empress dowager more confident in Bai Xifeng’s skill.
After looking at the elixir, He Qiang returned the elixir to Bai Xifeng. Bai Xifeng focused on the empress dowager’s back.
"Lady Bai, do I need to take off my clothes before going into the bathtub?" The empress dowager asked.
"It is up to you. It does not matter." Bai Xifeng said.
"Then, I will wear the clothes." The empress dowager stated.
Well, she was embarrassed to appear without clothes in front of everyone. Bai Xifeng gave the elixir to the empress dowager to drink. The empress dowager took the elixir. The colour seemed weird, making people afraid to drink it. However, the empress dowager braved herself to drink it.
The moment the elixir touched her taste buds, her eyes flickered. It did not taste weird. It tasted delicious. This was the first time she drank the elixir with a taste like this. Usually, it tasted bitter and weird. She often frowned when she drank the elixir in the past.
The old maid prepared some sweets and was about to give them to the empress dowager after she finished her elixir, but the empress dowager refused the sweets.
"It is fine." The empress dowager said.
The old maid nodded. She stepped back and put the elixir away.
"Alright. Time to get into the bathtub." Bai Xifeng stated.
The empress dowager called the maid. The maids helped the empress dowager get into the bathtub. She settled into the bathtub by positioning herself comfortably. Bai Xifeng told her to do so.
Seeing the empress dowager had settled in, Bai Xifeng took out the acupuncture needles. She went behind the empress dowager’s back. She needed to put the needles on the empress dowager’s back head.
"I will start the treatment now." Bai Xifeng stated.
"Yes." The empress dowager nodded.
Bai Xifeng started the acupuncture. Five of the needles stuck into the empress dowager’s back skull. The next five needles were placed on the top of the skull. Then, on the right and left sides of the skull. The last place was the forehead.
"Do you feel anything?" Bai Xifeng asked.
"No... No right now." The empress dowager answered.
"Okay. You might feel the pain later." Bai Xifeng said.
She raised her hands and directed her palms to the empress dowager. The needles started to vibrate. Everyone watched the situation with interest.
The empress dowager began to sweat and her expression frowned. She began to feel the pain. But it was still bearable. She thought it was going to hurt more.
Bai Xifeng touched the water in the bathtub. The water already felt cold. She used her fire elemental attribute to heat up the water. She could not let the water turn completely cold. She turned her focus on the needles again. She switched multiple times. Focusing the energy on the needles and using the fire elemental attribute to heat up the water.
The water, which was clear at the beginning, began to turn cloudy. Bai Xifeng explained to the empress dowager that the toxins began to come out.
Bai Xifeng continued until the water turned completely dark. She read the empress dowager pulse. The first part of the treatment had been done. She told the empress dowager asking the empress dowager to get out of the bathtub.
The maids immediately helped the empress dowager. Bai Xifeng told the empress dowager to change into a clean and dry clothes before they could continued the treatment.
Bai Xifeng asked for some water to drink while waiting the empress dowager changed her clothes. She was thirsty. She did not know that another wave of trouble would come later.
