Chapter 215: Courting
Queen Yun was so excited that she suddenly coughed, An Qing Ran immediately went forward, patting her back, and it took some time before she came to the smooth ground, she looked at An Qing Ran and smiled bitterly: "I am truly happy, I didn't expect that you would be able to cure his poison ...... What reward do you want?"
An Qingran shook her head: “Chen nu don’t want anything. Just hope that the General’s Mansion will not be affected by the success or failure of the Chen nu. “
"Silly child, why are you still worrying about that, didn't I promise you? I will not let anyone find trouble with the General’s Mansion. But how could anyone with a little humanity make it difficult for a child of your age."
An Qing Ran smiled politely.
Empress Yun did not care what happened to herself, she was happier than anything else when the Crown Prince was recovered.
Moreover, her impression of An Qingran was much better.
At noon, the General asked to see An Qingran, and Empress Yun agreed.
Led by a small palace maid, An Qingran went out of the harem and saw An Zhongtao.
“Are you all right, is there any trouble for you?” An Zhongtao asked An Qingran anxiously as soon as they met.

“Father, I’m fine. Empress niangniang has not made it difficult for me as long as I have attended to her. Is everything okay at home?"
“You don’t need to worry about things at home, everything is fine. This is your biaojiu’s reply. I brought it here for you.”
An Qingran was very anxious when she heard this, and wanted to look through the letter, but her father was here, so she couldn’t do that.
When An Zhongtao saw that she had something to do, he gave her a few more instructions and left.
When she returned to the house, An Qing Ran opened the letter and with it fell a prescription for medicine. Her heart leapt wildly at the sight of it. If there was a prescription, it meant that the Empress was saved.
When she finished reading the letter, her face changed several times.
Slowly, she went to the superior room.
“What’s the matter? Couldn’t be scolded by the General. Why did you look like this?” Empress Yun looked at her small face, feeling a little distressed.
In her heart, An Qingran was already her prospective daughter-in-law, and she naturally felt distressed if she was bullied. But unfortunately, it was An Zhongtao. So she didn’t ask deeply.
“Empress niangniang, my master has replied to me, now there is a way…” It was difficult for An Qingran to say this, but Empress Yun stared at her and then smiled.
"It's all right, just say what you have to say, kid. I've seen all kinds of turmoil, and can stand up to it."
" I have told my master about Niangniang’s condition and he finally wrote back, yet he has a solution, if this medicine is taken, Niangniang’s body is immediately as good as a good man's, but after six months will die instantly without any signs and if this medicine is not taken, there will still be no cure for Niangniang’s illness ......"
She didn't say the following words because her cousin uncle said that the Queen's life expectancy was less than three months.
That is, Empress would be dying regardless of the treatment, but if she was treated, she would be able to live in good health for six months, thus relieving herself of the immediate crisis. Her cousin uncle was completely concerned for her, and told her to keep this prescription secret from anyone.
But she didn’t want to hide it from the Empress.
When Empress Yun heard her out, a bitter smile appeared on her face, "It's hard for you, I'll think about it, keep this prescription for now, let me think about it."
In fact, she had already made up her mind, but she was still not in a good mood when she was told personally that there was no cure for her illness. But she was a sensible and intelligent person and quickly told An Qingran that she wanted to use this prescription.
An Qingran nodded. In her opinion, this is also the best choice.
Living healthily for half a year is more interesting than lying in bed all the time. These medicines are a heat attribute, condensing and amplifying her vitality, much like the elixir taken by ancient emperors.
An Qing Ran began to study this prescription, many of the ingredients on it were not available in the Imperial Hospital, An Qing Ran knew that the medicine should not be known, this was also the Empress' wish, of course she did not want people to know that she only had half a year to live. So, she sent people out to make secret purchases, and those commonly used medicinal herbs were sent over from the Imperial Hospital. Finally the medicine was prepared, and An Qing Ran finally asked the Empress niangniang once more, and she smiled and nodded her head: "I know I have no choice. And you gave me this six months of life, which I can't thank you enough for and won't blame you for. Also I have six months to live, so you don't have to worry about no one protecting you and the general's house if anything happens to me, do you?"
An Qingran knew that Empress Yun understood everything.
So, she handed the medicine up.
This prescription takes ten days, and these ten days are the most important time, which cannot be disturbed by anyone, must be taken on time, and there are many things to avoid, An Qing Ran wrote them down one by one, and ordered the kitchen not to make mistakes.
She was exhausted at night, mainly mentally. She was afraid that she might make a mistake and not achieve six months of life or, on the contrary, shorten her life, knowing that she had a great responsibility and that she had never been so tired.
Someone knocked on the door.
The maid opened and called Taizi.
An Qingran sat up. Is the Taizi holding a food container? While putting things on the table, he smiled and said: “Heard from that Muhou say you have found a good way to cure her disease, is it?”
There was real happiness in his eyes.
The Empress Yun had commanded her not to say anything, especially to the Crown Prince.
In fact, An Qing Ran felt that Empress Yun was overprotective of the Crown Prince, if she had let him know the truth earlier, he would have cherished this time and would have been more prepared for it in his heart.
"Why don't you say anything? Are you lying to my Muhou?” The crown prince deliberately said.
An Qingran smiled, "It's just a prescription, you'll see the effect only after you drink it ...... What are you holding?"
"This bowl is a snow clam soup. I had someone cook it, you have worked hard these days ......" Dongfang Jin put the bowl on the table, "See if it tastes good, if not, I will have someone make bird's nest soup for you again. "
An Qingran was not too polite. She picked up the bowl and took a sip. There is not even the slightest bit of fish, obviously the skill is very good: “not bad, it’s delicious.”
"As long as you like it, I'll have them make it up for you every day from now on."
"I'll have to get a nosebleed if I have it every day." An Qing Ran laughed bitterly.
Dongfang Jin leaned on the noble couch, and the whole person gives off a peach blossom persona.
"By the way, what do you suggest I do if the poison flares up again?" There was an evil tone in the Crown prince's voice and his phoenix eyes were raised, it was obvious that he was willing to chat with An Qingran.
"It shouldn't flare up again, besides, it seems you know what to do yourself even if I don't tell you."
He hadn't come seeking her out every time the poison flared up.
He was really lucky to have survived until now.
Dongfang Jin smiled: “Really? Then I will look for you next time… I’m afraid you will despise me.”
"How can you say that? Even if a healer does not have the heart of a parent, I am still more afraid of the power, so how can I not treat you?"
"Do you really treat me because you are afraid of the power?" The Crown Prince's face straightened and his gaze was like water as he looked at her.
Looking at the doubt and the affection in his eyes, An Qing Ran knew what was in his heart, but she really wasn't in the mood for it right now. She had already thought about it, not only was he younger than herself not to mention that she was only worried about her mother and brother right now.
