Chapter 14 Maybe... a gifted person

[The heroine's mother made a pearl hairpin for the queen, and a phoenix weeping blood appeared on the hairpin. A villain instigated and said that the hairpin was unlucky and unlucky. The queen mother immediately ordered fifty lashes of sticks and refused to allow any imperial physician to treat her. Not long after, she contracted an epidemic and died.]

"Epidemic? The Empress Dowager's decree? No wonder the Imperial Medical Bureau has no news and knows nothing." It is as difficult as climbing to heaven to pry something out of the mouths of the imperial doctors in the Imperial Medical Bureau. Even if they know, they will not tell you easily.

[Host, when did you learn swordsmanship? Your medical skills have also reached a certain level. Oh my God, host, you are so amazing! ] Is this still the same fool?

The system looked through Jiang Jiang's progress and found that Jiang Jiang's swordsmanship level and medical skills level appeared out of nowhere on the attribute panel.

[Host, have you learned martial arts? ] The system was puzzled. How could a farmer who could barely read and write have such good swordsmanship?

"I don't know, maybe... I have a special talent."

Jiang Jiang ground the medicine into powder. An imperial physician reached out from behind Jiang Jiang and took a handful. He frowned and beckoned another imperial physician to come over and take a look. "Hiss, Lao Zhao, come and take a look."

"What? What happened?" Doctor Zhao threw down the pulse case.

"This kid, grinding licorice into the medicine changed the properties of the medicine, increasing its strength and easing the heat. He has a keen understanding, and his understanding is higher than all of us combined."

"Such a good understanding would be a gift from God if it happened outside, but this is the palace, and a high understanding is not a good thing." Doctor Zhao stroked his beard and began to worry.

"Ugh!"

"Girl with a miserable life, study hard. Life is short, it's never wrong to learn more." He patted Jiang Jiang's shoulder.

The sympathetic and comforting look gave Jiang Jiang goosebumps.

It seemed as if Jiang Jiang was going to die in the next second.

[Host, why did you study medicine? ] The system couldn't help but mutter. It had only been away for more than a year, but when it came back, it felt like the host had become a different person.

"It's also the Queen Mother's decree. If I pass the exam the day after tomorrow, I will become the princess's personal maid." Jiang Jiang sighed through her nose, cautious and helpless.

[Host, will you go? ]

"I come from a poor family, and the Queen Mother would not let me be a female official with real power. The Queen Mother took a fancy to me because I was the only one among all the palace maids who chose to study swordsmanship. Even if someone else chose this course, the Queen Mother would still keep her." After entering the Imperial Medical Bureau, Jiang Jiang also figured out why her report card was passed to the Queen Mother and why she wanted to keep her. After all, her other grades were indeed very bad.

Jiang Jiang participated in the princess's selection of a study partner. Why was Jiang Jiang made a female official instead of a study partner? Jiang Jiang figured it out in the Imperial Medical Bureau where one would be remiss if one spoke too much.

Rather than being a maid of a concubine, suffering from bullying and torture, being implicated when something goes wrong, and having her entire family executed, Jiang Jiang felt that being a female official without real power in the princess's mansion was not a bad idea.

Not to be missed.

The Queen Mother gave her such an opportunity and she could learn what she liked. Jiang Jiang felt that this was already very good. Even if she failed to complete the task and was eliminated, it would be a great deal to live like this.

Oh, I can’t show that I like it.

Will be discovered.

Quietly.

After the medical skills exam, Jiang Jiang deliberately failed, and his final score was just above average, just barely passing.

Two months later, the little girl, who was six years old, was brought to the Queen Mother's palace to meet her.

The Queen and the Emperor went out of the palace to preside over the ceremony. The Queen Mother was dealing with a dispute among concubines, so Jiang Jiang knelt on the steps at the door waiting to be summoned.

In the end, Jiang Jiang never met the Queen Mother in person.

The person who delivered the message was Ma Ma, a female official beside the Empress Dowager.

[……] Fool, you knelt for two hours, didn't even eat, and didn't even see the Queen Mother... What a fool, [Aren't you going to see the heroine? ]

"What do you want to see the heroine for?"
