I insist

Chapter 394: Showing Goodwill

Song Miqiu was admiring the flowers and plants in the courtyard when he looked up and saw an unparalleled beauty standing in front of him.

Seeing that the beauty was also looking at him, Song Miqiu slowly stepped forward to greet her.

"You must be the new Empress."

Song Miqiu broke out in a cold sweat, knowing only that the woman called the Demon Consort by her real name but never asking.

The concubine wasn't angry. "I know what everyone in the palace calls me. It's alright, just relax. Just call me Your Majesty."

After saying that, he led Song Miqiu inside.

Song Miqiu followed behind the demon concubine, inquiring about the fragrance emanating from her. This woman was truly extraordinary.

Just as Song Miqiu was lost in thought observing the demoness, the demoness unexpectedly stopped.

Song Miqiu also quickly stood down.

"What's wrong, Your Highness?"

The demon queen didn't speak, but reached out and touched the wildflowers by the roadside.

"These flowers are so vibrant, but in this palace only peonies are worthy of admiration."

Song Miqiu was a clever man and quickly understood what the wicked concubine was implying.

But think about it, which woman in the palace didn't end up like this?

Song Miqiu quickly responded to the Demon Consort.

"Your Majesty, you know how beautiful this flower is, don't you? Now that you've told me, I will appreciate it too."

After a brief pause, Song Miqiu continued.

"Besides, Your Majesty, these flowers are just as beautiful whether people appreciate or not, aren't they?"

The demon concubine was overjoyed, naturally understanding why Liuli was targeting Song Miqiu in this way.

It seems that meeting with Song Miqiu today was a wise decision.

"After hearing what the imperial physician said, I felt much better."

After saying that, he continued walking inside.

Soon the two arrived at the concubine's palace.

Seeing that there was no one in the room, Song Miqiu originally intended to test the demon concubine's intentions.

How could I have guessed that the demon queen would be so magnanimous towards me?

The reason was that when Song Miqiu entered the room, he found that it was filled with countless rare treasures, which should all be gifts from the emperor.

This left Song Miqiu stunned, her mind only focused on how many points she could exchange for these items in the system.

Without realizing it, my mind wandered.

The demon concubine noticed that Song Miqiu was interested in the treasures in the room, so she spoke.

"I don't understand these things. If the imperial physician knows how to appreciate them, he can take them."

Hearing the demon concubine's words, Song Miqiu could hardly believe her ears.

"Your Majesty, what did you say? These things can be bestowed upon me."

The demon queen wasn't angry; instead, she smiled.

"Consider this a gift from me to you since we first met."

Song Miqiu was stunned; this gift was truly extravagant.

However, Song Miqiu didn't dare to be too arrogant and simply chose a few of his favorites before stopping.

"Your Majesty, these few are enough."

The vixen immediately summoned her servants.

"Wrap these things up and give them to the imperial physician to take with her when he goes back."

"Yes."

After receiving the order, the maids all left.

Only then did Song Miqiu begin to care about the demon concubine, and he was no longer clear about what was going on in his mind.

Whether the demonic concubine was truly as terrifying as everyone said was something Song Miqiu couldn't care less about at the moment.

He silently told himself, "I can't say anything bad about someone after taking their things. I'll observe them first."

After the items were wrapped up, the demon concubine invited Song Miqiu to eat something.

"The snacks on the table were just brought from the Imperial Kitchen. The Imperial Physician may eat whatever he wishes."

Song Miqiu nodded, flattered.

I couldn't help but ask later.

"Your Majesty, what brings you here?"

When Song Miqiu asked her this question, the Demon Consort did not answer her directly.

Instead, they said some nonsensical things.

"I have no friends in the palace. I called the imperial physician because I wanted to have someone to talk to. The imperial physician doesn't need to take it to heart."

Song Miqiu simply replied, "Oh."

Then the two fell silent.

It was the enchanting concubine who broke the deadlock by speaking first.

"How well do the imperial physicians get used to living in the Imperial Hospital? Is anyone in the palace treating them badly?"

Since Song Miqiu didn't understand, he had no choice but to answer truthfully.

"No, Your Majesty, everything is fine with me in the palace."

Seeing that Song Miqiu's teacup was empty, the demon concubine even got up to refill it for her.

The two then chatted about other things for a while, but they were all trivial matters.

Seeing that it was almost time, the demon concubine spoke.

"It's almost time. Imperial Physician, you should head back for today. We can discuss the pulse diagnosis another day."

Upon hearing this, Song Miqiu suddenly remembered that he had come to take pulses, but after arriving at the destination, he had been so busy receiving gifts and eating that he had forgotten his important business.

He quickly swallowed what was in his mouth and said.

"Your Majesty, I will take your pulse now."

The vixen refused.

"No need, otherwise I'll have to come up with an excuse to call the imperial physician next time."

Song Miqiu could only give an awkward smile.

And so Song Miqiu came out directly from the concubine's palace.

Even after returning to the Imperial Medical Academy, Song Miqiu was still in a daze.

Upon hearing Song Miqiu's voice, Ming Taicheng quickly came out to inquire.

"How did it go? What did the vixen summon you to say?"

Song Miqiu stared blankly for a moment, and really didn't know how to tell Ming Taicheng.

This made Ming Taicheng very anxious. "Say something! What happened?"

Song Miqiu didn't say anything, but instead showed Ming Taicheng the things that the demon concubine had given him.

Having spent so many years in the palace, Ming Taicheng would recognize such treasures.

"what is this?"

Seeing Ming Taicheng's shocked expression, Song Miqiu slowly spoke.

"This is what that vixen concubine you mentioned gave me."

Ming Taicheng simply couldn't believe it.

"What did you say?"

Song Miqiu nodded very seriously.

Ming Taicheng then began to seriously examine these treasures.

While looking at the screen, she said, "Besides these things, did she ask you anything or force you to do anything for her?"

Ming Taicheng still couldn't believe that the so-called enchantress everyone was talking about was actually so good.

Song Miqiu thought about it carefully and repeatedly, but the demon concubine really hadn't done anything.

"Really, no, they just asked me some very ordinary questions, like how I've been eating and sleeping."

After saying that, Song Miqiu crossed her arms in front of her chest and said, "Is it possible that someone in the palace was jealous and said that on purpose? The evil concubine didn't have any bad intentions."

Ming Taicheng couldn't care less about all that. "Regardless of what this vixen is up to, you'd better be on your guard and not let your guard down."

Song Miqiu was aware of this.

"I know that, I'll observe it more closely."

After Song Miqiu finished speaking, Ming Taicheng quickly wrapped up the treasure.

"Keep these things safe and don't let anyone know that you have any dealings with the Demon Consort."

Song Miqiu nodded, thinking to herself, "If I put it in the system, who among you could find it? I've converted it all into points."
