Translator:Henyee TranslationsEditor:Henyee Translations

Unexpectedly, an unforeseen incident occurred, adding to the already tense situation.

At this moment, not only was the entire peony garden off-limits, but the entire imperial garden was deemed a forbidden area!

The Emperor was seething with anger. Who would dare to venture into the imperial garden at such a time? Did they have a death wish?

Only the Queen, n.o.ble Consort Mei, Princess Consort, and a select few n.o.ble family members dared to display their concern for the peonies in the Imperial Garden. No one else possessed the qualifications to show such concern.

Accompanied by her attendants, Princess Consort arrived, and the two eunuchs who appeared visibly distressed immediately prostrated themselves, bowing deeply.

Acknowledging their presence, Princess Consort turned to Dao Seeking and inquired, Where is Qingan?

Respectfully, the young eunuch replied, Princess Consort, Master was here just moments ago. He went back to retrieve something

The hearts of the two young eunuchs were heavy, yet they dared not reveal their sorrowful expressions in front of their master. They kept their heads slightly lowered.

The gardeners responsible for tending to the flowers and trees in the imperial garden had exhausted every possible method, but the flowers continued to wither day by day. They were unsure how much longer they could persevere.

Within the Qianqing Palace, a group of individuals arrived each day to apply pressure and conduct interrogations.

However, it was a flowera living ent.i.ty incapable of speech. How could it convey discomfort? What could a flower do? If it couldnt be healed, then it couldnt.

However, the stakes were high. If they couldnt find a solution, none of them would be able to escape the consequences!

Princess Consort nodded and casually found a pretext to dismiss the others, then turned to Qiao Xuan and asked, Take a look and see if theres a remedy.

Qiao Xuan could sense that the peony flowers still clung to life. Although their condition was dire, there was still hope.

Qiao Xuan carefully inspected the roots, adopting a professional demeanor.

In truth, she couldnt be certain if it was due to pests, soil issues, or some other factor.

But as long as the plant itself was resilient and provided with sufficient soil, water, and sunlight, there should be no insurmountable problem!

After pretending to examine for about 15 minutes, Qiao Xuan rose to her feet and addressed Princess Consort with a confident smile. Princess Consort, I can indeed nurse these peony flowers back to health. However, time is of the essence. If we delay for another four days, even divine intervention may prove futile!

Princess Consorts eyes lit up, and she cautioned, Are you absolutely sure, Ms. Qiao? Think carefully before answering. If you succeed in saving the flowers, even without my intervention, you will be greatly rewarded by the Emperor. However, if anything goes awry, not only will you be in trouble, but Editor Shao and I will also face dire consequences.

Qiao Xuans confidence shone through her smile. Thank you for your concern, Princess Consort. Rest a.s.sured, I am fully confident in my abilities!

Very well. Princess Consort sighed with relief and nodded. Then come with me to meet the Queen.

Yes, Princess Consort.

Empress Qi felt a surge of joy upon hearing the news!

Although she didnt fully trust Qiao Xuan, she had faith in Princess Consorts judgment.

If Princess Consort had brought Qiao Xuan to her, it meant she had confidence in her abilities.

Accompanied by Princess Consort, Qiao Xuan was personally taken to Emperor Xuan, where she was instructed to begin her treatment.

News of this event quickly spread throughout the palace, capturing the attention of numerous eyes fixated on the peony garden within the imperial grounds.

The Crown Prince had always been dependable, and this brought a sense of relief to the concubines, princesses, as well as the palace maids and eunuchs, who secretly awaited a favorable outcome before expressing their elation.

The Emperors foul mood had cast a pall over everyone, inducing trepidation. Finally, the clouds were starting to disperse!
