Rebirth: The Two-Faced Cook Meets the Cold-Faced King Qin

Soon, Xiao Shitou led an imperial physician and a palace maid and hurried to Concubine Yao.

Little Stone said, "Madam, this is Doctor Zhang from the Imperial Hospital and one of Madam Xuan's personal maids, Hua Cao!"

Yaopin sat on the couch, her eyes flashing with an indescribable light.

She stared at the two men intently, as if assessing their worth.

It also seems as if he is thinking about how to make the most of them.

Her voice trembled with an imperceptible tremor, revealing her desire for power:

"Doctor Zhang, Hua Cao, can you two be of use to me?"

The imperial physician and the palace maids were shocked by this unusual atmosphere, but they still quickly knelt down and said in unison:

"I am willing to go through fire and water for you, without hesitation!"

There was a glimmer of cunning and enthusiasm in Yaopin's eyes. She raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a strange smile, and said in a low but powerful voice: "Good, very good!"

Concubine Yao sat in the dim palace, her face was as pale as paper, but her eyes were shining with a strange brilliance.

It reveals a kind of twisted beauty that is yandere and charming.

Her slender fingers gently stroked the tabletop, as if she was thinking about some conspiracy.

"It's ridiculous that Concubine Xuan is pregnant." Concubine Yao muttered to herself, with a strange smile on her lips.

"This child cannot be kept."

The imperial physician and the palace maids stood by trembling with fear; they sensed the dangerous aura emanating from Concubine Yao.

When Concubine Yao's gaze turned to them, they couldn't help but shudder.

"You have to help me deal with this trouble without anyone noticing." Yaopin's voice was soft and strange.

It seemed to have a kind of magic that made people irresistible. "Can you do it?"

Under the gaze of Concubine Yao, they nodded and said in unison: "Yes, sir!"

Concubine Yao smiled with satisfaction, and that smile revealed a twisted joy.

She watched Doctor Zhang and Hua Cao retreat, her heart full of anticipation.

"To be reborn into this palace depends on whether you have a strong enough life." Concubine Yao said softly, with a glimmer of cunning and cruelty in her eyes.

The next morning, Huacao walked slowly into Concubine Xuan's kitchen in the soft dawn light, holding a few packets of pregnancy-stabilizing herbs steadily in her hands.

In the kitchen, the fire flickered slightly, emitting a warm glow.

Hongxiu was busy arranging the kitchen utensils. When she heard footsteps, she raised her head and her eyes fell on the herbs in Huacao's hands.

She raised her eyebrows slightly and asked with some doubt: "Huacao, has the queen finished taking the pregnancy-preserving medicine? Why did you bring new ones so soon?"

Hua Cao smiled slightly, nodded gently, and explained: "Yes, Sister Hongxiu. The queen has almost finished taking the pregnancy-preserving medicine, so I went to the Imperial Hospital early in the morning."

In fact, the hearts of flowers and plants are full of anxiety.

She held the packets of pregnancy-preserving medicine in her hands, and Doctor Zhang's serious words echoed in her mind.

She looked down at the pale yellow powder and couldn't help feeling fear.

"This is not a medicine to protect the fetus," she thought bitterly, "This is simply a poison to kill me!"

She recalled the scene at the Imperial Hospital, when Doctor Zhang handed her the package of medicine mysteriously and cautiously.

The voice was low and serious:

"Remember, this medicine is a chronic medicine. You must give it to Concubine Xuan little by little every day. Don't overdose. Otherwise, you and I will be held responsible."

Flowers and plants know that once they take this step, there will be no turning back.

Hongxiu saw Huacao was stunned and pushed her, "Huacao, Huacao, what are you thinking about? Quickly boil the medicine and send it to the queen later."

After being pushed by Hongxiu, Huacao finally came to his senses. He nodded and said, "Okay, Sister Hongxiu."

The two smiled at each other, and the kitchen was filled with a faint herbal aroma.

Soon, the food in the kitchen was ready, emitting an enticing aroma.

However, the pregnant Concubine Xuan had a very poor appetite due to physical changes and had no interest in food.

Just then, Huacao walked in carefully with a bowl of hot herbs.

Her steps were light and steady, and her eyes revealed her concern for Concubine Xuan.

The herb was a pregnancy-maintaining medicine specially prepared for Concubine Xuan. It had a faint fragrance, and it was hoped that it would relieve her discomfort.

"Your Majesty, here is your pregnancy-maintaining medicine." Hua Cao said softly, handing the medicine bowl to Concubine Xuan.

Concubine Xuan looked up at the flowers and plants, a hint of gratitude flashing in her eyes.

Without any doubt, she took the bowl of medicine and drank it in one gulp.

Although the herbal medicine tasted a bit bitter, Concubine Xuan knew that it was for the health of her and her baby.

After drinking the medicine, Concubine Xuan sighed softly, and seemed to feel a little better.

The flowers and plants responded with a warm smile and quietly left the bedroom.

However, the moment Huacao turned around, her smile changed subtly.

The smile that was originally as warm as the spring sun suddenly became dark and deep.

There was a hint of imperceptible coldness in her eyes, as if she had suddenly stepped into a dark forest from a sunny meadow.

Hua Cao walked out of Concubine Xuan's bedroom. Her steps were light but a little weird.

At the same time, the atmosphere in Concubine Yao's palace was extremely tense.

Inside the hall, Concubine Yao was staring at Imperial Doctor Li in front of her with a grim expression; her gaze was as sharp as ice.

Doctor Li stood in the center of the hall, looking terrified, with cold sweat dripping down his forehead.

His family was detained by Concubine Yao and watched all this helplessly and in fear.

Concubine Yao raised a cold smile and said threateningly: "Doctor Li, you should know that your family is now under my control.

If you don't do what I say, I can't guarantee their safety."

Doctor Li's face turned pale instantly, and he said in a trembling voice:

"Empress Yao, please have mercy on me and let my family go. I will do whatever you ask me to do."

Concubine Yao nodded with satisfaction, a smug smile on her face.

She slowly walked to Doctor Li and gently opened her lips, her voice revealing an unquestionable determination:

"I want Concubine Xuan to be disfigured, unable to speak, and unable to lift. Doctor Li, can you do it?"

Upon hearing this, Imperial Doctor Li raised his head in shock, and his eyes met those of Concubine Yao.

He saw the ruthlessness in her eyes and felt the firmness in her tone.

Such a requirement is undoubtedly an unprecedented challenge for an imperial physician.

Doctor Li had mixed feelings, but facing the pressure from Concubine Yao, he knew he had no choice.

He nodded reluctantly, indicating that he could do it.

When Concubine Yao saw Imperial Physician Li nod, a glimmer of satisfaction flashed in her eyes.

She knew that her goal had been achieved.

Doctor Li slowly leaned forward and prepared to leave, but as he turned around he heard Concubine Yao speak again.

"Oh, right, Doctor Li," Concubine Yao said softly, with an unquestionable determination in her tone.

“Your family will stay with me.

As long as you complete what you are supposed to do, your family will be well fed and well fed in my chambers."

Doctor Li paused, worry rising in his heart like a tide.

He turned around and looked at Concubine Yao, only to see a hint of cunning and threat in her eyes.

"Okay, you can go down." Concubine Yao waved her hand, signaling Doctor Li to leave.

Doctor Li bowed again and turned to leave. Although his steps were steady, his heart was filled with helplessness and determination.

At this time in the Qin Palace,
