Chapter 235 Just Want to Scare Her
The next day, the autumn morning was sunny, but not as scorching as the summer sun. Occasionally, a cool breeze blew, making people feel very comfortable.
As the sky gradually brightened, the Queen Mother slowly woke up from her coma.
When she slowly opened her eyes, the person she saw was not the familiar court attendant, but Jiang Yimo!
This really surprised the Queen Mother.
"Empress Dowager, you finally woke up! How do you feel? Are you feeling unwell?"
Jiang Yimo asked with concern.
The Queen Mother frowned, gently rubbed her abdomen, and replied: "I still have a little pain in my abdomen, but it is not as severe as last night. Tell me, what did you do to me after I fell asleep last night?"
At this moment, the Queen Mother looked at Jiang Yimo in front of her, and her words still revealed a tough tone.
However, Jiang Yimo did not share the same opinion as the Queen Mother.
Although the Queen Mother's face looked quite kind, there was a hint of sharpness in her eyes - that made sense, after all, the Queen Mother was the one who had survived the palace struggles and ultimately emerged victorious!
But at this moment, in Jiang Yimo's eyes, the empress dowager was just a little old lady who was a little bit arrogant.
She is not afraid of the Queen Mother.
When Jiang Yimo saw the Queen Mother rubbing the wound from the surgery she performed last night, she stopped her with a serious face.
"Your Majesty, please don't move! I took great pains to complete that crucial abdominal surgery for you last night."
"The wound has not yet healed completely. If you continue to rub your abdomen like this, it is likely to cause the wound to tear, and even lead to more serious complications!"
After hearing Jiang Yimo's words, the old queen stopped moving her hands abruptly.
She blinked her eyes, seeming to have no memory of anything Jiang Yimo said.
After a long while, she came back to her senses, frowned and asked, "What surgery? What incision? Little girl, what are you talking about?"
Jiang Yimo looked at the bewildered Queen Mother and patiently explained, "Queen Mother, please don't panic. You had severe abdominal pain last night and your condition is very critical."
"After diagnosis, we found that there is a diseased organ in your abdomen, which looks like a meat ball. In order to save your life, I made a prompt decision and decided to perform surgery to remove it."
After hearing Jiang Yimo's words, the Queen Mother's face turned pale as paper in an instant, and she asked in a trembling voice: "Little girl, you just said... to operate on my stomach? And take out the disease inside?" Her eyes were full of fear and disbelief.
"Then...then my stomach must have been cut open with a big hole. My intestines must have been exposed. Then...how long can I live?"
The old queen became more and more agitated. As she spoke, she hurriedly reached out to untie her clothes, wanting to check the wound on her abdomen.
Her hands were trembling slightly and beads of sweat kept appearing on her forehead. It was obvious that she was extremely uneasy.
She was not afraid of the pain, but was frightened by what Jiang Yimo said. It sounded creepy to say that she was going to have surgery on her belly.
Seeing this, Jiang Yimo hurried forward to support the Queen Mother and comforted her softly, "Queen Mother, please calm down. Please rest assured that the operation was very successful and you will be fine."
"I used the most advanced medical technology to ensure the safety of the operation. Moreover, we have carefully treated and bandaged your wounds after the operation. As long as you take the medicine on time and recuperate, you will recover soon."
Jiang Yimo tried to speak in a gentle yet firm tone, hoping to ease the Queen Mother's panic.
However, as a queen mother living in ancient times, she could only roughly understand the modern terms used by Jiang Yimo to comfort people.
These new words and expressions were completely foreign to the Queen Mother, and only confused her further.
Although Jiang Yimo tried her best to explain, the Queen Mother still could not fully understand the deep meaning due to the historical background and cultural differences.
This made communication between the two somewhat difficult and also caused some trouble for Jiang Yimo.
But Jiang Yimo was not discouraged. She decided to communicate with the Queen Mother in a simpler and clearer way, hoping to help her relieve her inner worries.
The Queen Mother gently lifted her shirt, her eyes revealing a hint of doubt and uneasiness.
She looked down at her belly and found that there seemed to be a thin line on it, as if it had been sewn with needle and thread.
This sudden scene made the Queen Mother feel frightened and a little disgusted.
"Oh my God! You little girl, did you sew up my belly? How could you be so cruel! You sewed my belly as if it were a piece of rag. It looks so ugly that it looks like a hideous and twisted centipede lying there! How bad are your needlework skills?"
The Queen Mother widened her eyes and scolded angrily, but Jiang Yimo could tell from the Queen Mother's eyes that she meant no ill will towards her when she said this.
However, facing the Queen Mother's harsh rebuke and ridicule, Jiang Yimo still didn't want to pay attention to her.
Fortunately, at this moment, Feng Wuhen happened to walk into the palace.
He was originally standing outside the palace gate and heard some of the conversation between Jiang Yimo and the Queen Mother, but he did not hear it clearly.
At this moment, he stepped into the hall and first bowed to the Queen Mother to show his respect.
However, unlike in the past, this time when the Queen Mother saw Feng Wuhen, she did not have a gloomy face as usual, but despite this, the Queen Mother still did not look in a good mood.
"Feng Wuhen, you came at the right time! I have something to ask you. What happened after I fell asleep last night? Tell me everything."
The Queen Mother's voice was majestic, yet also mixed with a slightly questioning tone.
She stared at Feng Wuhen, her eyes flickering, as if she wanted to get a satisfactory answer from him.
"Grandmother, the situation last night was critical! You suddenly had unbearable abdominal pain and even fainted. Just when everyone was at a loss, Miss Jiang stepped forward and displayed her amazing medical skills."
"She first used her exquisite acupuncture skills to quickly stabilize your condition and save your life for the time being. Then, without hesitation, she performed an extremely dangerous operation - she opened your abdomen and completely removed the root cause of the disease that had troubled you for many years and caused you so much suffering..."
Feng Wuhen had a serious expression as he recounted to the Empress Dowager word for word the thrilling events of last night, while also trying his best to make Jiang Yimo's heroic act more vivid and specific.
After hearing what Feng Wuhen said, the old queen's expression gradually softened. In fact, she knew in her heart that it was Jiang Yimo who saved her life, but she just wanted to scare the little girl in front of her.
