Chapter 1119_1

After much fuss, the Empress Dowager finally lay back on her phoenix bed.

The room was crowded with people: the Emperor, the Empress, a few princes and their princesses, and Prince An's family were all present.

No one spoke, quietly waiting for the imperial doctor to examine the pulse.

The Empress Dowager cried out in pain lying on the bed, "Oh, it hurts! What if my foot is broken?! Why does it hurt so much?!"

Xiao'er glanced at the exaggerated expression of the Empress Dowager, feeling that her cries of pain were somewhat akin to the screams of a woman in labor.

However, given her vigorous screaming, it seemed her body didn't have any major problems. Perhaps she had a minor bone fracture because her bones were quite fragile due to her age.

The on-duty doctors from the Imperial Hospital were present. The director carefully measured her pulse over and over, then carefully examined the Empress Dowager's foot.
