In the imperial palace, Pei Huaian, carrying instruments, arrived at the imperial palace.
By this time, the Emperor had already awakened. He had long heard of Shao He's medical achievements, especially her frostbite ointment and Cold Effervescent Powder. What impressed him the most was Pei Siyang.
"How on earth did you manage to do these things? And can prosthetics really allow anyone to stand up?"
The Emperor could hardly believe that she, a mere woman, could accomplish so many things that even men could not, perhaps even surpassing his own Imperial Medical Bureau's capabilities in comparison to Shao He alone.
"Your Majesty honors me too highly. I am merely a commoner girl doing my best to heal the sick."
The Emperor saw that she was floating on air from the compliments and yet not arrogant but very humble, which pleased him even more.
