The Queen Eleanor left in a rage. Nanny Sun and Fengyan kept persuading her along the way: "The Emperor said it without meaning it. He was just annoyed by the memorials from the court officials these days, and he took his anger out on the Queen Eleanor without realizing it. The Queen Eleanor and the Emperor are mother and son, so there is nothing she doesn't know, Queen Eleanor..."
"No need to say more." The Queen Eleanor felt a throbbing pain on her head. "I thought I loved him in vain... He has never been pleasing to me, and now he is disobeying me in public... I never counted on him!"
Seeing that the Queen Eleanor looked unhappy, Nanny Sun dared not persuade her any further. She shook her head and said, "Anger is harmful to your health. Your Majesty, please don't be too hard on yourself...Does your Majesty want to summon the imperial physician?"
"No need. The imperial physician might think I am pretending!" The empress dowager felt upset and her eyes turned red. She took a deep breath and rubbed her brows, forcing herself to suppress the tears in her eyes. "It's not a big deal. Just go back and take a few chest-opening and gas-relieving pills and you'll be fine."
Nanny Sun knew that the Queen Eleanor was stubborn, so she had no choice but to nod: "Yes."
