The emperor tells Lingxue that he needs to treat the meridian, which is the area around the brain, and wait for the memory of the boy to return. He also tells him that he must take care of his brother, whom he has not seen for a long time. He tells him to send the boy back to rest, and then he tells him about the need for some medicinal pills. He says that some of them are running low on stock, so they need to make some more. He then tells her to open her mouth and eat the soup that he has prepared for her. She says that she can eat it herself, and that she also wants some of the medicine. She then tells the emperor to stop bothering her, saying that she needs to finish refining her medicine.
