A fine banquet had to end prematurely because of the incident, and the ministers all dispersed one after another.
After dismissing the attendants, the Empress Dowager turned her head, looking worriedly at Shao He as she asked, "Now that the surgery room is destroyed, can the surgery still be carried out on schedule?"
"Empress Dowager, please rest assured, the Emperor's surgery will not be delayed, although it might be more difficult and dangerous."
If there is no sterile surgery room, the risk of infection will increase. A slight mistake could lead to an infection of the Emperor's wound, which is a worrying thought,
but now that it has come to this, it's simply too late to build another sterile surgery room.
"Then what is your level of confidence?" the Empress Dowager asked nervously, clutching her prayer beads tightly.
"I will do my utmost," answered Doctor Shao, without giving a specific level of confidence.
In such circumstances, she could not guarantee anything.
