Chapter 853 Grandma, the Painful Mei Changsu

In front of Emperor Liang and everyone in the palace, Zhou Chen took his pulse with extra seriousness this time.

After a long time, he let go and gently put the Queen Mother's hand back.

Emperor Liang couldn't wait to ask: "How is the health of the Empress Dowager? Can it be cured?"

In fact, he also knew the physical condition of the Empress Dowager. He might not believe what an imperial doctor said, but if all the imperial doctors said that, it would explain the problem.

He didn't have much hope for Zhou Chen, but he still wanted to know if Zhou Chen could cure her. After all, this was also his grandma.

Zhou Chen did not answer immediately, but had a complicated expression as he was thinking about how to answer.

Emperor Liang was so shrewd that he could see at a glance that Zhou Chen was hesitant to speak, and his expression turned gloomy.

"Tell the truth and I will pardon you."

Zhou Chen then organized his speech and said: "The Queen Mother's physical condition is indeed not very good. Her illness is only one of the reasons. The most important thing is the degeneration of the normal internal organs of the body."

Emperor Liang understood Zhou Chen's meaning and asked coldly: "You mean, the Empress Dowager's death is approaching and there is no medicine or stone to cure her?"

When he said this, Zhou Chen didn't react at all, but everyone else around him turned pale with fear.

Especially Princess Liyang, who recommended Zhou Chen, looked horrified. She recommended Zhou Chen because she wanted to repay Zhou Chen, but if she offended Emperor Liang, the consequences would be really disastrous.

Except for Princess Liyang, no one in the palace cared about Zhou Chen. They were just frightened by Emperor Liang's momentum.

The only person who cared about Zhou Chen the most was Meng Zhi, who was waiting outside the palace. His hearing was amazing and he almost couldn't help but rush in to defend Zhou Chen.

Although the relationship between Zhou Chen and him is not as good as that between Xiao Shu and him, over the past six months, their relationship has also improved by leaps and bounds. It is not as good as Xiao Shu, but it is still much stronger than others, so he is the best here. People who don’t want anything to happen to Zhou Chen.

However, Zhou Chen didn't show any panic at all, but responded very calmly.

"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager's current condition is not hopeless. I can use internal strength combined with medicine to treat the Empress Dowager. However, this method cannot be maintained for a long time, and every two days, I have to personally treat the Empress Dowager. The Queen Mother will treat you once."

When Emperor Liang heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, which meant that there was still hope.

"How long can the Queen Mother last?"

Zhou Chen said in a deep voice: "Please forgive the incompetence of the common people. They can only last for three months at most."

Three months is already the best he can do.

The Pure Yang Technique he practiced was extremely yang and strong, extremely domineering, but also full of vitality. It was an excellent internal breath for treating internal injuries.

He has now practiced the Pure Yang Art to a perfect level. He can use his fingers like an arm, and the therapeutic effect is even greater. With some medicine, he can temporarily help the Empress Dowager to hang on to her life.

In future generations, some people can use money to kill themselves. Although there are no medical conditions like those in later generations, pure Yang internal energy is more effective than many medical devices.

"March?"

Emperor Liang was very surprised. Before, the imperial doctors who treated the Empress Dowager said that the Empress Dowager would not be able to survive for a few days, half a month at most. Now Zhou Chen said that she could last for three months, which was better than all the imperial doctors.

"really?"

"Your Majesty, I promise with my life that as long as there are no accidents along the way and you do as I ask, there will be no problem."

Emperor Liang immediately said: "Okay, as you said, as long as you can keep the Empress Dowager alive for another three months, I will reward you greatly."

"The common people cannot cure the Empress Dowager, so they dare not accept it."

"I am the emperor, and I keep my promise. As long as you do well, I will reward you, and you will continue."

What else could Zhou Chen say, he could only pretend to be grateful and respond: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Emperor Liang remembered Zhou Chen's words just now and asked, "Did you just say that you should treat the Empress Dowager every two days?"

"Yes, I dare not hide it from Your Majesty. This kind of treatment method can only be carried out based on the internal strength of the grassroots. Therefore, the treatment method is different from that of ordinary doctors. It must be done by the grassroots themselves."

"Well, the Empress Dowager lives in the palace and cannot go out at will, so you need to come to the inner palace once every two days, Gao Zhan."

The first father-in-law of Langya Bang, Gao Zhan, immediately bowed and responded: "I'm here, old slave."

"You prepare a token for him so that he can enter and leave the palace."

"Old slave, I obey."

After giving instructions to Gao Zhan, Emperor Liang asked again: "Then the treatment will start today?"

Zhou Chen said: "Your Majesty, the common people need to cooperate with medicinal materials for treatment. I'm afraid it's too late today. I can use my internal strength to help the Queen Mother stabilize her heart later. Once the medicinal materials are prepared tomorrow, we can start treatment."

Emperor Liang nodded and said: "Whatever medicinal materials you need, just ask, Gao Zhan, arrange for someone to follow Mr. Chen. No matter what his request is, we will do your best to meet it."

"Old slave, I obey." Gao Zhan was still respectful.

Zhou Chen said with some hesitation: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother's physical condition is relatively poor. When I use internal power to treat, I need to be quiet and cautious without making any mistakes, so I cannot allow too many people to be present, just in case..."

Emperor Liang had no doubts. He had never practiced kung fu, but he also knew the existence of internal power, and internal power treatment did come with certain risks.

"The Queen Mother cannot live without someone to serve her. How about leaving two maids?"

"Thank you for your understanding, Your Majesty."

After the discussion, Emperor Liang stopped delaying and waved to everyone in the hall.

"It's gone, let's go. Don't come here anymore if you have nothing to do."

Emperor Liang had already spoken, and no one dared to object. Everyone left the palace obediently. Only Concubine Jing looked at Zhou Chen curiously before leaving.

After everyone left, Zhou Chen began to treat the Queen Mother. After half an hour, the Queen Mother's face looked red, and Zhou Chen stopped.

He wiped the sweat from his head and used his inner strength to help the Empress Dowager heal. It was even more troublesome than when treating Mei Changsu, because the Empress Dowager's body was exhausted and was much worse than Mei Changsu's body.

The Empress Dowager did not wake up, and the next matter was left to the maids in the Empress Dowager's palace, while he walked out of the palace.

As soon as he left the palace, Zhou Chen saw Gao Zhan with a kind face.

"Mr. Chen."

"Eunuch Gao."

Gao Zhan said with a smile: "It seems that Mr. Chen's treatment is going very well. This is the token His Majesty gave you. With this token, you can enter and exit the palace at any time."

Zhou Chen took the token handed over by Gao Zhan and said gratefully, "I'm sorry to bother you, Eunuch Gao."

"They are all working for His Majesty and the Queen Mother. It is not troublesome at all. Mr. Chen, on the other hand, is really admirable for his superb medical skills."

Hearing Gao Zhan's temptation, Zhou Chen smiled and said: "Eunuch Gao is ridiculous. I only know a little bit about folk medicine, but I can't be called superb medical skills. By the way, I will come to diagnose and treat the Empress Dowager tomorrow. I need it." I need to trouble Eunuch Gao for some medicinal materials."

Gao Zhan called the little eunuch next to him and asked him to write down the medicinal materials Zhou Chen needed, and then arranged for someone to send Zhou Chen away from the palace.

It is said that Zhou Chen can enter and leave the palace at will, but he will definitely not let Zhou Chen wander around at will. Someone needs to guide him in and out.

After Zhou Chen left, Gao Zhan did not leave the palace of the Empress Dowager immediately. Instead, he asked the imperial doctor to call the imperial doctor to check the condition of the Empress Dowager.

After confirming that the Empress Dowager had not deteriorated but had improved, she was completely relieved and went to report to Emperor Liang.

Zhou Chen left the palace and did not go home directly. Instead, he went around in a circle to make sure no one was following him before he set off for the Su Mansion.

Arriving at Mei Changsu's residence, Zhou Chen discovered that besides Mei Changsu, there was another person, who turned out to be Meng Zhi.

"Xiaochen, Brother Meng told me about my great-grandma."

As soon as Mei Changsu saw Zhou Chen, he said eagerly: "My great-grandmother is the one who loves us the most. She is also the one who can recognize us at a glance. No matter what, you must do your best to save my great-grandmother. Count me." I beg you."

Zhou Chen said: "You don't need to tell me, I know what to do, but I will tell you the truth, my great-grandmother's situation is very bad, and now she has almost reached the point where her oil is exhausted. Even if I use my pure Yang inner strength to cooperate with some The precious medicinal materials can keep my grandma alive, but it is still very difficult. It will take up to three months..."

Mei Changsu understood what Zhou Chen meant, and his eyes suddenly turned red.

His closest relatives are no longer there. Although he still has some relatives, they are either enemies or they don't know him. His great-grandmother can be said to be his closest elder in the world.

"Even if it's only three months, Xiaochen, you have to settle for her."

Zhou Chen sighed: "Of course I will try my best, but letting her live for three more months may not be a good thing. While a person is alive, his body suffers."

Mei Changsu remained silent. He also understood this truth, but even if there was only a glimmer of hope, he still wanted to keep his great-grandmother alive.

"From now on, I will go to the palace every two days. Xiao Shu, if you want to see Grandma, I can find a way to do it."

Mei Changsu was interested, but after thinking for a while, he still shook his head and refused.

"Forget it, so what if I see you? If I go, it will arouse suspicion. Forget it, I will pray for my great-grandma here every day."

Zhou Chen comforted: "You know in your heart that my great-grandmother has died. She has lived a more wonderful life than most people in the world. What's more, she was able to see you and me before she left. Even if she It’s confusing, but it’s also a comfort.”

Mei Changsu shed tears silently: "Yes, as long as my great-grandmother is happy."

Meng Zhi couldn't say anything at all. Unlike Zhou Chen and Mei Changsu, he had no blood relationship with the Empress Dowager, let alone any feelings.

Early the next morning, Zhou Chen went to the palace and began to treat the Empress Dowager.

By this time, the Empress Dowager was in a comatose state for almost ten of the twelve hours a day. Even if she woke up, she was basically in a daze and incoherent, and she was rarely awake.

A few days passed by, and under Zhou Chen's treatment, the Empress Dowager looked much better than the previous days, and she spent more time awake.

It's just that the symptoms of Alzheimer's disease have not changed, and she basically doesn't recognize people anymore. However, every time Zhou Chen goes there, she is very happy and screams "Xiao Chen Xiao Chen."

Because the Empress Dowager had been confused for many years, and Zhou Chen's alias was Chen, others did not suspect anything. They were more happy that the Empress Dowager was energetic.

On this day, Zhou Chen did not go to the palace, but took Gong Yu for a walk outside. However, they took a carriage when they went out and did not get off.

He originally wanted to take Gong Yu out of the city to play, but now that he had to treat the Empress Dowager, Emperor Liang would definitely send someone to keep an eye on him, so in order not to arouse suspicion, he did not plan to go out of the city and only walked around the city.

They didn't return to the mansion until the next evening. He was about to take Gong Yu back to his room to rest, but suddenly his ears twitched and he turned to look at the courtyard wall in front of him, only to see a figure appearing on the courtyard wall.

"Fei Liu, why are you here?"

Fei Liu jumped in front of Zhou Chen, looking very anxious, and shouted: "Brother Su, Brother Su."

Seeing Fei Liu's eager look, Zhou Chen frowned and asked, "What's wrong with Xiao Shu?"

Fei Liu scratched his head anxiously, not knowing how to answer. Seeing this, Zhou Chen stopped asking and said to Gong Yu, "I'll go see Xiao Shu first. You go back to the room and rest."

Gong Yu nodded and said, "Okay."

Zhou Chen didn't waste any time and pulled Fei Liu away quickly.

As soon as they arrived at Su Mansion, Li Gang and Zhen Ping greeted them.

"Sir, you are here."

"What's wrong with him, Xiao Shu?"

Li Gang said: "Sect Master went to the Heavenly Prison today. When he came back, he locked himself up and didn't let anyone in. We were worried, but we didn't dare to go in, so we asked Fei Liu to find you."

Zhen Ping also said anxiously: "Sir, please go in quickly to persuade the sect master."

"okay, I get it."

Zhou Chen walked directly into Mei Changsu's room. Li Gang and Zhen Ping did not dare to go in, but they both stretched their heads to hear what was going on inside.

Entering the room, Zhou Chen saw Mei Changsu's lonely back. He was sitting there alone, making no sound, as if he had blended into the environment.

Zhou Chen came and sat down next to him, and Mei Changsu turned around: "I knew that no one else would come in like this except you."

"Fei Liu came to me. I thought you had a cold attack and couldn't control it. I didn't expect you to be alone here in a daze. It made me worry in vain."

"I went to the Tianlao today and met Xie Yu, as well as the Hanzihao cell where Brother Qi Wang committed suicide."

"So you've become like this? Do you think Lin Shuai and Prince Qi want to see you like this? After knowing the truth, you should cheer up more instead of being as decadent as you are now."

Mei Changsu sighed faintly: "You are right, I shouldn't be decadent, but my heart is really uncomfortable, very uncomfortable."

As he spoke, he bent over in pain with a sad expression.

Zhou Chen stretched out his hand and patted his back gently, and advised: "Think more about good things. At least now we have defeated Xie Yu and supported Prince Jing. This is a good start. Our victory is far away." It’s not far away.”

"Yeah, not far, not far."

Mei Changsu's eyes were deep, as if he had seen that day coming.

After a long time, Mei Changsu regained his normal calmness.

"Today I specially asked Jingyan and Sister Dong to go to the Heavenly Prison to observe. Jingyan knows the truth. He will definitely not be able to sit still. He will probably come through the secret passage soon. You should leave first."

"Well, it's okay for me to leave, but don't do what you did before. I have to treat my great-grandma now, so I can't run to you often."

"I know, don't worry, treating your great-grandmother is your first priority now."

After talking to Mei Changsu, Zhou Chen did not stay, but quickly left Su's house.
