Chapter 73 Sudden Illness
The carriage drove smoothly all the way and soon arrived at Donghua Gate.
"Is the palace ready?"
Ji Weiyu nodded: "I sent someone to inform my father early in the morning. Whether the arrangement is good or not depends on your courage."
Anyway, they only do what they can. They have dealt with what should be dealt with and blocked what should be blocked. If the Queen Mother cannot be overthrown today, then my father will probably not have a second chance in this life.
Yan Qing hummed and said nothing more.
Ji Weiyu got off the carriage and casually lifted the curtain for Yan Qing. The original casual action surprised the imperial guards guarding the gate.
The King of Phoenix actually opened the curtain for others? Who is so proud?
Yan Qing got off the carriage, with the veil on, covering his overly outstanding face, and entered Donghua Gate with Ji Weiyu.
"Your Highness the Phoenix King." Several soldiers from the Cavalry Battalion came quickly and bowed. "Your Highness the Ming King ordered several of us to escort the Phoenix King."
Ji Weiyu nodded: "Where is the Ming King?"
"Your Highness the Ming King has gone to the Imperial Study." The soldier from the Cavalry Battalion replied, "The Emperor left the court early today, and will know later that the Phoenix King has entered the Ren'an Palace."
Ji Weiyu nodded: "In that case, I am relieved."
Yan Qing looked around casually. The palace was well guarded, with a sentry every three steps and a guard every five steps. The Royal Guards standing on the palace road were dressed in the same uniform. They should all be arranged by the Ming King.
"Divine Doctor Yan." Ji Weiyu turned to look at Yan Qing, "Let's go."
Yan Qing nodded and went to the Ren'an Palace with Ji Weiyu.
The Queen Mother had just finished breakfast and was sitting in the palace drinking tea when Meng Changqing hurried in to report: "Queen Mother, the eldest princess is right, the Phoenix King is here!"
"Really?" The Queen Mother raised her eyes, "He came by himself?"
Meng Changqing hurriedly said: "There is also a woman, it should be the divine doctor Yan."
The Queen Mother heard this, her expression was as cold as frost, "It's good to come."
Originally thought that he would come last night, she had already set up a trap, but no one came after waiting for a long time, and the Queen Mother was very upset.
I didn't expect him to come this morning.
"Could it be that they think it's safer during the day than at night?" The Queen Mother sneered.
Meng Changqing smiled and said, "That's what I think."
"Since they're here," the queen mother's eyes flashed with a cold light, thinking of the frustrations she had suffered in recent days, her mood was extremely bad, "don't let them go."
"I understand."
The queen mother casually scraped the edge of the cup with the tea lid, thinking that the emperor had confiscated the loyal and righteous mansion and wanted to sentence him to death in the autumn for treason, and she was furious.
She wanted to see how the emperor would choose after she took Ji Weiyu, the son of God, as a bargaining chip.
"It seems that the queen mother already knows that we are here." Ji Weiyu had a deep smile on his lips, looking at the direction of Ren'an Palace from a distance, "Someone came out to greet us."
The palace gate was opened, and a medium-sized and slightly fat nanny walked out, and as expected, the nanny turned around and walked towards Ji Weiyu.
Ji Weiyu narrowed his eyes, "This is to catch the turtle in the jar."
Yan Qing said calmly: "Killing the turtle in the jar is more appropriate."
"With the Queen Mother's current mood, she really wants to chop us into pieces immediately." Ji Weiyu nodded, and then corrected in a low voice, "But we are not turtles. Your Highness is a phoenix soaring in the sky, and I am the son of God respected by everyone. Killing the turtle in the jar will not kill us."
Yan Qing's mouth twitched unnoticeably: "You are right."
As soon as this sentence fell, the nanny had already arrived.
"Your Highness the Phoenix King." The nanny knelt down and saluted perfunctorily to Ji Weiyu, then turned to look at Yan Qing, "Are you the doctor who detoxified His Highness the Phoenix King?"
Yan Qing hummed.
"You should show your true face when you enter the palace, especially when you go to see the Queen Mother." The nanny said coldly, "Even if the doctor doesn't know the rules, His Royal Highness the Phoenix King should give him some advice."
Ji Weiyu said in a light voice: "Divine Doctor Yan is my savior, and I respect her decision."
The nanny frowned: "But this is in the palace, not in the Phoenix King's Mansion."
"For me, it's the same." Ji Weiyu said, "No matter where you go, Doctor Yan is my savior, and no one can change this."
The nanny choked, and her face became more and more ugly, but she didn't dare to let the Queen Mother wait too long. She thought to herself that since he was so unruly, she would let the Queen Mother deal with him later and see how long he could be stubborn.
So she suppressed her anger a little and said respectfully: "The Queen Mother knows that the poison in the Phoenix King's body has been cured, and she also knows that it is the credit of Doctor Yan. She is very happy. When she heard that the two of you came to pay her respects, she specially ordered this old servant to come out to greet you."
"Since you are here to greet you on the Queen Mother's orders, you just need to do your part." Yan Qing said calmly, "It should not be your responsibility to teach the Phoenix King a lesson."
The nanny's face turned green: "You-"
"Lead the way." Ji Weiyu said coldly, ignoring her angry face, "If you keep the Queen Mother waiting for a long time, be careful that she will peel your skin."
The nanny suppressed her dissatisfaction and turned to walk towards Ren'an Palace.
Arriving at Ren'an Palace, Yan Qing stood outside the red lacquer palace gate and said calmly: "Please ask this nanny to go in first and pay respects to the Queen Mother on behalf of His Royal Highness the Son of God, and by the way, ask if the Queen Mother is feeling unwell."
"What do you mean?" The nanny's face sank, and she suddenly turned her head to look at her, "Are you cursing the Queen Mother?"
"Just go and ask." Yan Qing's voice was indifferent. Although he was wearing a curtain, he faintly revealed a pressure that could not be ignored. "If the Queen Mother is not in good health, since I am here as a doctor, I can also help the Queen Mother." Please take a pulse.”
Mammy said coldly: "Even if the Queen Mother is not in good health, she has a medical girl by her side to take care of her. There is no need for you, a mountain doctor, to do anything."
"I insist." Yan Qing looked at her calmly, "If you don't go in and ask, His Highness the Son of God and I will not go in."
Mammy's face instantly turned ugly, and she secretly thought that a female doctor dared to be so arrogant and put on airs in front of the Queen Mother.
But thinking about this person's fate today, Grandma lost her anger instantly. What's there to be angry about?
After all, she is a dying person, so what if she has medical skills and is good at detoxifying?
Can the enemy defeat thousands of arrows?
Mammy turned around and walked through the palace gate, heading towards the Queen Mother's palace. Yan Qing and Ji Weiyu were waiting outside, looking particularly patient.
Ji Weiyu looked up at the high palace wall, "If the calculation goes wrong, will we run away?"
"There is no way the calculation was wrong." Yan Qing looked at his fingertips, "I have already sensed their existence."
Ji Weiyu nodded slowly and said nothing more about His Highness's power, because he knew where Yan Qing came from with this poison technique.
Even now, when I think about it, I still feel extremely distressed.
"The Queen Mother is cruel and ruthless. During those years when she was in power, countless lives were lost at her hands." Ji Weiyu's eyes were cold and she looked towards the main hall of Ren'an Palace. "This time, she should be allowed to taste the pain."
Yan Qing said nothing and stared at his fingertips quietly, not knowing what he was thinking.
Sure enough, not long after, the nanny who had just been lukewarm ran out in a hurry, her voice filled with fear and anxiety: "Quick! Get in quickly! The Queen Mother is unwell——"
Yan Qing smiled lightly: "Didn't Mammy just say that there is a medical woman by the Queen Mother's side?"
Mammy was speechless immediately, and then looked at Ji Weiyu in panic, and said in a strong tone: "Your Highness, the Queen Mother, the phoenix body of the Queen Mother is in violation of the rules. Please let Dr. Yan go in and give the Queen Mother a look."
Ji Weiyu frowned: "Isn't there a medical girl by the Queen Mother's side? Mother, let the medical girls show it to the Queen Mother first, in case the Queen Mother does not trust Dr. Yan."
Grandma's face turned pale with anxiety: "The medical girls are at a loss what to do, they don't even know what's going on!"
Ji Weiyu frowned: "Really?"
"Divine Doctor Yan." Mammy turned to look at Yan Qing, with a tone that said she had to compromise, "Please go in quickly and cure the Queen Mother. I will definitely reward you with a lot of money."
Ji Weiyu frowned: "Doctor Yan is not interested in your rewards."
Grandma got angry: "Son of God——"
"Kneel down."
"W-what?" Mammy looked at him in disbelief, "What did His Highness the Son of God say?"
