Chapter 324: Apologize
After these words, Concubine Luo's face changed drastically, and she said in a crying voice: "Your Majesty, if you really think that Niu Niu has a problem, you don't have to drive her out of the palace. I am not afraid of bad luck. I am willing to raise Niu Niu for a period of time. Please be merciful to Your Majesty."
Concubine Li said directly: "Concubine Luo, Your Majesty's golden words and jade words, how can you change them with just a few words?"
Although Concubine Luo's position is much lower than that of the Concubine, and she has been punished by the Concubine, she still argues for Niu Niu at this time: "Your Majesty, I can move to another palace. I am willing to take Niu Niu to live in the most remote corner of the palace..."
Concubine Luo took the initiative to say this, and the sacrifice she made can be imagined.
Even the emperor looked at her in surprise at this time.
And Niu Niu, who was at the center of the storm, ran to the Queen Mother with her short legs and grabbed the Queen Mother's hand.
Looking at the deep affection between the grandparents and grandchildren, the emperor couldn't help but want to tilt the scale in his heart again
"Your Majesty, the golden words and jade words, how can you allow them to be so presumptuous?" The imperial concubine said softly.
The emperor sighed and was about to give orders to others to take Niu Niu away.
Unexpectedly, Niu Niu turned around and ran over, standing in front of the emperor: "Uncle Emperor, if you want to send me out of the palace, I will leave the palace, but can you ask Doctor Yan, he is a miracle doctor, good at treating various difficult and complicated diseases..."
The emperor looked at Niu Niu, who was obviously in danger now, but her eyes were still full of pure concern for the empress dowager.
"Is it Doctor Yan from Baiyun Town?" the emperor asked.
The emperor was well-informed and naturally knew that Doctor Yan lived in Baiyun Town after retiring from the Imperial Hospital.
Niu Niu nodded vigorously and said, "In my heart, Doctor Yan is the most powerful doctor, and he will definitely be able to cure the empress dowager."
The emperor looked at Doctor Li on the side and said, "This is the deputy judge of the Imperial Hospital."
The implication was that Doctor Li was authoritative enough.
But Niuniu tilted her head and asked, "Is the result of the vice-president's pulse diagnosis correct?"
The emperor was stunned when he heard this.
Lady Luo suddenly seemed to think of something and said to the emperor, "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother has a phoenix body, and now she suddenly fell ill. To show your seriousness, I ask Your Majesty to summon all the doctors in the Imperial Hospital for a consultation. The cause will definitely be found out!"
A trace of panic flashed across Concubine Li's eyes.
Even Doctor Li had a guilty look on his face, and then said: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother's condition is not serious. I will give her two injections and she will wake up..."
Lady Luo suddenly said: "Doctor Li, why do you want to stop the doctors from the Imperial Hospital from consulting?"
Doctor Li immediately said: "My lady, I have been practicing medicine for decades and have dealt with countless difficult and complicated diseases. The Queen Mother is obviously like this because of her age. How can it be as serious as you say?"
Lady Luo said: "I have elderly people in my family. Even if the elderly are weak, it is impossible for them to beat their legs like this! There must be something hidden in it!"
She just said it casually, but she didn't expect that it would be a lucky coincidence.
Doctor Li looked even more guilty.
Lady Luo said again: "Your Majesty, even if the Empress Dowager is only slightly ill, it is imperative to summon all the imperial doctors for consultation and to find out clearly."
The emperor pondered for a moment and said: "Okay, Qian Rongsheng, you go to the Imperial Hospital in person for a consultation."
Qian Rongsheng is the chief eunuch around the emperor. The emperor asked him to come forward, and this matter is as sure as a done deal.
The imperial concubine looked at the imperial doctor Li, who lowered his head and did not look at her at all.
Whether the imperial concubine is willing or not, the imperial doctor consultation cannot be stopped.
Qian Rongsheng quickly led the imperial doctors into Shoukang Palace.
The director of the Imperial Hospital took leave at home today. The other people in the Imperial Hospital already knew the judgment of the deputy director Li. After taking the pulse at this time, their faces were different.
"How is it?" The emperor asked in a deep voice.
At this point, if the emperor still can't see the abnormality, then he doesn't need to sit on the dragon throne.
Among the imperial doctors, those with less medical skills have already spoken up, and their pulse diagnosis results are similar to those of Imperial Doctor Li.
However, there are still several people who have not spoken up.
"Do you think so too?" The emperor asked the few who had not spoken up.
Those people looked at each other.
What they are worried about now is that they don't want to offend Imperial Doctor Li. Everyone knows that Imperial Doctor Li has always been valued by the Queen Mother.
But there are also people who are not afraid of Imperial Doctor Li.
Imperial Doctor Liu took the initiative to say: "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother's illness, others say that it is because the Queen Mother is weak and has excessive actions, but I have a different idea."
"The Queen Mother, she is poisoned!"
Imperial Doctor Liu's words are shocking, and he directly scared everyone present to choke.
Concubine Li even said, "Ridiculous! The Empress Dowager is a precious body, who in the palace dares to murder her?"
Liu Taiyi is in his forties. He had been suppressed in the Imperial Hospital because he had offended Li Taiyi in the early years. He finally caught the opportunity of Li Taiyi's misjudgment, so he naturally had to make things clear.
"Your Majesty, my diagnosis is definitely not wrong. The Empress Dowager was given a chronic poison. If it weren't for the excessive action today, the acupuncture points on her legs were accidentally hit by this little girl, causing the toxicity in her body to break out early. Could it be such an accident? I'm afraid it would be difficult to diagnose this matter." Liu Taiyi still looked neither humble nor arrogant.
The emperor's face was gloomy at this time, and he asked, "Are you sure you can remove the chronic poison in the Empress Dowager's body?"
Dr. Liu said: "Your Majesty should have heard the story about illnesses being treated as taboo. Your Majesty is not yet terminally ill and can still be cured. If you leave her alone and treat her as a common illness, after a while, you may just ignore the medicine."
When the emperor heard this, he looked at everyone present with a scrutinizing gaze, and finally fell on Dr. Li.
"Mr. Li, do you have anything else to say about the Queen Mother's illness?" the emperor asked.
Now that we have reached this point, Dr. Li naturally has no choice but to go to the dark side and make a death struggle: "Your Majesty, no matter how hard I diagnose, I can't diagnose that the Queen Mother has been poisoned. Dr. Liu and the old minister have always had a quarrel, and the old minister didn't know it. He even dared to use the Queen Mother’s illness as a raft!”
The two of them each held their own opinions, and the others were silent at this time, and there was a stalemate.
The emperor glanced at Qian Rongsheng next to him and said: "Stop the news and invite all the old doctors from the capital who have reached official positions. Don't forget the old doctor Yan from Baiyun Town."
The entire Shoukang Palace was surrounded by guards, and no one could go out. Concubine Li's face suddenly showed a look of anxiety.
Niu Niu seemed unaware of all this. She was lying beside the Queen Mother's bed, holding the Queen Mother's hand. The words of her prayer came to her lips and she suddenly swallowed them.
Zhang Yuniang had taught her so many times that until the point of no return, Niu Niu did not dare to make a wish casually anymore.
When the emperor turned around, he saw the pitiful look of the little girl. Thinking of what he had just said about sending the person away, he wanted to apologize, but the words came to his lips but it was not easy to say them.
Concubine Li on the side suddenly said: "Your Majesty, it has been noisy today and you are tired. It is better for me to let my concubine take care of the Queen Mother."
