In her past life, her father was murdered, her mother was imprisoned, her brother was violated, and her son had his heart gouged out. Su Xuening feigned madness her entire life but still couldn'...
Upon hearing this, Yuan Xian frowned suddenly and opened his mouth to curse again.
Helian Rong, however, had already looked at another imperial physician, whose forehead was almost covered in cold sweat, but he could only answer with a stiff upper lip: "Indeed, there is still one month left."
Helian Rong glanced at one of the imperial physicians, who replied, "More than a month."
Only after all the imperial physicians present had answered did Helian Rong collapse into his large pillow, lost in thought as if lifeless.
Since all the imperial physicians gave the same answer, does he really have only one month left?
Unable to bear seeing Helian Rong like this, Yuan Xian glared at the imperial physicians and roared, "If you dare to spout nonsense again, the Emperor will chop off your heads! Get out of here now!"
The imperial physicians were already terrified, so when Yuan Xian told them to get lost, they left as if relieved.
After the imperial physicians left, Yuan Xian stepped forward to comfort Helian Rong: "His Majesty has never trusted these people, so why should you listen to their words? The young princess has taken such good care of your health, you should believe her. If she says you have three years left to live, then you have three years left to live. You must not think about those imperial physicians!"
I don't know what's wrong with the Emperor today? He suddenly summoned all those imperial physicians.
And those imperial physicians too! The Emperor's health was clearly better than before, and was gradually improving, yet they claimed that the Emperor only had one month to live. That was utter nonsense and utter rubbish!
At this moment, Helian Rong's mind was filled with the words "more than a month" from the imperial physicians, and he had no other thoughts.
After a long pause, Helian Rong looked at Yuan Xian again: "Go outside the palace and find two more doctors."
"Your Majesty!" Seeing that Helian Rong still believed in those imperial physicians, Yuan Xian was extremely anxious, but Helian Rong wouldn't listen to him at all and just glared at him.
Yuan Xian had no choice but to leave again and send the eunuch outside the palace to find a doctor.
It was easy to find two doctors outside the palace, so in no time two doctors who ran clinics in the capital were brought into the palace.
"This humble subject pays respects to Your Majesty." The two men had never seen such a scene before. When they were brought before Helian Rong, their legs went weak, and they knelt down straight down.
Helian Rong didn't want to waste any time, so he directly asked them to come forward and check his pulse.
The two men stepped forward cautiously to take Helian Rong's pulse.
The moment the doctor touched Helian Rong's pulse, he trembled like a leaf.
Helian Rong glared at him, and he tried his best to restrain himself and carefully took Helian Rong's pulse.
After one doctor finished taking Helian Rong's pulse, another doctor stepped forward to take his pulse. When he finally felt Helian Rong's pulse, he understood why the doctor across the hall, Dr. Wang, was trembling so badly; he wanted to tremble too.
After the two men finished their examination, Helian Rong asked them the same question again: "How much time do I have left?"
The two were so frightened that they immediately fell to the ground, trembling as they stammered, "There...there's still...one more month..."
Helian Rong suddenly closed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "You are not allowed to tell anyone about what happened today, or your whole family will be beheaded!"
The two men were terrified upon hearing this and hurriedly said, "We have never entered the palace today, nor have we ever taken His Majesty's pulse. We know nothing!"
Helian Rong waved to them, and the two were led away by Yuan Xian.
Once outside, Yuanxian warned them again: "Remember the Emperor's words, or your whole family will lose their heads."
The two men nodded repeatedly in fright: "We commoners know nothing."
Yuan Xian gave the eunuch a wink, and the eunuch immediately took the two away.
Yuan Xian watched the two doctors' retreating figures, feeling troubled.
What exactly happened?
If the words of those imperial physicians are unreliable, then how come these two doctors were able to find out that the emperor only has one month to live?
These two were just randomly chosen from outside the palace; they couldn't have been bribed!
Moreover, since the doctor was brought from the capital, his medical skills should be quite good!
Why did they all find out that the emperor only had one month to live, but the little princess said that the emperor could live for another three years?
Yuan Xian returned to the inner palace with a heavy heart, only to find Helian Rong sitting on the bed in a daze.
Yuan Xian quickly stepped forward and advised, "Your Majesty, the young princess would not lie to you. She said you could live for three more years, so you definitely can live for another three years. Please don't overthink it!"
When the two imperial physicians told him he only had a month to live, Helian Rong was indeed in a state of turmoil. But when so many imperial physicians and this doctor outside the palace said he only had a month to live, he felt calm.
Helian Rong looked at Yuan Xian and said with a smile, "I know she wouldn't lie to me. I originally only had one month to live, but her medical skills have saved me for three years!"
The girl had absolutely no reason to lie to him; he could tell that she was genuinely trying to heal him.
Moreover, he could feel it himself. After the girl administered acupuncture twice, his internal organs felt extremely comfortable, and he could feel that his body was clearly improving.
This was a feeling he had never experienced with any of the imperial physicians before, which meant that the girl's medical skills were definitely superior to those of the imperial physicians.
Since the imperial physicians and doctors have given completely different results than the girl, the explanation is that the girl's medical skills are superior and she can help him extend his lifespan.
Yuan Xian suddenly realized: "So that's how it is."
He had been saying that the emperor always slept very well after the young princess performed acupuncture on him. The young princess's medical skills were clearly so amazing, so why did the imperial physicians give completely different accounts from her?
So that's how it is!
"Then you don't need to worry at all. Since the young princess said you can live for another three years, she will definitely find a way to let you live for three more years."
Yuan Xian now completely and utterly believes only the words of that young princess; he neither wants to listen to nor believes the words of other quack doctors.
Helian Rong nodded silently.
Indeed, since that girl said he could live for three years, then he still has three years left.
Three years is a good time. Before, he probably didn't care how much longer he could live. Everything was just to pave the way for Ci'er.
But now that he has that girl, and An'er and Xiao Bao, life seems to have hope again. Three years is enough for him to enjoy the happiness of being surrounded by his children and grandchildren!
Yuan Xian frowned as if he had thought of something and said, "Your Majesty, now that all the imperial physicians know about your condition, should we send a message to tell them not to spread the word?"
Those imperial physicians were not trusted by the emperor to begin with, and I'm afraid many of them were actually working for the three princes.
Now that the imperial physicians know about the Emperor's condition, if they don't disclose it, the three princes will surely find out about the Emperor's condition very soon.
If they knew that the Emperor only had one month left to live, who knows what outrageous things they would do!
